章 128: I cleared the trials easily (3)

I started to climb the stairs.

When I took my first step, I felt nothing. It was the same for the second, third and so on. It wasn't until the hundredth step that I first felt a light tingle.

Even then, it was almost negligible. I felt nothing, so I continued to climb on.

Every hundred steps I could feel that the strain started to increase. After five hundred, it started to increase every ten steps and after reaching seven hundred, it became every five steps.

It was not like the strain didn't increase for every step taken but I didn't feel much difference.

The real trial started after I reached the nine hundredth step.

From then onwards, for every step taken, I can feel the stinging pain caused to my soul.

This trial was as I thought it would be. This was testing my soul but for what purpose? I was able to reach this far because my soul energy was very high.
