It was snowing heavily, and strong winds were blowing.
In the heavy snow, Lu An rode his black horse toward Mount Dacheng Sky Mountain. As he didn't know how far Mount Dacheng Sky Mountain was from him, he rode his horse at a moderate speed.
In front of him was endless snow. In this kind of weather, he couldn't see more than 30 meters. Lu An narrowed his eyes as he rode, trying to see as far as possible.
After leaving Shangcheng City, there was only a straight road in front of him. This road only led to Mount Dacheng Sky Mountain. There was no one else on the road besides him.
"Da da da!"
Even the sturdy black horse's speed was greatly affected in such a heavy snowstorm. Even its body was swaying from the wind, and the more it moved forward, the more difficult it became for it to move forward.
Lu An's black cloak was also completely parallel to the ground. It fluttered loudly, and it created a lot of resistance for Lu An. Lu An took off his cloak and placed it in his ring. He wore a light blue, thick cloth shirt and continued forward.
Fortunately, he wasn't afraid of the cold. Otherwise, an ordinary person would have fainted in such a cold weather outside Shangcheng City.
Lu An urged his horse forward. There was no end to the road in front of him, and he became more and more uncertain. Just as he couldn't help but stop to think if he was going the wrong way, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in front of him!
It was the outline of a mountain!
"Giddy up!" Lu An narrowed his eyes and shouted. The horse beneath him neighed as well, as if it had seen hope and charged forward!
However, although he could see the outline of the mountain, it was still very far away. After galloping for a long time, Lu An finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
"Neigh!" Lu An pulled the reins, and the horse stopped with a long neigh. He frowned as he looked at the straight mountain path in front of him.
This mountain path was very wide, and it could accommodate five horses walking side by side. However, the wind and snow on the road seemed to be heavier. Lu An could faintly feel that there were other forces mixed in the wind and snow.
At that moment, Lu An saw a shabby stone tablet at the entrance of the mountain. He led his horse closer and saw that there were four words on the tablet.
"We'll walk up the mountain."
Lu An was startled. Then, he saw a stone pillar not far away. There were a few empty reins on the stone pillar. It seemed that the horse had been left here. However, he was a little curious. Where did the horses of those people go? Why were they all gone?
After thinking for a long time, Lu An tied the black horse to the stone pillar, squeezed the reins tightly and said, "Whether I succeed or not, I will come down the mountain to pick you up. Don't leave!"
The black horse neighed as if it had heard Lu An's words. Lu An smiled and patted the horse's back. Then, he strode towards the mountain pass.
Just as he reached the mountain pass, Lu An's footsteps came to a halt. At this moment, he was only one step away from the entrance. He seemed to be able to hear the air currents roaring inside, as if he would enter another world if he took another step forward.
Lu An frowned, took a deep breath, and took a step forward.
Whoosh!
The moment Lu An entered the mountain path, the wind seemed to be ten times sharper. It scraped Lu An's face like a knife. The roaring wind was exceptionally noisy, making it impossible for anyone to hear anything else.
It was as if his eardrums were about to burst. Lu An frowned and subconsciously covered his ears with his hands. Only then did he feel much better. Then, he used Deep Ice to form a shield in his ears to prevent the wind from hurting his ears.
Although Lu An's clothes were much thinner in such an environment, Lu An did not feel cold. It was just that the air pressure brought by the wind made it difficult for him to breathe. Moreover, it created a great resistance from above.
However, such resistance was difficult for ordinary people to move. For a Level 1 Divine Master, it was only a hindrance.
Lu An's eyes turned cold. Without hesitation, he filled his body with the Fate Wheel and ran forward quickly!
Suddenly, at the beginning of the long mountain path, Lu An's figure cut through the wind like a sharp dagger. He chased forward quickly!

The mountain path was indeed very long. It was so long that it seemed to have no end. It was even more suspicious than the path to the foot of the mountain. Lu An moved forward at a constant speed in the wind. The further he went, the stronger the wind and the heavier the snow. It was as if the wind was blowing from the top of the mountain. Gradually, the wind started to hurt people.
The incoming snowflakes felt like a slap to his face, and the wind felt like it was going to cut his face open. Lu An had no choice but to form a thin layer of ice on the surface of his body. If someone could see Lu An, they would realize that his entire body was reflecting light. It was as if he was running like an ice man.
There were three stages in the mountain. This mountain path should be one of them.
Even Lu An felt a great resistance. His speed was obviously not as fast as before. The pressure brought by the wind made it difficult for him to breathe. It made him weaker and weaker.
This was under the premise that he was not afraid of the cold. If it were other Divine Masters, they would need to use their Divine Origin Energy to resist the cold. That would consume even more Divine Origin Energy.
When he came to a high place, Lu An was shocked to find that the mountain path was still endless. This mountain path did not lead to the top of the mountain. It led to the depths of the mountain.
At this time, his Fate Wheel had been used up by nearly 20%. At this speed, he might be exhausted. Although he had more Fate Wheels than other Divine Masters of the same level, there would be a time when he would run out.
Taking a deep breath, Lu An exhaled a mouthful of white fog and continued forward. At this time, he had only taken a few steps when he found a snow bag in front of him.
Lu An was stunned. He felt that it was a person who had fallen on the ground. He quickly ran over. Just as he expected, he had seen this person this morning. At this time, he was buried in the snow and was dying. His body was as cold as a corpse.
"Friend! Friend! " Lu An shook the person hard. The person did not respond as if he was really dead. His frozen body was completely frozen.
Lu An frowned. He stretched out his finger and placed it on the person's neck. He found a weak pulse. He was delighted. Then, Lu An slammed his right hand on the ground and shouted at the same time.
"Out!"
In an instant, the Deep Ice rose from the ground in a square and covered the two. At the same time, it stopped at a height of five feet and sealed the top.
Then, Lu An quickly took out an elixir from his ring and put it into the person's mouth. This was a "Yang Recovery Elixir", which was the most suitable for such a person.
As expected, the Yang Recovery Elixir worked immediately. The frosty face turned red. The ice and snow melted and the body gradually warmed up.
Seeing this, Lu An was relieved and put the person on the ground. The space created by the Deep Ice was strong enough to resist the wind. Together with the effect of the Yang Recovery Elixir, it was enough to support the person until he fully recovered.
Turning around, Lu An opened a gap and walked out. This ice house also consumed some of his Fate Wheel. There was still a long way to go. He had to use it sparingly.
However, when he walked less than one mile, another person was lying on the ground.
Lu An frowned and quickly came to this person. This person's situation was similar to the previous person's, so Lu An followed the same pattern and did the exact same thing.
Then, after another mile, another person appeared.
Along the way, Lu An would see people lying on the ground every one or two miles. He was not selfless. He knew that saving each person would consume some of his Fate Wheel. Even so, he had to save them.
Lu An had been in awe of life since he was a child. This might have something to do with his experience.
Therefore, he saved 11 people along the way and consumed many Fate Wheels and Yang Recovery Elixirs. However, what made him frown was the endless mountain path. He had less than half of his Fate Wheel left. He was patient, but he was afraid that he would fall in the snow like these people.
However, when he saved the 11th person and walked to the peak, he suddenly found that there was no mountain path in front of him. Instead, there was a thick iron chain that connected to the peak on the opposite side. Lu An frowned. He walked closer and bent down to look at the iron chain. He touched it and found that it was cold to the bone.
Not only that, in such an environment, the iron chain had been covered with a layer of hard ice and was as smooth as a mirror. In addition, the iron chain was swaying in the wind. It was impossible for people to stand on it.
The valley was deep. Once someone fell down, they would probably die!
Listening to the howling of the wind in the valley, which sounded like the wailing of ghosts and howling of wolves, it was as if the ghosts and gods were pressing for their lives, making them want to retreat. However, Lu An just frowned and stepped on it without hesitation.
