Chapter 926 Using external forces

At this time, the wind was howling and the sky was covered with dark clouds, as if the heaven and earth were changing color because of this difficult situation.

Su Yichen, who possesses the body of a God King, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of solemnity flashed in those eyes that were as bright as stars.

He snorted coldly, held his head high, and the strands of hair on his forehead fluttered in the wind, adding a bit of majesty.

"Even the sword spirit body can't bear it? This pressure is indeed quite interesting."

Chu Lingyun, who was standing aside, had a look of reluctance and fear in his eyes.

His cultivation was on par with Mu Feng's, and Mu Feng's defeat cast a shadow over his heart.

There is a lot more fear in my heart.

He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "It seems that it is extremely difficult for us to reach this last floor. Are we really going to retreat like this?"

Lan Xinyao's beautiful face also turned pale.

She bit her lip tightly, her voice trembling and confused, "If I can't even force myself to improve my strength, what else can I do?"

They were usually calm, but at this moment they were also in deep shock.

This sudden setback made them doubt their long-standing confidence and filled them with fear of the seemingly insurmountable difficulties before them.

They looked at the last step with mixed feelings.

If you continue to move forward, you may face an even more miserable ending than Mu Feng.

I choose to give up, but I am really unwilling to do so.

This kind of entanglement and contradiction continues to intertwine in everyone's heart, causing them to fall into extreme confusion and pain.

At this moment, a glimmer of wisdom suddenly appeared on Lan Xinyao's face.

Her eyes, which were originally filled with confusion and pain, now became clear and firm.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and opened her red lips: "Everyone, I seem to have thought of a way. Although Mu Feng has exerted his strength to the peak just now, he is still a step short. If we want to successfully climb this last step and obtain the precious inheritance, we must forcibly improve our strength."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

"How to improve your strength?"

For practitioners, the strength of their cultivation cannot be improved just by saying so.

Lan Xinyao smiled lightly, her beauty blooming instantly, making people's heart beat fast.

"You all have a rich background. I think you can still improve your strength with the help of some external forces, right?"

"Besides, as long as we step onto the stairs, what does it matter even if we consume some treasures?"

After these words were spoken, several people couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

There was a flash of determination in Chu Lingyun's eyes. He was originally a little hesitant, but now he was completely moved.

His breathing became rapid, his hands clenched unconsciously, and his eyes were full of desire for success.

"Yes, we have come this far. If I give up just because I can't bear to part with the treasure, wouldn't all my previous efforts be in vain?" Chu Lingyun thought to himself.

His heart was beating like a drum and a flush appeared on his face.

"Lan Xinyao is right. I'll go ahead!"

Chu Lingyun took a small step forward.

As he spoke, he took out a crystal stone emitting colorful light from his arms.

The crystal was translucent and looked like a dream.

A layer of light blue halo lingers on its surface, and the light is like a lively stream of water, constantly flowing and changing, as if it has its own life.

The moment Chu Lingyun held the crystal in his hand, a tremendous force surged into his body like a surging tide.

His meridians were instantly filled with this power, and every cell was cheering.

This power first gathered at his dantian, forming a dazzling energy vortex.

Then, the vortex slowly rotated, continuously releasing powerful energy fluctuations.

These energies spread rapidly along the meridians, strengthening his bones, muscles and internal organs.

Chu Lingyun's aura began to rise steadily, and his already powerful Five Elements body was stimulated to the extreme at this moment.

The space around him was slightly distorted by this powerful force, and colorful light bloomed from his body, illuminating the surrounding darkness.

With the continuous injection of energy, Chu Lingyun's perception has also been greatly improved.

As he merged with the energy in the crystal, colorful light began to appear around his body and his aura gradually became stronger.

No one noticed that there was a faint smile on Lan Xinyao's lips, and there seemed to be something hidden in that smile.

She stared at Chu Lingyun in front of her without blinking, as if she was watching a brave little white mouse stepping into an unknown experiment.

As time went by, the light on Chu Lingyun became stronger and stronger, and his aura continued to rise.

However, just when everyone thought they were about to succeed, Chu Lingyun suddenly let out a painful roar.

"what!"

His body began to tremble, and the colorful light became chaotic, as if it was going to swallow him up.

"Not good!" Su Yichen frowned, "I'm afraid he can't withstand such a strong force."

Lan Xinyao looked calm, and her slender hands quickly performed hand seals.

After a moment, a cold light shot out from her hand and instantly enveloped Chu Lingyun.

Chu Lingyun's body gradually stabilized, and the chaotic light returned to calm.

He gasped for breath, his eyes filled with relief for surviving the disaster: "Thank you for your help."

Lan Xinyao smiled gently: "It's okay, you can try it."

Chu Lingyun nodded gratefully.

Although forcibly fusing the power in the crystal can improve one's cultivation for a short period of time, it will not last long.

Now is the time to try.

As he thought of this, the spiritual power in his body surged and poured into his feet.

He slowly raised his feet and stepped slowly towards the last step.

Everyone stared at him without blinking, and their breathing seemed to have stopped.

Chu Lingyun didn't care at all about the reactions of the people around him.

His mind was completely immersed in the steps in front of him.

The moment his toes touched the last step, a pressure like an overwhelming force suddenly hit him.

The pressure was so powerful and overbearing that it seemed to crush him to pieces.

Chu Lingyun only felt that his body suddenly became extremely heavy, and every step forward required tremendous effort.

The air around him seemed to solidify, making it difficult for him to breathe.

His moving feet couldn't help but pause.

However, Chu Lingyun did not withdraw his foot.

He clenched his teeth tightly, took a deep breath, and used all his strength to circulate the spiritual power in his body, making it flow at high speed in his meridians to counter the pressure.

Chu Lingyun's body began to tremble slightly, but his feet still moved forward firmly.

Even Ye Tianming and others couldn't help but feel their hearts rise to their chest when watching this scene.

Everyone present felt deeply the horror of the pressure on the steps.

In just a short moment, even Chu Lingyun was covered in sweat.

It can be seen that even the slightest movement consumes a huge amount of energy.

No one knows whether he can succeed.
