420: C420 Astral Wind Body Refinement

C420 Astral Wind Body Refinement

Lin Cheng couldn't help but feel a slight chill in his heart. Judging from what Expert Feng said, just the cold wind alone could kill a person. If there were any other dangers, wouldn't that mean death?

No wonder Expert Feng had a Divine Ability Stage Cultivation Level, but he still hadn't reached the top of the mountain.

This was the first time this group of people had experienced the terror of this snow mountain!

The others were even more shocked, especially those rogue cultivators who weren't strong enough. At this moment, they couldn't help but show a hesitant expression, and their hearts began to beat rapidly.

The rogue cultivator who fell down just now was also an Incarnation Stage Cultivation Level. He had just entered the Incarnation Stage, and his Cultivation Level was slightly lower than theirs.

However, there were also many people who had Cultivation Level that weren't much higher than the previous man. If this snow mountain was really as dangerous as Expert Feng had said, how far could they go?

Some of them hesitated.

"Senior Brother Zhang, I'm afraid we are going to let you down."

Two rogue cultivators looked at each other. At the same time, they cupped their fists at Male Cultivator from the Unification Sect and said awkwardly, "We are not strong enough. We can't continue climbing. We have to pay Senior Brother Zhang back for his forgiveness."

Senior Brother Zhang frowned slightly, but he quickly nodded and said, "That's good too. You two can wait here. If we encounter any danger, you can come and help us."

The two of them immediately said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Brother Zhang, for your understanding."

They knew that after leaving the secret realm, they wouldn't be valued even if they joined the Unification Sect. However, compared to their own lives, this was no longer important. As rogue cultivators, the most important thing for them to survive until now was to know their own limitations. Otherwise, they would have died a long time ago.

"Let's go!"

Senior Brother Zhang didn't look at the two of them anymore. He turned around and said something to the others before continuing to climb.

However, the two of them seemed to have opened their heads. In the next two hours, there were people who kept asking to stop. They withdrew from the team, and even two of them were swept away by a sudden gust of cold wind. Miserable screams echoed in the valley and then disappeared.

"Hu!"

The snow mountain was majestic. When the group reached the hillside, almost ten people had already left or lost their footing and fell to the foot of the mountain.

At this time, everyone's expression became serious. It was already like this when they had just arrived halfway up the mountain. The cold wind was bone-piercing. Everyone had no choice but to circulate their Spirit Power to try their best to resist the cold. This way, they would be able to resist the bone-piercing cold.

At the same time, they had to be careful of their feet. The higher they went, the deeper the snow became. If they were not careful, they might fall into the snow. There had been one person before this. He stepped into the deep snow and jumped up in a hurry. In the end, he was suddenly swept away by the whistling cold wind and disappeared without a trace.

Because when they were halfway up the mountain, the cold wind was not the only thing that blew on their bodies. It also contained a gust of strong wind.

With this lesson, everyone no longer dared to easily fly. This way, the path to climb the mountain would be even more difficult. Every step they took consumed a lot of Spirit Power. Many of them had persisted until now, and their faces had already turned pale. Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. This was a sign that they had used up too much of their Spirit Power.

These few people were all Incarnation Stage Cultivation Levels, and the strongest amongst them was at least at the fifth level of the Incarnation Stage. This made everyone shiver in fear. One should know that most of these people were rogue cultivators from the Unification Sect who had come here in a hurry. It wasn't easy to break through to the Incarnation Stage, but for those who could break through to the fifth level of the Incarnation Stage and above... Less than half of them were here.

However, this fifth level Incarnation Stage warrior seemed a little weak, which made everyone's heart sink.

Perhaps this man's Cultivation Level was a bit weak, and his foundation was unstable, which was why he was able to display such a performance. But even so, his strength wouldn't be too weak.

This also meant that if he continued walking, the true fifth level Incarnation Stage warrior would feel threatened.

And here, he had just crossed half a mountain, and was still quite a distance away from the top of the mountain.

More importantly, when they looked up from where they were, they could see that the white fog was starting to appear. It could be imagined that the next step would be even more difficult.

Even the man named Zhang from the Unification Sect, Male Cultivator, was frowning. Obviously, he had never thought that this place would be so dangerous.

"Senior Feng, what should we do next?"

He asked the Expert of Divine Ability Stage.

Expert Feng said, "I only promised to lead you all up the snow mountain. As for how to go, or how to find treasures, that's your problem."2

Senior Brother Zhang felt stifled. Only now did he realize that the person standing in front of him was just a rogue cultivator. Even the elders of the sect had to give him some courtesy. He wasn't someone he could order around.

"Since many of the Fellow Taoists are about to reach their limit, why don't we split them up?"

Senior Brother Zhang pondered for a moment and said, "Everyone, if you feel that you can't continue climbing, then... He could stay here and search in this area. You can keep climbing with us."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

In fact, many of them were about to lose their patience at this moment, but they didn't want to miss this opportunity to join the Unification Sect. This was a great opportunity for them. If they were to shrink back now... At that time, they would definitely be looked down upon by others, even if they were to join the Unification Sect. They would never be valued.

Now that Senior Brother Zhang had made his promise, there wouldn't be any problems. Besides, this place was halfway up the mountain, and the spiritual energy here was shockingly rich. As long as there were items or spiritual herbs or Spirit Plant in this area, they would be of the highest quality. Being able to pick a few of them could be considered a pretty good harvest.

"Senior Feng, I'll have to trouble you to continue leading us up." After saying that, Senior Brother Zhang turned to Expert Feng and said.

Everyone started to move. Lin Cheng noticed that at least half of the people stayed. In the end, there were only 20 or so people who continued climbing. Including Zou Qingqi, there were no more than 30 people.

Lin Cheng raised his head and looked at the misty mountain peak. He didn't know how many people could last until the end. He even felt that he might not be able to last until the end.

Because at this point, he could already feel a trace of astral wind. This forced him to circulate his Spirit Power to defend himself. And above him, it was naturally even more dangerous.

Especially since Expert Feng was a Divine Ability Stage Cultivation Level, and he hadn't even reached the top of the mountain. It was imaginable how dangerous this place was. Lin Cheng wouldn't be so arrogant as to think that he was stronger than a Divine Ability Stage expert.

"Regardless of whether or not there are any high grade spirit herbs or Spirit Plant on this mountain, even if there's nothing here, it's still worth it to make this trip." Lin Cheng thought to himself.

The spiritual energy on this snow mountain was incomparably dense. The higher one went, the more it would be like this. Furthermore, when climbing up, one had to circulate the Spirit Power to resist the astral winds. Although this action would consume a huge amount of the Spirit Power, it could also absorb the rich spiritual energy in the outside world. In fact, it was equivalent to cultivating in the Spirit-cohering Array.

Although Lin Cheng didn't want to advance his cultivation realm, and only wanted to increase the strength of his body, this kind of cultivation was undoubtedly beneficial.

Thinking of this, Lin Cheng suddenly had a thought. "If I don't circulate the Spirit Power and only use my physical body to resist the astral winds and coldness in the outside world, wouldn't this be a great tempering for my physical body?"

As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, Lin Cheng immediately became interested. He deliberately slowed down his pace and followed behind everyone, trying to slow down the circulation of the Spirit Power.

Instantly, the biting cold wind from the outside world swept over. Lin Cheng's heart trembled. He immediately circulated the Golden Jade Body and began to strengthen his body.

Without the protection of the Spirit Power, he could only use his physical body to resist the strong wind and cold wind. This instantly made Lin Cheng feel a lot more tired.

The Golden Jade Body was only the Body-refining Arts. It was used to temper one's body, but it was unable to withstand the strong wind. In this way, Lin Cheng's body would have to face the cold wind directly.

With every step he took, Lin Cheng felt as if a piece of his flesh was going to be torn off from his body. The strong wind contained a very powerful destructive force. A gust of wind blew past. It was like countless sharp blades were cutting across his body, it was incomparably painful.

"I can persevere!"

Lin Cheng discovered that his body was still able to persist. Although it was very painful, it would not cause his life to be in danger, nor would he suffer any serious internal injuries. He immediately realized that his method was feasible.

But soon, he realized that this method might not be able to continue. Because as he continued to climb, the astral winds became more and more piercingly cold. The coldness became even more bone-piercing. In less than an hour, Lin Cheng felt that his body had become somewhat numb. Even as the wind blew, his body started to shake.

Should he circulate the Spirit Power?

Lin Cheng hesitated.
