After climbing no more than ten thousand feet, Ling Han had to retreat.
He couldn't hold on any longer. The soles of his feet were already bloody. If he tried to be tough again, his feet would be worn away. Then his ankles, then his thighs, and his whole body would be worn away.
He retreated to the foot of the mountain, and the stone man did the same, standing beside Ling Han stupidly.
"Let me see your feet." Ling Han said.
But the stone man didn't respond. It couldn't understand Ling Han's words.
Well.
Ling Han sat on the ground and raised his feet.
The stone man followed suit and sat down, then crossed his legs.
Its feet have also changed, and a piece of it has been forcibly gouged out.
Hiss, what a terrible place. Both he and the stone man suffered a great crime.
Only then did Ling Han further realize the horror of the primitive abyss.
Before, it was just a storm between heaven and earth. Although it was terrifying, it could be avoided. But here, if you want to pass, you have to face the difficulties head on.
No wonder it is said that this is a place where even the emperor may have access but not exit.
Moreover, this has not yet truly entered the depths of the primordial abyss.
"Can't we cross?" Ling Han looked at the mountains lying in front of him and frowned.
He is not someone who gives up easily.
"Just right, it can be used to sharpen my will and passion."
By running the Ten Cultivation Techniques, his foot injury gradually healed. After taking a rest, he began to continue climbing the mountain.
The stone man couldn't recover, but it didn't feel any pain anyway. Ling Han walked, and it followed suit, with a silly look on its face.
This time, Ling Han climbed an extra distance.
Retreating to the foot of the mountain, Ling Han was very satisfied with himself. As long as there was progress, it would be a good thing.
He climbs mountains every day. As the days go by, the heights he can reach are getting higher and higher. However, in recent times, his progress has become smaller and smaller, and he has almost reached his limit.
Next, he can still make progress, but it may only be dozens or hundreds of steps more every day.
Look at the soles of his feet again. Even with the magic technique of Shi Xiu Shu, there are still cuts left, as if they were cut out by random knives.
He was all like this, but the stone man was even worse, being a lot shorter.
Its two legs have long been ground flat, but it doesn't matter. You can still form two legs by taking apart the arms.
Even if the stones on both arms are worn away, doesn't it still have a body? It's big anyway, so you can dismantle it at will.
For Linghan, this is not a waste of time. He has sharpened his will and become more tenacious, and his body has become much stronger, and his combat power has been greatly improved.
But whether the stupid guy has improved... Well, I don't know about Ling Han.
Judging from its silly look, I guess it doesn't.
Do you still want to eat this mountain?
Ling Han thought for a while and shook his head.
He is close to his limit. Even if he can squeeze out some more potential, the progress will not be too great. If the top of the mountain is his goal, then he might be able to succeed if he works hard.
But the problem now is that the top of the mountain is far away, so we can only try again when Ling Han's cultivation level improves again.
"Perhaps, only the emperor can climb this mountain."
Ling Han murmured and decided to take a detour.
He set off with the stone man, and after walking around the mountains for a long time, another wasteland appeared in front of him, but it was dotted with stones everywhere.
The stone man immediately rushed out, bang bang bang, stone pieces were attached to its body, and its body began to grow in size. But this time, even if it reached its original size, it did not stop, but was still growing.
middle.
Finally, it turned into a hundred-foot-tall giant and stopped.
"Uh, are you afraid of being poor?" Ling Han said with a smile, this guy has absorbed so many stones, and he can sustain it for a long time.
The stone man didn't understand and just "smirked" at him.
After passing through the stone forest and walking for dozens of days, we saw that the mountains in Hengheng were actually disconnected, and there was an extra city in the middle.
The shape is like a wild cow, lifelike.
"Mythical beast... Kui Niu?" Ling Han murmured. Among the mythical beasts, only Kui Niu is in the shape of a cow, and it only has one leg. This couldn't be more obvious.
"Hey, so I have entered the second level area now?"
Among the nine divine beasts in the first level area, there is no Great Emperor Kui Niu.
Although the nine cities in this first-level area are different in depth, they generally belong to the same area. But this time, Ling Han detoured and traveled a long, long way.
Therefore, he has walked out of the first level area and arrived at the second level area.
"If you want to continue moving forward, you must either climb over the mountain or pass through this city."
Ling Han thought that the thirty-six divine beasts all guarded the passage into the primitive abyss. So, does this mean that these areas are actually relatively safe zones. For example, this city corresponds to a passage that most likely existed in the past.
"It's impossible to climb over the mountain. The requirements for strength are too high. Therefore, if you want to continue deeper, you can only go through this city."
Ling Han put away all his aura and just observed nearby. It would be fun if he walked over rashly and led out Emperor Kui Niu who was sitting in charge.
"Wait a minute, the first level is an area, and the second level is its own whole."
"Given how big this space is, even the disciples of the Great Emperor cannot break through the door casually."
"So, I can definitely pretend to be one."
Ling Han's eyes lit up and he said to the stone man: "Dashi, let's go."
The stone man was dumbfounded until Ling Han started walking, and then it quickly followed.
Bang, bang, bang, it followed behind Ling Han, and its footsteps fell, making a huge sound.
Soon, Ling Han arrived under the city gate.
"Stop!" There was a guard at the city gate, wearing a bronze armor, blocking Ling Han. "Who are you?"
Ling Han smiled slightly: "I am the disciple of the True Dragon Emperor, the Nine Kings."
The guard was stunned.
True Dragon Emperor? Nine Kings?
"That's the first level area!" The guard couldn't believe it. What kind of difficult journey does it take to get from the first level area to here?
Except for emperor-level strength, who can pass?
etc!
He suddenly discovered the stone man and couldn't help but look shocked.
How could such a big stone man exude such a terrifying aura that it made him tremble and make him want to kneel down?
He is a saint!
Ling Han smiled: "This is my little brother, who escorted me all the way here."
The stone man looked at the guard. It had no intelligence, but could sensitively discern Ling Han's will. It found that Ling Han had no murderous intention, so it did not take action against the guard.
To it, this guard was like an ant, and it didn't even care.
The guard nodded blankly. With such a powerful guard, no wonder Ling Han could pass through unimpeded.
"Please wait a moment, sir. I have to go and make an announcement first."
