The Golden Bridge was very wide. The team of more than a thousand people (excluding the attendants) appeared sparse on the Golden Bridge. Wang Lu and his errand boy casually walked at the back, talking and laughing wittily and wittily, unlike the others.
The average quality of this team of more than a thousand people was very high. Most of them were princes with illustrious backgrounds. However, at the foot of the Spirit Sword Mountain, they all kept quiet out of fear. It was not easy for them to stay calm on the Immortal Path, and it was very rare for them to be able to stay calm. Coupled with Wang Lu's stunning performance a week ago, he had attracted a lot of attention.
While most of the people were hesitating and watching, there was someone who walked over openly and greeted them without putting on airs. His tone was as friendly as it could be.
"I haven't seen you in the past few days."
Wang Lu was chatting happily with his errand boy when he was interrupted. He froze for a moment and turned his head. "Do you owe me money?"
That person was also surprised. "No, I didn't."
"Then why do I need to see you?"
"... I don't think so."
"Then why are you sighing? Are you trying to strike up a conversation? "
"…"
"By the way, who are you?"
That person smiled wryly. "Great people are forgetful …" Then he cupped his hands and said, "I am Hai Yunfan, from the Cloud Region. Seven days ago, I met you in the lobby of the Ru Family Inn."
Wang Lu frowned as if he was trying to remember. "Oh, you are the young man who asked me about the strategy … Do you have any advice for me?"
"I don't deserve advice. I'm just curious. Everyone on the Immortal Path is nervous, but you are calm and confident. I want to ask you about the mystery."
Wang Lu smiled. "You're here to ask about the strategy again? That's a bad habit. A qualified adventurer should be proud of exploring on his own. What's the point of chewing sugar cane? "
Hearing this, Hai Yunfan's eyes lit up. "So, you really know about the key points of the Immortal Path?"
"How could I know? I haven't read the strategy. "
"Then …"
Wang Lu replied in a deep voice, "Of course it's because of strength. If I'm strong enough, why would I care about the key points? To me, the path of Immortal Ascension is a smooth one. "
These bold and visionary words simply caused Hai Yunfan's beautiful face to turn pale, and she couldn't help but raise her head to look at the sky.
Wang Lu also raised his head. The sun was bright, the wind was clear, and the clouds were scattered. There wasn't even a single bird. What was there to see?
Hai Yunfan sighed. "I'm trying to see if there's going to be a lightning strike. To boast so much in front of Spirit Sword Mountain, even if there's going to be a lightning tribulation, I wouldn't be surprised."
Wang Lu was taken aback for a moment before bursting into laughter. "You are Hai Yunfan? Alright, I'll remember this. Once we enter the sect, I'll remember to protect you. "
"No problem." Hai Yunfan cupped his hands again and naturally approached Wang Lu. He walked side by side with Wang Lu, and the little attendant walked behind him.
Wang Lu didn't mind. As he walked, he asked, "I remember that you are the son of an official?"
"Oh?"
"That means your father is a high-ranking official."
"Fortunately, he's the emperor of the Grand Cloud Empire."
"Sh * t! Doesn't that mean you have three thousand stepmothers?"
"…"
"Em, in short, why did you abandon the promising path of being the crown prince and come here?"
Hai Yunfan smiled. "Compared with the wonders of the Immortal World, what's the point of power in the mortal world? As for the Immortal Cultivation, with the power of the Grand Cloud Empire, it's not difficult for them to send me to an ordinary sect. In the Grand Cloud Empire, White Dragon Temple and Merciful Cloud Mountain are ranked within the top four sects of the Wanxian League … "With that, his smile became slightly sarcastic." But compared to the top five sects of the Wanxian League, a mere four sects is like chewing wax, not to mention … "
Hai Yunfan looked at the sky and sighed. "Nowadays, except for the top five sects, almost no other sects can truly touch the Immortal Path. There are more than ten thousand big and small sects in the Wanxian League, but only these five sects have truly mastered the Immortal Path. Since I want to cultivate, naturally, I want to cultivate the Immortal Path. Otherwise, I might as well live a comfortable life as an emperor."
Wang Lu was surprised. "You know a lot."
"Since I've chosen this path, of course, I have to inquire a bit more … These are not secrets. Not to mention, among those who have come to the Spirit Sword Mountain to seek the Immortal Fate, who isn't well prepared? Trembling with fear? "
Wang Lu shrugged and smiled. He inwardly said, "I'm not. My tough life is like a naked exam, what the f * ck do I need to prepare for?"
The two of them walked side by side. The golden bridge stretched all the way up. It was quite steep, but neither of them felt tired. Gradually, they moved forward from the end of the line.
Looking at the teenagers who constantly passed by them, Hai Yunfan said, "Speaking of which, before this Spirit Sword Mountain's Immortal Gathering, the top five sects haven't opened their gates like this for more than a hundred years. Even if there is an occasional Immortal Gathering, it would be heavily restricted. So, this time, it's really a gathering of geniuses."
Wang Lu turned his head and looked around. "Indeed, there are a lot of second generations here. This is enough to hold a grand banquet."
Hai Yunfan said, "Hehe, these people are not only from illustrious backgrounds. At least, as far as I know, more than eighty percent of them have natural spirit roots, which are organic cultivators."
"What!?"
The errand boy, Wang Zhong, who was following behind, was extremely surprised. He couldn't help but ask, "How do you know?"
Hai Yunfan looked back and smiled. "Don't underestimate me, the prince of the Grand Cloud Empire. I know the names of most of the people here … Not to mention, without some real ability, who would dare to come to the Spirit Sword Mountain? Among the top five sects, the Spirit Sword Mountain and the Kunlun Immortal Sect are famous for being ancient sects. The Spirit Sword Mountain is even more stubborn than the Kunlun Immortal Sect. So far, there has never been an artificial spirit root in the mountain. Wouldn't it be humiliating for mortals to climb the mountain? "
While Hai Yunfan was talking, Wang Lu didn't seem to care at all. However, the little errand boy's face became more and more unsightly. Obviously, he remembered the Spirit Root Cultivation in his backpack.
Hai Yunfan couldn't help but laugh. "But then again, in this Immortal Gathering, the Lingjian School only requires students under the age of twelve, yet they didn't mention anything about spirit root. Perhaps they have changed their stubbornness? The remaining twenty percent of the one thousand people are here to bet their luck … "After a pause, he continued," But, I really don't think it's going to work. "
While talking, the three of them had been walking on the Golden Bridge for a long time. Gradually, they entered the clouds. Behind them, the Spirit Creek Town had shrunk to the size of a cardboard box. The little errand boy followed closely behind them, not daring to look back.
However, even so, they still couldn't see the end of the Golden Bridge. In front of them, there was no end to the Golden Bridge. Beside them, there were constantly exhausted teenagers who stopped moving forward. Unknowingly, the three of them had gradually walked to the front of the group.
Wang Lu clicked his tongue and said, "You bunch of childes really don't have endurance. You've only walked this small slope and you're already exhausted. You've already been drained by wine and women at such a young age."
It was just a normal teasing remark, but Hai Yunfan looked surprised after hearing it. He opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
Instead, it was the errand boy Wang Zhong who was behind him who complained, "Young master, I feel very tired walking. I can't hold on any longer."
Wang Lu frowned and said, "You usually eat a lot of fish and meat at home. Why are you as useless as that bunch of good-for-nothings? Didn't I just let you carry an extra food box? Why do you feel so wronged? "
Wang Zhong felt very wronged and said, "No, this road feels very strange. We didn't walk too far, but I'm so tired that I can't breathe …"
"Then breathe through your skin … Forget it, give me your luggage. You can go ahead with light luggage."
While sighing, Wang Lu took Wang Zhong's backpack, food box, and other things and effortlessly carried them on his back.
"That's strange. Why do I feel that walking is easier than walking on flat ground?"
"Young master, you've always been such a weirdo …"
The master and servant talked as they walked forward, but they didn't notice that Hai Yunfan who was beside them had a solemn look on his face.
Without his luggage, Wang Zhong felt much more relaxed and followed his young master's footsteps. This time, they didn't know how long they had walked in one breath. They were surrounded by a sea of clouds, and even the light of the Golden Bridge was somewhat obscured. The three of them walked in the middle, and they couldn't even see the edge of the Golden Bridge clearly. Most of the people who were walking before were almost overtaken. Only a few people were still walking in front, but they looked out of breath.
At this moment, even Wang Lu noticed something was wrong. "Is this the road of virginity? People who have lost their Pure Yang Body will get more and more tired as they walk? Speaking of which, Wang Zhong, when did you lose your virginity? "
"When did I!?"
"Then why are you sweating so much?"
"I …"
"As expected, I lost my virginity. Wang Zhong, you're really good."
The servant was about to kneel. "Young master, please don't say anymore …"
Hai Yunfan looked at them from the side and smiled. He said to Wang Lu, "You and the servant are also extraordinary. You've persisted all the way until now."
"What's so extraordinary about that? If the villagers can't even walk on the mountain path, they're worse than pigs. Moreover, this guy is the servant and he even needs the young master to carry his luggage. Who is the young master? "
Hai Yunfan shook his head. "You're asking too much … Alright, I've been very happy to travel together. However, all good things must come to an end. Let's part ways here."
"Eh!? What's wrong? "
Wang Lu widened his eyes in disappointment. Along the way, Hai Yunfan wasn't the only one who was happy. Wang Lu had lived in the Wang Family Village for more than ten years and this was the first time he felt like he had found a confidant! When he said that he would protect him after they reached the mountain, half of it was a joke, but the other half was true.
Although he was a mountain man, Wang Lu didn't treat Hai Yunfan as an outsider.
Hai Yunfan nodded at Wang Lu's kindness and explained, "It's nothing. I just feel that there's no need to force myself to move forward. This is enough."
Wang Lu still didn't understand.
"If you don't understand, then don't understand. Anyway, I've found a suitable position for myself. Next …"
Hai Yunfan walked to Wang Lu and said softly, "Be careful of your servant. He claims to be loyal, but he's a bit rebellious."
At this time, a gust of wind blew past. Wang Lu couldn't help but close his eyes. "What did you say?"
But when he turned around, Hai Yunfan had disappeared. When he asked Wang Zhong, Wang Zhong also indicated that he was puzzled.
The clouds around them became thicker, and the five meters around them became indistinguishable. Wang Lu touched his chin. "Could it be that he's gone with the wind and ascended to immortality?"
"Huh?"
"Come on, let's continue … I don't know when we'll end."
—
However, they didn't go too far.
It wasn't because they had reached the end, nor was it because Wang Lu was exhausted. It was because the servant couldn't walk anymore.
All the luggage had been put on Wang Lu's back. But as they kept moving forward, the servant lost more and more strength. In the end, he almost lay on the ground and couldn't get up.
"I say, you …"
Before Wang Lu could say anything, the servant hurriedly said, "Young Master, you go first. Wang Zhong is useless and can only send you here."
"That's why I told you not to come at the beginning. Now you're putting on such a righteous face …" Wang Lu helplessly looked at Wang Zhong, who was almost paralyzed. Finally, he shook his head and said, "Forget it. I can't leave you here alone. I'll accompany you to rest for a while. Alas, there are only a few people left in front of us … Although I don't know what's the benefit of chasing the first place, it's still an achievement."
Wang Zhong was even more ashamed. He lowered his head and said nothing.
Wang Lu didn't say anything more. He put down the luggage and sat on the ground. However, as soon as he sat down, the clouds and fog around them dispersed and the golden light dimmed. A lush valley suddenly appeared beside them.
Wang Lu opened his mouth and looked at the sudden change of the surroundings.
"… This, this is time travel?"
