The instant Wang Teng stepped on the stairs, the purple runes brightened. It was dazzling.
Invisible pressure bore down from the sky, landing on his head and shoulders in an attempt to push him down.
Even the onlookers below felt it. Their expressions changed. Some weaker ones almost kneeled on the ground.
"This is scary!"
"The pressure released by the white jade stairs after the activation of the runes is vastly different from before. When the nobles climbed it, we didn't feel anything. However, we can feel the terrifying pressure now."
"Wang Teng has to bear so much pressure after just stepping on the stairs. His talent must be high!"
…
Wang Teng didn't care about the discussion. He focused his attention on climbing the stairs.
The atmosphere suddenly turned a little special and dangerous. There were various spiritual disturbances affecting one's willpower.
Wang Teng was surprised.
