Chapter 716
Henry followed Ss. After walking for more than 20 minutes, he saw a stone house. The stone
house was built on ck rocks, and its overall colour was simr to the colour of the ground. At first
nce, it was really hard to notice it.
"This is where I live." Ss introduced to Henry. Instead of taking Henry into the stone house, Ss
walked past the stone house and continued to move forward. "Are you a little surprised that the
situation of the 18th floor of Hell is different from what you thought when you first heard of it?"
"Indeed." Henry nodded.
Ss smiled and said to Henry as he walked, "When I was thrown into this cage, each floor was not
as wide as it is now. There were 18 hells on the 18th floor, and there were nearly 100 people
imprisoned on each floor. They were all extremely vicious people. Everyonepeted for
resources, stole each other''s treasures, Spiritual Stones, and ughter each other. Some people
fought from the first floor to the 18th floor, with unparalleledbat strength. But finally, they found
that no matter how much resources they grabbed, they were still trapped here. Their strength was
useless."
Ss pointed to the top and asked, "Are you curious about how the sunshine is passed down?"
Henry looked up at the sky and did not speak.
"There''s only ayer of sand floating above us. With the Barrier Formation obstructing it, there''s no
way for the sand to fall." Ss sighed. "This formation blocks the sand, but it also blocks us."
"A barrier... Formation..." Henry murmured Ss''s words. After arriving here, he had too many
doubts.
"Come on, young man, we have to hurry up." Ss suddenly took a step forward. His one step was
10 metres long. ''TH take you to see something that you consider magical."
Henry opened his eyes wide and looked at Ss, who could take a step forward for more than ten
meters. After all, there was no way to use internal Qi here. It was impossible for Henry to do this
with his own strength.
Originally, when Henry had just tested the gas from the Spiritual Stone, he had unconsciously
walked nine meters in three steps. That was because his body had inhaled the gas from the stone,
and the strength of his body had been more than doubled.
In this world, the hardest part was not travelling a thousand kilometres in a day, but taking a step
further.

Henry needed three steps to walk for nine meters, while Ss took one step and went ten metres
forward. This did not mean that Ss''s physical strength was only three or four times stronger than
Henry''s physical quality, it also meant that his physical strength was hundreds of times stronger
than Henry''s physical strength!
Henry took a deep breath and followed him quickly. Although Henry had tried his best to speed
himself up, Ss still hung him in the distance. Henry found that Ss just took a walk and was not
rushing with all his strength.
Henry sighed with emotion in his heart. Sure enough, the ancient people were much stronger than
modern people. When he just discovered Qi, he specially went to some museums. He saw the
ancient soldiers'' weapons and armours weighing up to 50 kilograms, and soldiers, who were
carrying such equipment, marched quickly and then entered the battle.
Just like now, Henry had thought that his physical strength had reached a limit, but now, he was still
easily shaken off.
He sprinted at full speed for nearly an hour. Just when Henry''s body couldn''t take it anymore, he
saw a stone wall, which extended all the way to the left and right. He couldn''t see the end, and the
stone wall went straight up to the sky.
The stone wall was also covered withyers of stone steps as they ascended all the way up to the
sky.
"Let''s go. I''ll take you to feel this formation. There are some things that you can''t understand even if
I tell you." Ss stepped on the stone steps. Then he jumped hard and his whole body rose more
than 20 meters. Just as he was about to fall, he stepped on another stone step. In two or three
seconds, he flew nearly 100 meters into the air. Ss''s flying eaves were as light as swallows. It
could be said that Ss could perfectly control every part of his body.
Henry said to himself, "Although I can use this method to quickly climb up the stone steps, it''s
absolutely impossible for me to be as elegant as Ss."
The stone steps on this floor were 2900 meters high. Due to such a height, even Henry was a little
tired. At the moment, he could not breathe. If he was not careful, he would be smashed to pieces.
Ss arrived at the top of the stone wall in less than a minute. There was a tform at the top of the
wall.
"The tform was built by the seniors who stayed here before, but their bodies rotted after such a
long time." Ss saw Henry getting on the tform and said, "This is the closest ce to the earth."
Henry looked up and found that less than three meters above his head, there was a hazy area with
weak sunshineing from the sky. Standing here, he could clearly see the slowly flowing sand
and soil above him.
"Before we mastered the nting technique, this ce was called a market," Ss said with a
laugh.
"A market?" Henry was confused.
"That''s right. This was the ce for everyone to buy things." Ss reached his hand into his clothes.
He then took out a piece of gold and threw it up with all his might.
Henry watched as the piece of gold rushed into the sand and soil above.
Ss said, "We would use the gold to attract the locals and then take something from them."
Henry opened his mouth and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ss.
"I know what you''re asking. The formations here only target people who possess Qi and only works
one direction. In other words, the people who are trapped in this cage cannot exit unless we
disperse our own cultivation. However, at our age, the moment we disperse our cultivation, we
would probably die. The things or even other people from the outside can all fall into this ce. Of
course, the density of these things... hmm, it should be the density. This is something I learned from
a talking box ten years ago. The density of these things must be greater than that of sand."
At this point, Ss exerted himself to jump up. Just as Ss touched the haze above his head, an
earthy yellow light instantly appeared in front of Ss and bounced Ss back like a spring, so that
Ss could not jump out of the sand like the gold he had just thrown.
"This is a formation, a formation that can lock the whole world." Ss had a helpless expression on
his face.
Henry looked at the top of his head with a dull look. At the moment when the yellow light appeared,
he felt a strong sense of crisis, as if the whole sky was copsing and pressing down on him.
Ss said, "Previously, everyone was fighting on the 18th floor of the Hell. But when they realized
that no one could break through this formation, they gradually stopped fighting and turned to
another direction. Seniors used hundreds of years to explore the way out, but in the end, they
ended up with no results. Thus, they simply epted the facts and regarded this ce as a small
world they had to live in."
