138 Natural Chasm

When Happy did not make the pursuers behind him reveal themselves, he was slightly disappointed, but he did not care too much about it, and neither did he linger in the area. He moved three hundred and thirty feet away from the forest without stopping and jumped a few times on the jagged mountain rocks. He ignored the white fog that gradually became thicker in front of him, and with familiar ease, he swiftly headed to a cliff at the summit.

Soon, a dash of blue appeared at the summit. Happy saw five iron chains that were more than three hundred and thirty feet long extending to the mountain across him from the cliff where he was. While it moaned and creaked, it swayed slowly in the violent wind.

Clang, clang, clang…

Even though each iron chain was the size of an adult man's fist and looked very sturdy as well as unbreakable, the loud and grave knocking sound produced by the violent wind terrified people's hearts. Happy felt that if he stepped on the chains, he would fall into the abyss hundreds of thousands of feet below and shatter to pieces.

When the fog thinned, he could see a mountain that was not very big across from him. It looked like a pillar that extended into the sky and stood tall among the clouds. The mountainside was smooth, without any spots that a person could use to jump or climb up.

The five iron chains that were the breadth of a fist were the only way to Punishment Mount!

Happy sucked in a deep breath. He carefully brought out the Giant Wolf Fur Equipment Sect from his Universe Bag and equipped the entire set before he cast a glance at the rather tall Punishment Mount in front of him. He sucked in a deep breath and stepped on the iron chain.

The swaying of the chain was not too great, but the mountain breeze would make people feel that it was unstable. The great dizziness that came from standing on a bridge also made Happy uneasy.

He let his weight sink on the swaying chain, and his body landed safely on it.

During that moment, no matter how great his lightness skill was, it was useless. If he did not know how to change his tactics according to the situation and used his lightness skill to fly across the bridge blindly, he would only end up being pushed into the abyss by the powerful mountain gusts.

There were plenty of people who could not overcome their acrophobia and lost their composure while in the middle. They were blown off the chains and had their bones crushed by the fall.

Happy took a few deep breaths at the cliff before he could calm himself from the feeling of falling hundreds of thousands of feet into the abyss. He raised his head slightly and took his first step forward on the chain.

Whoosh…

A mountain gust blew at him, and his body trembled. The chains under his feet swayed along with the wind, twisting between the two mountains.

Happy's expression changed. The moment he was about to lose his balance, he tapped on the chain, and in a flash, he jumped from the leftmost chain to the rightmost chain, which swayed the most violently.

Even though the chain had a weight added to it, it did not show clear changes in its swaying.

Clang!

A dull thud rose. Happy had used the chain to assist in his jump. His body rose against the wind, and at an extremely quick speed, he returned to the original chain. However, while he jumped back and forth, he had actually managed to move forward by three feet. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

When he stopped, the chains continued swaying.

Happy did not have time to regain his footing. He had to hold his breathing while he moved by a small margin. He landed on the chain to his right, and with a light tap, his body was brought back to the center of the bridge from the dangerous edge. He would no longer be pushed out of the trajectory of the chain by the mountain breeze.

One move, one tap.

The process repeated itself again and again.

Happy was like a weak leaf that moved back and forth between the five chains. He could only inch three or six and a half feet forward with each step.

The distance might not have been huge, but he could not give voice to the dangers contained in each jump he made.

The feeling of the abyss thousands of feet beneath his feet, the strong mountain gust, the swaying and instability when his feet landed on the chains, and the knowledge that the slightest mistake would make him fall to his death forced Happy to be careful, no matter how confident he was. He had to move forward slowly so that he could be sure that he would not lose his life.

Time moved forward at a snail's pace.

Happy's figure slowly sank into the white fog.

As the fog thickened, the grave look on Happy's face became even more prominent!

His vision grew blurry, and the chains became difficult to see. This caused Happy, who had been very attentive and nervous, to break into cold sweat.

By then, he had just managed to reach the middle section of Iron Chain Bridge. There was no ground anywhere near him, and everything was white. If anyone else were in his place, they would be so terrified they might die.

Happy did not dare to be inattentive. With a whoosh, his Hundred-battle Saber landed in his grip. His qi surged into it, and his blade instantly let out an astonishing blue halo.

Clang!

A brilliant saber glare in the shape of an arc swiftly appeared in the white fog.

Then, sparks formed by metal clashing against metal could be seen. A loud sound quickly traveled outwards from between the two mountains.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sounds rose nonstop and echoed continuously. As the metallic sparks flashed in the white fog, the sounds became even more frequent, and the interval between them grew shorter. If anyone saw it, they would definitely be shocked and think that this was from a deity. It had to be a miracle of Mount Song.

But the truth was that the person who created that miracle was like a duck on water—while it looked like it swam forward in a relaxed manner, in truth, it was rapidly paddling under the water!

Cold sweat soaked Happy's clothes.

He used his Flowering Knights' Song to determine the exact location of the five iron chains and the great rebound to stabilize himself on them.

With the faint halo shining on his blade courtesy of Flowering Knights' Song, Happy would hurriedly find a landing spot. Then, he would continue to swing his blade in the white fog. He was just like a person feeling his way forward while he crossed a river he had never crossed before.

However, his river was much higher up. It was basically a river in the sky!

Happy's experience from his previous life allowed him to not make any mistakes.

The rapid and dense clanging sounds helped him to get out of the white fog. When he saw Punishment Mount before him, he felt like seeing light for the first time. It was a beautiful scene that relaxed his vigilance, since he had just survived a desperate situation.

But there was a figure standing at the cliff, and the smile that had just appeared on Happy's face froze. His face went pale, and his heart sank.

Even though he had just looked over briefly, he had seen an old warrior monk in a light gray kasaya standing with a staff and a smile on his face. But Happy was not fooled. After all, he was not a new disciple of Shaolin Temple.

The only people who could move about freely in Punishment Mount were the monks who had broken their Buddhist vows.

They were isolated from the world, locked in Punishment Mount all year long. Most of them had mastered the art of putting up the image of a kindly old monk to deceive unknowing people, but their hearts were as dark as charcoal. If Happy let down his guard even in the slightest, he would definitely be taken advantage of.

But Happy did not expect that the end of the path to Punishment Mount would be guarded by a monk who had broken his Buddhist vows!

"Damn it!"

Happy was extremely shocked when he saw the figure.

For an instant, he wanted to turn around and walk back.

In such a dangerous situation, he was actually unfortunate enough to run into a Mystical Realm monk, who had broken his vows, guarding Iron Chain Bridge. It was already difficult for Happy to handle Iron Chain Bridge with just his qi in Blessed Realm, so he had spent most of it on the way. He also did not have the time to replenish it.

And at such a time, a monk who had broken his Buddhist vows just had to appear!
