Chapter 9: One Hundred Thousand Heavenly Steps
And some families, in order to send their children and descendants into the Taiyi Immortal Gate, started to think of going through the back door.
They will build relationships with the major peak masters and give gifts in order to obtain this quota for direct entry into the Taiyi Immortal Gate.
This is called internal determination.
Zhang Qixuan naturally knew about this, but he would also turn a blind eye, after all, the forty-nine peaks were relatively independent, as long as the ones they recruited met the conditions for building a foundation under the age of twenty, he would not care too much.
After one person made a move, several more people began to take action to lead the disciples directly up the mountain.
Looking at the auspicious clouds flying by in the sky from time to time, Lin Fan said with a smile: "Jiang Wen, isn't your family quite rich?" Why don't you want to find a place and go straight up the mountain? β
Jiang Wen had a bitter look on his face, and he said: "Didn't I say it, my father doesn't support me to go to Taiyi Immortal Gate to practice, he wants me to inherit the position of the city lord of Yanshan City." β
In the past few days, Jiang Wen has also confessed his identity, he is indeed a relative of Jiang Wenxuan, the city lord of Yanshan City.
But the relationship is closer, it is father and son.
Lin Fan chuckled when he heard this.
And at this moment, a shadow floated from the two of them.
"Why are you here?"
Lin Fan looked up and saw that the person who came was holding a spear, wearing a red and white dress, and was looking at him with raised eyebrows.
Jiang Wen on the side was stunned for a moment, and then his mouth opened naturally, and his saliva flowed.
"Immortal...... Fairy? β
Bang!
This time, Lin Fan unabashedly punched Jiang Wen, and then said with a smile on his face: "Didn't I come to find my fiancΓ©e?" β
The person who came was Tang Xue.
"You and I have divorced, who is your fiancΓ©e?"
"Also, to participate in the Taiyi Immortal Gate's Immortal Ascension Conference, you need to be under the age of twenty to reach the foundation building period, have you recovered your strength? Just come and participate? β
Tang Xue pursed her lips with a look of disdain, but her eyes couldn't help but look at Lin Fan.
The latter operated the aura, and a faint light covered the body.
"You see, the middle stage of serious foundation building."
"Cut, it's only the middle of the year, my aunt and grandmother are all complete, eat farts in the back, you ...... slightly" Tang Xue grimaced, and then picked up her gun and hurried towards the mountain.
As soon as Lin Fan wanted to chase, he heard a voice coming from behind him.
"Boy, you're really ghostly!"
Looking back again, I saw that the woman who had withdrawn from the marriage with Tang Xue was standing behind him in the air.
"I've seen my seniors." Lin Fan gave a salute.
After all, the other party is an elder, and when he divorced, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and even promised Tang Xue to take himself who had lost his cultivation into the Immortal Gate to repair his body.
is reasonable, and there is no reason for me to be inferior.
Seeing Lin Fan's salute, the woman also looked like she had nowhere to go, he glanced at Lin Fan coldly, and then said: "My name is Tang Nian, if there is anything after the entrance, you can come to Ziyun Peak to find me, and it will be the compensation for the Tang family's repentance of marriage, but there is one point, you must no longer pester Xue'er, Xue'er is different from ordinary people." β
After that, Tang Nian drove away in the clouds.
Lin Fan was dumbfounded.
Jiang Wen on the side seemed to have discovered a new continent, and leaned over and said, "Brother Lin, what does these two have to do with you?" β
Lin Fan reluctantly said his own thing.
After listening, Jiang Wen said excitedly: "I can't imagine that my brother has such an anecdote, don't worry, I Jiang Wen will give my full support to you in chasing Tang Xue's girl." β
Looking at his idiot appearance, how could Lin Fan not know what kind of calculation he was playing?
Keep going.
At this time, the two of them could no longer see anyone in front of them or behind them.
After all, it is 100,000 heavenly steps, and thousands of people scatter it, and Mao can't see it.
And as the higher the level climbed, the stairs became narrower and narrower, from more than ten meters wide at the beginning, to only about one meter wide now.
Barely able to walk side by side.
At the same time, with each step forward, more and more effort is expended.
Jiang Wen was obese, and even with the assistance of Reiki, he was already tired and out of breath at this time.
"Oh my God, how many more layers are there!" As he spoke, Jiang Wen was already squatting on the ladder.
Lin Fan also stopped, he looked up, there were clouds and mist in front of him, and some green pines and cypresses loomed among them.
As expected, there was no big fight on the road, and some were just lonely and tired.
"I think it should be soon, after all, this ladder is getting shorter and shorter."
Jiang Wen said bitterly: "This staircase was like this more than an hour ago, pointing at him to distinguish between distance and proximity, I don't think it's reliable." β
"Besides, now we can't even see the sun, and we can't know what time it is."
When Lin Fan heard this, he looked up, only to see that the top of his head was also covered by clouds and mist, and he couldn't see the light of day.
He frowned slightly, and said, "It seems that this 100,000 Heavenly Rank is even more troublesome than I imagined!" β
When the clouds cover the surroundings, they lose their references, and they don't know how far they have traveled.
Covering the sun again, people lose the concept of time.
After all, what the man said was that he had climbed the 100,000 heavenly steps before sunset, but now he has not seen the sun, and naturally he does not know when the sun will set.
If you are a person with poor psychological quality, you will definitely be anxious and spare no effort to climb.
And because of the increasingly strong oppressive force around you, if you don't hold back, then you will encounter danger once you wait......
Thinking of this, Lin Fan had already calmed down.
He took out some food from the ring and handed it to Jiang Wen: "Let's rest for a while." β
Jiang Wen, who was originally a foodie, faced the food in his mouth, but he was not interested, he waved his hand and said: "I'm not hungry, let's go quickly, if I wait until the sun goes down, it will be troublesome, I don't want to go home and be the city lord for the rest of my life." β
With that, Jiang Wen got up again and prepared to continue moving forward, but Lin Fan grabbed him.
"Let's take a break, theoretically, there should be plenty of time now."
Jiang Wen saw that Lin Fan insisted, so he sat down and ate the food in a big gulp.
Lin Fan also slowly breathed his body.
After a while, several monks chased after him, and when he saw the two of them sitting there resting, one of the young monks smiled contemptuously: "Hmph, what's the use of rushing so fast, 100,000 heavenly steps, the competition is patience, you ......"
"Don't talk nonsense with them, there's still a long way up there, let's go." At the front of the back, a monk in a brocade robe urged.
When the man heard this, he hurriedly followed.
Lin Fan could see that they were also very tired.
"Just follow you and see what tricks these guys from Taiyi Immortal Gate are swiping."
Thinking of this, Lin Fan pulled up Jiang Wen, who was full of oil, and said, "Let's go, follow them." β
Jiang Wen was dragged and stumbled, almost not falling.
"Slow down, slow down, my big elbow."
β¦β¦
Deep in the clouds.
Zhang Qixuan set his eyes on Lin Fan and the others again.
"Heh, this son is a little scheming, it's hard to say about his future achievements, at least he won't die inexplicably."
As one of the four main peak masters, Jiang Baixing stood up and commented with his thin body: "In the middle stage of foundation building, my cultivation is average, and I am a little older. β
"But it's okay to read his heart, wait a minute, if he passes Wu Chi's level, I will take him away."
After Jiang Baixing said his words, a middle-aged monk with a stubble on his face spoke: "I said Jiang Baixing, you are not an internal decision, and it will only count when someone goes down first." β
"Hmph, you can take care of the refining of the sect's pills, weapons, and talismans, what do you want so many immortal seedlings to do?" Jiang Baixing said coldly.
"Hey, I just want it, there are places in each of the forty-nine peaks, what can you do with me?"
Tong Yunhua, as the peak master of Wuchengfeng, has been fighting with Jiang Baixing for half a lifetime, and watching each other eat deflated is the greatest pleasure.
"Hmph, boring." Jiang Baixing snorted coldly and stopped talking.
Seeing this, Zhang Qixuan, who was on the side, teased: "Heh, you two old guys, you are still so aggressive. β
Then, he looked to his side again and asked, "Senior Brother Yuanqing?" Is there anyone you like? β
Liu Yuanqing was dressed in a black robe, his hair was gray, and he looked like he was fifty or sixty years old, and at this time, he was frowning, looking at the 100,000 Heavenly Steps below.
According to his correspondence with his family, this time a clansman who had built the foundation of the Perfection Realm would come to worship the mountain.
It's just that he searched up and down several times just now, but he didn't see the clansman.
Now that Zhang Qixuan asked, Liu Yuanqing arched his hand and said, "I'm sorry, senior brother, I have something to go down the mountain." β
"The disciple of Hengjiang Peak, I will ask the senior brother in charge to help worry about it."
Zhang Qixuan was stunned when he heard this: "Huh? What's the matter? β
"No, it's just a personal matter." Liu Yuanqing said.
Zhang Qixuan didn't ask deeply, and nodded in agreement.
Then, Liu Yuanqing flashed and left.
On the other side, Lin Fan and Jiang Wen walked for about half an hour when they heard the faint sound of weapons colliding in front of them.
After hearing the voice, the two looked at each other, and then their steps sped up a little.
On the stone steps, Tang Xue was fighting fiercely with a white-clothed swordsman.
The white-clothed swordsman occupies a favorable position, but Tang Xue's marksmanship is not bad.
Stab, stab, point, pluck, a series of swift and ferocious attacks, the battlefield white-clothed swordsman can only keep retreating to relieve the pressure.
Seeing that the other party was retreating, Tang Xue was more aggressive, and a spear was waved in her hand impenetrably, and she had to pierce the opponent several times, but she was skillfully dodged by her.
After Tang Xue failed to succeed in several attempts, she was obviously a little impatient, she stepped forward and made heavy hands, but they were all resolved by the other party one by one.
Just when Tang Xue stepped forward again, wanting to shake the spear.
The white-clothed swordsman smiled secretly, and then there were three more silver needles glowing green in his hand.
Go!
The white sleeve robe shook, and the silver needle flew out of his hand.
Tang Xue didn't expect that the other party would actually use such a bad trick, she stared at her, and scolded angrily: "Despicable villain." β
At the same time as he flashed the silver needle, the white-clothed swordsman had already swung his sword to kill.
"Senior sister, senior brother is going to make a move, be careful."
Tang Xue didn't panic at all, she saw a flash of the ring in her hand, and then a black hollow iron bucket more than one meter long and the thickness of the bowl mouth appeared in her hand.
"Hmph, play with me with a secret weapon, you really met your ancestor!"
With that, Tang Xue aimed the hollow iron bucket at the white-clothed swordsman and pulled the mechanism.
Bang!
With a bang, a puff of white smoke erupted from the iron barrel, and at the same time, hundreds of cow hair needles erupted.
The white-clothed swordsman was shocked when he saw this!
"Rainstorm Pear Flower Needle!"
He hurriedly stretched out the aura barrier defense, but the rainstorm pear flower needle in Tang Xue's hand was detonated with a spirit stone, and it was extremely powerful.
The tiny needle filaments like cow's hair penetrate the aura barrier without hindrance.
If it weren't for the white-clothed swordsman who reacted very quickly and hid to the side at the last moment, his little life would not be guaranteed.
Tang Xue took advantage of this opportunity to step over the steps with a gun.
