The mountainside is half empty.

The moment before, Ling Zhouyue had defeated Li Wuxie with all his strength, and his figure was as valiant as a sword. His talk and laughter were wiped out, and he straightened Zong Zhishan's majestic appearance.

The next moment, she was sitting cross-legged on the elder's flying stone, with her red lips pursed and her eyebrows furrowed, looking like a very unhappy baby.

Master Yin Yue asked:

"What’s wrong with you?"

Ling Zhouyue frowned and looked at the foot of the mountain below, saying unhappily:

"Who put the magic ban on this year's cliff level? Didn't we use monkeys, pythons, rolling stones and the like as levels before?"

Master Yin Yue said:

"This is because the two of them might work together to find tricks when climbing together, so the difficulty of the three levels was increased. I remember that when Bo Yunzi proposed this proposal at the elders' meeting, you also nodded in agreement, right?"

"Ah this..."

Ling Zhouyue was stunned and couldn't remember the incident at all.

Master Yin Yue put a stopper on the wine bottle in her hand and forced it back into her arms.

"Drink less."

Ling Zhouyue refrained from drinking and continued to watch the two carrying the sword.

Since the three levels become more difficult, I can only hope that the two of them can cooperate more and not exhaust their energy in the first level.

As a result, when Cheng Jian started, she frowned again, feeling that she had a headache.

Good guy!

Even if you two don't cooperate, you have started competing!

She held her forehead in tears and cursed the two of them angrily:

"You two are masters and apprentices, not brothers and sisters. What a competition!"

On the side, Master Yinyue sighed slowly:

"Sometimes competition is also a kind of cooperation."

…

Cliff layer.

Thick clouds hung overhead, and clear mist drifted around. There was silence all around, except for the occasional rustling and falling gravel.

Chu Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and while swinging his sword like rain, he used the sewing needle sword technique to break the details of the ban.

At the moment when the restriction is released, he takes a quick step perpendicular to the cliff, and then continues to swing the sword to release the restriction in front of him.

And the restrictions that had been lifted behind him quickly returned to their original state.

Xiao Ran originally wanted to follow behind and climb the mountain, but when he was about to pass the level, he used his mortal-level resonance footwork and stepped on her shoulders to achieve the overtake.

Even if it fails, it's not too bad to give Xiao Nizi a body rub and some spiritual stones as compensation afterwards.

Perhaps this plan was too shameless, but he suddenly discovered that the restrictions on the cliff could be restored immediately after being released.

The recovery time is set just right, only enough for one person to untie it and then take one step forward to recover quickly.

Of course, he can also forcefully follow.

Just keep a negative distance from Chu Yan.

But as a teacher, you must first avoid being a disciple!

There are differences between men and women, and there is an order of elders and younger ones. Even when the master taught him the skills, he had to laboriously perform high-level fog techniques and cover his body with holy light. In the end, he was really exhausted, so he collapsed naked in his arms, letting

He has grown...

Now that he himself is a teacher, he naturally wants to carry forward his master's noble character and keep a distance from his disciples.

It doesn’t matter how far the distance must be, at least it can’t be negative, otherwise it will really be in line with Chu Yan’s original words——

Let the children live in an environment where they are not accompanied by their father and are bullied.

Thinking like this, Xiao Ran still stretched out his hand to climb the mountain.

He could have used the mortal-level resonance movement technique to go up without consuming spiritual energy, but it did not consume spiritual energy, but consumed a lot of physical energy. Last night was proof of this.

He was exhausted, but he couldn't collapse at the first level.

Climbing mountains is still possible.

By resonating with his spiritual consciousness, he can accurately find the best labor-saving route.

Occasionally, when the road is blocked, I shake my fingertips and draw a few notches that can be used for subtle strength. I press my toes against the notches and slowly climb up.

In this way, Xiao Ran was like a gecko, clinging to the cliff and walking out of a winding and crooked path.

Chu Yan was walking upwards in a vertical straight line, one step at a time.

Turning his head to look at Xiao Ran, he found that he was crawling crookedly, like a ghost walking in strange ways, and his posture was very strange.

Originally, she wanted to laugh at him, but in the blink of an eye, Xiao Ran crawled away and quickly disappeared into the vast mist.

Not only could she not see Xiao Ran, but her consciousness was also restricted by the surrounding peerless spirits, making her unable to perceive Xiao Ran's specific location.

The surroundings were filled with mist and confusion, and nothing could be seen except the cliffs.

It was completely silent, as if you could hear your own heartbeat.

She suddenly felt a little scared.

Only then did I realize that I was somehow dependent on this guy.

When Xiao Ran was around, she felt much more at ease than now. As soon as Xiao Ran left, she became panicked and felt empty in her heart.

Could it be that this is the master's sense of reliability, just like the master's sense of reliability towards him?

If you think about it carefully, this guy's performance as a teacher for the first time was not too bad. At least the sewing needle sword technique he taught him was extremely exquisite, and it was also very suitable for her character and physique.

However, the competition is a competition, and she cannot let him go just because the master is a good person. Defeating the master head-on is her greatest filial piety.

When she passes the test and wins over the Master, wouldn't it be nice to have the Master rub her shoulders and back and enjoy the treatment of the Master?

Thinking like this, she suddenly felt energetic. She was no longer afraid or nervous, and instead focused more on swinging her sword to break the ban.

An hour later.

Chu Yan was sweating like rain, exhausted, and her spiritual energy was consumed tremendously. She almost couldn't bear it anymore, so she relied on the superior service she imagined in her heart, thinking that no matter how hard or tired she was, Xiao Ran would help her get rid of her fatigue.

finally!

A faulty platform appeared ahead.

She tried her best and climbed up with gritted teeth.

What I found was that there was a gravel road around the mountain, about a foot wide, mixed with grass, wild flowers and thorns.

I looked around, but there was no sign of Master.

She tried her best to curl up the corners of her mouth and smiled softly.

"Hehe...I won...the disciple beat the master..."

Suddenly, a gust of wind came from the west, carrying a scent of meat.

BBQ?

Chu Yan frowned, holding the slender silver sword vigilantly, dragging her tired and sweaty little body, walking westward following the smell of meat.

After walking about a hundred feet, Xiao Ran was discovered!

I saw him sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, building a huge bonfire frame with eight small tree trunks, and skewering a roasted python with his sword.

He was actually roasting a snake!

There were two branches planted on the edge of the fire cliff, and they were baking clothes.

He was wearing a new set of clothes.

Ten feet away, a pond was dug. There was new soil on the side. The pond was still steaming, it was warm water!

Newly dug hot spring!

In other words, not only did this guy beat me by climbing the wall diagonally, he also killed a golden ringed python that was blocking the way in the old level in the cave of the cliff. After climbing up the stairs, he dug for the intersection of the fire and water veins.

I went to the hot spring, took a bath, cut down the tree, roasted the python, and dried my clothes?

Chu Yan's eyes were blank, her body reached its limit, her waist softened, and she sat down like a duck, sobbing in frustration.

"I lost again... Wuwu."

Why say again?

I've been waiting for you for a long time.

Xiao Ran raised his eyes and took a look.

The girl was soaked all over, and her thin green clothes became extremely transparent, revealing the exquisite snow-white underwear; the white silk on her lower body clung to her thin legs, showing the graceful curves of her legs; she had an extremely innocent loli face.

Red and tender...

Ah, I can't see this.

At this moment, Chu Yan had regained some strength after sitting for a while. She gritted her teeth in humiliation, lowered her head, blushed, clenched her fists, and did not dare to look at Xiao Ran.

"You don't have to look at me with such sympathy, I keep my word!"

Xiao Ran smiled.

"Don't be discouraged. This time the elders have increased the difficulty of the first level. You can climb up alone, which is already very good. Go take a bath in the pool, change your clothes, and then come over and eat some snake meat to restore your spiritual power;

With snake meat, you don’t need to replenish the energy lost to my master. You only need to give me a pat on my back, rub my shoulders, and help me relieve my fatigue."

As if hearing some new knowledge, Chuyan's tearful eyes rolled and she suddenly raised her head.
Chapter completed!
