When saying this, Xu Taiping had already stood up again.
As he continued to step forward, he took out a rope from the ring, tied the Buddha statue to his back, and then, with his back hunched, stepped forward one step after another.
The wolf-headed yin spirit waiting for Xu Taiping on the upper steps watched quietly for a long time, and then turned his head and muttered:
The human race is really fragile.
However, when stepping onto the steps, he added in a low voice:
But also terrifying.
So the wolf-headed yin spirit once again climbed the last hundred steps with Xu Taiping, one after the other, step by step.
Although this scene is completely insignificant compared to the many difficult challenges that Xu Taiping encountered before.
But for some reason, whether it was the cultivators watching the battle in the teahouse or in front of the spiritual mirror, none of them said a word.
Even some cultivators felt a sense of respect for Xu Taiping in the shadow for no reason.
Xiahou You of Yuheng Mountain asked in not understanding at this time:
Third Uncle, why do I feel that Xu Taiping, who is climbing the steps step by step at this moment, is even more brilliant than… than when he repelled the group of ghosts in Kasyapa Hall.
Shi Hutian Jun, who had been silent for a long time, took a deep breath and then replied:
Because Xu Taiping at this moment is more like a human.
He immediately added:
A living person who attempts to use the body of a human to resist the confinement of the heavenly dao on the human body.
Upon hearing this, Xiahou Qingyuan, who had originally been somewhat dismissive, suddenly felt a shock in his heart and muttered, “Third Uncle, are you trying to say that Xu Taiping’s physical body has been completely exhausted just now when dealing with the possession of that extraterritorial evil god?”
Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch nodded with a complex expression and said:
”Look at the bloodstains on the steps along the way.”
With Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch’s reminder, Xiahou Qingyuan and Xiahou You finally saw that the steps leading to the peak had already been dyed red by the blood flowing out of Xu Taiping’s body.
Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch then said:
“You should all be very clear that only when the essence and blood of a cultivator above the Huajing realm are exhausted will such a situation occur where the qi and blood cannot be controlled and detached from the physical body.
”That’s why I guessed that, if there is no accident, Xu Taiping’s physical body had already been completely exhausted when dealing with the possession of the extraterritorial evil god.”
When he said this, Stone Lake Heavenly Monarch suddenly paused for a moment. Then, his gaze once again looked at Xu Taiping, who was only a dozen steps away from reaching the summit. He let out a long breath and then said:
“What you are seeing at this moment is a cultivator who should have fallen to the ground unable to get up, but is relying on his amazing perseverance to climb the peak step by step with that exhausted body.
“No matter what the purpose of Xu Taiping’s trip is, whether it is for his own self-interest.”
“At least in front of this scene.”
“It is worthy of our solemn respect.”
“Because, since the beginning of chaos in ancient times, our human race cultivators have walked step by step to the forefront of all living beings in Shangqing like this.”
Hearing this, Xiahou You beside him immediately took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
Although Xiahou Qingyuan didn’t say anything, the look in his eyes when he looked at Xu Taiping at this moment was already full of thick envy and jealousy.
Who among the cultivators in the world doesn’t want to live like that?
And just at this moment, seeing that there were still seven or eight steps left to reach the summit, Xu Taiping suddenly fell to the ground again.
In the glaring sunlight, the long bloodstain behind him was like a long cape dragging behind him.
Perhaps because of excessive exhaustion, this time Xu Taiping lay on the ground for a long time and didn’t get up.
If it weren’t for the fact that his body’s ups and downs could still be seen, all the cultivators would have begun to doubt whether he was still alive.
Some cultivators even said regretfully:
“This Xu Taiping is probably going to be unable to hold on.”
Some cultivators echoed:
“It’s a pity that he managed to get this far.”
Some cultivators retorted:
“Whether it is to take down this Buddha statue or carry this Buddha statue to the top of the mountain, it is all a meaningless act. What’s there to be sorry about?”
A cultivator agreed and said:
“That’s right. I think this Xu Taiping is just full and has nothing better to do. The Buddhist fate of Shangqing has been cut off for so long. What’s the point of him doing these things?”
A cultivator suspected and said:
“Could it be that after bringing this Buddha statue to the top of the peak, it can open the door of a certain secret realm or treasure left by the Buddhist country?”
Hearing this, the discussions among the cultivators in the teahouse became lively again.
Compared with the feat of breaking the first-sided Heavenly Dao imprisonment, the cultivators are more interested in the secret realm and the treasure.
Moreover, Xu Taiping had already obtained a lot of rare things on Lingjiu Peak earlier.
As the discussions became more and more intense, many cultivators didn’t even notice that Xu Taiping, who had been lying on the ground for a while, actually stood up again.
First, a cultivator exclaimed:
“Look, look. This Xu Taiping not only got up again, but also climbed five steps on the west side in a row!”
Soon, another cultivator exclaimed:
“There is only the last step left, and Xu Taiping is about to reach the top of Lingjiu Peak!”
In an instant, the teahouse, which was just bustling with excitement, became quiet again.
“Patta!”
At this moment, within the quiet teahouse, the sound of footsteps through the Shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone became extremely clear to Xu Taiping.
Immediately afterwards, within the enlarged pupils of the numerous cultivators, the figure of Xu Taiping, staggering as he stepped over the last step, simultaneously appeared.
“Pa!”
At this time, in the midst of another heavy sound of footsteps, Xu Taiping’s footsteps finally stepped onto the ground at the summit of Lingjiu Peak.
The line of sight within the image of the Moon Shadow Stone also looked towards the summit.
It could be seen that at the summit of the magnificent and imposing Lingjiu Peak, in front of Xu Taiping, a vast and boundless huge square, meticulously paved with floor tiles that emitted a purple-gold luster, was revealed.
In the very center of the square, a censer towering to a height of one or two stories stood proudly, Youdaoplaceholder0 an ancient and solemn atmosphere. The line of sight passed through the smoke of the censer and continued to extend towards the rear. Only a huge golden door that was majestic and lofty, dividing the summit into two came into view. It was carved with complex and mysterious patterns, inspiring a sense of awe in people.
In front of those two golden doors, there was also enshrined an enormous lotus platform with lotus petals blooming like the blazing flames and it seemed to contain some kind of ancient power.
Not only the lotus platform and the incense burner, but all the buildings and decorations on this peak are presented on an extremely huge scale, as if they were built according to the magnificent residence style of the god-human race in ancient times, revealing a solemnity and mystery that transcends time and space.
After seeing everything on the peak clearly, finally a cultivator spoke with a tone full of surprise and said:
“This Xu Taiping actually managed to climb up… climb up to the peak relying on only a incomplete body.
And another part of the cultivators were paying attention to the huge golden door that crossed the peak.
“Is this the rumored place where the eminent monks s of a Thousand Buddha Kingdom ascended?”
“The scriptures on that door are indeed seen for the first time.”
Even more cultivators had a wild thought and said:
“Could it be that this Xu Taiping intends to ascend to the foreign Buddhist country from here?”
However, as Xu Taiping on the peak began to carry that Buddhist statue and walk step by step towards the incense burner, the discussion in the teahouse became smaller and smaller.
