124 people climbed the stairs
The bell rang again, and the blood of all the monks boiled, and the moment to change their fate had finally arrived. The monks at the foot of the mountain rose in a hurry and climbed up the steps. At this time, they have an unprecedented fighting spirit. At this time, they felt that there were thousands of horses galloping behind them.
"No, it shouldn't have been turned on so early!"
The monks who were still on the way were very surprised, usually the second bell rang on the second day, but this time they did not play according to common sense, it was only a few hours.
One by one, the sweat on his forehead flowed down, and he rushed in the direction of the Zen Xiao Sect. If you miss the opportunity, it will be another year, and there are several years in life that can be wasted, and if you become a spiritual person next year, there will be no hope in this life.
While everyone was running towards the wide and long steps inside, Ling Dong was running outside, this face was exposed, and he could no longer use it, and he needed to change his face in a different place.
"Let's go, we'll see it in a month!" Several elders in the huge square smiled, this is not the first time they have seen such a scene, there is no longer the passion of the past, watching here, it is better to go back and consider their own path.
In a flash of inspiration, the front of the mountain gate was empty, and the beautiful fairies and the elders of the fairy wind bones all disappeared, leaving only the holy but icy huge jade platform.
A group of people go forward one after another, but I am afraid that they will not be able to do it!
Logically speaking, there is not much difference in the order of priority. But some people who know the inside story know that the coercion is not maintained at a fixed value, but gradually improved with the flow of people, so as to adapt to more monks, so that the latecomers will not be too easy. On the contrary, it helped the forerunners invisibly, maintaining a lot of physical strength in the initial period.
"That's not a good thing!" Atom muttered to himself as many people turned their eyes to him.
Atom sneakily ran to the back of a high mountain, changed his face, and then swaggered out again, although he was not tall, but suddenly he already looked like a young man. There is a lot of vigor and vigor. Later, he joined the climbing team.
On the huge steps, they were densely packed with monks from the Spirit Gathering Realm, but their spiritual power was blocked by the large array on the steps, and they could only climb with physical strength alone.
Despite the coercion, there was not much difference between the first hundred or so layers. In one breath, he climbed up. Then the speed began to slow down. But they were still able to keep up.
It's easy to get out, but it's hard to get back. Ling Dong saw that after more than two hours of crowding, he was crowded in, and his bones were about to be squeezed apart. Standing on the first step and looking up, there are tens of thousands of people densely packed, one by one fighting for the crossing, eager to change their fate, just by virtue of this. When he looked down, he couldn't move his feet. All the steps are occupied. You can only go with the flow.
Forming a huge thrust below, pushing the people above forward, this is also an advantage for those who are in front, which can save a large part of their physical strength and save strength for the hard battles behind.
Ling Dong finally took the first step, and in an instant, the spiritual power was blocked, and no spiritual power could be used at all. And there is an invisible resistance to attack, this resistance is very small, because its soul power is extraordinary, it will be perceived.
Atom followed the crowd as they climbed to the top of the mountain. Standing here and looking up at the sky, you can only see the white clouds, the looming peaks, you can't see the location of the mountain gate at all, all of them are surrounded by clouds and mist, as if you have fallen into a fairyland.
"What the hell is on the other side of the mountain, that makes so many people crazy?" Atom muttered to himself, eager to do so! I've also heard of comparing him to hell.
On the other side of the mountain, there are still mountains, but there are people living on the other side of the mountain, a group of people who will only be strong and take it as the only dream. longing to dominate a part of the heavens and the earth.
As time passed, it had been three days in the blink of an eye, and it had finally loosened up a little around the Atom. But it's still dense. When they arrived here, none of them had the strength to charge, and all of them conserved their physical strength, rested on the way, and devoured some dry food to replenish their strength.
Although the spiritual power is surrounded, and some of the spiritual spirits have been picked up, they are of no use in this place at all, on the contrary, if there is a steamed bun or a straw, it is precious. At this time, watching people eat steamed buns is an extremely luxurious thing.
Atom followed the crowd without showing his head, and now it was very easy for him. In three days, more than a thousand steps have been walked. At this rate, it should take ten days to be able to climb.
Before them, the original team of forty or fifty thousand people, at this time, there were still twenty or thirty thousand, which was close to half. There was already too much looseness on the wide steps. Looking down below, there are still people climbing the steps one after another, dense and countless.
"How many people are here?" some people were stunned, and after one glance, they didn't dare to look again, it was the first time they had climbed such a high mountain.
"Every year, about 100,000 people will participate in this selection!"
"And how many people will be able to pass?"
"If you're lucky, it's thirty or forty thousand, and if you're unlucky, it's only one or two thousand. It's all ruthless, not to others, but to yourself!" A person seems to be simple, but every word of truth, I don't know if it comes from feeling or hearsay.
The time of the tenth day, in the team where Atom was,. The breaks are getting longer and longer, and some people even start talking. In addition to recovering physical strength, it is to talk and pass the time.
At this time, they had already reached the position of the two thousand steps, and the path seemed to be much looser, and they would not push and shove like below, and sometimes they would fight hard.
"Hey, let's eat something! After so many days, it's not easy to stick to it together!" a strong man handed over a steamed bun to Ling Dong.
If you are at the bottom of the mountain, or in the city, who cares about a steamed bun or even turns a blind eye. However, at this point, it is like a great gift. It makes people drool. Atom is grateful. Here, all food is precious.
"Thank you, uncle, how long will this selection take?" Ling Dong thought that ten days would be able to solve the battle, but when he was down the mountain, he saw that people were preparing ordinary food, and he didn't care about it, but at this time, he was hungry.
"In about a month, the first monk will break out of the siege and climb the mountain gate. Counting from the first monk to reach the summit, give another month and the gates of the Zen Xiao sect will be closed. At that time, all the magic circles and all the coercion will be withdrawn, and the mountain gate will be closed, waiting for the next year to open again. The monks who participated were only able to descend the mountain.
"Uncle, how many sessions have you participated in?" Looking at the age of this elite man, how can he be in his thirties. At this age, this is not the first time to participate.
"Hehe, this one, that's more than a dozen sessions, it's not much. There are more than 100 monks who participated in the class. The lean man scratched his head embarrassedly.
Unable to break through after participating in more than a dozen sessions, what are you doing here? What's the benefit? Isn't this self-deception?
The strong man just smiled, as if he could see Atom's thoughts, but he didn't explain anything.
"Let's move on!"
After a full meal and a rest, everyone began to climb again. This thing is a painful process, early death and early life. When you actually climb up, you'll be amazed at how you can overcome this great ordeal. Even n years later, when you encounter a huge setback again, you will think of what you are doing today!
A group of people shook their bodies, stretched their muscles, and continued to climb in the direction of the top of the mountain. Fortunately, they are still standing, and in front of them, many people are really climbing.
"Hey, where's the kid?"
A month later, a few people came to the square in front of the mountain gate, as if they were the elders who saw it for the first time. Calculating the time, it was clear that the first person to climb to the top of the mountain was about to arrive.
"I didn't find it either!" the other elder searched carefully, but he also found no Num Ng.
"It's that one!" The elder at the head pointed out to everyone, which was the direction where Ling Dong was, "Although the appearance has changed a little, the body shape is still the same as that child's, it should be the same, among the tens of thousands of people, it is only that child!"
"At that time, I probably wrote down his breath, similar to that person!" A middle-aged beautiful woman was very attentive and probably remembered the breath of Atom.
"Could it be that he still can't learn the disguise technique!" An elder was very surprised, to the extent that he cultivated to his level, he didn't know that hundreds of years had passed, and the things of time rarely could make him calm his heart lake, and there were waves again, obviously this time there were ripples in his heart lake.
After all, it was a child, and Elder Yigan only recorded his appearance, but did not probe his breath, so he didn't find anyone this time.
"There are all kinds of wonders in the world, isn't my Zen Xiao Sect an example?" the first elder, holding his beard, smiled proudly, "Wait, the first one should come up!"
"That's right, in my Zen Xiao Sect genius and mortal Yong is just a thin line!"
Several elders in the square waited silently.
On the 3,200 stone steps, the crowd is densely packed to form a pyramid shape. From the bottom to the top, the crowd decreases in turn. The monk at the top was already lying on the stone steps of more than 3,100 steps, gasping for breath, ready to go, waiting for the last sprint to win the first place in one fell swoop.
This is not a male nun, but a female nun. It's astounding. The difference between men and women is not too much, six or four points. But generally speaking, it is the male cultivator who is more stoic and more tolerant, and the chance of rushing up is very high.
Women, the only advantage, once they are ruthless to themselves, men can't compare at all. This time, it's a clear example.
