Zhui Ming is not interested in closing the net now, but advocates taking a long-term view to catch big fish.
"What do you think?"
Ironhand turned around and asked Cold-blooded for his opinion.
"They are already under our surveillance and cannot change the situation. I agree with the suggestion of pursuing their lives."
"Okay, then we'll wait and close the net."
Seeing that Leng Xue did not recommend taking early action, Tie Shou stopped insisting.
The actions of the Black Clothes Sect are all under the control of the God Catcher, but Chu Ming is still clueless.
After standing on the top of the mountain and admiring the beauty of the rising sun, everyone got busy for a while.
This time Chu Ming soared upwards for about two hours. If it weren't for practicing the "Wild Desolate Jue" that made his physique far superior to ordinary people, he would never have been able to reach such a height.
There is still no change in the copper coins of heaven and earth in his arms, but when he leaves the peak and falls downwards, the temperature of the copper coins will slowly cool down.
"Is the Heavenly Palace really in the sky?"
Judging from the reaction of Tiandi Copper Coin, even Shen Luoyan began to change his views.
"Heavenly Palace, Heavenly Palace, Heavenly Palace... Judging from the name, it seems natural that it should be located in the sky, but how should we enter?"
Although everyone has reached a consensus, the Heavenly Palace still exists in the legend.
"We have the key, but we still can't enter the Heavenly Palace. This is a bit disappointing."
Shen Luoyan, who has always been strong, doesn't want to admit defeat, but is helpless about the current situation.
"We still have to start with the copper coins of heaven and earth."
Chu Ming put forward his idea. Since there were no clues, he could only start with the resources they had.
"If the copper coin of heaven and earth is really the key to unlocking the inheritance of the heavenly palace, then what do you think it will do to open the heavenly palace?"
After hearing Chu Ming's question, the three of them fell into deep thought for a while.
"This is too difficult. If I could know the way to open the Heavenly Palace, I would have told the young master a long time ago, and everyone wouldn't have to be in trouble here."
Zhong Ling pouted and complained. The Heavenly Palace must have opened in a way they couldn't imagine, otherwise they wouldn't have to think hard here.
"Does it require something like blood? If so, we will be in big trouble!"
Zhao Min suddenly thought of a certain possibility and looked at Chu Ming with some horror.
"Probably not. Those who guard the nine heaven and earth copper coins are ordinary people. They have no ability to reach here, let alone blood."
"Sir, have you ever tried dripping your blood on a copper coin?"
"I've already tried it."
In fact, Chu Ming had secretly tried a variety of methods, and in the process he also proved that the copper coins of heaven and earth were extraordinary.
No matter whether it was chopped with knives, axes or struck by lightning and fire, it could not be damaged at all, and it was not known what material it was made of.
Now everyone feels like they are guarding the golden mountain but returning empty-handed. Only Chu Ming still maintains an optimistic attitude.
"There's no need to be so downcast. My luck has always been very good, sir. Maybe the Heavenly Palace will suddenly appear in front of us."
As if to confirm Chu Ming's words, the nine heaven and earth copper coins in his arms were suddenly pulled, and rushed into the sky less than three feet away from the peak. A white light flashed, and a portal appeared in front of them. before.
"Master!"
Zhong Ling looked at him with admiration.
"It should have nothing to do with me. What time is it now?"
Chu Ming still remained calm and asked Shen Luoyan.
"Noon."
"Let's go in first. There should be answers everyone wants to know."
After saying this, Chu Ming was the first to step into the portal composed of nine heaven and earth copper coins. Shen Luoyan, Zhong Ling, and Zhao Min entered one after another.
When Zhao Min crossed the portal, the copper coins of heaven and earth flew back to Chu Ming's arms, and the sky returned to its original state without leaving any trace.
After Chu Ming and others entered the Heavenly Palace, what appeared in front of them was endless white jade stairs and no other buildings.
"Is this the Heavenly Palace?"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Zhong Ling was a little suspicious.
"These stairs should be some kind of test. The real Heavenly Palace should not have appeared yet."
Zhao Min expressed her judgment.
"No matter what, we can only move forward together. There is no other way out."
On the surface, Chu Ming had an attitude of taking things as they came, but in his heart he was extremely cautious.
He has flown and explored the sky on the peak, but found nothing. However, it actually exists here. This is beyond the scope of Shanhai Continent's cognition.
"Xiao Tie, help me identify the treasure in front of me. How many spiritual stones does it cost?"
"Master, do you need to identify this staircase or the entire secret realm?"
"Secret Realm? Is this a secret realm?"
Xiaotie's words shocked Chu Ming. He didn't expect that this was a secret realm, but how could a secret realm appear in the world of Gaowu.
"It must have been brought here by powerful people from the upper realm."
Xiaotie gave a vague answer.
"Xiao Tie, if you want to identify the entire secret realm, how many spiritual stones are needed?"
After a while, the system gave the answer.
"The master currently has insufficient spiritual stones in reserve, so identification cannot be carried out."
After receiving Xiaotie's answer, Chu Ming couldn't help but not be disappointed, but instead full of expectations.
His original intention was to know the value of the Heavenly Palace from the system. Now that he had indirectly known the answer, he was naturally filled with joy.
"These stairs ahead will increase our load and will also be a test for us. Only by climbing to the top can we enter the Heavenly Palace."
"This is a good opportunity to temper the body. It just so happens that my "Wild Wasteland Technique" has reached a bottleneck. This is really a blessed place for everyone."
Shen Luoyan also opened his mouth to encourage everyone.
Chu Ming released Xiaohong, and Xiaolan and Xiaobai appeared behind it. This was also a rare opportunity for them to exercise.
"Brother, it feels familiar here."
"Xiao Hong, have you been here?"
After saying this, Chu Ming couldn't help but feel funny. Xiaohong had never left his side since she hatched, so how could she be here?
"I just feel like it has the same vibe as me here."
"Same breath?"
Xiao Hong is a mythical beast, and it probably did not come from the Shanhai Continent. According to the system, this secret realm should be a thing from the upper world, so Xiao Hong and the secret realm should come from the same place.
Putting aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, Chu Ming stepped onto the white jade stairs first.
Each step was about half a meter thick. When Chu Ming stepped on the steps, he found that the gravity had doubled than usual. This did not have much impact on him.
Zhao Min, Shen Luoyan, and Zhong Ling also stepped onto the stairs. It was obvious that this gravity was very easy for them.
The Chongming Bird and its two little brothers had a great time jumping around on the white jade stairs.
Chu Ming walked up the stairs step by step at a normal speed without showing any contempt.
When walking through the 100th step, the gravity becomes twice as strong as usual.
"Attention everyone, gravity has become stronger again."
After being reminded by Chu Ming, Zhao Min and the others cautiously stepped onto the new ladder. Although the gravity doubled again, such intensity would not affect them.
However, there are endless steps ahead, and no one knows how many tests are waiting for them.
Soon he came to the 200th step. Chu Ming carefully stepped upwards, but the gravity did not change, which made him feel relieved.
If gravity doubles every hundred steps, then the countless steps ahead will make one's scalp numb just by looking at them.
Not to mention the three beauties, even whether Chu Ming can reach the top is a problem.
They successfully passed the 300th step, the 100th step, the 500th step, and finally arrived at the 1,000th step.
After Chu Ming stepped on it, as he expected, the gravity became twice as much as usual.
He nodded to the three women, and everyone understood that gravity had increased again.
When we reached the two thousand steps, the gravity increased eightfold.
Three thousand steps, gravity becomes sixteen times.
At this time, they finally felt like they were carrying a heavy burden. This was also thanks to the power of "Wild Desolate Jue". If ordinary warriors had reached this place, they would have been crushed long ago.
In front of the west thousand steps, Chu Ming stopped.
"Everyone will rest here to recover. There are still many steps ahead."
Zhao Min and the others followed the instructions and began to meditate to regain their strength. Everyone knew that the real challenge was yet to come, so naturally they did not dare to be careless.
Sixteen times the pressure was still unable to put real pressure on Chu Ming. When everyone's physical strength recovered, he stepped onto the 1000th step for the first time.
As expected, the gravity increased thirty-two times.
As a result, everyone's speed obviously slowed down.
Before reaching the five thousand steps, sweat appeared on the faces of Zhao Min, Shen Luoyan, and Zhong Ling.
Although the monster beasts are naturally strong, the lightning ferret is restricted by its low level. Although it has not fallen behind yet, its speed has been slowed down by the Chongming Bird and the Thunder Cloud Beast.
"Brother, I want to go to the front and have a look first."
Xiaohong seemed to be dissatisfied with the speed of everyone and proposed the idea of moving forward alone.
"Okay, but after you reach the top, you can't run around. Just wait for me where you are."
"Don't worry, brother, I'll take the first step."
With Chu Ming's approval, the Chongming Bird turned into a red light and flew upwards with lightning speed.
"As expected of a mythical beast, his physique is powerful!"
Zhao Min looked at the retreating figure with envy.
"Sir, you should hurry up and climb to the top. There is no need to stay with us."
Regarding Shen Luoyan's proposal, Chu Ming just shook his head but said nothing.
No one knew how many steps there were up there. He had already made up his mind to be the one behind the throne.
After all, this is the first time for everyone to enter here, and they are completely unclear about the rules here.
He holds the key to the Heavenly Palace inheritance, and if an accident does happen, he can always find a way to deal with it.
After waiting for everyone to regain their strength, Chu Ming stepped on the five thousandth step, and the gravity increased to sixty times.
