Chapter 997 Entering the Mountain
Two days later, the second day of the second month.
Auspicious clouds cover the sun and the sky is full of colorful clouds.
Before dawn, people within hundreds of miles around Fangcun Mountain had discovered this strange phenomenon.
The mountain top, which was usually covered with white clouds, seemed to have suddenly turned into a pile of colorful brocade, with thousands of auspicious auras in the clouds. It was a magnificent scene that had never been seen since ancient times.
Countless people walked out of their homes and looked at the strange lights from afar, exclaiming in amazement, thinking that it was the day when the dragon raised its head and a lucky dragon really was born.
Many people bowed their heads and knelt towards the Fangcun Mountain, praying to the dragon god for blessings and to eliminate disasters and provide refuge, looking extremely pious.
Even Wei Changtian and Xu Suisui, who had reached halfway up the mountain, couldn't help but look up at the myriad auspicious clouds above their heads, their eyes filled with shock.
That's right, they used the "avoidance talisman" to sneak out of the city in the middle of the night yesterday and went hiking.
It took us half the night to reach the halfway point of the mountain, which was enough to show how high Fangcun Mountain is.
As the two of them sat on a rock to rest, this exaggerated scene appeared almost instantly .
Looking up at the colorful clouds covering the sky, Xu Suisui said in a daze: "It seems to be true."
"Um."
Although Wei Changtian was also surprised, he quickly came to his senses and slowly stood up.
"Okay, stop looking."
"If it's true, Chu Xianping and Qin Zhengqiu will probably be here soon."
"We have to get to the top of the mountain before them."
"good"
Nodding, Xu Suisui also stood up, allowing Wei Changtian to carry her on his back, with her hands tightly clasped on the latter's chest.
"Wei Changtian"
"What's wrong?"
"You, your hand is too far back."
"???"
“.”
With force on their feet, the two of them quickly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a few fallen leaves slowly floating in the air.
The auspicious clouds on the top of the mountain became denser and denser, and there seemed to be flashes of lightning among them.
Almost two hours later, Wei Changtian finally reached the top of Fangcun Mountain carrying Xu Suisui on his back.
Wei Changtian didn’t know how high the altitude here was, but judging from Xu Suisui’s pale face and the extremely strong mountain wind around them, even if it was not as high as Mount Everest, it would probably not be much different.
Because the air was too thin, the entire mountaintop was bare. Although there was no snow, there was no grass or trees either. There were only messy boulders and strong winds.
Of course, as a second-rank warrior, this environment is no different from being on flat ground for Wei Changtian.
But Xu Suisui is not so good.
Even though she had anticipated this situation and had prepared a jade pendant that could "replenish qi and dispel cold", the lack of oxygen and extreme cold still made her very weak, and her lips turned a little purple.
"Rest here for a while. If you can't hold on any longer, take some pills."
After finding a relatively hidden pile of rocks and placing Xu Suisui in a leeward place, Wei Changtian handed over a small bottle of pills.
Given Xu Suisui's current situation, he doesn't have to worry about the latter running around.
"I'm going to go inside the cloud and see if I can find out what caused this strange phenomenon."
Since there are auspicious clouds, it proves that the "secret of ascending to heaven" is most likely true.
Although there were no more strange phenomena besides the auspicious clouds, who knows, the opportunity might be in the clouds? If I could get it first, wouldn't I not have to meet Chu Xianping and Qin Zhengqiu?
Even though he knew the possibility was very low, Wei Changtian still decided to "go to heaven" to take a look first.
Xu Suisui just said "hmm" softly, and then watched Wei Changtian rise into the sky and fly straight towards the clouds that were more than a hundred feet above the ground.
"call!!"
The biting cold wind whistled through the cracks in the rocks. Xu Suisui wrapped himself in his robe and kept his eyes on the colorful clouds.
Normally, such a blessing should give people a feeling of "excitement" or "reverence".
But maybe it was because the environment on the top of the mountain was too harsh, Xu Suisui felt more and more uneasy the more he looked.
It was as if these clouds were not a blessing from heaven, nor were they meant to help people ascend to heaven, but rather a huge conspiracy.
Shaking his head, Xu Suisui tightly grasped the small porcelain bottle, called up the system interface in his mind, and glanced at the string of numbers at the top.
2600 points.
There is no doubt that Xu Suisui is now much "richer" than Wei Changtian.
How she managed to save so many system points, perhaps only she herself knew.
But there is no doubt that this is not enough to exchange for a real dragon's forehead scale.
Even adding Wei Changtian's remaining points was not enough.
In fact, according to Xu Suisui's original plan, if she waited a few more months, she would be able to save up about 5,000 points.
It’s a pity that this “accident” came too suddenly, and now she can no longer achieve this goal.
However, if necessary, she could still exchange some items such as "Tianyuan Dan" and "Divine Strike", which might be able to help Wei Changtian a lot. "Huh!!!"
Another gust of cold wind blew into his clothes. Xu Suisui curled up into a ball and waited silently.
An unknown amount of time had passed, but just when she felt her consciousness becoming a little fuzzy and was about to take a pill, Wei Changtian finally came down from the clouds.
"How about it?"
Xu Suisui suddenly regained some energy and quickly raised his head and asked, "What's in the clouds?"
"Nothing."
Wei Changtian landed beside her, looking a little puzzled: "There were nothing but clouds, and I flew up for about a few dozen meters before I got out."
"Out?"
Xu Suisui was stunned: "What do you mean?"
“It just flew out of the clouds.”
Wei Changtian frowned and explained: "These colorful clouds are only a hundred meters thick at most. Above that, there is nothing but clear sky."
"More importantly, the concentration of true energy in the cloud is no different from that outside."
"I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but it feels like someone has placed a colorful cloud here."
Sitting down next to Xu Suisui, Wei Changtian looked up again with a strange look in his eyes.
The former also remembered the feeling he just had, and felt even more uneasy for a moment.
Of course, these might just be what she and Wei Changtian were overthinking.
After all, no one had ever seen the "secret of ascending to heaven" before, and no one knew what it should be like.
But if this is really a conspiracy, what exactly does the person behind the scenes want to do? Xu Suisui shook out a small pill from the porcelain bottle, raised his head and swallowed it, and felt his mind instantly cleared up a lot.
She was just about to think carefully about what was wrong, but the next moment she heard a very distant and dull bang.
"boom"
"Boom, boom, boom."
From the first sound to the continuous sounds, waves of loud noises came from the bottom of the mountain and never stopped since then.
Wei Changtian and Xu Suisui's expressions changed and they looked at each other silently.
There is no doubt that at this moment in Fangcun Mountain, Chu Xianping and Qin Zhengqiu have already started fighting.
