Chapter 528: Mountaineering
Chapter 528 Climbing
In the holy mountain, old and vigorous ancient trees are towering into the sky and clouds, and thick branches extend into all directions like dragons.
The lush branches and leaves are connected together, blocking the skylight and making the entire mountain seem dark and cold.
The path of sheep intestine is winding and twists, and the ancient trees on both sides are twisted like shadows of ghosts under the mottled time.
The vines as thick as water tanks crawled onto the narrow path like snakes, extremely tough, with a flash of green light, showing vigorous vitality.
When you first enter this place, if you don’t know the details and see the prosperous and vibrant scene of the grass and trees, you may really think that this is a sacred and clean place.
But this mountain is located in the Black Wind Cliff, and even the ancient vine tribe with strong backgrounds dare not enter easily. Cannon fodder that needs to be found to explore is not an ordinary place.
The surroundings are a bit quiet and terrifying. Although the energy of life is strong, it lacks a spiritual charm. It seems that there is no life in the huge mountains.
Neither the birds were heard, nor the roars of the animals, nor the traces of the ants and insects were seen. It seemed that even the breeze stopped here, so quiet that it was almost desperate.
When he came here, Ling Tian felt like he was in the Alaya space, as if he had come to the world in the painting, and could not feel anything except the scene, and his facial features seemed to be abolished.
The journey ahead was quite calm. Ling Tian and his group of people continued to move towards the depths of the holy mountain under the Black Wind Cliff. They basically encountered no abnormal situations and soon arrived at the hillside.
The Guteng tribe was very fond of entering the holy mountain this time. In case of precaution, Gu Yue brought dozens of soul cultivators from the tribe, all of whom were driving powerful beasts and at the front of the team.
The second head of the family flew into the sky with more than a dozen young leaders of the peak Nascent Soul from Black Wind Cliff, not only to prevent anyone from escaping, but also to investigate the situation in the distance.
Da Heitian took a group of people to the end of the team, responsible for the rear of the palace to prevent emergencies.
The three teams were all composed of top masters, surrounded Ling Tian and the others firmly, and there was no possibility of escaping.
They are not ready to let Ling Tian and others explore the way forward for the time being. The second half of the holy mountain is extremely dangerous, and this group of people is of great use to them.
According to some ancient books, the first half of the road and the second half of the road in this mountain are completely different.
The dividing point is a stone tablet called Broken Soul. After passing that stone tablet, the distance behind it is terrifying and there is a risk of death at any time.
Ling Tian and the others have not seen this stone tablet yet, but the time is almost at the dividing point.
At this time, Ling Tian's team obviously showed restlessness, and many people's eyes showed panic, their faces turned pale, and they became more and more panicked.
The path under your feet is like a deadly path. Every time you move forward, you are moving towards death. After being a stone tablet of the Soul Broken Stone, there will inevitably be many people who will die, which is naturally frightening.
Not long after, everyone came to the dividing point.
From a distance, I saw a huge stone tablet standing beside the path ahead, with two large blood-red characters written on it, like a dying person written in blood, making people feel a sense of sadness and despair.
"Soul-breaking...soul-breaking..."
An elder of the ancient treasure clan walked to the stone tablet and reached out to gently stroke the blood-red ancient characters on the stone tablet. A cold breath instantly surged around his whole body, as if it contained a huge despair, which made him tremble and quickly retracted his fingers.
Everyone saw this scene and their faces suddenly became paler, and even some bandits on Black Wind Cliff changed their faces faintly.
These bandits who have been robbing families for many years have been wandering on the line of life and death for many times. They have long seen through life and death, but after seeing this stone tablet, they are still uneasy and feel the smell of death.
The path broke down here, and the surrounding mountains were rising, but the view ahead became wider.
The bushy mountains were faintly shining with a dark luster, like pairs of demonic eyes staring at everyone, making people feel a little scary.
"Stay for one night first, and then climb the mountain tomorrow."
Gu Yue frowned and said.
Here, although his cultivation is the highest, it is the first time he has entered this holy mountain. He dare not act rashly before he is not sure enough.
There was a dead silence ahead, and there was still no sign of life. There was a faint strange black light flashing in the depths of the holy mountain, gloomy and cold, piercing into everyone's heart.
The surroundings are very dark, not much different from the night. There are sporadic light spots scattered between the mottled branches and leaves, bringing some light to this dead dark space, making people feel a little relieved.
It is certain that when night falls, the entire mountain range will inevitably be dark, and you can't see your fingers. That's the time for real danger.
Everyone obviously realized this, and they all began to gather in a place with a nervous mind.
After a stick of incense, the sky completely darkened, and the whole world instantly fell into boundless darkness.
Gu Yue took out a night pearl and hung it on the surrounding ancient trees to illuminate a large area, which was very dazzling in this quiet darkness.
The second leader and a group of bandit leaders were still flying in the sky. The strange beast under his crotch was extremely ferocious, covered with blue-black mane, his eyes were glowing red, and he looked around vigilantly like sparks in the darkness.
"idiot!"
Seeing this extremely stupid approach, Ling Tian frowned tightly.
"Dog thing, what did you just say?"
Gu Yue's murderous intent was revealed in her eyes. If Ling Tian had not been useful, he might have been going to kill him directly.
Ling Tian sneered and said, "This mountain is dark, but you have made this place bright as daylight. Wouldn't you completely expose yourself to the darkness? What's the difference between doing this and seeking death?"
Gu Yue was stunned. Ling Tian said something very reasonable. He didn't expect such a low-level problem.
His original intention was to use the light of the night pearl to illuminate the surroundings in case of danger at night.
After all, the cultivation of these people is blocked, and they cannot use their spiritual sense and cannot detect the dangers around them.
But now it seems that this approach is indeed a bit stupid. Their position is likely to have been exposed, and there may even be dangers that are approaching them.
Gu Yue calmly put away the Ye Mingzhu hanging on the tree. At the same time, he asked the second head and the others to fall from the sky, and all the strange beasts closed their eyes.
The others said nothing, with a look of fatigue on their faces. Although nothing happened along the way, this psychological panic made them even more tired.
After experiencing this incident, everyone became more alert and no longer had the desire to rest. They looked around vigilantly.
