When Hu Xing stepped onto the teleportation array, a white light flashed. Hu Xing was already standing on one of the teleportation arrays of the Mysterious Gate. The surrounding forest was lush, the ancient trees reached the sky, the cliffs were broken, and there was only a wide path leading to the top of the mountain. Looking into the distance, green peaks stacked up, as steep as the sky. The Celestial Sect of Wonders players hurried up the mountain. Some of them were like Tiger Star, secretly coming to take him as their master. After a few steps, a floating bridge appeared in front of Hu Xing. Hu Xing couldn't help but slow down. Looking down from the bridge made him dizzy. The clouds were misty, and he could only hear the sound of water flowing. Tiger Star looked to the left and saw a silver waterfall hanging between the two mountains like a ribbon. The water surged on the two mountains 'solid stones, splashing beautiful flowers. It was really the work of nature.
For a moment, Tiger Star was stunned. This was the most beautiful scenery Tiger Star had seen since he entered the game. He took a few small steps and came to the edge of the suspended wooden bridge. He held the rope beam that was as thick as his wrist, and fluctuations appeared in his empty eyes again. Unfortunately, at this moment, he suddenly felt a huge fluctuation on the suspended wooden bridge, waking him up. Before he turned his head, he heard a sweet voice.
"You're new here, right? I'm Can Ye, nice to meet you.”A bell rang.
Hu Xing turned around. The first thing he saw was not the woman, but a two-meter-tall honest white bear. The white bear stretched out its arms and neck, panting heavily. He slowly raised his gaze and saw the woman. Her eyebrows were as light as the mountains in spring, her eyes were as clear as autumn water, and she was as gentle as white clouds. Although her face was covered, her beauty would still make all the men tremble.
Although Hu Xing was cold, he would not be so cold as to ignore others. "Hello, my name is Hu Xing." Although Hu Xing said it calmly, no matter how others heard it, they were still a little silent.
When the woman heard the cold voice, she frowned slightly and said calmly,"Do you want me to show you around the Mystic Gate? That way, you will be able to integrate into the life of the Mystic Gate very quickly.”
"I don't think so. Thank you for your kindness. This place is full of mystery to me. I think it would be better for me to slowly remove it.”Hu Xing glanced at the woman and turned to look at the buildings in the shadows of the trees in the distance. His eyes were filled with yearning, as if he felt that he should belong to this place.
"Alright then. If there's anything you need, call me. There's nothing I can't handle in the Mystic Sect.”The woman was obviously angry. She looked at Hu Xing strangely and walked towards the teleportation array.
Hu Xing glanced at the woman's back and stepped on the suspended wooden bridge without looking back. Halfway there, the smoke floating in the air made Hu Xing feel relaxed. Walking to the opposite side, the ground also opened up. A stone step about 50 meters wide led to the top of the mountain. Climbing up, it was magnificent.
After about ten minutes, the buildings on the mountain peak became clearer. There were jade buildings, silver jade stairs, painted buildings, green tiles, and red wood. The entire mountain peak formed a picturesque ancient painting with these buildings. Vermilion and green, scattered like stars, and jade belts wrapped around it, shining brightly. Tiger Star himself was obsessed with ancient Chinese architecture. He yearned for it and revered it. This time, he really enjoyed it.
Hu Xing finally arrived at a platform. The building was already in front of him. It was a five-meter-tall bronze cauldron. Smoke billowed from it, and the blue smoke was dense. Hu Xing walked to a cliff platform and looked around. He saw a vast fog in the distance. The third ditch was deep and dark, and clouds curled around it. The firewood peak was steep, and the rocks were towering. It was truly majestic and indescribable. Other than shock, it was still shocking.
Tiger Star looked around. There were many players like him who were also mesmerized by the mountain scenery. Hu Xing turned his head and looked at the buildings around him. They spiraled up along the tall main peak. Hu Xing stepped on the stone steps towards the main peak. Slowly, the steps became abnormally steep. He bowed his body and followed the crowd up. Exquisite courtyards appeared in front of Tiger Star on the mountain. From time to time, there was the sound of practicing martial arts. Finally, they reached the peak of the main peak. The players were all lined up in a long line, as if they were waiting for something.
A grumbling voice came from behind."F * ck, do you want me to die? Why are there still so many people waiting in line? It's been almost five months since the game started, why are there still so many people coming to take me as their master?”
"Big brother, just bear with it. You don't know, when I heard that the game started, the queue went all the way to the teleportation array at the foot of the mountain. Hehe, we're much better now.”A lackey behind him hurriedly comforted him.
"Damn, what's with this family planning!”The boss muttered and cursed.
Hu Xing was amused after hearing this. He turned his head and looked at the beautiful scenery in all directions. The cranes were flying, the mist was rising, and the clouds were overlapping. There was no end to it. It was likely that he would not be able to see enough in his lifetime.
"Brother, you're here. Hurry up. My waist hurts from standing here.”Because Tiger Star was so engrossed in watching, he actually forgot to move forward. Someone behind him urged him unhappily. Tiger Star revealed an embarrassed expression and followed. Finally, they arrived. When Hu Xing arrived, he suddenly felt that this entire palace hall made his spirit feel oppressed.
Just as Hu Xing stepped through the door, a dozen or so torch-like gazes shot over. Hu Xing's body paused for a moment, and he swept his gaze around before walking in. He stopped three meters away from an old man in the middle.
"Hero's name?" The old man didn't speak, but a handsome young man beside him asked.
"Tiger Star." Hu Xing lowered his head and said indifferently.
The young man walked in front of Hu Xing and said,""Young hero, please raise your head." Hu Xing slowly raised his head, and his eyes met the young man's. When the young man saw Hu Xing's gaze, he frowned slightly. A hand reached out to Hu Xing's shoulder and continued to exert force. Hu Xing did not move at all. It would be a lie to say that it did not hurt, but he endured it and did not make a sound. The expression on his face did not change at all.
"Purple Star, stop. This person doesn't need to be tested anymore.”The old man sitting in the middle stroked his long beard and spoke faintly. The young man respectfully withdrew his hand, glanced at Tiger Star, and returned to the old man's side.
"Young man, perhaps it was not the right choice for you to come to our sect.”The old man glanced at Hu Xing and said.
"Why?" Tiger Star was shocked. He had never heard of a player who could not enter a sect. Hu Xing looked at the old man with white hair and a youthful face. Then, he swept his gaze over the young elders around him. Some of them nodded, while others shook their heads. Their expressions were different.
"Do you still need to ask me?" The old man looked at Hu Xing with lightning like eyes. Hu Xing stared at the old man's eyes and didn't say anything.
Hu Xing's eyes dimmed and he lowered his head again. His white hair hung down his chest and he didn't say anything. He turned around and walked out of the door. His heart trembled with every step he took because he saw the same thing in the old man's eyes as Master Ouyang. Just as Tiger Star was about to walk out of the door.
"Stop, Sect Master, let him sit with me.”A sage-like old man stood up from a remote corner and said. The elders around looked at the old man in surprise. Even the sect master looked at the old man in surprise. An old man beside the sect master said,"Martial Uncle, how can this be? Didn't you look at him?"
Before he could finish, an old man standing in a corner interrupted him,"All of you have only seen one side of this child. My decision has already been made. You don't need to say anything more.”Hu Xing heard his words and looked at the old man in shock. The sect master was actually his junior brother.
The Sect Leader looked at the old man and smiled." Since Senior Martial Brother has taken a fancy to him, it's this person's fortune. Since you've already spoken, what else can I say?"”
When the old man heard what the sect leader said, he came to the middle of the hall and looked at Hu Xing."From today onwards, you are Daoist Lan Miao's last disciple.”The old man fanned himself and bowed to the sect leader before walking out of the door. Hu Xing was stunned for a moment. He bowed to the sect leader and the elders around him and followed silently.
Hu Xing followed behind the old man and did not speak. He curiously sized up the old man. The old man's body was even and slender. He was dressed in white and held a white fan in his hand. Although he was old, he still had an endless elegant and romantic aura. The old man didn't say anything. He put his hands behind his back and walked forward. His feet didn't make a sound. His body was floating like an immortal. His loose clothes fluttered in the mountain wind, making him look like an immortal old Taoist.
The two of them gradually left the crowd and walked down the mountain. Halfway up the mountain, they turned left and a small wooden bridge appeared in front of Tiger Star. It was very narrow and could only allow one person to pass at a time. Walking on the loose bridge, Hu Xing looked at the cliff at the foot of the mountain, the deep valley, and the clouds above the valley. He couldn't help but feel dizzy. He hurriedly grabbed the lock beam beside the bridge. Heaven Duke did not act impolitely at this moment. A violent gust of wind suddenly blew in the valley. The already loose bridge swayed up and down in the sky above the valley like a swing.
Tiger Star looked at the old man in front of him. He was still standing steadily on the bridge like a maple leaf, moving up and down with the rhythm of the bridge, becoming one with the entire bridge. Tiger Star was dumbfounded and thought to himself,"What profound martial arts! Wasn't this even more powerful than the legendary climbing duckweed, crossing water, and stepping on snow without leaving a trace?”
"If you want to become my disciple, this is your first test. If even this small bridge can defeat you, how can you become my disciple?”The old man easily turned around from the swaying beam and looked at the pale Hu Xing.
Tiger Star gritted his teeth and endured his fear to stand up. However, he immediately staggered to the deck and tried a few times to no avail. Hu Xing raised his head and looked at the old man. The old man acted as if he didn't see him. He leisurely pulled his long beard and said,"Forget it if your eyes are empty, but are your heart and brain empty too?”
" No!" Tiger Star roared angrily. Perhaps this was not his anger towards the old man in front of him. An indescribable emotion made Tiger Star roar. The old man didn't seem to hear him. He looked at the mountains in the distance.
Hu Xing looked at the calm and steady old man and slowly calmed down. He raised his head to look at the old man and said word by word,"I will definitely go.”After saying that, he stood up again and walked shakily towards the old man. This time, he actually didn't fall down. Although he was swaying, when he was about to reach the old man, the old man deliberately shook his feet. The bridge swayed under the force. Tiger Star climbed onto the deck again. If it wasn't for his hands holding onto the bridge tightly, he might have fallen into the bottomless abyss.
"You're still not good enough. You're still far from it. My courtyard is on the other side of the mountain range. If you can cross this bridge, come find me and become my disciple. Of course, you can also choose to give up and find another master.”The old man said in a relaxed manner, as if he was speaking to nature. Although the wind was roaring, it was still like thunder in Hu Xing's ears. After the old man finished speaking, he slowly stepped on the swaying bridge and moved to the opposite side as steady as a rock, leaving only Hu Xing who was watching attentively. The old man's figure had already disappeared, and Hu Xing was still stunned on the spot.
Half an hour later, Tiger Star stood up and shouted at the other side of the valley,""I, Tiger Star, will never give up. I have never taken back my words.”At this moment, Hu Xing's empty eyes once again produced some impurities. It was determination, confidence, and self-improvement.
Following that, Tiger Star tried many times but returned without success. He liked tests and liked things that ordinary people couldn't do. Tiger Star gradually fell in love with this bridge. He fell in love with this lonely bridge that swayed in the wind. After a week, Tiger Star could clearly feel his improvement. He was already five meters away from the shore.
Just as Hu Xing was feeling smug, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and a mournful cry was heard. Hu Xing was swept off the bridge by the sudden gust of wind. He struggled weakly and fell off the cliff, turning into a white light and appearing on the teleportation formation of the Mysterious Gate. The wolf skin bracers on his body exploded. Hu Xing stood on the teleportation array and was stunned for a moment. He gritted his teeth and directly ran towards the narrow valley.
"Tiger Star, where are you going?" A familiar voice sounded again. Hu Xing's body stopped and turned around. He saw that it was remnant leaf. This time, she was not riding a white bear. Her dress was fluttering like a cloud, and her black hair was fluttering in the wind, making her look even more elegant. The men passing by did not even bother to look back.
Tiger Star woke up from her beauty and said,""So you have such a good figure!" When Can Ye heard Hu Xing's praise, her face flushed red. Unfortunately, Hu Xing couldn't see it. Her face was covered by a white veil. "Thank you for your praise. By the way, I saw you in a hurry just now. Where are you going?" Can Ye walked up and said.”
"Back Mountain, Mountain Cliff, I still have things to do, so I'll leave first.”After saying that, Hu Xing ran towards the back of the mountain like a gust of wind.
"Hey, you haven't said what you want.”Can Ye looked at Hu Xing who was charging forward and shouted on the spot. She didn't understand why he suddenly ran away! He shook his head and walked forward. However, something strange happened. Just as Broken Leaf crossed the bridge and reached the other side, a white-haired player rushed past her like a gust of wind.
"Hey, Tiger." Just as Can Ye was about to shout, Hu Xing had already disappeared. Yes, he had fallen off the cliff again just now. Tiger Star put all the equipment into the ring. He didn't have to worry about dropping them. Now, he was already a pitiful level 17. (The bottom line is level 10. Once you reach level 10, you won't drop any further.)）
Half a month had passed, and Tiger Star had long fallen to level 10. However, the results were already very obvious. They were almost at the center of the bridge.
When Hu Xing rushed past him for the third time, Can Ye quietly followed behind him. When he saw that he had run to the uninhabited back mountain, he hesitated for a moment and still chased after him. When he saw what Tiger Star was doing, he was scared silly by the scene in front of him. He held his mouth with both hands and almost screamed. When she saw the Tiger Star swaying from side to side on the bridge, her heart inexplicably trembled and her face turned pale. When she saw Tiger Star fall straight into the bottomless canyon, her eyes were wide open. She squatted in a pile of grass and kept shaking her head. She couldn't believe that this was real. She didn't know why Tiger Star was playing this " game " here.
Can Ye thought to himself, Is he a fool? Don't you know that this is very dangerous? What kind of mental pressure did he have to endure?”The broken leaf returned foolishly. He didn't speak for the entire day, and his mind was filled with the scene of Tiger Star falling off the cliff.
"Sister, what's wrong? Was he absent-minded all day? If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, tell your brother.”A man walked in and stroked his sister's black hair as he asked dotingly. Yes, he was the Savage Sword who sat alone in the first seat of the Celestial Sect of Wonders (I will explain in detail later).
Can Ye raised his head and asked," Brother, you said that there was someone who played with a wooden bridge in the canyon. He fell off the cliff every time. Why did he do that?"”
Savage Sword was stunned when he heard that. He smiled and touched Savage Leaf's forehead."Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? How can there be such a person? Isn't this the legendary fool? Sister, what's wrong with you?"
"Oh, I'm fine. Brother, why did you enter my room without my permission?”Can Ye suddenly woke up and pretended to be angry.
"Ah! Sister, are you really okay? Alright, alright, I'll go out now." The broken sword was covered in dirty water by his sister. He hurriedly walked out and smiled bitterly.
"Is he really a fool? What a pity.”Can Ye muttered to himself with an inexplicable sense of loss.
A month had passed. There was no longer any fear in Tiger Star's eyes. Instead, there was joy. He discovered that his balance and reaction had reached an unprecedented height. His eyesight, senses, and spiritual power were all slowly improving. He had already crossed three-quarters of the bridge.
Opposite him, an old man had been observing Tiger Star's performance from the beginning to the end. He pulled his white beard and revealed a satisfied smile before once again hiding in the lush green bushes.
Remnant Leaf would come over every few days a week to take a look. Perhaps it was because she had gotten used to it after a long time, but every time Tiger Star fell into the canyon, she would unconsciously cover her eyes. However, she grew to like Tiger Star's swaying posture on the suspended wooden bridge. She liked his rare stubbornness, his courage, and his cold expression. At this moment, Can Ye's face gradually turned red as he muttered to himself,""Can Ye, what are you thinking? Didn't you say that your future husband must be a hero who could stand up to the heavens? But he's not even close to being a hero! And he's so pitifully stupid."
Another half a month passed. Tiger Star once again fell off the cliff and arrived in front of the suspended wooden bridge. He looked at the nearly 100-meter wooden bridge confidently. "Today is the day I, Tiger Star, conquer you. I've waited so long for this day!"”What Hu Xing did not notice was that there was a woman standing quietly not far from him, sweating for Hu Xing.
" Ah!" Hu Xing roared towards the sky and took his first step. Following that, he went up in a loop step by step. Although he wasn't as stable as Lan Miao, the current Tiger Star made people feel at ease. Tiger Star gradually reached the canyon, and the valley wind gradually became stronger. He slowed down his pace, but at least two spectators were blessing him. One was his master, who wasn't his master, and the other was Canye, whom he wasn't familiar with. When Tiger Star passed through the valley where the wind was the loudest, he had already succeeded halfway.
When he took the last step and stepped into the land on the other side, Hu Xing once again raised his head and roared. It was a happy roar, a roar that belonged to a victor. On the other side of the valley, there was also a burst of excited screams. Yes, that was the broken leaf. Hu Xing looked over and shouted,"Can Ye, thank you for your silent support.”When Can Ye heard Hu Xing shout this, she couldn't help but shed tears and kept waving at Hu Xing.
Hu Xing once again looked at the bridge. He knelt on one knee and silently kissed the wooden bridge. He stood up and shouted at Can Ye,""You can go back now. Thank you, Can Ye.”After saying that, he walked towards the courtyard halfway up the mountain not far away without looking back. When Can Ye heard Hu Xing's words, she was stunned on the spot. An ominous premonition arose in her heart. Can Ye didn't understand why he didn't turn back but continued to move forward. Looking at Hu Xing's faintly disappearing figure, she shed tears and felt a sense of loss.
