"There seems to be something wrong with this mountain?"
When Lu Qing approached the towering mountain, he discovered something was wrong.
When I looked at it from a distance before, the mountain peaks were straight and looked like pillars reaching the sky.
But when he got closer, he found that the mountain was made up of sections and the surface was quite flat and smooth. It was actually not a real mountain.
It looks more like the spine of some creature.
But what kind of creature could have a spine that stretches all the way to the sky? How exaggerated would its body be?
Looking at the "mountain" in front of him, Lu Qing was extremely shocked.
Subconsciously, he immediately activated his special ability, wanting to try and see if he could find out any information.
He had tried it before, but didn't get any results, so this time he planned to try it for a little longer.
"Ah Qing, this mountain looks like..."
At this time, Xiao Li hesitated.
"Well, it looks like the spine of some extremely huge creature to me." Lu Qing nodded.
Xiao Li opened his mouth wide: "How big a creature is that?"
"I don't know, but it must be something that we can hardly imagine."
Xiao Li was silent for a while before he said, "Ah Qing, I can vaguely sense that there seems to be a very powerful treasure on this mountain, but I can't sense it clearly."
"Really? That means we've come to the right place."
Lu Qing kept looking at the "mountain" in front of him. After a quarter of an hour, there was still no change.
Just when he thought he could not find out any information and was about to give up.
Finally, a few pieces of information slowly floated out above the "mountain".
[True Witch Bones: The spine of an ancient True Witch that was left after his death.]
[A true witch is a middle-ranking witch, whose status is only below that of a great witch and an ancestor witch.]
[This spine was left behind after the death of a true witch of the witch clan. It was refined by a powerful person in the clan and used to suppress this space, becoming the Trial Mountain.]
[As long as the descendants of the ancient witch clan climb this spine and pass the test of the evil spirit inside, they can obtain the baptism of the true essence in the bones and transform into a witch.]
…
"True witch bones. As expected, this mountain is the spine left behind by a powerful being. And the reason why this space is so heavy is because of the suppression of the true witch bones."
When Lu Qing finished reading the message floating out, he was pleasantly surprised.
In addition to knowing the origin of this towering mountain, what surprised him most was the information revealed in the note at the back.
As long as one climbs up the True Witch's Bone and passes the trials within, one can obtain the baptism of the true essence within.
Although he didn't know how powerful this so-called "real wizard" was.
But just based on the fact that the spine left behind was able to suppress an area of space, he knew that this must be a powerful existence that he could hardly imagine.
The essence left behind is probably an extremely incredible treasure.
"Ah Qing, do you know the foundation of this mountain?"
Xiao Li saw Lu Qing's expression and asked immediately.
It knew that Lu Qing had a very magical ability. As long as he investigated for a while, he could find out the origin of most objects.
"I understand one thing. We may have to climb this mountain later. If you can hold on, you will have a great opportunity. If you can't hold on, you can go into the Lihuo Ding and take shelter for a while." Lu Qing said.
"Is there a great opportunity?" Xiao Li's ears immediately pricked up when he heard it.
"Well, let's go over there."
Lu Qing used his skills to run forward, and soon he arrived at the foot of the mountain where the True Witch's Bones were.
Then he saw that there were quite a few people gathered in several locations in front of him.
He had seen some of these faces before, such as the people from Gongshu's family, and the people from Lanhai Sect and Xuanyuan Sect who had been suppressed by him.
There are more than a hundred people gathered at the foot of the mountain.
But at this time, the situation of these people does not seem to be very good.
Many of them had blood on their bodies, and they sat cross-legged on the ground, breathing heavily and regulating their breathing.
Others looked dazed, and it was unclear what kind of blow they had suffered.
Worse still, they were lying on the ground, completely breathless.
Clearly, a lot has happened here.
Lu Qing's arrival also attracted the attention of the people in front.
When they turned around and saw Lu Qing, many people's expressions changed.
Unexpectedly, this person finally came into the ancient tower.
Especially the people from several sects such as Lanhai Sect and Xuanyuan Sect, they were even more frightened.
After all, not long ago, they were suppressed by Lu Qing, and finally had to sacrifice their martial arts to survive.
Elder Yu is still recovering from his injuries outside and is unable to follow us into the tower.
The expressions of Gongshu Yu and others were also not very good.
Even top-notch Jindan masters like Batian and Shen Zangfeng had slightly changed expressions.
The repressive force in this space is much stronger than that in the secret realm outside.
The restrictions on them have also reached an unprecedented level.
And someone like Lu Qing, whose body is so strong that he is comparable to that of a strange beast, is obviously a big threat to them.
Being watched by so many powerful people, Lu Qing's expression did not change.
He naturally noticed that the people in front of him were wary of him.
But he didn't care, and didn't even say hello. Instead, he walked to the other side and silently observed the real witch's bones in front of him.
After this observation, Lu Qing discovered that the surface of this mountain-sized True Witch Bone was not completely smooth.
There is a huge staircase carved on it that spirals up, as if it was left for people to climb.
I guess this should be the trial mentioned in the note he found.
Seeing Lu Qing observing the mountain in front of him as if no one was around, many people were moved.
Then, a man suddenly walked out and walked towards Lu Qing with several people.
"It's Tyrant. What is he going to do?"
"Could it be that you want to take action to eliminate this threat?"
"Batian is not so stupid, right? He has no grudge against this person, why would he provoke him?"
"Perhaps he wants to invite him to join forces."
"Will joining forces help? You've seen what happened before. Climbing this mountain is not a matter of how many people you have."
Batian's move immediately attracted everyone's attention and they started talking about it.
Of course, most of these discussions were communicated through telepathy.
Otherwise, no one would dare to call Batian stupid to his face.
"My fellow Taoist, I am honored to meet you here."
Batian brought several tribesmen to Lu Qing and bowed.
His gift surprised many people.
Anyone who knows Batian knows that he has always had a very domineering personality.
Except for a top-notch Jindan Daoist master like Shen Cangfeng who is extremely talented and has a high level of cultivation, there are few people he can look at straight in the eye, let alone like this now, where he actually greets them first.
"This fellow Taoist is friendly."
Lu Qing naturally noticed Batian's arrival a long time ago.
Originally, he thought that the other party was looking for trouble. After all, he had witnessed this person's tyranny with his own eyes on the Guanli Peak that day.
Now seeing that the other party was so friendly, I felt a little surprised.
"My name is Batian, and I am the descendant of the Bawang clan. May I know what your name is?" Batian asked politely.
"My surname is Chen, and my given name is Qing."
Lu Qing revealed his pseudonym, but did not reveal his master.
Batian didn't care. There weren't too many cultivators who liked to hide their identities and origins when traveling outside. It was quite normal.
So instead of being annoyed, he praised: "So it was Fellow Daoist Chen. Fellow Daoist Chen showed off his skills outside the ancient tower a few days ago. He treated those guardian beasts as nothing and hunted them at will. His peerless demeanor really amazed me."
"You are too kind, Fellow Daoist. They are just some golden elixir beasts. With your strength, Fellow Daoist Batian, it should not be difficult to deal with them." Lu Qing said politely and modestly.
"If it were in the outside world, I would naturally not take those beasts seriously." Ba Tian laughed, "But this secret realm has great restrictions on us, and I can't be as relaxed as you, Fellow Daoist Chen."
"You are too modest, fellow Daoist."
The two of them were being polite and coy, causing a group of people not far away to look at each other in bewilderment.
For a moment, I was a little confused about the situation.
Lu Qing was also wondering in his heart what this tyrant was up to.
However, if the other party didn't say anything, he wouldn't ask, as he didn't believe that the other party could really keep it to himself.
Sure enough, after the two of them exchanged a few more polite words, Batian finally changed the subject.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Chen, do you want to climb this Bone Mountain?"
"I do have this idea. Isn't this the purpose of you coming here?" Lu Qing did not deny it.
"Yes, we came into this strange space to look for opportunities. This bone mountain is so obvious, it is obviously very likely that it contains opportunities." Batian nodded.
"so?"
"I just want to tell Fellow Daoist Chen that this mountain is not easy to climb. If you go up rashly, you will suffer."
"Oh, why do you think so?" Lu Qing raised his eyebrows.
This time, he was really surprised.
This person came here to tell him about the dangers on the Bone Mountain?
“This bone mountain contains an extremely powerful force of suppression. Once you climb the stairs, the force of suppression you feel will be much stronger than this space.
And with every step you go up, the sealing power will increase a bit, and with every section of the bone mountain you climb, the sealing power will double.
More importantly, this bone mountain contains unimaginable evil spirits.
The evil spirit was enough to condense into substance and transform into various evil beasts, which attacked during the climbing process.
Once you can't stand the erosion of the evil spirit, your soul will be severely damaged and you may even become demented."
Batian explained all the dangers of mountain climbing.
This made Lu Qing even more surprised, and for a moment he was a little confused about this person's purpose.
However, he still bowed seriously and said, "I see. Thank you for telling me."
At the same time, he also understood what had happened to those monks who had dazed expressions and no breath beside them.
Apparently, when climbing the bone mountain, he couldn't withstand the repressive force and evil spirit on it, which caused him to become like this.
"Fellow Daoist, do you still want to climb this mountain even though it is so dangerous?" asked Batian.
"You have to give it a try first, otherwise how do you know if it's really impossible?"
"I have a way to greatly reduce the pressure on Fellow Daoist Chen to climb this mountain."
"Oh, I'd like to hear the details." Lu Qing thought that it had finally arrived, and asked calmly.
“Fellow Daoist Chen’s body is extremely powerful, and it is the strongest among all people in this secret realm. With your strength, it is obviously much easier for you to withstand the repressive force of this bone mountain than for us.
However, facing the evil spirit that is pervasive and can corrode the soul and will, it may not be that easy.
Your Excellency Ba Mouguan does not seem to have any powerful magic weapon, and I am afraid it will be difficult to resist those strange and difficult evil beasts.
How about this, we from the Overlord Clan will lend you, Brother Chen Daoist, some powerful protective magic weapons to help you resist the evil beasts.
But if you can get the opportunity on this mountain, you must share some of it with us.
I wonder what Mr. Chen thinks of Ba's proposal?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned at first, and then they all suddenly realized that this was actually what Batian was planning.
But after being shocked, many people felt moved again.
It must be said that although Batian’s proposal was a bit unexpected, it was actually feasible.
Everyone here has witnessed with their own eyes how strong Lu Qing's body is.
He can kill so many Jindan-level beasts easily and effortlessly with his physical strength alone.
It can be said that Lu Qing's physical strength has long exceeded the imagination of all the strong men present.
If this person were to climb Bone Mountain, his chances of success would actually be much greater than theirs.
If Batian really reached an agreement with Lu Qing, then he only needed to lend out a few magic weapons to be able to share some of the opportunities.
This kind of deal is not too good a bargain.
"Who said that this person can only solve problems with force and has no brains? This mindset should be too flexible."
At one moment, everyone realized that they had been deceived by Batian's usual carefree behavior.
In fact, this person has a very deep mind!
Lu Qing was also surprised by Batian's proposal.
After being stunned for a moment, he smiled and said, "Thank you for your enthusiasm, Brother Batian, but I still want to try it myself first."
"That's fine, Fellow Daoist Chen, feel free to try. My proposal is still valid. If you change your mind, you can come and discuss it at any time."
Upon hearing this, Batian did not force it.
He knew that strong people like Lu Qing all had very firm personalities.
How could he be easily persuaded by just a few words from me?
If it were him, he would definitely try it first before considering ways to cooperate.
He had experienced climbing Bone Mountain before and knew the dangers involved.
So he was very confident that after Lu Qing tried it and realized that the thing was impossible, he would naturally come to him to discuss cooperation.
Therefore, after Lu Qing refused, he did not persuade him too much, but took a few tribesmen and returned to his original position.
When Batian returned, everyone's eyes fell on Lu Qing again.
From the conversation between the two just now, they both knew that Lu Qing was preparing to climb Bone Mountain.
They wanted to see how long this person could last on this mountain of bones.
