At this moment, Lin Chen was merely a thousand zhang behind Li Chu. Under normal circumstances, such a distance could be covered in an instant.
However, on the eighteenth Heavenly Ladder, imbued with the Power of the Five Elements, the five forces, generating and overcoming each other, filled this ladder with a terrifying oppression, making each step forward extremely difficult.
The disheveled state of Li Chu at this moment was proof enough that this ladder was not to be taken lightly.
At the very front of this ladder, there were twelve steps and at the very top, there was a portal.
Obviously, reaching the front end of this ladder, ascending those twelve steps, and entering the portal would mean completing this trial. The victor would become the true and sole Inheritor of the Descending Heaven Hall, the new master here.
Li Chu had already noticed Lin Chen's approach. His fists clenched tightly, his eyes filled with hatred towards Lin Chen.
