Chapter 1326: Exploring Dinghai Peak (Part II)
Is it finally time to get to the point?" Zhan Chen thought silently in his heart, knowing that there is no good thing in the world for no reason.
Sori said, "Yes, it seems that you understand. ”
"It's just that I don't understand what I can do for my seniors with my cultivation. ”
Solri sighed and said, "I need some cold true iron, but unfortunately there is a strange prohibition in that place. ”
"What is Cold Soul True Iron?" Zhan Chen asked curiously.
"It's a four-star top-notch refining material. Zhan Chen, do you know why everyone likes to go to Dinghai Peak to practice? Not only because this place contains a large amount of law power for comprehension, but also because this place is also a natural treasure house, in which there are many rare elixirs and refining materials that are extremely difficult to find in the outside world. ”
"What I want to ask is what kind of prohibition is that, which makes the seniors find it tricky?"
"The Chill True Iron Mine I found was in the depths of a cavern where there was a group of Chill Eaters who were besieged and nearly killed the last time I went in. ”
"What's going on? Not even you, let alone me. ”
"This is going back to the prohibition I said, the effect of that prohibition is to make the cultivation of the Cold Devouring Demon Monster become as high as the intruder, that is to say, I am a six-star stellar realm powerhouse, and after entering the secret realm, I will also encounter a whole group of Cold Devouring Demon Monsters with three-star top-tier combat power, and with my strength, I can't break through them at all to get the Cold Spirit True Iron, now do you understand?"
"So you found me?"
"Yes, but the first time I saw you, I felt a power in your body that was far superior to cultivation, so I found you to complete this task for me. ”
"Then why don't you find someone else?" Zhan Chen was a little puzzled.
Sori smiled and said: "Because I think you are the most suitable candidate, other candidates have long been ruled out by me for various reasons, besides, as long as you successfully get those precious refining materials for me, I will also give you additional rewards, when the time comes, pills, star weapons, star crystals or exercises, as long as I can come up with whatever you want, this condition is good." ”
"Okay, I'll do everything I can to get what you want. Zhan Chen thought about it for a moment and immediately agreed.
Sori smiled, "That's great, without further ado, we'll leave right away." ”
"Please also ask the seniors to lead the way. ”
The two of them also broke into the dense forest one after the other, and Zhan Chen looked around and found that he was surrounded by all kinds of strange ancient trees.
I don't know how many years these ancient trees have grown on Dinghai Peak, one by one towering into the clouds, the short ones are more than 50 meters, and the high ones are hundreds of meters.
The star power floating in the forest was extremely pure, and it was no less than the cultivation room he used when he was in the retreat of the Yingwu Gate.
You must know that the star power in the cultivation room is formed by the drive of the formation, but here it is naturally formed, and it has to be breathtaking.
Solri glanced at him and smiled, "Little brother, you must think that it would be great if you could stay here all the time." ”
"Yes, who wouldn't want to?" Even if you don't want to cultivate here, your physique and cultivation will continue to improve.
"The idea is good, but each monk has been in Dinghai Peak for less than three months. ”
"Is there any reason for this?"
"Yes, it's not prescribed by someone, it's limited by the laws here, every day we stay here, we will be repelled by the power of the rules of this world, and this rejection is superimposed, and when it accumulates to a certain point, it will attack and push us out of this space. ”
Zhan Chen thought for a while and asked:
"According to you, the amount of time people spend here is not fixed. ”
"Yes, three months is only the longest time, and some people can only stay for a month. ”
"A month – what does the length of stay depend on?"
"It still depends on personal strength, but don't misunderstand, it's not that the higher the cultivation, the longer the person stays, because the higher the cultivation, the greater the spatial repulsion, or it depends on your personal comparison with the strength of the same level, so Zhan Chen, you have a great advantage, which is another reason why I chose you. ”
Zhan Chen understood a little, and asked again: "Then is the place where we are going is far away?"
"Yes, at our current speed, it will take at least a month and a half to get from here to the destination, and I will stay in Dinghai Peak for two months at most. ”
Speaking of this, Sori looked at Zhan Chen behind him: "And you may be able to stay for three months." ”
"Can you only stay for three months at most?" a hint of disappointment flashed in Zhan Chen's eyes.
"Three months, if you don't have absolute strength, I'm afraid you don't want to stay longer for a day, although there are adventures in the forest, but there are also huge risks, don't take it lightly!"
Zhan Chen didn't speak, but he was thinking in his heart: "It's just that I can't get a glimpse of the demeanor of the Deep Sea Venerable, it's a pity." ”
Suddenly, there was a roar in the forest, interrupting Zhan Chen's thoughts, and he couldn't help but stop, looking at his left front, surprised.
Sori silently read: "It's coming, Zhan Chen, you stay behind me and pay attention to safety." ”
"Okay. Zhan Chen didn't hold it up, because just listening to the voice of the person who came, he knew that it was not an existence that he could deal with.
It was too late, and a tiger with a scarlet core on its forehead came out of the forest.
Its size is similar to that of an ordinary tiger, but its strength is firmly at the three-star intermediate level, which is equivalent to the level of a four-star star realm.
"Yes!" Solri snorted and punched the tiger head.
Before the tiger could scream, its body turned into a blood mist, leaving only the crystal nucleus, which was grabbed by Sori, and then thrown to Zhan Chen, saying, "I'll give this to you." ”
Zhan Chen was stunned for a moment and subconsciously caught the crystal nucleus, and his heart was ecstatic, this is the beast core of a stellar star beast, if it is used by Yaya and Xiao Yan, it can make their cultivation improve by not knowing how much.
"Senior, this gift is a bit expensive-"
"Anyway, it's useless for me, there are more star beasts in this forest, and I can collect a lot of them at once as long as I want. Sori said lightly.
But Zhan Chen's heart was quite unsettled, what was difficult to get by himself with all his hard work, but he could easily get it among high-level monks, all of which stemmed from strength.
"Let's hurry. ”
Sori quickened his pace, and Zhan Chen struggled to keep up.
This Dinghai Peak has a special law, which causes cultivators to only hike the mountain like mortals, and the more they get to the top, the more they feel an invisible pressure pressing on their shoulders.
At first, he didn't feel anything, but when Zhan Chen reached a height of 5,000 meters, he felt that his legs were filled with lead, and it was simply difficult to move an inch.
Fortunately, he had the experience of cultivating under many times the pressure, and he was able to grit his teeth and hold on.
Sori looked back at him, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and said, "Zhan Chen, it's good that you can hold on to this place with your cultivation, let's go to the front and rest for a while, there is a rest point there, and a magic circle has been laid around it, which can resist the pressure of this mountain." ”
"There is still such a place on Dinghai Peak
Zhan Chen said curiously.
"Of course, but it takes a lot of precious materials to lay down this kind of spirit array, and the ancestors also set up the spirit array in order to let the latecomers, especially those with low cultivation, get a breather, and the cave we want to explore is still above, that is, at an altitude of 20,000 meters, so it takes a lot of time to get there. ”
"There are still 15,000 kilometers!" Zhan Chen gasped, and he was out of breath at five thousand meters, and he really didn't understand how to get on the road behind.
Sori seemed to see through his thoughts, and comforted: "You don't have to worry too much, I will use cultivation to resist the pressure for you later, I don't help you now, one is for the road behind, and the other is also for your own good, if you can withstand the pressure, you will be able to get a lot of exercise, which is equivalent to millions of years of retreat and cultivation." ”
Zhan Chen couldn't help but nod in agreement, he had this kind of experience, pressure is indeed the best way to exercise his body, it can help him build up his cultivation, and remove the instability of the realm caused by taking a large amount of pills to break through some time ago.
"But we also have to be extra careful, because the Star Beast is not restricted by the prohibition here, and at a certain height, even I am in danger. Speaking of this, even Solri's eyes showed a hint of solemnity.
During the conversation, Sori had already taken Zhan Chen to an open field, which was also a rare open area in the mountains and forests, with an area of about one hundred square meters, and five formations were arranged around it, which was also operating at this time.
There were already quite a few people staying here, and Sori and Zhan Chen had joined in.
As soon as he entered the open space, Zhan Chen felt that his shoulders were light, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and he didn't care about the dirt on the ground, so he sat down directly.
Sori also sat down next to him and said, "Zhan Chen, it's your first time here, you don't know the rest points everywhere, I'll take you to a few other rest points by the way later, so that you can enter the mountain next time." ”
"Thank you, senior. Zhan Chen said, and hurried to recover his strength.
After only half an hour, Zhan Chen stood up from the ground and said, "I'm rested, let's go back on the road." ”
"Okay!"
Solri didn't say anything polite to him, after all, the time they could spend in the secret realm was also very limited, so it was necessary to act quickly.
After that, Sori took Zhan Chen through four or five rest points, and the more he went up, the more Zhan Chen realized the huge pressure, and now he had reached the point where he had to use his star power to resist the pressure from the outside world.
There are also more rest points on the way, so that they can get a respite.
By the time he reached an altitude of 12,000 meters, Zhan Chen was already unable to move an inch, and at this time Sori had to divide his strength to help him resist the pressure.
For the rest of the day, they could only climb less than a kilometer.
But the reason why he advanced so slowly was not only because Solri had to relieve Zhan Chen's pressure, but also because he had to watch out for the star beasts that could attack at any time.
Even so, they were in danger all the way.
After another eight days, Zhan Chen finally couldn't help but ask: "Senior, is the cave you said about almost here?"
"It's up there!" Solri smiled, gasping for breath, "It's not easy to bring one more person. ”
"Senior, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to get the cold spirit true iron for you. Zhan Chen solemnly promised.
"Hehe, your words are enough, and I will definitely fulfill my promise to you. Sori laughed.
They said these things out of sincerity, and at some point, it seemed that the relationship between the two was more than just a transaction.
