Chapter 575: Climbing the Mountain!

Chapter 575: Climbing the Mountain!

Luckily, these few individuals were fortunate enough that the impact didn't affect them too severely. They crashed onto the ground, coughing up blood, but none of them were gravely injured.

"We can only climb up."

Situ Muyang felt a lingering fear in his heart. Fortunately, he wasn't the first to rush forward. He gazed ahead at the magnificent mountain peaks, with rugged rocks and no visible steps or paths. The only way to avoid being affected was to climb up, pressing his body against the rocky cliffs of the mountain.

"Be careful."

Su Yi glanced around and saw the towering mountain peaks, devoid of any pathways. Not a single blade of grass grew in sight. The mountains were dark brown, rugged, with rocks jutting out. The only way to ascend was by climbing along the rocks, like scaling a cliff.

"Quickly go up, we mustn't let anyone get there first!"

Situ Muyang spoke up, watching as Yun Lingfeng and several others fell to the ground. This was an opportunity. He summoned his inner strength in his feet and immediately began to climb.

Su Yi's body was enveloped in energy, and he soon began to climb towards the mountain peak.

The gazes of the people around flickered, as the powerful and mysterious corpse warrior in the sky battled with the strange sword-bodied creatures and skeletons. Soon after, they followed behind Situ Muyang and Su Yi.

Yun Lingfeng stood up, bearing his wounds. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and gazed at Su Yi's figure. A glint of coldness passed through his eyes, and he quietly followed closely behind.

The eighteen disciples of the Divine Sword School, at this moment, each climbed the rocks like monkeys. With the assistance of their energy, they were surprisingly fast.

But the mountain peak was too vast, and as they climbed, they couldn't see the top.

The mountain was dotted with numerous giant rocks that intertwined, creating a peculiar and awe-inspiring landscape.

However, this was not a place for sightseeing. The surroundings were filled with black mist, and an eerie aura spread, affecting the souls. One could even catch glimpses of bones with black spots scattered around.

"Swoosh…"

Eighteen people climbed quickly, afraid that someone else might reach the top before them.

The cultivation levels of the eighteen individuals were not too different, and at this moment, their speeds were also very similar.

However, Mu Yao, Su Yi, Liu Yunchuan, and several others clearly had a faster pace.

"Splash!"

Suddenly, a sharp aura burst forth unexpectedly, and a strange attack swiftly appeared at the back of Su Yi's head. It was as fast as lightning, swift and fierce.

Su Yi exerted all his strength as he climbed, but this was not a friendly place. He had been cautious throughout, and when this attack occurred, he immediately sensed it.

But this eerie attack unleashed a menacing aura, closing in on the back of Su Yi's head.

A bone-chilling cold spread throughout, causing Su Yi's hair to stand on end. In a swift motion, his energy surged from his feet and hands, and his figure moved sideways like a hanging monkey.

"Bang!"

That sharp attack landed directly within the rocks, piercing into the rocky wall with a resounding "bang".

"Boom!"

The mountains trembled, causing rocks to split apart and roll down.

Su Yi dangled from a branch, his gaze fixed ahead. Suddenly, he caught sight of a mysterious skeletal figure.

Just as Su Yi looked to the side, he saw that the skeleton was right there. It seemed to awaken suddenly, holding a sword emitting black light. The skeleton swung the sword directly at Su Yi.

"Chirp."

The eye sockets of the skeleton were filled with black light. Its first attack missed, but then it swung its sword with a terrifying aura and struck towards Su Yi once again.

Su Yi's face turned pale with fright. He swung his arms and leaped gracefully, like a nimble monkey, soaring through the air. His body spun 180 degrees, and he landed directly on a large rock nearby, coincidentally right above the skeleton's head.

"Splash!"

Upon seeing this, the skeleton raised its eyes, its dark gaze unsettling. It let out a strange "oo oo" shriek from its mouth, preparing to strike again.

But in that moment, Su Yi was even faster. His fist burst forward, carrying a mighty force, as his energy surged wildly. It created a gust of wind, shattered rocks all around, and kicked up clouds of dust.

Su Yi's punch was not aimed at the skeleton, but at the massive rock beneath its feet.

"Boom!"

With this punch, the massive rock shattered instantly, bursting into fragments.

The skeleton, in a panic, desperately tried to grab onto something, but ultimately plummeted along with the crumbling debris.

Yun Lingfeng happened to be nearby, casting a casual glance at Su Yi. Seeing that Su Yi had narrowly escaped a disaster, he appeared somewhat disappointed. Seizing the opportunity, Yun Lingfeng instantly surpassed Su Yi.

Su Yi squinted his eyes, gazing towards the top of the mountain peak. Then, he resumed climbing, but now he had to be even more cautious.

"Bang!"

Not far off to the side, Mu Yao also encountered danger. A skeleton suddenly appeared and launched an attack from behind her.

"Boom!"

Mu Yao was enveloped in a golden light, her aura becoming mighty and fierce as she engaged in a fierce battle.

After a few moves, it seemed that the skeleton lacked intelligence and relied only on its instinct to kill. Without being aware, it plummeted down.

The mountain was large, and as they climbed higher, surprisingly, there seemed to be less danger.

The group climbed higher and higher, getting closer and closer to the mountain top.

Below the group, a fierce battle was unfolding between the mysterious powerful mummy and those eerie sword-wielding skeletons.

"Zoom..."

Mysterious sword lights suddenly swept down from the peak of the mountain, descending from above.

"Boom, boom..."

From the top of the mountain, there were even countless boulders rolling down. These massive boulders, weighing over a thousand kilograms, could easily crush a person into pulp if they were swept away by them.

"Be careful!"

Everyone leaped and dodged frantically, not only avoiding those mysterious sword lights, but also dodging the massive boulders rolling down from above. They were in a state of chaos, trying to escape unscathed.

Fortunately, these sword lights and boulders weren't too dense, allowing everyone to find opportunities and gradually reach the peak of the mountain.

At the peak of the mountain, the terrain instead became less steep, gradually leveling out.

"Whoosh..."

One by one, figures leaped up to the mountaintop and appeared above it.

Every person was cautious and activated their inner energy, guarding against sudden dangers.

At the top of the mountain, a veil of black mist lingered, casting a dim glow all around, with an overwhelming and chilling presence.

Up ahead, many stone platforms of a certain pattern could be seen. They were about one yard in size. Some of the stone platforms had scattered bones on them.

These white bones, just like the skeletons the group had encountered before, had a certain pattern of black spots on them.

The stone platforms were densely arranged all the way to the highest peak of the mountain.

On many of the stone platforms, treasure swords were inserted upside down.

The stone platforms were arranged, and the swords shimmered, intertwining with each other, as if connected invisibly by a mysterious and profound rule.

Above the swords, a faint glow connected them, and the rippling sword aura intertwined, finally spreading towards a stone platform on the highest peak.

At that moment, at the top of the highest peak, there was an ancient stone platform, roughly half the size of a person, with a square shape. Mysterious and unfamiliar runes were engraved all around it, shimmering with radiance.

The numerous swords, crisscrossing on the stone platform, eventually all became connected to this stone platform.

"This is the Raven Sword!"

Suddenly, Liu Yunchuan shouted in excitement. Right ahead on the stone platform, he saw a magnificent sword with its hilt embedded into the stone. The sword's body shimmered with mysterious patterns, emanating an ancient aura. It glowed a vivid red, resembling flowing lava.

"The Raven Sword, it really is the Raven Sword!"

Gu Chenyou, Ou Luo, Ouyang Ran, and others exclaimed in astonishment, their eyes showing a mixture of surprise and shock.

"That is a treasure, the famous sword among the Divine Sword School. It has long surpassed the level of spirit weapons and was once possessed by the powerful predecessors of the Divine Sword School."
