"Hmm......"

In a trance, Chen Yuan didn't know what was going on in his head at this time, he only knew that he reached out and grabbed the stone steps and climbed up. At first, the climbing gate was still very easy, but after a hundred steps, the body was like carrying a boulder weighing dozens of pounds.

And the weight is still increasing, at this time, Chen Yuan has already stepped over the five hundred stone steps, and his body is like the pressure of carrying a hundred catties of boulders.

The time has also changed from the early morning when the qualification test is completed to the dark night when the lights are on!

The entire Qingyun Mountain was shrouded in dark night, there was no light on the mountain, Chen Yuan could only rely on the faint moonlight, and his fingers to feel the stone steps, the water and rice had not entered for a whole day, Chen Yuan only felt that he was a little unbearable, and his head was a little buzzing because of the pressure.

Shaking his chaotic head, Chen Yuan climbed up one step with his hands and feet, slowly moved to the corner of the steps, and tried to let himself rest, this trick was learned from a person who was also resting after two hundred steps, but this person didn't see anyone after three hundred steps.

After resting, Chen Yuan felt as if someone had appeared below, so he turned over and continued his arduous journey to the mountain.

Along the way, Chen Yuan no longer knew how many people there were. At the beginning, there was a large group of people, but at this time, Chen Yuan only felt that they had all disappeared, and he could only hear his own heavy gasping sound.

"Hey. ”

After climbing the first stone steps, a weak voice came from Chen Yuan's side. Chen Yuan, who was concentrating on mountaineering, was startled by the sudden shout, and thought he had met a ghost!

Thinking that he was on Qingyun Mountain, not in his own home, how could any ghost dare to come here, Chen Yuan put away his thoughts about encountering ghosts.

Whispered, "Who? Who's talking?"

"You look to the left. ”

Chen Yuan followed the prompt and looked to the left.

"You come closer. I have good stuff that helps with mountaineering, do you want to. The weak voice said again.

"What is it?" Chen Yuan saw clearly, it was a young man dressed in black.

"Good things, if I can't go up, I definitely won't sell them to you, you get closer, I'll show you!"

Chen Yuan's heart moved when he heard this, and the body he wanted to get close to was no longer close, and he hurriedly stayed away, if possible, Chen Yuan also wanted to leave here quickly.

Because when he was at the 400th level, Chen Yuan saw with his own eyes that someone kicked a competitor in the same way! The competitor who was kicked off the steps and fell into the abyss, but fortunately he was rescued by the disciples of Qingyunmen, although he did not fall into the abyss, he also lost his qualification to compete.

Although Chen Yuan left in time at this time, he also felt that he had been kicked hard in the chest, but fortunately, he was far away, he was on guard, and his strength was already a little scattered, so he would not be kicked off the steps, but he was kicked hard for no reason, which seemed a little aggrieved.

"Hey, you're on guard?" the person who spoke no longer felt weak.

Chen Yuan didn't want to entangle with this person, but just relied on the moonlight to vaguely remember this person's appearance, and wait until the future to take revenge!

Use your hands and feet together to get out of this place quickly.

The person who spoke, seeing that no one answered for a long time, saw a shadow far away by the faint moonlight, and scolded in his heart: "Silly pig, what are you crawling at night, don't hurry up and rest, keep your strength to climb during the day, and you can also kick out a few unlucky competitors in advance by taking advantage of the night!"

Then disappear again in the dim shadows, waiting for the next lucky one who is unlucky.

Let's go back to Chen Yuan, after leaving the land of right and wrong, he insisted on climbing the mountain despite his physical fatigue and hunger. Because he always remembers what his father said, "Good talent is not equal to success, diligence and perseverance are the source of success, if we are not talented, we must use ten times the efforts of those who are talented to not be pulled too far, or even surpass them!"

Although this sentence is a joke from his father after he was drunk, he has always been remembered by the little Chen Yuan.

Talent does not equal success, and everyone who succeeds has diligence and perseverance.

As time passed, the dark night began to lose its power to envelop the land, and the colorful scenes began to sparkle in the sunlight.

"Hmmm......"

A very discordant sound echoed in the bright mountains.

As far as the eye can see, it is a palm tightly resting on the stone steps with force, and the trembling finger joints are faintly white.

It was Chen Yuan who had climbed all night.

One night passed, Chen Yuan changed from the original five hundred steps to seven hundred and fifty steps, the more the stone ladder climbed back, the more difficult it was to parry, and the pressure on his body increased pound by pound, Chen Yuan was no longer a mountain climbing gate at this time, but a complete mountain climbing gate!

The clothes that were still complete yesterday were already torn at the knees, and the fingers were oozing drops of blood from the fingertips due to excessive exertion.

But Chen Yuan hasn't given up yet, he's still climbing!

It's hard to surpass so many people, how can you easily retreat, this is a rare opportunity in your life to rewrite your future!

At this time, there are not many people on the mountain gate.

I also want to say that in the early hours of the morning, some people who stayed on the same stone steps for a long time have been taken away from the mountain gate by Qingyunmen and have lost their qualifications for competition. The news is that in the early morning, the mighty sound from Qingyun Mountain informs every climber.

"This is forcing us to climb up without resting!" Chen Yuan thought to himself after hearing the news.

Chen Yuan paused for a moment, lay on the stone steps and sunk his face between his legs in an ugly posture, rested for a while, and adjusted his breathing and mood.

Chen Yuan did this many times along the way, at the beginning, someone from Qingyunmen observed him and didn't find anything abnormal, and after resting like this many times, no one paid attention to him.

This posture was learned by Chen Yuan from his father, and it can quickly recover his strength. Chen Yuan thought it was impossible at first, but later proved that his physical strength did recover faster than usual.

On the way to the mountaineering gate, Chen Yuan relied on this family heirloom to get here.

After resting enough, Chen Yuan looked behind him, only to see that there were only sparse figures left on the long stone stairs, and when he looked up, the fastest runner seemed to have climbed more than eight hundred steps, about to nine hundred.

What a good body!

Chen Yuan sighed in his heart, packed up his mood, used his hands and feet again, and started a new round of hard climbing.

......

The stone steps were stepped on, but the sweat on Chen Yuan's body was flowing and dripping, and his clothes were wet and dry.

There are not only climbers on the stone steps, but also animals playing around, sometimes looking curiously at the climbers, but none of them run to the top of the stone steps.

Suddenly, an ape ran to the stone steps, tilting its head and staring at Chen Yuan who was climbing.

Chen Yuan ignored it, but who knew that this ape had been following Chen Yuan, just looking, never approaching.

Chen Yuan looked at the ape and said helplessly: "Why don't you go to play, what are you doing with me?"

The ape didn't answer, his eyes just looked at Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan followed the ape's gaze to the sachet hanging from his belt.

This is a gift from my father when he left, the ordinary sachet does not have any special significance, I carried it with my waist, and I still left it on my body when I climbed the mountain, but it was only a small hole, exuding a rich fragrance.

Maybe the scent caught the ape's attention.

Chen Yuan thought, took off the sachet, and asked the ape, "Do you want this?"

The ape watched Chen Yuan take off the sachet, and his two hands stretched out to the sachet with some eagerness, but he suddenly remembered something and retracted it.

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, threw the sachet to the ape, the ape hesitated, looked at Chen Yuan, only to see Chen Yuan nodded, then happily picked up the sachet, put it under his nose and smelled it, and kept playing, as if he got some fun toy.

The corners of Chen Yuan's mouth were slightly upturned, and when he saw the ape walking away, he didn't think much about it anymore and continued to climb up.

The time of the day passed quickly like a white horse.

Another night has come.

At this time, Chen Yuan had also climbed to nine hundred steps.

He slowly pulled himself up the stone steps with his hands. At this time, his fingers were already covered with blood, and his legs were already full of blood! His clothes were in tatters, like a beggar!

"Finally, I'm still up!"

Chen Yuan fell on the stone steps, gasping for breath, and whispered weakly.

At this time, he hadn't eaten for two days, and his weakness had made him completely powerless.

There seemed to be a psychedelic sound in his ears, and at this moment, he seemed to be lying on a soft bed and didn't want to get up, just wanting to sleep comfortably. It was as if he had returned home, and the table was full of all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, tempting him to eat them.

The lullaby of my childhood mother sounded in my ears again, and my heavy eyelids were about to close completely in the gentle lullaby.

"No! No! My mother has never sung a lullaby to me, and the family has never eaten delicacies from the mountains and seas, where did it come from? Could it be that someone is playing tricks!" Chen Yuan's heart trembled, his mind suddenly cleared, and his heavy eyelids opened suddenly!

In an instant, all the phantoms that existed in his mind disappeared, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a group of people sitting in front of him, men and women, plus himself and just ten people.

"Haha! There is another person! If you can't even pass through the simplest Heart Refining Array, you don't have to go after that!"

It was a young girl who spoke, but she was not old enough to speak, but she looked old-fashioned.

Chen Yuan resisted the desire to open his mouth to ask, and did not talk, wanting to see what they were going to do.

"As far as I understand it, this is the last hundred steps, and as long as we pass through this last step, we can enter the outer door. The girl seemed to know some information about this place.

"But this last step is more difficult than the first nine hundred steps combined, so the ten of us have to move forward together, as long as everyone helps each other more, the final victory must be ours!"

The girl cheered everyone up.

But Chen Yuan didn't eat this, on the way to the mountain, he had seen all kinds of dark means to harm others and benefit himself, he didn't believe that there would be such a kind person.

Chen Yuan didn't pay attention to the girl, and the others didn't pay attention to her. Seeing that no one took care of herself, the girl was anxious for a while, so she simply took out two bottles of pills from her arms and said: "When I came, my father told me that if I didn't pass the qualification test, there would be a mountaineering test, and after reaching my own limit, in order to prevent exhaustion and lose my qualifications, so my father gave me this, this is the medicine that my father worked so hard to get, and it can restore seventy percent of his spirit! As long as everyone works together, I can share this with everyone." ”

Some of the people around him suddenly came to their senses, and some even asked for the name of the medicine and the name of the person refining it.

The girl glanced around proudly and said, "This medicine, called Shu Xinsan, has the effect of consolidating the foundation and relieving fatigue, my father spent a lot of money to buy it!"

After speaking, he pulled out the stopper and poured it in the palm of his hand, the balls were not big, there were five small bottles in total, and ten in two bottles.

Those who have fast hands are sure to climb to the top of the mountain together under the leadership of the girl and get one. The others followed suit and received the pill one after another, and in the end, only Chen Yuan was left behind.

The girl turned her head and asked Chen Yuan, "Hey, you can get one too, and we'll go up together later." ”

Chen Yuan ignored her.

The girl was not annoyed, she just threw the pill on Chen Yuan.

He picked one up and said, "Brothers, we have a hard battle next, for our future, we must cheer!"

After speaking, he took the lead in taking the pill, and then everyone walked up the nine hundred and one steps together, and the moment they passed, the girl's body trembled, but it quickly stabilized.

Chen Yuan never believed that the girl was so kind, and he even saw that a few people who received the pill just put the pill in their arms and didn't eat it.

Chen Yuan thought about it, wrapped his hand in a rag, picked up the pill, and did not put it in his arms, but threw it outside the stone steps with the rag.

Watching those who had already recovered their strength after taking the pill start the final sprint, Chen Yuan smiled bitterly in his heart, put on the posture he had learned from his father, and worked hard to recover his physical strength.

On the nine-hundred-step stone steps, Chen Yuan was finally the only one left.

The mountain breeze in the dark night also strengthened a little.
