On top of the tree boat, Lin Yuan lay on the shield and looked curiously at the scene outside.
"Master, what is the big gourd in front of you?"
"Lin Yuan, that's the Plum Blossom Sect's Ziyu Gourd. Although it looks big, it can only seat one person."
"Master, there's someone stepping on a flying sword over there!"
"That's the sword-controlling technique of the Youlong Sect. You'll be even more handsome when you learn the wind-controlling technique of our sect."
"oh."
Along the way, Yin Jiu continued to deal with Lin Yuan's questions. Under Zhang Xianwen's full control, Shuzhou finally arrived at the Qingfeng Sect.
As far as the eye can see, there is a vast expanse of snow-capped mountains. Lin Yuan came out of the tree boat and stood on the snow halfway up the mountain, with a shocked expression on his face.
"Don't panic, disciple, what you see in front of you is just the effect of the enigmatic formation. The entrance to the sect is hidden behind this forbidden formation. Look!"
"Mountain protection formation, open!"
Yin Jiu laughed, and the whisk rolled up a green light and shot into the air.
A circle of blue ripples stirred up in a place that was originally empty. The ripples dispersed, and a brand new world appeared in front of Lin Yuan.
Not far away, a winding stone path emerged and extended until it disappeared into the clouds and mist. There are cliffs on one side of the trail and strange rocks and rocks on the other. Some pine trees grow horizontally on the stone walls, and the green pine needles cannot even be completely covered by the snow.
Lin Yuan looked upwards, and vaguely saw a mountain peak in the clouds and mist, with several houses appearing and disappearing on top, giving the impression of an immortal family.
How long does it take to walk to the top!
Lin Yuan thought in his heart.
"Xianwen, go up and prepare a medicated bath for junior brother." Yin Jiu said.
"Yes." Zhang Xianhua floated up as a breeze.
"So there's no need to leave?" Lin Yuan asked in surprise.
"No, you need to walk from here to the hall above."
"ah?"
With a wave of Yin Jiu's whisk, Lin Yuan felt that he was wrapped in a gentle wind, and his whole body was floating up. He couldn't distinguish between east, west and north. When he came back to his senses, he found that he was already standing on the stone steps.
"Work hard, my teacher will be waiting for you in the hall above."
Yin Jiu gave Lin Yuan an encouraging look, and his body turned into a breeze, whizzing past Lin Yuan, disappearing into the clouds in the blink of an eye.
"How could it become like this?"
Lin Yuan looked surprised. He didn't expect that the gentle and kind old master on the boat would just leave him and fly away.
Lin Yuan turned around and glanced behind him. It was all snow and there were no roads at all.
"You can only go up."
Lin Yuan knew that he had no choice, and with a cold heart, he raised his feet and stepped up the steps. The icy wind blew on my face and my body was very cold.
"Master, aren't you being too cruel? The disciples I recruited in the past were only halfway up the steps, and it was still in the spring and summer."
On the top of the mountain, Zhang Xianwen was boiling a pot of medicinal soup, looking worried.
"What are you afraid of? Although this climbing ladder looks dangerous, Master, I have activated the safety restrictions. Even if he accidentally falls off the cliff, his life will be safe." Yin Jiu stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Master, I remember that 2 medium-grade spiritual stones are needed to activate that restriction." Zhang Xianwen's eyes became more worried.
"What are you afraid of? Don't we still have those magic weapons in our sect's treasure house? We can sell them. No one in our sect uses them anyway." Yin Jiu said openly.
"..." Zhang Xianwen said nothing, and the medicinal soup in the pot stirred faster.
On the climbing ladder, Lin Yuan braved the wind and snow and climbed the steps step by step.
The steps looked very long before, but when I walked up, they became even longer. Lin Yuan felt as if his feet were filled with lead. Every step he took was very difficult.
In less than half an hour, Lin Yuan was out of breath and sweating all over. Compared with physical fatigue, what is more terrifying is the psychological pressure.
The stone steps seem to have no end, and there are deep and dangerous cliffs all around. Ordinary people may lose all courage after just one glance.
But Lin Yuan is different. He has known since he was a child that he is not an ordinary person. Every time he makes up his mind to do something, he will enter a state of concentration.
All distracting thoughts and temptations from the outside world could not affect him. There was a mysterious and mysterious golden light that enveloped his soul.
"Master said to wait for me at the top of the mountain, then I will be able to reach the top of the mountain."
Therefore, although this climbing ladder goes straight into the clouds and is extremely dangerous, Lin Yuan still climbs up step by step.
100 steps, 300 steps... 1000 steps, before he knew it, he had walked less than half of the distance.
Lin Yuan's eyelashes were covered with hoarfrost, there were blood blisters on the soles of his feet, and his thin body was swaying, but he was still moving forward!
"This this!"
Zhang Xianwen was shocked in his heart by Lin Yuan's perseverance. Most adults should have collapsed, but a ten-year-old child actually completed the 1,000 steps step by step without wavering!
"On the road to cultivating immortality, there are many people with unique skills and extraordinary powers, but few people can truly be down-to-earth and climb step by step."
Yin Jiu also sighed. In his estimation, Lin Yuan only had to climb 300 steps. The purpose is also to make him understand that the road to immortality is like climbing the clouds to heaven. The road is long and difficult and dangerous, and he should not be arrogant.
"Junior brother, he's still leaving! Is it really okay?" Zhang Xianwen asked worriedly.
"I'll go see him." Yin Jiu said.
To cultivate immortality, you can cultivate immortality by climbing to the top of the mountain.
Lin Yuan's consciousness was in a trance, and his muscles and bones were making strange noises, protesting to him.
"Lin Yuan, you did a good job! That's enough. Come up with me as a master." Yin Jiu floated in the air, looked at Lin Yuan distressedly, and said.
"It's not enough, I can walk up there! I can do it!" Lin Yuan said firmly, word by word.
go ahead! go ahead! Nothing can stop me!
Deep down, a will came to his mind so strongly. There is golden light seeping out from the depths of the soul, driving away all distracting thoughts.
At this moment, Lin Yuan actually smiled. He had no doubts about reaching the summit.
Yin Jiu looked at the child in front of him in shock, and climbed up the stairs slowly but firmly.
"What a terrifying will!"
After half a day, Lin Yuan reached the top of the mountain.
"The stairs are really long, 3,600 steps in total."
After Lin Yuan finished speaking with a smile, his body slowly fell down.
Yin Jiu, who was on the side, personally stepped forward to help Lin Yuan up and carefully put him into the medicinal soup.
"He is gifted by nature and has superhuman ambition! I have a hunch that he will soon surpass us." Yin Jiu said to Zhang Xianwen with emotion.
"Junior brother, I, Zhang Xianwen, will hold this thigh." Zhang Xianwen worked harder to stir the medicinal soup with the magic power in his body.
When Lin Yuan woke up, he found that he was in the main hall and put on a blue Taoist robe. Not only did my body fully recover, but I also felt more energetic.
After checking himself, Lin Yuan had time to look at the main hall.
There is no splendor as imagined. There is only a plain painting hanging in the middle and an incense burner placed underneath. The smoke curled up, and there was a touch of solemnity in the tranquility.
Yin Jiu stood in front of him, and his senior brother stood quietly aside.
"Lin Yuan, starting from today, you are my Yin Jiuer disciple and officially join my Qingfeng Sect!"
Yin Jiu's face was solemn, and he pointed his sword into Lin Yuan's eyebrows.
"There is pure air in heaven and earth, I take it and turn it into wind."
The Taoist taught the method, and the Qingfeng Jue was like a breeze blowing into Lin Yuan's soul.
At this moment, Lin Yuan finally stepped into the door of cultivating immortality.
