Sixth Level of the Tower of Trials Mission: Kill the Golden Thread Nether Snake.
Mission Time: Six hours.
Xia Ruofei looked at the simple mission description and was momentarily stunned.
There was no requirement for the number of snakes, which meant that he only needed to kill one "Golden Thread Nether Snake" to complete the mission?
Thinking of this, Xia Ruofei did not feel relaxed. Instead, he felt that the pressure had multiplied.
The mission had a time limit of six hours, which was six hours. If he could not complete the mission within this time limit, the result was self-evident. He would definitely be directly transported out of the Tower of Trials and would never have the opportunity to enter the higher levels of the Tower of Trials.
And there was no requirement for the number of snakes, which meant that the difficulty of this mission was extremely high.
If it was easy to only kill one Golden Thread Nether Snake in six hours, it would not have appeared as a mission for the sixth level of the Tower of Trials.
Ling Qingxue saw that Xia Ruofei had suddenly stopped talking and could not help but ask, "Ruofei, what's wrong?"
Xia Ruofei said in a low voice, "I've already received the mission for the sixth level of the Tower of Trials. It will probably be more troublesome."
Then, Xia Ruofei described the mission's contents to Ling Qingxue and said, "I'm afraid that this Golden Thread Nether Snake will not be easy to deal with. We have to be mentally prepared."
Ling Qingxue nodded and said, "Definitely! Ruofei, the time for the mission has already started, right? We don't have time to think too much. Waiting here is not a solution. We have to hurry! "
"En!" Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Qingxue, you have to follow me closely. Don't worry, if anything unexpected happens, I will first ensure your safety!"
"I'm not as weak as you think!" Ling Qingxue smiled and said, "No matter what, my mental strength is comparable to that of a Golden Core Stage cultivator! You still have to focus your energy on completing the mission. I still have a certain amount of ability to protect myself! "
"Got it!"
As soon as Xia Ruofei finished speaking, he noticed that new words had appeared on the Perceptive Mirror's mission prompt panel. He hurriedly looked at it.
On the Mission Notification Panel, it was written: The adult Gold Thread Nether Snake has a black body and three one-inch golden lines on its head. Its cultivation is comparable to that of a cultivator at the peak of the late Golden Core stage. It is extremely fast and its scales and fangs are highly poisonous. It can spit out a highly corrosive poisonous mist. It is extremely dangerous.
Xia Ruofei told Ling Qingxue what he had seen, and then muttered, "At least there are some hints this time, so we won't have to look around blindly!"
Ling Qingxue frowned and said, "This means that the Golden Thread Nether Snake is not easy to deal with! From what we know, a cultivator at the peak of the late Golden Core stage is already much more powerful than us. Furthermore, their entire bodies are highly toxic, and they can even spit out poisonous fog … "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "No matter what, having information is better than having no information at all! Let's go! Let's go and meet this Golden Thread Nether Snake! "
After saying that, Xia Ruofei held Ling Qingxue's hand and walked towards the edge of the cliff. The mountaintop was only about three kilometers in radius, and there was no vegetation. It could be seen clearly at a glance. Naturally, the Golden Thread Nether Snake could not be at the top of the mountain. Therefore, Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue could only climb down to be able to find traces of the Golden Thread Nether Snake.
The mountaintop was extremely steep, and the cliff looked as if it had been cut by a knife or an axe. Especially the section near the top, it was basically 90 degrees vertical.
It was basically impossible for an ordinary person to climb down from such a cliff. However, for a cultivator, it was only slightly more troublesome, but not completely helpless.
Of course, Xia Ruofei could totally fly down with Ling Qingxue on his sword.
However, when the situation was unclear, it was very dangerous to fly down directly on his sword. Once he encountered an attack in the air, the space to dodge and move would be limited.
Moreover, Xia Ruofei had always been traumatized by flying too high on his sword.
Last time, Xia Ruofei had only flown to the top of a tree, and he had already felt his heart palpitate. However, the mountaintop was not low, and the clouds and mist were at the mountainside. Xia Ruofei naturally did not want to rashly use the sword to fly.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei decided to use a safer method.
He directly took out several large rolls of climbing rope from the Ring-Tu space, and then used a very professional method to skillfully connect these climbing ropes together.
Xia Ruofei calculated that these ropes were almost a thousand meters long. This was also because Xia Ruofei had the Ring-Tu space. Otherwise, any mountain climber or climbing enthusiast would not be able to bear the weight of carrying such a long rope.
Then, Xia Ruofei took out the largest fixed nails and easily hammered a few large nails deep into the stone ground at the edge of the cliff.
The stone of the cliff was very hard, but Xia Ruofei used his Primordial Qi and hammered the nails deep into the ground in a few moments.
He passed the rope through the fixing rings at the top of the nails and tied a few very professional knots. Then, he stretched out his hand and gently pulled to test the strength of the rope.
After making sure that there was no problem, Xia Ruofei grabbed the rope and threw it down the cliff.
"Qingxue, I'll go down first! You're above me. Let's not be too far away, keep within two meters! "Xia Ruofei said.
"Okay!" Ling Qingxue said.
Xia Ruofei lifted the rope a little, grabbed it in his hand, and directly jumped down. Then, he supported his legs on the cliff and firmly fixed his body.
Xia Ruofei looked up and shouted, "Qingxue, down!"
Ling Qingxue also squatted down and grabbed the rope with one hand. Then, she turned her body and floated to the edge of the cliff very elegantly.
In a situation where there was no protection, doing such a move would definitely be very dangerous for ordinary people, but for cultivators, it was not difficult at all.
Because the situation below was unknown, Xia Ruofei carefully released the Qu Shuang Flying Sword and the Green Traveling Immortal Sword, one left and one right to keep watch.
This was also one of the reasons why Xia Ruofei did not choose to use the Qu Shuang Flying Sword directly. This way, the Qu Shuang Flying Sword could be used as a warning. After all, in this Training Tower, he was most comfortable using the Qu Shuang Flying Sword.
And the Qu Shuang Flying Sword was at Xia Ruofei's feet. If there was really an emergency, Xia Ruofei could jump on the flying sword at any time and use the Qu Shuang Flying Sword to avoid danger.
"Let's go down slowly!" Xia Ruofei looked up and said.
"Okay!" Ling Qingxue replied loudly.
The two of them grabbed the rope with both hands and supported their legs on the cliff. Their hands alternated, and their bodies slowly descended bit by bit.
From a distance, Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue looked like two ants against the backdrop of the huge cliff, slowly climbing down along the cliff.
When the height of the cliff was lowered by dozens of meters, the angle of the cliff was not so steep anymore. At least, it was not close to a 90-degree angle. It was relatively flat, so Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue's legs were more stressed, and the speed of their descent increased a little.
In this way, the two of them used about 20 minutes to descend about 200 meters.
Xia Ruofei looked up and shouted, "Qingxue, stop and rest first!"
"I'm not tired!" Ling Qingxue said with a smile.
Indeed, for cultivators, this seemingly thrilling rock climbing activity did not consume much physical strength. Even Ling Qingxue, who looked very delicate, did not sweat much at this time. Naturally, she was not tired.
Xia Ruofei said, "The cloud area is below. I'm afraid that there might be some unknown danger. Let's take a break to adjust our state, and then I'll go in and explore!"
Ling Qingxue heard this and nodded and said, "Oh! Then I'll listen to you! "
Xia Ruofei nodded and directly took out the Qu Shuang Flying Sword and the Green Fairy Sword, and slashed at the cliff fiercely.
Suddenly, stone chips flew everywhere. After a while, a small platform that could barely accommodate two people was dug out.
"Come down and rest!" Xia Ruofei gently jumped onto the small platform, then looked up and said with a smile.
Ling Qingxue nodded and slid down. Xia Ruofei directly reached out and hugged her. Then, the two of them retreated to the small platform together.
After Xia Ruofei helped Ling Qingxue sit down, he smiled and asked, "Are you really not tired?"
"Not tired!" Ling Qingxue said, "Ruofei, actually, we don't need to rest. Just climbing the mountain took almost half an hour. The mission time is very tight."
Xia Ruofei frowned slightly and said, "I know the time is tight, but we can't be reckless. The cloud below is so thick that we don't know what's going on. It's better to be careful!"
"And …" Xia Ruofei said, "I keep feeling that something is wrong! It's too quiet here, so quiet that it's a little strange … "
Ling Qingxue shrank her neck and said, "It's a little scary …"
"Also, I feel that the rope is obviously lighter!" Xia Ruofei said with a serious face.
"What?" Ling Qingxue didn't react for a moment.
Xia Ruofei directly reached out and pulled the rope up. He felt that it was very light. Sure enough, after pulling for about ten or twenty meters, it had reached the end.
Xia Ruofei showed Ling Qingxue the broken rope. Ling Qingxue looked carefully, then her face became very serious and said, "It seems to have corroded …"
Xia Ruofei said in a low voice, "If I'm not wrong, there might be a problem with the cloud below!"
"Yes!" Ling Qingxue also reacted. "Judging from the remaining length of the rope, the remaining part is above the cloud. Basically, it broke as soon as it entered the cloud area …"
"It could also be that it was completely corroded …" Xia Ruofei said.
"Ah?" Ling Qingxue couldn't help but show a hint of worry. "Then how are we going to go down? If we can't go down, how are we going to find the Golden Thread Netherworld Snake? "
Xia Ruofei said calmly, "Don't worry, we still have to confirm it first!"
After saying that, Xia Ruofei took out a stainless steel pipe and a PPR tube from the Ring-Tu space. Then, he used his spiritual power to lift them and slowly lowered them down the cliff.
The platform where Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue were resting on was about ten meters away from the cloud area. Soon, Xia Ruofei used his spiritual power to grab the two tubes and reached the cloud area.
Xia Ruofei was even more careful. He slowly extended the two tubes into the cloud area and then immediately lifted them up.
At this time, the part of the tubes that entered the cloud area had completely disappeared.
Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue looked at each other, and both of them were shocked.
The corrosive nature of the mist had already exceeded their expectations. Just now, the tubes had entered the cloud area for at most one or two seconds, but as long as the part of the tubes that entered the cloud area, it was completely corroded, and not a single bit was left.
Xia Ruofei picked up the two tubes and looked at them. He found that the fractures were uneven and there were obvious traces of corrosion.
"This …" Ling Qingxue couldn't help but show a hint of fear.
Xia Ruofei's face was also very pale. He found items of different materials from the Ring-Tu space and tested them separately.
They found that the cloud below not only corroded items quickly, but it could also corrode almost all materials. It was just a matter of speed.
Xia Ruofei even tried using glass products and found that they were also corroded by the cloud.
He almost threw a living person into the cloud. There were many living people in the Ring-Tu space, but Xia Ruofei wasn't a cruel person. There was a high probability that even if he threw a person into the cloud, not even his bones would be left. Why would he want to increase the sin of killing?
Ling Qingxue felt a trace of helplessness. In such an environment, how could she enter the cloudy area? If they couldn't even see the Golden Thread Nether Snake, how could they complete the mission?
Xia Ruofei's brain worked quickly and said, "There's one more thing that we haven't tried …"
Ling Qingxue also immediately thought of it. She hesitated and said, "You mean … the extravehicular spacesuit?"
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Yes! The extravehicular spacesuit is designed to deal with the harsh space environment. Its corrosion resistance is definitely much stronger than ordinary materials! "
"But it's too dangerous …" Ling Qingxue said, "Although we all have a backup, if it's damaged, the return trip …"
"Actually, the return trip from the Moon to Earth is relatively safe. We didn't use a backup spacesuit on the way here, right?" Xia Ruofei said, "I'll take one out and try it out! It's settled then … "
Ling Qingxue saw that Xia Ruofei had made up his mind, and they really couldn't afford to waste time. She reluctantly nodded and said, "Okay! Let's give it a try … "
Xia Ruofei didn't say anything. He took out the spacesuit he had used on the way here, grabbed it with his mind power, and slowly sent it down.
Ling Qingxue nervously poked her head out and stared at the slowly descending spacesuit.
Xia Ruofei was fully focused. Soon, the spacesuit descended to a position about half a meter above the cloud. Then, Xia Ruofei made up his mind and sent the lower half of the spacesuit into the cloud. After a few seconds, he suddenly grabbed it.
At first glance, the two of them saw that the outer appearance of the spacesuit was still intact. They couldn't help but feel happy.
Soon, the spacesuit was grabbed by Xia Ruofei and placed on the small platform that he had just set up. Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue quickly went over to check it out.
They saw that the lower half of the spacesuit had obvious traces of corrosion, but it was still relatively intact. Xia Ruofei turned on the power and tested the airtightness of the spacesuit. He found that the airtightness was still good, which meant that there was no obvious damage. Although the surface was corroded, there was no penetration.
