Chapter 868: Walking Can Become Challenging
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Do we… have to climb up this mountain?” she asked Qian Jiyun.
This mountain was too high, and it was shaped like a vase. There was also a section that sloped outward, consisting primarily of rocks with no climbing handholds or footholds.
“How do we climb up?”
She felt that she would not be able to do it unless she was given a helicopter.
Qian Jiyun wanted to tell An Jiuyue to stay here; he would go up alone.
But when he remembered that they were in the wilderness, he did not know how to continue.
An Jiuyue knew what he was worried about, so she suggested, “Let’s go up together first. I’ll enter my space when we reach the section where I can’t climb. What do you think?”
“That’s good.” Qian Jiyun nodded.
He was worried about An Jiuyue’s safety, but she would be fine if she entered her space.
“Let’s go up together first. We can also pick some medicinal plants. There are many medicinal plants on Pingkou Mountain,” he said.
An Jiuyue was silent.
She wanted to destroy the Spirit Selection Art as soon as possible. She did not give any thought to the medicinal plants.
Any medicinal plant could be dug up or planted in the future. However, if the Spirit Selection Art were to remain, it would harm more than just a human or a demonic beast cub.
When they arrived at Pingkou Mountain, Qian Jiyun handed his long sword to An Jiuyue.
“Help me put this in your space,” he said.
An Jiuyue took the sword in confusion and realized something.
“Pingkou Mountain is actually a magnetic mountain!”
She felt a strong pull from the ground on the long sword, almost making it slip from her grip. She quickly stored the long sword in her space to avoid embarrassing herself by dropping it on the ground.
“The magnetic attraction on Pingkou Mountain is very strong. It’s fine here, but once we’re up on the mountain, metal objects can make walking challenging,” Qian Jiyun explained.
Hence, Pingkou Mountain did not have many visitors except for those who came to pick herbs.
Due to the inconvenience of carrying weapons up the mountain and the presence of many demonic beasts, not many people would come to pick herbs either. They would rather give up on this place and gather herbs elsewhere than come here and risk losing their lives.
“The magnetic attraction is indeed very strong.” An Jiuyue nodded.
She had experienced it herself just now. She almost lost her grip on the long sword, although she had also cultivated the Original Soul energy.
They chatted as they walked up the mountain. It was not too steep at first, but as they climbed higher, the mountain started to get steeper. Even Qian Jiyun had to hold on to the trees as they walked up.
And An Jiuyue, with Qian Jiyun protecting her with one hand, gritted her teeth and walked up the mountain.
“Jiyun, I’ll stay here. I won’t go up. You can go up yourself.”
When they arrived at a large tree, An Jiuyue stopped and spoke to Qian Jiyun while resting her hand on the tree trunk.
“Here is fine.” Qian Jiyun looked around and memorized it before nodding at An
Jiuyue. “Go into your space. I’ll head further up.”
An Jiuyue knew he would worry, so she entered her space immediately.
Of course, she had given him some medicinal pills before entering the space in case of emergencies. Who knew what awaited him on Pingkou Mountain?
Qian Jiyun watched her enter her space before continuing up..
