The hottest months are June and July.

The scorching sunshine and scorching hot weather turned the entire earth into a big furnace.

Tieniu Town.

It was noon at this time, and the sun was shining brightly.

"call!!"

On a long stone staircase.

Qin Feiyang was walking up step by step, sweating profusely and panting like an ox.

The stone staircase slopes upward at 45 degrees, with a total of 999 steps, leading to a huge palace.

Every step became hot under the sun's exposure.

Sweat drips and evaporates instantly.

Make a squeaking sound.

Qin Feiyang is only a fifteen-year-old boy, but he has maturity and stability that his peers do not have.

He is 1.75 meters tall, with a slightly thin body and handsome features, but his face is pale and bloodless, giving the impression that he is a weak young man who is sick.

No!

Not like.

He is a patient himself.

Moreover, he is already terminally ill!

His life will end in five days.

With the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps and the bad weather, even a normal person would not be able to reach the top, let alone a sick person like him.

But stepping onto this stone staircase is his only chance to survive.

It can even change the fate of his life!

five years ago.

Qin Feiyang is the prince of the Qin Empire, with noble status and extraordinary talents.

At only ten years old, he had already become a Nine-Star Martial Arts Master. At that time, he was known as a monster that would never appear in ten thousand years.

It can be said that he has been the star of everyone's attention since he was a child, and he is the most promising person among all the princes to inherit the throne.

He is also the emperor's favorite prince.

But.

Just when he was in his glory, many auras were added to him, and a sudden change suddenly came.

Because of this sudden change, he was forced by others to swallow the 'Elling Pill', and was then mercilessly expelled from the imperial palace, expelled from the imperial capital, and exiled to Tieniu Town.

The Erling Pill is an extremely vicious pill. Once you take it, you will not only lose all your cultivation, you will never be able to practice again, you will also be plagued by diseases all day long, and you can only live until the age of fifteen.

In five days, he will turn fifteen!

Five years have passed.

The Qin Empire still stands on this continent as a king, ruling all directions.

What about him?

In order to survive, we are struggling here.

He is not convinced!

Countless times, he swore in his heart that one day, he would return to the imperial capital and make those who had wronged him pay the price!

The palace at the top of the stone staircase is his only hope.

gradually.

His legs were weak and extremely sore.

Every time he climbed a step, it was extremely difficult for him!

He was sweating heavily and he was already dehydrated.

The lips were dry and cracked, and streaks of blood appeared.

I started to feel dizzy and dizzy.

He stopped on a step, panting heavily to regain his lost strength.

at the same time.

He looked at the top of the stone staircase, a determined light shining in his weak eyes.

At the end of the stone staircase, a majestic palace stands, magnificent and magnificent.

The palace door is closed.

Next to it, stands a black stone tablet, which can be more than ten meters high, with two eye-catching characters engraved on it.

——The Dan Palace!

Like an iron hook and a silver stroke, it is vigorous and powerful, and there is a faint and shocking oppression.

This is a place that countless people dream of entering.

Because here, there are all kinds of elixirs.

There are some elixirs that can detoxify hundreds of poisons, eliminate all kinds of diseases, and ensure a safe life.

There are some elixirs that can cleanse the physical body, regenerate people, and embark on the path of cultivation.

There are even rumors that there are some legendary magic pills that not only have life, but can also fly to the sky, escape from the earth, and overturn rivers and seas. If you are lucky enough to take it, you can become a god revered by the world overnight.

so.

The Alchemy Palace is a very sacred place!

Every disciple of the Alchemy Palace is an awe-inspiring being.

Even the lowest level alchemist, there are countless people who compliment and flatter him just to get a pill.

Qin Feiyang's target is a pill called 'Marrow Cleansing Pill'.

The Marrow Cleansing Pill is the key to his rebirth!

In order to obtain the Marrow Cleansing Pill, he didn't even know how many times he had been here.

However, every time, he was seriously ill and could not reach the top and reach the Alchemy Palace.

But this time, he has no retreat and no room to give up!

Because in five days, he will die.

If you want to survive, you must reach the top!

He took steps hard, gritted his teeth, and continued climbing.

boom!

At this moment, the closed palace door quickly opened.

A woman about thirty years old, wearing a long red dress, strode out of the palace.

She stood at the edge, looking down at Qin Feiyang below, and said lightly: "Qin Feiyang, do the math for yourself, how many times have you been here? Don't you know how to give up?"

Qin Feiyang didn't answer, buried his head and gritted his teeth to climb.

This woman, he would see every time he came here, her name was Ma Hongmei, and she was the deacon elder of Dan Palace.

Of course, she is also an alchemist.

It is precisely because of her identity as an alchemist that this woman is conceited, arrogant, and does not take anyone seriously. She has humiliated him over the years.

so.

He didn't bother to speak up lest he humiliate himself.

However.

His attitude made Ma Hongmei even more annoyed.

She pursed her lips with a touch of sarcasm and said: "Don't say that this elder looks down on you. No matter how many times you come, the result will be the same. You should be a jerk as soon as possible. Don't be an eyesore here."

"Elder Ma, you can close your eyes and not look."

Qin Feiyang stopped and looked up at her, with a trace of anger deep in his eyes.

Ma Hongmei laughed angrily and said, "Oh, it makes sense, right? OK, I'll tell you clearly, even if you reach the top, I won't give you the Marrow Cleansing Pill."

Qin Feiyang's hands couldn't help but clenched tightly.

But in the end.

He endured it and continued climbing.
