Chapter five hundred and sixty with crooked rhythm

Climbing up the mountain, it gets colder and colder as we go higher, the cold wind howls, snow gradually appears, and then frost covers the ground. There is no way to go up the mountain. Climbing on the slippery ice and frost makes it a bit difficult to climb up the mountain.

Originally, this situation was not a problem for people like You Xiao. He only needed to use Qinggong to cover a distance of 100 meters. However, now his cultivation has been restricted and his abilities have been suppressed to the extreme. As a result, even climbing up the mountain has become difficult.

It is difficult, especially climbing in such an alpine and cold environment. It is also a great test for physical strength, and physical exhaustion can be said to have skyrocketed.

But for Yunjing's physique, this was not a problem. If he was willing, he could even jump up the mountain as fast as a cannonball, but he didn't do that because there was no need. Just like You Xiao

, seems normal, but in fact it is not normal anymore, and it is a bit eye-catching. After all, he is still carrying a sledgehammer.

The two climbed up a steep slope dozens of meters high, and what appeared in front of them was a rare flat open space sheltered from the wind. Standing here, You Xiao couldn't help but exhale a breath of white mist, rubbed his arms and said with a grin: "Hey,

I'm a bit cold and tired. I don't remember how long it's been since I felt like this. My cultivation is restricted. It's so uncomfortable. I don't even want to go up. This feeling is no different from ordinary people. It's really confusing."

"Where do all these emotions come from? Don't you think this is actually pretty good?" Yun Jing said calmly, carrying the hammer. The two of them came here together, but he didn't blush or breath.

While sighing inwardly that Yun Jing's physique was terrible, You Xiao asked in astonishment: "Why did Brother Dahamui say this?"

"This is not simple, because no matter how high the cultivation level is, everyone originally came from ordinary people, so returning to this state now is equivalent to walking the original path all over again. In this way,

It is equivalent to a huge benefit for improving one's own strength." Yunjing opened his mouth carelessly, looking like you can't think of things that even a fool can think of.

Having said that, Yunjing actually reminded You Xiao that this was a rare opportunity, but he didn't say it so directly. Whether he can understand it or not is none of his business. The other party is not a child.

Even if you don’t eat, you can drink it hard.

Hearing this, You Xiao's eyes flashed thoughtfully, recalling his own martial arts journey. Along the way, he struggled many times with the fact that he had not laid a good foundation in the past, so that it is now more and more difficult to improve, and now he has returned to

Initially, wouldn’t there be an opportunity to continue to polish and lay a solid foundation?

His heart suddenly became enlightened, and he couldn't help but look at Yun Jing and said: "Thank you Brother Sledgehammer for the reminder."

At the same time, You Xiao felt a little weird. He always felt that those words he said before should not be said by someone like Wang Dachui. Is it a coincidence?

"You're so good, why are you writing about me?" Yunjing said with a 'bewildered' look on his face.

I must be overthinking it, You Xiao was confused, shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, let's take a rest and continue going up the mountain."

After saying that, he walked directly to the side and started practicing some basic boxing and kicking skills. He was not resting at all, but was further consuming his energy.

Yunjing didn't say anything. He could seize the opportunity to improve himself, so there was no need to interrupt him.

In fact, after Yunjing reminded him, his mind quietly observed that many people who came up the mountain thought of this and seized this opportunity to continue polishing and improving their basic physique. However, people who realize this are very selfish.

, I have no intention of sharing it with others at all. Even if I face other people’s jokes and waste my energy by practicing basic exercises, I don’t have any reaction. I’m probably still calling the other person a fool.

After resting for a while, You Xiao blushed and panted with hot sweat after completing a set of boxing and kicking skills. Not only did he not feel tired when he was panting, but he said cheerfully: "It's so good, I haven't been so good for a long time, brother Sledgehammer, don't ask why,

If you have time, just practice basic boxing and kicking, and you will know the benefits when the time comes."

He actually reminded Yunjing in turn, and Yunjing promised to give it a try if he had time, but he had no intention of doing so. After all, he had reached the ultimate level in every step of his previous martial arts journey, and there was no need to do it again. Anyway,

It is impossible to improve again.

Considering the terrifying physique of 'Wang Dachui', he didn't take it seriously, and Youxiao didn't force it.

Next, they continued to climb up, and soon they saw a corpse. It was the first corpse they had seen since going up the mountain.

It was a middle-aged man who had been dead for a long time. His body had already been frozen into an ice sculpture. The fatal injury was caused by someone piercing his heart with a sharp instrument.

You Xiao actually recognized this person and said in surprise: "It's Kuangdao Zhangshu. This person originally had late-stage innate cultivation and was very famous in Yunzhou, but he died here."

"In this way, this person's death is sad, but it is normal. Nowadays, the cultivation of people who go up the mountain has been suppressed to the extreme, and they cannot display their abilities. Under the huge contrast, he died at the hands of someone who was much weaker than himself.

It's not surprising in my hands, but it's just a bit frustrating to die like this," Yun Jing said.

His face darkened, You Xiao said: "We have to be careful next time. Even Kuangdao Zhangshu died so silently, so we have to be vigilant at all times, just in case we die in the hands of some unknown person."

That’s what I call crying without tears.”

"Yes." Yun Jing nodded and did not refute.

Then they met more dead bodies along the way, both men and women. Some were people with unknown names, and some were originally famous. These people died in various strange ways, including those who were poisoned, those who died in sneak attacks,

Some people were attacked and hacked to death, and others looked like they were thrown to death. They even saw a person who was directly killed by the cold...

The higher you go up the mountain, the colder it gets. Even simple survival in the harsh environment is a big test. It is normal to be frozen to death.

In addition to corpses, they also saw many living people. Not everyone who came up the mountain would go to the top of the mountain. Those people were scattered everywhere and were busy working on their own. Yunjing and the others had not come into contact with each other. After all, they were not familiar with each other. It would be fatal if there was a conflict.

things.

In fact, the living people Yunjing and the others encountered did not go to the top. The reason can probably be guessed. They were either unintentional, or they simply came down after failure, or they simply could not withstand the harsh environment above. The reason why

The reason for not completely leaving the mountain is because those people are seizing this rare opportunity to solidify their foundation all over again. After all, they don't know when this environment that restricts cultivation will disappear.

There are people who stay on the mountain, and naturally there are people who come down the mountain, and there are also people who come up the mountain, but there is almost no interaction between people who are not familiar with each other. When they meet, at most they just look at each other from a distance, and they part ways without any malicious intent on the surface.

, if anyone wants to find trouble, there is nothing they can do, just have a fight, life or death.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Yun Jing and the two arrived at the top of the mountain.

This place is actually an extremely open flat land, the size of several football fields, and the ground is made of ice that has been frozen for who knows how many years.

Standing on the mountain, the blue sky seems to be within reach, and the white clouds are at your feet. Looking into the distance, anyone will have a heroic attitude of seeing all the mountains at a glance.

But the environment here is extremely harsh. The raging cold wind is like a knife. It hurts the body. It is difficult for people with unstable legs to stand here. Even when Yunjing and the others came here, they saw a man on the cliff.

The edge was blown down by the strong wind, and after a quick scream, there was no sound.

In addition to the biting cold wind, the temperature here is so low that the breath turns into ice. Even Yun Jing and You Xiao's eyebrows and hair are covered with frost formed by the breath.

"Damn it, with your cultivation restricted, this place is simply not suitable for people. It's freezing to death." You Xiao complained immediately after reaching the top of the mountain, his voice trembling slightly as he kept rubbing.

arm.

For Yunjing, although the environment here is harsh, it does not have any impact on him. It is just drizzle, but he still agreed: "Yes, this place is really uncomfortable. Let's take a look. If there is no excitement, we will just leave."

While talking, Yunjing was also looking around.

Since this is the final location for the battle of ten thousand swords, of course it is impossible for the two of them to be the only ones here. The fact is that before them, a large number of people had gathered here, at least two to three thousand, and they were scattered in twos and threes in this huge

Everywhere on the mountaintop platform.

After all, Yunjing is not a member of the martial arts world. He doesn't know anyone at all. The only one he knows is Song Mingdao who is alone. But for an old martial artist like You Xiao, there are many people he sees.

They are all worthy of their names. It can be said that there are many innate realms of true artistic conception, but now everyone is at the same level in a sense.

In the center of the huge open space on the top of the mountain, there is a ring with a diameter of more than 100 meters, which is several meters higher than the ground. The ring definitely did not appear recently. It is probably the product of the glory days of Burial Sword Mountain. It is a solid

The unmelting ice platform has been frozen for countless years in this extremely cold climate. It can be said to be harder than steel.

It was obvious that many people had fought in the ring before. Even though the ring was as solid as steel, the traces caused by sharp weapons could still be seen vaguely. However, there were more bloodstains on the ring, and the ice surface was stained with a layer of blood.

It looks shocking, and I don’t know how many people have left their blood on it.

When Yunjing and the others came to the top of the mountain, they didn't attract much attention. Occasionally, their eyes fell on them and they quickly looked away. Only a few people who had witnessed Wang Dachui's true artistic conception of hammering to death a few days ago had their eyes on them.

After staying for a while longer, the most he could say was that these two people were here too.

At this time, there was a swordsman in blue shirt standing on top of the ring. He looked to be in his thirties and had a stern face. He stood in the middle of the ring, letting his clothes rustle in the biting cold wind.

He was concentrating with his eyes closed, seemingly unaware of the sights falling on him from all directions around him. There was an ancient long sword stuck beside him, with an eight-sided sword and a bluish edge, but there was this complicated ancient simplicity on the sword.

pattern.

"It's actually him, Xie Yunlan, who is known as the Master of Life-Destroying Swordsman in the world. This person is used to being a loner. He has a mid-level cultivation of the True Illusion. Rumor has it that his life-seeking swordsmanship is extremely powerful. I don't know exactly how powerful it is. Anyway, the rumors say

It is said that he has killed more than one master of the late stage of True Reality with his life-seeking swordsmanship. What is he doing now? Waiting for others to challenge him?" After You Xiao looked around for a moment, he turned his attention to Qing Qing on the ring.

The swordsman in shirt said.

Yun Jingxin said that although Youxiao's cultivation level was not high, he was well-informed and could actually popularize some information about the blue-shirted swordsman. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "That's probably true. It's just that this person's abilities are obviously extraordinary."

, No one has come up to challenge him yet. In your words, his cultivation was originally in the middle stage of the true artistic conception, but he has a remarkable record. Even if his cultivation is suppressed now, he is still an extremely powerful ruthless character."

"Whatever, we're just here to join in the fun. We have no intention of going on stage anyway, but there's no point in it. Just keep waiting. I don't want to stay in this damn place any longer," You Xiao said with a breath of air.

Yun Jing laughed softly and said: "Don't be anxious, the good stuff always comes later."

Every location on the top of the mountain is similar. There is no comfortable place. They chatted and stopped looking for a good place. They just found a location and waited to watch the show.

During the short time he came up the mountain, Yun Jing also secretly observed through his mind, and roughly understood what was going on at the moment from people's small chatter.

How should I put it, the so-called ten thousand swords fighting to seize the opportunity actually has no rules at all. If there are rules, it is to go to the ring, go up, defeat the people in the ring, and then defend the ring to meet the challenges of others. Of course

, when you are guarding the ring, you can also tease the people below. If they don't accept the challenge, that's another matter. Those who don't accept the challenge are equivalent to voluntarily giving up this opportunity.

In short, everyone secretly said that the one who finally stands on the stage is the one who gets the chance. As for whether the final result will be like this, it is unknown. Anyway, the possibility is the highest.

From Yunjing's heart, he also felt that there was a high probability that the Emperor's Sword would appear in the hands of the last person standing in the ring. After all, the Emperor was of course the one who faced any difficulties in the world. If he did not have the will to overcome any difficulties and adjustments,

How can one be called the Son of Heaven because of his talent?

Gu Qi

But there is a troubling problem, that is, every defender has to face one round of battle after another. No matter how capable a person is, if his cultivation is limited,

Can you still stand on it after the wheel battle?

So in fact, it is normal for many people who are interested in opportunities to wait and see and not go on stage. Wait until the last moment to go on stage and defeat the champion. While everyone is watching, you can also get opportunities. What a great start?

The third prince of Dali who was adding fuel to the flames had obviously never been on the stage. He was wearing a mask and watching with cold eyes. While obviously waiting for the opportunity to come, he was also observing the strength and means of everyone who came here during this period.

The same goes for Song Mingdao. He stayed alone, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed slightly, the inferior long sword lying across his knees, and he remained motionless despite the cold wind.

There are many people like them. Don't look at Xie Yunlan. He is standing in the ring with great majesty at this time, but he has not yet stepped into a truly powerful role. He probably won't be majestic for long, and it is still unclear who will win in the end.

"How long will this take?" You Xiao said tangledly, wanting to leave, but unwilling to come and see nothing happening.

Yunjing said calmly: "Who knows, I guess the results will come out in a day at most. Don't forget, the scope of the special rules covering the entire Burial Sword Mountain ruins is slowly shrinking, and it is getting closer and closer.

The speed of shrinking in the end is faster. We have traveled so many places in the past few days. Looking from all directions, the final range is right here. I think when the scope of the rules is only the arena, the so-called opportunity will finally be revealed."

"Yes, but there's still one day left. It's a whole day. I don't know if I can last that long in this damn place," You Xiao said in confusion again.

Shrugging his shoulders, Yunjing said: "Persevere, so many people are insisting. This is also a test. If you can't persist even with this difficulty, what chance can you talk about? You must know that going down the mountain will most likely mean giving up voluntarily."

"Hey, if that's the case, we don't have any chance, why don't we go down the mountain to find a comfortable place to stay, and then come back up when the time is up?" You Xiao said with his eyes shining.

Smiling, Yunjing said: "Of course, otherwise you would think that when we came up, the people we met didn't leave directly for something."

"Then let's go down and find a comfortable place to stay?" You Xiao said again.

Yunjing thought for a while and said: "Go ahead, I can still bear it, and I don't want to miss the show, in case the fight starts after I leave the ring."

The reason for saying this is not that Yunjing has any interest in the so-called Ten Thousand Swords Contest. In fact, he came with a mission. He promised his master Li Qiu to take away the Tianzi Sword as much as possible. If going down the mountain meant giving up, he

He couldn't guarantee whether this would have an impact on taking away the Emperor's Sword. Anyway, he should try his best to complete the tasks assigned by his master. He couldn't guarantee whether he could complete the task in the end. He would just do his best.

He didn't even want to leave. Youxiao felt it was boring to leave alone, so he could only stay and endure the harsh environment here. Then he saw Yunjing looking around thoughtfully, and couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing?"

What?"

"I thought, it's sick to just wait for the cold wind to blow, so I'd better try to make myself more comfortable. Look at many of them. They are all shivering from the cold and gritting their teeth and insisting on not wanting to change. Why bother?

"

Yun Jing smiled and said, after he finished speaking, he took a few steps forward with the big hammer on his shoulder, then swung the hammer and hit the ice at his feet with a loud bang.

Bang~!

The ice surface shook, and when he swung the hammer with his terrifying power, ice shards flew and a pit the size of a tabletop appeared, but there were spider web-like cracks on the ice that spread out for nearly ten meters.

It should be noted that the ice surface here is as strong as steel, and when everyone's cultivation is limited, he can still make such a movement. You can imagine how attractive it is, and countless people are watching.

Looking at Yun Jing who made this move, many people were shocked that he still had such destructive power despite his limited cultivation, but they didn't take it too seriously. After all, Yun Jing used a hammer, and he could fight against those who had the intention to fight with ten thousand swords.

It has no impact on people who have the opportunity, and it does not constitute a competitive relationship.

"Brother Sledgehammer, what are you doing?" You Xiao said tangledly. His cultivation level was already limited. At this time, he was under a lot of pressure when facing so many eyes. Can we keep a low profile?

Yun Jing didn't care about people's gazes at all, and said carelessly: "Quickly, Brother You is here to help. I used a clever force. Although it didn't make much noise, it only cracked the surrounding ice. I took advantage of the cracks before they freeze."

, let’s use ice blocks to build a shelter from the wind, it will be more comfortable than being exposed to the cold wind in the snow and ice like everyone else.”

As he spoke, Yunjing put down the hammer, bent down and stretched out his hand to pull out the ice cubes. He immediately picked up a lump the size of a table, then held it with both hands and placed it more than ten meters away, and then quickly came over to continue.

Seeing this, You Xiao blinked, then his eyes lit up and he said, "This is a good idea, why didn't I think of it?"

Then he ran to dig ice blocks and build an igloo with Yunjing.

Not to mention Youxiao didn't expect it, even the thousands of people on the top of the mountain didn't expect it. Are they stupid? Of course not, but because their thinking has not changed.

Buji, now that his cultivation has been suppressed, he only subconsciously relies on his physical strength to resist. He doesn't really regard himself as an ordinary person, and he doesn't realize that he can still keep out the cold in ordinary people's ways. Well, there is another extremely important reason,

That is, everyone else looks calm and calm in this harsh environment. If I show that I can't stand it, doesn't it mean I am worse than others? I deserve to suffer because of my desire to compare.

As a result, it wasn't until Yunjing, a guy who didn't follow common sense, arrived.

In front of everyone, Yun Jing and You Xiao were busy working together. They quickly used local materials to build an igloo using solid ice. Because the ice blocks used to build the igloo were irregular, they were very leaky, but it was better than being directly exposed to the cold.

It's so comfortable in the wind.

There are still a lot of crushed ice here, which they use to plug the gaps where air leaks. As the gaps become fewer and fewer, it becomes more and more comfortable to carry inside the igloo, at least it is more comfortable than those who are still in the cold wind.

hundred times.

"If my cultivation level is not restricted, I only need to use the scorching heat technique to melt the cracks and freeze it a little to make it airtight. It is a bit crude, but it is no different from home." You Xiao said while working.

smiled.

Yunjing replied: "No, after the gap is almost sealed, we can still burn a fire in there to keep warm. We can even make tea and make food, but there is no firewood."

His heart was moved when he said this, and he said: "Leave the firewood matter to me, you plug the remaining gaps, I will get some, and get some game by the way, then we will have something good to eat and drink."

"Fire roasted"

"Okay, you go ahead and leave the rest to me," Yunjing said nonchalantly and continued to work on sealing the gaps. He said to himself that he would stay in a comfortable environment and watch a movie, tsk, comfortable.

You Xiao went down the mountain to find firewood and game. As the igloos in Yunjing Lane were gradually perfected, many people couldn't hold it anymore and started building similar igloos using local materials.

Room.

It's one thing if no one takes the lead. Everyone is pretending to be aloof and suffers. There are already people taking the lead, so what else do they care about?

Then a confusing scene appeared on the top of the mountain. Countless people dug into the ground to get ice to build igloos, as if they had forgotten the purpose of coming here. The place was made like a large construction site, and the rhythm was suddenly changed by the cloud scenery.

Taken out.

But not everyone does it themselves. For example, for people like the third prince, they don't even bother to do anything, so naturally their subordinates are busy with the work. The igloo they built is quite exquisite, just like a small house, and they even draw inferences from one example.

Use ice to make tables, chairs and utensils.

Xie Yunlan, who was closing his eyes and concentrating on the ring, waiting for the next one to challenge him, was so entangled in his heart at the moment that he almost cursed, secretly thinking, what the hell is going on with you, pretend I don't exist, come challenge me, everyone is so busy doing it.

what's up?

However, he couldn't stay in the ring while he was in the ring, so he could only continue to stand there and blow the cold wind. He even had the urge to beat him up, and then go and get an igloo to keep warm.

, it’s like a beeping dog, not to mention how confusing it is.

Again, not everyone does it by themselves, and some people even want to get something for nothing.

Seeing that Yun Jing's igloo was almost done, a burly man with a sword on his shoulder stepped over and grinned: "Boy, I'm very satisfied with the igloo you made. It's mine now. Do you have any objections?"

"

Yunjing knew that this kind of thing was unavoidable, so he looked back at the other person and curled his lips and said: "Get lost."

"I'm looking for death. If I don't drink the toast, I'll have to drink as a penalty. Originally, I only wanted your igloo and didn't want to hurt anyone. Now I'm going to keep you because of your "Go" word!" The man holding the knife grinned sneer, revealing a set of strong white teeth.

As he spoke, he stepped forward and struck Yun Jing head-on with his sword. The force of the sword was sharp and swift, and contained many changes. Even without the blessing of any internal energy, the air buzzed with the strike.

In response to this, Yun Jing just kicked him. The opponent didn't even touch him, but he was kicked in the heart. His face immediately changed wildly, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the sound of cracking bones came from his chest.

, the person was even kicked so hard that he flew back, flew tens of meters away, fell down the cliff and disappeared!

The other party is going to kill me, do you still need to be polite? And when you look at that guy, his hands are covered in blood. Yun Jing will not be used to this kind of person at all.

And he hasn't exerted much force yet. The guy originally only had the innate initial level of cultivation at best, but now it's still restricted. If Yunjing exerts more force, he can directly kick him!

It was neat, simple and direct. With limited cultivation, there were no fancy moves and techniques, which fully demonstrated Yunjing's arrogance and ferocity.

Seeing this scene, many people who were eager to give it a try immediately gave up the idea of ​​bullying others into occupying the magpie's nest. It is better not to provoke this fierce guy for the time being, especially since he has not yet used weapons. Now everyone's cultivation is restricted.

, if such a big hammer hits the body, it will be smashed into pulp.

After retracting his kicking leg, Yunjing looked around as if he had done something trivial and continued to work on his own.

At the same time, he secretly thought that although this shocked some people, it also attracted the attention of the group. I guess some guys have regarded him as a strong enemy for the 'opportunity'!
