Chapter 1,243: Peak of the Purple Sky
Wen Dao, who was squeezed on the same staircase with Lin Ruoming, noticed something was wrong with his companion and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"
Lin Ruoming didn't say anything, but just stared at Duan Qing below, lost in thought.
Seeing this, Wen Dao stretched his fat neck with great effort and looked sideways and downward.
Finding that Duan Qing had already reached more than 400 steps, Wen Dao was also shocked and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"How is it possible? How could that kid be so fast!"
Lin Ruoming opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a while.
It's really his own fault!
If I had known this, I wouldn't have separated from He Zifeng and the others!
He Zifeng and Tian Jing, who were on the other ladder, had just cracked a formation and happened to see the abnormality of Wen Dao and Lin Ruoming. They immediately followed their gazes and looked at Duan Qing.
When they found that Duan Qing had reached more than 400 steps in just ten days, they were shocked like Lin Ruoming and couldn't speak.
"Junior sister, this is fate!" He Zifeng looked bitter.
"Yeah, who would have thought that this cow could catch up!" Tian Jing looked quite self-deprecating, and then looked at Lin Ruoming and Wen Dao again.
"These two people must be regretting their actions!"
For some reason, now that she saw that Duan Niu was catching up, she felt disappointed, but also felt a little happy.
Twenty days ago, her senior brothers and sisters and Lin Ruoming arrived at the ninth section. Lin Ruoming and his brothers decisively abandoned her senior brothers and sisters, and even wanted to kill them after they had done their work. For this reason, the two sides had a tense confrontation.
Now that I think about it, how ironic it is.
The four of us have made all the calculations and fought for it, but in the end, we still can't be faster than the other person alone!
...
Unconsciously, a month has passed.
During this month, Duan Qing has no distractions and has devoted himself to breaking the formation.
The formation on the ninth level of the ladder is the most difficult part of all the nearly 10,000 formations on the ladder, especially the difficulty of the formation is gradually increasing as you go up.
Even with Duan Qing's strong deduction ability, he had to spend more time to break the formation.
After a month of hard work, he had reached the last step of the 9,999-step ladder, and he had been on this last step for almost an hour.
The formation on the last step of the ladder was undoubtedly the most difficult of all the formations. Its complex structure and the number of formation eyes were rare in Duan Qing's life.
From this formation, he seemed to see the shadows of all the previous formations, like a combination of all the previous formations, but not exactly the same.
Below, Lin Ruoming and the other four who were still on the ninth section of the ladder with more than 800 steps had no hope of reaching the top of the Purple Sky Nine-layer Bamboo and getting the treasure of the Xuansu Demon King.
Now Duan Qing only had the last step of the ladder to reach the top, and in front of the four people, there were still hundreds of steps of the ladder, and it was the most difficult part.
Unless a miracle happens, the treasure of the Xuansu Demon King is destined to fall into Duan Qing's hands!
But apart from watching Duan Qing reach the top, the four of them were helpless.
On different ladders, they could not attack each other.
Duan Qing was alone on a ladder, and even if the four wanted to stop him from reaching the top, they could not do it.
At this time, Duan Qing withdrew his gaze from the purple jade slip under his feet, exhaled a long breath, and his expression was tired and excited.
The last array was finally broken!
As the last array was broken, Duan Qing only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and instantly disappeared at the end of the ladder.
The next moment, the dazzling sunlight came into his eyes, and Duan Qing subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it.
After a while, Duan Qing's eyes gradually adapted to the new environment, and the scenery in front of him quickly became clear.
At this moment, he was on a purple platform several dozen feet large. A purple cabin was built in the center of the platform. Next to the cabin, there was a small half-burned object, like a burnt wooden stake.
In addition, the entire huge platform was empty.
Looking out of the platform, you can see an endless sea of bamboos in the distance, and a gray sky looming a hundred miles away, which seems to be the boundary of this realm.
Is this the top of the Purple Sky Nine-Layer Bamboo?
Duan Qing just had this thought in his mind, and he heard a movement behind him.
He looked back and found that Lin Ruoming and the other four had appeared on the platform at some point.
The movement he heard was the groan of the fat man Wen Dao when he was exposed to the sun.
After seeing the scene in front of them clearly, Lin Ruoming and the other four couldn't help but fall into astonishment.
What's going on!
Just now, he and the others were desperate to break the formation on the ladder, but now they were actually teleported here!
Is it not important who reaches the top first?
The important thing is that no matter who reaches the top first, the others on the ladder will be teleported up?
After being astonished, the four people reacted instantly and fell into ecstasy.
It's really a dead end, but there is a way out!
Originally, they thought that the treasure of the Xuansu Demon King was out of their reach, but who could have thought that things would take such a turn.
Duan Qing looked at Lin Ruoming and the other four, frowning slightly.
He frowned, not because Lin Ruoming and the other four were teleported up.
Lin Ruoming and the other four were not in his eyes at all, and neither he nor Xiao Hong could easily deal with them.
What he cared about was the unfathomable Concubine Yu.
Lin Ruoming and the other four were teleported up, but why was Concubine Yu not!
Where did Concubine Yu go?
Could it be that Yu Fei is no longer in the Purple Sky Nine-Layer Bamboo?
In the first section, this person had clearly climbed the ladder to heaven, so how did he leave the Purple Sky Nine-Layer Bamboo?
Duan Qing looked around and finally set his sights on the cabin in the center of the platform.
Could it be...!
Just as Duan Qing was lost in thought, Lin Ruoming and the other three had already rushed past Duan Qing and rushed towards the cabin, fearing that they would miss the opportunity if they were a step slower.
Bang bang...!
However, as soon as the four of them ran to the cabin, they were directly bounced away by a light curtain that lit up around the cabin and fell on the edge of the platform, almost falling off the Purple Sky Nine-Layer Bamboo!
The four of them stood up from the ground with a groan and surrounded it again, each of them looking at the cabin in front of them with suspicion, but they did not dare to act rashly.
After a while, there was a sudden movement in the cabin.
After a while, the door of the cabin was opened from the inside, and a little girl who looked only six or seven years old appeared in front of everyone with sleepy eyes, as if she had not woken up yet.
The little girl was wearing a loose green robe, with a round pink face and a hair that was neither short nor long tied into a sky rocket, which looked quite funny.
Seeing Duan Qing and others standing in front of the cabin, the little girl rubbed her eyes with her hands, and her face suddenly became full of surprise. She took two steps at a time and ran directly to the light curtain around the cabin with her short and thick legs.
"Ah, you are finally here, Xiaozhu fell asleep waiting!"
