26 Climbing the Celestial Stairway! (1/2)
All the participants had wide eyes as if they were going to pop off from their sockets as they heard Tian Long's words.
The spectators were similarly shocked beyond words as they were sent in an uproar.
”Increasing one's talent and physique just by climbing the stairway! I never knew such things were possible!” said a top expert with astonishment.
”The resources and treasures of those from the Divine Continent are indeed something we simply can't comprehend.” sighed a famous powerhouse among the spectators.
”Indeed, however, this could also be considered as a great opportunity for the young ones that are participating in this test.”
”Right, they'll have an advantage compared to their peers that didn't get the chance to increase their potential and fortify their foundation from this trial.” chuckled a certain sect-leader.
...
”Everyone, you have 5 minutes to prepare before the trial starts!” shouted Tian Long.
”Master, you actually had this godly artifact?! Such an amazing treasure... Even in the Divine Continent, godly artifacts at the same level as this Celestial Stairway could only be counted with two hands!” with a deep breath Jian Chen said with astonishment.
Lin Hui Yin was already amazed when she saw the Glorious Celestial Stairway's appearance but when she further heard what Jian Chen had said, she was shocked senseless.
The Transcendent Divine Continent, the holy ground of martial arts and cultivation, the place where the peak powerhouses of the world reside. There were innumerable and mighty treasures in that continent yet the sect-master's Celestial Stairway is actually so rare that there were only a few godly artifacts that could compare with it?!
Tian Long simply smirked and thought. 'If I showed both of you that I have other things at the same level as the stairway then you'll probably faint from shock.”
Meanwhile,
Lin Zhenin and the other Lin family members had their jaws hanging on the floor as they stared at the colossal stairway which looked as if it was trying to ascend into the heavens.
Lin Zhou whispered to Meng Wu. ”Good thing that Yin'er met Long'er and joined his sect. Before she met Tian Long, her talent and potential could be said to be one of the highest and rarest in the Endless Forces Continent. But now, It's only a matter of time before she surpasses the geniuses of the Endless Forces and eventually leave this place to continue her adventures in the Divine Continent.”
Meng Wu nodded her head and smiled. ”The Eternal Glory Sect will eventually ascend to the heavens. It's a good thing that our Lin Family has a good connection to Long'er and the sect.”
Lin Zhou nodded his head seriously as he looked at those 3 kids in the distance. ”Our Lin Family will rise above to the peak of Endless Force, and maybe, just maybe, we might also be able to reach the level of the Divine Continent.”
...
Five minutes later,
”Everyone! The gates to the stairway shall open in 10 seconds! The higher you climb the more the benefits you get, however, do not push yourself to death since no matter how much good things you might get, it's all useless if you die! Good luck!” shouted Tian Long with a dignified air resembling that of an emperor.

”BEGIN!
*Whoosh* *Gong!*
Once the gigantic gate opened, everyone immediately rushed towards the stairway, trying to get a head start from everyone else.
AHH!!
GAAH!
Suddenly, most of the ones that were in a hurry to climb immediately fell down and sent away.
Tian Long chuckled. ”You all underestimate the Glorious Celestial Stairway. If simply anyone could climb it then it wouldn't be fit to be called a godly artifact right?”
Those that fell had ashen faces as their bodies trembled.
”What was that pressure I felt?! It was ridiculously heavy and extreme!” said a young man with a pale face.
”Yes, I wasn't expecting the starting to point to be that hard already.” another participant said.
”I wish I had another chance to climb it, I would prepare myself properly by then.” said a young girl with regret.
The countless number of participants immediately dwindled down as they climbed upwards with difficulty.
At the spectators,
”Of course, such a colossal treasure won't be that simple at all!” said an Emperor realm cultivator.
”Only those with an unwavering martial heart and perseverance can climb the stairway.” another expert said with a smile.
”Indeed, even if you have a demon-like talent, it just wouldn't be enough.”
...
2 hours later,
Amongst the innumerable amount of participants, there were only 30,000 of them remaining as they struggled to keep climbing.
