Chapter 565 Before the Dangerous Peak

Standing on the mountainside, Han Shuang looked indescribably tired.

In three years, she has really tried her best to get here in the body of a weak little girl.

Just yesterday, the illusion suddenly changed. Although she had not yet reached the dangerous peak, she could still feel the changes around her. There were suddenly many people in the originally deserted mountain! Everyone is working hard to climb to the top of the mountain, but more and more people are blocked on the mountainside like her.

The mountain where the Immortal Palace is located is too steep, and they are just ordinary children now. They have lost the power they could rely on in the past, and now they look so fragile in front of this steep mountain.

Although Han Shuang still doesn't know how much time is left for her in this test, but just from the coincidence of the illusions, she has already guessed that the chance left for her is actually very slim.

Taking a deep breath, Han Shuang bit her lip tightly, once again grasped the stone crevice in the mountain with her blistered palms, and tried to climb up.

........

"Whoosh!"

A ray of sword light pierced the sky. Almost at the same time as Ji Yifeng climbed to the dangerous peak, the sword light was suddenly pressed down, and a young man wearing the clothes of a disciple of the Immortal Palace appeared in front of him.

"You are very good. I have been observing you for two days. It is not easy to have such a firm heart towards Taoism at such a young age! Now, I can introduce you to the Immortal Palace to practice Taoism. What is your name?"

The young man asked with a gentle smile on his face.

Hearing the young man's words, Ji Yifeng couldn't help but feel a little jump in his heart, and then he bowed and said, "Disciple Ji Yifeng, thank you senior brother for your guidance!"

Waving his hand, the young man shook his head and said, "No need to thank me. I follow the law and anyone who can reach the dangerous peak by himself can be admitted to the Immortal Palace to practice Taoism. This is the result of your own efforts."

"Dangerous peak?" Ji Yifeng was slightly startled, and glanced at the mountain peak in front of him, he couldn't help but feel confused.

The mountain peak in front of us is indeed steep and almost vertical, but before the dangerous peak, there is obviously a stone staircase with thousands of steps leading straight to the top of the peak. How dangerous is this?

Seemingly seeing Ji Yifeng's doubts, the young man smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the person you should really thank is Junior Brother Wu Chi. If he hadn't used his wooden sword to open the heavenly steps and knocked on the mountain door, maybe the palace master would There may not be a decree to guide you."

"Wu Chi?!"

Hearing this name, Ji Yifeng couldn't help but trembled in his heart, and couldn't help shouting out.

"Huh? What, do you know him?" the young man asked with some confusion.

"I don't know you!" Ji Yifeng's reaction was also very quick. His eyelids twitched slightly and then came back in a blink of an eye. "I'm a little surprised. Senior brother, are you saying that these stone steps are made of wooden swords used by this senior brother named Wu Chi?" Developed?"

"Haha, speaking of it, I have to admire this Junior Brother Wu Chi! You may not know that he has just joined the sect. Like you, he was just an ordinary person with no cultivation. ! Even us disciples have to admire that only a wooden sword can create such a heavenly step on a dangerous peak." With a casual smile, the young man explained immediately.

But he didn't notice that the more he spoke, the colder Ji Yifeng's heart became.

If he had some doubts based on just a name before, now that he heard the young man's explanation, he was absolutely sure that the person he was talking about was definitely the Wu Chi he knew!

But... isn't this too perverted?

Just looking at the long stone steps in front of him, Ji Yifeng felt a little numb. How could he possibly open it up with a wooden sword and a body that had no cultivation at all?

After calming down, Ji Yifeng asked again, "Didn't Senior Brother say that he had just become a disciple of the Immortal Palace? How could he become a disciple of the Immortal Palace so quickly?"

Pointing to the heavenly steps in front of him, the young man explained matter-of-factly, "The wooden sword opened the heavenly steps and knocked on the mountain gate. Junior Brother Wu Chi directly alerted the palace master, and then he made an exception and directly granted the identity of the core disciple. Is this surprising? "

Core disciple? ! !

Hearing these four words, Ji Yifeng felt even colder. He was very aware of the grudge between himself and Wu Chi! This will definitely not be resolved with Wu Chi leaving Wanjian Sect. Now Wu Chi has entered the sect in advance and has become a core disciple. If he enters the sect directly like this, once he is bumped into by Wu Chi, he will definitely not be able to resolve it. There will be good results.

For a moment, his mind changed. Ji Yifeng almost immediately gave up the idea of ​​entering the sect immediately. He pondered for a moment and bowed again, "To be honest, senior brother, this time I did not come alone, but with several people." I came with my friends! I just got lost in the mountains before. Now I have been introduced by my senior brothers and can join the sect, but there is no news from them yet... I feel really uneasy and want to go back and try to see if I can find him. They, join the sect with them, okay?"

Hearing Ji Yifeng's words, the young man was slightly startled and couldn't help but admire him, "At such a time, you are still able to remember your friends. You are amazing!"

After a pause, the young man said, "It's just the palace master's decree. We disciples can only guide people who can climb to the dangerous peak, but we can't help you."

"Thank you for your concern, senior brother. I am willing to go find them alone." Ji Yifeng spoke again without blinking.

Hearing Ji Yifeng's categorical answer, the young man became even more impressed. He pondered for a moment and said, "If you insist on doing this, of course you can! However, remember, the palace master's decree is limited to half a month. It has been two days now. No matter whether you can find them or not, you must return here again within the half-month period, otherwise, the mountain gate will be closed again, and even you will lose the opportunity to worship at the gate."

Ji Yifeng's eyelids twitched slightly, and he also reacted in the same way.

Half a month should be the deadline for this assessment.

If you haven't joined the sect after the half-month period is up, you will definitely be eliminated.

However, for him, this is not a problem at all.

Since he can make it this time, he is naturally confident of coming back. Now, the most important thing for him is to find a way to wait until the last deadline before joining the sect! In this way, even if he bumped into Wu Chi, Wu Chi would not have time to do anything to him.

As for finding someone...it would be best if we could find our senior brother, but it wouldn't matter if we couldn't find him. What's the big deal? Anyway, he never thought about helping anyone complete the assessment.

What I said before was just an excuse.

Of course, in fact, Ji Yifeng's guess was indeed correct.

Now Wu Chi is indeed looking for acquaintances in the mountain gate. If he dares to enter the sect directly, Wu Chi is afraid that he may find a way to kill him before the entrance ceremony and make him fail the assessment.

This hiding really allowed him to escape disaster temporarily.
