Blue Card Starry Sky

Chapter 31 Inheritance
Lan Tian broke through to the sixth level here, which means that he has completely transformed and entered another realm. His growth will be more important. His foundation needs to be strengthened, his cultivation needs to be improved, his skills need to be mastered as soon as possible, and his cultivation needs to reach a higher level.

Upon ascending the platform and advancing to the next level, all the oppressive aura vanished instantly, leaving him as relaxed and unaffected as if on flat ground. When he tried again to use his wings to fly and ascend the new steps, he failed; the oppressive aura of flight remained, forcing him to climb on foot. Lan Tian surveyed the platform, looking down into a vast underground world. Palaces connected on all sides created a magnificent spectacle, with a dome supported by nine pillars, each pillar storing immense energy—nine forces supporting everything within.

Tony Sander and Murong Ziying were still struggling to climb. Watching their perseverance, Lan Tian glanced at the new steps ahead and resolutely continued his ascent to the summit. He had barely taken his first step when it felt several times more difficult than the first step. He couldn't even lift a step; the pressure and resistance were too great. Climbing by his own strength was simply impossible. What to do now? How could he climb up? He needed the right method. Lan Tian sat cross-legged, racking his brains, but to no avail. He had tried several times without success.

Blue Sky meditates, unable to use its power. Can it use attribute skills? If so, which attribute skill should it use, how should it be used, and how can it climb the steps?

Lan Tian immediately went to test it out, starting with a low-level ice attribute. Standing in front of the first step, Lan Tian used his ice attribute to condense ice blades.

With a series of "whoosh" sounds, the ice blades used all their ice-attribute skills to attack the first step at full speed. A barrier appeared in front of the first step, desperately blocking the ice blades' attack. The rapid attack of the ice blades caused the barrier to visibly dent, leaving holes in each blade. The barrier in front of them became slightly loose and began to shake.

"There's hope! A slight weakening will break you down, haha." Lan Tian was excited; his thinking told him he was on the right track. He immediately intensified his efforts to mobilize all his ice-attribute energy, condensing it into a massive ice blade in front of him. The ice blade was imbued with lightning, and lightning bolts shot out and converged, growing larger and larger. The energy fluctuations became increasingly intense. Lan Tian steadied himself and roared at the barrier in front of him.

"Ah, go!"

"Boom, crackling sounds."

"Crack, thud!" Lan Tian unleashed a full-force attack, his ice blade flying towards the barrier like a rocket. The two collided, producing the sound of shattering glass, and exploded instantly. The first-tier barrier shattered completely, and the entire energy barrier surrounding it disintegrated in an instant.

Lan Tian walked slowly forward, lifting his foot lightly and ascending the first step without any resistance. Sure enough, to reach the top, one had to remove the barriers on each step.

Now, unsure if the second step was the same, Lan Tian lifted his foot to climb, only to find it was another barrier, its resistance even greater than the first step. With each step upward, the resistance would increase, requiring more and more energy to break through the barrier, making it increasingly difficult. The energy needed to overcome it would grow ever greater. Lan Tian was starting to feel the strain; just one step had already used half his strength. What should he do next?

Sigh, after much deliberation, Lan Tian decided to take it one step at a time, regardless of the consequences. On the second step, Lan Tian used his ice attribute to enhance his Phoenix attribute skill; the fusion of ice and fire created an indestructible barrier, easily shattering the second step's barrier and successfully advancing to the second step. Next, Lan Tian used the same method to fuse various attribute enhancements, gradually increasing his attribute skills and slowly climbing to the fifth step. By the fifth step, Lan Tian had exhausted all his strength, used all his attribute skills, and was severely overworked. He collapsed to the ground, too exhausted to move, his energy completely depleted. But there were still seven steps to break through—seven barriers!
Tony Sander and Murong Ziying had successfully reached the platform. Seeing Lan Tian lying on the ground, they were at a loss. Now that they had just reached the top of the platform, it seemed that they were about to break through. The two immediately sat cross-legged to cultivate and stabilize their cultivation and calm their minds. The energy fluctuations around them became abnormal, and various energies quickly approached them and were continuously absorbed into their bodies, accelerating their breakthrough.

"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom." One by one, they began to break through, beams of light shooting out from their bodies and shooting straight up. Energy swirled around their bodies, which were constantly being transformed and changed. Painful cries and angry roars filled the air. Advancing was indeed not easy. It required enduring pain and suffering, accumulating knowledge and growing continuously before one could gradually advance.

Seeing their breakthroughs, Lan Tian was deeply moved. No pain, no gain. Lan Tian's blood boiled, his energy fluctuations intensified, and his body rapidly recovered. Various forms of energy were continuously absorbed into his body, which was visibly healing. Lan Tian slowly sat up, cross-legged, and began cultivating, absorbing large amounts of energy to restore his body.

……

Next, after recovering, the three of them combined their strength to push towards the sixth step. The convergence of their three forces amplified their destructive power, and with a "boom," they successfully broke through the sixth step. Working together as a team, they overcame numerous obstacles and successfully reached the tenth step. However, everyone was exhausted. The last two steps, the last two barriers.

At this moment, everyone exerted all their strength, returned to the platform, and rallied to cultivate and recover their energy. Suddenly, Lan Tian remembered something. He looked at the two rings on his hands—two spacetime rings, and wondered what was inside. These were the possessions of the two old men in his mind, who said that only those at the sixth level could open these spacetime rings. Now, thinking of these rings, he calmed his mind and probed them with his entire being. The moment Lan Tian's consciousness touched the rings, a force immediately drew it deeper.

"Boom"

For the first time, I felt my heart race. In an instant, a time-space room appeared in my mind. The room was enormous, neatly arranged with various weapons, equipment, treasures, and artifacts of all sizes, as well as unknown ores. It was truly a dazzling array of items.

"Take out the pills from that little red box and eat them; they will increase your cultivation and energy." The long-lost voice appeared in Lan Tian's mind. He immediately searched for the little red box, which was lying quietly in a corner.
