The closer they got to the edge of the Sixty Thousand Mountains, the more astonishing the mountain range in front of them became.
The entire mountain range was black and almost barren. It was thousands of feet high and almost perpendicular to the ground. It was difficult for apes and monkeys to climb and even birds to cross. However, the top of the mountain was golden under the sun and looked strangely beautiful.
Xu Gongsou's eyes were filled with fascination as he chanted loudly.
"Ten thousand feet in the clouds, the sun and moon shine on the golden platform!"
Yin Yu, who was two meters tall and had thick eyebrows and big eyes, said, "The yellow crane can't fly too fast, and the ape wants to climb."
Great Xia emphasized literature, but there was little entertainment in this world. Most of the top experts had dabbled in music, chess, calligraphy, and poetry.
If it was an aboriginal expert, he could only sigh and say, "Damn, it's so f * cking high and so f * cking steep!"
Li Fu had these words in his mind, but he was too embarrassed to say them out loud.
He was a blacksmith and had been running around all his life. Other than smithing, beating people, and surviving in the wilderness, he knew almost nothing else.
"This doesn't look like a cliff … It looks like a huge wall. The majesty of heaven and earth is really amazing," Yin Yu, who was close to the cliff, couldn't help but say.
The continuous mountain range that they could see from afar was now completely revealed to them. Other than a few cracks in the distance, the rest of the mountain range was a straight line of cliffs. There were layers of lines on the cliffs, as if they were formed by some kind of black substance that flowed down and solidified.
Other than that, there was almost no place to stay.
If it wasn't for the fact that the mountain range was so huge, they would have believed that it was a man-made wall that separated the Sixty Thousand Mountains from the other side. The two cracks that they could see were where the doors were.
"There are probably foreign tribes at the two cracks. Let's not alarm them and go up to the top to see what's going on," Li Fu said.
As for the lack of a place to stay, it was easy to deal with.
Xu Gongsou touched the surface of the cliff. It seemed to be made of metal and stone, but he didn't know what material it was.
In fact, they had seen many things in the Sixty Thousand Mountains that they had never seen before, so they weren't surprised.
Xu Gongsou pecked the cliff with his fingers, making a metallic sound. He only felt a strong force rebounding his fingers. He quickly shook his hand and took a few steps back. His fingers were slightly red and swollen.
Everyone was surprised to see this.
Xu Gongsou was one of the top ten experts in the world, able to break steel with a casual strike. Yet, not only did he fail to damage the cliff in front of him, he even suffered a small loss.
"This isn't an ordinary rock or ore …"
This sentence was nonsense, and everyone could see it now.
"Let me try!" Gao Yi raised his right hand, and a long spear appeared in his hand.
Xu Gongsou was one of the top ten experts in the world, yet he could not even injure him with a single strike. Although he had not used his full strength, the sturdiness of the cliff in front of him was evident.
In this way, the experts who were weaker than him and were mostly empty-handed didn't need to make a move.
Gao Yi was ranked around the twentieth strongest expert in the world. The spear in his hand was extremely sharp, and it was a good opportunity for him to test it out.
Following a few soft sounds, sparks burst forth. Gao Yi's expression changed slightly. Not only was this mountain wall incomparably hard, but there was also a rebounding force when the tip of the spear touched it, making him feel rather uncomfortable.
He poured his Divine Will into the body of the spear, but in the end, it only left a few marks the size of rice grains on the cliff.
"I don't believe that every part of it is so hard." Gao Yi's expression changed, and his body moved continuously. Following his figure, from low to high, from left to right, the sounds of collisions rang out incessantly.
This time, everyone's expression changed greatly.
The cliff with a circumference of a few hundred meters was actually made of such a material. It was incomparably hard and difficult to destroy with human strength.
"Is this cliff really a natural wonder? How could human strength create such a vast mountain range? Even the ancient human emperors couldn't have done it. How exactly was this cliff formed? "Everyone felt that it was inconceivable.
Li Fu stared at the cliff with rapt attention. A short rod appeared in his hand, and he fiercely tapped it forward. Like the sound of glass shattering, the cliff where the short rod landed cracked like a spider web. When the rod tapped it again, the cliff shattered into pieces, revealing a hole the size of a bowl.
Everyone didn't know that Li Fu had already used the God's Rod, which could see the weakness of an object, and only made such a small hole. They only felt that he was worthy of being the world's number one expert. The cliff that everyone was helpless against was broken into such a large piece with just one tap of his rod.
"This is metal?" Someone picked up the broken piece and asked in surprise.
"It doesn't look like metal. It feels strange, somewhat like metal, but also like rock." Someone held it under the sunlight and said in surprise, "This thing can actually transmit light!"
One had to know that metals weren't able to transmit light. Most of the things that could transmit light were gems, crystals, jades, and other minerals like those in Dayao.
However, this material was completely different to the touch. It was very rough, but it could transmit light, which amazed everyone.
Li Fu tapped the ground with his rod again, causing the soil within a circumference of several meters to explode. The rock exposed below was as solid as the cliff wall.
Following Li Fu's action, everyone started to work. In a short while, a large pit that was tens of meters deep was formed on the ground. The exposed base of the cliff was the same as the top. Only then did everyone give up.
"The things here are different from what we know in the past. Let's check out the situation of the two gaps first." Li Fu pondered for a moment and said.
Originally, he wanted to climb to the top of the mountain and check out the two gaps. However, he needed to use the God's Rod to form a foothold to climb to the top of the mountain. Even with his full strength, he could only use the rod six times. It was three kilometers high, and each gap was 20 meters. He needed at least 150 gaps.
In addition, the higher he climbed, the more difficult it would be, and the greater the consumption. He estimated that it would take at least one to two months.
Instead of doing this, it was better to check out the surrounding situation first.
"Go check out the two gaps and see if there's a place to climb to the top of the mountain. Be careful of the foreign races and don't get discovered, "Li Fu ordered.
In fact, when everyone came here, the situation of the cliff was almost the same as before. They couldn't see any place to climb to the top of the mountain, and they were just doing this while checking out the gaps.
There were a total of 32 people present. After destroying the villages of the Thunder Barbarians and the Eight-Armed Race, everyone was divided into three teams. One team was led by Qi Ziting and the other aboriginals to continue searching for the traces of the first emperor of Dayao and the ministers who had disappeared.
The others were divided into two teams. One was to search for the scattered Eight-Armed Race members, and the other was to find the exit. At the same time, if they encountered other foreign races and were discovered, they could use their superior strength to destroy the foreign race's village.
One day later, everyone was within a radius of several kilometers of a gap.
The roar of a monster could be heard in the distance.
A moment later, everyone rushed over to investigate and found that it was a wild boar-like beast with scales and horns on its head. It was seven meters tall and more than 12 meters long, standing there like a small hill.
Even from a distance, they could feel the ferocity of the beast, which was at least at the level of a God.
On the back of the beast, there were three hairy foreign races that looked like humans.
"There are indeed foreign races!" No one was surprised. There were only two gaps within a radius of 500 kilometers. It would be strange if there were no foreign races.
"Be careful and observe from afar. Don't go near the east. That side is windy, and the beasts usually have a stronger sense of smell," an expert who looked like a child said. An expert who looked like a child said. His name was Golden Child, also known as Wealth Child. He was known for being rich, very rich, even richer than the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The imperial family of Great Xia only had a history of a few hundred years, but the Jin family had been around for thousands of years and had a deep foundation.
"There are some beasts' corpses tied to the beast. It seems that they have returned from hunting. Follow them carefully and you will be able to find their location."
Just as they expected, these foreign races had returned from hunting and did not realize that a few humans were observing them from afar.
There had been no beasts in the two boundaries here for more than 1,000 years. Hence, they were very relaxed and returned to the village with their prey.
Everyone watched from afar as they left the Sixty Thousand Mountains, passed through the exit, and went to the outside world.
At this point, everyone knew that the exit was about 1.5 kilometers wide and 2.5 kilometers thick. This meant that the mountain range was 2.5 kilometers thick and about 2,500 meters wide.
However, they did not know if there were other foreign races, so they did not dare to act rashly.
It was not until late at night that they finally found their way to the exit. As soon as they arrived, they could feel the strong wind blowing into their bodies and even into their minds.
"This is …"
"This wind is very beneficial to us martial artists! If we practice here, we will get twice the results with half the effort. I also feel that my bottleneck seems to have loosened by more than half. As long as we find a secluded place to practice in the outside world and spend some time, we will be able to break through, "an expert said in surprise.
"Sure enough, the outside world is very different from where we came from. In this environment, practitioners who were originally stuck at the Earth Wheel level can also cultivate to the Spirit Wheel level."
Everyone's faces were filled with wild joy.
It was exactly as Ren Baqian had said.
As long as they could get out, everyone could advance further!
