Passing the Ascension Stairway

At this moment, Ace was only a step away from climbing the 1500th stairstep. The white cloud was also a few inches away from him, and now he could feel a terrifying oppressive might from that cloudy white mist. 

'The formation here is probably at the same level as the imperial demon domain over even stronger. No wonder this entire area is a black-fate location. I have to be more careful once I enter their core area.' Ace thought calmly. 

However, his outward appearance was now haggard, as his face was pale, and he was filled with sweat as if he would fall down right at this moment. With gritted his teeth and his eyes filled with great mirth, Ace took the final step while trembling. 

No one would believe that he was just acting as long as Ace won't reveal it himself.

With extreme difficulty, he pulled himself onto the 1500th step, and the moment both his steps landed on the stone stairstep, Ace felt all the Qi radiation pressure vanish.
