Overriding the Heaven

One of the reasons was that the ten or so cultivators from the palace had stopped him.    

However, the most important reason was still the mutual suspicion between the cultivators.    

When they saw that they had no hope, what they could do was naturally to make the cultivators that tried their best in the end fall short.    

So, imperceptibly, this sort of jealousy that couldn't bear to see others in a better mood than himself helped the dozen or so cultivators from the Prince's Mansion complete the final act of stopping them.    

With a "hu" sound, the last crack in the tunnel turned into a white line and disappeared.    

The scene of the Blacksoul City immediately disappeared from everyone's eyes.    

At this moment, aside from the huge stone tablet with the words' Immortal Ascension Stage 'written on it, the only other thing that stood in front of everyone was the lowest flight of stairs.    

"This is the last road." Chu Yan raised his head, and looked towards the Great Prefecture Palace at the end of the stairs, and muttered.    

At this moment, everyone raised their heads.    

The palace did not give off a feeling of being out of reach.    

Although it was very far, judging by the distance, it was only a few thousand steps.    

This distance might be a test for an ordinary person.    

But to cultivators, this distance and height really were nothing.    

At this time, other than Chu Yan, Lin Miaoran and the others who were at the beginning, the rest of the people who were gathered on the Immortal Seeking Staircase had more people than expected: Puyang Yi, Kong Ci, Kong Yu and Cao Feng.    

Kong Xian, on the other hand, had long since told Chu Yan when they were still in Heaven's Edge Sect that they would meet up here.    

His desire to help was only as much as he had expected. Thus, Kong Xian was not an unexpected person.    

However, at this time, everyone didn't have much energy to think about these issues.    

The difficulty and strangeness of these zombies could already be seen from the bodies of the Demonheart and the State Grandmaster.    

Inside the palace, there was still the Emperor that they spoke of back then, the Emperor who ruled over twelve kingdoms.    

No one knew what tricks the emperor would use.    

Therefore, at this time, no one would let their guard down.    

Everyone took a short break at the top of the stairs before starting to climb up.    

Those who had fainted, such as Li Xiu, Su Yuqing, and the others, after going through the simple treatment, had finally woken up.    

Although he was still weak, it was no problem for him to walk on his own.    

For those that remained, their injuries would be more severe. For example, for people like Shen Qing, according to Wusilanma's estimation, it would be difficult for her to wake up in a short period of time.    

As they were still unconscious, they were carried by others, or by the Cultivators' spirit beasts.    

All the way up.    

The staircase was spacious and neat, and the slope wasn't too steep either. From a certain point of view, this was the easiest path for them to take after entering the Three Saint Mountain.    

Furthermore, they did not encounter any dangers or mishaps while they were more than halfway down the stairs. This also made them feel at ease.    

But then, the zombies blocking their path appeared again.    

The densely packed zombies, whose bodies were covered with a black murderous aura, were making rustling sounds as they climbed out from under the stairs in front of the crowd, blocking the rest of the stairs so that not even a drop of water could leak out.    

These zombies were not only in human form, but also in beast form.    

The jackal, the tiger, the leopard, bared their sharp fangs. Compared to living beings, they were even more ferocious.    

Everyone looked behind them and up ahead, suddenly coming to a realization.    

They had just finished the first half of the stairs.    

In other words, the stairs were densely packed with zombies.    

The opening of the array and the appearance of the passageway woke up half of the zombies.    

Those zombies turned into corpse tide and rushed down.    

As for the other half, they were waiting for the crowd at the top of the stairs.    

On the tall steps, the corpse aura had congealed and intertwined together like a terrifying face. It moved up and down with a ferocious face as it looked at everyone.    

A restless aura rapidly condensed.    

Chu Yan walked to the very front of the group and faced corpse tide directly.    

While Zhan Yan was leaning on his shoulder, Chu Yan had a faint smile on his face.    

These zombies were a huge help to His Highness.    

At this time, what Chu Yan saw was greatly different from what everyone else was seeing.    

What others saw might just be zombies, but what was more interesting was that it could be used in exchange for the chance to step into the Spirit Severing Road.    

And in the eyes of His Highness Chu, these zombies were cadaveric nucleus, blood energy, and a step that allowed him to train his body and become stronger.    

"I'm going up."    

With a wave of his blade, the sound of flames crackling could be heard.    

Behind Chu Yan, everyone had already made their preparations.    

No matter what they saw in their eyes, the zombies in front of them must be completely exorcised.    

The zombie standing at the very front had a sharp mouth that looked like a rat's, probably because its head had no water.    

At this moment, its eyes seemed to be soaked in blood.    

In the moment it gathered all its strength, it opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth. It let out a soundless roar, and took the lead, charging towards everyone.    

The zombies at the top of the stairs were also moving slowly.    

From afar, it looked just like a mudslide. It first slowly flowed and then poured downwards.    

"He's coming."    

Chu Yan's eyes narrowed, and a bright light bloomed in his eyes.    

Suddenly, he took a step forward.    

He didn't use any martial skills, nor did he use any skills.    

Even the most ordinary yet most powerful force.    

Sssii! *    

That rodent-like zombie was instantly torn in half.    

The moment Chu Yan grabbed onto the cadaveric nucleus, he also retracted his blade abruptly. Holding it horizontally in front of him, his body suddenly turned, and in an instant, like a spinning top, he smashed into the rushing corpse tide.    

Shua shua shua shua!    

In an instant, all the zombies were sliced into pieces. Arms, torsos, limbs, all sorts of incomplete parts were thrown out in all directions like flowers scattered from heaven.    

In the blink of an eye, Chu Yan had cleared a field in front of him.    

The people behind Chu Yan followed closely behind.    

Even though Chu Yan blocked the first wave of attacks for them, it did not mean that they could sleep peacefully.    

This was because as long as the cadaveric nucleus did not get rid of these zombies, even if they lost their arms and legs, they could still pose a great threat.    

Since there were so many zombies here, Chu Yan naturally had no way of clearing the area and plucking the cadaveric nucleus s as well.    

...    

A faint sound came from the direction of the head.    

Zhao Lianxing, who had been here for a long time, slowly opened her eyes.    

The moment she opened her eyes, she had a hint of doubt.    

Who was he?    

Where was this?    

She soon realized that she must have been asleep.    

However, after she realized who she was and why she was here, Zhao Lianxing frowned even more.    

Did he really fall asleep just now?    

And in this pit that was so close to the cold zombies?
