< p > Mo Tian Cliff.
Heaven Breaking Stairway.
Two figures quickly climbed up the steep, narrow mountain.
In just one night, Xie Chi had broken through from a normal practitioner to the Large Success Realm in one fell swoop, which dispelled Wu Zhi's doubts.
Wu Zhi only needed to lead the way ahead, with his current strength, he followed closely behind Wu Zhi, not even taking half a step away, he did not even need to rest midway.
Wu Zhi trained in the Dao, so he did not know anything about the normal Qi raising and light body martial arts. The two of them relied on their strong inner strength to forcefully climb.
Compared to the first time he went up the mountain ten years ago, Wu Zhi had saved a full third of his time this time.
Before sunset, the two of them had already ascended the Heaven's Stairway.
The so-called Sky Stairway was an incomparably imposing sight. The steep mountain was like a ladder with an unsurmountable height. It was broken in the middle, revealing an empty space with a radius of a hundred meters. It was abnormally sudden.
In the center of the open space, there was an exquisite little bamboo house. Clouds and mist lingered around it, making it seem like an illusion.
Wu Zhi straightened his clothes three more times and arrived in front of the bamboo house.
He saw that the door of the bamboo house had a correct title, "Immortal Residence".
The three big, thin words were actually written by Zhao Ji himself.
Xie E snickered, the taste of this loose and vulgar emperor was truly extraordinary, he had actually raised the topic to the rarely seen Mo Tian Cliff.
Wu Zhi bowed slightly at the door, and said in a clear voice: "Junior Wu Zhi, bringing little friend Xie E along, has come to pay his respects to senior granduncle."
Xie E's power and hearing had greatly increased, and his sense of sight and hearing had greatly improved. Not to mention the small hut that was just inches away, even if he were to move up another two kilometers, he would still be able to clearly sense the auras of ordinary people.
Xie E carefully searched through all of the auras, but to no avail.
At this time, Xie E could not afford to be disrespectful, so he followed Wu Zhi in bowing, "The last part of learning is Xie E, greets Old Senior Huang."
There was no movement in the bamboo house.
They stood there for a while, waiting, but there was no choice.
Xie E arrived at an empty spot and continued to meditate.
That night's worth of comprehension made Xie E extremely happy, and he was not tired of the breathing technique that Wu Zhi had taught him. Now, he circulated his energy for another week, and immediately felt the true strength in his body surge, becoming more pure.
Wu Zhi, on the other hand, was still respectfully guarding the door, not daring to slack off at all!
Time flew. Four hours passed, and it was already dark.
Xie E said: "I believe Elder Huang has something to attend to, so it would be better for Elder Wu to sit down and wait."
Xie E thought that Huang shang lived right inside the Heaven Smiting Stairway. As long as he waited here, he would be able to see Huang shang.
Wu Zhi laughed bitterly: "Four hours have passed, if we want to see Martial Granduncle now, I'm afraid we will have to go up."
Xie E was a little stunned, "Elder Huang is not here?"
Wu Zhi shook his head, "Martial Granduncle lives at the top of the sky. This is just a reception area, because it's not difficult to reach this place. Even if it's an ordinary hunter, with a bit of strength, they would most likely be able to reach this place."
Xie E nodded slightly.
Wu Zhi continued: "From this Heaven Breaking Stairway, almost no one will be able to reach the Cloud Sky Pavilion. Under normal circumstances, it would have been martial grandmasters descending in rank to meet their guests. Ten years ago, when I went with my teacher to visit my granduncle, it was here. At that time, my senior granduncle came here to meet me due to his lack of knowledge. As for my senior granduncle's true appearance, I also haven't seen it at all. "
Xie E was confused from hearing this, "Since we are going to meet, why haven't you seen Elder Huang before? As your senior, how could you not want to show your true appearance? "
Wu Zhi laughed, "It's my fault for being too weak. I couldn't even see senior granduncle's figure clearly, and could only see a shadow. That day, Martial Granduncle turned around and ordered me and my teacher to follow him up the mountain as soon as we met. My teacher was barely able to catch up to us, but when I couldn't hold on for more than half an incense stick of time, I could only sigh. That day, my dear teacher came to the Cloud Sky Pavilion and I was no longer able to take half a step forward! "
Xie E suspiciously looked at the "Sky Stairway" that was continuing to extend upwards.
It didn't seem any steeper than the road they had come from. On the contrary, it was a bit flat. Moreover, there was a clear path winding straight up on it. It seemed a lot simpler.
Wu Zhi knew what Xie E was thinking and hurriedly explained, "Don't underestimate the other half of the Sky Stairway. Every three hundred meters up, the energy you consume will double, so the total height is about five hundred meters! Ten years ago, I was only able to reach the three hundred meter mark, but I still do not have the confidence to reach the Cloud Sky Pavilion! "
Xie E was shocked. Looking at Wu Zhi's abilities, he knew that the two of them would definitely far surpass him. According to this, the chances of the both of them going up against the Cloud Sky Pavilion was extremely slim.
Wu Zhi sighed, "Since senior granduncle is unwilling to lower his level, it is likely that he is testing our strength. "Since that's the case, let's rest for the night and try our best to get it done tomorrow!"
Xie E nodded.
The two of them sat down.
At night, the mountain wind was biting cold. Both of them did not dare to enter the small bamboo house to avoid the wind. Looking at the deep clouds, someone secretly praised them.
Tong Guan held Zhao Gou hostage, and none of the guards dared to rashly go forward.
Zhao Gou sighed, "You can all leave now. Old Tong had done meritorious deeds for his entire life in the imperial court. Even if he had committed heinous crimes, he would not die. When I send Elder Tong out, the sky will fall and I'll bear the consequences. "
Everyone left as if they had been granted amnesty.
Zhao Gou slowly led the way as he brought Tong Guan out of the Sky Prison.
Tong Guan's gaze stayed on Zhao Gou the entire time, it was actually filled with the feeling of licking a calf. After he left the palace, Tong Guan actually didn't notice it.
"Eh, Elder Tong, we have already left the palace. Please leave."
Zhao Gou's heart was filled with an unspeakable reluctance, he wanted to open his mouth to stay a few times, but he did not know where to start, this kind of conflict, this kind of hesitation, made Zhao Gou feel at a loss of what to do!
Tong Guan regained his senses, and said dejectedly: "Now that we have parted, you and I will not have a chance to meet again. You … "Take care!"
They looked at each other, speechless.
After a long while, Tong Guan finally turned around and left. He stared at Tong Guan with his eyes as he stood still.
Tong Guan suddenly stopped in his tracks, and asked hesitantly: "You and Xie E have become brothers?"
< p > "Exactly."
Zhao Gou didn't know why Tong Guan and Xie E were so hostile, even though Tong Guan's power would be taken back sooner or later, but the current situation was Tong Guan taking the initiative to shoot his gun.
< p > "This person is indeed a rare talent. If he is willing to wholeheartedly support you, that may not be a bad thing, but you must always be alert. If he becomes your enemy, then he might become the strongest, most terrifying and most deadly enemy of your life! "
Tong Guan leaped up and disappeared into the night.
Zhao Gou didn't recover his senses for a long time. Tong Guan's words were filled with contradiction, there was definitely an earth-shattering secret within, what exactly was it?
Zhao Gou slowly turned around and left. Zhao Gou needed to spend the entire night, or even several days, to digest the two hours of changes that occurred during this period. After all, this was related to Zhao Gou's future.
After Zhao Gou left, Tong Guan's figure flashed in the darkness and he muttered to himself, "I wonder when we'll meet again! "Ugh …" Xie E! Since you and I have chosen to oppose each other, is there any possibility of me turning back? "
Everything returned to the silence of the night. The silence of the night was terrifyingly still.
