The people on both sides of the cobblestone road were staring at the man and Li Xiu.

"Do we have a grudge?" Li Xiu asked the man.

"No grudge." The man replied.

"Then why do you want my life?" Li Xiu asked again.

"Seize a chance to climb Changsheng City." The man stared at Li Xiu with a firm gaze and said slowly.

"Oh, if you kill me you can go to Changsheng City?" Li Xiu asked with some surprise. It seemed that Changshengtian was not as beautiful as he imagined. It seemed that it was even more cruel than the outside.

At least he could go directly to the city in the sky, but these people seemed to have no chance to climb the city.

On the rooftop of a dilapidated two-story building in the distance, a masked man and a masked woman were watching the situation on Li Xiu's side.

"Do you dare to bet with me?" the man said lightly.

"How do we bet?" the woman asked.

"Let's bet on whether the new trial-taker can reach Changsheng City." said the man.

"What are you betting on?" The woman frowned slightly.

"If you lose, you will be mine from now on. I will ensure your return to the city and keep you safe. No one will dare to touch you in Changsheng City from now on." said the man.

"What if you lose?" the woman asked, staring at the man.

"If I lose, I will give you a chance to return to the city, and I guarantee that the person won't dare to touch you within three days." said the man.

"Okay, I bet he can get into the city." The woman smiled.

"Just because he has a Shining Spirit?" the man said disdainfully.

"No, it's just because I think he is very strong." The woman said lightly.

"Then wait and see, and don't forget your promise." The man said with a smile.

The woman didn't say anything else, just looked at the two people confronting each other on the street.

The man who was stopping Li Xiu no longer had the patience to say anything else. He thrust out the blood-red spear in his hand suddenly. The dazzling spear pierced Li Xiu's chest and was in front of Li Xiu in almost an instant.

when!

Li Xiu drew out the Fire Lotus Sword and directly cut the spear in half.

The man roared, and his spear turned into an angry sea dragon, rolling towards Li Xiu madly.

Li Xiu sat upright on the pink nightmare, waving the Fire Lotus Sword in his hand casually, shaking off the spear again and again.

No matter how fierce the man's violent spearshot was, it could not hurt even a corner of Li Xiu's clothes.

The man’s marksmanship was good, but unfortunately his level was too low. He should be just a D-level trialist. If Li Xiu wanted to kill him, he only needed one sword.

The man suddenly put away his gun and stepped back, looking at Li Xiu with a pale face: "Why don't you kill me?"

He also realized that Li Xiu's level should be higher than his, and it would not be difficult to kill him, but Li Xiu only defended and did not attack, otherwise he would have died long ago.

"I have a few questions to ask you." Li Xiu said.

"No need to ask. Even if you can't climb up Gyro Mountain, you will still become a part of this place. You will know it then." After saying this, the man turned around and left, disappearing into the slums in a moment.

Li Xiu understood what the man meant. Nine out of ten people here were those who had been invited to Changshengtian in the past but had not been able to climb Tuolu Mountain, or their descendants.

"Changshengtian is really cruel." Li Xiu frowned slightly and continued to move forward riding the pink nightmare.

Although the people in the slums nearby looked eager to try, no one dared to come up and provoke Li Xiu.

"Looks like I won." The woman smiled.

"Don't be anxious, there is still a long way to go." The man said as he jumped down and headed in the direction where Li Xiu left.

The woman followed him down, her expression unchanged.

When Li Xiu arrived at the foot of the mountain, he discovered that the root of the mountain, which seemed to be only slightly connected to the earth from a distance, was much larger than he had imagined. The place where the mountain was connected to the earth was at least a hundred meters in diameter.

However, it is still hard to imagine that such a small area can support the huge mountains and cities above.

After putting away the pink nightmare, I was looking at the mountain, thinking about how to climb up, but suddenly I saw another person walking towards me.

The man was wearing a piece of armor that looked like a medieval knight's heavy armor. There were flashing light patterns on it, and it was obviously a contract.

After he came close to Li Xiu, he rushed up without saying a word, like a running tank. The light patterns on his body became stronger and stronger, burning on his body like flames. The terrifying momentum made people very suspicious. Even a small mountain would be smashed by him.

"The Fire Knight, one of the four generals of Wangsheng Town, why is he here?" The woman frowned slightly.

The man smiled and said, "The Fire Knight was promoted to S-rank not long ago. He has been planning to leave Wangsheng Town and head to Changsheng City. It is a coincidence that a new trial participant has arrived. With the invitation card of the newcomer, he can directly become a member of Changshengtian without being selected. Naturally, the Fire Knight will not miss this opportunity."

"You already knew that the Fire Knight was promoted to S-level and wanted to go to Changsheng City?" The woman looked at the man and said.

"You have to admit defeat. I let you choose first, and you chose the newcomer yourself. You can't blame me for this. Don't worry, you will have your own benefits if you follow me in the future. It's better than being alone and helpless in Changsheng City, right?" the man said with a smile.

"It's hard to say who will win or lose." The woman said coldly.

"A newcomer, do you think he can defeat the Fire Knight?" The man said contemptuously, "If he was really that strong, the chief who brought him into the guild would have sent someone to lead him to the City of Immortality a long time ago. How could he have taken the Path to the Afterlife?"

"Who can tell clearly what's going on in this world?" the woman said calmly.

"Haha, then I wish your dream comes true and that newcomer can defeat the Fire Knight." The man said and looked at the battlefield, but he was stunned when he saw it.

The Fire Knight crashed into Li Xiu like a terrifying tank. Before he reached Li Xiu, a warrior covered in red fluorescence appeared in front of Li Xiu.

The blade flashed, and a huge blood-red crescent blade light slashed towards the Fire Knight.

The Fire Knight roared in anger and crossed his arms to charge towards the bloody crescent blade.

Bang!

The armor and the sword light collided with each other, making a deafening sound. The armor on the Fire Knight's arms was chopped off. The force was so strong that the Fire Knight was shaken back more than ten steps. He sat on the ground with a plop, and blood continued to flow from his arms.

The Fire Knight looked at Li Xiu in horror, and the man in the distance also had a look of astonishment on his face.

"S-level magic spirit... That newcomer actually has an S-level magic spirit..." The man was a little bit unbelievable.

"It seems that I win this time." The woman said and ignored the man and walked towards Li Xiu.

"Spare his life." When Li Zheng was about to order the Jedi to continue attacking, he heard a familiar voice behind him.

Turning around, I saw a plump woman wearing a red leather jacket and leather boots and a bronze mask walking towards me. I immediately recognized her as Sha Chu.

Sha Chu waved to Li Xiu, indicating that Li Xiu should follow her.

Li Xiu put away the Jedi Knight and left with Sha Chu. After the two entered the slums nearby, they quickly disappeared into the intricate shantytown.

After the Fire Knight stood up, he glanced at the direction where Li Xiu's Sha Chu left, gritted his teeth and dived into the slums.

"Why are you here?" Li Xiu looked at the furnishings in the room. Apart from a bed, there was basically nothing else. It was more of a temporary resting place than a residence.

"My Punisher of Good and Evil is gone, and I have no ability to return to Changsheng City. I can only stay here and wait for an opportunity." Sha Chu took off his mask and smiled, "I know you will come, so I will stay in Wangsheng Town and wait for you."

"Do members like you have to log in by yourself every time you come back?" Li Xiu felt that such a rule was simply unbelievable.

"I didn't need to do that before, but unfortunately something happened to the chief I followed before, so now I can only rely on myself." Sha Chu sighed.

"What's going on?" Li Xiu frowned.

"My current situation is very bad. Something happened to the chief who introduced me to the association. The new chief and I had some grievances in the past. Before, everything was fine because the old chief protected me. Now, I am in some trouble." Sha Chu briefly explained the situation.

Strictly speaking, Changsheng City can be considered Changshengtian.

The slum-like place below is called Wangsheng Town. Most of the people living in Wangsheng Town are those who were invited to Changshengtian in the past but failed to reach Changsheng City, as well as the descendants of those who were captured to explore the Gate of Trials.

Of course, there are also some exiled members of Changshengtian.

These people are generally used to explore new trial gates. They can also enter the trial gates at other times, but they need to get gems.

There is no gem mine on Gyro Island, and the gems used are all shipped in from outside, so it is not easy for people in Wangsheng Town to get the gems.

However, some members of Changshengtian will also recruit some trial-takers in Wangsheng Town if they need someone to follow them into the trial gate. This is also an opportunity for those people.

"I have to go back to Changsheng City to take over, but I'm afraid that once I go back, I will have no chance to come out alive, so I can only stay in Wangsheng Town for now." Sha Chu sighed.

"Does the new chief have a deep grudge against you?" Li Xiu asked.

"He had feelings for me before, but I had no interest in him. Does this count as hatred?" Sha Chu said helplessly, "Before, I had the chief to protect me, so he couldn't do anything to me. I originally thought that after I came back this time, I would ask the chief to give me a long-term mission and not return to Changshengtian in the short term. I didn't expect that I had just come back and hadn't returned to Changsheng City, but I heard that something happened to the chief. Now he has become the chief of our group, and things are a bit troublesome."

Li Xiu smiled and said, "You look so attractive, so it's no wonder that people want to commit crimes."

"Hmph, you are good at making sarcastic remarks. Anyway, I am yours now, and you have to help me with this matter." Sha Chu stretched and said lazily.

"Don't act like there's something going on between us. I haven't touched you. We just have a pure boss and employee relationship." Li Xiu said, spreading his hands.

"We can also have something, I don't mind." Sha Chu said with a smile.

"I mind, but I'm not in such a good mood in a place like this." Li Xiu looked at the dirty and messy slums and said, "How do you want me to help you?"

"Which general invited you to join Changshengtian? Can you ask that general for a favor?" Sha Chu asked seriously.

"I don't know either." Li Xiu repeated to Sha Chu what the Lord of Hongsha City had said.

After listening to this, Sha Chu was somewhat surprised and said, "How is this possible? In Changshengtian, only the six chiefs are qualified to invite people to join. If the Lord of Hongsha City is not one of the six chiefs, how can he be qualified to send out invitation cards?"

"I don't know about that. You should know after you enter Changsheng City." Li Xiu paused and continued, "How about you wait for me in Wangsheng Town first. After I enter Changsheng City and figure out what's going on, you can go back."

"I'm afraid it's not possible now." Sha Chu smiled bitterly, "Before, there was another guy who wanted to recruit me into the group, so I used him and the new chief to hold each other back, so I could wait for you to come. I thought you were here, and I would be free. I had already fallen out with him just now, who knew this would happen."

"Then there is no other way, let's go into Changsheng City together." Li Xiu said with a smile.

"You're still laughing?" Sha Chu rolled his eyes at him. "You need to think it over. If you take me into Changsheng City, you will offend a chief and a powerful person in Changsheng City before you even enter the city. Are you sure you still want to take me into the city?"

"Why not? These good things that two powerful people are thinking about are already in my hands. How can I give them up easily?" Li Xiu said with a smile.

"You are the thing." Sha Chu said angrily.

Li Xiu shrugged and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter whether I am a thing or not. What matters is how are we going to climb that mountain now?"

"Didn't you bring your magic armor with you?" Sha Chu asked Li Xiu in confusion.

"No, who knew that we would have to climb a mountain to get to Changshengtian." Li Xiu said helplessly. If he had known earlier, he would have just brought a set of magic clothes with him and would not have had the trouble now.

“What can I say to you?” Sha Chu said helplessly, “Without the magic suit, it will be a bit troublesome to climb the mountain. It is not an ordinary mountain. Even for the trial participants, it is not easy to climb up. Every year, I don’t know how many people from Wangsheng Town want to climb up the mountain, but they die in an accident. Even if they don’t die, they will inevitably lose limbs after falling down.”

"Is that mountain so difficult to climb?" Li Xiu was a little surprised.

Although the mountain looks like a mushroom, it is not easy for ordinary people to climb up from the bottom.

But considering the physical fitness of the trial-taker, it should not be difficult to climb up with the help of some tools.

"When I came here for the first time, it was the chief who picked me up. Later, with the Punisher of Good and Evil, I could fly up by myself. I have never climbed Gyro Mountain. But I heard them say that Gyro Mountain itself has some kind of mysterious magnetic field, which may have changed the gravity on Gyro Mountain. When climbing the mountain, the body will feel a very strong gravity, which is equivalent to climbing the mountain with a weight. Without S-level physical fitness, it is almost impossible to climb up. Therefore, if the trial-takers in Wangsheng Town want to go up the mountain, they must wait until they are S-level before they dare to climb. Many low-level trial-takers want to take a risk, but the results are tragic." Sha Chu said.

"Is there no other way?" Li Xiu also felt that this matter was a bit difficult to handle.

He is only at level C, and Sha Chu is probably at level C at most, or even not even at level C. It would be difficult for two people like them to climb up Gyro Mountain.

Li Xiu thought about it carefully and realized that among his demon spirits, there was no one that could fly.

The Ice Soul Siren can indeed float, but its floating height is limited, and its power is not enough to carry a person into the sky.

"I wonder if the dragon vein spirit has the ability to climb mountains." Li Xiu murmured to himself.

"Now we are both trapped in the Town of Rebirth, but it doesn't matter. How many gems do you have on you? We can go to the Trial Gate first and try our luck. Maybe we can get a flying magic spirit." Sha Chu said after thinking for a while.

"That's a possible solution." Li Xiu thought for a moment and asked, "Is there anyone in Wangsheng Town selling magic equipment? It doesn't have to be high-level, as long as it can fly."

Sha Chu smiled and said, "My great city lord Li, do you think if there is a magic suit like that here, would anyone not use it to fly up? I'll keep it for you to use."

"Maybe he likes challenges and wants to climb up by himself?" Li Xiu said with a smile.

"Don't think about those good things. Think about how to get flying monsters. I know that there are several trial gates that produce flying monsters, but you need luck to get a random admission ticket, and you also need luck to get a monster ring. Are the gems you bring enough?" Sha Chu looked at Li Xiu and asked.

Li Xiu placed his bag of gems in front of Sha Chu: "All the gems I brought are here."

When Sha Chu opened it, he saw that there were only twenty or so one- or two-carat gems inside. They looked quite complete, with rubies, sapphires, topaz, spinels, diamonds and so on, but the number was pitifully small.

"You only brought these few gems with you when you came to Changshengtian?" Sha Chu widened his eyes.

"To be honest, I came to Changshengtian just to take advantage of the situation. Why would I bring so many gems?" Li Xiu said.

"Your idea...how should I put it...it's indeed a beautiful idea..." Sha Chu was speechless.

"I thought those with invitation cards were VIPs, but who knew VIPs are worse than dogs." Li Xiu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Since there are no gems to enter the trial gate, there is no need for flying spirits. We can climb up by ourselves."

"Do you want to climb up with the help of a Jedi Knight? I'm afraid it will be difficult. An S-level demon can only barely protect himself on Gyro Mountain. It's impossible to ask him to take you up, not to mention that there are only two of us." Sha Chu shook his head.

"My Jedi Knight is more than just S-level." Li Xiu said.

"You're not trying to tell me that the Jedi Knight has become a super-spiritual being?" Sha Chu was shocked and his eyes widened in disbelief.

She had spent so much effort and resources before, but only upgraded the Punisher of Good and Evil to S-level, and Super Spirit didn't even dare to think about it.

It has only been such a short time and Li Xiu's Jedi Knight has already reached super spiritual level. This is too fast.
