The 8,000-step stone staircase is a watershed.

Xin Youtao stood on the eight thousand and four stone steps, stretched out his hand to cover a tired yawn, turned his head and looked at Mu Xingqiu on the eighth thousand stone steps indifferently, stretched out his right hand and drew a half circle on his chest, "You are very proud to be able to come here, right?"

Xiao Qiu knew the prince's cowardice very well, and could throw out a few sarcastic words at any time, but these words disappeared after only one turn in his head, and he finally climbed to such a height, not to fight with someone, but to accept a more difficult test.

He had just adjusted his internal breath to calm his mood, and he never wanted to waste his efforts.

Xiao Qiu stepped up the stone steps, the cliff in his left hand, the cliff in his right hand, and the white clouds churned under his feet, except for being closer to Xin Youtao, the scene did not change, but Xiao Qiu's feelings changed dramatically: as if he had stepped into the middle of the flames, his head was burned, his skin melted, and three souls and seven spirits flew from the top of his head.

The most painful thing is that just one step back can make the pain go away. The ** behind him was so powerful that Xiaoqiu almost wanted to roll down directly.

"It's hot, isn't it, go down, it's cool. Xin Youtao did not miss the opportunity to sneer.

Xiaoqiu didn't look at him, tried to stand firm, recalled the tricks taught by Meng Yuanhou at the foot of the mountain, and made the breath and breath as long as possible, "A qiē cultivation is against the sky." Xiaoqiu remembered the words of Dujiao, and added another sentence: Heaven wants people to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but those who oppose the sky have to face difficulties.

The burning pain was just an illusion caused by the spell, and Xiao Qiu's body was still intact, and he tried to suppress the urge to retreat, and took another stone staircase upward.

Xin Youtao nodded approvingly, turned around and stepped up one level, so easy that it was no different from climbing ordinary stone steps, "Actually, I still admire you a little, Mu Xingqiu, when you fight with the snake demon, you are braver than others, but you are also a little stupid, knowing that you can't fight and rush up to die." Of course, you were lucky enough to meet the Five Elements Mage, and not only did you not die, but you also somehow got the Dao Root. ”

Xin Youtao turned his head and glanced at it, "Have you ever thought that your kid from Yelin Town is a little stronger than everyone else now, not because of better qualifications, but because your Dao Root is more special?"

Xiao Qiu knew what Xin Youtao was hinting at, yes, he had doubts, Yelin Town was an ordinary border town, but the nine teenagers who came out of here didn't have any special features a few months ago, after being invaded by the demon seed, all of them had inexplicable changes, they not only had Dao roots, but also had stronger learning ability.

Before the arrival of the other children with Daogen, this was not obvious, Zhang Lingsheng even thought that they were useless people with no future, but as time passed, the advantages of the young people in Yelin Town gradually revealed, even if they were the least hard-working among them, Xiaoshun Shen Tongyou, could be in the middle of more than a hundred children.

The young man in Yelin Town had never discussed this matter, but Xiaoqiu knew in his heart that his friends had similar doubts.

Xin Youtao saw that Mu Xingqiu's expression had changed slightly, his smile was even bigger, he walked a few steps up the fifth-level stone steps, turned around and said, "Especially you, you are the one who has been in direct contact with the Demon King. Tsk, climb the mountain the highest, practice the stick method the best, I heard that you still like to read recently, no wonder even the grandmaster values you, by the way, you also have a little daughter-in-law, unique. ”

Xiaoqiu suddenly jumped up several stone steps in a row, and suddenly got close to Xin Youtao.

Xin Youtao was frightened, his legs were weak and he almost sat on the ground, hurriedly turned around and ran out of more than a dozen stone steps before stopping, looking back, seeing Mu Xingqiu struggling to go up one level at a time, his mind finally calmed down, "You are very powerful, let's make a bet, I bet that you will not be able to walk 10,000 levels today, if you win, the dagger will belong to you, I will never want it, you lose, return the dagger to me, and you have to admit in public that you snatched it by dishonorable means." ”

In the woods of Yelin Town, Xin Youtao became a prisoner, Xiaoqiu took a dagger inlaid with rubies from him, in the Jinghu Village Pavilion, Xiaoqiu once took the initiative to return the dagger, Xin Youtao felt that he had no face and refused to accept it, and now he has to bet with the dagger again.

"Bet. Xiao Qiu spit out these two words, his internal breath fluctuated, and the original burning sensation only wrapped his whole body, but now it was flowing down his throat into his internal organs, and he had to stop climbing and readjust his internal breath.

By the time he came back, Xin Youtao had already turned the corner of the mountain and disappeared.

Prince Xijie climbed the mountain so easily, Xiaoqiu was only a little surprised at the beginning, and soon understood that Xin Youtao was using talismans to cheat again, and he had just received a large number of bags a few days ago, so he would naturally replenish the talismans that had been confiscated and destroyed before.

This is definitely not in accordance with the rules, but Xiaoqiu doesn't want to tell the truth, Meng Yuanhou is waiting at the top of the mountain, Xin Youtao always has to rely on his own strength to climb the last part of the road, Xiaoqiu feels that this coward can't even take a step in the end.

After more than 100 stone steps, Xiaoqiu was already sweating profusely, looking up, the peak was still far away, the extra road he walked today seemed to be all in vain, and a thought kept echoing in his mind: Meng Dujiao didn't say that he had to climb up today, and there would be a chance in the future, he would climb a little more every day, and he would always succeed in reaching the top.

The idea made sense, and on two occasions she even turned around, and finally forced herself to continue climbing the seemingly endless stone steps.

He had already agreed to make a bet with Xin Youtao that he had to win against him, and there was another voice in his heart reminding Xiaoqiu: It was the idea of climbing a few more stone steps tomorrow, and he had made very slow progress in the past for a while, and he had not reached the eighth thousandth stone step until today.

Cultivation is against the sky, and Xiaoqiu began to have a deeper feeling for this sentence.

After turning a few corners, Xin Youtao appeared again, looking down at the pursuers behind him with a smile, "Eight thousand nine hundred, it's still far away, Mu Xingqiu, I don't know how far I can go before dark, let's talk about it first, I won't wait if it's too late." ”

"It's dark until you don't have a place to win. Every word she spits out is torture, but Xiaoqiu has been able to skillfully adjust her internal breath, even when she speaks, she does not interrupt.

"Good. Xin Youtao sat on the stone steps, "I have to say thank you." ”

"Thanks for what?"

"You didn't talk nonsense about the talisman, that talkative little Taoist priest must have told you about the punishment of the precept department, right? You can keep secrets, you are a strict person. ”

Xiao Qiu only said to Fang Fang about the confiscation and destruction of the talisman by the Discipline Department, and the two never revealed it to the third party, not because they wanted to protect Xin Youtao's reputation, but they didn't want to talk about the shortcomings behind their backs.

"Hmph, you don't seem to have been taught a lesson. ”

"Huh. Xin Youtao smiled calmly, "You are still a subject of the Xijie Kingdom of the Holy Fu Dynasty, and you don't know anything about Fu Zong. The talisman is a good thing, no need for Daogen, and no need for Neidan, as long as a simple talisman is added to the body-" Xin Youtao raised his hand over his shoulder, pointing to his back, his talisman was there, "Ordinary people can also cast powerful spells." ”

Xin Youtao raised his head and looked at the depths of the clouds and mist, his expression was solemn as if he was meeting a god, "Fu Gong is the foundation of the dynasty, we human beings can occupy the most fertile land, and reproduce a lot, relying on it, so, don't talk about Fu Gong in a contemptuous tone, you can live until now, even your birth, it is its credit." ”

"You've forgotten about the Nine Great Paths. Xiaoqiu is still climbing step by step, getting closer and closer to Xin Youtao.

"How can you forget? In the matter of blocking the invasion of demons, the Nine Great Dao Sect does play a huge role, but the number of Taoist priests is too small, look, the dignified Pangshan Dao Sect only recruits more than a hundred disciples a year, nearly half of them can never condense into a pill, and the remaining half may be killed, may become a demon. Do you know how many demons there are in this world? millions, tens of millions! Only a talisman can equip a huge human army, and only such an army can protect the vast territory. ”

Xiaoqiu wanted to ask why "such an army" failed to protect Yelin Town, but he didn't want to show his feelings for his hometown and relatives in front of outsiders, so he asked, "Then you still want to come to Pangshan?"

Xin Youtao shrugged, "I'm a prince, I'll go wherever Xijie Kingdom needs me to go, you can't understand this kind of thing." ”

Xiao Qiu had no intention of knowing, he had already walked to Xin Youtao's side, and was about to pass by him, when a scream suddenly came from behind him.

Xin Youtao was stunned for a moment, "Someone actually caught up, Mu Xingqiu, you have to work hard, you really can't do it, just call the demon seed out." ”

Xiao Qiu didn't answer, because he felt that this scream was a little familiar, and there was only one person in the entire Pang Mountain, even if he broke his throat, it was still like a piece of candy in his mouth, so he no longer cared about the bet and the reward at the top of the mountain, and turned around and ran down the mountain.

"Hey, are you throwing in the towel?" Xin Youtao shouted from behind, "What about your demon seed? does it allow you to do this......"

Xiao Qiu jumped down a few stone steps with each step, and soon turned four or five corners, he ran so fast that if it weren't for the obvious damage of one stone step, he would probably have swept straight over.

"Is it Xiaoqiu?" a voice came from below the cliff, apparently hearing footsteps from above.

Xiaoqiu ran to the edge of the cliff and looked down, her heartbeat stopped suddenly, and she even forgot to adjust her internal breath until the feeling of burning her body was too strong, and she found her internal breath again.

Fang Fang squeezed into the cliff crack with one hand, and grabbed Xiao Qingtao tightly with the other, almost a foot away from where Xiao Qiu was standing.

"I'll take you up. Xiaoqiu immediately lay on the ground and reached out, but didn't have time to ask the reason why the two fell off the cliff.

"Brother Xiaoqiu. Xiao Qingtao's voice trembled, and there was timidity in her soft voice, sounding like a five or six-year-old doll.

Fang Fang didn't speak, just looked up at him.

Xiaoqiu tried to stretch his arm, but it was too far away for him to move downward, and in that case he would even fall himself.

"Oh my God, what's going on?" Xin Youtao also came down and stood on top of a dozen stone steps.

"Come and help, grab my legs. ”

Xin Youtao shook in place hesitantly, his face suddenly changed, and he pointed to the top of Xiaoqiu's head, "Be careful!"
