Chapter 593 Scramble To Climb Up
The chain abyss was just an appetizer for mountaineering
It had been only half an hour since Han Fei’s departure.
Above the abyss, there were still people struggling, but Han Fei had already started running around the mountain. Why did he run around the mountain? Of course to choose an appropriate location to climb the mountain! This thing was no different from free climbing. In Han Fei’s view, two types of people had an advantage in climbing this inverted giant peak.
The first type was manipulators, who could summon spiritual plants and climb up through the spiritual plants. At this moment, Han Fei saw a girl stuck to the rock wall with vines.
However, the girl only climbed less than 100 meters and then began to slide down. The vines were easy to break off or couldn’t protrude from the cracks in the rock. Anyway, Han Fei watched for about ten minutes. Not only did the girl not climb up, but instead slid 10 meters down.
Han Fei shook his head. It seemed that manipulators couldn’t handle it. Or perhaps this person was too weak.
Han Fei tried climbing about ten meters. There were very few force bearing points on the rock wall. He tried to use the power of Little Fatty and suddenly felt it much easier.
Han Fei didn’t rush up and continued to run in circles.
If this trial was so simple, it wouldn’t last for three hours. If there was no gravity, only half an hour would be enough, or even less. Han Fei ran for quite a while and saw many people climbing on the rock wall. The tallest one had climbed seven or eight hundred meters.
Then Han Fei saw a figure flas.h.i.+ng like a spiritual monkey. It was Xia Xiaochan!
However, Xia Xiaochan had already climbed nearly a kilometer, and Han Fei said to her via voice transmission, Be careful! i’ll see how Kuangkuang and the other are doing. Xia Xiaochan was distracted and crushed the stone she was clutching. She sighed and replied, Don’t distract me! But Han Fei had already run away. For people like Xia Xiaochan who had mastered the skill of flash, gravity was of little significance. She could aim at the target and flash over. It was just that at the moment when she flashed out, she would have to bear the gravity for a while before she flashed again.
When Han Fei found Le Renkuang, he found that this fat man was actually squatting at the foot of the mountain, about to launch his Bloodthirsty Broadsword.
Han Fei was surprised. “Hey, what are you doing here?”
When Le Renkuang saw Han Fei, he immediately said with joy, “Do you think the Bloodthirsty Broadsword can take me up?”
Han Fei rolled his eyes at Le Renkuang. “What are you talking about? This mountain looks as high as seven or eight kilometers. Can your knife fly seven or eight kilometers high? Even if it can, how can it take you, a fatty, up? I bet you will fall before you fly a kilometer high.”
“Really?”
Le Renkuang gave up his plan, rubbing his stomach. “Then I can only climb up little by little? How long will it take to climb to the peak?”
Han Fei glanced at the rock wall and said, “It’s difficult, but you are an armorist. Are you afraid that you can’t climb up?”
Le Renkuang randomly found a small bulge and said, “I have already tried once but ended up crus.h.i.+ng the little small bulge I was clutching and falling down after only climbing a hundred meters.” Han Fei couldn’t help but lean forward to take a look and found that the small bulge was only thumb-sized. It was much harder than rock climbing to climb up with this thing.
Han Fei pressed it with his hand but crushed it.
Han Fei said, “This shows that we must properly control our own strength. The strength cannot be small. If it is small, it cannot resist the gravity; and the strength cannot be too great either. If so, it will easily break these small rocks. Le Renkuang sighed and said, “I know! Then how great a force do you think I should use to climb up?”
Han Fei looked at him. “Why don’t you ask Xiaobai? She is a manipulator. She should be better at this thing than you.”
Le Renkuang’s eyes lit up. “Yes! That is a good idea.”
So Han Fei and Le Renkuang began to run around the giant peak. And they saw more than a dozen people getting together and cooperating with each other. They also saw four manipulators trying to get spiritual plants to hold onto the rock wall.
There were more and more people under the mountain. When Han Fei arrived here, there might only be a few hundred people here. However, after he ran a half lap, people could be seen almost everywhere under the mountain!
Most of these people had already started climbing. After they realized that this was a gravitational secret realm, they knew that time must be precious. In climbing, one just needed to use the right amount of strength. Therefore, what mattered in this round was the precise grasp of one’s own strength and speed.
However, these people were just climbing but had never thought whether there was any other way besides climbing.
Some people might be thinking, but when they saw others had climbed hundreds of meters, they became anxious and started climbing again.
When Han Fei found Luo Xiaobai and Zhang Xuanyu, the two had climbed more than 500 meters high. And the speed of the two was very fast, and it seemed that they had not climbed for long.
Le Renkuang immediately said to them via voice transmission, Wait for me!
Luo Xiaobai looked down and was surprised to find that Han Fei and Le Renkuang were below.
Immediately after, two vines dropped down.
Le Renkuang quickly grabbed the vine. However, as soon as he dragged it, dozens of vines suddenly broke off on Zhang Xuanyu’s side and he was hanging upside down on the cliff.
Zhang Xuanyu said helplessly, “Kuangkuang, easy. I told you not to eat so much, but you just didn’t listen to me…”
Luo Xiaobai issued an order in her heart and large tracts of small leafy vines like creepers clung to the rock wall.
Luo Xiaobai said, “It doesn’t matter. My vines can hold four people. But Han Fei, you’ll have to give me some spiritual energy. And Le Renkuang, you can’t completely count on the vines. The gravity on this rock wall is greater than outside and it’s not easy to cling to the rock wall.” Han Fei thought for a while and said, “What about eating spiritual fruit?”
Luo Xiaobai thought for a while. “Eating spiritual fruit will cause the spiritual energy in the body to riot and become unstable. Then the four of us will definitely fall. And have you noticed that there are many people near us?”
Han Fei turned his head to look. There were probably nearly a hundred people on the nearby cliff. Except for a dozen familiar faces from the Blue Sea Town, the others were all strangers. Han Fei frowned. What if these people waited for them to climb to a height and then attack them?
Han Fei grinned. “I see.”
With a swish, Han Fei took out the Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Daggers. In an instant, arrow light flashed all over the sky, and arrows shot up everywhere.
“Han Fei, don’t go too far. We haven’t affected you.”
“Han Fei, you’re maliciously preventing us from climbing.”
Han Fei snorted coldly. “This place has been occupied by us. You guys, leave.” For a moment, hundreds of people fell one after another. They had no choice. In climbing, as long as someone attacked from below, the person above couldn’t climb at all. Someone immediately shouted, “Han Fei, if we are stalemated like this, you won’t be able to climb the mountain either.”
Someone said, “Han Fei, at this time, we must trust each other.”
Han Fei sneered. Trust? Why should I trust strangers?
Han Fei said, “Xiaobai, come down.”
“Huh?”
“Wrap me with tough vines. I will climb up first and then drag you up one by one.”
“Huh?”
Zhang Xuanyu was dumbfounded. “Are you sure?”
Le Renkuang asked, “How long will it take you to climb up?”
Han Fei grinned. “It’s a pity that Xia Xiaochan has already climbed up, and I don’t trust other people. As long as Xiaobai’s vines are tough enough and won’t be cut off by others, I can drag all of you up.”
Xia Xiaochan believed in the ability of Han Fei and the others too much. In her simple thinking, climbing mountains shouldn’t be a problem for them. The only one she was worried about before she climbed up was Le Renkuang, but then she thought Le Renkuang was so lazy that he probably would turn to Xiaobai for help. But she took the problem too simply. If it were so simple, they wouldn’t have been required to climb the mountain in this round.
Luo Xiaobai looked at the extremely high mountain and said, “Once the vines are more than a kilometer away from me, I’ll have less control over them. If they’re more than 3000 meters away, I can’t control them. You’ll have to remind me of the distance.”
Han Fei grinned. “I see.”
Then Luo Xiaobai and the others all jumped down. This was the third time they had tried climbing the mountain. The first two times, some people were sabotaging their attempt. After they drove the first bunch of people away, the second bunch came.
Therefore, although Luo Xiaobai and the others were quite strong, they couldn’t handle this situation.
In the distance, there were still people watching them coldly. Someone sneered. “Anyone can climb up, but they can’t.”
Han Fei could perceive that there seemed to be a lot of people ready to attack them, but he couldn’t perceive anything on the top of the mountain where there seemed to be an array blocking his perception.
Luo Xiaobai tied the vines to Han Fei and calmly a.n.a.lyzed, “Although I don’t know why, the three of us may be besieged later. There will definitely be some people trying to stop you from climbing up. Let’s try once first and find out those who harbor ill intentions.”
