Chapter 1005: Steep Mountains

The mountain in front of us is towering into the clouds, with one side as steep as a knife and an axe, and the other side is gentle. Although there are some low mountains around, they are still much lower than the high mountain in front of us.

The side with gentle mountains is a large open area. According to Wang Quan's description, there is a large group of people stationed there, which is also the end of the valley entrance. Not to mention that there is a large group of people stationed there, even if there are only a few people, they can completely block the invaders.

If there are people stationed at the mouth of this kind of canyon, they will definitely arrange strong bows and crossbows. This kind of weapon is also the best choice for guarding the key road. Generally, even if the number of people and cultivation are several times higher than those of the stationed people, it is difficult to pass through.

Zuo Feng, who is alone, will certainly not choose the valley entrance. Even if he approaches there, he must be extremely careful. Although it is getting dark now, it is still too dangerous for Zuo Feng before the sun sets.

Retracting his gaze from the valley entrance, Zuo Feng turned his head to look at the mountain in front of him. Although the peak on this side was not as steep as the other side, the slope was still very amazing.

There were only some low plants on the mountain wall, and there were no too tall trees and vegetation. It was also very difficult to climb such a mountain.

Zuo Feng took a deep breath and began to climb. The climbing route chosen by Zuo Feng was a little far from the gentle side of the mountain, so the climbing would be more difficult.

However, as Zuo Feng climbed up with his hands and feet, he gradually showed a hint of joy. Because the route he chose was rocky, some places could only accommodate a few fingers, and some places could only accommodate a quarter of the sole of the foot, which was definitely a test for the climber.

During this process, Zuo Feng could not use spiritual power. Not only Zuo Feng could not use it, but anyone else who came to climb the mountain could not use spiritual power without restraint.

Warriors who have experienced physical training all understand that the infusion of spiritual power can make the body exert its ultimate strength and destructive power, which will be fully exerted in the battle of warriors. But once the battle is over, people will become weak when the spiritual power is consumed.

In the process of climbing the mountain, warriors have to face the continuous use of physical strength, especially the high mountain in front of them. During the climbing process, it is rare to find a place to rest temporarily.

Facing such a mountain, even if the warrior wants to climb, he will definitely choose to use pure physical strength, so that when the physical strength is exhausted and he cannot rest temporarily, the burst of spiritual power can make him overcome the difficulties.

However, such a high mountain is a challenge for warriors in the middle stage of muscle hardening to climb even with the combination of physical strength and spiritual power. But for Zuo Feng, it is a completely different feeling.

At the beginning of climbing, Zuo Feng's physical strength showed his own advantages. Sometimes when only two or three fingers were needed to pull the whole body, Zuo Feng could easily send himself to the next position.

After this situation lasted for a while, Zuo Feng felt that his whole body seemed to be burning, and a slight feeling of swelling and pain filled his body. As he continued to climb, this situation not only did not ease, but continued to intensify.

Zuo Feng was also very surprised by his own changes. According to his judgment, his physical strength should never have such a poor reaction in such a short time.

Zuo Feng, who was about to find a place to rest, suddenly felt that a trace of inexplicable power was slowly growing in his sore body. Faced with this change, Zuo Feng was still a little stunned at first, but soon Zuo Feng gradually understood.

Because in the continuous consumption of physical strength, he felt that the source of those powers was actually in his own blood.

As the potential in the blood was released in a process of squeezing, Zuo Feng felt that his body seemed to be greedily sucking the released energy.

There is no need to guess that the energy in these blood is the energy that was absorbed from Wang Quan's body and the blood knife before. Zuo Feng didn't know where these energies came from, but they were extremely beneficial to his body, and seemed to fit in very well.

"Could it be the blood of a demon beast or a monster? Otherwise, why would it fit in so well with my body? Fortunately, this energy will not affect the mind, otherwise it will be integrated into the blood and the flesh, and it would be impossible to remove it."

Zuo Feng, feeling his body constantly changing, kept muttering excitedly in his heart.

Some things are deadly poisons to others, but they are life-saving straws to others. This is a living example in front of him. Wang Quan was troubled by blood. Although he burst out with powerful fighting power, his mind was almost lost and controlled by Hu San.

After the same blood was absorbed by Zuo Feng, Zuo Feng's body was fully improved. This improvement was of great benefit to Zuo Feng. He even felt that his body would move forward to a higher level after this tempering.

Because of the absorption and integration of the energy in the blood, the originally boring mountain climbing became a pleasant experience at this time. Without using any spiritual power at all, Zuo Feng's figure was already "snapping" upwards like a clever monkey.

At this moment, Zuo Feng had an idea in his mind, that is, if this mountain was higher, he could climb a little further. This mountain, which originally required a certain risk to climb, was now a great opportunity for Zuo Feng.

If it is said that when he first absorbed blood, he only simply integrated it with his own blood and partially transformed the heart. Then this time of climbing the mountain also allowed Zuo Feng's body to be completely integrated with the blood, and the transformation of the heart was also perfect.

When standing at the foot of the mountain, Zuo Feng felt that this high mountain was already a challenge, and he had to do his best to climb up before it was completely dark.

When Zuo Feng stood on the top of the mountain, he found that the sun in the distance was still halfway down.

Zuo Feng was not in a hurry to check the whole picture of the valley, but sat cross-legged to relax his body and mind. Judging from his experience in cultivation, it is best to relax the whole body at this time, and let the spiritual power freely flow in the meridians and body, so that the body can be nourished by the spiritual power for the last time.

In this way, this time the fusion of body and blood can be regarded as completely perfect.

When the sun was only a little afterglow in the west, Zuo Feng opened his eyes again. There was thunder and blood flashing in his eyes, which disappeared in an instant.

Zuo Feng moved his body slightly, and his whole body was filled with explosive power. He had the urge to vent it immediately.

He punched the void in front of him, and the frightening low sonic boom sounded in the air. This punch was purely physical, which made Zuo Feng very satisfied.

He grinned slightly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and his eyes immediately chopped at the edge of the cliff seven or eight feet away from him. He could see that there was another high mountain a few dozen feet away, but it was a little lower than where he was. The two mountains embraced each other to form a valley.

Standing up, Zuo Feng walked towards the mountainside. At this time, the sky was gradually darkening. When Zuo Feng walked to the mountainside, he could see the dense forest below the valley and a place where fire was flickering.

Zuo Feng carefully observed for a moment and determined the location of several fires and smoke on one side. It should be the warriors stationed at the entrance of the valley. In addition, there were several fires and smoke rising from the valley. They should be a group of people in the valley. These people were divided into two steps in the valley, which was exactly the same as what Wang Quan said.

Zuo Feng stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the terrain of the valley carefully. The valley entrance was slightly narrow, and the space inside the valley was a little larger. Although this valley is called a gourd, it is actually narrower than a normal gourd.

"Well, if we follow Wang Quan's arrangement, we can indeed use his methods inside this valley. Wang Quan looks rough on the surface, but he is actually a meticulous person."

He muttered softly, and then focused his eyes on the inside of the valley. At this time, the light outside the valley was still very good, but because the valley was surrounded by two mountains, the light was much dimmer. Fortunately, Zuo Feng's eyesight was very strong, and he could see some of the situation in the valley under his feet.

In the gaps between the trees, some animals could be vaguely seen wandering in the valley, and there were quite a few of them.

According to Wang Quan, there was a large group of wild beasts living in this valley, and these wild beasts were called wildebeests. Although they look like horses that are usually used for riding and transporting goods, they are much larger and have very violent tempers. In particular, these wildebeests also eat raw meat, which means they will attack other animals and humans when they are hungry.

Zuo Feng frowned and looked at the mountains on this side of the canyon, and couldn't help but sigh slightly. Although the mountains in this canyon are not vertical, they are much steeper than the side he climbed up, and most of the mountain walls are very smooth rocks, so it is almost impossible to climb.

Originally, Zuo Feng was still lucky after hearing Wang Quan's description of the mountain walls here. Now it seems that what Wang Quan said is not exaggerated, and it is indeed impossible to climb normally.

As a result, Zuo Feng also felt a little embarrassed. Obviously, the reason why the enemy took a fancy to this place is because the surrounding mountain walls have become a natural barrier, and there is no need to worry about the enemy suddenly coming down from the mountain walls on both sides to launch an attack.

In this way, Zuo Feng's original idea was completely dispelled. He originally planned to sneak in to rescue people and then use Wang Quan's methods. But now it seems that he really has to do it according to what Wang Quan said, but this will make the difficulty of saving people several times greater.

At this moment, he also understood why Wang Quan suggested that he should not have too high expectations for saving people. It seems that Wang Quan did not have any reservations about him at the beginning, and those suggestions were indeed for his own good.
