[Heaven's Stairs]
[It is a place, where, at each step lies an unprecedented opportunity seldom born in an Era. It is said that at the top—and very last step of it—lies a fraction of the fortune of Xuantian Realm accumulated over the years—gaining it will increase the cultivation speed of the winner.]
[Legends say that, it will appear every 10,000 years after the beginning of Golden Age of Cultivation. Though it seems to have appeared early this time, but it isn't something to be shocked about, because the first appearance of it starts by appearing around thousand years later after the start of each Golden Age of Cultivation.]
[In which, anyone below 10,000 years old can participate.]
—————
[Within the Holy-Sword Sect of Eastern Wilderness.]
[In Holy Son's Palace, a figure was seen—practicing silently.]
[Suddenly, a figure appeared outside the Holy Son's Palace, who, first greeted the figure inside and then said, "Greeting, Holy Son. The Sect Master asked me to notify you that an extremely important meeting is going to be held, which needs the blessing of your presence." Saying this, he left that place—in order to not disturb the figure residing within, any further.]
[The Holy Son he mentioned was no one—except you.]
[Although, In these years—after the start of Golden Age of Cultivation—, there happened to appear many geniuses of Sword Dao—some even more powerful than you—but because you have the Supreme Foundation of every realm, no one was able to shake your position as the Holy Son. And so, you were still at the position of the Holy Son of Holy-Sword Sect—while they all remained at the position of Quasi-Saint Son.]
[In these years, other than your cultivation reaching the Mid-stage of Fusion realm and mastering the control over one-third of your Sword Domain, you have become a 5th-Grade Puppeteer—with the ability to create Divine Puppet of each of these grades.]
[In these years, with the inheritance of the Ancient Puppeteer, you have also created many unique puppets. Like, Battle Puppet, Alchemist Puppet, Talisman Imprinter and even created a puppet called Puppet Crafter, who can create more puppets like him.]
[In short, they all are called Auxiliary Path Puppets, who focuses on an auxiliary path the master asked them to.]
[But crafting an Auxiliary-Path's Puppet isn't an easy task, and the first and most important part in it's creation is that, the master must possess the insights of the corresponding path he wants to implant in them and the highest achievement an Auxiliary-Path's Puppet can have is to reach the level of it's own master.]
[Further than that isn't possible.]
[But it's still okay for you because it will save the time you have to craft them—which you can use in developing your skills or in cultivation—and it will also be of a great aid in any battle in the future.]
—————
[Outside the Holy Son's Palace, just when you were heading towards the Meeting Hall, you met the current Saintess of Holy-Sword Sect, Ling Yujian—who came to invite you to the meeting hall and was waiting for your seclusion to end.]
[In these years, because of your help, she was able to condense the Supreme Foundation of every realm and stand out among all the people competing for the position of Saintess of Holy-Sword Sect—even when there are people more monstrous than her competing for the position of saintess.]
[Soon, you arrived at the Meeting Hall and sat at chair on thd opposite side of current Holy Lord.]
[After a long discussion, you get to know what the actual situation was.]
[The reason for this meeting wasn't about who will go upon the appearance of Heaven's Stairs but who will stay during this period—while everyone was away.]
[You know, in all the higher-ups present, most of them belong to the category below 10,000 years old. For them, making this decision was the most difficult thing and if they were to choose, they would never choose this.]
[Just when the surroundings began to heat up, a voice resounded in the hall, "You, young fellows, go and get the opportunity that belongs to you and leave the matter of sect to us, old fellows." Saying this, the figure of the Loose Immortals and Transcending Tribulation of Holy-Sword Sect, appeared]
[Seeing them appear, everyone was shocked. No one expected that these old fellows—who became tired of sect affairs and vowed to never meddle in that and had only cultivation and cultivation in their heart— would be troubled enough to walk here themselves, and take the task of guiding the younger generation in their stead.]
[Seeing them, only one thought arose in their mind, 'Has the Sun risen from west, today?']
[Just like that, the matter was settled and everyone in the meeting hall left happily with a beaming smile on their lips.]
[Not long after, everyone received the news of the appearance of Heaven's Stairs and headed for the place it has appeared.]
[This time, because your master, Wang Sheng, was younger than 10,000 year. He also joined in this adventure with you.]
[Soon, you arrived at the place it has appeared, only to see, stairs that are piercing the utmost part of clouds perceivable in your vision, this is the Stairs of Heaven.]
[On this day, you take the first-step on the Stairs of Heaven and just when you did, you felt an insignificant amount of invisible pressure that is trying press your body to the ground, but it was just too insignificant.]
[At the moment, what you don't know is, just when you took your first step on the Stairs of Heaven, someone also stepped on it, he has an evil smile dancing at his lips, his green eyes—that seemed of snake and are shining brightly under the moonlight— is always on you.]
Outside Simulation,
"System, hold on." Just when Lin Chen saw the content of simulation, he wanted to dive in the simulation using the Deep Simulation Feature and warn himself in the simulation but before he do so, a system notification sounded in his mind.
[Host, please wait.]
Receiving the sudden notification and intervention from the simulator—that had never happened before—, Lin Chen was troubled and asked, "Why?"
The answer of his 'why', he soon received with...
[Because, it would be a waste to spend money on dead people.]
