Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

Chapter 69: Up to the mountain top



The name of the Vertical Pen Peak was well-deserved, like a pen standing straight up, steep and towering.

There was only a simple mountain path leading up the mountain. Standing at the foot of the mountain, one could easily imagine how difficult it was for the cultivators of San Shan City to open up this path, especially when there were ferocious beasts everywhere.

Every step was taken with blood, and every level was marked by fallen souls.

The blood and flesh of the dead formed steps, and the souls of the deceased protected the living. Only by advancing could the living finally reach the top of the mountain and eliminate the ferocious beasts.

Two years later, new ferocious beasts roamed here, and new hunters appeared.

Jiang Wang was not unfamiliar with ferocious beasts, but this was his first time in a legendary ferocious beast nest.

Because of the rich rewards, many cultivators came to San Shan City, but the vast majority chose to join the army of San Shan City to eliminate the Yu Heng Peak. Only a few teams chose the Vertical Pen Peak.

Early in the morning, Li Jianqiu led his team to climb to the top of the mountain. The first half of the road was smooth, with only occasional scattered bones.

The mountain path spiraled up the mountain, with cliffs on one side and a precipice on the other. Occasionally, strange screams echoed in the valley, making people's hair stand on end.

"Be careful!" Li Jianqiu suddenly reminded them, but did not take action.

A snake-like ferocious beast suddenly sprang from the cliff, covered in scales the same color as the rocks. This layer of protection made it difficult to detect when it was still.

Jiang Wang drew his long sword first, and with the first move of the Purple Qi Sword Art, he slashed the snake-like ferocious beast when it opened its huge mouth, cutting off its head.

His other hand did not idle, and he stuffed a fireball into the snake's mouth. As the snake-like ferocious beast fell off the cliff, he floated back to the mountain path.

This series of actions was clean and neat, without any extra movements, giving the viewers a pleasing feeling.

After incorporating Dao techniques into the battle system, Jiang Wang's combat power had increased many times over.

"This ferocious beast is called the Rock Snake, with extremely strong defense, and its mouth and stomach are its weak points." Li Jianqiu explained as he walked forward, "Jiang Shidi dealt with it beautifully. If the ferocious beasts on the Vertical Pen Peak are only of this intensity and density, it seems that we can reach the top today."

"Li Shixiong seems to be very familiar with this place?" Zhao Rucheng asked.

"I've been here before." Li Jianqiu replied.

He deliberately didn't take action just now, wanting to observe the abilities of the others. The results satisfied him.

Zhao Rucheng reacted quickly and quickly adjusted his position. If Li Jianqiu didn't see it wrong, he and Jiang Wang had the same starting move when it came to swordplay, and it seemed that they both had learned the legendary Transcendent Sword Art that Jiang Wang had won the championship with at the Three City Debate.

Huang Azhan usually joked around, but he also completed his Daoist preparations in a very short time.

Of course, what surprised Li Jianqiu the most was Jiang Wang. He knew that Jiang Wang's foundation would have a qualitative improvement, but he didn't expect it to improve so much. Jiang Wang's current strength far surpassed that of the Three City Debate.

With such a team, they might not be very powerful, but at least no one would drag them down.

As they walked forward, they came to a corner, and just as Li Jianqiu's figure disappeared from sight, there was a violent Daoist wave.

Jiang Wang hurriedly caught up and saw the corpse of a centipede-like ferocious beast, cut into several pieces and scattered around. Li Jianqiu's hands were burning with two flaming swords.

"Wind Centipede, it can fly." Li Jianqiu explained, and then said lightly, "It's not easy to deal with if there are a lot of them."On this narrow mountain path, it would be difficult to deal with an attack from a flying fierce beast. Fortunately, only a wind centipede had appeared so far.

The consecutive appearances of fierce beasts indicated that they had already entered the area where fierce beasts roamed, and everyone became more alert.

Huang Azhan carefully added various states to himself, such as Stone Skin Technique and Solid State, and also added them to Jiang Wang and Zhao Rucheng.

Finally, Li Jianqiu looked at him helplessly and asked, "Do you have enough Dao Yuan?"

Only then did Huang Azhan stop.

Halfway up the mountain.

The waist of the woman was graceful, and the waist of the man was strong. The mountain slope of the Vertical Pen Peak was treacherous.

The mountain path ended here, with no way forward, only rugged rocks and strange trees.

And on those trees and rocks, there were more than twenty fierce beasts lurking and crouching, in the shape of wolves, snakes, and birds, all equally terrifying and fierce.

Fierce beasts had no intelligence, so this was not an ambush. To be precise, Jiang Wang and the others had entered their resting place, and they naturally erupted in the first place.

The four clusters of fresh and tender flesh near them made them drool with madness.

Li Jianqiu held the Double Flame Sword and rushed into the group of fierce beasts. The flame sword fluttered, and the flesh and blood became blurred.

Zhao Rucheng leaped out with his sword, cutting to one side. Unlike Li Jianqiu's direct charge, he kept facing less than three fierce beasts at the same time. His sword moved left and right, cutting through the vital points.

Huang Azhan quickly cast spells. When he added states to himself, Jiang Wang had already noticed his fast spell-casting. Now, he saw that the flame bullets were like a string of beads, almost rushing forward.

He naturally didn't want to fall behind. With his left hand completing the spell, a vine wrapped around a wolf-like fierce beast in front of him, and then his long sword flew over, cutting off the wolf's head.

He kicked the wolf's corpse away and hit another tiger-like fierce beast.

He was like a long sword, and his sword was the tip of the sword itself.

The power of the Purple Qi Coming from the East Sword Technique shook the ordinary iron, and the sword cut through the snake-like fierce beast like a sharp blade cutting paper.

The snake's body split in half, and Jiang Wang flew out of the splashing blood with his sword and body, narrowly avoiding getting any snake blood on him.

A hawk-like fierce beast swooped down and almost hit the splashing snake blood in the air, emitting a sharp and miserable scream when corroded.

Jiang Wang turned around, his long sword shot out and pierced the hawk beast's slender neck, beheading it.

This ordinary long sword could no longer withstand this level of battle and exploded in mid-air.

Jiang Wang was prepared for this. He had been casting spells for a long time, and with a flick of his hand, he had already condensed a flaming sword.

At this point, the snake blood fell to the ground, corroding the rocks into pits.

Jiang Wang rushed forward with his flaming sword, colliding with the tiger-like fierce beast that had been knocked away earlier.

The flame sword pierced its heart, and Jiang Wang grabbed the tiger-like fierce beast's neck with his left hand, throwing it to one side.

This series of battles was clever and smooth. If it weren't for the control of his own Dao Yuan, he wouldn't have been able to achieve this level.

At this moment, Li Jianqiu had killed two fierce beasts in the group, and only two wind centipedes were left.

They seemed to have no fear, let alone the concept of escape, still diving down fiercely from the left and right.

Li Jianqiu leaped up, and the two flame swords crossed in the air. The two wind centipedes were cut into four pieces and fell to the ground with him.

Zhao Rucheng had already put away his sword, and he seemed to have no pressure.

Huang Azhan...

"Li Senior Brother is mighty!"

He could still actively flatter, so he should be in good condition.Jiang Wang casually extinguished the Flame Sword. He couldn't compare to Li Jianqiu's abundant Dao Yuan, so he had to save it when possible.

Now, his Star River Dao Cycle generated nine Dao Yuan every day, and combined with his own Meridian cultivation, the accumulation speed was very fast. But in this high-intensity battle, it couldn't support for too long.

Li Jianqiu stepped over the corpses of the fierce beasts and walked forward.

Without the cover of those fierce beasts, Jiang Wang noticed a huge rock ahead, with something carved on its surface.
