The Wheel-Turning Master
Chapter 280 Mountaineering
It should be afternoon now.
The knife marks were a hundred feet deep. No matter the rocks, rivers, soil or trees, they were all gone. Only the vast chasm was left, like a natural moat.
The towering mountain was located on the endless knife marks, reaching into the clouds.
Apart from this, there was no scenery anywhere else, hidden in the haze.
Standing on the huge knife marks and looking up at Jiuding Mountain, the nine people in the group seemed as small as ants.
After a few breaths, everyone felt that the knife marks under their feet were different, as if they were extremely hot and cold to the bone.
The subtle but endless sense of destruction entered from the feet, penetrated the muscles and bones, lingered in the body, and rushed endlessly, as if to tear the whole into dust and annihilate between heaven and earth.
"Thick soil." A male cultivator took out a dark yellow flag, and in an instant, a protective shield was seen, enveloping everyone.
There was a thick yellow flow on the protective shield, which was a solid defense at first glance.
This person's name is He Bingde, and he is in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm.
Everyone was in the protection, and their hearts were calm. However, the endless destructive intention did not weaken at all, and the protective barrier could not stop it at all!
"The remaining power of the great power, even if thousands of years have passed, is still not something we can look up to." He Bingde smiled bitterly and put away the flag, "It's ridiculous that I am trying to stop a chariot with my arms and an ant trying to shake a tree."
He looked at Ying Wangtian with a sigh, and everyone looked over.
"What an ant trying to shake a tree!" Ying Wangtian frowned displeased, "When you see a high mountain, you should have the heart to climb to the top! Instead of belittling yourself!"
"Brother, you are right!" He Bingde bowed to learn.
Ying Wangtian did not say more, and flew up first.
Everyone followed immediately.
But after flying in the air for more than ten feet, he felt that the destructive intention was even stronger, and it was so strong that he couldn't breathe. It seemed that countless fine needles had drilled into his body, swallowing all his flesh and blood into nothingness. And he felt that it was extremely difficult to carry a huge rock.
Ying Wangtian seemed to be born with the ability to fly in the air, and he could still hold on, but the others could no longer keep up.
There was no choice, and they fell to the foot of the mountain again.
Sure enough, as soon as they touched Jiuding Mountain, they felt that the sense of destruction had dissipated a lot, and they felt relieved.
This mountain was brought down by the Wuxiang Daoist Master to suppress the knife, and it seemed that it really had a defensive effect.
But this high mountain also had a heavy feeling. Walking at the foot of the mountain, it felt that the steps were a hundred times more difficult than usual, as if carrying the mountains and rivers on their backs.
Moreover, the remaining power of the knife was still there, and the sense of destruction was still lingering in the bodies of the people.
"You can't see the end of the mountain, but looking at the appearance here, it should be Jiuding Mountain without a doubt." Yin Yan sighed.
"I heard that Jiuding Mountain is about a hundred miles in circumference and three thousand feet high. If you want to climb to the top, it will be extremely difficult." Mu Zhen also looked up to the mountains, "Perhaps, this is the real test."
"That's why you can only see the world when you reach the top!" Ying Wangtian laughed.
"Sister," Lin Bai approached Li Wusheng and asked curiously, "What we saw just now should be the origin of the formation of Jiuding Mountain. I wonder if your sect has ever recorded when this sword intent was completely eliminated?"
"Jiuzhe Mountain has experienced the rise and fall of many sects. Later, my Jiuding Sect established itself here and became powerful." Li Wusheng recalled briefly and continued, "But I did hear that Jiuzhe Mountain was a barren land before. It was not until the river washed it for a long time that it became prosperous again."
She pointed to the top of the mountain and said, "And the top of that mountain is the blessed land of my sect, known as Jiuhe Blessed Land."
The Jiuhe Blessed Land on the top of the mountain is not inferior to the Xianqiao Blessed Land on Qiaoshan. The person who lives there is the master of Jiuzhe Mountain, Lihuo Taoist.
Lin Bai couldn't help but look at it for a while, holding the gourd on his waist, and said nothing.
Everyone paused for a while, knowing that the road ahead would be difficult, but the rewards would be great, so they took the elixir, checked themselves, and communicated with Zongheng.
After another half an hour, seeing the sunset in the sky, Ying Wangtian got up, followed by a man and a woman.
The man was He Bingde, and the woman was Bi Huanqiu.
Ying Wangtian didn't say much, and rushed into the sky, and He Bingde and Bi Huanqiu followed immediately.
"Brother, wait for me!" Du Changying saw this and hurried to catch up.
Three in front and one behind, flying more than a hundred feet in the air seemed to be unable to bear it, and fell into the mountains and forests one after another, and disappeared.
According to Li Wusheng, Jiuding Mountain is extremely wide and extremely steep. There are a total of nine mountain climbing roads, most of which are zigzag-shaped and spiral upward. And most of them are mountain paths, and there are no steps.
Moreover, the paths in the mountains were opened up many years ago, and now few people walk on them.
In the past, people who went to the top of the mountain to pay homage to the Taoist Lihuo mostly flew up, and could only climb up after the Taoist Lihuo allowed them to do so.
Seeing that Ying Wangtian and the other four had left, Yin Yan smiled, bowed to Lin Bai and the others, and said, "I will explore the way for you first."
After saying the polite words, he also soared into the sky.
For a while, only Lin Bai, Mu Zhen, Mo Yingcheng and Li Wusheng were left on the field.
"Neither of us is good at fighting, and her injuries have not healed yet, so you two can go ahead." Mo Yingcheng did not say anything to let Lin Mu and the others take care of her.
Lin Bai and Mu Zhen looked at each other, nodded slightly, and then stepped up.
The mountain is three thousand feet high, and the mountain climbing road is several times higher than this. Every step he took, he felt his body getting heavier.
Although the intention of destruction has been eliminated, it still lingers and runs rampant in the body, and it cannot be eliminated.
"In this way, there will be more sword intentions in the body, and the body will become heavier. Under the internal and external pressure, I am afraid that every step forward will be extremely difficult. How can I reach the top?" Mu Zhen and Lin Bai walked side by side. They did not fly in the air, but stepped on the rocks and green grass.
"What Senior Brother Ying said just now is very reasonable. It is so difficult for us to pursue the great road." Lin Bai explained with a smile, "If you have a positive heart, what does the physical suffering mean?"
When Mu Zhen heard this, she turned her head slightly to look at Lin Bai, knowing that he still had not forgotten the fear and helplessness he felt when he was bent into armor in his ordinary life.
But precisely because of this, now that the grudge has been settled, I feel more open-minded.
"That's why I'm willing to sleep with you." Mu Zhen smiled slightly, "I haven't experienced too many hardships, and I don't always listen to irritating words. If there is anything inappropriate in the future, you have to remind me."
"Okay." Lin Bai agreed with a smile.
As he continued to walk forward, Lin Bai took the opportunity to inquire: "Who is the person who slashed this sword? It seems to be as good as Taoist Wuxiang."
"It's not even close." Mu Zhen shook his head with a smile and said softly: "If no one restrains Taoist Wuxiang, I'm afraid this sword won't be able to be used."
She stopped and looked at the knife marks thousands of miles down the mountain, and then said: "I heard that this knife was cut out after many years of cultivation, a lot of life energy, and a lot of effort. But it can't be used again, and maybe it needs to be cultivated again." Long Blade.”
"Who is this person?" Lin Bai was too curious.
"Those who are qualified to take action against the Taoist Master are naturally the Taoist Master." Mu Zhen smiled slightly, looked at Lin Bai, couldn't help but reached out and brushed his face, and asked: "Don't worry, the person in this world who has received the favor of the Wuxiang Taoist Master , I don’t know how many people have inherited it, but they can’t find it on your head.”
Lin Bai saw that she still didn't mention the name of the Taoist master and asked no more questions. Anyway, Sister Zhen is a reliable person, so of course she has a reason not to say anything.
However, it can be regarded as knowing that Master Wuxiang was indeed surrounded and killed. There are at least two people. One person is holding them back, which is probably the main force. The other person is using the sword, which is probably a sneak attack.
The two chatted casually and continued climbing the mountain road.
Lin Bai's Hunyuan body has been tempered for a long time. Although he can't stop the strange sword intention from entering his body, he has the foundation of the twelfth revolution of Hunyuan. His flesh and blood are tough and he is not afraid of any intention of destruction.
Moreover, the circulation of the five elements in the body is already slowly passing away, and it can be suppressed as much as possible.
Step by step, the feeling of heaviness in the body becomes stronger and stronger.
"Tempering the body has accomplished meritorious deeds."
Lin Bai still felt a little relaxed, thinking that he would be done with it for now and then go back and practice the body tempering method.
According to what the fox said, after reaching the golden elixir realm, the tempered body should rotate through the five elements and one attribute for a hundred years. Of course, it is much simpler on the stone plate, just one year.
"If it happens twelve more times..."
Lin Bai murmured in his heart for a long time, thinking of Girl Jiang for no reason. In the past, she had to try out the Five Elements Tempering Body every time...
Mu Zhen seems to have also practiced the body tempering method. Judging from his aura and expression, there is no serious problem.
After walking for a while, Mu Zhen took out two jade pendants, tied them on Lin Bai's wrists, and asked Lin Bai to tie them for her.
With the golden elixir body, she can accomplish anything with just a flick of her spiritual consciousness, but it takes a lot of work for her.
Since their reunion, Lin Bai has discovered that Sister Zhen is slightly different from other golden elixirs. She loves craft work and likes to do it herself.
Probably this is also related to the fact that she spent some time in the mortal world.
Wearing jade on your wrist, you can only feel the calming effect, and the wounds in your body that were devastated by the knife will heal faster.
"This is the mother-child jade pendant, which has the effect of nourishing the body and calming the mind. The two are connected and can sense each other. If one is seriously injured, the jade pendant of the other will be dim. If the body dies, both will break into powder." Mu Zhen Explain utility.
Soon it was night, and the stars were shining brightly in the sky.
There was no Ying Wangtian and others on the top, and no Mo and Li on the bottom to catch up.
Lin Bai and Mu Zhen were alone in the mountains, but they didn't feel lonely.
The two stopped and took a short rest.
From dusk to late night, for more than two hours, the two of them walked along the mountain road crookedly, climbing for about five or six miles, but if they looked from top to bottom, they would only have climbed three to four hundred feet.
"Do you still want to kill that Ying Wangtian?" Lin Bai sat down on a rock, swallowed a rejuvenating pill, and sent a message to Sister Zhen.
"What do you think?" Seeing Lin Bai's solemnity, Mu Zhen asked.
"When I gave him the elixir before, I compared it carefully. In fact, he suffered more serious injuries than us." Lin Bai cautiously only transmitted his voice.
"You mean..." Mu Zhen was so smart that he immediately noticed something unusual. "When he saw the light of the sword, he actually had the intention to test the sword with his own body, and he was a little more susceptible to the sword's intention than us. Just to experience a little more of the great sword intention that destroys heaven and earth? "
"At that time, when the sword light came out, everything felt like it was heading towards the blade to meet death." Lin Bai responded with a smile, "That's why, if he is not as you just guessed, he is a person with a weak character, or even Yu is inferior to Du Changying and others."
"The disciples of the Lord of Jiuzhe Mountain can be fools, have poor understanding, or have low talents. How can there be people with insufficient character?" Mu Zhen obviously admitted Lin Bai's judgment.
"The other thing is," Lin Bai smiled again, "when he slapped the ground with his palm, most of his injuries were scattered into the mountains and rocks, and he immediately improved."
Lin Bai pointed to the distance and continued: "In the old Wordless Secret Realm, I once saw Lu Qingyin repeatedly using the forbidden method, which was the art of transformation. This kind of person is always cruel to others, and even more cruel to himself. !”
"Forbidden secret techniques can harm others and yourself." Mu Zhen frowned slightly, seeming to find it a little tricky, so she asked, "Are you afraid?"
"This person has a good nature, a high level of Taoism, and a sincere heart towards the Tao." Lin Bai patted the gourd and said in his voice: "He is straightforward in his temperament and does not hide his likes and dislikes."
Lin Bai grabbed Sister Zhen's hand and said with a smile: "Is it possible that he actually doesn't have good intentions? We are ready to kill him, but he has also thought about getting rid of you and me?"
Having said this, Lin Bai continued to send a message, "You need to know that you, Brother Mo and I are all outsiders, but the three of us are among the nine, and there is also Li Wusheng who is close to us. In the previous trial, You are the second to come out, before him, and after him is me. Anyone who is not a fool should know that you and I are extraordinary, and he is not like an upright person. Brother Mo showed his kindness, but he didn’t like it either.”
"..." Mu Zhen closed her eyes and pinched her fingers in silence. After a while, she opened her eyes and looked at Lin Bai, saying, "No matter how many secrets he has, if you and I join forces, don't say it's him." Going up to He Bingde and Bi Huanqiu is also in vain."
"..." Lin Bai was stunned for a moment. He had been sleeping with Sister Zhen a lot these days. Therefore, although the two of them had never done anything, they had known each other and knew that Sister Zhen was also a person who was well versed in various arts.
Apart from the fact that I have seen the Purple Qi Escape Technique in the past, I don't know whether Sister Zhen is good at fighting, whether she is good at defense, good at attack, or is prepared for both offense and defense.
Of course, Mu Zhen didn't know much about Lin Bai's current capabilities.
But looking at it now, Sister Zhen was so loud that she really didn't pay attention to the disciple of the Lord of Jiuzhe Mountain. It just made her frown.
Lin Bai knew that Sister Zhen did not like to brag like Miaomiao. She must have great abilities and a lot of back-ups, or even a secret treasure given by the ancestor of the family.
"I went on a long trip, and Aunt Gu didn't give me anything..." Lin Bai couldn't help but think of her ease and indifference when she took out a bunch of talismans when she left Jinli Island and before she was separated from Sister Zhen.
In contrast, I couldn't help but feel cold, thinking about going back and stirring up the pool. Lin Bai looked at Sister Zhen and chirped.
"Although I am traveling this time, I also have a mission. I don't have many things with me, but I use them in many places." Mu Zhen saw Lin Bai hesitantly leaning towards her, so she grimaced. He looked like he was searching.
"Sister Zhen, it's not my fault." Lin Bai sighed bitterly, "You know, although Patriarch Gu supports me, I am an outsider after all. The fox has always disliked me, and always ridiculed me when we met. Don't look at me so early. Jie Dan may look glamorous on the outside, but he is actually very miserable on the inside!”
Mu Zhen said nothing, but looked at Lin Bai's wrist with a smile.
"This is the last time I sacrificed my life for the Gu family. I begged so many times before I got a life-saving thing." Lin Bai said confidently.
"When it's done, I'll give you a good thing." Mu Zhen was so tempered by Lin Bai that she finally recognized him. He added: "You need to do your best. You need to know that there are nine people here, except for one, there will be one less person to grab the treasure on the top of the mountain."
"I am willing to die for Sister Zhen!" Lin Bai agreed immediately.
The two murmured, discussed for a long time, and made many plans before continuing to climb in the dark.
When daybreak came, I saw only green rocks and tangled trees, but still no trace of human beings.
Looking down, Mo and Li were nowhere to be seen. They must have been hidden among the forest rocks.
At this time, we were already more than a thousand feet away from the endless knife marks at the bottom of the mountain, but we could see an even more vast outline.
