Chapter 40: The Mountain
Big birds shuttle in the clouds like thunder and lightning, large and small floating islands flash by, and a golden sea of clouds in the distance is incomparably magnificent. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Liu Qinghuan hugged the bird's neck tightly, and his eyes couldn't be opened by the rapid wind. It's really hard to die without a spiritual shield. Fortunately, the big bird flew extremely smoothly, otherwise Liu Qinghuan was really not sure if he could hold it. It was only after he got used to it that he felt better.
"Ahhh I don't know if I was infected by him, and the big bird under me also cried, and the long eagle chirped away like a cloud, and a desolate meaning swept the heavens and the earth.
"Huh?" Liu Qinghuan looked behind him in surprise, he seemed to see a figure waving his hands and jumping on a floating island just now, but the big bird flew too fast, and it flashed in a blink of an eye.
He began to pay attention to the floating islands he passed by, and found that many of them were full of people, dressed in the same clothes as the people from the Yunmengze Continent, and it seemed that they were all monks who participated in the trial this time.
I don't know if any big birds will pass through these places again. If he hadn't made the decision to climb on the back of the bird at that time, he would have faced the same fate as those people who were eliminated as soon as he entered the trial.
The big bird flew for two days without stopping, and finally flew out of the floating island area, Liu Qinghuan looked at a huge shadow in the distance with a face numb from the wind. The closer he got, the higher his head lifted and he almost fell backwards in the end.
This mountain rises from the sky, and the top cannot be seen at a glance. The mountain is so big that you can't see the edge at a glance.
The big bird circled among the mountains, landed on a protruding rock, and then stood one by one, directly lifting Liu Qinghuan to the ground.
"Hey, Brother Bird, don't go, don't leave me!" Liu Qinghuan cried and watched the big bird fly away without looking back, leaving him halfway up the mountain.
This big bird is very strange, as if it is very human, and even throwing him here seems to be deliberate. He looked up at the top of the mountain hidden in the mist, and then looked at the mountain at his feet, which was also hidden in the mist, which was like two choices.
His gaze became firm, and he began to look for a path to climb up. Although this mountain is almost straight up, there are many protruding rocks on the mountain wall, and a lot of grass and trees have grown, and there are many places to grasp. His eyes scanned like an eagle's eye, and he quickly traced routes in his mind.
It wasn't until the eyes were gradually congested that I finally chose a route that was not the most recent, but the most labor-saving. He closed his eyes and rested for a moment before he began to move.
Grasp the rock protrusion above with the fingers of both hands, keep your body as close to the mountain wall as possible, step firmly on the protrusion below with both feet, use the force of your fingers to pull your body up, and change your feet to another protruding rock block above, and so on, and climb up smoothly.
Half an hour later, Liu Qinghuan was already sweating like rain. He practiced the fourth layer of qi, and the degree to which his body had been refined by spiritual power was not high, and in this kind of climbing almost straight up and down, his physical strength was consumed extremely quickly. He gritted his teeth and held on for another half an hour, until he finally reached the pre-planned resting point, a rock that could barely sit down and rest.
I don't know if it's his delusion, he has a feeling that the higher he climbs, the heavier his body becomes. It's not obvious, but given the height of the mountain, it's hard to see how much gravity you have to experience to reach the top.
He took out the wild fruit he had picked during the climb from his bosom and took a big bite! At this time, he was tired and hungry, and he desperately needed to replenish his strength.
As soon as the plump and juicy wild fruit enters the abdomen, it turns into a stream of heat that flows through the whole body, and every sore muscle seems to be immersed in warm hot water, and fatigue quickly disappears. Liu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the red wild fruit in his hand in surprise. At that time, he would pick this wild fruit, because he saw the big bird eat it, and he dared to eat it after making sure that it was not poisonous, but he didn't expect it to have such a miraculous effect, so he would have picked more if he knew it!
Eating a few wild fruits in his arms, the exhaustion in his body disappeared completely, Liu Qinghuan touched his arm, and felt that there was full strength flowing in his flesh and bones.
It's a really good thing, and if you can take some out of here, it might be extremely useful later when it matters most.
When I think about it this way, I have enough momentum to climb again. He re-planned a path that included all the places where there was fruit, not only the red berries, but also some other kinds of fruits, and even the peculiarly growing plants and thick tubers that intrigued him. Digging all the way, I was so busy that the burden made of the coat was visibly bulging. It's just that as he goes up, the resistance increases, his physical strength is consumed more, and the burden deflats at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Day after day, after five days of climbing, the resistance was so great that it was like carrying a boulder, and he had to stick his body to the wall of the mountain, and the top of the mountain was still hidden in the clouds and mist, with no end in sight.
The red fruit could no longer replenish the energy he had expended, so he took the risk and tried another yellow fruit, only to find that the effect was even better. This kind of yellow fruit slowly appears when the effect of the red fruit is not enough to withstand the consumption, until there are more and more on the mountain wall behind, and the red fruit can not be seen.
However, although the fruit can offset the physical fatigue, it cannot resist the increasing resistance.
He had a hunch that this mountain was very likely to be used by the four major sects to test new disciples, and after thinking about it, he breathed a sigh of relief, because he didn't have to worry about not being able to find the entry token that he hadn't seen so far, as long as he climbed this mountain, he would be able to see it.
At this time, Liu Qinghuan had already taken off his shirt, and climbed up step by step firmly and calmly, his bare back was covered with sweat, but his lines were tight and his muscles were full. After the heavy pressure of these days, the originally slightly thin body has become much stronger, and after eating a lot of strange fruits, it has actually had a refining effect.
For another ten days, the yellow fruit gradually disappeared, and another purple fruit appeared. Liu Qinghuan is no longer resting, but climbing up without sleep. Every step is as hard as moving an entire mountain. The skin on his body cracked and showed blood marks under the heavy pressure, and he quickly recovered under the action of the purple fruit, but the pain in it was indescribable.
"I can't give up! I want to join the sect! I want to cultivate immortals!" Liu Qinghuan roared in his heart, his eyes were so blood-red that he seemed to be able to breathe fire, and every finger was already bloody and fleshy!
He raised his head with difficulty and looked up, and the top of the mountain, which had been hidden in the mist, finally revealed its true face!
"Hahaha!" Liu Qinghuan laughed, the madness and firmness in his eyes were even worse, but his heart was so calm that he was like watching others climbing the mountain, the weight of his body and the pain that was about to break suddenly couldn't be felt at all at this moment, he just stared at the top of the mountain, moving his hands and feet quickly!
A large amount of blood gushed out of his body like a spring, his skin was shattered inch by inch, and his bones were also full of cracks, just before his body completely collapsed! Liu Qinghuan stepped on the ground on the top of the mountain like a bloody man!
