Fifty-three, mountaineering (1)
Don't stop in front of Jiuxing Mountain, and climb the steps first if you want to enter the palace.
There is a crowd of people in front of the stone steps at the foot of the mountain, and the candidates from the seven countries have surrounded the archway in front of the stone steps of the mountain. But no matter how crowded the crowd was, everyone seemed to have discussed it, and no one dared to step down the steps.
Three feet away from the torii, three young men lay unconscious on the ground. Looking at the looks on their faces, it is not difficult to see the strangeness they have experienced.
One was terrified, the crotch of his lower body was wet, and the other two were lewd and lewd, and their bodies were languid and prostration, but no one present dared to come forward to help.
The first three people stepped on the steps in three steps, and the first person took six minutes to climb the steps and then rolled to the ground. The second, third, and both of them only stepped on half a stone staircase before they fell to the ground in an instant. Since then, the rest of the people have re-examined the fourteen big characters on the archway, and they dare not climb the mountain rashly.
Half an hour later, the three people on the ground gradually woke up. After they stood up, they all turned around and left, ignoring the greetings and inquiries of their companions, and left straight through Nine Star Town without stopping. Originally, I wanted to ask the three first candidates who ate crabs what was strange about the climbing stone steps, but now this scene can only be observed.
"Don't stop in front of Jiuxing Mountain? Does this mean that we can only climb this stone step by step to be qualified to become a student of the academy? After all, today is the opening day of the exam, but we haven't seen half of the examiners yet. Is this climbing stone step the test question?"
In the crowd, a handsome and tall teenager spoke his guess.
At this time, Murong Xiaoxiao, who heard these remarks, seemed to think of something, and then added:
Maybe we won't be able to climb this Jiuxing Mountain today, and we will definitely not have a chance in the future. ”
As soon as Murong Xiaoxiao's remarks came out, the entire foot of the mountain was boiling. I saw that at this time, these candidates had been delayed at the foot of this mountain for half a day. This nine-star mountain road is already steep and difficult to walk, and it takes more than half a day to climb to the top even if it is usual. Coupled with the fact that this stone step is strange step by step, if you hesitate any longer, this Nine Star Academy really shouldn't be delusional anymore.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, and the young man who had just made a bold guess directly crossed the torii and stepped onto the stone steps. In the eyes of everyone, the figure of the young man who had just stepped on the steps couldn't help but tremble, and then his face suddenly turned red. Just when everyone thought that he was going to follow in the footsteps of the previous three, the young man's face gradually returned to normal, and the corners of his mouth showed a slight smile at the same time.
I saw that the young man was walking like flying, stepping on the steps like walking on the ground, and everyone was not paying attention, he had crossed the corner of the mountain road and walked away in the dust.
Murong Xiaoxiao saw that the young man had successfully climbed the mountain, and followed him up the steps with three steps and two steps. Unlike the young man, Murong Xiaoxiao stood directly on the tenth step without stopping, and her expression was not the same as the young man just now. I saw a flash of cruelty on the soft face, and it returned to normal in less than three breaths, and rushed directly to the top of the mountain with great strides.
With two successful precedents of one man and one woman, the rest of the candidates can still hold back. Everyone rushed to the stairs, for fear that they would not get a place in the academy if they were left behind. But how could it be so easy, the defeat of the first three seemed to be forgotten, and the front of the steps was blocked by a fainting human wall. Six or seven out of ten candidates fainted instantly when they stepped on the steps. The later candidates paid no attention to the people lying on the ground, and directly stepped on them and continued to climb up.
At the top of the Nine Star Peak, an old man looked at the bottom of the mountain with a cane and shook his head and sighed.
"It's really better than one session, could it be that these are the fresh blood that the cultivation world wants? Could it be that relying on these people can really turn the tide and save the Yanhuang Continent from danger?"
Hahahaha...... The old man raised his staff and stomped it on the ground. The ripples of the aura slowly spread outward, directly forming a strong hurricane that rushed straight down the mountain......
Li Haoran was already rushing to the top of the mountain with his body under his feet, and not far in front of him was Ximen Changfeng, who was in the air with Situ. He had calculated just now, as long as he crossed the small corner in front of him, as long as he used his sword qi to cut off the pine tree next to the mountain road, he would be able to jump to the flat ground on the top of the mountain in one step with his strength.
Sima Lingkong and Ximen Changfeng also had the same idea as Li Haoran in their hearts, knowing that if they didn't directly touch the stone steps, they didn't have to bear the risks they bringed. They don't want to be a stepping stone for future generations. What Li Haoran wanted to borrow was the tree next to the road, but these two people regarded each other as their goals.
One step, two steps, three steps, the end is slowly approaching. The three people who were about to welcome the victory had their own ghosts, and just when Sima Lingkong and Ximen Changfeng were about to attack each other, a strange wind blew on the mountain, and the three people who were about to reach the top of the mountain were directly beaten out by this strange wind.
Sima Lingkong and Ximen Changfeng, who bore the brunt of the attack, were instantly beaten and vomited blood, and the sea of qi was shattered. You can see that this hurricane is so powerful.
Li Haoran looked at the miserable appearance of the two people in front of him vomiting blood in the air, and couldn't help but gasp. Although his state at this time was not very good, the cracking of the meridians was much better than the shattering of the sea of qi in comparison.
...... Syllable......
Li Haoran was thrown directly on the trunk of the tree at the foot of the mountain, although it was not enough to break the tree, but it also broke several branches. The candidates who fainted on the mountain road were also blown behind the archway by this strange wind, and their bodies were gently lined up in a row by the wind, while those candidates who stepped on the mountain road through others fell directly from the air to the ground and wailed all over the place.
Since then, the trail has been empty. Of the more than 700 candidates from the seven countries, only 28 people successfully appeared on the top of Jiuxing Mountain. However, the top of the mountain is not the peak, and the remaining twenty-eight candidates on the top of the wide and empty Nine Star Mountain, looking at the Nine Star Peak in the distance under the sunset, can't help but feel full of emotion. I don't know how many of these people around me can really reach the top.
"Hurry up, hurry up, the sun is about to set......"
On the streets of Jiuxing Town, two figures flew by quickly, knocking over many street stalls and vendors along the way. At this time, the sunset had been blocked by Jiuxing Peak, Yang Ze and Xiaotian finally rushed to the foot of Jiuxing Mountain, and saw everyone lying on the ground wailing from a distance.
"What's going on? Isn't it an exam? How did you get it like this?"
Yang Ze asked three questions in a row, but no one was willing to answer. Candidates who are now pestled here mean that they will not have the opportunity to become students of the Academy. So they will never provide any help to the two people in front of them.
I can't even pass the test, and of course I don't want to see you pass, this is a typical mentality of dying together, and human beings have always had such despicability. Yang Ze and the two of them won't waste time for this. Without saying a word, he walked straight in the direction of the steps.
The sunset gradually faded, and in the eyes of all the people, Yang Ze and Xiaotian slowly crossed the archway in front of the stone steps and began the real mountaineering......
