"Are you going to give up?"
On the cliff, Wu Song looked at the others, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
From this height, he felt that even if it were himself, he wouldn’t survive the fall.
The rest, upon hearing this, all paused, their faces full of hesitation.
To be honest, they didn’t know whether they should keep going. Looking up, they could see the summit was still far away, and they weren’t sure if their stamina could last.
This was different from being below. Down there, they could rest when exhausted, even if the fatigue remained, at least they could catch their breath.
But now, up here, they couldn’t even catch a breath.
If they fell, it was very likely they’d truly die here.
Thinking this, their expressions grew more troubled, and their hearts more hesitant, unsure whether to continue.
"No, I better give up. The Xianxia Dungeon is indeed precious and important, but comparatively, I cherish my own life more."
"If the fall ans certain death, it’s not worth the risk. At least I have extraordinary power, having survived many dungeons. There’s no reason to gamble my life here."
Nearby, a young man looked down at the mangled body below, ground his teeth, and climbed downward.
He felt there was no need to take such a risk. Even if he didn’t complete the Xianxia Dungeon, he could still obtain useful items from other dungeons later.
Especially since his lifespan wasn’t very long to begin with, he valued his life even more.
This was different from before. At first, when he entered dungeons, he fought bravely, feeling he had nothing. It was okay to take risks.
But now, his strength had grown, along with his wealth, thus he no longer dared to take risks.
Thinking this, he climbed down, intending to abandon this task.
The Xianxia Dungeon—there was another difficult phase beyond reaching the top.
That was the cultivation.
He thought, given the current situation, if these people continued, they might reach the summit unless there were accidents.
Overall, it might take them around four to five days.
Yet the entire task had been stated to require ten years, leading him to feel that the cultivation bit was the hardest part.
Even after reaching the top, they might still not complete the task.
And during this process, he’d have to worry about falling and endangering his life.
In such a situation, he felt it was better to give up.
The others watched the scene of his unwavering departure downward in awe, then their eyes focused.
It seed the young man truly didn’t plan to continue.
The sight of Lin Xiao falling and dying was quite frightening.
With his departure, others hesitated and slowly began to leave.
Seeing this, Zhou Yingting and a few others were taken aback.
They had climbed all the way up and didn’t expect people to start quitting at this crucial mont.
The more people started leaving, the more shaken the remaining ones beca.
Yet Song Qingyun, upon witnessing this scene, glanced upwards again, Zhou Yingting had already reached ten ters ahead.
It appeared Zhou Yingting was the most likely to reach the top and complete the first stage of the task.
Seeing this, Song Qingyun said nothing but continued climbing upwards.
Zhou Yingting, after glancing down, also said nothing, continuing his ascent.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t afraid of dying, but because he had a sword equipped with enchanted capabilities on him.
He had confird the enchantnt wasn’t disabled.
Since the enchantnt was still active, he could use the sword.
Should he accidentally fall, the sword’s flying enchantnt could bring him to safety at the summit.
As for why he didn’t use it from the start, Zhou Yingting was worried about being deed as cheating, requiring him to retake the task.
To avoid that scenario, Zhou Yingting decided to first see if he could climb using his own ability.
If he could make it, he wouldn’t need to use the enchantnt.
Song Qingyun believed since Zhou Yingting had climbed so high, he had no reason to just give up.
He had prepared a lot for this Xianxia Dungeon too.
In this situation, so decided to give up, while others persevered upwards.
So didn’t want to give up because they spent considerable resources to obtain keys for this Xianxia Dungeon.
If they gave up now, all those costs would be wasted.
Taking this into account, they were naturally reluctant to easily abandon it.
After climbing for another ten minutes, Zhou Yingting finally spotted a tree root dangling overhead.
