Chapter 554: A mountain of blades
Translator: 549690339
Following master Jing an’s announcement, a mountain covered in blades suddenly rose from the originally dense forest.
The blades glinted coldly, like the fangs of a poisonous snake. They were extremely dangerous and sharp.
“This is the first trial for a Buddhist disciple. I wish you good luck.” Grandmaster Jing an indifferently said.
“Fellow Daoist Zhu, are you confident?” Qin Chuan patted Zhu Jiahong’s shoulder and asked solemnly.
Zhu Jiahong raised his head and looked at the mountain of daggers that pierced through the clouds. The determination in his eyes changed a little.
!!
This mountain of blades was at least 10000 meters tall, and its surface was filled with blades. They were densely packed and uneven, and there was not a single flat piece of land to stand on.
These blades were as sharp as laser cutting machines. If an ordinary person stepped on them, they could instantly separate their feet and body, and cut them into many pieces.
When Zhu Jiahong went up, he couldn’t use any divine arts, magic weapons, or defensive equipment. He could only rely on his own strength to climb up step by step, reach the top of the mountain, and then climb down.
He knew that it was not easy to obtain the ident.i.ty of a Buddhist disciple, and there was a risk of death.
However, he could not wait any longer.
Now, he could not suppress the inner demons in his body by himself.
If he fell into Demonic Cultivation again, he would definitely become a demonic cultivator without anyone’s help.
In order to prevent this from happening, he was willing to take the risk.
After taking a few deep breaths, Zhu Jiahong strode toward the mountain of daggers, much to Qin Chuan’s antic.i.p.ation.
Zhu Jiahong stopped in front of the mountain of daggers.
Looking at the countless blades in front of him and feeling the sharp momentum coming at him, he couldn’t help but feel fear.
“Zhu Jiahong, don’t be afraid. You will succeed.” Zhu Jiahong clenched his fists and encouraged himself.
Then, he took a deep breath.
Zhu Jiahong circulated his genuine Qi and formed a ten percent genuine Qi defense s.h.i.+eld on the surface of his body.
This was something that could be done. After all, true Qi was a part of one’s strength.
However, the sharpness of these blades was beyond imagination.
When Zhu Jiahong had only climbed a hundred meters, the true energy s.h.i.+eld on the surface of his body was almost unable to hold on.
If he didn’t have the true Qi defense s.h.i.+eld, he wouldn’t have been able to withstand the blades under his feet.
Moreover, the blades of the mountain of blades became sharper and steeper the higher one went.
Zhu Jiahong wasn’t a body cultivator, so he had to continuously provide energy to the defensive cover and climb the mountain at the same time, which consumed a lot of his energy.
However, his current speed did not seem slow.
In less than an hour, he had climbed about 3000 meters.
At this speed, if nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to pa.s.s the test of the mountain of daggers very quickly.
On the ground, Qin Chuan was staring at Zhu Jiahong.
He had never climbed a mountain of daggers before, but he could feel the difficulty.
According to his observations, the first half of the mountain of daggers was relatively easy. The most dangerous and difficult part was still the area near the peak.
The blades in this area were no longer stabbing into the mountain. Instead, they were like the surface of the ocean with turbulent waves, with countless blades moving in an irregular pattern.
In addition, there were also strong hurricanes at this height, accompanied by wind blades, which were sharper than blades. It was extremely difficult for the defensive barriers on the surface of the body to resist them below the celestial realm.
Qin Chuan felt that Zhu Jiahong’s strength could only be considered average among his peers.
With this kind of strength, it felt a little difficult.
To this end, he used his future vision to see if he could pa.s.s.
Just as he was about to use it, master Jing an looked over.
Grandmaster Jing an didn’t say anything, but Qin Chuan understood what he had to do.
He clasped his hands together and bowed to master Jing an, taking away the divine ability.
LAN lang couldn’t help but frown at Qin Chuan’s behavior just now.
“Little Chuan, what did you do this time?” he asked Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan didn’t know how to explain, so he could only try to make up an excuse.
However, what kind of person was LAN lang? how could he be so easily fooled?
“Xiaochuan, I’ll emphasize it again. Don’t try to play any tricks on the master.” LAN lang said sternly.
“Yes!” Qin Chuan nodded his head solemnly.
After this brief interlude, he refocused his attention on Zhu Jiahong.
Zhu Jiahong maintained his speed and seemed to be getting closer and closer to the peak.
Time pa.s.sed by slowly.
He had finally arrived at the area of the flowing blades.
Zhu Jiahong stopped.
Looking at the waves of blades and the rolling Hurricane, Zhu Jiahong felt a huge pressure.
He didn’t move immediately, but used the magic power transformed from genuine Qi in his body to strengthen the defensive s.h.i.+eld on the surface of his body.
After waiting for a few minutes, Zhu Jiahong took the first step.
The moment his feet landed on the group of flowing blades, the area instantly became more active.
Zhu Jiahong didn’t hesitate and stepped on it with both of his feet.
Due to the huge fluctuations, Zhu Jiahong found it hard to stabilize his center of gravity. He could only lean forward, his entire body sticking to the edge of the blade as he inched forward.
If he didn’t do this, he would easily be thrown out.
If he fell down, he would have to climb again.
Zhu Jiahong was like a leaf in the vast ocean, and every step he took required a lot of effort.
“I can’t give up! I can’t give up!”
Zhu Jiahong clenched his teeth and crawled forward with all his might.
The defensive barrier on his body felt like it could dissipate at any moment in the face of the rolling blades and wind blades.
Fortunately, Zhu Jiahong persevered in the end.
He had finally reached the top of the mountain.
But as the saying goes, it’s easy to climb up the mountain but hard to get down.
At this moment, Zhu Jiahong’s condition was not as good as before. His body had been overworking for so long that he was already very tired.
His vision started to blur, and his physical strength was a little weak.
Zhu Jiahong felt that if he were to walk as carefully as he was when he was climbing the mountain, his energy would not be able to support it.
Without energy, it would be hard to control the body.
At that time, the defensive barrier on the surface of his body would disappear, and his physical body would definitely be able to withstand the blades here. He would really die Here.
“I don’t have Qin tianjiao’s absolute strength, and to him, this mountain of blades is no different from an ordinary mountain.
But I’m different. Since I don’t have that kind of strength, I can only rely on my wits. ”
Zhu Jiahong ran through many plans in his mind, but none of them were particularly ideal.
Finally, he had a bold idea.
Zhu Jiahong poured the last of his magic power into the defensive s.h.i.+eld on his body.
The defensive barrier began to expand outward, becoming a large sphere.
Zhu Jiahong’s plan was to roll down and use the ball-shaped defensive cover to rush down quickly.
This idea was indeed bold, but it was quite suitable for his current situation.
Qin Chuan had already guessed what Zhu Jiahong was going to do when he saw the defensive barrier expanding outward.
This method was indeed feasible, but the problem was whether the defensive barrier could be maintained.
With Zhu Jiahong’s current state, he didn’t have much mana left, and the defensive s.h.i.+eld he activated wouldn’t last long.
It would be dangerous if it broke during the descent and couldn’t be repaired.
“Forget it. He chose this path. I hope it will succeed!” Qin Chuan didn’t think too much about it. Everything had its own destiny.
On the mountain peak.
Zhu Jiahong pushed the defensive cover.
The next second, his entire body rolled down along with the defensive s.h.i.+eld.
The impact of his fall was huge. When he wanted to collide with the blade, huge sparks were created.
From a distance, it looked like an ignited fuse that went from the top of the mountain all the way down.
