Chapter 1397 Mysterious Stairs

"The divine beast is giving a hint! It's the divine beast's hint!"

"We are saved!"

"Everyone hurry up and catch up!"

A group of monks were very excited and followed the giant python's footsteps to climb up the stairs.

I have to say, the stairs are really high, with each step being more than one person tall.

However, these monks did not use any skills at all, but climbed with their bare hands.

"I understand!" Lu Yun suddenly realized: "The male cultivator has not returned yet, he must have found a way to break through the shackles, and that method is the way to heaven created by Taoist Tianyi!"

Lu Yun's voice seemed to be heard by the giant python. It turned to face Lu Yun and spit out its tongue.

Lu Yun couldn't help but feel as if a thorn in his back was being stared at by the giant python.

At the same time, a voice sounded in his mind.

"My master wanted to go back to look for his Taoist partner after ascending to heaven, but... there are too many things in this world that are beyond one's control. When he returned, my mistress had already become that statue."

"what?"

Only then did Lu Yun realize that the one talking to it was actually the giant python.

Seeing the bulge on the top of the giant python's head, it is clearly the symbol of transformation into a dragon.

"Originally I was just a dying little snake. Thanks to my master and mistress, I am where I am today." The giant python continued, "My master was extremely sad when my mistress passed away. Therefore, whenever he has the chance, he will appear on the road to heaven, waiting for the arrival of the destined person and helping them to reach the upper realm."

"I see." Lu Yun nodded slightly.

"The gate to heaven is now open. If you also want to go to the upper realm, follow me."

After saying this, the python turned around and continued climbing the stairs.

Seeing the monks scrambling to climb up, Lu Yun hurriedly asked, "I wonder if there is any Dragon Soul Grass on this road to heaven?"

Without even turning his head, the python said, "There are many."

To be honest, Lu Yun was a little skeptical about what the python said. This secret realm was full of dangers, but the road to heaven was full of opportunities. It didn't seem realistic no matter how he looked at it.

However, Long Ying had already pulled Long Dapao towards the stairs.

"Hey, did you also hear what the giant python said?" Lu Yun asked.

"No matter whether what he said is true or not, there is no harm in going up and taking a look."

Lu Yun thought about it and felt that what Long Ying said made some sense. If not, he could just turn around and go back.

So he followed Long Ying and started climbing the stairs.

Long Dapao was tall and strong, and had already climbed to the third step, but that was where he stopped climbing.

No matter how Long Ying tried to persuade or even threaten him, Long Dapao just refused to leave.

Lu Yun came to the two of them and looked up at the mountain. Apart from the dozen or so steps within his sight, there was nothing but fog.

"Brother Dapao, your spirit has not recovered yet, so you can't be so naughty!" Lu Yun hurriedly comforted him.

"No! I won't go up. There's nothing fun up there, and there's a monster waiting to eat me!" Long Dapao flicked his sleeves and turned to fiddle with the little flower.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is Deng..."

Lu Yun was immediately frightened by his own words and broke out in a cold sweat.

He suddenly remembered something. When he was in the underworld, it was said that children could see things that ordinary people could not see. That was because children had pure hearts.

And isn’t Long Dapao now also a child at heart?

"What's wrong with you?" Long Ying suddenly asked.

Lu Yun looked up at the monks who were trying to climb up in the sky, and suddenly said, "I think what Brother Da Pao said is right. There may really be man-eating monsters up there."

Long Ying did not refute Lu Yun's words, and also looked upwards following his gaze.

The monk at the front could no longer be seen, and on the dozen or so steps, there were figures of a group of monks scattered around.

Their desire to survive seemed to be spreading outward.

"We are only here to look for the Dragon Soul Grass, not to compete with them for the way to heaven." Long Ying said, "If we don't go up and take a look, how can we find the existence of the Dragon Soul Grass?"

As they were talking, more than thirty monks suddenly gathered below.

Lu Yun looked and saw Taoist Master Daoxuan among them.

Taoist Master Daoxuan was holding Little Darling and waving at Lu Yun.

Lu Yun was feeling very annoyed and waved at Taoist Master Daoxuan.

Among those monks, some have already started to climb up, and the first one to do so is the one named Wind Fairy.

When she saw Lu Yun, she couldn't help but frown.

Above, the giant python's huge body had disappeared, and Long Dapao, holding the small flower in his hand, had begun to crawl down.

Lu Yun suddenly grabbed Long Dapao's wrist and pulled it upward with force, and Long Dapao returned to Lu Yun's side.

Long Dapao looked at Lu Yun in confusion, then threw himself into Long Ying's arms and cried in grievance.

Long Ying gently patted Long Dapao's back and comforted him in a low voice.

Lu Yun shook his head angrily.

"Can't you be a little gentler to him? Look how scared you are." Long Ying glared at Lu Yun fiercely.

At this time, Taoist Master Daoxuan had already come to Lu Yun's side.

Lu Yun hurriedly saluted.

"Haha, I didn't expect that the three of you would come here. Why don't you continue to climb up?" Taoist Xuan asked curiously.

"It's my eldest brother who said there are ferocious beasts up there waiting to eat people." Lu Yun just laughed it off and didn't take Long Dapao's words seriously.

"Oh?"

Taoist Master Daoxuan was stunned instead, and looked at the dragon cannon with narrowed eyes.

Then he walked forward and placed his palm on the top of Long Dapao's head.

Long Dapao's body shook and he stood there motionless.

half an hour.

Taoist Master Daoxuan withdrew his hand, but his expression looked very ugly.

"Your friend is missing a part of his soul. What exactly has he been through?" Taoist Master Daoxuan frowned.

"Senior, did you see anything?"

"To be honest, my friend, even if you get the Dragon Soul Grass and refine the Dragon Soul Pill, I'm afraid... you won't be able to cure his soul injury."

"This..." Lu Yun was stunned.

"Let me ask you, has he ever been stimulated by anything?"

Lu Yun shook his head.

He really didn't know what Long Dapao had experienced in the mine, and he had no idea how the mysterious organization separated Long Dapao's soul.

Now Long Dapao is stupid and foolish, he is no longer the Dapao brother he used to be.

Taoist Master Daoxuan took out a pill and handed it to Lu Yun.

"This is a soul-nourishing pill I got in my early years. Although it is only a third-grade elixir, it is better than nothing. Young friend, you should give it to him."

Lu Yun took the pill and as soon as he touched it, he knew that it was extraordinary.

"Thank you, senior."

Lu Yun hurriedly stuffed the soul-nourishing pill into Long Dapao's mouth.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no response from Dragon Cannon.

"Oh, I hope I am just worrying too much."

After saying this, Taoist Master Daoxuan continued to climb the stairs.

Soon, half an hour passed, and all the monks, including those who arrived later, had climbed to the highest step.

On the huge staircase, only Lu Yun and two other people were left.

Lu Yun withdrew his gaze from the stairs, turned around and said to Long Ying, "No matter what, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, I will not give up. You stay and watch him, I'll go up and take a look."
