Chapter 177: Flying Across the Sky
After leaving Jinju Fortress, go to the northwest, and after about 80 miles, there is the Tianzhu Mountain Range.
The reason why it is called the pillar of heaven is that only the mountains are stacked on top of each other, towering and steep, like thousands of pillars standing on the ground and reaching the sky.
Rumors go deep into it, every step forward, it will be one zhang higher, after a hundred steps, such as climbing the peak, the hand can pick the star.
The highest peak in the mountain range is located in the westernmost and northernmost end, the shape is like a bamboo shoot, the whole body is mostly gray-white limestone, only the peak shows the ink color, the shape resembles a brush dipped in ink, so it is named the peak of the magic pen.
Although the Shenbi Peak is high, there is a winding path that extends to its ninety percent high, and the remaining hundred zhang is not difficult to climb for the master of light skills.
Ascending the Shenbi Peak, you can look up at the vastness of the universe, overlook the magnificence of the peaks, travel with your eyes, and enjoy the entertainment of hearing and hearing.
Looking to the northwest, you will find the wilderness.
The wilderness is a hundred feet away from the Tianzhu Mountains, and the ravines are vertical and horizontal, which can be described as a chasm, no matter which side of the fall falls, the result is either to fall to pieces, or never see the light of day.
Even if it is the closest Shenbi Peak to the southeast side of the Wilderness Plain, although the distance between the two will be a hundred zhang, which cannot be crossed by human beings, it is only prohibitive.
Therefore, for thousands of years, no matter from the south to the north, from the east to the west, people have bypassed the Tianzhu Mountains and traveled back and forth between the barren plains and Jinju.
Until a few decades ago, the four famous light masters in the world, the Divine Thief Empty Hatred, the Sword Immortal Li Jiechen, the first killer Han Wuyue, and the Snow Traceless Wen Renfei were first invited to compete in the Tianzhu Mountain Range, and then invited the forging master Duan Tianzhu to discuss the great plan, wanting to break this natural danger.
Master Tianzhu spent 7749 days to cast iron cables longer than 100 zhang, and invited more than 100 people from the rivers and lakes to go to the Shenbi Peak and the Wilderness to witness such a grand event.
At that time, the four masters of light skills relied on their own outstanding light skills and borrowed from each other, constantly flying back and forth on top of the natural hazards, and the iron ropes lay across them.
The scene in the past can be described as shocking, Rao is four people have outstanding achievements, but they are still in danger with the weight of the iron rope, that is, even the onlookers are worried and cold sweat.
Fortunately, with the concerted efforts of the four of them, it took about an hour to finally complete this terrifying act, using iron cables to connect the Divine Brush Peak and the Reckless Plain.
Compared with the detour, this iron cable road can save the rest of the day's journey, and this road is also called Lingxiao Ferry by the people in the rivers and lakes.
Although Ling Xiaodu retracted into the distance between the Tianzhu Mountains and the Wilderness, it was not practical, because this iron ropeway could only be stood on by one person on its side, and horses and goods could not work.
And Ling Xiaodu has the so-called four buts, those who are not light and outstanding must not pass, those who are not bold and careful, those who are not determined to pass, those who are not in danger and chaos cannot pass, and the four are indispensable.
Therefore, after all, ordinary people turn back the same way and take the iron ropeway, basically by conquering the natural danger and proving their prestige.
*********
Bi E's ability is only a little worse than Shang Que's, making him a double hand, changeable, and uncontrollable, which is not the ability of today's Jiang Yichen.
Listening to Lan Gongzi's prediction, Bi E, who was in a hurry, would take a shortcut and take the dangerous road of Lingxiaodu, so he gave Jiang Yichen a move.
Rushed to Shenbi Peak in advance, taking advantage of the benefits of waiting for work, taking advantage of calming and controlling restlessness, and taking advantage of natural dangers that have no way out to speak of, and ended Bi'e's life in Lingxiao.
As for Jiang Yichen's method of destroying the iron cable, it was denied on the spot.
The iron rope of Lingxiaodu is made of black iron that has been tempered for thousands of years, and it can only be smelted and reshaped by refining fire for seven days and seven nights, but it is not easy to raise a fire at the peak of the fierce wind, and it is impossible to make the fire last for seven days.
*********
The sun was shining, the sun was scorching the earth, and the slightest crackling sound could be heard everywhere in the wilderness, but the slightest movement would cause a lively scene.
In the wilderness, a man and a rider were galloping in the southeast direction, dusty and noisy.
Horses are good horses, but people are ugly.
The reason why ugly people are called ugly is that they have strange appearances, or the proportions of their organs are uncoordinated, or they are more disabled than ordinary people.
This ugly man is strong and strong, and there are no arms or legs, but his head is big and his eyebrows are thick, his eyes are protruding, and his beard is so thick that it covers his cheeks, which is intimidating to see, and it is called ugly.
The ugly man wore only a coarse cloth short, and his strong muscles and scars everywhere added to his ruthlessness.
The mount under his crotch hung a sheepskin pouch for wine, and the ugly man carried two double hammers at his waist, but there was no other bag, and with his dusty face, he was obviously in a hurry to make everything simple, and to travel lightly.
If it is not indeed a square quadrangular shape, the more it gradually becomes a square conical shape towards its end, it will always make people mistake it for a short copper stick, after all, the top of the ordinary copper mace used for stabbing is not sharp, and it can even be described as round and blunt.
Generally, the copper mace body has edges and no blades, the edges and corners are prominent, and there are end joints at every distance of six or seven inches, so as to aggravate the hitting effect, and the four edges of this mace not only have blades, but also are jagged, and the double mace strikes each other like a giant crocodile opening its mouth to prey, sharp teeth, destroying withering and decaying.
The double hammer is called the crocodile tooth, and the ugly man with the crocodile tooth is the deputy master of the Earth Demon Gate, and is called the Earth Demon Star of the giant crocodile in the lake - Bi E.
Bi E has a strong body, but if he wants to say that his strength is infinite, it is difficult to match the other master of the door, Ying Long.
He is flexible and changeable, but if he is as fast and vigorous as a cheetah, he is beyond the reach of the master Shangque.
But these are all comparative, on the contrary, Bi E has both the fierceness of Ying Long, and the swiftness of Shang Que, and although his appearance is not like a giant crocodile, but he has a thick skin like a giant crocodile, and its strength is second only to Shang Que at its peak, that is to say, if the increasingly depressed Shang Que wants to compete with him, it may be difficult to win.
After receiving the urgent news from Shang Que, Bi E was in a hurry, and he couldn't sit still for a while, and after explaining to the accompanying several hall masters, he rode thousands of miles and went straight to this Lingxiao crossing, in order to rush back to Jinzhou in the shortest possible time.
The three masters of the Disha Sect often gather together to discuss sect matters, and it is precisely for this reason that Bi E is particularly worried about the state of Shang Que in recent years, and he can also see that his attitude towards the mortal world is getting more and more tired, and on weekdays, it is all up to himself and Ying Long to worry about managing the gang, and he only has his mind at the big node, this time it must be a mistake in the details, and no one will investigate it carefully, which will endanger the survival of the sect.
The ruthlessness against the Earth Demon Gate is by no means something that a hairy boy can do, and now the only way to find out the hidden forces or helpers behind it is the key, and Shang Que sent all the remaining hall masters out of Jinzhou, saying that he was left alone in Jinzhou to drag the opponent, but his lonely and dangerous behavior is very likely to die in vain.
Bi E was worried all the way, afraid that when he arrived a moment late, what he saw was Shang Que's cold corpse, although he complained about this brother's style of behavior, but since the establishment of the Disha Gate, the three masters have supported each other and helped each other for more than ten years, and he has never lost this brotherhood, and he does not want to lose it.
So, he drove for a day and a night, and did not sleep all night.
Riding his horse to the cliff, Bi E flew straight to the ropeway, but he didn't care about the horses, and no matter how good the horse was, it couldn't withstand the life of his brother.
The horizon of the wilderness is slightly lower than that of Shenbi Peak, so from north to south, it is from low to high.
Although the sun was scorching, the cold wind between the hundreds of heavenly dangers was still cold, however, the anxious and arrow-like Bi Efen was not affected, and after landing on the ropeway, he galloped quickly.
The ropeway was swaying in the wind, but this time it trembled even more at Bi'e's feet.
But when Bi E ran through a third of the distance, he saw that after a violent shaking of the ropeway, he didn't move at all.
Seeing that there was an extra figure in his sight, Bi E stopped his pace and stabilized his body.
The man who came was dressed in white fluttering, holding a sword and standing alone, and was landing a third of the way on the other side of the ropeway.
Lingxiao crossing has a hundred zhang long, and the middle of it is the most dramatic place to shake, if you fight here, a little careless, you will lose your balance, fall into danger, so as to weak the enemy strong, it is really a good choice.
Bi E had never seen this white-clothed swordsman, but he was not half unfamiliar with this swordsman, although it was dozens of feet apart, he could still see his emaciated face that was covered by his long flowing hair, and his face was not outstanding compared to himself, but it looked handsome and chic.
The young man's face would not have been the focus of Bi E's attention, the white-clothed, purple jade sword, the key words mentioned in the urgent message flashed in his mind.
In the letter, Shang Que first mentioned that the five hall masters were killed in the middle of the night most of the month ago, and then recounted the recent successive deaths of the hall masters, although he did not give a clear conclusion, but the answer was already very clear, no matter which side of these things was in charge, the white-clothed swordsman in front of him was the executor of these events.
Bi E untied the crocodile tooth on his waist, he couldn't care about the current situation in Jinju City for the time being, but he was bent on cutting off the head of the young swordsman to pay tribute to the dead brothers.
The ropeway trembled again, because Bi E was like a brute bull and rushed straight towards Jiang Yichen.
The shaking ropeway took Jiang Yichen up and down, but it didn't prevent him from exerting his sword qi.
With the help of the Heavenly Providence Technique, nearly ten Heavenly Illusion Sword Qi wrapped in an extremely cold aura shot towards Bi E in an instant.
If there is spare space to dodge, no one will take these sword qi hard, although these sword qi seem to have limited lethality, but Bi E, who has been in a hundred battles, knows in his heart that if he intends to dodge these sword qi, he will inevitably leave the ropeway with both feet, so that the opponent can take advantage of this gap to catch himself off guard with a fierce move.
In order to be safe, Bi E did not choose to dodge the Heavenly Illusion Sword Qi, but just operated the Earth System Exercise Rock Sutra, so that the rock-solid internal breath attached to his body, and at the same time waved his double gong to dispel the Dao Sword Qi.
The momentum of Bi E's advance did not slow down for a moment, he saw that the hard power of this swordsman should be difficult to match his own, so he chose this dangerous situation, taking advantage of his poor mental state and a little impatient, to establish an advantage through long-range attacks.
He knew that as long as the distance was advanced and the hand-to-hand combat was in close proximity, his advantage would be greater.
In a moment's time, more than a dozen Heavenly Illusion Sword Qi flew in, and the posture of the white-clothed swordsman remained unchanged from beginning to end.
Bi E, who was moving quickly, couldn't help but be suspicious, as if he realized the purpose of the swordsman, and the swordsman didn't expect to hurt him through the sword qi.
Although the Rock Sutra can make him feel no pain or itching, the biting chill is constantly superimposing.
The muscles that had been relaxed under the scorching sun gradually became tense and stiff under the double cooling of the cold wind and the cold qi attached to the sword qi.
He found that his hands were becoming more and more disobedient!
