Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 1549

James ascended the first few steps of the Skyward Stairway with relative ease.

However, he started having a challenging time upon reaching the fourth step.

It felt like a mountain was tied to his feet.

“Move!!!” James shouted in defiance.

He lifted his leg abruptly and went past the fourth step.

After climbing the Fourth Stair, he was sweating profusely.

Sweat had soaked his whole body and seeped into his clothes.

After climbing the fourth step, he proceeded carefully. He collected himself and allowed his True Energy to spread throughout his body to resist the pressure brought on by the fourth step.

While James was ascending the Skyward Stairway, anyone passing by would simply see him sitting in a lotus position on the ground like an unmoving statue.

The Skyward Stairway was imaginary and did not exist in reality.

The ascension of the Skyward Stairway happened within one’s mind.

He was the only one that perceived himself ascending the stairway. Others could not see it at all.

That was the truth behind the Skyward Stairway that manifests to a person once they reach the peak of the eighth rank.

There were only a handful of people in the world who reached this level.

Every one of these people possesses extraordinary strength.

It was not an exaggeration to call them gods.

James sat in a lotus position on the ground.

His energy continued to swell and grow steadily.

After resting, he called up the energy in his body and stepped up on the fifth step.

Crack!

The moment he stepped on the Fifth Stair, bones in his body began to break.

The pressure was too intense, and it was too much for James to bear despite practicing the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals. The severe pain caused him to lose his balance and almost fall off the fifth step.

He did not move and began to calm himself.

James was confident he would be able to ascend one more step, and he felt the fifth step was not his limit.

“The strongest force isn’t True Heavenly Energy. It’s True Nine Ordeals Energy,” James murmured to himself to keep his motivation up.

At that moment, the True Heavenly Energy in his body unraveled into nine streams of True Energy.
