The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1549

James ascended the first few steps of the Skyward Stairway with relative ease.

However, he started having a challenging time upon reaching the fourth step.

It felt like a mountain was tied to his feet.

“Movell!” James shouted in defiance.

He lifted his leg abruptly and went past the fourth step.

After climbing the Fourth Stair, he was sweating profusely.

Sweat had soaked his whole body and seeped into his clothes.

After climbing the fourth step, he proceeded carefully. He collected himself and allowed his True Energy to spread throughout his body to resist the pressure brought on by the fourth step.

The Skyward Stairway was imaginary and did not exist in reality.

He was the only one that perceived himself ascending the stairway. Others could not see it at all.
