In fact, Chu Tian wanted to climb up by relying on his own strength.
But climbing up is not easy in itself, and the gravity here is too heavy. They tried their best and climbed only 500 miles in a whole day. Who knows how high this chain is? They couldn't spend all their time crawling.
He finally understood why Ziyin cast 108 golden men who killed the sky, and why the bodies of the golden men who killed the sky were so tall and deep.
After a short rest, Ying Xiuer smiled and restored all the Sky-Slaying Golden Men to their original forms. They took out the materials and used ropes and wooden boards to build a solid platform between the chest and abdomen of a Sky-Slaying Golden Men that was ten thousand feet tall, and everyone sat on the platform.
"Let's go!" Ying Xiu'er burst into laughter: "Boss Chu, Young Master Chu, you all owe me a favor! You owe Daqin a favor!"
The Sky-Slaying Golden Man moved. He was ten thousand feet tall, or about fifty miles tall. He stretched out his arms, which were thousands of feet long, and easily grabbed the raised runes on the chain. He moved his body upwards, and everyone felt a gust of wind whistling down from the top of their heads. They were being carried by the Sky-Slaying Golden Man, and climbed up nearly a hundred miles in a few breaths.
At such a high speed, the air was flowing violently. The group was unable to mobilize any magic power, nor could they use secret techniques to protect their mouths and noses. Everyone could only sit on the platform in a daze, enduring the freezing cold wind blowing down on their heads. No one could open their eyes or mouths, and their faces were blown into countless wrinkles.
Ying Xiu'er was the first one who couldn't withstand the cold wind. Shivering, she took out a large amount of animal skins from her bracelet and wrapped herself tightly.
Soon, Chu Jie followed Ying Xiu'er's example and took out the thick fur he had obtained from hunting sea beasts a few days ago, and wrapped himself, Yin Youyou, and Shui Bingyu in it. In just a few breaths, his fur was strangely rising and falling, and there was a faint sound of light rain.
Chu Tian widened his eyes and looked helplessly at the huge ball of fur.
The Sky-Slaying Golden Man quickly climbed upwards. Taking advantage of its huge size, the Sky-Slaying Golden Man climbed at an astonishing speed. After just two hours, Chu Tian and his men had already climbed to a height of thousands of miles. Looking down from this height, the huge vortex was like a round plate, quietly suspended under their feet.
The sun, moon and stars seemed to be above their heads, as if they could be plucked down with just a stretch of their hands.
Chu Tian sat on the edge of the platform, holding tightly to a rope used to secure the platform with his right hand. He looked around and muttered to himself, "Interesting, as expected, the entrance to Guixu is the closest place..."
"Here, where this vortex is located, where this chain came out, should be... the center of the earth? Therefore, the sky here is a little farther away from the ground."
"However, compared to the Great Jin, the sky here is still much closer to the ground. So the sun, moon, and stars all look much bigger than they did in the Great Jin. So, what shape should this world be in?"
"The sky is like a ball. Is the world where Dajin is located a flat plate? And here, this is the opposite side of the world where Dajin is located. This boundless sea is actually bulging upwards?"
Chu Tian stretched out his finger and drew a circle on the tablet, then drew a straight line in the circle. He thought for a while, and with the two ends of the straight line as the starting point, he drew a soft arc. He nodded and smiled: "Roughly, this is it."
"Roughly, what is it like?" Ying Xiu'er, wrapped in several layers of thick fur, came over tremblingly and looked down at the pattern drawn by Chu Tian: "What is this?"
There was a gleam in Ying Xiu'er's eyes as she stared at the simple pattern.
"I said, what I drew is a piece of heaven and earth, what do you think, Young Master Ying?" Chu Tian pointed at the simple pattern and said softly: "Of course, it's just my guess, but it may be 70% to 80% reliable. The sun, moon and stars in the sky!"
Ying Xiu'er raised her head thoughtfully, looking at the sun, moon and stars. After a long time, she asked in a difficult tone, "Is it fake?"
Chu Tian pondered for a long time, shook his head, then nodded without saying anything.
Pressing his palm on the platform, Chu Tian flattened the pattern he had drawn with a slap, and said softly: "It's getting colder!"
He took out a leather bag of water from the bracelet.
With a "crack", the clear water in the leather bag froze instantly, and a layer of white frost quickly covered the leather bag.
Ying Xiuer stared at the skin in a daze. Her little face twitched fiercely: "It's so cold? Going up! Wouldn't it be even colder?"
Chu Tian raised his head, looking at the seemingly endless chains above him, and murmured: "Ziyin came here. According to Master Shu, this chain will cause great harm to all people in the Saint Realm and above. Ziyin should be no exception."
"He was able to climb up this chain, probably with the help of the Sky-Slaying Golden Man. But, after being severely injured, how did Ziyin survive? If he can survive, so can we."
Before Chu Tian finished speaking, the Sky-Slaying Golden Man grabbed the chain with one hand and grabbed a large piece of broken ice with a "clang".
Dark blue ice cubes fell from the sky with a crash, smashing into pieces on the body of the Sky-Slaying Golden Man. Large swathes of dark blue cold air, as if it were real, gushed out from the broken ice and fell onto the Sky-Slaying Golden Man.
A thin layer of ice quickly covered the smooth body of the Sky-Slaying Golden Man, and then a grayish-white wind blew out from the gaps between the runes in the chains, silently and with a biting and terrifying chill.
Hu Xiaotian squatted alone on the edge of the platform, looking around curiously.
Relying on the strong body of the demon race, Hu Xiaotian was completely unaware of the cold wind along the way. He did not take this gray and weak-looking cold wind seriously. When he saw a gust of cold wind blowing towards him, he even reached out to grab a handful of it out of curiosity.
With a "hiss", the gentle and soft cold wind blew past, and Hu Xiaotian's palm suddenly turned into a large piece of ice crystal that floated away.
Hu Xiaotian's eyes suddenly froze, and he screamed, "What the hell is this?"
He suddenly retreated from the edge of the platform, and he retreated so hard that he almost bumped into Lao Hei's dragon horns.
You Qianxun looked at the dark wind that was silently surrounding her from all directions, and suddenly screamed: "This is the bone-breaking dark wind! In the ghost world, this is also a first-class vicious thing, which can penetrate the skin and bones, and turn the marrow into ice... If I can still use the ghost energy, I can barely resist it, but now... Death! We are all going to die here!"
A bone-breaking wind blew silently from behind You Qianxun. Hu Dali grabbed You Qianxun's neck and pulled her to his side.
Even though Hu Dali acted in time, the cold wind still brushed past You Qianxun's right shoulder. A large piece of flesh on her shoulder instantly turned into ice crystals and drifted away with the wind.
