Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

The thirty-ninth floor!
This is a number that is enough to shock many aristocratic families.

The difficulty of the challenge at Douhun Peak has increased a lot compared to the beginning as time goes by.

Although there are some tricks, it still takes many attempts to gain some experience.

It was already quite exaggerated to reach the 30th floor directly for the first time, not to mention Yang Jingchu who had to go through it nine times in different time periods.

It can be said that the difficulty after the 30th floor has been raised to a higher level.

嗏

"After another round of fighting, my energy and blood have been used up, and my injuries have accumulated to a point where they are too severe."

"The knife pierced through his chest and abdomen diagonally, his heart was ruptured, his lungs had penetrating wounds, and his body had multiple fractures."

"Well, I can still stand, and I'm not completely incapacitated, but even walking is a little difficult, let alone climbing."

"I never thought that even this 100-meter distance would be an obstacle in the end..."

Feeling the multiple injuries all over his body, Jiang Yue showed a self-deprecating smile.

Is the thirty-ninth floor his current limit?
Perhaps, it is already good to have such an achievement. Climbing cannot be done by just rushing up with willpower, but one must also do it within one's ability.

嗏

not enough!
Under the continuous challenges, Jiang Yue felt a surge of pride in his heart.

The fighting spirit left by Yang Jingchu in the past is of a slightly different age.

I think it must have been several years of hard work, climbing up step by step.

Being able to defeat him in several time periods in such a short period of time, Jiang Yue can be said to have put what he has learned to the extreme.

But how could he be satisfied with this?

There is a million miles of blood sea in his body, and he has so many supernatural powers. Isn't it just for the purpose of having more means than humans?

"call…"

Jiang Yue took another long breath, took a step forward and shook his body.

Supernatural powers. Three heads and six arms!

In an instant, the eyes of the three heads were burning with bright golden light, as if they could see through the numerous obstacles of the thousand-foot-high mountain and perceive the danger hidden in the cracks of the rocks.

The muscles of the six strong arms were taut, and the blue veins bulged like dragons and snakes. One hand tightly grasped the protruding rock, and the rock instantly had several cracks, and the fingers were tightly clenched into it.

The howling wind tried to pull Jiang Yue off the cliff. His hair was dancing wildly, his three heads were roaring in unison, and his six arms were working in coordination. He was like a sophisticated and violent climbing machine. With every step, he bravely advanced towards the top of the mountain which was shrouded in clouds and mist and difficult for birds to fly over. He vowed to trample the power of this mountain god under his feet.

On the 40th floor platform, Jiang Yue looked normal, as if his horrific injuries did not exist.

Plop, plop…

The heart was beating like a war drum, the ruptured wound had been repaired, and some granulation tissue had grown on the horrible injuries on the body.

This is the terrifying recovery ability of the Immortal Immortal Technique!
Jiang Yue now is able to survive even if his heart is completely blown into pieces. Even if his entire body is destroyed, he can slowly recover, as long as his head is still there.

If the Immortal Technique of Immortality were to advance further, the recovery ability would probably be even more terrifying, and he might be able to survive with only some flesh and blood left.

Even if one cultivates to perfection, rebirth by dripping blood is no problem!
“My energy and blood are completely depleted, but even if I fight with only my physical strength, I am still not weaker than others.”

"Come on, fight with all your strength!"

Jiang Yue's three heads all grinned grimly, but the fighting spirit in front of him did not respond and just kept drawing his sword.

Although they appear to be the same person, the pressure Jiang Yue feels from the other person can be said to be getting greater and greater.

From minor injuries at the beginning to serious injuries, and even to the point where he was almost on the verge of death, Yang Jingchu's progress over the years has been clearly demonstrated in a short period of time.

But even under such pressure, Jiang Yue felt as if he had realized something, and all he needed was an opportunity.

Perhaps, the way of killing can only be understood between life and death!

.........

On the top of the peak, the ancient bell that had gone through many vicissitudes of life trembled suddenly. The powerful and long bell sounded like the roar of a prehistoric beast that had been released, and it broke through the sky with a "hum".

The sound waves were like surging tides, with Douhun Peak as the center, rolling and rushing in all directions. In an instant, the powerful sound waves swept across the entire mountain city!

The sound of the bell rang through the streets and alleys, making the roof tiles tremble and the doors and windows hum. No matter if the people were busy in the hustle and bustle of the city or quietly at home, they were all pierced by the sudden and resounding bell sound. They all raised their heads and looked towards the Douhun Peak where the bell sound came from, with surprised expressions on their faces.

The bell on the fortieth floor rings!
"Go and invite the head of the family. I'm afraid we're going to witness history today. How many years has it been since we climbed to the 40th floor?"

"How could such a person come from such a desolate place like Yunzhou? There are so many heroes in the world!"

"According to rumors, the two people who climbed the peak from the Sky Patrol seem to be less than 30 years old. At this age, they can..."

"He has surpassed more than ten Jade Tower masters in a row. It is impossible for him to be promoted to a marquis! A marquis in his twenties? The resources of the lower state can actually cultivate such a person."

For most common people, they gathered here just to watch the fun, and even most warriors did not understand how valuable the sound of the bell was.

All they knew was that the ancient bell on the 40th floor had not rung for more than ten years.

But for the prominent families in the city, the sound of the bell made their faces change and they became more curious about the specific identity of the person on the peak.

It is said that they are from the Sky Patrol Department in Yunzhou...

The lower state is poor and has not received any luck, so its average strength should be much lower than theirs.

But even as they are a big family in the upper state, there has never been such a person in their family. How did the other party do it?
"Today, my Li family has become a stepping stone for the other party..."

Among the crowd, Li Jianfei looked particularly worried, his fingers tightly grasping the message talisman, and for a moment he was at a loss for words.

Originally, I brought my younger generation here to train today. At first, I wanted to compete with the other party, but now it seems...

Not even close.

Not to mention surpassing others, being able to pass the 20th floor is already a great joy, at least it is not so embarrassing.

How does this compare?
His face was solemn, and he thought to himself that today must have been the wrong day.

I just hope that the younger generations in my family won’t be influenced by it.

After all, Li Jianfei saw it clearly at that time. The two men were indeed only juniors, but although they were of similar age, their strengths were incomparable.

After thinking for a long time, he told the head of the family the matter in detail.

"Forty floors..."

"Inspector Miao is indeed the youngest marquis in Yunzhou. He is not at all inferior even after coming to Shangzhou!"

"But Junior Brother is not bad either. At least he has replaced him as the youngest inspector..."

Looking at the huge crowd in the distance, Yuan Gang couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

Today, their Patrol Sky Division was in the limelight. Breaking through the 40th floor in one fell swoop was rare even in the history of Douhun Peak since the emergence of the mountain god!
After all, although there is no specific limit on strength, if one has reached the level of a king, he will not bother with those rewards.

Just like the person who set the record at the time was Yang Jingchu, who was just conferred the title of Marquis. The reason why he did not continue to challenge it was to leave a way for those who came after him.

Otherwise, a fighting spirit at the King level... not to mention whether the mountain god can simulate its full strength, even if he can only imitate a little bit of it, how many people can pass it?
When he first achieved the title of Marquis, Yang Jingchu once said that no one would be able to break this record within the next fifty years.

"If there is enough time, Miao Xingyu might be able to give it a try."

"It's a pity that there are only three days. It may not be enough."

"I don't know which level my junior brother has reached..."

When the two of them went to challenge together, Yuan Gang naturally would not have thought that Jiang Yue would be the one at the forefront.

In his subconscious, the person who challenged the fortieth level must be Miao Xingyu who had already reached the Marquis realm. He never expected that Jiang Yue was even faster.

"More and more people are coming, all waiting for the final result."

"I have to inform the general immediately... Never mind, let's wait for those real aristocratic families to send people over."

Just as Yuan Gang was about to pick up the token, he saw Li Jianfei with a grim look on his face in the crowd in the distance, and thought to himself that it would be better not to attack the other party at this time.

I can't really give people the impression that I'm a villain who has achieved success. After all, I'm from the Sky Patrol...

If you want to pretend, you have to pretend in a dignified way. What's the point of stepping on the Li family to become famous?
Call the noble family!

……

"Qianzhou's strange mountains are truly unique."

“It’s not just a simple imitation, but it truly manifests the essence of what a person has learned.”

"Although this fighting spirit is a dead object, it is as sharp as a true swordsman."

Looking at Yang Jingchu who was silent in front of him, Miao Xingyu couldn't help but sigh.

The blade's light confronts the sword's energy, and the sharpness competes with each other.

Yang Jingchu's fighting spirit stood with a knife in his hand, his eyes like torches, and he suddenly shouted, and swung the long knife in his hand. In an instant, the knife light appeared, like a streak of silk cutting through the void, the black light was dazzling, and the sharp aura actually cut the surrounding air.

Miao Xingyu was not to be outdone. With his sleeves fluttering, he shook his sword, and sword energy burst out like a real red silk thread, carrying a cold sword intent, shuttling back and forth, crisscrossing in the air. Every sword energy seemed to be able to pierce through metal and stone, and it was extremely sharp. It collided with the surging sword light with a loud bang. For a moment, light splashed everywhere, and air waves rolled, as if a thunderous explosion.

The sword radiances and saber energy clashed with each other, but Miao Xingyu was not discouraged.

Of course he has a way to win quickly. If the swordsman's Dharma body appears, it will not be difficult to break the opponent's attack.

But if that happens, wouldn't that be using one's realm to suppress others?

Since it was a challenge on the Fighting Spirit Peak and not a life-and-death duel in the outside world, victory or defeat was actually not that important to him.

Even up to now, Miao Xingyu has not yet summoned his own Jade Tower vision, and is only fighting with his opponent using his own swordsmanship.

He saw Yang Jingchu's progress over the past ten levels, as if he could feel the years of training of a swordsman.

If you can gain some insights from this, it will be the greatest gain.

Perhaps, this is what the mountain god of Douhun Peak intended!
The intention of leaving behind the strong men of all generations is for the later generations to fight with them and hone themselves.

This can be considered as the mountain god's way of survival, mutual benefit and win-win situation with people enables it to survive forever. Therefore, Douhun Peak has stood for a long time, and its popularity has not diminished in the slightest.

After all, keeping this peak can hone the younger generations, and no force would want to destroy it.

The black blade light attacked again, but this time, Miao Xingyu shook his head.

The thirty-ninth floor, no need to stay any longer.

Perhaps the other party has made further progress compared to the previous level, but he has seen through it.

"Hmm... maybe it's the shortcomings of Yulou's swordsmanship? The moves are exquisite enough, but I always feel like something is missing."

"After all, the road of martial arts is endless. Let me see how far this senior has progressed in the next level."

Chi Xiao slashed with his sword, breaking the gap in the blade light, and instantly made the black light disappear without a trace. Miao Xingyu ended the battle completely with another sword.

Miao Xingyu still has great respect for this old senior.

But he always felt that the opponent's swordsmanship seemed to be lacking something.

It’s not that it’s not sophisticated enough, nor that it lacks power, but rather the “intention”.

Although swords and knives are different, they lead to the same destination and are ultimately the same road.

Miao Xingyu had also seen that mysterious "intention" in the sword, but he had not yet fully understood it, and always felt that it was still missing the finishing touch.

clang!
The ancient bell on the fortieth floor rang again, and this time the shock it brought was far greater than before!
The ancient bell, which had not rung for many years, rang twice in a row today!
Everyone at the foot of the mountain knew exactly what this meant.

But Miao Xingyu didn't care. He knew Jiang Yue's strength very well.

The explosion during the fight that day seemed to be still vivid in my mind. Jiang Yue’s improvement speed... was simply incredible!
For Miao Xingyu, it was just a common thing for the other party to reach the 40th floor, not even surprising.

After all, if Jiang Yue attacks with all his strength, no one can stop him except a marquis!
Even he was once forced to use his swordsman's body. One must know that being able to make a powerful marquis behave like this is far beyond the ability of an ordinary Jade Tower Realm cultivator.

Jiang Yue, you can't use common sense to reason with him!
On the 40th floor, Yang Jingchu appeared again, but this time his image had changed drastically.

The other person looked completely middle-aged, with some scars on his face, and the weapon in his hand was replaced with an inconspicuous, mottled, rusty knife.

Miao Xingyu recognized it at a glance, and it turned out that this knife was of unusual origin.

Combined with the other party’s age... Yang Jingchu seemed to have encountered some major changes during the time between these two levels!
Although he didn't know the details, he had heard of some of the other party's deeds.

According to rumors, Yang Jingchu did not have obvious talent when he was young, but after joining the Sky Patrol Division, he relied on killing all the way to improve his strength and it became quite stable.

The misfortune was that when he was about thirty years old, he was summoned to Kyoto, and he never recovered after his return.

No one knew what he had gone through exactly, but he seemed to no longer work so hard. Instead, he started to live a carefree life. Ten years passed in a flash.

Originally he was one of the few strong men in Yulou Realm and had a promising future. However, he made no progress in the past ten years and even regressed.

No one knows the specific reason, but Miao Xingyu has a rough guess based on his own experience.

Trip to Kyoto…

Could it be related to the Immortal Ruins?
Perhaps, the other party suffered a setback during the selection in the past, and lost confidence in the future when he came back, and has never recovered since then.

But a truly strong person will not fall because of this.

Ten years have passed in a flash. Perhaps it is precisely because of the destruction and reconstruction that Yang Jingchu seems to have found a new path.

Just as no one knew why he had been in a daze for such a long time, no one knew why he broke the record of Douhun Peak again.

This time, the weapon in his hand was not the mad sword of the past, but a weapon called——Mancaojie.
