With the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade in hand, Fang Bai's ability to resist the oppressive force of the Heavenly Ladder increased drastically, and he immediately felt much lighter.
Gripping the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, surrounded by swirling Essence Energy, Fang Bai quickened his pace while continuously slashing forward with all his might.
The crimson blade arcs cleaved through wave after wave of crushing pressure, reducing the obstruction on Fang Bai's path considerably.
Taking advantage of this, Fang Bai accelerated his advance.
Within just a few breaths, Fang Bai's figure had vanished from the sightlines of Gu Yan and the others.
"Seventy-six… seventy-seven… seventy-eight…"
With each step upward, Fang Bai shouted loudly to bolster his courage and amplify his momentum.
