Chapter five hundred and twentieth: I can stand it!
Time passed quickly, and when the final six months expired, only nine people in the cave hall, including Zhou Yang and Jiang Fengxian, successfully passed the three tests.
More than 20 people entered the "Holy Infant Valley", but in the end only nine people were able to pass three levels in a row to get here. The elimination rate was more than half, and the difficulty was not easy.
You must know that the monks who dare to come to the "Holy Infant Valley" to seek for the "Holy Infant Fruit" are not ordinary people.
Except for Zhou Yang and Jiang Fengxian, the rest of the monks with the lowest cultivation levels all have the middle stage of the golden elixir. Most of the monks have the cultivation level of the late golden elixir. There are even five golden elixirs including Master Black Eagle.
Ninth level monk.
But now, only nine people can stand here. Among them, there are five ninth-level golden elixir monks, and only three of them have successfully passed the third level.
"The fact that the nine of you have been able to get here through the previous three levels shows that you are superior in terms of strength, understanding and mental state. In other words, the success rate of transforming elixirs and forming babies is higher than those of mediocre people.
Produce a lot.”
"But there are only five [Holy Infant Fruits] this time, which means that four of you still need to eliminate them!"
"Of course, if someone is willing to abstain now, I can allow him to leave without having to participate in the next elimination test!"
In the quiet cave hall, only the cold voice of the man in black echoed.
The nine monks in the cave hall, including Zhou Yang, all changed their expressions because of his words.
Zhou Yang couldn't help but look at Jiang Fengxian, but found that Jiang Fengxian was also looking at him.
He saw determination in Jiang Fengxian's eyes, and it was obvious that she had no intention of giving up.
Zhou Yang once wondered why Jiang Fengxian wanted to take risks in the Kunxu Realm and compete for the "Holy Infant Fruit" when she clearly possessed a "green wood spirit body" and had a good chance of transforming into an elixir and giving birth to a baby as long as she practiced step by step.
Jiang Fengxian did not answer him at that time.
But later, after the two had that kind of relationship in the green tripod, Jiang Fengxian also confided in him during a conversation.
It turns out that all she did was to cultivate Nascent Soul as quickly as possible, then go deep into the wild jungle to find the settlement of the "Tianfeng Clan", find her "heartless" father, and bring him back to her mother's tomb
repent!
Zhou Yang is not very optimistic about Jiang Fengxian's goal.
Jiang Fengxian herself said that her "Tianfeng Clan" father had very good blood. He was a direct descendant of an elder of the "Tianfeng Clan" who was equivalent to a Yuanying Stage monk, and when she was born, she already had a golden
The strength of the monks in the later stage of Dan.
Now that hundreds of years have passed, it may have become a sixth-order existence.
If this is the case, Jiang Fengxian has succeeded in transforming the elixir into a baby, so what else?
To take a step back, even though her father had not been promoted to the sixth level, and because the people of the "Tianfeng Clan" lived longer than the human monks, he lived until she formed the Nascent Soul.
Facing an unknown number of sixth-level beings in the "Tianfeng Clan", how could she, who had just formed a Nascent Soul, take away her father under the eyes of those beings?
Zhou Yang believes that Jiang Fengxian doesn't know this, but she definitely has her own ideas and persistence.
In this case, he couldn't give much advice in this regard. He could only try his best to help her achieve this goal and prevent her from leaving any regrets.
So when he saw the firm look in Jiang Fengxian's eyes, any intention of retreating in his heart was instantly eliminated.
Not only Zhou Yang, but none of the other seven people are willing to quit at this time.
They all managed to get through three levels to get here, so how could they easily give up this opportunity to obtain the "Holy Infant Fruit" just because of what the man in black robe said.
"Isn't anyone abstaining? Then let's start the fourth challenge now!"
As the man in black robe spoke, he waved his sleeves, and he, Zhou Yang and others were instantly teleported from the cave hall to the foot of a spiritual mountain rich in aura.
"Did you see the palace up there? The five people who arrive at the palace first can enter and pick the [Holy Infant Fruit]. You can take action now!"
Under Lingshan Mountain, the man in black robe pointed at a black palace on the top of the mountain, his voice as cold as ever.
When Zhou Yang and others heard what he said, no one rushed up the mountain rashly. Instead, they carefully observed and looked at the entire Lingshan Mountain.
This spiritual mountain is one or two thousand feet high. The entire mountain peak is barren of grass from bottom to top, and the exposed parts of the mountain from bottom to top are covered with black rocks. The entire mountain seems to be made of stone.
The black palace on the top of the mountain covers an area of about four or five acres, and its style is a bit rough, as if it was built randomly.
On the surface, Zhou Yang didn't notice anything unusual about this spiritual mountain.
Well, I can’t say there are no abnormalities.
The biggest and most obvious anomaly is that the concentration of spiritual energy on Lingshan Mountain has clearly reached the level of sixth-order high-grade spiritual veins, but there is not a single blade of grass growing on such a Lingshan Mountain.
This kind of situation will not occur even in a desolate and barren place like the boundless sand sea.
But now is not the time to dwell on this, because after preliminary observations, someone has already climbed the mountain first.
This climber is also an "old acquaintance" of Zhou Yang - Master Black Vulture.
Seeing the first explorer appear, Zhou Yang and others naturally cheered up and took the opportunity to observe.
I saw Master Black Vulture originally preparing to fly up to Lingshan Mountain, but as soon as he entered the airspace of the mountain peak, he was directly pushed to the ground and almost fell over.
It can be seen from this that flying is prohibited in this spiritual mountain.
Then Zhou Yang and the others could clearly see that after Master Black Vulture landed, his shoulders sank and his knees bent slightly, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back.
From this we can see that the gravity within the mountain range must be many times that of the outside world.
And as Master Black Vulture's mana surged, his bent legs quickly stood up straight, and his shoulders straightened a lot.
This let Zhou Yang and others know that mana can be used in the mountain peak, and mana can also help reduce gravity suppression.
Soon, after Master Black Eagle got used to the situation, he began to officially climb the mountain.
When Zhou Yang and others saw this scene, no one dared to wait any longer, and they all walked into the mountain range.
As soon as he entered the mountain peak, even if Zhou Yang was well prepared, his shoulders would inevitably sink, as if he was carrying a huge mountain on his back.
Then he used his magic power a little and found that if he kept using his magic power, he could reduce the weight of gravity pressing on him by about 30%.
But he soon discovered a bad situation, that is, if he relied on mana to weaken gravity, the mana he consumed every breath was almost the same as the mana consumed to cast a third-level high-quality spell.
Based on this calculation, even if he holds the high-grade spiritual stone to replenish his mana at all times, and even if there are no other obstacles blocking the mountain, he will probably be reluctant to walk to the top of the mountain.
and……
Zhou Yang looked at the figure of Master Black Vulture who was walking at the front.
At this time, Master Black Vulture had already walked one-tenth of the distance, but his speed slowed down significantly after completing this distance.
There is only one explanation for this situation, and the gravity at higher places is stronger.
This discovery made Zhou Yang's heart sink, and he couldn't help but look at Jiang Fengxian beside him.
Jiang Fengxian's cultivation level is higher than his, and her magic power is naturally much stronger than his, but Jiang Fengxian's physical strength is completely incomparable to his. The two have already verified this.
If he could still climb up the mountain normally by relying on his physical strength, even without using magic power to help reduce gravity, Jiang Fengxian would definitely not be able to do this.
Obviously, Jiang Fengxian himself quickly understood this.
So when she saw Zhou Yang looking at him, she quickly shook her head and said: "Don't worry about me, you go first!"
When Zhou Yang heard this, he did not agree. Instead, he pondered for a moment and said, "I'll try to carry you on my back and see if I can go faster."
After speaking, he waved to Jiang Fengxian and motioned for her to come onto his back.
Seeing this, Jiang Fengxian hesitated for a moment, but was still unwilling to give up the opportunity. She jumped on his back obediently, stretched out her hands and hugged his neck.
With the beauty behind her, Zhou Yang didn't have any ambiguous thoughts.
He put his hands back, supported Jiang Fengxian's calves, and then took the first step forward.
Click!
There was a crisp sound, but a stone on the ground could not withstand the pressure and broke into pieces.
"You'd better put me down. This method is destined to not work. There is no way we can leave such a loophole for us to exploit!"
As Jiang Fengxian spoke, she released her hands holding Zhou Yang's neck and wanted to get off.
But Zhou Yang had no intention of letting go at all. Instead, he held her legs tightly with both hands and said in a deep voice: "It's okay, I can still withstand it!"
After saying that, he took a deep breath and climbed to the top of the mountain step by step.
And wherever he walked, he left deep footprints one after another.
Naturally, other climbers also noticed the situation of Zhou Yang and the two of them. They were all happy to see the results and wished that Zhou Yang could continue like this.
Obviously, if Zhou Yang insists on doing this, even if he can really carry Jiang Fengxian to the top of the mountain, he will definitely fall behind the rest of them and lose the opportunity to obtain the "Holy Infant Fruit".
In this way, when Zhou Yang completed one-tenth of the distance, the people in the front had already completed half of the journey, and the people in front of him had completed at least 30% of the distance.
"Put me down!"
"If you are alone, you still have a chance to fight. If you take me with you, we will both be eliminated!"
"I already know your intentions. You really don't have to give up this opportunity just to prove something to me!"
Jiang Fengxian looked at the man's sweaty side face with complicated eyes, her mood was extremely complicated.
She was very touched that Zhou Yang could give up this opportunity for her.
But if Zhou Yang loses the opportunity to obtain the "Holy Infant Fruit" due to her own reasons, how can she feel at ease?
But in the face of her advice, Zhou Yang still just said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter, I can still stand it!"
That’s it again!
Jiang Fengxian bit her silver teeth and couldn't help but leaned into the man's ear and shouted angrily:
"What's the point of holding on?"
"Even if you can hold on and carry me to the top of the mountain, there are only five [Holy Infant Fruits]. How can we still have a share by then?"
"You know what? I would rather you go up the mountain to get a [Holy Infant Fruit] alone than watch both of us get nothing!"
Could Zhou Yang not know this truth?
But how will you know if you don’t try?
He looked up at the few people who had already walked halfway up the mountain, and suddenly said: "Well, if there are no other changes up there, I will let you go first."
After saying that, he didn't care what Jiang Fengxian thought, and said: "That's it, you have to take a good rest first to conserve your strength."
As if in agreement with Zhou Yang's words, after a while, the monk at the front of the mountain had a problem.
There was a flash of lightning, and a silver-white thunder suddenly fell from the sky and hit the monk.
Even though the monk used his defensive powers in time to block the thunder, he was inevitably delayed.
And when it continues to move forward, almost every ten feet it rises, a bolt of thunder will fall.
After being struck by several thunderbolts in succession, the monk had to stop temporarily and meditate on the spot to recover his mana.
"Look, I just said it won't be that easy!"
"Let's go one more way. After I take you halfway, you should have a chance to compete with them!"
A smile flashed across Zhou Yang's face, and he turned to look at Jiang Fengxian with a relaxed expression as he told her his plan.
Their cheeks were less than a foot apart, and Zhou Yang's breath was hot on Jiang Fengxian's face, making her cheeks burn.
She looked at Zhou Yang with her eyebrows twitching slightly, and asked in a low tone: "What about you? If you really carry me halfway, will you still have the energy to fight for those five places?"
“We won’t know until we get to that point!”
Zhou Yang turned back, answered her in a calm voice, and then continued to climb steadily.
Seeing this, Jiang Fengxian moved her mouth, wanting to say something, but it seemed as if something was stuck and she couldn't say anything.
"You must have been a cow in your last life!"
She held it in for a long time, only to say such a sentence bitterly, and then she just hugged Zhou Yang's neck tightly and stopped talking.
When Zhou Yang heard what she said, he felt happy, knowing that he was sincere and had finally won the heart of the beautiful woman.
It is said that people feel refreshed when happy events happen. Zhou Yang was so happy that he suddenly felt that the double gravity pressing on his body was no longer so uncomfortable. The speed was even faster than before without even realizing it.
After an unknown amount of time passed like this, he finally carried Jiang Fengxian on his back and walked half the distance.
At this time, the fastest monk was less than two hundred feet away from the top of the mountain.
"Okay, you can only rely on yourself for the rest of the journey. Take care to protect yourself. No matter how good the opportunity is, you have to live to enjoy it before it counts!"
Halfway up the mountain, Zhou Yang let go of his numb hands and let Jiang Fengxian get down to the ground, still not forgetting to tell her to be careful to protect herself.
Jiang Fengxian looked at his handsome face covered with sweat, and suddenly came forward and gave him a sweet kiss.
Then before he came back to his senses, she had quickly inspired the "Tianfeng Clan" blood transformation, and ran up to the top of the mountain with her wings.
"Zhou Yang, I'm waiting for you at the top of the mountain. You must come up!"
