Chapter 260: Immortal fate is hard to find
He Zhi and his entourage climbed up the mountain steps not very fast, and from behind the three of them, people came in a hurry from time to time. These people are basically martial artists above the congenital realm, and under the light skill, the speed is extremely fast, and after a while, they surpassed He Zhi and his party and disappeared on the vast mountain road.
At the beginning, Han Ergongzi was still able to calm down. But as several people climbed upward, more and more people overtook them and ran ahead, and Han Ergongzi gradually began to get anxious.
"Brother He, Lao Lu, should we also hurry up?"
"What's the hurry?" He Zhi glanced at Han Ergongzi with a smile, still climbing upwards unhurriedly.
Han Ergongzi saw that He Zhi was not in a hurry at all, and he could only suppress the anxiety in his heart.
The three of them walked forward for a while, and two or three people who came to find the fairy fate passed behind them again.
The old boatman was also a little cramped at this time, he looked up at the mountain road in front of him, which still had no end in sight, suddenly stopped, and said to He Zhi and Han Ergongzi with a wry smile: "Two sons, this mountain road is so long, I don't think I can go to the end." If the two sons miss the fairy fate because of me, then I am afraid that I will not be able to feel at ease for the rest of my life. I think we'll just separate here. If the two sons go all out, they may be able to catch up. ”
"Hey, what are you talking about, old Lu? We've all come here together. How can you give up? Let's work hard, and we'll be able to catch up together!"
Although Han Ergongzi was anxious in his heart, when he heard the old boatman say this, he was embarrassed, and hurriedly expressed his attitude to cheer up the old boatman.
"Hehe, Lao Lu, what you just said is really wrong. He Zhi couldn't help laughing, and said to the old boatman, "Immortal Yuan, the most important thing is the word 'Yuan'. As the saying goes, there is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, but there is no chance to meet on the other side. Lao Lu, have you ever heard of the immortal fate in any place where you can bump into it simply by running fast? If you can meet the immortal fate if you run fast, and you can't meet it if you walk slowly, then what other test do these immortals have? Just make a light skill competition and see who can run fast. ”
"Uh...... What Brother He said seems to make some sense. Han Gongzi nodded again and again when he heard this, and his expression relaxed a lot.
Although he was talking about keeping the old boatman just now, he was still a little anxious in his heart. But hearing He Zhi say this, Han Ergongzi suddenly felt reasonable.
If Xianyuan can really be met if you run fast, but you can't meet it if you run slowly, then everyone should simply go to practice light skills! There are so many heroes on the rivers and lakes who are powerful in light skills, and I haven't seen a few of them who can bump into Xianyuan!
Moreover, the Mr. He in front of him is not an ordinary person. Since he is not in a hurry, what else should I be anxious about? With this Mr. He here, can he still make everyone miss the hour?
When Han Ergongzi thought about it in his heart, he immediately felt refreshed, and his heart was not in a hurry.
When the old boatman heard He Zhi's words, he naturally wouldn't let the two of them drop his words. He nodded gratefully to He Zhi and Han Ergongzi, and then the three of them continued to climb up the mountain.
As the trio moved forward, they could still see people behind them constantly overtaking the past.
At the beginning, every time he was surpassed, Han Ergongzi still had some bad taste. But when he saw the back, Han Ergongzi was puzzled.
"Hey...... I said, Brother He, there are too many people who come up from this immortal mountain to bump into the immortal yuan, right? We've only been here for a while? I've seen almost a dozen or twenty people. If we continue like this, wouldn't there be hundreds of people going up the mountain to hit the fairy fate within this day? When I found the jade pendant before, the immortal in the jade pendant told me that it would take seven days for this immortal mountain to open its gate in total. If that's the case, wouldn't there have to be thousands of people on the mountain?"
Han Ergongzi counted with his fingers, and the more he calculated, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Hehe, Second Master Han, you finally found out?" He Zhi couldn't help laughing, "Didn't you pay attention to those people who walked past us before?"
"Well, I haven't really looked at it closely...... Besides, what do I think they do?"
"Hey, Gongzi You're saying that, I seem to have seen a few people chasing after us twice. When the old boatman heard this, he scratched his head and smiled, "At first, I thought it was because I was old and dizzy, and I didn't recognize people clearly. But Mr. He, you said that, am I not mistaken?"
"Exactly. He Zhi also nodded with a smile and said, "Uncle Lu is right. There were three groups of people who had passed behind us twice. ”
"Ah, is there such a thing?" Han Ergongzi's face was full of surprise, and he couldn't help but put his right hand on the top of his head and looked at the top of the mountain, "Is there anything strange on this mountain?"
"That's natural. Since it is a fairy fate, the road of mountaineering will definitely not be smooth sailing. If you want to bump into the immortal fate and meet the immortals, how can it be possible without a little test?" He Zhi also smiled and said to Han Ergongzi, "You should have seen it before, right? On the way up the mountain, almost every other section, there will be a fork in the road. ”
"yes. But don't all of these forks lead to the top of the mountain? whichever one you choose, you should all go in the same direction. And we didn't see it before, there are a few forks in the road that are only a dozen zhang long, and you can directly see that side from this side. It's not like there's something weird going to go up there, right?"
"Hehe......" He Zhi looked at Han Sangongzi, who was full of curiosity, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head, "If you go the wrong way, it will naturally be weird." Otherwise, those people on this mountain would not have been going around us in circles. ”
He Zhizheng was talking to Han Sangongzi, and the three of them saw two more people chasing after them quickly.
And the appearance of these two people, Han Ergongzi still remembers it vividly - it is the two who showed contempt for He Zhi and his party at the foot of the mountain before!
At this time, although the speed of these two people is still unabated, they look less relaxed than when they met at the foot of the mountain just now. There was also a layer of fine sweat on the two of them, and their steps became a little heavy.
When these two people ran forward quickly, and when they saw He Zhi and his party, they were all stunned, and then they were taken aback.
"This ...... How is this possible?" The first of the two to laugh at He Zhi and the others for killing and laughing at him exclaimed to his companion in a tone as if he had seen a ghost, "Aren't they the people we met at the foot of the mountain when we first arrived at the Immortal Mountain in the morning? Didn't we leave them behind tomorrow morning? How did they run in front of you and me?"
"I don't know. The man's companion also looked like he had seen a ghost, "This fairy mountain is really strange! With our footsteps, we should have already reached the top of the mountain a long time ago." But how long have we been walking around here? It's been almost two hours, isn't it? But as far as the eye can see, you can't even see where the top of the mountain is. I don't think those people seem to be in a hurry at all, and it's strange that they can run ahead of us!
"Hey, Brother Wang, are you dizzy? These people looked at the footsteps of the vain, especially the first one, who was obviously an inferior person like a boatman's feet and teeth. I don't know where they heard the rumors and came here to try their luck. What can you ask this kind of person?"
"Hmm......" The man glanced at He Zhi and the others with a slight hesitation. When his gaze swept over the old boatman, his brow furrowed imperceptibly.
"It's ...... too," the man turned his head and nodded to his companion, "I was really dizzy thinking about inquiring about news from a few mortals." Well, you and I should hurry up. ”
As he spoke, the two monks quickened their pace again and ran in front of He Zhi and his party again.
"Hey! two idiots. Beside He Zhi, the sword spirit who had been suspended in the air looked at the backs of the two of them, with a wicked smile on his face, "In this kind of chaotic space, they dare to run around, like them, they can't find the entrance to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect until they die." ”
"It's a complicated situation here. The more I went up, the more I couldn't tell the difference between the real and the unreal. The magic weapon of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is really powerful in illusion. He Zhi couldn't help but sigh to the sword spirit.
"Hmph! It's just going to mess with these nonsense things. As soon as he heard He Zhi praise the magic weapon of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, the sword spirit was full of unconvinced, "It's just a fantasy, it's just a small path! If I meet it head-on, I will kill it with one sword!"
"Hehe, yes, yes, if it meets head-on, it will definitely not be your opponent. But the problem now is that if I keep going, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to choose the right path every time. He Zhi shook his head helplessly.
"Hey, what are you afraid of? Second Master, you are a martial arts Daoist, and you are sincere and holy! Just with the foundation of the Second Master's martial arts, and my assistance, our delusional ability is not blown! Unless it is a phantom array personally arranged by the great power of the realm above the Heavenly Immortal, even if it is a phantom array in the Earth Immortal Realm, we will still break it to him!" The sword spirit flew to the position above He Zhi's head, and patted his chest with confidence.
"You mean, you could have helped before, but you deliberately didn't do anything all the time?" He Zhi deliberately turned his face and looked at Sword Spirit with a frown.
"Hey...... Didn't we see that the second master and your own skills are enough, so let's let the second master show off first?" The sword spirit laughed evilly, and there was a bit of flattery when he spoke to He Zhi.
"When is this all right?Can I still have the mind to show it?" He Zhi waved his hand angrily and said to the sword spirit, "Since you have a way for me to be able to penetrate the delusion, why don't you hurry?"
"Okay, good, little lord law. The sword spirit also agreed half-seriously and half-teasingly, and then turned into a sword and flew into He Zhi's eyebrows.
At the moment when the sword spirit flew into the center of his eyebrows, He Zhi really felt that his spiritual power seemed to have increased several times at once!
Originally, on this mountain road, He Zhi always felt as if there was a veil in front of him. Everything around him looked vague and unclear. Especially every time you encounter a fork in the road.
When he first went up the mountain, He Zhi was still able to distinguish which fork in the road belonged to the real and which fork led to the illusionary space, and after entering, he would go in another direction in the illusion. Because in He Zhi's eyes, illusory paths often reveal a hazy feeling, and at a glance, you can know that they are transformed with soul power, not really real.
However, as He Zhi climbed higher and higher up the mountain, the vague feeling in front of him became stronger and stronger. This feeling is similar to the feeling of He Zhi wearing a pair of myopic glasses with a deep prescription in his previous life. In this case, it became more and more difficult for He Zhi to discern which one belonged to the real and which one belonged to the false from several similar forks in the road. Because the original clear true path began to become hazy and blurred in He Zhi's eyes.
However, as the sword spirit flew into He Zhimei's heart, all of this suddenly changed drastically! All the haze, all the blur disappeared in an instant!
He Zhi only felt that the world in front of him was clearer than he had ever been!
The surrounding grass and trees, insects and birds are so vivid and lively in He Zhi's eyes, and He Zhi even feels an extremely pure beauty from this world.
Of course, this kind of "beauty" only exists in the real world.
As for the "illusory" conjured up by the magic weapon of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect with soul power, it was also extremely obvious in He Zhi's eyes at this time! Those illusory passages were like 3D puzzles on an electronic computer in He Zhi's eyes at this time. Piece by piece, it reveals a clear sense of stiffness and unreality.
As soon as He Zhi received the assistance of the sword spirit, he saw with his own eyes that the two "masters" who had just surpassed them had once again entered an illusory passage, and after a while, they were teleported to an unknown place.
He Zhi looked up at the mountain and saw that on the entire mountain, there were still some people who were constantly climbing upward. Sometimes they were able to choose the right path, but other times, they were transported to a random location under the mountainside after burrowing into an illusory passageway.
There are almost twenty or thirty illusory passages in total on the entire mountain. Many people who longed for immortal fate continued to climb upwards, and were constantly teleported to the bottom of the mountainside by the illusory passages—they didn't even realize that they had been doing useless work.
Immortal fate is hard to find. Seeing such a scene, He Zhi understood the meaning of this sentence.
If you can't be wise and have eyes that can penetrate the delusion, then these people want to find a way to reach the top of the mountain, and they really need amazing luck!
