Chapter 719: The End of the World
On the Xingyao Immortal Mountain, there are three dangers, and the danger coefficient is better than the other.
Yifuqu is the first danger, but the current goal of Wei Jiu and his party is the second danger, a cliff at hand. As the name suggests, the end of the world is close at hand, and over the years, many people have set foot in this cliff area, but in the end, without exception, all of them died.
Another meaning of the end of the world, that is, life and death are forever separated, but anyone who steps into this place generally holds the belief that he will die.
The reason why Wei Jiu dared to break into the cliff was not because he was conceited how powerful he was. It's just that before he came, the Qianyuan Daoist told him that if he wanted to solve this dangerous pass, he didn't rely on cultivation.
The danger of Yifuqu mainly lies in the strength of the fierce beast of the pestle, but there is no fierce beast guarding it on the cliff at hand. The reason why no one has set foot is because this place is a natural danger, and the terrain and layout are too dangerous.
This is an extremely high cliff, and the only way to survive is only one way.
At first, Wei Jiu only felt that it was just a cliff, and with the cultivation of the ancient gods, how could he not pass through it? But after he listened to the Qianyuan Daoist, he completely changed his original thoughts, it turned out that on this cliff, cultivation was useless.
Every trespasser who ascends the nearby cliff will be banned from cultivating, and even the elemental power that permeates the surroundings is completely unleashable.
Not only that, but the road to the top of the nearby cliff was full of magic circles and traps, and the slightest mistake could kill you. It seems that he is just climbing a cliff, but in fact, he is using his own wisdom and knowledge of his own formation to play against the arranger here.
It is said that in history, there is only one person who passed through the cliff, and that is Wei Jiu's father, Wei Xuegu.
Being able to get the name of Shengtian Banzi, Wei Xuegu's wisdom is beyond doubt, and his understanding of the formation is naturally higher than that of ordinary people. So back then, after knowing the test of this nearby cliff, he resolutely chose the road to break through.
No one knew exactly what was going on, but according to the Qianyuan Daoists, Wei Xuegu succeeded, and he climbed to the top of the nearby cliff. However, it is worth noting that although he won, he also lost a lot of money, and it is said that his cultivation was lost by thirty percent, and his whole body was covered with bruises.
Being able to hurt Emperor Wei Gu to such an extent is self-evident that the formations and mechanisms here are strong.
Therefore, for a long time, there are often people who challenge Yifuqu, but few people challenge the cliff. On the one hand, no one would feel that their wisdom could surpass that of Emperor Wei Gu. On the other hand, in their eyes, since Emperor Wei Gu had already broken through the nearby cliff, the treasures here must have been taken away by him.
Even the treasure as a reward is gone, so how can they risk a deadly challenge?
When he knew that the address of this year's Beacon Fire Competition was Xingyao Immortal Mountain, Qiantassel planned a road map for Wei Jiu, which did not include the nearby cliff. There is no doubt that it is not cost-effective for dry tassels to take the risk of challenging a level without any prizes.
So in the end, why did Wei Jiu change his decision? It was just because of Wei Xuegu's entrustment.
In the chess game of the past, he narrowly defeated the sky with a half-particle advantage, and later, he can also be said to be an invincible opponent who won all over the world. But only when facing this nearby cliff, he felt that he had suffered a dark loss. Although he won, he still killed 1,000 enemies and lost 800 himself, which was not cost-effective.
The most important thing is that he did not take away the treasures buried in the nearby cliff.
This is different from the rumors from the outside world. Back then, he stood at the top of the nearby cliff, and the mysterious treasure was close in front of him. But for some reason, his mind suddenly became very confused, and then he chose to go down the mountain without touching the treasure.
Perhaps at the beginning, his purpose was simply to challenge himself.
But from the moment he reached the peak, the insistence in his heart changed, and the charm of the treasure was too great. I can't love it, and even after he left the nearby cliff, he was lost and regretted for many years.
It's just that there is an unwritten rule on this nearby cliff, that is, everyone has only one chance to break through, even if he is Emperor Wei Gu.
Since he has no chance, and others have no strength to reach the top, Wei Xuegu did not disclose the news. On the other hand, he was well aware of the value of the treasures on the cliff, and if they fell into the hands of the wicked, it would inevitably cause the lives of the Chaos Realm to be ruined.
Originally, he thought that the treasure would be silent on the Xingyao Immortal Mountain forever, and it was not until Wei Jiu returned that he realized that his opportunity had come.
Wei Jiu is his son, and his talent in formation is completely inherited from him, but he is above him. To put it bluntly, if he plays Go and Wei Jiu against each other, I am afraid that he may not be able to gain the upper hand.
Therefore, it is naturally the best choice to let Wei Jiu break through this close cliff. Perhaps, that powerful and mysterious treasure will finally fall into his hands, which is also the best ending.
......
However, although the distance from the Yifu Canal to the middle of the cliff is not far, it is also dense with fog, and it is not an easy journey.
Wei Jiu's visual ability was ten meters, but since he sacrificed the body of the Pestle Beast, he seemed to have inherited some of its abilities. At least in this dense fog, his perception ability has been greatly improved, and in short, he can already perceive movement a hundred meters away.
Of course, I just felt the surge of the breath of life, and it was not as clear as I imagined.
Wei Jiu's gaze flashed with a trace of solemn brilliance, and then he stopped his steps. "Wait... Looks like we're going to have to delay our trip a bit... I sensed that in the swamp a few dozen meters in front of me, there was a group of blood crows attacking two people, and it seemed that they were also the ones we were competing with!"
"Huh?" Dry Tassel was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "Then what should we do?"
According to her habits, as the senior sister of the Qiankun Palace, when the junior brother is in trouble, she should come to the rescue. But now it's different, with Wei Jiu, the core of this team is Wei Jiu, in her heart, she only needs Wei Jiu to make choices and decisions.
Wei Jiu's eyes raised slightly, looked into the distance, and then smiled helplessly, "There is no way, I can only save them... You can't let them be pecked to death by the blood crows!"
The Blood Raven is one of the great beasts of this Chaos Realm, and its strength is almost the same as that of the gods of the Bright Realm. For the ancient gods of the Chaos Realm, it was not worth mentioning at all, and the weakest students in the Qiankun Hall could easily kill them.
But at the same time, the Blood Raven is also known as the Chaos Realm, the beast that is most unwilling to be provoked. Being able to be feared by people with such a weak strength can be seen in its goodness.
After all, adult blood crows have always acted in groups, and generally speaking, hundreds or thousands of them gather together. What's more, these blood ravens are not afraid of death or damage, and will never stop attacking until they are completely killed.
Because the blood crow itself is in a state of "living and dead", although it has a symbol of life, it is as if it is an empty shell and has left the soul. It was precisely because of this that Wei Jiu was able to infer the existence of the Blood Crow through his perception, the unusual breath of life.
After all, with such a breath of life and being able to gather hundreds of individuals at the same time, there is probably only one species like the Blood Crow.
Judging by the breath, although the area in the swamp is not large, there are definitely more than a hundred blood crows around it.
What a terrifying number? The ancient gods are very strong, but it is also quite difficult to face hundreds of gods at the same time. What's more, this swamp is itself the home of the Blood Crow, and the two Qiankun Hall students fell into it, but they couldn't even find the slightest chance to escape.
Now that the decision has been made, Wei Jiu naturally won't delay anything, and nodded to the girls. Then the brilliance of the martial arts flashed, and the bodies of the five people rushed forward, leaving only an afterimage that was about to dissipate in place.
......
Xingyao Immortal Mountain, swampland, this is the only swamp above Immortal Mountain.
As Wei Jiu perceived, there was indeed a fierce battle taking place in the swamp at this time. However, he was wrong about one thing, that is, there were not only two students who were besieged here, but there was also a scaly wound who had already been attacked by the blood crow, and there was no life.
Before the start of the game, the Qianyuan Dao people had promised that they would not be killed or injured. After all, he is one of the two great creation gods, and the power he wields is far beyond the comprehension of these ancient gods and fathers.
This severely injured and fainted student, even if he was already dead, as long as the game was over, the Qianyuan Daoist had the ability to make him recover quickly. However, as I said before the competition, the pain suffered during this period cannot be eliminated, and the participants themselves must bear it themselves.
"Senior Brother Qianqiu, it looks like we have to plant here today!" said one of the contestants helplessly.
And the person he shouted was struggling with those blood crows, and it could be seen that there were more than twenty blood crows that died in his hands. However, such frequent attacks made him exhausted, and countless wounds were added to his body.
This person is the last of the Eight Ying in the Qianyuan, and he is also a descendant of the Wei family, Wei Qianqiu.
"Hmph, even if I die, I won't let these evil animals have a good time!" Wei Qianqiu smiled coldly, "Xiaoyang, you take care of Panzi's body... If I am not defeated, you will withdraw from the game to avoid unnecessary injury!"
Before the game began, the Qianyuan Dao people left a token on everyone. Crush it, and you can teleport beyond the Star Shine Immortal Mountain, and of course, this also means quitting the game completely.
As a Qianyuan Baying, Wei Qianqiu has his own pride, and he will never be able to do the move of withdrawing from the competition. However, Xiaoyang and Pan Zi are different, they are no longer on the list of Baying and Sijie, and Wei Qianqiu naturally does not want his only friends to be harmed.
