"Hmm, what the hell is going on?"
Ai Li watched from the side, feeling a little uneasy.
This style did not seem right!
In the past, even if it was the first stone step, it would still be so hot that people's feet would bubble.
Although it was not life-threatening, it was enough for ordinary people to cry for their parents and cry their eyes out.
Only when the demonic qi entered the body and transformed the tendons and veins of the body could the injuries be healed.
Then, they stepped onto the next stone step and repeated the previous process.
The temperature of each stone step was doubled. Correspondingly, the demonic qi that transformed the body was also doubled.
After being transformed, the increase in strength was visible to the naked eye.
This kind of temptation was like a drug, making people feel giddy and unable to stop.
People wailed in pain while enjoying the pleasure brought by the increase in strength.
After sublimating in the double purgatory of pain and pleasure, only those who persevered and did not lose their original hearts could pass the trial and become the winner of ascending the Stairway to Heaven.
All the cultivation of the demon gate had a bit of the flavor of a crazy demon, which was why there was the word 'demon' in it.
However, now, the style of the painting had completely collapsed.
Under the leadership of Qiu Ya, the girls of the Jade Fairy Mountain surrounded Alan and jumped around.
It was as if it was a festival. They were just short of singing and dancing.
There was nothing bloody about the demon sect.
What was even more infuriating was that under the influence of the disciples of the Jade Fairy Mountain, all the people who came to participate in the trial had begun to climb the Stairway to Heaven one after another.
It was unknown whether they were affected by their mentality or something else.
These guys had gone from being nervous at the beginning to laughing at the end.
All of them were fine.
Not to mention the blisters on the soles of their feet, but even their skin had not been damaged by magic.
It was as if they had really only walked on a few ordinary stone steps.
Alan took a few tentative steps, but his body did not feel any discomfort.
After the demonic energy contained on the stone steps saw Alan, it was like a swallow returning to the forest, one after another, and it automatically drilled into the soles of his feet.
When others stepped on the stone steps, they could only absorb a little bit of demonic aura under their feet.
Alan reached the Sky Demon Realm in ten thousand years, and he had never stepped on the Stairway to Heaven.
When the demonic aura here met Alan, it was like a big pervert seeing a virgin. They rushed in desperately, afraid that they would be taken advantage of by others if they were late by even half a minute.
As a result, every step Alan took, the heat and demonic aura on the stone steps were all sucked dry.
The two forces were originally meant to interact with each other and help people to get rid of their tendons and purify their marrow.
Now, they were all gathered in Alan's body and spiraled around each other, forming a golden core that was a mixture of red, ink, and black.
With every step Alan took, the golden core grew stronger.
Alan led Qiu Ya and the others all the way down, commenting on the scenery around the demon cave from time to time.
Everyone was in high spirits, talking and laughing. They did not have the slightest awareness that they were in the trial of the demon gate.
"What's going on?"
Ai Li's eyes were about to pop out from watching from the side.
They had already descended to the 100th step.
According to past experience, a newcomer who could reach this position could already be considered to have passed the test.
As long as they turned around and successfully returned, they would be considered official disciples of the demon gate.
Out of the 100 people, less than ten people could reach the 100th step.
Less than half of them could safely return.
However, now, under Alan's lead, everyone was jumping around.
Amidst the cheers and laughter, they had already crossed this hidden line of life and death.
150 steps.
The corners of Ai Li's eyes were already beginning to twitch.
Out of hundreds of people, not a single one was eliminated. Not only that, not even a drop of blood was left.
It had been thousands of years since he came to the demon gate.
This was the first time AI Li had encountered such a peaceful welcoming ceremony.
Two hundred steps.
Ai Li was not the only one. The onlookers who were watching the show could not sit still.
The Stairway to Heaven trial had already started for so long, but not a single scream was heard.
They did not know what Ai Li was up to. Why was it so slow?
Could it be that this year's quality was so bad that no one dared to try?
The crowd was puzzled. They put down the work in their hands and came over to take a look.
When they came to the edge of the catacombs, they only needed to take a glance and could not turn away anymore.
Whether it was the servants or the official disciples, none of them had ever seen such a harmonious scene in the demon sect.
How was this still the demon sect?
These people carried a basket and could have a picnic on the spot.
Three hundred steps.
More and more people were watching.
Reaching three hundred steps was already considered an outstanding disciple.
Those who could reach this depth and return safely were all talented people.
Even the demon's gate was comprised of mostly ordinary people.
There were dozens of people watching. When they climbed the stairway by themselves, less than one-third of them could reach three hundred steps.
500 steps.
People's breathing began to become heavy.
Genius, a once-in-a-century genius.
Those who could make it to 500 steps, as long as they returned safely, would definitely be the mainstay of the incoming disciples.
They already belonged to the category of elite disciples.
If they were lucky, they would be chosen by the elders of the sect and accepted as disciples. Then, they would fly to the top and become a phoenix.
The quality of this rookie selection was actually so high.
Not a single one of the 500 steps was left behind.
Although some of the younger ones were gasping for air, it seemed that it would be difficult for them to climb back up even now.
However, the losses would be at least 50 or more.
This was a once-in-a-century bunch of genius disciples.
In the past, it was always counted by number. This time, it actually accounted for half of the total number of people.
What kind of concept was this?
If the demon sect could have such a grand occasion ten thousand years ago, not to mention the eight great immortal sects, even the twenty-eight immortal sects would not dare to offend the demon sect.
Previously, the three-headed blue-winged sea dragons kept calling for the reincarnation of the demon lord. Could there really be a demon lord?
Could it be that person from Mount Tianxuan?
The reincarnation of the demon lord caused the rise of the demonic path?
Could it be that I am witnessing history?!
Some people in the crowd nimbly connected the strange appearance a few days ago with the rumors from before and instantly opened the conception and governor vessels in their skulls.
It was open!
Everything was open!
The demon gate was destined to prosper, and even God was helping us!
Not only were the people breathing heavily, even their cheeks were beginning to flush red. They were already starting to have an orgasm in their skulls.
Seven hundred steps!
Eight hundred steps!
Nine hundred!!!
More and more people gathered around. The human face clenched his fists, held his breath, and stared intently at the crowd below.
This was especially so for Ai Li. His originally thin face flushed red, and his chest rose and fell violently. He was even more nervous than when he first entered the bridal chamber.
He was a demon-level expert.
He was one of the eight bitter Dharmaraja of the Heavenly Demon Sect, an existence second only to the demon lord.
With his talent, he had only fallen to a thousand steps back then.
As far as he knew, including the demon lord, all the experts of the demon sect reached around a thousand steps.
This was something that the demon sect had accumulated over thousands of years.
On average, in only a few hundred years would there be a heaven's favored son that could reach level 1,000.
However, now, what was he watching?
A few hundred people, laughing, holding hands and reaching level 900!
It looked like they still had some strength left!
What kind of good seedlings were these?!
What does this mean?
It means that as long as they are properly nurtured, in a few hundred years, the demon gate will produce several hundred masters at the level of Dharmaraja Baku!
