Chapter 295: Chapter 227 Heaven and Earth_3 Chapter 295: Chapter 227 Heaven and Earth_3 This was also a tactic he had learned during the battles over these days.
The many disciples of Spirit Profound Peak watched as Chen Mu ascended step by step into the sky, all with looks of admiration on their faces.
“Chen Brother can actually soar through the void…”
“It must be the Strength of Qian Heaven and the Power of Gen Mountain, using the montum of the wind and sand.”
Linghu Shang spoke up beside them, his eyes also filled with a hint of reverence, “Chen Brother has not only mastered the Qian Heaven Artistic Conception but has also advanced to the second step of the Gen Mountain Artistic Conception.”
Shen Lin watched as Chen Mu’s figure vanished, and it seed as though she rembered sothing, “The list of promising newcors is issued once a year, and with Chen Brother mastering the Qian Heaven Artistic Conception, he’ll probably make it into the top ten next ti it’s published.”
Linghu Shang nodded and said, “Brother Zhou was ninth last ti, so Chen Brother should be about the sa now.”
“Mhm.”
Shen Lin then turned her head back towards the direction where Chen Mu had disappeared.
…
Step, step, step,
Chen Mu thodically ascended through the wind and sand, and before long, he had reached a place higher than Yunlu Wall.
Here, the dust was becoming sparse, gradually unable to support his weight in the air, so he stopped ascending, first glancing below, then peering through the dust-filled air toward the depths of the distant desert.
By utilizing the dust, he could reach higher than Yunlu Wall in a short ti, getting closer to the sky.
...
From this vantage point, he could not only overlook Yunlu Wall but also feel the changes in the heavens more intimately.
A little while later,
As the dust dispersed, Chen Mu could no longer stay suspended, and step by step, he descended from the sky back to Yunlu Pass and headed towards the main pass.
“I wonder when I’ll truly be able to fly.”
Chen Mu looked sowhat regretfully at the sky.
For a martial artist to fly was not an easy task.
Given their powerful physiques, they were also naturally heavier.
Chen Mu found it easy to walk on water, but to walk on air was beyond him.
As far as he knew, only a Martial Arts Grandmaster who had a deep understanding of the Xun Wind Artistic Conception could potentially fly, although at a speed far slower than on land.
Apart from displaying the grandeur of a grandmaster, it had little practical use.
The twenty-seventh northern pass wasn’t far from the main pass.
About thirty miles or so.
Shortly after,
Chen Mu was nearing the main pass.
Yet his expression gradually grew grave as he walked along the city wall and looked into the distance at the desert, noticing that the sky in the distance had darkened sowhat, coupled with a sense of oppression.
A rolling dust storm could be seen, which appeared to be engulfing the surrounding winds and gradually forming into one mass.
By the ti Chen Mu arrived at the main pass, he saw Xiahou Yan, Chu Jingsui, ng Danyun, and others had almost all gathered there.
“Chen Junior Brother.”
Xiahou Yan looked at the returning Chen Mu, his gaze heavy as he said to Chen Mu, “There is an anomaly in the heavenly signs, within half a day a great disaster will surely strike, we must join forces to confront it.”
In the midst of the sand disaster, the assaulting sandstorms at Yunlu Pass also varied in strength, among which the weaker ones, without many demons mixed in, generally posed no threat and could be ignored, as Yunlu Pass itself could withstand them.
But among the strongest class of storms, many soldiers in the Skin Toughening and Body Refinent Realm couldn’t even stand on the city walls, and even Martial Artists in the Tendon Changing Realm had difficulty stabilizing themselves, and often these storms contained a large number of demons.
“If we can get through this round, this sand disaster should be mostly over,”
Chu Jingsui stood to the side and said, “After that, the Earth Pulse’s Power in the desert will weaken, and we can join forces to explore the outskirts of the desert.
Perhaps we can harvest a good number of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Items.”
Xiahou Yan shook his head and said, “Let’s not talk about that; let’s first prepare for this round of the sand disaster.
Ordinary soldiers must take refuge inside the city walls, and only those above the Bone Tempering Realm are responsible for standing guard.
I have already called all the troops here…
My fellow apprentices also need to be careful.
In this sandstorm, you may encounter attacks from two or three Sixth Rank demons.
If the situation turns unfavorable, then temporarily retreat behind the Yunlu Wall.”
Xiahou Yan said to everyone.
The primary function of the Yunlu Wall was not to fend off demons but to block the onslaught of sandstorms, creating a relatively stable environnt in the rear.
Once in danger during a sandstorm, one can temporarily retreat behind the Yunlu Wall.
No matter how fierce the storm is at the front, the area beneath the Yunlu Wall is a much more peaceful zone, and the demons, even if they cross the Yunlu Wall, will beco much easier to deal with after losing the strength of the winds and sand.
“As long as no Seventh Rank Demon King appears, Sixth Rank Great Demons pose little threat to us,”
Chu Jingsui said calmly.
Among those present, only ng Danyun was slightly weaker in strength, but he too was a being who had stepped into the Six Viscera Realm.
Even if faced with two or three Sixth Rank Great Demons, if he couldn’t defeat them, he at least had the ability to retreat.
As for the Seventh Rank Demon King…
that was too rare.
“If you encounter a Seventh Rank Demon King, then temporarily retreat.
They are highly intelligent and will not easily cross Yunlu Pass,”
Xiahou Yan said.
By this ti, a significant commotion had already beco visibly stirring within the city, nurous soldiers, under command, were hiding in various buildings and passageways to temporarily take shelter.
anwhile, those arriving at the Yunlu Wall were Colonels above the Bone Tempering Realm, as well as Inner Sect Disciples from the Seven Profound Sect, many Stewards also being redeployed here.
And as the number of people gathered at the central fortress gradually increased with reinforcents from all directions, the dark clouds of dust rolling in the distance finally ford waves of sand resembling a tsunami and headed towards the central fortress.
The sandstorm had not yet struck, but many dark shadows were already faintly visible, all demons.
Among them, so with extrely large sizes were hidden behind the sandstorm, their details unclear.
Their tumultuous demonic aura mixed with the natural force of the sandstorm, and well before reaching the central fortress, they presented an oppressive feeling as suffocating as can be.
But at this mont, the Yunlu Pass beneath their feet, towering a hundred zhang high, seed like an unyielding mountain range, offering a strong sense of support that enabled those facing the mighty natural force of the oncoming sandstorm to stand in opposition.
Chen Mu, standing at the very front, stared intently at the oncoming sandstorm, his spirit montarily imrsed between the heaven and earth.
Sandstorm.
Yunlu Pass.
As the sandstorm surged like a sea overturning mountains, it almost felt like the collision between Qian Heaven and Kun Earth, and there he stood, at the center of Qian Heaven and Kun Earth, feeling on one side the mighty force of the heavens and on the other the profound montum of the earth.
“This, is Qiankun,”
he murmured quietly in his heart.
