Time ticked by, and soon, the sun was high up in the sky.

Separated by a dark red barrier, the sunlight became much gentler. However, the crowd, who could already see the peak of the mountain in the distance, felt despair.

Above their heads, only a hundred dark red stone steps remained. As long as they climbed up, they would be able to reach the peak. However, it was precisely these hundred stone steps that seemed to have become an insurmountable natural moat that obstructed practically everyone.

"Ah …"

At this moment, a miserable cry came from the mountain path.

After resting for a long time, a man from the Heavenly Fox Clan finally mustered up his courage and rushed up the first stone step.

However, the moment his feet landed on the stone steps, a tremendous force suddenly swept over from all directions. In an instant, it poured down and directly pressed his entire body forward. Immediately, there was a series of "ka ka" sounds coming from his body. He did not know where his bones were forcibly crushed.

Liu Qing saw this scene and frowned slightly. He stepped onto the red mountain path and grabbed his clansman. With all his might, he pulled him back.

"The next part of the mountain path is not something that anyone can climb. For those of you with weak bloodline power, this is the end," Liu Qing said to the rest of the people as he held the unconscious clansman in his hand.

When the crowd heard this, their expressions became somewhat ugly.

They knew that as long as they could successfully reach the peak, there would be a great opportunity waiting for them. However, the peak was clearly in front of them, but it seemed so far away.

Han Li chased step by step with Little White. Finally, they came to a stop in front of the hundred stone steps.

At this point, he felt as if there was a huge rock in front of his chest and back. It was so heavy that he could not breathe. He had already secretly activated the True Spirit Bloodline in his body to help him alleviate the pressure of this part of the world.

Therefore, when he saw Little White lying at his feet like a dead dog, drenched in its fur, not only did he not mock it, but he felt that Little White was somewhat different from before.

Not long after, the people from the Mountain Moving Apes also caught up. However, apart from the elderly chief and Little White, there were only four or five people left in their group.

When they got close, they all stopped. Yuan Shanbai glanced at Little White, who was lying on the ground, and smiled. He gave it a thumbs up to express his admiration.

Little White struggled to stand up and regained its spirit.

Liu Qing looked back at everyone who had rushed over, and his gaze swept across Han Li. The doubt in his eyes did not diminish, but instead increased.

Han Li was already used to this.

He even realized that the Mountain Moving Apes' eyebrows almost covered his eyes were also secretly sizing him up. He could not help but laugh bitterly in his heart.

However, at the same time, Han Li was also wondering why he could last until now. Could it be related to the Mountain Moving Ape bloodline in him?

After all, he was one of the eight ancient True Spirit Monarchs!

At this moment, the Sky Fox Clan set off again. However, among the dozens of people who had reached the peak, only seven people, including Liu Qing and Liu Le'er, were left. They headed to the peak together, while the others sat down cross-legged on the steps.

After the seven of them stepped onto the last hundred steps, with the exception of Liu Qing, all of them had snow-white light erupting from their backs. Thick white fox tails extended from their backs, and rings of snow-white light also appeared on their bodies.

Han Li looked closely and realized that these people had different numbers of tails. Most of them had seven or eight tails, while Liu Le'er had the fewest tails with only six. However, the snow-white light around her body was the brightest.

Moreover, from Han Li's intuition, Liu Le'er's savage aura was the purest and thickest. Even the chief beside her, Liu Qing, could not compare to it.

Seeing that Liu Le'er was fine under the heavy pressure, Liu Le'er felt a little relieved.

"Let's go up too," Han Li said to Little White.

Little White struggled to stand up from the stone steps. It stuck out its tongue and nodded.

They turned around and looked at the little white ape and the little girl who were still resting. Then, they took a step forward and climbed up the last hundred stone steps.

Han Li was already mentally prepared for this, but in the instant that his foot landed on the stone steps, he was still struck by a burst of enormous power that came crashing down on him from all directions, causing him to stumble involuntarily.

He suddenly put his hands forward to support himself on the stone steps above, and his whole body lay on the steps, unable to get up for a long time.

Little White, the Pixiu, was in a similar situation. Its limbs were trembling on the ground, and it was struggling to stand up again. Vague whimpering sounds came from its mouth.

Han Li turned his head to look at it, squeezed out a smile, and let out a low shout.

The Art of Hell-Suppressing Heavenly Fiend in his body was fully activated, and at the same time, his true spirit bloodline was mobilized. His whole body erupted with a black light, and in an instant, he transformed into the image of a demon with three heads and six arms.

He used his six arms to support himself on the stone steps and moved horizontally, shielding Little White's body. He climbed up like a spider.

Little Bai was situated beneath Han Li, and even though she was still being weighed down by the surrounding spatial pressure, she finally had a chance to catch her breath. She struggled to her feet and began to climb upward one step at a time.

After climbing more than 10 steps, Little White felt that it had adapted a little. It contacted Han Li with its mind and wanted to climb on its own.

Han Li hesitated for a moment, but decided to respect Little White's opinion. He then moved horizontally to the side.

Without his protection, the heavy pressure from above fell on Little White's body again. It was so heavy that its limbs trembled again, and it almost could not support itself.

However, after struggling for a moment, Little White finally supported itself and did not fall. It began to climb up bit by bit.

However, the higher it went, the heavier the pressure of the space began to increase. Even Han Li felt that he could not support it, let alone Little White.

Seeing that there were only 10 steps left, Little White's mouth and nose began to bleed. "Drip, drip." The blood dripped all the way, dyeing the red stone steps even more brightly.

When Han Li saw this, his brows tightly knit together, and his heart was filled with worry.

At this moment, something strange happened!

Above their heads, one of the Celestial Fox clansmen, who was one step away from reaching the summit, suddenly couldn't hold on under the heavy pressure and fainted. His body fell backward and fell down the stone steps, crashing into Whitey.

His body wasn't very sturdy, but under this terrifying pressure, the force of him tumbling down from above was no less than that of a mountain.

At this time, Little White's power consumption was close to its limit. His ears were ringing incessantly, and his vision was blurred. He could not avoid it at all. Not to mention a mountain pressing down on him, even if a straw fell on him, he might completely collapse.

At the critical moment, he only saw a hazy black shadow sweep past him. It seemed to have collided with something, and then it rolled down from his side.

At the same time, Han Li's voice sounded in his ear, "We're almost there, hold on."

Little White was startled and sobered up a little. He glanced forward, but there was no sign of Han Li.

When he looked back down, he saw Han Li rolling down with the Heavenly Fox clansman who had already fainted.

A warm current rose in Little White's heart. He clenched his teeth and let out a wild roar from his throat.

At the same time, in his eyes, a circle of golden light lit up at the edge of his dark pupils. The bones all over his body made bursts of crackling sounds, and his whole body seemed to have obtained an unprecedented power in an instant.

Using all four limbs, he started to climb up quickly. He actually managed to climb to the peak in one go.

"I'm up, I'm up …" After Little White climbed up, before he could rejoice, he suddenly felt weak all over his body. His eyes darkened and he fainted.

Liu Le 'er, who had already reached the peak, saw this. She couldn't be bothered to continue adjusting her breath, and she hurriedly ran over.

"He's fine. He just temporarily stimulated the sealed bloodline power. He will recover after resting for a while." A handsome man in a white robe came over and said.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Liu Le'er looked up and found that it was the True Spirit King, Bai Ze. She was a little surprised.

"You go and rest, I will take care of him." Bai Ze said to her.

Liu Le'er hesitated for a moment but nodded and went back.

Bai Ze carried Little White horizontally and twisted his wrist to take out a dark red pill for him to consume. He then looked down the mountain and a look of relief flashed in his eyes.

He smiled and said, "As a human, it is indeed not easy to do this for you …"

On the ancient path up the mountain, Han Li had already shaken off the Sky Fox Tribe member. He stretched out his six arms and grabbed at the surrounding stone steps, but he still could not stabilize his body and kept tumbling down.

Under the heavy pressure of the space, every roll of Han Li's was extremely powerful. If he really could not stop himself from tumbling down, the damage to his muscles and bones might not be serious, but the damage to his organs was not to be underestimated.

Just as he was thrown high into the air, a huge palm suddenly reached out from below, forcibly withstanding the terrifying force brought about by the collision, and pulled him back.

After landing on the ground, Han Li spat out a mouthful of blood. After stabilizing himself with great difficulty, he found that it was the long-browed elder of the Mountain Moving Ape Tribe who had stopped him.

"Thank you, elder." Han Li saw this and quickly cupped his fists in a salute.

The elder only raised his long white eyebrows and smiled at him. Then, he and the little white ape beside him continued to slowly climb up the mountain.

Han Li looked at their backs and sat down cross-legged. He took out a pill and swallowed it, then closed his eyes to regulate his breathing. After a while, he felt that he had recovered some of his strength and stood up again to look at the peak.

After being injured once, climbing the mountain again was much more difficult than before.

Han Li silently activated the Spirit Cultivation Art. He gathered his divine thoughts and activated the Hell-Subduing Technique and the True Spirit Bloodline in his body. He began to climb.
