This is the only name that came to mind after Zheng Qing looked at the huge and vibrant figure in front of him. He felt like a scholar standing at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, looking up at the truth and the only world.
The "pages" cut by the old man Ruoyu slowly closed behind Zheng Qing and Colma. The summer heat from Bouji Island was also locked on the other end. There was no wind at the foot of the mountain, but it was shrouded in shadow. Although only a divine thought was attached to the edge, Zheng Qing still felt the chill flowing in the air.
This is not the chill caused by temperature changes.
It is the yin energy left in the world by a dead legend.
Just as he felt this unusual breath, Colma had already strolled forward and embarked on the rugged "mountain road". Just as in the eyes of an ant, the rough skin of an elephant is no essential difference from the cracked land of the earth. In the eyes of ordinary wizards, the body of the legendary wizard is a real stone mountain.
This upward "mountain road" is not known as the traces left by the wizards who repaired this body, or the patterns on the robes of this legendary existence, but it is very deserted. Except for him and Colma, there are no other living creatures along the way.
On both sides of the 'mountain road' are rugged rocks, lined up one after another, like the scales on the back of a giant dragon, but the connection is not very tight. Every other section, a fork will appear, with no difference in width, narrowness, and deepness.
If Zheng Qing had to choose, he would definitely not know which path to take.
But the witch leading the way ahead did not hesitate at all from beginning to end, and continued to move forward along the empty and narrow mountain road without any marks.
The witch's pace seems not big, but each step is very far away, but it is not difficult to follow closely with a huge body of "edge type". So while climbing the mountain, Zheng Qing can also take advantage of his taller height to look at the sea of clouds that are getting closer and closer at the end of the mountain road from time to time.
He has seen the scenery on the sea of clouds.
I saw the scenery under the sea of clouds again.
In a short while, he may have to walk into the sea of clouds and feel the scenery in the sea of clouds.
Just thinking about it this way makes people feel a perfect beauty.
The more he moved up, the more chill the "mountain" emitted. Nearly halfway through the journey, Zheng Qing suddenly whispered "ah", which caused the witch in front to stop immediately and looked back.
"What happened?"
Her tone was a bit cautious, after all, the situation on this road was special, and Zheng Qing's identity was also very special.
The boy scratched his head - this action may express a sense of apology when he was done by a normal person, but it seemed particularly creepy when he was doing it on the edge of the hideous image. He felt a little embarrassed: "——Ah, no, it's okay. I just realized that why the school arranged for me to climb the mountain with the edge of the image."
The witch's eyes fell on the edge of a thin layer of frost, and nodded with a very small amplitude.
"Your level is too low."
She gave her opinion very bluntly: "Although your physical strength is very high now, with your current understanding of magic, only by relying on the natural talent of the edge type can we withstand the magic radiation of the legendary wizard and get close to the core area at a close distance... In the future, you will always control the 'Taiyi' yourself. The school will probably transform you a special model for you to go up the mountain."
"Don't you have a battle suit?"
Zheng Qing remembered the dragon-skin lining made by the old woman in Yun Xiangyili.
“That is what you can wear when you control Him.”
The witch retracted her gaze, and her toes slightly slid on a raised bluestone. Her figure moved upwards for a long distance, and the sound continued to pass back: "——It's different from what you think. If you go up, you will know."
As the two continue to rise.
Gradually, Zheng Qing was breathless - this feeling was very wonderful. In theory, he had only one thought on the edge, and he should not have "suffocation" in any case. This feeling was like the concept of "suffocation" directly acting on his soul level.
Illusory, but extremely real.
Going further up, a faint mist began to appear around. Zheng Qing wanted to look back and look down, but the mist around was getting thicker and thicker, while Colma's figure became blurry, giving him a strong feeling, as if once the witch escaped from sight, he would completely lose direction in this fog.
This made him more and more careless and stared at the jumping figure in front of him.
Until she stopped.
The fog around seemed to be extremely rich.
"arrive."
The witch was concise and raised her sleeves, waved her lightly, swept away the fog in front of her, opening up a small clear field of view, revealing a narrow crack in the rock.
The crevices of the rock are not long, about two meters long, and the width is only enough to accommodate one person passing sideways.
Zheng Qing stretched out his hand and gestured at the hole that was not much longer than its palm.
"How do I get in?" he asked a very serious question.
“Go in… like this.”
The witch did not look back, but took a light breath and took a step forward. The moment the toes fell into the crack of the rock, the narrow and long slit seemed to be stimulated. The stone walls on both sides deformed like plasticine and rolled to the sides, and in a moment it expanded to a suitable shape of the witch: "——The setting of this door refers to the 'Xuanpin Gate', which is the first defense measure for the outside world to the core control area of the 'Yuanshi'. Only allowed guests can pass this door. Without permission, they can only break Yuanshi's shell and try to force entry... Well, I have not tried it, so I don't know how high the defense strength of this door is, but it should not be able to stop your blood talisman bullet."
It seemed that he was encouraging Zheng Qing to give it a try.
The boy ignored the witch's instigation.
Instead, he followed her and poked out a toe in a regular manner - the narrow and long crevices of the rock twisted again, spreading rapidly to the point where they could plug the entire "edge-type" - for some reason, Zheng Qing always felt like a big mouth, eating himself little by little.
Behind the cracks of the rocks is a long corridor.
At the end of the corridor, Zheng Qing felt a sudden enlightenment. An empty and spacious hall suddenly appeared in front of him. The depressing atmosphere that began to accumulate from the foot of the mountain disappeared instantly.
Old Man Ruoyu stood at the end of the corridor with his back facing two young men who had climbed up through hardships.
"—Entering the door is like climbing a mountain, because His threshold is too high." The old wizard did not look back, and his voice was a little emotional: "I can only send you here. Going in, the intensity of the entanglement of the qi between different legends will fall out of the safe range, which may cause unnecessary damage. Even projection cannot be done. No legend will allow another legend to touch His heart."
