The entire magnetization process in the two-leg organic spin ladder BIP-TENO is studied with an ultrahigh magnetic field of up to 150 T. Nontrivial multiple magnetization plateaus are observed, indicating there exist strong quantum correlations between spins. In addition to the previously reported 1/4 plateau, another plateau appears at 1/3 magnetization only when spins are decoupled to the lattice degree of freedom in the adiabatic limit. Spontaneous symmetry breaking is expected to occur with the spin-lattice decoupling induced by a fast evolution of external magnetic fields in the range of μs. Under the adiabatic condition, five fractional (1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, and 3/4) magnetization plateaus are likely to appear with an assumption that the magnetization saturates at around 160 T.
