With the permission of the immortal world manager, Ran Weng and other immortals can move more freely.
The plan has been basically formulated. Lu Xiao plans to go to Ximu Peak to find Fairy Zhong as soon as possible. Yongzhen is also preparing to lead a team to Jianmu where Pangu is sleeping.
Before leaving, Lu Xiao told Ran Weng the requirements of the Di people.
"Haha! This little problem is nothing."
Ran Weng stroked his beard cheerfully and laughed and said: "It just so happens that you are going to join Kunyu to build a tree in the sea, so I will accompany Miss Yongzhen on the trip, and by the way, I will also meet the Queen of the Di Human Race and tell her my promise.
"
Jianmu is located to the west of the main island of Taoyuan Wonderland, and you need to cross the sea to get there.
Under the guidance of Ran Weng, the three-person team led by Yongzhen came to Mozhitan, southwest of Tianwai Village, and Yongzhen played the bone flute to call Kunyu.
About half an hour later, a familiar cry came from far away on the sea.
"Woo!"
"Oh~"
Ran Weng looked at Kunyu who was getting bigger and bigger nostalgically: "Old friend, I haven't seen you for many years, how are you doing?"
"Woo~"
Amidst Kunsu's cheerful cries, Yongzhen and others entered the Diren Kingdom through its open mouth.
Seeing again the old swordsman who had given the Di people eternal youth, the queen of the Di people was overjoyed. After getting Ran Weng's personal promise, she finally put aside her hesitation.
When Yongzhen and others went to Jianmu in the sea to ask for the artifact from the Great God Pangu, Lu Xiao and Yu'er also officially set off from Tianwai Village and headed west to Ximu Peak in the northwest of Xiandao.
According to the descriptions of Gu Yuesheng and Jiang Ruhong, Fairy Zhong lives in seclusion on the top of Donghuang, the highest point of West Mother Peak. Anyone in Tianwai Village is prohibited from approaching her residence. Anyone who violates this will be punished by this hot-tempered woman.
Xian attacks without mercy.
Ximufeng is the highest mountain in Taoyuan Wonderland. From the middle of the mountain, you can see the lingering clouds and mist, which is as ethereal as a masterpiece painted by a landscape painter.
During the actual climbing process, the mist formed by condensation of water vapor caused a lot of trouble for Lu Xiao and Yu'er.
Lu Xiao's five element attribute is gold, which is related to water. The impact of these mist filled with rich spiritual power on him can be tolerated.
However, Yu'er's main attribute of the five elements is fire, which happens to be restrained by the water element. When climbing the mountain, the mist that is difficult to dissipate greatly weakens her spellcasting ability.
Fortunately, Yu'er's fighting style is not based on spells. Under Lu Xiao's guidance, she temporarily gave up absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world and used pure physical attacks to eliminate enemies blocking her way.
Ximu Peak is rich in aura, and a large number of immortal beasts live here. You can even see some accomplished immortals and fairies here.
Most immortals are easy to talk to, and after Lu Xiao tells them their origins and purpose, they are usually allowed to go.
But just as people are different, there are also individuals among the immortals who hold different views.
Some immortals would attack the two of them with the intention of testing their strength, and most of them would stop at one point.
There are also a very small number of immortals who are extremely repulsive to outsiders. They will take the initiative to attack Lu Xiao and Yu'er who are passing by, and will not show mercy.
The strength of the immortals was not something Yu'er could bear. Along the way, Lu Xiao mainly asked her to take charge of the immortal beasts and spirits that were not too strong. Lu Xiao almost took over all the battles with the immortals alone.
This is also a good opportunity. Lu Xiao can rely on the battle with these immortals to further understand the essence and high-level applications of Eastern magic, and help him speed up the analysis of the world rules within the Divine Barrier.
The Dragonborn's talent allows Lu Xiao to control the weather at will, but the clouds and mists above the West Mother Peak seem to have been reinforced by some kind of rules, making it difficult for Lu Xiao to mobilize them to assist him.
However, the presence of water vapor means rainfall. Lu Xiao does not insist on completely controlling these clouds and mist. Instead, he uses the method of pushing the boat along with the current to urge the water vapor in the clouds and mist to pour down, and uses metal spells to trigger thunder and lightning in the clouds.
"The body of a cloud dragon is four vertical!"
The dragon-shaped thunder and lightning, which was even more powerful than the Taiyin God's Thunder, coiled and struck from the sky. Although the angry-eyed immortal in front of him tried his best to arrange a defensive circle on his head, in the end he was still knocked out after the defense was blasted.
The thunder and lightning continued unabated.
"Ahhhhhh!"
The four vertical movements of Yunlong's body are already regarded as advanced spells in Guigu Taoism, not to mention the blessing of the environment. It is natural that the defensive array set up in a hurry cannot stop it.
Considering that the other party had no murderous intention, Lu Xiao did not kill these hostile immortals, and left after depriving them of their fighting power.
While continuing to climb, Yu'er looked at Lu Xiao with a strange expression: "Even the immortal is not your opponent. How strong are you?"
Lu Xiao shrugged and said, "These immortals are just casual immortals practicing outside. There is still a big gap between them and real immortals like Ran Weng and Gu Yuesheng."
"My strength is not as strong as you think. Compared with Gu Yuesheng and Ran Weng, I am still a little far behind. I am not a match for Grand Master Yuwen Tuo."
Yu'er sighed and said: "The more you understand, the more you can feel how terrifying Grand Master Yuwen is. Even the immortals who have practiced for thousands of years are no match for him."
"Don't think so much."
Lu Xiao consoled him: "Half of Yuwen Tuo's strength comes from himself, and half comes from the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand."
"As long as Yongzhen and the others can successfully retrieve the Pangu Ax, we will be able to obtain weapons that can compete with the Xuanyuan Sword. At least we will not be completely helpless when facing Yuwen Tuo."
"Let's go, keep going up, the height of this mountain is really no joke."
Climbing Ximu Peak made Lu Xiao truly understand what the eighteen bends of the mountain road are.
Located in the wonderland of Taoyuan, there is no real mountain road on Ximu Peak. Lu Xiao and Yu'er could only try their best to choose the easier direction, and spent most of their time traveling through the mountains and forests.
Two days have passed. According to Lu Xiao's calculations, they have climbed more than 3,000 meters in height, but they still cannot see the highest point of the West Peak.
Climbing a mountain is not like walking on flat ground. Finding the way through the mountains and forests will take a lot of time, not to mention that there are many local immortals in this mountain who do not welcome outsiders.
Another two days passed, and Lu Xiao finally saw the Donghuang Peak mentioned by Gu Yuesheng through the Eagle Eyes, which was about 700 meters above them.
After walking for a long time in the mountains filled with cold aura, the fatigue accumulated by the fire attribute Yu'er became more and more serious.
Moreover, as the altitude climbed, the enemies on West Mother Peak became stronger and stronger, and Lu Xiao no longer allowed Yu'er to participate in the battle.
"Hold on, it's the last few hundred meters."
At this height, the climb is already covered with white snow, and the density of vegetation drops sharply. Most of the time, all you see are rocks covered with snow.
The top of Donghuang is the only exception. According to Gu Yuesheng, as long as you can see greenery on the snow-covered mountain peaks, it proves that you have found a place.
In the last 200 meters, Yu'er finally lost strength, and Lu Xiao could only carry her on his back and continue moving forward.
Fortunately, there were no fairy beasts or immortals near the top of the East Emperor. Apparently they all knew Fairy Zhong's violent temper and did not dare to approach her residence at will.
Leaning weakly on Lu Xiao's shoulder, Yu'er complained unwillingly: "Why are you still so energetic? I didn't even see you breathing heavily on the way up the mountain."
"Haha~ Who knows."
Lu Xiao changed the subject in a perfunctory manner: "Maybe it's because I'm gifted. Let's not talk about it for now. Look."
Lu Xiao raised his chin towards the summit of Donghuang, which was already very close at hand. The two sides separated by a thin line had completely different scenery.
There are a large number of colorful flowers, plants and trees planted inside, while the outside is a desolate scenery with falling snow. The scenery on both sides forms a sharp contrast on the top of the mountain thousands of meters high.
'Boundary?'
Just when Lu Xiao was about to carry Yu'er on his back and walk into the barrier, a muffled sound of thunder suddenly came from the thick clouds above Ximu Peak.
"Boom!"
A slender bolt of lightning descended from the clouds and landed just in front of Lu Xiao's left foot as he planned to step into the barrier.
A cold female voice came from the only simple wooden house on the platform of Donghuang Peak: "Stop, comers. This is just a warning. If you still don't listen to the advice, don't blame me for being rude."
