When people are in a circle, everything in the world is a trap.
When the heart is outside the body, there is no fear of anything.
-----(gorgeous dividing line)-----
Even Wen Wushang, the person with the clearest mind and the most comprehensive thinking among the eighteen stars, did not expect such an accident to happen in Thunder Mountain. A gold-seeking rat and the Jishan Heart Sutra allowed Song Pingzi to walk through the outer area without even being in danger.
When he actually reached the bottom of the mountain called Leiming Mountain, Song Pingzi raised his head and couldn't actually see the top of the mountain. It was not because it was too high, but because the entire Leiming Mountain was shrouded in thunderstorms. What was different from the regular thunder and lightning on the outside was that, Thunder and lightning are always surrounding the surroundings, and thunderclouds are gathering at any time. The line of sight is completely blocked, and it is impossible to see how high up.
The power of the divine soul is completely useless here, let alone the divine fetus in the original cultivation system. It is estimated that it will be wiped out as soon as it comes out.
The big black dog also looked up for a while and then said, "Young master, you can't go up this mountain. I can go up to a hundred feet at most, no matter how high it is."
Song Pingzi felt very troubled. Although he could run the Jishan Heart Sutra at a higher level, there was no guarantee that there would be no accidents. If he relaxed a little, or there was a slight hesitation or sluggishness in the operation of the Jinshan Heart Sutra, he would realize the possibility of being spared.
If we can't climb this mountain, can we just stop here?
However, apart from some basic understanding of the native organisms inside and knowing that there must be large diamond deposits, there is almost no other useful information at all.
All land, hills, rocks, and creatures conform to the characteristics of areas with intensive thunder and lightning power. There is no clue as to why the power of thunder and lightning is so strong.
According to the information collected by the academy, there are many versions of the legend about the origin of Thunder Mountain, the most famous of which is that the name is derived from an ancient folk legend of "beating drums to catch stars".
In this story, it is said that a long time ago, a very brave general led his army to pursue the enemy and came here. The weather was hot and the army was very thirsty.
They found a small stream, but the water in the stream was too little to meet the needs of the army. In order to quench their thirst, the army could only extend the battle formation at both ends to save time and pursue the enemy. But the hostile forces seemed to have seen an opportunity and took the opportunity to turn around and kill them.
The general was so anxious that he ordered his guards to beat the drums. The soldiers heard the drums and the strict military discipline quickly restored their formation. They waved their weapons and lined up to attack the enemy. The drums of war continued, and their courage did not diminish. They killed the enemy so much that they thought they had seized the opportunity to counterattack, but in the end they were defeated and fled.
The violent drumming caused the rocks on the mountain to roll down one after another, making a huge noise when they hit each other, making the scene even more grand and spectacular.
But the sound also alarmed the gods living in the mountains. They believed that the army had disturbed the peace of the mountains, so they used magic to make lightning and thunder in the sky as a warning. However, the generals and soldiers were not afraid. They continued to beat the drums and shout. As a result, thunder and lightning struck both sides of the battle, and only the brave general survived.
In order to commemorate this brave general and his soldiers, people named this mountain "Leigu Mountain". Later, it was also called "Thunder Mountain" because the rocks on the mountain were split by lightning and made a thunderous sound. The rocks that rolled down are the hills and slopes in the outer area of Thunder Mountain.
But this legend is just a legend after all, and there is no real basis for the formation of Thunder Mountain. Those "gods" cannot always use magic to make Thunder Mountain thunder and lightning all year round. Are they not allowed to disturb the tranquility of Thunder Mountain? But these lightning and thunder sounds are also loud, and there is no silence at all.
After Song Pingzi thought about it for a while, he decided to go up the mountain first, in case there was anything discovered on the way up the mountain.
Thunder and lightning kept falling. If he wanted to go up from the foot of Thunder Mountain, he had to be prepared to withstand lightning attacks at any time. So before going up the mountain, he used the Jishan Heart Sutra to gather a lot of the power of thunder and lightning around him and keep it in one place. Ready to patch status. Sitting cross-legged, he had hundreds of top-grade spiritual stones beside him, one in each hand, rapidly replenishing the spiritual power of Qi Hai. He didn't stop until he felt that the air sea was slightly swollen. He had used up more than half of the best spiritual stones. It can be seen that in order to maintain the thunder and lightning shield around his body along the way, he had consumed a lot of spiritual energy.
What left Song Pingzi speechless the most was that there was not even a bit of sand in Leiming Mountain. Perennial thunderstorms had made Leiming Mountain look like it had been carved. Not only was it flat, but it was also extremely sharp and difficult to climb. Even if they fly over, the lightning impact caused by the thunderstorm is still a big obstacle.
If he had to use tools, he could only re-create them. The nearly 2,000 spiritual weapons that he had gathered together would become a pile of waste in an instant if he dared to put them outside his lightning shield.
The only way is to climb up step by step and maintain the strength of the lightning shield at all times. Step by step, it was difficult to climb up. After climbing for an hour, he could have overlooked the mountain, but his sight could not penetrate the dense thunderclouds. Song Pingcun felt that he could no longer hold on and had to take a break.
With the help of the big black dog, Song Pingzi climbed to a prominent boulder and leaned against the mountain wall, panting slightly. The big black dog didn't send a message to him, which meant that he might not have climbed to a height of 100 feet at this moment, but there was still no peak in sight.
Just by leaning on it, Song Pingzi felt that what came from his back was not the tingling sensation caused by thunder and lightning, but the breath changes caused by a rotation of objects with a very stable frequency, as if something was constantly rotating inside Thunder Mountain. It's like the flowing air flow brought by the polishing machine.
This discovery made Song Pingzi seem to be aware of the secret source of Thunder Mountain. He immediately mobilized the power of his soul to find out what was going on.
The power of the divine soul was used as a thunder shield. Before he entered the mountain, he immediately felt a strong thunder storm, which almost made him collapse with a headache. The thunder shield also shook for a while. He quickly stabilized his mind to prevent the thunder shield from scattering. go.
Song Pingzi was taken aback and quickly suppressed the power of the turbulent soul, while Counselor Ping among the spiritual seeds also encouraged and assisted him to appease the soul and suppress the turmoil. He took out a bottle of Soul Pill from the storage ring and drank one pill, while running the Jishan Heart Sutra, repairing the damage caused by lightning and stabilizing the spiritual power in the body.
This action lasted a day, which took him ten times more time than outside Thunder Mountain. Just like this, he felt better and basically returned to his normal state. But strangely, in this way, the power of the soul was much stronger than before.
Song Pingzi, who was slightly different, had not had time to carefully examine the reason why the power of the soul was consolidated. The rotating aura behind it still existed and there was no change.
"Little Master, this mountain is very weird. Let's go down." The big black dog said worriedly from the side.
"I'm sure there is a problem in the heart of the mountain. If we don't find out, this trip will be in vain." Song Pingzi said.
The big black dog didn't have the same feelings as Song Pingzi, but he knew that what Song Pingzi said was definitely true. If it were Song Pingcun or Song Erzai, they might just punch through the mountain wall and take a look inside, but Song Pingzi couldn't do it, and it felt like it might not be able to do it. This place is not far from his limit. If he goes up or penetrates the mountain, there may be dangers that he cannot control.
The big black dog still shook his head and said through a message: "You are here to investigate, not to risk your life, and there is no absolute safety protection. You cannot take risks. Since you have already sensed that there is a problem in the belly of the mountain, this is enough. The rest Sect Leader Song will know what to do, so don’t worry about it.”
After hearing this, Song Pingzi fell into deep thought. If he really returned like this, he didn't know whether there was really something inside the mountain or whether it was his own misunderstanding. Such information was actually of little value.
But now I can say that I am in a very embarrassing situation, neither advancing nor retreating. This mountain wall has been washed away by thunderstorms all year round and is already as hard as diamond. If you want to control the lightning shield and use your spiritual power to destroy it, it will inevitably cause a big shock and bring more uncertainty.
At that time, there was a high possibility that I would be trapped here, or even die here.
Seeing that Song Pingzi was silent and thinking, the big black dog was worried that he would do something impulsively, so he urged: "Young Master, it's best for us to go back the way we came." The big black dog looked at Song Pingzi and said.
"Return?" Song Pingzi was a little reluctant, "But we didn't get anything."
"I got it," the big black dog pointed at Song Pingzi's arms with his front paws and said, "Having this gold-seeking rat makes the trip worthwhile."
Song Pingzi shook his head after hearing this, "This was just an accident, not the result I wanted."
