851: Staying true to our original aspirations will allow us to go far.

Not long after.

Xie Weilou arrived in front of the Barbarian God Hall, greeted by a massive black archway.

Further up were another fifteen thousand steps, leading directly to the peak of Barbarian God Mountain.

From the Barbarian God Hall's location, the power of thunder increased directly by dozens of times, with destructive lightning arcs flashing, dazzling and piercing, and continuous, deafening roars.

To continue upwards, the difficulty was immense.

The Barbarian God Hall's location was just the first watershed!

Ye Anlan followed, staring at the steps above, her expression extremely solemn. The higher they went, the more terrifying the thunder became, making her heart palpitate.

Xie Weilou looked at Ye Anlan and said with a smile, "Your Royal Highness, dare to make a bet? When killing enemies before, the outcome was known, so it's understandable if you didn't dare to bet. But climbing this mountain is unknown. Betting now will greatly increase the motivation to climb."

Ye Anlan gazed at Xie Weilou: "How do you want to bet?"

This mountain was extremely perilous. When dealing with the Barbarian God Clan Divine Envoys earlier, she wasn't confident she could win against Xie Weilou.

But climbing the mountain was different, filled with countless possibilities. One's own strength, talent, treasures, and so on, were all key.

If she were to truly climb this mountain, she might not necessarily lose to Xie Weilou.

Xie Weilou smiled and said, "Whoever reaches the higher position wins! If you lose, let me touch your beautiful legs."

There are myriad Great Daos, and it shouldn't be so small; the path of the foot is also a Dao. Constantly touching beautiful legs, maintaining one's original intention, is the only way to go far.

Ye Anlan frowned slightly. Was this guy fixated on her legs? She subconsciously glanced at her beautiful legs.

Hmm!

Beneath the jade dress, they were slender, straight, dazzling, very tender and smooth... "What if you lose?"

Ye Anlan asked.

"You name the condition."

Xie Weilou said with a faint smile.

Lose?

He couldn't lose at all!

If Ye Anlan's physique could be even stronger than his, then even if he lost, he would be completely convinced.

Ye Anlan pondered for a moment and said, "I heard you are an elder of the Danhe Realm, and your alchemy skills are extraordinary. If you lose, how about asking Senior Xiu Tianchen to refine a pill for me then?"

Xiu Tianchen, as the number one alchemist in the Eastern Wilderness, had now defied fate and reached the cultivation of a Half-Saint. It was extremely difficult to ask him to refine pills.

But if someone from the Danhe Realm spoke, it might be much simpler.

Xie Weilou chuckled, "Asking Senior Xiu Tianchen to refine a pill, I'm afraid I can't help with that. However, if you want to refine pills, as long as you can win, I can certainly give my all."

"Good!"

Ye Anlan didn't hesitate and agreed directly.

Xie Weilou's alchemy talent was also extraordinary, and the height he could reach in the path of alchemy in the future was definitely not simple.

If she could win against him now, having him refine pills in the future might not be bad at all.

"Please!"

Xie Weilou extended his hand to Ye Anlan.

This Third Princess of the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty, whose cultivation had reached the Extreme Guixu Realm, he was somewhat curious what methods she would have.

"..."

Ye Anlan wasted no words and charged directly upwards.

Fifteen thousand steps, she wasn't confident of reaching the top, but she was somewhat confident of reaching ten thousand steps.

Xie Weilou watched Ye Anlan's back. He put away his burial flower sword and immediately followed.

Ye Cangxiao and the others followed. They took a look, then didn't hesitate, and all went upwards... ------

An hour later.

At the five thousandth step, Ye Anlan's pace slowed down. At this moment, her expression was extremely solemn; the surrounding thunder was terrifying, putting immense pressure on her.

From the Barbarian God Hall to the mountain peak, there were a total of fifteen thousand steps, but upon reaching the five thousandth step, the power of thunder directly increased by over a hundredfold. This was the second watershed.

Subsequently, every five thousand steps was a watershed, and there were still two terrifying watersheds ahead.

Countless heaven's favored children had come here before, all of them stepped onto the second watershed, but it was very difficult to step onto the third watershed, and even if they did, they would stop there.

It was rumored that Zhou Tian Holy Son had once set foot on the third watershed, reaching the ten thousandth step, but stopped there, unable to move forward at all.

Xie Weilou stood aside, looking at Ye Anlan with a composed expression: "Your Royal Highness, can't you hold on any longer?"

The thunder here was indeed terrifying. If he hadn't cultivated the Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Punishment Body and possessed a powerful physique, he probably wouldn't have been able to last long either.

Ye Anlan said in a deep voice, "Don't worry! It's not my limit yet."

After saying that, she charged upwards again. At this moment, she only felt some pressure, but she could still overcome this kind of pressure.

Zhou Tian Holy Son could reach the ten thousandth step, so she naturally could too. In terms of physique, hers was not weak either.

"..."

Xie Weilou smiled and continued upwards.

The thunder here had no effect on him, nor did it cause him to cultivate the Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Punishment Body.

To cultivate, he would at least need to be above the ten thousandth step.

In a flash.

Another hour passed.

Ye Anlan reached the nine thousandth step, the pressure became even greater, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat.

As the surrounding thunder struck, her skin began to crack. If she continued upwards, her body might be pulverized by the thunder.

Boom!

Ye Anlan gritted her teeth, her aura surged, and a rich imperial aura permeated. She withstood all the thunder and charged directly upwards.

The ten thousandth step was a place she absolutely had to reach. Having arrived at the nine thousandth step, she naturally had to continue upwards.

As the Third Princess of the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty, she possessed a royal inherited physique, the Eastern Wilderness Imperial Body. This physique was equally domineering; by using the power of the imperial Dao, her combat strength would skyrocket, and her physical body would become even stronger.

"..."

Ye Anlan pushed forward in one go, constantly rushing upwards at an extremely fast speed.

"Her physique is also extraordinary."

Xie Weilou thought to himself, then continued to follow.

However, he felt that Ye Anlan could at most reach the ten thousandth step.

Because stepping onto the ten thousandth step marked the third watershed.

The power of thunder there was more than a hundred times stronger than that of the second watershed, making it very difficult to pass.

Not to mention the Guixu Realm, even those in the Kou Gong Realm or Dao Seeking Realm would find it difficult to stay long at that position.

Behind them, Ye Cangxiao and the others were desperately trying to catch up, but they were clearly in a worse state, under immense pressure, and their steps were arduous.

Even if they gave their all and used their treasures, they would struggle to reach the ten thousandth step, barely making it to eight or nine thousand steps.

At the ten thousandth step.

There was a small plaza here. The power of thunder was even more fierce and domineering, the thunder roared, capable of annihilating all things, utterly terrifying.

Generally speaking, among the younger generation, those who could reach here were all Holy Sons and Holy Daughters of major Holy Lands, and Imperial Sons and Imperial Daughters of major Imperial Clans.

Half an hour later.

Ye Anlan successfully reached the ten thousandth step.

Boom!

The moment she stepped onto the stairs, ten thousand acres of thunder struck from all directions, carrying the might of destruction...
