Chapter 259: Mountaineering
Hundreds of figures gathered around the ten mountains, and their eyes were full of doubt.
Ten mountain peaks, towering into the clouds, majestic and extraordinary, mist-shrouded, the mountains are full of trees, magnificent.
However, the ten high mountains in front of me looked exactly the same, and even the trees, layout, and fog on the mountains were exactly the same, and there was no difference.
Ten high mountains, adjacent to each other, form a circle, and in each high mountain, there is a bluestone path that leads to the top of the mountain.
Wang Gan stepped forward to check and found that every tree in the mountain peaks had the same texture of leaves, roots and stems, which made him a little confused.
Some monks who couldn't help it, by feeling, found a mountain peak and began to climb the mountain.
Those who come here are all in the Soul Realm or the Soul Realm Realm, and they can all fly in the sky.
However, when a tower climbs the bluestone steps, it is impossible to vacate at all, and many people have difficulty moving, sweating like rain, as if every step has exhausted all their strength.
"Could it be that there is another mystery in this stone step?" Miao Lingling frowned slightly and muttered in a low voice.
"Whatever, just try it first, if this mountain doesn't work, let's change it." Xue Zhiqian's face was excited, and he was eager to try.
In everyone's opinion, there will definitely be a fate on the top of the mountain, how can they bear it, including Wang Gan.
Wang Qian was a little puzzled, "According to what you say, why didn't anyone come down to change the mountain?"
Xue Zhiqian just took a step and took it back, and the facts were indeed the same as what Wang Qian said.
No matter how hard it was for those who climbed the mountain, none of them retreated.
From this point of view, there may be limitations to mountaineering, and once you choose, you can't go back, so you need to think about it.
But it can't stay long, most of the turtle people are attracted by Cheng Yanjin, and once those turtle people come and come back, they will be surrounded again.
Wang Qian's five people walked around the ten high mountains, and when they came down, they couldn't see that there was a difference in which mountain.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Wang Qian's mind, the compass, the compass he obtained in the Nine Colored Great Sun Tower, maybe it could work.
The compass, generally speaking, is used to identify the direction, but the treasures that can be stored in the secret realm of Mu Ran will not be ordinary.
Wang Qian took out the compass from the golden seal space, the compass was only the size of a palm, the color was dark yellow and simple, and it looked very ordinary.
There is only a black pointer and twenty-four ancient characters, but Wang Qian doesn't know any of them, but it is not difficult to guess that these twenty-four ancient characters should indicate the direction, just like the southeast, northwest, and northwest.
But now the most critical problem is that the compass was taken out, and there was no reaction, and the pointer did not move.
"Taishang Laojun is in a hurry to give the order!
The compass still doesn't move.
"Wang Qian, is your compass reliable? It can't be a certain treasure. Xue Zhiqian said, looking at the worn-out compass with a look of disgust.
"You know. ”
Wang Gan directly rolled his eyes and handed it over, and began to try other methods.
Finally, when Wang Qian poured the aura into the compass, the pointer moved.
"It's moving, it's moving!"
Wang Gan's face was excited, and he poured some aura into the compass, and the pointer began to turn, and finally stopped in one direction, pointing to a second mountain peak on the left.
"Let's go!" Wang Gan took the compass and walked straight.
Xue Zhiqian was a little skeptical, "You don't know what the function of this compass is, what if it's a compass to detect danger?"
The words "......" woke up Wang Gan, and after a moment of silence, Wang Qian said: "The ten mountains are exactly the same, how do you know that there is an fate on that mountain?"
"It seems like that's the case, then don't care, let's follow the compass first! Xue Zhiqian nodded slightly, and finally chose to believe in the compass.
For the sake of safety, Wang Qian went to other places to experiment with the compass, but still pointed to the same mountain.
Without wasting any more time, the five walked in the direction the pointer pointed.
As soon as he walked in front of the bluestone path, there was a sudden shout behind him.
"Xue Zhiqian, wait for me!"
Wang Qian looked back, his face was shocked, and he was frightened by the scene behind him.
The dense turtle people, as many as a thousand, were like a green wave, green liquid splashed all over the sky, and Wang Gan, who heard the strange cry, had goosebumps.
In front of the turtle man, there was a chubby figure, extremely flexible shuttling through the green liquor, it was Cheng Biting Jin.
Cheng Yanjin was panting, his face was panicked, and he jumped into the path in front of Wang Gan.
The turtle man behind him suddenly stopped, stopped moving, and roared angrily.
Wang Qian's five people were also frightened by the scene in front of them, and hurriedly walked into the range of the mountain peak.
"I'll go, you kid is so bold!"
Looking at the crowded turtle man behind him, Xue Zhiqian gave Cheng Yanjin a thumbs up.
The Demon King of the Mixed World, but he can't be the one he wants to be, Cheng Yanjin can be called the Demon King, and he can live so smoothly because of his own talent and strength.
has a background, talent, strength, and is still an alchemist, Wang Qian thinks he can't compare.
"Let's go!"
Wang Qian urged, there were already more than a dozen figures in front of the bluestone path, and they were struggling to move forward.
Cheng Yanjin took the lead in stepping on the bluestone steps, his body sank down violently, and his face turned red in an instant.
Wang Gan's eyes were startled, and he walked up closely.
Suddenly, a huge force enveloped his whole body, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back, and he couldn't breathe.
Wang Gan's physical fitness is not weak, although it is not as good as the physical cultivation of the Thousand Hammer Realm, it is not about the same.
He thought it would be much easier, but he didn't expect that the bluestone path was based on the strength of the mountaineer, and the stronger the strength, the higher the pressure.
However, Wang Gan's physical fitness is still much stronger than that of several others, and from the outside, Wang Gan is still more relaxed.
Miao Lingling and Xue Zhiqian also had hideous faces, and their backs were bent down.
"Hold the grass, what's going on?" Xue Zhiqian gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
Whip!
Wang Gan climbed the second stone step and said with difficulty: "Bear with it, maybe this is a test, and if you pass the test, you will be able to get the inheritance of great power." ”
Xue Zhiqian nodded solemnly, his gaze firm.
Walking on the cyan stone steps, not only do you have to bear tremendous pressure, but you also can't mobilize your aura.
In general, everyone is under pressure, but they are all their own limits, and if you want to reach the top, the difficulty is similar, and it is everyone's willpower that is tested, not cultivation.
Wang Qian looked up, the height of the mountain peak was more than two thousand meters, and the height of one step was about forty centimeters, which meant that there were at least five thousand steps.
Even if your body does not move and you stay in a stressful environment for a long time, it is difficult to persevere, let alone climb a mountain.
If you want to reach the top, it can be described as difficult as climbing to the sky.
But no one gives up, whether they succeed or not, they always have to try.
The huge pressure penetrates into every corner of the body, as if gravity has increased dozens of times, and every bone, every drop of blood, and every cell in the body is under this pressure, which is extremely uncomfortable.
Every time Wang Qian took a step, his bones were crunching, like an old chair,
A minute passed, and the five of them walked more than ten steps, and they were far from reaching the top.
Among the six people of Wang Qian, Cheng Biting Jin was the most uncomfortable, sweating profusely, sweat down his chin, drop by drop on the steps.
Everyone was very tacit, and they didn't dare to speak, for fear of wasting their physical strength.
Tick...... Da ...... Crunch...... Call......
The sound of sweat, footsteps, bones, panting, constantly ringing.
The physical strength is constantly draining, the spirit is getting more and more tired, and everyone's progress is significantly slower.
The more you go to the back, the more difficult it becomes, and every step you take, it takes tens of seconds.
Gradually, Wang Gan, Cheng Yanjin, Miao Lingling, and Xue Zhiqian have surpassed more than ten people in front and are at the forefront.
Genius is not just based on combat power and talent, but also one in a million willpower.
Call...... Call......
Wang Qian gasped heavily, his whole body was wet with sweat, and his body was trembling slightly.
He looked back and saw that he had walked nearly a thousand steps, not even half.
Wang Gan began to urge the purgatory town elephant trick, the invisible pressure weakened a little, Wang Gan felt a lot better, and the speed of climbing the mountain exceeded that of Cheng Yanjin and the others.
Finally, one of the people in the back couldn't hold on anymore and took out a pill, wanting to swallow it to restore his strength.
Just when the pill was less than a centimeter away from his mouth, the pressure increased sharply, and with a bang, a dog eating came directly, lying on the steps, very embarrassed.
The man's face changed, he put away the pill, and the pressure returned to normal.
But this also means that the chances of him reaching the top are slim.
Seeing this scene, Wang Qian instantly understood that it seemed that in the process of mountaineering, he could not rely on external forces.
This invisible pressure should be a formation, and when someone is detected taking the pill, the pressure will skyrocket.
If he could take the pills, there were a lot of pills in Wang Qian's Golden Seal space, enough to hold on to the top of the mountain.
It seems that you can only rely on yourself.
At least, Wang Qian has two advantages, first, his physique is stronger than everyone else, and second, he has the purgatory calming technique, which can not only relieve some of the pressure, but also use it to enhance his physique.
Gradually, the distance between Wang Qian and Miao Lingling became wider and wider.
On the 2,000th step, Wang Gan put his hands on his knees, sweating like rain, panting, and resting a little.
Miao Lingling and the three of them were behind him, more than five hundred steps away from him.
Xue Zhiqian's eyes were extremely envious, there was an insurmountable gap between the first-class genius and the second-class genius.
Among the three, only Cheng Biting Jin looked the most relaxed.
This made Xue Zhiqian not expect that a person who usually seemed lawless and loose and casual would have such a strong willpower at such a time.
But fortunately, they can still hold on.
Many people, when they reach the thousandth step, are already a little powerless, and it takes a minute or even a few minutes to step up to the next stone step.
Wang Gan was half-bowed, not daring to sit down, for fear that he would not be able to stand up as soon as he sat down.
The good news for everyone is that the intensity of the pressure does not increase and it is stable all the time.
