At that moment, Andy's words revealed just how terrifying the staircase truly was.

Adrian's expression showed surprise as he tried to comprehend the situation.

What was the nature of this staircase? There seemed to be some mysterious force at play, explaining why both Andy and Finnian were struggling.

Andy cautioned, "Adrian, have your men stay at the base for now. Don't let them rush up. The dangers on this staircase aren't trivial. If they ascend recklessly, there's no telling what danger awaits them.

"If someone triggers those dangers, it could be catastrophic. The staircase is weighed down by crushing gravity, and at random intervals, it strikes with inexplicable force. Their ascent could end in disaster."

As Andy spoke, Adrian glanced at Tyler's group and grew serious. "Sir Tyler, stay here for now. Rushing up blindly might lead to unforeseen consequences. Let me ascend first, scout the situation, and see if it's feasible to bring you all up later."

Finnian chuckled lightly.

The possibility left him in awe.Was the crimson lightning truly that formidable?He struggled to comprehend it but couldn't suppress a surge of joy.

Let's see how you survive this. With the gravitational force on you now exceeding 80,000 units, you're nothing but an overconfident ant."Adrian shot him an icy glance. "Oh? Then you're not even on par with an ant."The Holy Son trembled with fury. He burned with the urge to strike Adrian down.Adrian had become both his greatest humiliation and the demon haunting his heart. Unless he destroyed Adrian, his future ambitions would remain stifled.In the distance, Kurt watched grimly. He hadn't expected Adrian to grow so formidable or to trigger such pivotal events.Adrian's suppression of the Holy Son only confirmed the man's long-held suspicion: Adrian was no ordinary immortal.Now that Adrian had p
