Chapter 711: Gu Shooting Mountain

After arranging everything in the Yunxin Dan Pavilion, Qin Lang, accompanied by Jiang Hongyang and Xu Tao, rushed to Gushu Mountain, a hundred miles away from the Heavenly City, accompanied by the Jiang family and the rest of the Xu family's more than 20 people who participated in this Heavenly Desolate Continent Elite Competition.

The moment they saw Qin Lang, these twenty or so people also had a face full of loss, Qin Lang didn't have a trace of the strong man's momentum that looked at the world and couldn't be beaten, it was too far from the rumors, and they even suspected that the matter about Qin Lang was completely groundless.

"Brother Hongyang, I'm curious, since we can go to Gushu Mountain three days in advance to grab a favorable position, why don't we get there early, so that we can occupy the best position early?"

The team moved forward quickly, and a girl with a childish face approached Jiang Hongyang's side, her little face was full of curiosity, and she asked.

Obviously, it was also her first time participating in the Heavenly Desolate Continent Elite Competition, and she didn't know about these things.

"Do you think Gushu Mountain is so easy to get close to? It is perennially filled with poisonous gas, and it is the first of the ten forbidden places in the Heavenly Desolate Continent, even if the Martial Emperor is strong and enters it by mistake, he will definitely die. Only in the first three days of the seven-year Heavenly Desolate Continent Elite Tournament will the poisonous gas that pervades there be eliminated and we can enter it. ”

Jiang Hongyang explained.

"The first of the ten forbidden places where the strong of the Martial Emperor will definitely die, what a terrifying place!" The girl's beautiful eyes were full of shock, and she said worriedly, "Then will the poisonous gas suddenly appear again as soon as we enter it, then we will all die!"

"How is it possible!" Jiang Hongyang shook his head with a smile, "Do you think that the middle-grade spirit veins that so many families have signed up for participating in the competition are for nothing?"

"Oh, no wonder you need so many medium-grade spiritual veins when you sign up, it turns out to expel the poisonous gas that pervades the Gu Shooting Mountain!"

The girl's face was abrupt and nodded.

Almost every family participating in the competition has paid about ten medium-grade spirit veins, all of which add up to an extremely terrifying astronomical amount!

Jiang Hongyang smiled and did not continue to speak.

The speed of the whole team was extremely fast, and more than two hours later, a high mountain looming in the clouds and mist appeared in everyone's field of vision, which was the rumored Gushu Mountain.

Qin Lang raised his eyes and looked at Gushu Mountain, covering an extremely wide area, dozens of miles square, as they got closer and closer, they could vaguely see a towering peak in the center of Gushu Mountain, majestic and magnificent, looking like a graceful giant girl standing on the top of the mountain, making everyone's eyes shine.

This was the first time Qin Lang had seen Gushu Mountain with his own eyes, and the whole person was also shocked by the scenery in front of him.

In Zhuangzi's "Wandering Away" there is a description of Gushu Mountain:

"The mountain of contempt is inhabited by gods and men; the skin is like ice and snow, and the covenant is like a virgin; it does not eat grains, it sucks the wind and drinks dew; it rides the clouds, and it flies the dragon, and swims beyond the four seas; its spirit is condensed, so that things are not defective and the valley is ripe. ”

It tells the story of a peerless beauty like a fairy living on Gushu Mountain, who can soar through the clouds and fog, control the dragon to fly to the sky and the earth, and gallop all over the world.

At this moment, Qin Lang even had a feeling that what Zhuangzi described was not a mountain range on the earth at all, but this Gushu Mountain in front of him!

Moreover, the gods and men mentioned in Zhuangzi's text and the peerless beauty finally transformed into the towering peak in the center of Gushu Mountain.

At this moment, an idea was suddenly born in Qin Lang's mind, which even shocked him:

"Could it be that Zhuangzi also came to the Heavenly Desolate Continent and later returned to the earth, so that he created this popular masterpiece?"

"Wow, is this Gushu Mountain, the scenery is so beautiful, pine and cypress, surrounded by green mountains, gurgling water, this is clearly a fairyland on earth, it doesn't look like the first of the top ten forbidden places in the Heavenly Desolate Continent!"

The beautiful eyes of the girl of the Jiang family sparkled with fluorescence, and she was extremely intoxicated.

"What kind of fairyland on earth is this? Hehe, after three days, after that mysterious power is completely emanated, you will know what the real fairyland on earth is!" Jiang Hongyang smiled and said, "Let's go, we are not too early, you see that many families have already started to act at the foot of Gushu Mountain, we can't be too backward, otherwise the good places will be snatched away by others." ”

At this moment, it can be seen that many teams at the foot of Gushu Mountain have begun to climb, and the black pressure is overwhelming, obviously wanting to occupy some advantageous positions.

"Let's go, let's go!"

The crowd was impatient and hurried forward.

At the foot of the mountain, many of the strong men and slaves who had come to see off the contestants stopped.

There was a transparent corrugated energy shield at the foot of Gushu Mountain, and a martial artist who did not have a golden participation token could not cross that energy shield at all, and could only watch the clansmen of the family participating in the competition walk into Gushu Mountain.

Soon, it blended into the flow of people climbing the mountain and kept moving forward.

"Hmm, why do some of the teams stop after a short distance?"

As the flow of people going deeper into Gushu Mountain became less and less, Qin Lang frowned and wondered.

It stands to reason that the sooner they come to Gushu Mountain, the best and most advantageous position they can grab, and these teams can continue to move forward, but what puzzles Qin Lang is that many teams stop at the periphery and no longer advance.

"They've already picked the position they think they're most comfortable with, so naturally they're not going to move forward. ”

Jiang Hongyang directly scoffed at Qin Lang's question.

Xu Tao smiled and said:

"King Qin Dan, it's like this. There has always been an unwritten rule that the first-rate forces occupy the innermost position, the second-rate forces occupy a slightly inferior position, and the outermost position is divided by the third-rate forces. People tend to only seize the innermost and most advantageous territory in their own position circle, and generally few people break the rules. ”

Afraid that Qin Lang would not understand, Xu Tao continued to explain:

"Because if the second-rate forces occupy the position in the first-rate power circle, it is very likely that they will be snatched away by the first-class forces later, and the good positions in the second-rate forces will have already been carved up, but they can only compete with the third-rate forces to grab the outermost position, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"So that's the case!" Qin Lang nodded in understanding, he didn't expect that there would be so many doorways to seize the position of a Gu Shooting Mountain.

"Originally, you came out of a third-rate family, and you could only occupy the outermost position of Gushu Mountain, but you were lucky enough to meet our Jiang family and Xu family, and you can go to the innermost position occupied by the first-class forces to choose the position with our light. ”

Jiang Hongyang glanced at Qin Lang proudly, and took the lead in striding forward.

"Could it be that with my strength ranking in the top 100 on the land list, I can't rely on my own ability to choose a position in the first-class power circle?"

Qin Lang smiled coldly.

Qin Lang was very grateful to Jiang Hongyang and Xu Tao for telling him the information that he needed to come to Gusha Mountain in advance, but this was by no means the reason why Qin Lang had to swallow his anger and look at his face.
