Chapter 227 Steps

Danding Mountain is more than 500 feet tall, which is even nearly half higher than the Yuemo Peak of Zhiyuemo Mountain. As for the true size of Danding Mountain, it can accommodate three volcanic mountains just by catching the edge and you can see how big it is.

To be honest, it is not an exaggeration to call Danding Mountain the pillar of heaven and earth, because from a distance, in the sky without clouds, the entire Danding Mountain is indeed like a pillar of heaven connecting the heavens of the nine states. If the three volcanic smoke pillars soar into the sky, the name of this pillar of heaven can be said to be a real reputation.

The two entrances in the north and south of Danding Mountain are located about halfway up the mountain of Danding Mountain, so each entrance is located at a magnificent bluestone step that is more than ten feet wide. According to the classics of Dandu Gate, this step was completely excavated on the original mountain of Danding Mountain. Therefore, the entire 99,999-level stairs are completely integrated with the mountain of Danding Mountain. In addition, the special techniques used during the excavation and a large number of runes spread over the stone steps, everyone standing under the steps can feel a magnificent momentum that shocks the soul. Therefore, when Leng Yun was really standing under this step, he was deeply shocked by the deep feeling created by the steps for nearly a quarter of an hour. Finally, after an accidental collision of a person behind him, he came to his senses from the momentum of heaven and earth created by this mountain step.

The steps at the two entrances of Danding Mountain are both 99,999. This metaphor refers to the meaning of being only one step away from the sky. However, the Danding Mountain is obviously no longer worthy of this meaning. Even though there are still crowds of people on the steps, while walking, everything in front of Leng Yun can't help but give Leng Yun a feeling of being in the mountains of the west, especially the disciples of the Danding School who walked by from time to time, wearing the silver-white clothes unique to the Danding School.

The anxiety on their faces always seemed to make people feel a sense of restlessness, and this restlessness on the face of a disciple of the Danding Sect, the third largest sect in Rongzhou, always made Leng Yun feel a little imaginative.

After walking through all the 99,999 steps, these 99,999 steps cannot be faked, because the steps are attached with the prohibitions left by the great monks who built Danding Mountain back then. Each level must be stepped over, otherwise it will fall into the prohibitions set up on the steps. As for the flying of the imperial weapon, it is even more a joke. According to the Dandu Sect’s classics, as long as it exceeds three feet above the ground, it will be torn to pieces by the bans left by the ancient monks more than 100,000 years ago. Therefore, these 99,999 steps are also the real first line of defense in front of Danding Mountain.

After walking through the 99,999 steps, Leng Yun finally appeared in front of an oval cave entrance with a height of more than 30 feet wide. The entire cave entrance looked simple and unreal, and there were even no common runes on the steps around it. However, if you really underestimate him, it would definitely cause a catastrophe. According to the classics in the Dandu Sect, this cave entrance can be converted into a small moving array at any time. Anyone who rushes into this small moving array will pass into the fire hell in the center of the Yanhu Lake at the bottom of Danding Mountain, and it is also the hottest and most dangerous place in the entire Danding Sect. It is said that it is the place used by the Danding Sect to detain important prisoners.

It can be said that no one who entered this hell was able to come out alive, because the only entry and exit passage there was no one who could pass through tens of thousands of years ago, because according to the design of the hell when it was built, only cultivation levels above the tribulation period can safely pass through the underground passage in the rock lake.

There were no inspection personnel in the Danding Sect before the entrance. After all, this place was just the real entrance to Danding Mountain. When entering through this passage, it was only the hinterland of Danding Mountain. It was hundreds of feet away from the real mountain gate of Danding Sect. These hundreds of feet were like a natural barrier under the management of Danding Sect for tens of thousands of years. It was impossible for ordinary people to truly enter.

Then, Leng Yun ran hundreds of miles in the passage and finally walked into a plain with a red pool. This is the real Danding Plain, which is the Danding Plain, and the red pool is commonly known as Danding Lake.

The entire Danding Plain is more than 500 miles in radius, and is surrounded by Danding Mountain. If the mountain is not steep, the area is still slightly larger. Here is the real Danding Mountain of the Danding School.

Just by the red Danding Lake, there are several seemingly messy but in fact mysterious Lingsanfang City. In addition, in the distance, near one side of the mountain, there is a small town with a radius of dozens of miles.

As for the top of the head, it was completely shrouded in a light red fog, leaving only a blank area in the center, and the light in the sky was shining, which also made the entire Danding Mountain red and beautiful everywhere.

However, if someone despises this pink and the light red fog, it will definitely be gone, because this pink and the light red fog is simply part of a huge mountain protection array. The builder of this array is the last several ascending cultivators of the Elixir Sect back then. From this, you can imagine how powerful this array is.

Along the way, the entire Danding Mountain gave Leng Yun a feeling that it was both strange and familiar, but there was one feeling that was real, that is, every grass and tree here, and every mountain and water seemed to have been engraved in Leng Yun's memory, so that Leng Yun was a little confused after walking along the way if he had been in his previous life.

Although there are crowds of people at the entrance of Danding Mountain, there are not many people who actually live in Danding Mountain. Therefore, Leng Yun quickly found a place to stay in one of the markets, a unique courtyard with an alchemy room and an underground fire eye.

In addition to the various large and small medicine mountains outside the mountain, the most attractive thing is naturally the underground fire eyes that can be seen everywhere in Danding Mountain. This underground fire eyes are the best fire for alchemy and weapon refining. Therefore, every year, a large number of external monks will enter Danding Mountain to buy medicine and refine pills, which has created the largest source of wealth in Danding Mountain.

Therefore, in the markets in Danding Mountain, in addition to those shops, there are more small houses built with small areas, unique families, and special materials. Speaking of which, the reason why the Dandu Sect was driven out of Danding Mountain was caused by these small houses. Although Leng Yun did not understand very well, one of the reasons seemed to be because the leader of the Danding Sect, that is, the leader of the Dandu Sect, wanted to regain all the fire eyes distributed in Danding Mountain.

Of course, there was only the Dandu Sect back then, but it was precisely because of this that the Dandu Sect officially stood against the major forces of the Danding Sect and eventually ended up being driven out of Danding Mountain.

After taking over the owner, a hot red bronze medal from a foundation-building cultivator who looked extraordinary but was only over thirty years old. Leng Yun handed the rent for 500 medium-grade spirit stones in a month to the other party. The other party took the 500 medium-grade spirit stones handed over by Leng Yun, and his face couldn't help but show a hint of joy. In recent years, because the Golden Snake has been flowing around Danding Mountain, there have been fewer and fewer foreign monks from Danding Mountain to refine alchemy from Danding Mountain. Even though such a small alchemy room in Danding Mountain is not empty, it is at least half empty. This is something that was unimaginable in the past. At that time, Danding Mountain wanted to get a alchemy room at least had to wait for about half a year. Or it was just a high price to sublet it from other monks who rented the alchemy room.

After handing over 500 medium-grade spirit stones, Leng Yun couldn't help but sigh that the house in Danding Mountain is really valuable. Just a small house of several feet in size, the rent for a year will be 500 medium-grade spirit stones. And according to the owner, this is because the business is not now, otherwise the value will be higher, and it is not surprising that it will be several times higher.

"Fellow Daoist Leng, then I won't disturb you anymore. I wish you success in the alchemy furnace!"

Cultivators are also human beings, especially those who refine alchemy. Everyone likes to hear a few happy words before turning on the furnace and refining the alchemy. After all, if the alchemy fails, the loss will be really great.

Although Leng Yun was not worried about losing money in the failure to refine the alchemy, he still smiled and bowed, and replied: "Then let's follow the auspicious words of fellow Taoist Sun."

The owner of the house Leng Yun had inquired before searching. It is said that his ancestors were an elder in the Danding Sect. Although he did not become a big family in the end, it was because the Sun family had an elder in the Nascent Soul stage that he left this fire eye for his descendants. The owner in front of him was the last blood descendant of the Sun family now.

The owner of the house surnamed Sun smiled and replied with a bow, but just as he wanted to leave, Leng Yun suddenly asked, "Fellow Daoist Sun, this is my first time to come to Danding Mountain, so I want to ask the fellow Taoist about the situation in Danding Mountain. I don't know if I have time to give some advice."

The reason why Leng Yun chose to rent the owner of the Sun surname is that the owner of the Sun surname is that the owner of the Sun surname is simple background and does not have the strong background of ordinary owners of the Fire Eyes. This is not much in Danding Mountain, because most of the Fire Eyes in Danding Mountain are actually owned by some powerful families in the Danding School. This may be another reason why the Dandu Sect was angry at that time.

When the owner of the house surnamed Sun was stunned when he heard this, he then said happily: "This is absolutely fine. I have grown up in Danding Mountain since I was a child. It can be said that there is no place in Danding Mountain that I am not familiar with."

Speaking of this, the owner of the house surnamed Sun paused and then continued: "Does Leng want to go out to purchase alchemy materials?"

Leng Yunwei naturally rented a fire eye after spending a lot of money to refine an alchemy. This is not only a cover for his current identity, but also what he urgently needs. During this period, he actually bought several pill recipes for demon beast spirit pills in Wanzhou Mountain. In addition, most of the pills he had refined before were eaten by Xiao Hei and Xiaoqing, so a batch must be replenished as soon as possible.

Of course, the heavier thing is Leng Yun’s plan to refine some new elixirs, some for sale for exchange for spirit stones, and some for themselves who need it recently. After all, Leng Yun only goes out but doesn’t go in during this period of time. It is obviously something Leng Yun doesn’t want to see.

The owner of the house surnamed Sun looked at Xiaoqing, Xiaohei, and Leng Yun who were lying on Leng Yun's left and right shoulders and then Leng Yun took the sign of the disciples of Wanshou Mountain after entering Danding Mountain. Therefore, the owner of the house surnamed Sun had long believed that Leng Yun was a disciple of Wanshou Mountain.

"But our Danding Sect doesn't have many monsters selling inner elixirs."

Most of the main medicines of the demon beast spirit pill are the demon beast inner pills, so Leng Yun naturally understood the meaning of the other party’s words about the owner Sun’s house.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Sun, I have already prepared the inner alchemy items. Fellow Daoist just needs to take me to some cheap places selling spiritual medicines to see."

When the house surnamed Sun seemed to be relieved when he heard this, he replied with a smile: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Leng, I know that there are several hidden trading venues, and the prices of materials there are at least 20% cheaper than those in the market."

After hearing this, Leng Yun smiled slightly. Leng Yun's understanding of everything about the Danding Sect naturally comes from the classics of the Dandu Sect. According to the classics of the Danding Sect, all the medicine-selling income of the Danding Sect in the Danding Sect must be drawn 30% of the Danding Sect's income from selling medicines in the Danding Sect. Therefore, the Danding Sect gave birth to a large number of black markets.

Of course, there are no countermeasures for this, but the freezing of three feet is not a day long. This situation has been around for a long time in the Danding Sect. Even when the strongest Dandu Sect was controlled by the strongest Dandu Sect, it has never been eliminated. Therefore, the situation in the black market has been tenaciously continued.

After hearing this, Leng Yun couldn't help but smile, 20% cheaper, which was not a small amount of money, especially when he needed to purchase large quantities, or even buy some precious materials controlled by Danding Sect.

“Is that place safe?”

The achievements of the Danding School are like taxes between mortal countries. If tax evasion is naturally not allowed, the Danding School will not allow it. Therefore, safety has always been the most important thing in a black market.

When the owner of the house surnamed Sun heard this, he slapped his chest and said, "Fellow Daoist Leng, don't worry, the place I will take you to ensure safety."

Speaking of this, the owner of the house surnamed Sun was obviously beaten up, and then continued helplessly: "Recently, due to the reason of the Golden Snake, most of the people in the Punishment Hall have been sent outside the mountain, so the black market is not as tight as before."

Master Jinser? Finally heard the news about Master Jinser. Leng Yun couldn't help but ask casually, "Fellow Daoist Sun, do you think Master Jinser will rush into here?"

When the owner of the house surnamed Sun heard this, he shook his head and replied: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Leng, the Dandu Sect is also a branch of our Danding Sect. According to the past situation, the masters of the Dandu Sect will only target the elders above. As for us ordinary disciples, as long as we don't provoke them on their own, they will generally not hurt us. As for these markets, in short, dozens of Dandu Sect masters who rushed into Danding Mountain have no precedent for slaughtering in the market over the years."
