Chapter 1376 Nothing
“Mr. Flaxseed!” Jared hurried forward to help him up. “T-This restrictive energy is too powerful,” Flaxseed commented as his expression turned grim. “Get some rest. I’ll walk up the stairs,” Jared offered.
Before he could leave, Flaxseed stopped him hastily and stuck a charm on his body. “Be careful. The further you go, the stronger the restrictive energy is. If you can’t take it any longer, come down. No matter how valuable the treasure is, it’s more important to stay alive,” Flaxseed reminded him.
Jared put on a solemn expression and nodded gravely. He took a deep breath before placing his foot on the first step.
At once, his body began glowing, signaling that his Golem Body had taken effect to defend him against the horrifying power.
As Jared’s strength increased, his Golem Body would glow brighter.
Flaxseed grew increasingly nervous as he stared at Jared—he had no idea whether the latter was strong enough to climb to the top of the stairs.
With the help of the charm stuck to his body and the defense of Golem Body, Jared was able to walk in a swift manner without any restrictions.
He soon picked up speed as though the restriction was useless against him.
“Oh, what a talented man!” Flaxseed sighed as he stared at Jared’s back.
Halfway up the stairs, Jared slowed down without warning.
His legs began trembling, and cold sweat formed on his brows. He seemed to have difficulty walking forward.
Boom!
Suddenly, the charm on Jared’s body erupted into flames and was soon burned to ashes.
Clenching his jaw, Jared continued going up the stairs.
He soon reached the seventieth step.
By then, Jared was already bowing. Every step he took left a deep imprint on the stairs.
Jared felt as if a mountain was pinning him down, and he was suffocating.
Even so, he did not stop as he gritted his teeth and persisted.
When Jared arrived at the ninetieth step, his Golem Body exploded into pieces and disappeared. His muscles were exposed to the air, bearing the surmounting pressure.
There were only nine steps left, but Jared felt as if his entire body was about to get crushed.
His eyes turned bloodshot as he started charging ahead.
The sweat trickled down his body and turned red as it mixed with his blood.
Jared was shuddering violently. It took him all his might to take one step.
Seeing how tough it was, Flaxseed yelled hastily, “Jared, if you can’t hold on, come down!”
However, Jared clenched his jaw and moved forward as though he had not heard Flaxseed at all.
His blood flowed to the ground and left a trail behind him.
“Ah!”
It was the final step, and Jared felt as though his blood was boiling. His veins were about to get crushed.
Letting out a thunderous roar, he released all his spiritual energy.
Suddenly, Jared stumbled and fell on the top of the stairs.
At once, all the pressure disappeared. Jared’s muscles started contracting swiftly as the pressure was now gone.
Lying on the ground, he gasped for fresh air.
Shortly after, Jared rose to his feet slowly. He glanced at the white marble throne and saw two realistic dragon carvings on it. That was it.
The throne was one with the stairs, so it was impossible to take it away.
“Jared, are there any magical items up there?” Flaxseed asked loudly when he saw Jared standing up.
Jared shook his head. “There’s nothing except for the throne.”
“This shouldn’t be happening. This is the last structure, so there must be a magical item here!” Flaxseed furrowed his brows and fell into deep thought.
Caressing the white marble throne gently, Jared sat down on it out of curiosity.
Boom!
A terrifying flash of light came down from the ceiling when Jared sat down and covered him completely.
