Chapter 1250: Chapter 169: Xirang, the Immortal Dao’s Marvelous Treasure!

On top of the Heavenly Ladder.

Jiang Ning felt a bit dizzy as he met Bai Li’s alluring gaze, her eyes full of fox-like charm.

"Senior Brother Bai!" he called out.

"Brother Jiang, is this your first time climbing the Heavenly Ladder?" Bai Li asked.

"First time!" he replied.

"First time?" Bai Li nodded slightly: "Then Brother Jiang may not be very familiar with this Heavenly Ladder!"

Upon hearing this.

Jiang Ning immediately cupped his hands respectfully: "Please, Senior Brother Bai, enlighten me!"

Bai Li nodded slightly, then continued forward.

As she stepped onto a new step, she appeared as if she were leisurely strolling, showing no signs of the enormous pressure she was under.

"The Heavenly Ladder was a place of trial left by the Shangyang Immortal Sect during Ancient Times for the sect’s true disciples. This Heavenly Ladder is also known as the Ascending Path to Immortality."

"Ascending Path to Immortality?" Jiang Ning’s face showed surprise.

Bai Li continued climbing: "This place is the Shangyang Inner Scenery, you and I are both spirit bodies now! What the Heavenly Ladder tests is our mental strength. Reaching the hundredth step signifies the mental strength of an immortal domain peak. If you ascend to the two-hundredth step, your mental strength will rival an Immortal’s, and ascending to immortality will be within your grasp!"

"Two hundred steps and you rival an Immortal?" Jiang Ning murmured, looking at the multitude of steps above.

"Indeed!" Bai Li had already reached the step where Jiang Ning was.

"Senior Brother Bai, what about the mental strength of a Primordial Spirit Strong Person?" Jiang Ning asked.

"Brother Jiang is not simple! You even know about Primordial Spirit Strong Person!" Bai Li glanced at Jiang Ning and said: "Primordial Spirit, also known as Immortal. In the Ancient Era, Immortal Dao Strong Persons shed their mortal bodies, formed their Immortal Bodies, nurtured and transformed by the Immortal Body, Divine Soul would only evolve into Primordial Spirit."

Saying this, Bai Li looked at the heavenly ladder shrouded in mist above.

"Ascending two hundred steps signifies matching an Immortal, which is the mental strength of today’s Primordial Spirit Immortals!"

Upon hearing.

Jiang Ning immediately expressed gratitude: "Thank you, Senior Brother, for solving my doubts."

"No need to be polite!" Bai Li shook her head and said: "If Brother can reach the first hundred steps of the Heavenly Ladder, according to judgment, that is the mental strength of Yang God Strong Persons, you’ll receive the rewards left behind!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning immediately understood.

He understood where Bai Li’s golden aura came from before.

"Brother, if you can surpass two hundred steps, you will be an Immortal, keep going!" Bai Li left these words, then surpassed Jiang Ning, heading upward.

Her form was steady, taking each step without any pause.

"Senior Brother Bai’s true form is indeed a Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox!"

Watching Bai Li climb the Heavenly Ladder effortlessly, Jiang Ning was amazed.

He had learned about the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox from ancient texts.

In the Demon Clan, the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox was said to be part of the Emperor Clan.

In the Ancient Times, there existed a Heavenly Emperor.

And the ancestors of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox were once emperors under the Heavenly Emperor.

Thus, the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox’s bloodline is noble and has a grand lineage.

Thoughts flashed through his mind.

Jiang Ning followed suit.

Boom!

He took another step on the stairs, a much larger pressure than before fell upon him.

His body suddenly paused, stopping on the stairs, adapting to this pressure.

He then glanced at Bai Li ahead.

In just a short moment of delay. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Bai Li had already advanced ten steps ahead of him.

Step by step, with almost no pause.

"Such strong spirit body!"

"Could Senior Brother Bai be a Primordial Spirit Immortal?"

Recalling Bai Li’s explanation just now, thoughts suddenly flashed in his mind.

He could feel the enormous pressure on the Heavenly Ladder.

Especially with each new step climbed.

That pressure erupted like a flood breaking its banks.

The brief impact was so substantial that it shook his body.

While Bai Li continued climbing the stairs, her body did not move at all, as if the pressure did not exist.

After a brief deliberation.

He adapted to the pressure again, then continued climbing.

Boom—

The pressure exploded once more, shaking his entire body.

After brief adaptation, he continued climbing upward.

Moments later.

On the ninety-ninth step.

Bai Li looked back and saw that Jiang Ning had already reached the eighty-eighth step.

She nodded slightly, then turned and stepped onto the hundredth step.

As she crossed the barrier, her body vanished into the mist.

Meanwhile.

Jiang Ning withdrew his gaze.

Again stepping onto the next step.

Boom!!

A mighty pressure pressed on him like a mountain.

This caused his body to sway slightly.

Yet, at this moment, joy filled his heart.

Having climbed high enough, facing enough mental pressure, he could feel at this intense pressure, his spirit was slowly becoming more solid.

Like a piece of crude iron, suddenly hammered by a heavy object, impurities were instantly hammered out.

"No wonder Senior Brother Bai previously clearly climbed the Heavenly Ladder, and now climbs it again!"

Sensing his own transformation, thoughts flashed through Jiang Ning’s mind.

Then, he continued upward.

Looking at the final dozen steps, his resolve was firm.

At this moment.

On the first hundred steps, only Jiang Ning remained climbing.

Bai Li had disappeared into the dense white mist, unseen.

...

As time passed.

Jiang Ning climbed step by step.

With each step, he felt his spirit body under pressure, becoming more refined, radiating brilliance, as though undergoing a kind of qualitative transformation.

"Truly a great place!"

Standing on the ninety-seventh step of the Heavenly Ladder, looking at the last three steps, Jiang Ning’s eyes shone brightly.

Along the way.

He discovered the Heavenly Ladder was not only a test for the sect’s disciples.
