It is mysterious and unpredictable, and people in the world spread rumors about it, casting a strange veil over it.
The people regard it as a sacred mountain. The ladder to heaven is so steep and dangerous that ordinary people cannot climb to the top of the mountain. In order to worship the sacred mountain, they build temples and set up altars at the foot of the mountain. There is constant incense all year round and there are many people walking on it.
At the foot of the mountain.
There are many temples, among which there is a building called Tianji Pavilion. Anyone who wants to inquire about the information can just put down the question in the wooden box outside Tianji Pavilion and come back two days later to get the answer and pay the reward.
I have some acquaintance with Langya Pavilion in later generations, but any questions that cannot be answered by Tianji Pavilion need to be climbed up the ladder to the top of the mountain, and someone will answer it by then.
Time is like an arrow, twisting your fingers and flying away.
Three days passed quickly. At the foot of Tianji Mountain, Emperor Chu led Yao Yue, Dugu Jian, and Yan Yun's Eighteen Cavalry to arrive.
Everyone came with their horses neighing in the wind, all dressed in long clothes, but the aura lingering on their bodies made people shudder. Seeing the tall horses standing upright, the people offering incense at the foot of the mountain knew that the identity of this group of people was by no means simple.
The ink dragon raised its head and hoofs, suspended in the void. Emperor Chu tightened his reins and looked up at Tianji Mountain. The mountain peaks were like pillars supporting the sky, lifelike, the ladder to heaven was like a flying rainbow from the sky, a spectacle. On the top of the mountain, a stubborn monkey sat alone.
The cliff head looks like a god or a Buddha.
The solitary peak is abrupt, reaching straight into the sky. On both sides of the peak are green grass, wild flowers, and towering ancient trees.
"To the top of the sky, the dangerous peak stands like a sharp sword. This Tianji Mountain really lives up to its reputation!"
Emperor Chu looked at the whisper, jumped on his horse, turned around and ordered: "Yao Yue, Dugu Jian, you two stay at the foot of the mountain with Yan Yun's Eighteen Cavalry. I will come back as soon as I go."
"Sir, be careful. This Tianji Mountain looks like an ordinary mountain range, shrouded in clouds and mist, quiet and peaceful, but it actually hides a secret."
"The two sect masters walked with their swords, but they both stopped on the mountainside. There seemed to be a vast barrier blocking the way forward."
Yao Yue's light voice sounded, giving a warning, and Emperor Chu handed the reins to Yao Yue, with a calm expression and a firm voice.
"It's just a mountain peak. If you can't let it surrender to your feet, how can you talk about trying to conquer the world?"
"Just be vigilant and wait patiently!"
Finished.
Emperor Chu strode forward with his sleeves fluttered. When people around him saw him walking towards the ladder to the heaven, they were all shocked, and some people gave kind words to remind him.
"Master, please don't work in vain. The ladder to heaven leads directly to the heaven, and no one but us and other mortals can enter!"
"Yes, this ladder has existed for hundreds of years, and only one person has successfully climbed to the top. It is said that he is the son of God, and climbing the ladder is just to go home."
There were reminders and discussions all around. Emperor Chu chuckled when he heard the sound and murmured to himself: "What's wrong with going straight to heaven? I am the real dragon emperor, there is nowhere in the world that I can't go to?"
"There will be one person who reaches the top of the ladder in a hundred years. I will be the first person in a hundred years. This legend will be written by me myself."
Think about this.
The true dragon energy bloomed in Emperor Chu's body, and he walked like flying. In an instant, he appeared thousands of meters away, and the people at the foot of the mountain were shocked.
"this..............."
"He is so fast, maybe he can really reach the top of the mountain!"
"Don't make trouble. All those who came to climb to the top were never slow in the early stage and were struggling behind. I believe this young master will meet us again before dusk."
Some people want to witness the miracle and see Emperor Chu reaching the top of the mountain and seeing all the mountains at a glance. Some people are sarcastic and expect Emperor Chu to make a fool of himself.
However.
Emperor Chu just wanted to reach the top of the mountain and ask Nangong Xi about the whereabouts of the three of them. He needed an answer, otherwise he would have to find the three of them even if he searched every corner of the entire continent.
These days.
He couldn't sleep at night, thinking in his mind that Shangguan Bangning was the body of the overlord, Chu Chen had the attributes of an overlord and the true dragon bloodline, Nangong Xi had awakened the Tianfeng bloodline, and the mysterious force had kidnapped them and must have taken them away.
The power of blood can also be used to contain themselves.
so.
Time was running out, and he couldn't afford to neglect anything. If things were too late, things would change. If he didn't find the three of them within a day, he wouldn't be able to rest in peace.
"It's time to pick up the speed!"
Emperor Chu looked back at the bottom of the ladder and found that the figure was small and blurry. He decided to speed up. As he raised his hand, Zhan Lu unsheathed his sword and jumped up to stand on the hilt of the sword.
"Whoa!"
The sword light circulates, one person and one sword shuttle through the void, the strong wind roars by, and the clothes are flying, as if you are on the top of the clouds, surrounded by dense mist.
In the blink of an eye.
An hour passed.
Emperor Chu stood in the curling smoke, raised his head and looked ahead. The ladder to heaven was still endless at a glance, as if he had just set off.
"This Tianji Mountain cannot be so tall. After flying for an hour with my sword, I should have reached the top of the mountain!"
Emperor Chu had doubts in his heart. The blue lu sheathed under his feet, his figure floated down in the air, standing on the ladder to heaven, looking around, there were towering ancient trees, surrounded by mist, and the peak holding the sky directly in front, which seemed close at hand, yet seemed far away.
On the horizon.
"Little bitch, immediately scan Tianji Mountain to find out what mysteries are!"
Emperor Chu suspected that he had been in a great illusion, so he had been wandering around for so long and could not reach the top of the mountain.
"Hey, the system is scanning, host, please wait!"
"Hey, the system scanned that the host is currently in the Fantasy Array of the Universe. If you want to break out of the Illusion Array, you must understand the secret of the Illusion Array."
"Little bitch, do you have a way to directly break the illusion of the universe?"
"Hey, remind the host that the system has an auxiliary function that the host can turn on and use. The auxiliary function can include the Qiankun Magic Array. At that time, only the host can activate the Qiankun Magic Array."
"So.........strong?"
"After I turn on the auxiliary function and control this illusory universe, I want to see where the Tianji Pavilion is hidden."
"Little bitch, turn on the system auxiliary function immediately!"
"Hey, congratulations to the host for successfully enabling the system's latest auxiliary function. It cost two million reputation points. The current reputation points are zero."
Xiao Jian's voice sounded, and Emperor Chu was not surprised. He just felt that the reputation points were never enough. Fortunately, he just had enough to activate the auxiliary function.
The auxiliary function has been turned on. Emperor Chu did not hesitate at all. He looked inside the system page and clicked on the auxiliary function. He found that there was a column for formations and raised his hand to open it lightly.
"Whoa!"
Above the sky, the mist swirled, forming a huge whirlpool, and the space seemed to be shrinking rapidly.
The strong wind roared and the ancient trees swayed. Emperor Chu's black hair danced wildly, his figure swayed slightly, and his clothes flew up. The mist in the sky disappeared instantly. He turned back to look at the top of the mountain, and the corners of a pavilion appeared in his sight.
“I don’t know the true face of Mount Lu, just because I am in this mountain!”
"It's only a stone's throw away from Tianji Pavilion, but it takes me an hour to wander around the illusory universe!"
Emperor Chu waved his sleeves and strode towards the top of the mountain. After a cup of tea, he came to the open space in front of the pavilion. On the stone bench under the ancient tree in front of him, an old man with white hair and childish face appeared.
"Little bitch, scan the old gentleman's information and send it immediately!"
Emperor Chu's mind moved, and he moved towards the old man. As he walked forward, the old man's eyes suddenly opened, and two rays of light flashed across like swords, sharp and sharp.
"It's been a hundred years, but I didn't expect that someone could still climb to the top of the mountain and actually destroy the mountain-protecting formation."
The old man's voice was hoarse and old, exuding an aura of decay. Emperor Chu looked up and saw the old man raising his hand to signal for him to sit down on the stone bench in front of him.
"Your Excellency is of distinguished status, please sit down and talk!"
"Old sir, I have come to Tianji Mountain to ask for something, and I hope you can grant it!"
Emperor Chu straightened his waist, raised his fist to salute, and a majestic sound sounded. The old man narrowed his slender eyes and thought for a long time, and his old cheeks twitched slightly.
"Your Excellency, your methods are against the will of heaven, and you are a man from outside the world. I am afraid that I will not have the answer you want on this Tianji Mountain." (To be continued)
