After members of the Nine Heavens Institute ascended the Heavenly Ladder, more and more people discovered that climbing the Heavenly Ladder would prevent attacks from fierce beasts, so all the immortals in the valley surged towards the altar.
As time passed, more and more people advanced upwards on the Heavenly Ladder. At this moment, Qingming Immortal King noticed that people from the Beast Alliance had already ascended more than twenty steps. He then transmitted a message to Chu Zhengyu, saying, "Elder Chu, there might be an inheritance at the end of the Heavenly Ladder. These people from the Beast Alliance are faster than us; the inheritance might end up in their hands."
Chu Zhengyu said, "Don't be hasty, let's wait and see. There might be other dangers on this Heavenly Ladder."
Every step up this Heavenly Ladder meant enduring soul-tearing pain, and as the number of steps increased, the pressure grew, making the pain of soul-tearing even more intense.
