Chapter 999
Xiao Murong was confident that her Divine Wood Body should be able to withstand the blow from the wind. With each step she took, an energy came from the sole of her feet, keeping her feet glued to the ground. She didn’t say anything else and began climbing the mountain steps by steps. She was quite fast and confident.
“What are you doing? Hurry up!” Xiao Murong shouted with a smile on her face as she looked back at Yi Tianyun. Yi Tianyun just smiled and took a step faster to catch up to Xiao Murong, and every single step he took was equally confident.
As they progressed higher into the mountains, the wind blew stronger as well. The wind blew from every angle and was so strong that it practically blew away anyone that tried to reach the top. It was to the point that it was difficult to look up to the top of the mountain.
Yi Tianyun’s current position was estimated at 10.000 meters from the summit. It wasn’t too far, but it definitely would take some time to reach the top. Especially he’d have to climb back up again if he slipped and fell. Yi Tianyun had thought about flying, but as the wind grew stronger, he knew that it would just be harder for him to climb the mountain by flying.
“AAAAAHHHHHHH…” another scream was heard from the side, definitely another fallen cultivator. There was no way to stabilise himself in the air as the wind was too strong! At the same time, the cultivators from the forest have been waiting and ready to strike anytime!
Fortunately for this cultivator, he managed to stabilise himself in the air before he reached the ground! He landed firmly on the ground and, at the same time, pulled out a long sword and started to look around cautiously. Clearly, he knew what the lurking cultivators thought, and he didn’t want to fall victim to anyone of them.
The cultivators in the forest themselves were restless, but they didn’t rush to attack the cultivator as they knew that an enemy that still had their fighting will couldn’t be underestimated. So, they thought it was better to wait for another unfortunate one instead of attacking this person head-on.
The cultivators finally sighed in relief as he noticed that no one was rushing him, so after a short rest, he continued to climb the mountain. The Divine Wind Valley itself was already dangerous enough, but it was becoming more dangerous as the vulture was waiting inside the forest!
Yi Tianyun just shook his head and kept climbing as he couldn’t care less about those people.
Through his observations, Yi Tianyun found out that the mountain itself was divided into nine levels. Each kilometre was counted as one Level, and the two participants that Yi Tianyun saw slipped and fell earlier were from the 7th Levels.
Now Yi Tianyun was at the 6th Level, and Xiao Murong was almost at the 7th Level. They didn’t have any problems so far, and Xiao Murong was even more impressive as she kept her step steady the entire time. She really was like a steady tree that had its root deep inside the ground!
“Come on! Why are you so slow!” Xiao Murong waved at Yi Tianyun.
“Relax, I will catch up!” Yi Tianyun said with a smile on his face. They quickly climbed further, eventually reaching the 7th Level, where many cultivators were blown away. The hardest part began here, so many cultivators rested up at the end of the 6th Level. They wanted to make sure that their power was enough to climb up the 7th Level and the rest of the way, as they knew that there was no place to rest up there.
Yi Tianyun and Xiao Murong’s appearance at the end of 6th Level brought smirks to some cultivators’ faces as they saw that Yi Tianyun and Xiao Murong didn’t stop at the end of 6th Level, and they thought they knew what happened to overconfident people like them.
“Why don’t we observe those two falls? We can make a bet to see which one falls first too if everyone agrees!” a cultivator that rested on the end of 6th Levels said with a smirk on his face.
“Sure! I am down! Every newbie always does this, they are overly confident of their skills!” Another cultivator said while snickering. In fact, all the other cultivators shook their heads as they also thought that Yi Tianyun and Xiao Murong were overly confident!
At the same time, Sima Kong and his groups finally reached the foot of the mountain and saw Yi Tianyun and Xiao Murong climbing the mountains quickly.
“Divine Wind Valley is a tricky place. I suggest that you watch your step. Especially after you got close to the 7th kilometre! That is the hardest part, after all!” Sikong Ma explained to his group. When he saw that Yi Tianyun and Xiao Murong didn’t have any intention to stop, Sikong Ma immediately turned toward Yuan Tianyou.
“They don’t have any intention to stop. There is a high chance that she will fall, and that is your time to shine! There will be many people waiting for her at the bottom, and that is your time to save her from harm. She would definitely adore you afterward!” Sikong Ma said confidently. He then patted Yuan Tianyou’s shoulder to encourage him.
Yuan Tianyou looked around, and he immediately got excited. This place was indeed a huge opportunity for him to seize Xiao Murong’s heart. A girl always fell for a man that saved her life! If he saved Xiao Murong, their relationship would undoubtedly get better.
“This is perfect!” Yuan Tianyou said as he observed Xiao Murong from below.
Meanwhile, Xiao Murong quickly climbed to the 7th Level, and Yi Tianyun followed close behind. Once Yi Tianyun reached the 7th Level himself, the wind speed quickly increased several times over the previous levels.
“Look out!” Xiao Murong shouted as a hurricane smashed the side of the mountain.
“The wind is getting even stronger!” Yi Tianyun shouted. He didn’t have much problem with the wind, but he was a little bit worried about Xiao Murong.
“The wind here was pretty strong, so don’t get blown away!” Xiao Murong said as she was a little bit worried about Yi Tianyun.
“Don’t worry about me! Just don’t get blown away yourself!” Yi Tianyun smiled confidently. He had Heaven Shaking Divine Secret Art with him, and it was impossible for him to be blown away by some wind!
