"Sword Force Fifth Heavenly Layer, break!"

After he was suddenly attacked by the stunning sword light, five layers of sword force immediately burst out from his body, forming a shocking sword of light that slashed forward.

The two great sword auras clashed, immediately creating a monstrous wave of air, causing the surrounding air to churn violently.

Stepping onto the third step of the white jade stairs, Ye Chenfeng was attacked once again by the terrifying sword light. The light sword formed by the five layered sword energy shattered, and another bloody hole appeared on his chest.

With his body heavily injured again, Ye Chenfeng did not stop his steps. He endured the huge pain from his chest and stepped onto the fourth floor with a determined gaze.

Ye Zichen's body was continuously being attacked by the sword aura that surged out from the stone sword. The injuries on his body became more and more serious, and the blood that flowed out from his body had already dyed his clothes red.

However, Ye Zichen did not stop. He continued to release the Sword Force of the Fifth Heavenly Layer to weaken the Stone Sword Force, then continued to climb the eighth step while enduring the pain of the sword light piercing his body before finally stopping.

He silently closed his eyes, channeled the Soul Devouring Spell to quickly recover from his injuries, and at the same time, he controlled the mind devouring as well as deduced the Stone Sword Force to deepen his comprehension of the sword aura.

Ye Chenfeng had a feeling that if his comprehension of sword aura reached a whole new level and reached the sixth level of sword force, he would be able to block the attacks of the Stone Sword Force, go through the hundred sword steps and reach the golden-armored statue.

Time passed minute after minute. Under the analysis of the mind devouring brain, Ye Chenfeng's comprehension towards the sword aura became deeper and deeper, while nearly an hour had gone by.

"What's wrong with him? Why is he not moving? Has he forgotten that there is a time limit for him to step onto the Hundred Sword Step? When the time comes, he will be killed by the Hundred Sword Step." The tablet spirit looked at the motionless Ye Chenfeng and said slightly worriedly.

"He seems to be comprehending sword force." The truesoul's eyes flashed as it said, "But in such a short period of time, wanting to raise the sword energy to the sixth level is as difficult as ascending to the heavens."

When more than half an hour had passed, the meditating Ye Chenfeng finally woke up from his enlightenment. Two sharp sword light shot out from his opened eyes.

"I wonder how many levels I can climb with my current comprehension of Sword Force."

Ye Zichen knew that he did not have much time left, so he used his Sword Force of the Fifth Heavenly Layer to its maximum and stepped onto the ninth step.

"Boom!"

The two great sword forces clashed, and a series of snaking cracks appeared. The two great sword forces clashed for the span of five breaths before shattering at the same time, turning into large amounts of sword light fragments.

A few of the fragments of sword light entered Ye Chenfeng's body, injuring him.

However, compared to the sword light that pierced his body, the damage from the sword light was negligible. Ye Chenfeng stepped onto the tenth floor with his powerful fifth layer sword force.

"Yes, the fifth stage of the sword aura has been mastered."

When he felt Ye Chenfeng unleash his fifth form, a hint of surprise finally appeared on his calm face. He realized that Ye Chenfeng was much more terrifying than he imagined.

11th step, 12th step, 13th step …

Under the protection of the Mastery Stage's Fifth Heavenly Layer of Sword Force, Ye Zichen's pressure decreased drastically, and he quickly climbed the white jade stairs. Very quickly, he climbed up the forty-eighth floor with wounds all over his body.

At that moment, three quarters of the time was gone, leaving Ye Chenfeng only with half an hour.

However, Ye Zichen stopped walking and continued to close his eyes. As he circulated the Soul Devouring Technique to heal his injuries, he controlled the mind to deduce the power of the stone sword.

"Another flash of insight. He really can calm down." When the spirit tablet saw that, Ye Chenfeng actually entered a state of meditation once again, and said with a wry smile.

"This young man is not simple. Perhaps he really might have a chance of obtaining my Spirit Race's inheritance." The truesoul said slowly, its voice tinged with anticipation.

After about twenty more minutes, when he saw that two hours had been used up, a powerful sword force suddenly burst out from Ye Zichen's body, shooting into the empty space created by the sword force, causing ripples to appear in the air.

"Sixth Sky of Sword Force. I've finally comprehended it."

Feeling the sword energy in his body transforming, Ye Zichen revealed a faint smile, while a towering battle intent exploded out from his body.

"Sixth Heavenly Layer Sword Force. It seems like the Hundred Sword Step shouldn't be too difficult for him." His truesoul looked at Ye Chenfeng, who was emitting a monstrous sword aura, and spoke blandly.

"When he broke through the sword monument yesterday, he only comprehended the fourth level of the sword energy. On this day, he managed to raise his sword energy to the sixth level of the sky. This kind of talent is something only the Spirit Race has ever seen." The tablet spirit praised.

"That's right, this young man's talent is indeed terrifying. However, if he wants to obtain our Spirit Race's inheritance, he will need great luck. However, based on his performance just now, he should have a ten percent chance of obtaining our Spirit Race's inheritance." The truesoul nodded and said.

"Sword Force Sixth Heavenly Layer, break!"

Stepping onto the 49th step, Ye Zichen immediately controlled the 6th-level sword force to condense at a high level. He was able to shatter the stone sword force with a single sword strike, while his body did not suffer any damage.

Fifty stairs, fifty-one stairs, fifty-two stairs …

Under the sword energy of a level six heavens attack, the Hundred Sword Stairway seemed to be of no threat to Ye Chenfeng. Ye Chenfeng climbed up the stairs at an extremely fast speed, and in just five minutes, he had climbed up to the ninety-ninth step.

"Whew, I've finally reached the final step."

He did not blindly step onto the stairs, but stood on the ninety-nine flights of stairs, circulating the Soul Devouring Secret Art to recover the soul power that he had expended. He prepared to climb the hundred levels of stairs at his best condition, in order to withstand the final blow from the Hundred Sword Steps.

Roughly five minutes later, Ye Chenfeng, who had been in his best condition, stepped onto the stairs to the hundredth floor.

"Buzz buzz buzz …"

Nine ear-piercing sword hums sounded out. Nine sharp sword lights pierced out nine stone swords at the same time. They were like a rain of swords as they shot out streaks of piercing white light towards Ye Zichen.

"Sixth Heavenly Layer Sword Force, break!"

Ye Zichen's pupils constricted. A terrifying six layered sword aura surged out from his body, carrying a shocking destructive force, as he slashed down on the nine sword light.

"Rumble!"

A deafening explosion sounded as the terrifying sword forces fiercely clashed against each other on the 100th step.

After the nine rays of sword light resisted for ten breaths, they were finally broken by Ye Chenfeng's six layered swords, and disappeared into thin air.

The next moment, the sword force space above the Hundred Sword Steps disappeared, and the true spirit and the tablet spirit appeared in front of Ye Chenfeng.
