Chapter 7 Practicing perseverance in the Hundred Steps Mountain, I'll talk to the machine spirit
Chen Shu followed everyone into the mountain gate, and the misty mountain gate like morning light disappeared as soon as he entered.
The noise of the crowd also stopped abruptly, and a whole new world appeared in front of me.
Eyes looked around and found that all the people who had come in with him were gone, and he was the only one inside.
Dreamland?
The powerful means of the immortal family, he has heard a lot from his grandfather, and this is one of them.
Slowly settle down and look around.
What catches your eye is a stone staircase, which is very high, almost as high as a Chen tree.
There is a line of words in the middle of the stone.
will go to the top of the mountain and see the mountains at a glance.
This hundred-step mountain is so mysterious. Only one step could be seen, and the steps behind it were buried in the fog and could not be seen.
On both sides are guardrails made of unknown wood, and when you look around, you can see the white clouds as far as the eye can see.
Chen Shu knew very well that he had not climbed a single step, but at this moment, the mountain surrounded by clouds was bottomless.
Chen Shu carefully observed and found that there was handwriting on the guardrail: If you climb, you will be crushed, and if you retreat, you will lose your life.
Looking at the words on it, Chen Shu reacted,
"It's more than perseverance!"
This introductory assessment is not only about perseverance, but also about the persistence of martial arts, as well as the recognition of nature.
"It will be the top of the mountain, and you can see the mountains at a glance. ”
Chen Shu silently tasted this sentence.
This sentence is not profound, and if you think about it, you will understand the meaning of this sentence.
"A very tempting word"
Who doesn't want to see the mountains at a glance, but how many people can do this?
Chen Shu shook his head and said
"It's good to be at the top of the mountain, but it's a long-term solution."
"Boom~"
There was a loud bang, and the one-person-high step slowly fell with a roar, and only stopped at the height of the ordinary step.
"Assessor, congratulations on passing the ladder of temptation, please ascend to the next ladder. ”
Suddenly, a voice came from all directions.
"That's it, it's over!"
His eyes turned, but there was no change in his surroundings, and the speaker was nowhere to be seen.
"Is this a spiritual weapon?"
Artifacts must be fed with spiritual power for many years to produce machine spirits before they can be called spiritual weapons.
"The palace gate is really rich"
Take a spiritual weapon to assess a disciple, isn't it rich?
Chen Shu pursed his lips and climbed the second step.
This second floor is obviously much larger than the first, with a total of more than 100 square meters.
As soon as he gained a foothold, three samurai with swords appeared in front of him, and there were various eighteen kinds of weapons on the shelves on one side.
"Hah!"
After Chen Shu stood still, the three warriors suddenly shouted and attacked.
The samurai in the middle made the first move, slashing at it with a single sword, only taking Chen Shu's head. Chen Shu dodged sideways, and the joint force behind him slashed at him, Chen Shu exerted force at his feet, and after dodging the blade with a front flip, he hurriedly ran over and drew a gun on the weapon rack.
When the three of them attacked, Chen Shu took the first hand to go out to sea, forcing back one person's attack, and then returned the gun to block another attack, when the tip of the third hollow knife stabbed Chen Shu in the chest. When Chen Shu turned to leave, he suddenly returned to the horse pistol and hit him in the back, which made his heart cold.
The remaining two warriors were also dealt with by Chen Shu one by one after a period of fighting.
As soon as the three samurai died, a staircase automatically appeared in front of him.
What he didn't expect was that the samurai of the third rank became five.
For Chen Shu, five or six samurai were not a problem at all.
Outcome.
There were seven on the fourth ladder, and Chen Shu was slightly injured.
There are nine steps in the fifth step, and Chen Shu is a little scolding his mother.
Eleven on the sixth ladder, Chen Shu greeted its ancestors.
There were thirteen steps on the seventh staircase, and Chen Shu was chased and ran for half an hour.
There were fifteen stairs in the eighth staircase, and Chen Shu dragged his wounds all over his body, as if he was being chased by a dog to ask for food, panting.
There are twenty on the ninth ladder, but this time it's different, it's not a group fight. I guess the designer found it in conscience! Let them come one by one without interruption.
When the tenth step appeared, to be honest, Chen Shu was a little panicked.
Thinking about the embarrassment of the ninth ladder, Chen Shu felt very aggrieved. Really, it's good, and others come one by one, is this appropriate?.
Fortunately, there is nothing on the tenth step, even if not, there is a stick of incense, a stick of incense that has just been lit.
And the miraculous thing is that when he just stepped into the tenth step, the injuries on his body healed in an instant. Chen Shu praised the magic of the immortal family.
"What the hell?"
Chen Shu was puzzled, what can I do with just a stick of incense, could it be that he knew that I was too tired in front of me and wanted me to take a break?
"Heh~"
Chen Shu laughed at himself, and hurriedly looked carefully at the space of more than ten square meters, and after he looked around to no avail, he looked down and found a pattern on the floor. Upon closer inspection, I found that this pattern was not simple. It feels very ancient to Chen Shu.
The pattern is a two-layer circle, and between the inner circle and the outer circle is a circle of people kneeling, as if praying for something in the inner circle. Looking at the inner circle again, it is a word, an ancient text that Chen Shu has never seen, and the lines of the handwriting are very clear. The whole pattern is purplish red.
Chen Shuzai carefully memorized it.
"What does the pattern mean? What do they bow down or pray, what does that word mean?"
A series of doubts filled Chen Shu with thoughts.
Soon, when a stick of incense burned out, the pattern disappeared and the next staircase slowly emerged.
The eleventh step is still the same pattern, but the inner circle is a different word, and the pattern has become yellow-brown.
"Do these patterns have any message?"
frowned slightly, squatted down, but couldn't see the doorway, "Like this, how can there be no passer?" Although the front is dangerous, it is not a hundred years that no one has passed. Unable to know the answer, Chen Shu silently waited for the arrival of the next ladder.
After a while, the twelfth staircase slowly emerged, Chen Shu walked to the edge of the pattern, squatted down to look, the outer circle was similar, but in the middle of the inner circle was another word, the pattern was white gold. Still no answer.
On the thirteenth step, the handwriting in the middle of the inner circle has been changed again, and the pattern is black and blue.
On the fourteenth step, the handwriting in the inner circle is another, and the pattern is blue-green.
When the fifteenth staircase appeared, Chen Shu climbed up but did not find the pattern, but there was a round table in the middle, and on the table was a game of chess.
Although Chen Shu is not very transparent, he also knows the rules of this game. Walking to the chess table, I looked at the chess game and found that black was already a dead game, no matter how it went. But instead of making a dead move, White made a wrong move.
It is clear on the board that the priority of the move was originally white, but after the concession of white, the priority became black, but black still had no way out.
"It's already a dead game, why does white make such a move?"
Chen Shu touched his chin and thought hard, and couldn't figure out what this chess game meant for a long time.
But if you have to pass this fifteenth ladder, you can't pass without breaking the game.
It seems that the entry assessment is not so easy to pass.
It's no wonder that the Hundred Steps Mountain, through the six ladders, is qualified. If none of them can qualify, then no one will be able to join the Northern Wilderness Palace.
Chen Shu still picked up the chess pieces in the black chess pot and observed the chess game around the chessboard, he wanted to understand why the white chess made such a move.
Combined with the previous patterns, but there is no clue about the combination. This made Chen Shu a little devastated.
"There is no correlation between the front and back combinations, isn't this level of assessment a chess game at all?"
Thinking like this, Chen Shu was suddenly shocked in his heart, and suddenly clapped his hands, "Yes! Who said that if you put a chess game, you must test your chess skills?"
Put away your restlessness and observe carefully
"What is this?"
Suddenly, he noticed that the black and white pieces were placed like a single word.
Looking at it in another direction, Chen Shu was shocked, it was a different word.
After a circle of 360 degrees, Chen Shu was stunned to find that the chess pieces were composed of 360 characters.
This earth-shattering discovery shocked his heart, perhaps, this mountain is not as simple as the assessment.
It turned out that the white piece was not a superfluous move at all, but had to be placed somewhere in order to form certain words.
"What the hell are these words hiding?"
Chen Shu was still trying to continue observing, when suddenly, the chess table in front of him disappeared and was replaced by a ladder.
"It seems that if you want to know the result, you have to go through the sixteenth staircase!" Chen Shu smiled majeure and raised his feet to enter the next staircase.
Inside the sixteenth staircase.
The sixteen stairs were completely different from the previous ones, and Chen Shu seemed to have entered a cave.
The white clouds disappeared and were replaced by a black distance.
Suddenly, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the black cave
"The Thunderer, the Cardinal of Heaven and Earth"
Chen Shu squinted his eyes, looking at the font composed of blue light that appeared at first glance, it was still ancient characters, it was not that Chen Shu suddenly recognized this handwriting, but that the machine spirit read it.
"Young man, it's been hundreds of years, and you're the only one who has discovered the mystery of this chess game, and when you come to this sixteen steps, is it possible that my Nine Days Thunder Night Palace has fallen so much?"
The voice of the machine spirit came from the darkness, with a hint of doubt
"Nine Heavens Thunder Palace?"
I haven't heard of it, isn't Baijie Mountain from the Northern Wilderness Palace? Chen Shu was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't dare to admit that he was not from the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace, and said
"Senior, the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace is no longer as good as it was back then, it's not easy for me to come here"
There is no way, Chen Shu can only come nonsense, and lie to him first.
"Really, do you think I'm a machine spirit and it's easy to deceive? The costume you're wearing is not my Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace at all."
The voice of the machine spirit has a hint of playfulness, how many years have not spoken, finally someone can come here, the machine spirit does not want to let him go so easily, by the way, inquire about the news outside.
"Hehe~"
Chen Shu smiled awkwardly, this instrument spirit doesn't seem to be an ordinary instrument spirit! I can't make it up, I don't know anything about the world of cultivating immortals, and I can't make it up.
"Seniors are not strange, juniors are disciples of the Northern Wilderness Palace, not disciples of the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace as the seniors said"
"Huh?"
The machine spirit let out a voice of disbelief and shouted:
"I am the innate spiritual treasure of the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace - Nine Thunder Treasure Mountain, you don't know my Nine Heavens Thunder Palace, what are you doing here?"
"Amount"
It seems that this machine spirit knows less than me, Chen Shu said in his heart, but the answer to this question is estimated that if Chen Shu says it, this machine spirit will be furious!
If you think about it, people's dignified innate spiritual treasures are used as assessment by a group of people who are not goods, and everyone in the pavilion is angry?
"I'm here to learn the exercises of the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace," I can only continue to talk nonsense.
"Hmm"
The machine spirit snorted, Chen Shu was overjoyed in his heart, is this recognized?
I only heard the machine spirit say, "The exercises of the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace are very people can learn, you haven't heard of the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace, but you can come here, which means that the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace no longer exists."
"When the palace master came to me for the last time, I already felt that there was a crisis in the palace. After hundreds of years of waiting, you were the first to get here. Didn't you say you wanted the exercises?"
"Senpai~"
Chen Shu didn't know how to answer, but he could hear the machine spirit's nostalgia for the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace
"The junior doesn't know where the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace is in your mouth, if the seniors are willing to believe the juniors, the juniors will definitely take you back to the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace"
"Back to the Thunder Palace?"
The machine spirit seemed to be reminiscing, and it seemed to think that it was a fool's dream, and laughed when talking
"It's okay if you have this heart, you're not even a martial artist now, let alone anything else. The exercises you want are not decided by me, but by yourself, and you have already obtained those three hundred and sixty words, which is also the reason for the destruction of the Nine Heavens Thunder Night Palace!"
"My predecessor just said that I am the only one who has come here for hundreds of years, but it is not difficult for me to look at the first fifteen steps, how can it be so few?"
Chen Shu raised his doubts and said, although he was extremely dangerous when he came, it would not be that no one had come here for hundreds of years, in that case, wouldn't the world be too incompetent.
"Hehe~"
The machine spirit laughed old-fashionedly, "Do you think the first nine steps are easy? That's the water I put on you, because I smelled a very familiar breath on you, and now I finally know what the breath is." ”
"Familiar aura?"
Chen Shu didn't know what the machine spirit meant, and wanted to continue to ask, but he heard the machine spirit say
"Okay junior, you've got the things, the road behind is not what you can walk now, come to me after you break through to the martial spirit!"
The voice of the machine spirit disappeared into the darkness, and the blue light dissipated into the air.
Suddenly, a dazzling light made Chen Shu have to close his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, he was already in the square.
