"Congratulations on passing the second trial, Master." Tian'er appeared before him shortly after he returned to the Stairway to Heaven.

Yuan turned to look at her with a serious expression on his face, "Tian'er, I have some questions for you before I continue the trial. Why did the Perfect Tempering Ginseng affect my body even though that shouldn't be possible?"

Tian'er tilted her head and spoke in a calm voice, "Why shouldn't it be possible?"

"I mean… I get that I can learn techniques while inside the Stairway to Heaven, but the treasures affecting my actual body doesn't make any sense. Everything should be a simulation, so it shouldn't be possible to actually affect my body."

A profound smile appeared on Tian'er's small face as she spoke, "While it's true that the trials are all simulations created by the Stairway to Heaven… The treasures are actually real. The Stairway to Heaven is more than it appears. It's not only a bridge that connects the Nine Heavens, it's also a vault full of treasures stored by the previous Masters."

Yuan's body trembled in shock after hearing Tian'er's words.

"The Stairway to Heaven… is a treasure vault…?" he muttered in a dazed voice.

"That's right. However, only the Master has access to these treasures, hence why nobody is aware of it." Tian'er continued.

Yuan fell to his knees after learning the truth and coming to a realization.

'I could've acquired so many priceless treasures at the Colossal Tower, but I wasted such a chance because I assumed the treasures were fake! What a blunder!' he cried inwardly.

"Wait! Even if I didn't acquire the treasures during the trial, the treasure should still exist somewhere in the Stairway to Heaven, right?!" Yuan suddenly asked Tian'er.

She nodded and said, "If you wish to have access to the vault, you'll need to continue climbing the Stairway to Heaven, as this place is also a training device for you."

"I understand. Thank you for the explanation."

Yuan climbed the staircase shortly after, ascending to the third trial.
