Lin Tao narrowed his eyes slightly. When they were at the foot of the mountain, the footprints of Xu Yang and others were still very obvious. But as they went further back, the footprints began to fade as they showed signs of moving upwards to the top of the mountain.
Lin Tao looked up and saw that the Thunder Peak was not actually very high, but the mountain was quite steep and the mountain was smooth. After walking up for a distance, Lin Tao realized that the higher he went, the harder it was to find a place to stay.
And this is not the only headache about Thunder Peak.
On the Despair Planet, at a glance, the mountains, the oceans, the water, and even the land are all pitch black. In this case, it is easy for ordinary people to have visual errors if they just look at it for a long time.
After Lin Tao's body was strengthened by the gene-enhancing drug, even his vision was also enhanced. Even so, he might have hallucinations after looking at the black earth in front of him for a long time.
Just as he was thinking this, Lin Tao was suddenly shocked. He quickly looked down and saw that the protruding foothold he had seen before had suddenly disappeared, as if what he had seen before was just a mirage.
"Oh no." Lin Tao's heart sank. At this moment, he felt that he had lost his balance. His body tilted and he actually fell to the foot of the mountain.
Without thinking, Lin Tao suddenly pulled out the metal stick and thrust it hard into the mountain wall. Using the force, he managed to stabilize his body.
"I really don't know how Xu Yang and the others reached the summit so quickly."
When his feet landed on the cliff again, Lin Tao exhaled slowly, turned his head and looked behind him. At this time, he was already seven or eight hundred meters away from the foot of the mountain.
Although this distance is not high, it is much more difficult to come up again.
This was because Leiming Peak seemed to have a unique gravity that made Lin Tao's entire body feel as if it was being oppressed, and his body was much heavier than usual. The fact that he could reach this height in a short period of time was also due to his strengthened body.
I guess it would take an ordinary person at least half an hour to reach his height.
When he looked down at the foot of the mountain and saw that the five people were not chasing him, Lin Tao felt relieved. At the same time, he also clearly understood that the five people would definitely follow him all the time.
Xu Yang has already mentioned that this Thunder Peak is a hidden Thunder Peak. Not many city lords in various places know about this place. Those who can come here must know the situation of the mountain.
Thinking of this, Lin Tao took a deep breath and leaped forward to follow the footsteps.
With the metal stick, the journey up the mountain was much easier. Even if he encountered the previous situation again, Lin Tao could rely on the metal stick to support his body.
After a short while, Lin Tao finally reached the top of the mountain.
Without waiting for his breath to recover, Lin Tao turned around and took a look at the foot of the mountain. From the foot of the mountain to the top, the height was only over 2,000 meters, but this distance was still daunting.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Lin Tao narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw five figures suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain. These five figures moved cautiously, and were advancing to the foot of the mountain leisurely. If there were not some strange rocks on Leiming Peak blocking the view, Lin Tao would have been discovered by the other party long ago.
Before he could confirm the identities of the five people, Lin Tao's face darkened and he quickly flashed and disappeared on the spot.
"Zhuofan, look at those footprints, they seem to be heading towards the mountain." Ada frowned and raised his head to look towards the mountain.
"Huh?" Ada let out a light exclamation. He seemed to notice a figure at the top of the mountain, but as soon as he noticed it, the figure disappeared on the spot.
"What's going on?" Adamson asked.
"I seemed to see someone." Ada had just finished speaking, and then hurriedly explained: "Just now, but when I just noticed it, the figure suddenly disappeared."
"It should be the guy from before." At this time, Zhuo Fan also raised his head. After taking a look at the top of the peak, he said calmly.
"I think the footprints of the Seventh Prince and his men seem to have reached the top of the mountain. Let's go up immediately." Hole said repeatedly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, He Mingyang laughed coldly a few times, which immediately made Huo Lai very dissatisfied: "He Mingyang, what do you mean?"
"Holley, don't talk too much." However, this time Adamson did not cover up for him anymore and shouted in a deep voice.
"Brother, he..."
"Okay." Adamson shook his head.
Except He Mingyang, the other four people in their group have never been to the Planet of Despair. To be honest, after arriving at Thunder Peak, they may still have to rely on He Mingyang.
It was for this reason that Adamson spoke out to stop it.
He Mingyang snorted coldly, a sinister look flashing in his eyes.
"He Mingyang, the man before was obviously not slow, but why did he just reach the top when we got here?" Zhuo Fan's heart moved and he suddenly asked out loud.
Although they were moving slowly, they were not that slow. Moreover, at first glance, the Thunder Peak did not seem to be very high, no more than three thousand meters at most. Not to mention a physical telepath who had used body-strengthening potions, even an ordinary-level telepath could easily climb to the top in a minute or two.
But Lin Tao had only reached the top of the mountain at this time, which made Zhuo Fan ponder in his heart.
As an analyst, the information Zhuo Fan obtained was limited to the star-shattering belt and the thundercloud layer, but there was no record of the situation inside the Planet of Despair. It seemed that there was a special force behind the scenes prohibiting the emergence of relevant information.
Therefore, after receiving invitations from the third and ninth princes of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, he decided to come and planned to enter the Planet of Despair in person to understand the inside story.
Now, I have come, but many things are different from what I imagined, like the black earth, the black sea, the black swamp area, and even the black Thunder Peak in front of me.
"Thunder Peak is often struck by thunder, and the entire mountain has generated a small amount of special magnetic force, which is equivalent to enhancing gravity. People who come to Thunder Peak will be affected by this magnetic force when they climb to the top of the mountain."
"The more thunder strikes a mountain, the greater its magnetic force. The gravity of some thunder peaks is even dozens of times that of our planet," said He Mingyang.
"Although this Thunder Peak is not high, but..." He Mingyang paused here, he looked at the other four people, and then his eyes fell on Huo Lai again.
Although Holley had some problems with him along the way, his earth-based telekinetic power could not be ignored.
"But what?" Seeing his eyes fall on him, Holly snorted and started yelling.
Everyone's eyes fell on He Mingyang.
"If we go up the mountain using the usual method, then we can only rely on our own abilities like that guy. However, in this case, the only people who can reach the top in a short time are me and this guy. I estimate that it will take some time for you three to reach the top," He Mingyang said, pointing at Huo Lai.
"Explain it more clearly." Zhuo Fan said repeatedly.
"The black color of the Despair Planet will affect your vision, and the magnetic force of Thunder Peak will make it difficult for you to climb. Although this Thunder Peak is a hidden Thunder Peak and has been struck by lightning for a shorter time, its magnetic force also makes its gravity reach about ten times. I estimate that it will take you at least half an hour to reach the top of this Thunder Peak."
He Mingyang said.
"More than half an hour?" Ada frowned. "It took more than half an hour to get there, and the man disappeared without a trace."
"That's right. Even if we wait until we reach the top, they are afraid that they will take the thunder stone and run away from the other side." Adamson also frowned.
Zhuo Fan stared at He Mingyang without saying a word.
"His telekinetic power may be able to help us." After a pause, He Mingyang frowned slightly: "However, he is not an earth-type person who can drill into the ground, so he needs your help."
He Mingyang pointed at Ada.
Just when Adamson and the others were puzzled, Zhuo Fan had already understood. He smiled and said, "You mean, we can use Holley's earth-related thoughts to create a rock layer, and then let Aida's water-related thoughts push us up?"
He Mingyang nodded.
"Okay, let's do it." Holley moved the fastest. He slapped the ground with his hands, and the black soil on the ground suddenly began to wriggle. In a moment, a huge rock block that was close to the mountain wall had formed under everyone's feet.
Ada was not slow either. Just as the rock block took shape, he waved his hand and a wave also formed under the rock block, pushing the rock layer upwards.
Even so, after climbing a distance, Ada suddenly felt a sense of effort, and his pupils contracted suddenly.
Not to mention him, even the people standing on the rocks also noticed the so-called special magnetic influence of He Mingyang.
"Is this the special magnetic force of Thunder Peak?" Zhuo Fan closed his eyes and felt it.
"This force seems to be different from gravity." Adamson seemed to have fought against a telekinetic master who controlled gravity before, and he immediately noticed the difference in this magnetic force.
He Mingyang didn't say anything, and neither did Huo Lai. Although he did not control the climb of the rock layer, as he rose, he could vaguely sense a force that seemed to be pulling the rock back to the ground.
This power made Holley extremely embarrassed. After all, he was only a third-level telekinetic master.
…
"Huh? What is this?"
Lin Tao looked at the top of Thunder Peak and saw darkness everywhere, as if countless black stone pillars blocked his sight. Not to mention Xu Yang and others, he couldn't even see clearly what was ahead.
"how so?"
Lin Tao was anxious and flew to a black stone pillar.
"This feeling..." Suddenly, Lin Tao stretched out his hand and was about to touch the black stone pillar.
"Lin Tao, don't." At this moment, Zhe's voice sounded, stopping Lin Tao and causing his hands to pause.
"What's wrong?" Lin Tao asked, frowning.
Lin Tao did not feel any sense of crisis from these black stone pillars. Instead, they gave him a familiar thought from the bottom of his heart, as if these black stone pillars had some special connection with him.
