Chapter 54 Up the Mountain
Xie Xun reluctantly walked around the village, and the responses he got were all the same, this time he was mentally prepared, and his disappointment was much weaker. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
He had no choice but to go up the mountain as planned.
When they heard that he was going up the mountain, the villagers also arranged a guide for him very enthusiastically, saying that he was an old hunter who often went up the mountain.
But when he heard that Xie Xun was going to the top of the mountain, the old hunter had to apologize, and advised Xie Xun to retreat despite the difficulties: "The peaks of the mountains are huge glaciers, covered with snow, very cold, and the road is difficult to walk. ”
Xie Xun thanked them for their kindness and embarked on his journey.
The Western Regions is not a complete desert as Xie Xun imagined before, especially under this snow-capped mountain, it is covered by quite dense vegetation, and there are many wild beasts in the forest.
At first, the trail was easy to walk, but the further you go, the steeper and more difficult it becomes.
Of course, these are nothing to Xie Xun, he is not an ordinary mountain hunter, but the world's top martial arts master, if he is stumped by this forest mountain road, it will be a big joke.
Xie Xun's foot strength is very fast, almost not much slower than on the flat ground, and the breathlessness that ordinary people often have when they reach the high mountains does not appear on him, he breathes as usual, and he still has a long breath.
After climbing for most of the day, the sun was already in the west, the sky was gradually graying, and the woods Xie Xun encountered were gradually thinning, almost all of them were coniferous forests.
It looks like I've climbed more than half of the way to the glacier.
Then came the hardest part of the journey, and he chose the wrong time to go up the mountain and spend the night in the coldest place in the coldest place, which even a seasoned old hunter could not have imagined.
The highest place that the best hunter in the village down the hill had ever visited was probably this area, and after that, he did not dare to go up.
This is the difference between why they are just hunters and Xie Xun is a cultivator.
Isn't it just to do what ordinary people can't do?
Although this is not Xie Xun's purpose, it does not prevent him from doing such a thing.
Xie Xun continued upward, and the trees gradually thinned out, replaced by snow-capped and eternal glaciers.
"If it's daytime, or if there's a moon tonight, it's a magnificent sight. Xie Xun thought with regret.
Although his vision allows him to see clearly in the dark, it can't really give him the feeling of daytime, and in terms of beauty, it is obviously more than a step behind.
The wind was very cold at night, but it was not so cold that Xie Xun couldn't stand it, of course, for the sake of insurance, he still took out the jade pendant that Li Yunmiao gave him.
In fact, he found that this jade pendant had many effects, and it was also very useful, not at all as he had originally thought, but only for the Void Burning Evil Points under the river.
This is a treasure, it can consume a very small amount of mana to form a most suitable environment for the body to survive around itself, if the environment is too hot, it will cool down, if the environment is too cold, it can heat up, this jade pendant has helped Xie Xun several times.
Holding the jade pendant in his hand and inputting mana, Xie Xun instantly felt his body relax, in the previous environment, even if he could move without fear with his excellent physical fitness, it was contrary to his instinct as a human being.
"I should have taken this jade out earlier, and it seems that there is no need to take it back later. "There was a good discovery, which made Xie Xun feel comfortable.
Maybe that's a sign that the trip will end well.
Xie Xun found a shelter from the wind, sat down cross-legged, and used cultivation to recover his spirit.
Although there was no moon this night, Xie Xun's cultivation speed was much faster than usual, which made him happy again.
"It seems that the cultivation really has to go to the blessed land of Immortal Mountain, away from the worldly red dust. "This mountain makes it difficult for ordinary people to breathe, but for cultivators, it is a good place to cultivate.
The aura here is much richer than that at the foot of the mountain.
In this way, after a night, Xie Xun actually broke through a trick again and became a master of the eight tricks, and then he was able to penetrate a trick, Xie Xun was a great consummation of the knot, and he had the foundation of truly sensing the world.
Xie Xun had just broken through the realm, refreshed, and his steps were brisk, and he embarked on the journey again.
The sky gradually brightened, and the scenery on the snow-capped mountain was also presented in front of Xie Xun.
It's just that although the scenery is beautiful, the road is becoming more and more difficult, and the snow is slippery, even with Xie Xun's light skills, he has to deal with it carefully.
There are also places full of cliffs, and there is no way to do it, so Xie Xun has to climb it with both hands.
The ice peaks that have been condensed for thousands of years are really cold to the bone, Xie Xun has already used the true qi to protect his body, and his hands are still frozen and green.
"It seems that if we go on like this, we can only depend on chance, there are so many peaks on this Qilian Mountain, do I have to climb them again?" Standing on top of the high mountain, looking at the ice peaks towering into the sky in the distance, Xie Xun once again realized the seriousness of the problem.
Originally, he saw all the mountains at the bottom of the mountain, but when he really went up the mountain, he found that there were countless mountains, and if he climbed them all, he didn't know how much time it would take.
What's more, there are dozens of mountains in the Qilian Mountains, which are distributed within dozens of miles around Yumen.
"No matter, let's finish climbing these mountains first, they all say that nine is the extreme, then I will randomly choose nine mountains, if I haven't found it in the end, then first while cultivating by myself, while looking for the location of the Immortal Cultivation Sect, at least for now, I already know a Humming Valley, follow them, maybe there are still clues." ”
In this way, Xie Xun went up and down, and climbed two more peaks on this mountain.
Among them, he also encountered a blizzard, which was really dangerous, but fortunately, he felt the movement of the aura in time, and first hid in a sheltered place, even so, he was almost buried alive by the wind and snow - this was fortunate to be helped by the jade pendant, although it also consumed most of Xie Xun's mana.
When he was on the third peak, Xie Xun found an unusual place, where there was a small dark stone.
You must know that the wind and snow on this mountain blow people effortlessly, but this small stone can enjoy the sun and rain on it safely. Wind and snow, to say that there is no difference, Xie Xun will never believe it.
"Looks like I've met a treasure. Xie Xun was overjoyed, he was able to meet Bao, and his hard work and pain were not completely in vain.
He released his thoughts and prepared to test the stone, but as soon as he touched the stone, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, and it disappeared.
In this regard, Xie Xun was not surprised, there was such an abnormality, it must be a foreign body.
