Chapter Forty-Eight: The Treasure Appears
At this time, the entire Cloud Piercing Peak seemed to be shaking, the ground on the platform was also constantly shaking, and large pieces of mountain rocks rolled down from the top of the peak. Just when Xiao Rui and the others were surprised, a figure suddenly appeared not far behind him and the old man, ignoring the falling rocks and climbing towards the peak. Xiao Rui and the others didn't know this person, but other people on the platform recognized this person, and they were already shouting: "That's Gu Jian, the elder of the Gu family, what is he doing on the mountain?" Someone else shouted: "Isn't it a treasure born?" Hearing this shout, the platform immediately became chaotic, and some people from all sides immediately shouted: "Come up the mountain, the treasure is born!"
It turned out that Gu Jian had been paying attention to Xiao Rui all along, and had planned to ask Xiao Rui about his Gu Yuefeng and Gu Yueyun after everyone dispersed, of course he would not think that Xiao Rui's ability would kill Gu Xin, so he didn't expect that Gu Xin was also killed by Xiao Rui. In fact, it was Gu Yuefeng and Gu Yueyun, he didn't think it was Xiao Rui who killed him, he just wanted to ask Xiao Rui, had he seen the two of them. But when everyone dispersed, Gu Jian saw an old man in green clothes find Xiao Rui. After the two chatted for a few words, the old man slashed the knife that Xiao Rui had just forged into the mountain, and with Gu Jian's ability, he could see that the quality of the knife was average, and he also saw that after the knife entered the mountain, it had been shattered by the impact. When he saw the overall shaking of the Cloud Piercing Peak, he had already thought that it was the Cloud Piercing Peak that had changed, but it was not the effect of the old man's knife splitting. And the only thing that can make such a big movement from Cloud Piercing Peak is the treasure that is born. Therefore, Gu Jian thought of the birth of the treasure for the first time, and immediately climbed up the mountain, in order to be the first to reach the place where the treasure was born and snatch the treasure.
Gu Jian can think of it, and the people who come to this platform are naturally not mediocre people, watching him act, some people immediately think of this. So the shouts and cheers continued one after another, all of them were allocating people, some stayed on the platform, and some went up the mountain to grab the treasure, in fact, these distribution families had a clear division of labor after coming here, and at this time they just gave another instruction, so soon they saw more figures climbing up the mountain. These people are people of profound skill, using both hands and feet, on the hard and steep mountain wall, but still walking on the ground, soon have climbed a high distance, in the white-haired whirlwind blown by the mountain wind, soon disappeared from the sight of everyone who stayed on the platform.
Xiao Rui and Xia Keming didn't bother to put away the forge furnace after hearing the shout, Xia Keming just said hello to Wang Jun, and the two immediately returned to the Duan family's tent, and climbed up the mountain with Duan Hui and the three elders. And the old man in Tsing Yi who was talking to Xiao Rui before had disappeared when Xiao Rui turned his head and shouted Xia Keming, and Xiao Rui didn't know how the old man left. Not long after Xiao Rui and the five of them left, Luo Hong actually ran out of the tent, glanced at Duan Fei, who was still looking forward to the mountain, and didn't say hello, he climbed up alone, and his body was not slow. Duan Fei saw that Luo Hong had also gone up the mountain. Curiosity in his heart was moved, and he turned around and told the Duan family disciples who stayed behind to pay attention to safety, and also chased after Luo Hong. The five disciples opened their mouths to call Duan Fei, but they looked at each other, they all shook their heads, and they all stopped making a sound, they all understood that it was naturally impossible to call Duan Fei back with their own identity, and they could only hope in their hearts that this princess of their own would not have an accident.
The platform where everyone stayed was at the height of one-third of the Cloud Piercing Peak, and there was no slope further up, and it was basically a cliff that went straight up and down. And the higher you go, the stronger the mountain wind, the strong mountain wind blows on the body like a knife, and the skill is slightly worse, I am afraid that even this mountain wind can not resist the enemy. After years of mountain wind blowing, the mountain is like a steel that has been tempered for thousands of years, extremely hard, and in some places it is as smooth as a mirror, and there is no place for hands to climb and feet. The forces of hundreds of families, although each family has people who stay on the platform, but there are no less than five or six hundred people who come up the mountain. At this time, everyone was climbing upwards with all their might, and some people who were slightly weaker in the middle could not continue to move forward when they passed through some dangerous sections, so they had to retreat helplessly.
Although Luo Hong is not very old, and his cultivation is not mainly based on qi training, there seems to be a protective film around his body, and when the strong mountain wind blows around her body, it seems to be bypassed, and there are like suction cups on her hands and feet, as long as she can stick to the mountain wall, she will not fall, so Luo Hong's climbing speed is not slow. And Duan Fei was even more obvious, just when her body jumped up the mountain wall, she had already taken out a suit of armor from the storage ring and put it on her body, and she had finger covers on her hands, and a shoe cover with spikes on the front of her feet. It makes Duan Fei save a lot of effort when climbing, and he is not afraid of the mountain wind. The two climbed one after the other, towards the top of the mountain.
With the passage of time, the speed of everyone climbing the mountain is slowly separated, and the strength is naturally faster, and now the few people who climb at the forefront are Gu Jian, the lord of Yunxiao Mountain, the old man in Tsing Yi who chatted with Xiao Rui, and an elder of the Duan family, naturally Duan Yushan. There are also three people, among them there is a big man, this person is still wearing only a short shirt on this cold mountain, and the front chest is open, revealing black chest hair, this big man is also strange, not tall, but the head is as big as a bucket, the short hair on the head is erected, like a steel needle, two big eyes like copper bells, the eyes are full of fierce light, garlic nose, wide mouth, thick and powerful limbs. Watching him climb a mountain is like walking on sand, whether it is hands or feet, as long as he touches the mountain, he will inevitably leave marks on the hard mountain wall. It can be seen that this person's skills are profound. The second man was an old man with a dark face, dressed in a black robe, with his hair in a pigtail on the top of his head, a thin figure, a pair of rat eyes, a collapsed nose, thin lips, and a beard under his chin. But the most eye-catching thing about this man is his long arms, it seems that during the whole climbing process, this person uses his hands more often than his feet, and this person's ten fingers are slender, and the nails are also extremely hard, every time he grabs the mountain wall with his hands, he can see that the sharp nails are actually deeply inserted into the mountain. The third person is a slightly fat middle-aged man, this person is not good-looking, giving people the feeling of an ordinary businessman, not outstanding at all, but in the process of climbing the mountain, he is behind, has faintly surpassed the first few people who climbed, just fell behind Gu Jian and the old man in Tsing Yi, and the rest of the people couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts, so they had to chase after them.
But Xiao Rui and Duan Hui and others are in the second echelon, and Xia Keming has also lagged slightly behind them, most of these people are the main forces of some forces, and most of them are young people, which shows that all forces want to win the treasure while trying to cultivate the younger generation. so that their respective forces can have successors and not decay. At this time, Xiao Rui and Duan Hui didn't know that Luo Hong and Duan Fei had also climbed up the mountain, if they knew that they also came up, Xiao Rui would say that Duan Hui would definitely knock Duan Fei down. In such a dangerous place, Duan Hui would not let his sister get into danger.
After several hours of climbing, the first few people were able to see the top of the mountain, and their position was already very dangerous. Since the cloud piercing peak is called the word through the clouds, it is because the mountain is towering into the clouds, at this time close to the top of the mountain, the surrounding is already clouds and mist, everyone's vision is also restricted, and many years of strong mountain wind will cover the snow on the top of the mountain are frozen into ice, not only the tentacles are cold, and the slippery hands do not stay, fortunately, these people are people with superb skills, hands and feet directly inserted into the ice, the line of sight is blocked only by feeling or can continue to climb up.
At this time, the Cloud Piercing Peak seemed to have stopped shaking, but the wind on the top of the mountain was even stronger, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder. The first Gu Jian and the old man in Tsing Yi climbed to the top of the mountain almost at the same time, standing in the ice and snow, looking around, the entire top of the mountain was white, and there was a deep pit dozens of meters away in front of the two. As soon as the middle-aged man who came up appeared behind the two, he didn't even stop, and rushed to the deep pit first, and Gu Jian and the old man in Tsing Yi also hurriedly followed. When the three of them came to the edge of the pit, they saw that the diameter of the pit was four or five meters, but the depth was more than ten meters, and there was a black thing lying there quietly at the bottom of the pit. The three of them immediately had a gleam in their eyes, and they jumped down at the same time.
Just when the three of them fell three or four meters from the bottom of the pit, the black thing suddenly shone brightly, and three rays of light were released from the object, which actually shot towards the three of them. Gu Jian and the other three didn't dare to be careless when they saw the object shooting out the glow, so they hurriedly worked on their own, formed an air shield around their bodies, did a good job of protection, and changed their body shapes and fell towards the pit wall around them. Unexpectedly, the three rays of light seemed to be under control, and they continued to shoot with the changes in the body shape of the three people. The old man in Tsing Yi seemed to feel that something was wrong, and immediately kicked his feet hard against the pit wall, and his body was already floating upward. Seeing this, the other two also used their hands and feet to return upwards. Seeing the three of them returning, the glow turned out to be like a spirit, and slowly retracted it and stopped chasing it.
Gu Jian and the three of them didn't dare to continue, they glanced at each other, and at the same time they returned to the top of the mountain, standing on the edge of the pit and thinking hard. At this time, the Lord of Yunxiao Mountain and a few others had already come to the top of the mountain, and when they saw Gu Jian and the three of them standing on the edge of the pit, they immediately surrounded them, and when they saw the black thing at the bottom of the pit, everyone's eyes showed greed, but seeing the expressions of Gu Jian and the three of them, they also understood that this treasure would definitely not be easy to get, and they couldn't help but show anxiety. Just as these people were thinking hard, Xiao Rui, Duan Hui and the others finally came to the top of the mountain, saw the vision in front of them, and knew that they had seen the treasure, but no one dared to go down and be the first to try.
Now those who have come up to the mountain are the elites of various forces, and there are also a few masters of loose cultivation. After the crowd gathered, each faction began to gather its own people together to discuss how to obtain the treasure. While everyone was still discussing, they suddenly heard a miserable cry from the pit, and someone was already shouting: "That person is gone!"
