Chapter 816: Suppressing the Power
Since Taihao's breakthrough, he has had a very high opinion of himself, believing that there are only a few people in the world who can be his opponents. But now he was severely fooled by Tianjizi in front of him. The two had fought outside the passage before. Taihao could not do anything to Tianjizi's ancient human-demon, and Tianjizi could not do anything to Taihao. The two fought and turned the world upside down, but there was no result. Tianjizi was extremely anxious. He did not want to waste time here. Gu Qingming, who rushed into the passage early, made Tianjizi extremely worried. What if Gu Qingming opened the Pantheon and took out millions of gods, everything would be too late.
His mind suddenly turned, and he immediately told Taihao about the magic of the Pantheon and made an agreement with Taihao.
After Taihao knew the inside story of the Pantheon, he also understood that if the Eight Desolate Monument to the Gods was completed, he might not be a match for Gu Qingming. He had severely injured Gu Qingming before and offended him badly, and Taihao did not want Gu Qingming to succeed.
After the two of them made an agreement with ulterior motives, they both stopped and rushed into the passage. Unfortunately, Taihao did not expect that the passage was filled with the repressive force laid by the Emperor of Tribulation. Unless there were imperial weapons or innate spiritual treasures, it was impossible to shake off these repressive forces.
Tian Ji Zi had the bronze coffin that could suppress the world in his hand, and was not afraid of the suppressing power of this place at all. Tai Hao immediately realized that he had been fooled by Tian Ji Zi.
Taihao was so angry that he started cursing, but Tianjizi just laughed out loud. Taihao got angrier and angrier, but he couldn't do anything about Tianjizi.
"Tianjizi, you wait for me. Originally, I hadn't decided which side to stand on or who to deal with at this great calamity. Now I have made up my mind. Tianji Sect, you brought this upon yourselves."
Just as Taihao was secretly venting his anger, Zhang Qian, who was running in the front, had already seen the Pantheon with its dazzling divine light.
Even though it was still very far away, he was finally able to see the Pantheon clearly. It was no longer just a little divine light that he could see before.
The entire Pantheon is extremely majestic and towering. From a distance, it seems to be about three thousand feet high. It is golden all over, and no one knows what kind of fairy gold it is made of. The temple is shining and looks extremely magical. There is a long staircase in front of the temple with more than ten thousand steps. These steps make the Pantheon even more magical, just like the heavenly palace where the supreme immortals and gods live.
After seeing the magical Pantheon, Zhang Qian became even more energetic. He immediately ran as fast as he could, making Gu Qingming behind him jump in anxiety.
Tian Ji Zi and Tai Hao also saw Zhang Qian in the front. After seeing the Nine Nine Heavenly Luo Canopy above Zhang Qian's head, Tian Ji Zi and Tai Hao had different expressions. Tai Hao didn't know the origin of the Nine Nine Heavenly Luo Canopy, he only saw that it was a treasure of the same grade as an imperial weapon, and it was also a defensive treasure. This made Tai Hao curse in his heart, thinking that among these people in the passage, he was the only one who had empty hands and no treasure to show off.
After all, the ancient demon court was too shallow and did not have any precious treasures. This made Taihao secretly determined that since he had already reached the top, he should have his share of the treasures in the world. After he went out, he would do whatever it took to snatch an imperial magic weapon.
Tian Jizi was different. He recognized the Nine-Nine Heavenly Luo Canopy directly. His reaction was similar to Gu Qingming's. His pupils shrank and he thought of a lot of things. His attention to Zhang Qian increased to a higher level again.
"It is said that during a great calamity, there will be a demon. I used to think that the demon that appeared in this great calamity would be Li Shenfan, the swordsman prodigy of the Heavenly Sword Sect. I didn't expect that Zhang Qian is even more of a demon than Li Shenfan. Could it be that Zhang Qian is the one who caused the great calamity?"
Tian Jizi guessed secretly in his heart, and his eyes became more solemn.
The four people in the passage were silent and all running wildly. Half an hour later, Zhang Qian, who was in the front, finally arrived at the bottom of the ten thousand steps of the Pantheon.
Looking up, the towering Pantheon made people feel awe. Zhang Qian climbed the stairs without any hesitation.
"Ok?"
As soon as he stepped onto the stairs, his body sank. It was because a terrible pressure appeared on the stairs. The pressure was even stronger than the suppressing force in the passage.
Zhang Qian narrowed his eyes and took another step forward, and the pressure immediately increased.
"The force of suppression is getting stronger and stronger? Humph, you can't stop me!"
With his blood surging and his might fully displayed, he actually started to jog, and in an instant he had crossed hundreds of steps. With each step he took, the pressure he endured increased. After hundreds of steps, the pressure around him had reached a point where it was as if it were real, which was extremely shocking.
Fortunately, Zhang Qian's body was strong, so he could withstand this repressive force. With the Nine-Nine Heavenly Luo Huagai to disperse the surrounding pressure, his climbing speed was still not slow.
However, when he climbed to the middle part of the 10,000 steps, he began to breathe heavily. The pressure here was so terrifying that even his Heavenly Dao Jade Body began to creak.
At this time, Gu Qingming also reached the steps and began to climb. Compared with Zhang Qian, who was under great pressure, Gu Qingming was much more relaxed. He didn't even feel any pressure. As a descendant of the bloodline of Emperor Jie, the repressive force on the steps would not target him at all.
This resulted in Gu Qingming catching up with Zhang Qian in a short while.
Zhang Qian became anxious when he saw it.
His plan can only be carried out on the basis of arriving at the Pantheon first. Once seen by Gu Qingming, there will be no hope.
"combine!"
Suddenly, twelve divine flags appeared behind Zhang Qian. They were the Twelve Gods and Demons Flags of Heaven. The twelve ancestor witches, gods and demons jumped out together and transformed into a giant about ten feet tall.
Zhang Qian's thought moved him, and he became one with the giant. Endless power surged into his heart, and he rushed out in a flash. The terrifying suppressing force just now seemed to be non-existent. His speed was much faster than Gu Qingming's.
Even Zhang Qian was no longer climbing up one step at a time, but taking big strides, crossing dozens of steps in one step, which left Gu Qingming stunned.
Tian Jizi and Taihao behind were also dumbfounded. They did not understand the means that Zhang Qian had just displayed, but they also saw that Zhang Qian's physical body had reached an incredible level at this moment, and he regarded the suppressive force here as nothing.
Finally, Zhang Qian climbed to the last one hundred steps. As long as he crossed these one hundred steps, he would reach the gate of the Pantheon.
Gu Qingming had been pulled behind him for a long time. As soon as he took a step, he immediately felt the repressive force around him surge up. Facing such a repressive force, if the physical body could not reach the immortal realm, it would be crushed into powder in an instant.
Zhang Qian's speed also slowed down, and when he reached the last ten floors, his body was already full of cracks!
The suppressing force here is even comparable to the twisting suction of the East China Sea Eye.
However, after merging with the Ancestral Witch God and Demon Giant, Zhang Qian was not afraid of the suppressing power here. Even if there were cracks all over his body, it was the Ancestral Witch God and Demon Giant who was injured, not Zhang Qian's body.
He walked forward without hesitation, and when he stepped over the last step, his legs suddenly cracked and showed signs of breaking.
The palace gate was right in front of him, and Zhang Qian could even clearly see the dense Taoist patterns on it.
However, Zhang Qian could no longer move forward even a single step, because of the suppressing force in front of the palace gate, which was like an ancient emperor exerting his full strength to suppress him, making him unable to move. If it were not for the protection of the Nine-Nine Heavenly Luo Canopy, he might have been lying on the ground now.
Swish!
Silently, the All-Knowing Strategies of the Universe, which Zhang Qian had been hiding deeply, flew out from the broken jade. As soon as it appeared, he hid his figure and did not let Gu Qingming behind him see it. Then, under Zhang Qian's control, All-Knowing Strategies of the Universe was hidden and gently stuck to the door of the palace!
