296 Ladder to the Sky
Why not?
At least Su Mu couldn't think of any reason to convince himself to stay in this perverted Heavenly Spirit Realm, the demon beasts in this world are not equal to humans, the demon beasts in the Three Thousand Realms can be easily killed, and a deer here can bite and kill an Earth Spirit Sword Saint, which is really embarrassing.
And isn't it the whole meaning of the existence of a sword cultivator to keep climbing upwards?
Even if he loses in the end and is thrown from the heavenly palace, at least he has touched the highest sky, and at least he has stood at the top!
He doesn't want to give in to everything, and he will never give in, he will only choose to keep fighting, the Heaven Slaying Demon Babel Tower is someone else's road, and his road is to climb the ladder, and the cultivation on the rooftop is faster, why not?
From the words of the yellow-haired mentor, he was particularly concerned about the thing called the Golden Bean, and there was no doubt that it was the biggest competition in the Sky Capital.
In the days before the selection began, Su Mu was refining the ice talisman day and night, and exchanged the ice talisman for a lot of spirit swords in the spirit sword department, and others were willing to exchange with him, on the one hand, his name was at his peak, and on the other hand, his ice talisman power had been witnessed by tens of thousands of people, and he had become a sought-after item in the Alkane Wind Academy, and they all wanted to get one to try it, Su Mu also discovered this, so most of them were traded privately, if they passed through the academy, they would definitely not be able to sell at such a high price.
But he also kept a hand, and those ice talismans were infused with five-hit spiritual power, but they couldn't see it.
By the time the selection of Heavenly Soldiers began, it was already a few months later, and he had already raised a fairly good spirit sword, in fact, if he had enough time, he really wanted to transfer to the Spirit Sword Department. Use the materials there to refine a batch of spirit swords yourself. It's even more secure when you get to the top. But there was no time for him to squander, things were already here, and he couldn't wait ten years.
In the end, two people were admitted to the school.
The night before leaving, Su Mu sat on a tree branch, imagining the appearance of the ladder, could it really be a ladder, how long would it take to climb?
"Su Mu, you're going to leave and don't go to see us?"
Thinking about it. There were two girls under the tree, it was Cao Yingying and Huang Yiran.
The branch was just outside his house, and he lived on the second floor, so it wasn't very tall, and they could touch his feet with a slight jump.
Su Mu jumped down and said with a smile: "I don't like to say goodbye, I always feel that I will never see each other again." ”
Cao Yingying glanced at him and said, "That's better than you leaving without saying a word, right?"
"Then I'll say goodbye to you now, and I hope to see you sometime. ”
Huang Yiran walked over and said with a sad smile: "We will work hard." Ten years is neither short nor too long, maybe we will be able to climb the ladder in the next ten years. ”
Cao Yingying said: "I don't want to climb the ladder." If I choose, I will go to the Tower of Babel, that is where the strong should go, Su Mu, you wait, I will go to the Heavenly Palace sooner or later, don't be surprised to see me in the Heavenly Palace when the time comes. ”
"Of course not......"
……
In the middle of the night, the heartless girl of the priestess came, and as soon as they met, she said, "You must come back to see me often." ”
Su Mu smiled and said, "I will come back if I can come back." ”
Before leaving, he gave her some ice talismans, and she reluctantly looked at him a few times and left without looking back.
Some people are not good at saying goodbye, such as Su Mu, such as the seemingly heartless priestess, she cried as soon as she turned around, she wanted Su Mu to think that she was a heartless person, because only in this way would he not worry about her, he would not be at ease, she knew that she couldn't keep up with his footsteps, and all she could do was not to affect him.
Early the next morning, Huang Mu personally took Su Mu to a locked courtyard, a long time ago, Su Mu knew that there was such a courtyard, a huge college, only this courtyard was shrouded in a cloud of fog, and it reached the sky, this is undoubtedly a strange scene, why did a cloud fall from the sky and fall here, and it did not disperse for many years?
The bigger question is not this, isn't he about to leave today, why did Mentor Huang bring them here?
"This is the ladder. ”
Seeing the doubt in his eyes, Huang Hai turned around and smiled while unlocking the lock.
Su Mu glanced at the second place in the Three Academies League, both of them were confused, the Heavenly Soldiers were selected by the Divine Mansion in the face of all the academies, wasn't it true that everyone climbed the ladder together after everyone gathered? Why did only the two of them start?
Su Mu asked his doubts, and Huang Yan said: "The four major academies all have such a courtyard, which means that the four major academies have ladders at home, you just climb up, and you will naturally reach the capital city in the air." ”
opened the courtyard door, he led the way in front, and Su Mu and the others followed closely.
Then they saw a thick vine entangled in the mist, and for a moment many questions lingered in their minds, did this grow on the ground or fall from the sky?
"I wish you all the best of luck. ”
Huang Yan looked at Su Mu and said, "This may not be a farewell." ”
He only said this sentence, Su Mu was silent for a moment, smiled slightly, and did not answer.
The two of them began to climb, the vines were cold to the touch, and wet and lubricated, much more difficult than expected, and they didn't know how high the capital city in the air was, and when they looked up, they could see endlessly, and the fog was heavy, and they couldn't help but feel a little heavy in their hearts.
"Senior Brother Su, you are on top, if you stumble, I can still pick you up. ”
The second place said with a sincere smile.
Su Mu sneered in his heart, before he set off, you kid is playing with his heart, if I really fall down, the ghost believes that you will pick me up, but I just let me take the lead for you.
"This vine is so thick, why do we have to be together, you go to the other side. ”
The vines hugged by ten people can indeed choose a variety of angles, and Su Mu originally planned to climb side by side with him, but that sentence made him disgusted with this person, and naturally he didn't want to take care of each other with him anymore.
The second didn't dare to disobey, smiled honestly, and obediently went to the other side.
"What are you looking at? ”
Su Mu walked around half of his body and found that the guy was secretly watching the movement on his side from the other side, and shouted unhappily.
The second person hurriedly turned around and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Su, let's go together?"
Su Mu was a little angry, and said expressionlessly: "You go first, I'll watch here." ”
The second place hesitated for a moment, he didn't know much about the ladder, the most hateful thing is that he heard a lot of rumors a few days ago, saying that there will be birds in the middle of the ladder, it is difficult to move an inch, and the strong wind will not know when it will be enveloped, and there will be people bullying when it comes to it, and whoever goes up first will suffer...... These were made up by people who couldn't eat grapes, but he believed it.
"If you don't go, you'll never get on. ”
The yellow hair had already left, and Su Mu was no longer polite to this goods, and threatened coldly.
He didn't have the heart to embarrass him, who let this person hide the heart of a villain, at this time, of course, he would not be used to calculate, although he didn't know what he was calculating, but the more he didn't want to do anything, let him do it first.
"Senior Brother Su, don't be angry, I'll go up, I'll go up. ”
The second place was helpless and climbed up the vine.
It wasn't until his figure was a little hazy that Su Mu slowly moved away.
"Senior Brother Su, are you here, let's not get too far away, I think there is still a long way to go, everyone should take care of each other!"
The voice of the second place came from the air.
Su Mu ignored it and climbed slowly.
With their current skills, this vine is naturally not a problem, although it is slippery, but as long as you grasp it at once, it will not fall, but the difficulty is that this is a road that cannot be turned back, and I don't know how high, once there is something in mid-air, it is still quite dangerous.
The terrible thing is that after being scared for a day, there is still no shadow of the city on it, and it is said that such a city in the sky can be seen from afar, indicating that they are still far away.
"Senior Brother Su, have you seen the rooftop?"
The second place was shouted from below.
Su Mu pursed his lips angrily, this guy is really cunning, when did he run down? He has no intention of worrying about anything with him, and his resentment towards him is long gone, in such a helpless place, is it good or bad, good or bad, good or bad, it can be considered a companion.
He stopped in an alcove to rest for a moment, and the Alkane Wind Academy below had become a small courtyard the size of a palm, and he suddenly felt a little isolated and helpless.
His mood became heavy, and he didn't bow his head all the way, which was really negative, and then he decided not to look at it anymore, and climbed to the air city in one go!
"Senior Brother Su, why don't you speak? Are you still there? Don't climb so fast, wait for me!"
The second name didn't hear Su Mu reply a few times, and he was very nervous.
"Whatever you call, I'll be above you. ”
"Oh, that's fine, you wait for me, let's go together. ”
"You just come along, there's still a long way to go, and I don't have time to wait for you. ”
Su Mu continued to climb, and it was obvious that the vines were getting thinner and thinner, and by this time, they had become the diameter of five people embracing, and I don't know if this meant that they had climbed halfway.
After climbing for three days in a row, he knew that it was just wishful thinking, the vines here were only the thickness of the two of them, but there was still no city in the sky on it, and the fog was thicker, and he could often hear some sharp beast songs, but he couldn't see what birds were, this was even more worrying than the current altitude, and the beasts that could fly so high must not be easy to mess with, he was very tired now, even if the spiritual power was abundant, and the ice talisman also brought a lot, but there was undoubtedly no advantage in fighting here.
"Senior Brother Su, have you seen it?
The second yelled in horror.
"Where?"
Su Mu hurriedly asked.
If you encounter flying beasts here, it will undoubtedly make matters worse.
"Right down there me!"
The second shouted in a trembling voice.
"Don't make a move, maybe it's just passing by. ”
Su Mu hurriedly advised, for fear that he would take the initiative to attack, he didn't want to cause any trouble here. (To be continued......)
