Although he didn’t like medicinal pills as a reward, he wouldn’t waste the chance and so picked a pill.

The tier of the three pills were actually not low, and quite coincidentally, among these pills, one was the Hidden Tiger Heavenly Luck Pill, so Ling Han picked that one.

The other two were used to assist in breaking through a tier—Heaven Tier—but Ling Han didn’t need it, and secondly, he could also refine it, so he skipped those. Anyway, when the people by his side reached the Deity Transformation Tier, he shouldn’t lack the ingredients to refine such pills.

This was also a reward for Zhu Xuan Er.

“There’s one last test ahead. Those who can make it there in ten days will have qualified to take the test,” the formation spirit went on. Every person that passed through the formation received a reward, but other than the top three, the rewards were hardly as impressive.

Everyone departed, and even those who hadn’t passed through the formation were let out. This didn’t affect their qualifications to head towards the third stage… the key was whether or not they could reach the third stage. Similar to the forest that led to the second stage, there were terrifying beasts keeping watch on the way, eliminating a portion of people.

The five of them also set out, and since two parts of Nine Dragons Tyrant Body Art were acquired, Ling Han obviously wanted to obtain the last part even more, forming the complete art.

While he hastened on the road, he began to study the art.

Different from normal arts, the Nine Dragons Tyrant Body Art didn’t cultivate Origin Power. It completely excavated the potential of the human body, increasing the power of blood, flesh, veins, and muscles, and at last, breaking through the limit to become a god in flesh.

To cultivate this art was rather easy. First, eat as much worldly treasures and such tonic things as possible, and second, cultivate for all one was worth, squeezing out one’s own physical limits.

This required a strong physique, or else one wouldn’t be able maintain such terrifying physical power.

Just like a man of clay—even if its punch had over ten thousand pounds of force, if it smashed into a wall, the wall might shatter, but the man of clay itself would also collapse. However, if it were a golem, then a punch would definitely break the wall, and the golem itself would be fine.

For Ling Han, the Nine Dragons Tyrant Body Art was like it was tailor-made for him, because he cultivated Indestructible Heaven’s Scroll and the toughness of his physique was comparable to rare metals of the same tier. If he were to advance one more step to Diamond Tier, then it would be even more terrifying!

With a strong physique, he would get twice the result by doing half the work when cultivating this art.

However, now he didn’t have the time to cultivate, because they were hurrying on the road. The formation spirit actually gave them ten days this time, meaning that the road would be extremely long or filled with danger, and they would stumble and experience numerous difficulties before reaching the end.

The flatlands soon disappeared, and there was no road ahead. Instead, there were stones floating in midair, layering higher and higher until the end of the skies.

“The third stage… could it be in the sky?”

“It certainly seems so.”

“Is this the ladder to heaven?”
