Cough cough
The old man coughed twice and continued, “As long as someone can reach the peak, they will be rewarded with a lifespan of ten thousand years and overwhelming power.
However, no one has ever successfully reached the summit. A few days ago, a middle-aged man came and climbed to the top with great courage. Yesterday, the man came down the mountain and said that he had reached the top.
But to gain ten thousand years of life and great power, he needs to open a portal. His power alone is limited, so he needs our help. If we work together to open it, we will also gain ten thousand years of life and great power."
The old man coughed a few times and then said, "Of course we were tempted. According to what he said, we stood in the formation he set up. Who knew that he wanted to kill us and use our blood to increase his strength.
My two grandsons, who did not join in, are now climbing the mountain to chase that man and avenge me.
The four of you, please do me a favor and rescue them. Tell them to bury me under the pines and cypresses they planted and not to worry about me.
The old man said this, looking directly into Qin Tian's eyes, and said in a serious voice, "Are you willing to help me? I have a reward. If you swear to the heaven, I will give you the thing."
After saying this, Qin Tian nodded slightly, "I swear to the heavens that as long as it is still possible, I will save your grandson. If I don't, I will be punished by heaven and earth."
Then the old man took out a green wooden box from his space ring and said, "This is a divine object that was born with the snow mountain. It has always been in my family's hands. However, after so many years and the efforts of several generations, we still haven't figured out what its use is.
Even so, it must be something extraordinary, and it is the most precious thing I can give you."
As he spoke, the old man opened the box. An earth-colored bead lay quietly in the box. It had no light and was nothing special. It looked like a round piece of earth.
The three Chaos people naturally couldn't tell what was so special about this plain-looking bead.
A strange light flashed in Qin Tian's eyes. He could see that the power contained in this bead was enormous. As for why it could not exert its power, it was all because it was incomplete.
Then Qin Tian took the beads and said slowly, "Don't worry, I promised you that I will do it."
With Qin Tian's words, the old man was obviously relieved. After that, he died peacefully.
After the old man left, Qin Tian looked at the scattered corpses and waved his hand. The Emperor Flame ignited, and in just a moment, everything ceased to exist under the Emperor Flame.
This was considered a way to give them some peace. Then, looking at the towering snow-capped mountains in front of them, Qin Tian said slowly, "Let's go, climb the mountain!"
After that, Qin Tian and the other three began to climb the mountain. After ten meters, they could clearly feel that the pressure on their bodies had become heavier and the aura around them began to change. After another twenty meters, the snow became more severe and the pressure began to increase exponentially.
"Try to keep your spiritual power calm and don't resist excessively, otherwise the pressure will become even greater." Qin Tian reminded.
After the words fell, the three Chaos people hurriedly adjusted themselves. According to Qin Tian's words, they adjusted their spiritual power to an extremely peaceful state. This was really effective. They were originally under great pressure, but this really alleviated a lot of it.
By the time they reached the mountainside, the pressure had increased several times, and Chaos and the other two were finding it difficult to hold on.
Qin Tian walked in front, cutting through the wind and snow like a sharp knife. In fact, Qin Tian had already put most of the pressure on himself.
Even so, the three Chaos people found it difficult to hold on, and continued to walk towards the top of the mountain. After only a few dozen meters, they heard the sound of gold and jade clashing from afar.
The sky was full of snow. On the flat land halfway up the snow-capped mountain, two young men were fighting hard against a middle-aged man in the biting wind and snow.
The already cold wind and snow became several times colder under the influence of murderous intent.
When Qin Tian and his companions approached, the swords in the hands of the two young men had broken, and they stood still in the wind and snow. They had already lost their life, but they would not fall down even after death.
As for the middle-aged man, he laughed uncontrollably and wanted to continue climbing the mountain, but when he saw Qin Tian and the others, his murderous intent reached its peak. He just wanted to kill Qin Tian and the others, but it was enough for him to climb the mountain alone. All the treasures could only be his.
The middle-aged man didn't even say a word before he attacked directly. His momentum was already at its peak and his cultivation was extremely profound.
Although it is surrounded by this huge mountain and under heavy pressure, the strength it can exert is a bit outrageous.
But Qin Tian didn't take it seriously at all. As the Xuanyuan Sword was drawn out and retracted, the middle-aged man's head and body were separated, and he was lying in the vast and boundless silver snow-capped mountains.
The bright red of his blood was so tiny that it was covered by the wind and snow in the blink of an eye.
It was as if this person had never died, let alone been reborn, but the bright red blood had indeed fallen on the wind and snow, but it was covered up in the blink of an eye, and the world would no longer remember that such a person had ever lived in the world.
Qi Liansheng couldn't help but sigh, looking at the two young men who were still standing firm, "We are a step too late."
"Maybe this is the best ending." Qin Tian said.
What is life? What about death? The unknown after death is terrifying. If everyone knew that death marks rebirth, the destination is a brand new world, a world of universal harmony, an ideal country, I'm afraid they would rush to be the first to arrive.
It may be difficult to even die at that time. You can't even get a number and you have to follow the rules.
At all costs, you must have acquaintances to help you, ask for help from connections, and use back doors. This is the founding of a new industry.
No matter how you think about it, it's so stupid and ridiculous!
Qin Tian and his companions buried the two young men in the wind and snow. If you look closely, they still have smiles on their faces!
Generally speaking, whether this thing succeeds or not is not that important. What is important is that it is done.
Most people seek results, while a few, almost none, seek the process. Those who seek the process are foolish, while those who seek results are wise. This is the criterion for defining "success".
Is that true!?
It is just the pursuit of difference. Seeking common ground while reserving differences to the extreme is a deeper ignorance.
And most people are happy to do so.
After Qin Tian and his companions reached the top of the mountain, they were surprised to find that the top was no different from the foot of the mountain.
Standing at the top, Qin Tian looked down and saw a magnificent formation emerging in the picturesque scenery.
Qin Tian's eyes couldn't help but flash with surprise. Such a large formation took the entire Phoenix Realm as its framework, and this snow mountain was the center of the formation.
According to what the old man said, this magnificent snow mountain appeared suddenly, so there are two possibilities. First, this formation was built step by step over a long period of time.
The second possibility is that this formation was formed suddenly. In Qin Tian's opinion, the possibility of the former is too low.
Because no one in the entire divine realm can set up this formation. Time is a good excuse, but Qin Tian knows that some things cannot be accomplished in a long time.
It seems that the formation of this large formation was probably done by the owner of the hands behind Qin Tian.
