Chapter 60: Entering the Gate of Heaven
The mist of the waterfall beside her drifted to her face, and her hair was soon soaked with green silk, even a clean gray coat and coarse silk must be unavoidable. It was Xia Wei, but the cold wind still made her shiver.
At sunset, Nu Yao didn't know how much she had climbed? She was numb, so she only knew how to hold on to her rough teng and climb up hard. Blood was oozing from the scars in her hands, and there was only one word in her head, crawl! crawl!
Suddenly, her mind flickered, her eyes flickered, and then the gaze in the corner of her eyes quickly turned, and her whole body fell backwards.
"Ahh
Her body fell with the wind, her ears were whistling with the water wind, and the water droplets that smashed on her face blurred her vision, and a thought suddenly appeared in her mind: Die! No! She can't die! Unavenged, uncleansed, she can't die. As soon as this determination was raised, her body floating in the air stood up, and the person pounced on the other rough in sight with all his might.
"Bah!", her body slammed into the stone wall, slid down sharply, her hand quickly grabbed the thick Teng, and her foot stepped on the convex stone that only allowed for toes. Right here, her body swayed slightly, the moss on the soles of her feet slipped, and the bulge stone was about to fall slowly.
Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the convex stone in front of her feet, pulled her hands up, swung forward hard, and hit the wind with the wind, her arm slammed into the bluestone of the cliff, and when she saw that her body was about to fall, at the critical moment, her hand grabbed the rough teng.
"Whew..."
Nu Yao let out a long breath, her heavy long hair was already soaked, the bewitching red on her forehead was faintly visible, and the sweat between her nose was beads. At this moment, she frowned, and held the injured shoulder with one hand, and wisps of moss hung from the shoulder.
She raised her hand and patted her head and shoulders, and gradually her fists were clenched, her face was abnormal, her expression became serious, her eyes became sharp, and she murmured:
"Freedom! I just want to be free! If God stops me, I will kill God. ”
And she knows that if she wants to be free, she must be strong, and she must also enter the gate of heaven!
In the dark and smoky night, the clouds were full of smoke like a fairy mirror. The peaks of the mountains and the four prefectures, which were originally hidden in the clouds, disappeared, and were replaced by a stone staircase with moonlight as far as the eye could see.
Li Xuan, who was grasping the ladder, was breathless, her wheezing voice was sharply uneven, and she was hunched over and half-hunched to feel the cold air. Her steps were as heavy as roots, and when she lifted her feet, she was numb and painful, and sweat slipped down the corners of her lips.
"Well, when is it a head?"
Just when she was full of emotion, her body shook and her brain dizzy. Suddenly, her steps were empty, and she fell to the ground in fright, panting and staring at the gloomy clouds at her feet, the cold wind blew through her cheeks, and her goosebumps were exposed.
In the blink of an eye, she screamed in fright.
"What's going on? I..."
"How can I only see a meter away, or is the stone staircase obscured by fog?"
She just wanted to conjure up a long sword to probe, but there was nothing in her hand. She suddenly remembered the words of the disciple in front of the mountain gate, and knew in her heart: that is, no divine power could be used on the nine-story ladder.
In desperation, she had to slowly grope the ground with her feet, so as not to fall into the air and be half dead. Gradually, she noticed that as her gaze moved, the distance she could see also increased, and so she walked for a long time.
Finally, she stopped irritably, looked at the white sky, and felt anxious: the sky is about to dawn, the speed is too slow, and she can't go at this speed, and then her sister will be eliminated!
Li Yan stomped her feet and let out a bitter cry on the spot, what should I do? What should I do? Suddenly, what Min Shiyi said flashed in his mind, and he muttered in his mouth.
"As long as you keep your heart!" What is your own heart? If you say that you are already on the gate of heaven based on the scene you see during the day, but why is this happening?
Slowly she closed her eyes, and a series of winding paths slowly appeared in her mind, the blue bluestone path was surrounded by the surrounding mist, and at the end was a dark red stone plaque with Wu Yao Tianmen written on it.
As soon as she lifted her foot, her whole body quickly disappeared into the clouds. The whole person had to walk up the path in his mind, neither fast nor slow.
At some point, there was a loud noise. Li Qian opened her eyes, a little surprised at a glance, and then understood the truth of the matter.
On the wide square of bluestone, more than 300 ethnic groups walked back and forth in place, they passed each other but could not touch each other, and some of them looked frightened and fell to the ground. Li Qian guessed: They should think that they fell into the clouds, which is why they are so afraid.
This should be the illusion mirror, in fact, they have come to the gate of heaven, and the test of the gate of heaven is this illusion.
She looked down and found that the place she was in turned out to be an incomparably wide mountain, and this square was only one of the corners, and on the other side was a large palace-Yanwutang. The red-walled and blue-tiled palace of Yanwutang has six gates each, with a total of nine floors high.
Layers of red pillar carved windows and wooden doors, very ancient. The eight pillars of fire around the palace are also illuminated by guiding lights, and the palace is surrounded by forests and weeds, among which large and small palaces and houses are faintly visible.
Turning her head again, Li Yan was shocked and froze in place!
Under the cliff in front of him is a bright moon-like sunrise lake, and in the distance there are three other peaks, palaces and houses are arranged like this peak.
What is surprising is that there is a floating island floating on the moonlit Riming Lake, which should be a palace. There are a total of six gates on the first floor of the majestic hall, and the ninety-nine-story building is hung with hanging red lanterns, which looks dreamy in the bright red color of the palace in the blue clouds.
The bluestone lattice windows surround the entire hall, and there is nothing but the eight thick red pillars that run through the hall. The blue stone bricks outside the hall surround the whole hall, and the fire flickers around the eight pillars of the main hall, and the eight thick iron chains at the bottom of the platform are connected to the four peaks.
This is the Tianshu Pavilion! It was shocking at first sight, not to mention the palace floating in the air, but then she thought of a difficult question, how those mountain peaks came and went.
Li Qian glanced at the blue-black iron chain that was thicker than a person, the corners of her mouth twitched, and a thought arose: I won't tell her that it is through it to cross to the Tianshu Platform and then to the peaks!
But when I thought of the immortal artifact that my disciple said, I couldn't help but laugh at myself for being stupid. Suddenly, a burning gaze came, and he turned to look back. Beyond one pool, on the magnificent palace with red walls and blue walls, three people stood by the fourth layer of fence. An old man, a man, and a woman, all wearing green gauze and white silk robes, seem to be people in heaven. It's just that the distance is far away and I can't see what the other party looks like?
The inquiring gaze was still on her, and it should be said that she was unscrupulous. Li Qian was a little uncomfortable, and just wanted to move her body, a girl in pink rushed to her eyes.
"Sister Li!"
Jiufeng happily grabbed her, and Li Yan suddenly bared her teeth and screamed.
"Pain!" went around to Jiufeng's back, and when he looked at the palace again, the three people above were nowhere to be seen!
"Sister Li, I'm sorry! I'll help you take a look. ”
When Jiufeng realized that he had caught the injury on Li Xuan's arm, he was about to check it.
At this time, the originally peaceful square became noisy, and there were more than 200 people of various nationalities standing in the square who could enter the Heavenly Gate, and most of them were surprised to suddenly appear here.
In the noisy crowd, not far from Li Xuan's line of sight, he happened to see a figure crawling out of the cliff at the end of the square. The man was dressed in gray and embarrassed, drenched, with a few beads of moss hanging from his black hair, and the corners of his clothes were stained with mud.
I saw her raise her head, a pair of bright and clear black eyes glanced around, quickly patted the moss and dress on her head, and slowly approached here.
Li Yan can definitely be a female Yao now, and she just wanted to cross the crowd. Suddenly, there was a loud knock on the door.
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Li Xuan, who had walked a few steps, was unable to move by the sudden oppression, and the square became unusually quiet with this sound.
"Everyone, do you think that if you enter the Heavenly Gate, you will become a disciple of the Heavenly Gate? ”
"Wrong!
With the man's voice, the people in the square were panicked, and their faces were bitter. If it weren't for the inability to speak, Li Qian believed that the people in the square would have made a fuss.
On the high platform on the pool in the square, there is a sturdy man dressed in green gauze and white silk, with black hair, a man with regular braids tied on his forehead, a pair of long eyebrows, and the corners of his dark eyes, such as Ling-shaped black marks that continue to his ears, and his thin and thick red lips are mature and stylish eagle noses, and his tall and smooth forehead is masculine and domineering.
There were beautiful women in Tianmen costumes standing beside him, but these two women, one with eyes like animal eyes, and the other with long fox ears on the tips of their pink ears.
Li Qian didn't know what kind of clan it was, but this man was clearly the man who was paying attention to himself in the palace, and he didn't know what he was looking for.
"If you want to enter the gate of heaven, you must cross the competition in half a month and see the fighting platform behind you. ”
With the man's voice, everyone's eyes looked at the ten bluestone rings behind them, and there were many doubts but they couldn't speak. But the man's next words relieved everyone's confusion.
"From tomorrow onwards, only those who enter the top twenty will be able to enter the Heavenly Gate, and the top five will directly become the disciples of each master. ”
"In the past half a month, you have stayed at the outer gate of this Tianmen Peak, if you have not come to the stage for five days to enter the next round of battles, you will be deemed to have automatically given up entering the Heavenly Gate. ”
As soon as the man's words fell, the originally quiet crowd suddenly started to swish, and if they couldn't speak, they were afraid that they would have exploded.
Only 20 of the more than 200 people were selected, and with a probability of 2 percent, it was no wonder that they were so excited! Such a chance is too small, the last time they were in the ring in five days, half a month is three times, and then they will finally win the top five! The odds of winning are sure to be too small! She shook her head, she actually came and had to enter the gate of heaven!
Li Qian glanced at Jiufeng, who kept blinking, a little funny, guessing that she must want to ask where we live?
"Wait a minute, I'll send you the house number," the man whispered to the women on both sides.
"You send them the housing number. ”
"Yes! ”
The two women answered, got up and floated down, but before they could reach them, they saw wooden signs thrown at their heads.
When Li Yan just wanted to complain that she couldn't move, Jiufeng had already reached out and quickly scooped up two wooden cards in the air. Only then did she realize that her body could move, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the various clans competing for wooden cards on the scene made a big move.
"The wooden plaque has been issued to everyone, and it is forbidden to move around in the Heavenly Gate, and it is forbidden to disturb the Divine Monarch, and your life is not guaranteed. ”
The man said this sharply, and led the two women into the main hall, leaving the scene of the chaotic fight and ignoring it.
"Sister Li! ”
Jiufeng happily stretched out her hand and handed her a wooden card, she quickly took it, looked at the chaotic scene and pulled her to say hurry up, and the two walked directly across the square towards the forest.
