C22 Mysterious black gas

Zhou Tong tried his best to stand up straight and wipe the sweat off his face. This was the fifth time he had stopped to rest.

After walking out of the 'B' gate, nearly two hours had passed. The 'B' gate's courtyard had gradually shrunk to the size of a palm, but the A Gate's courtyard still hadn't appeared.

After walking out of B Gate, the higher he went, the heavier Zhou Tong's body got. Every time he walked out, he would have to stop to rest.

Since the time he started to cultivate his body, it had been a long time since Zhou Tong felt such pressure.

The strength in his four limbs and bones was continuously being drained and reborn. This process of consumption, replenishment, and consumption was incomparably satisfying. It was as if every cell was struggling against this immense pressure as they let out roars of defeat.

At this point, Zhou Tong already had no choice but to pull out the Meteorite Sword s and hold it in his hand as a walking stick. The originally five hundred kilogram Meteorite Sword was shockingly heavy under this kind of gravity, and with Zhou Tong's strength, even when he moved his arm, it was a little shaky.

After resting for a while, Zhou Tong set off again. With every step he took, beads of sweat would roll down the stairs.

Suddenly, a sonic boom sounded out, and Zhou Tong immediately realized something was wrong. The sound came from right in front of them. It was a flying sword. His flight path was straight, without any fancy movements, as he charged straight towards Zhou Tong.

"He really has such a trick up his sleeve."

Zhou Tong helplessly shook his head and laughed bitterly. There was bound to be an ambush along the way, something that Zhou Tong had long thought of. It was just that, at this point, it was no longer a simple matter to retaliate.

Zhou Tong's two hands held onto the Meteorite Sword's sword hilt, his feet moved in a stable horse stance, taking aim at the flying sword's trajectory, his two legs released energy, bringing along his waist, shoulders and arms, in the end, his hands fiercely swung out the sword, flinging the Meteorite Sword up.

Under gravity that was more than ten times stronger, the Meteorite Sword itself weighed more than five thousand kilograms.

This was the thing that Zhou Tong relied on to block the flying sword. With such a heavy object on his back, defeating Zhou Tong wouldn't be an easy task.

The flying sword and the Meteorite Sword suddenly collided. The huge force pushed Zhou Tong back a few steps, causing him to stumble on the ground, but the flying sword actually circled around and attacked him again.

Zhou Tong let out a long sigh, laughed helplessly, and decided to give up.

Clearly, the flying sword wasn't going to let him go.

Just as the flying sword was approaching, Zhou Tong suddenly felt as if a bomb had exploded in his brain, and a strange force suddenly rose from his body. He felt a hum in his head, and his ears were filled with a sharp buzzing sound.

The strength of the aura was much stronger than when Zhou Tong released fifteen of them at the same time. Under the guidance of the aura, even the Meteorite Sword started to feel lighter and nimble.

Without waiting for Zhou Tong's surprise, the flying sword had already arrived in front of him.

Taking advantage of the sudden appearance of this force, he gritted his teeth and swung his sword, directly sending the flying sword flying far away.

At the same time, that mystical Qi quickly transferred to Zhou Tong's legs, causing him to feel that his steps had become lighter, and he had already taken more than ten steps.

Zhou Tong was completely shocked. He had trained in the martial arts over the years, and Zhou Tong had extremely precise control over his strength, the might that the mystical Qi had displayed, was not less than twice that of the pressure on Zhou Tong.

And what shocked Zhou Tong the most was not just this.

However, that surge of energy also grew at the same time, and it still maintained at twice the pressure. Under Zhou Tong's feet, he still could not feel the slightest bit of the impact of the gravitational force, and if not for the aching sensation in his legs, Zhou Tong would not even be able to determine whether the gravity had increased or not.

Without waiting for Zhou Tong to think, the flying sword turned back.

Zhou Tong clenched his teeth and swung his Meteorite Sword towards the flying sword. With the power released from Zhou Tong's arm, the force was transferred into Zhou Tong's hand. With one hit, the flying sword was sent flying into the forest.

After hitting the flying sword, the force shifted to Zhou Tong's feet once again. Zhou Tong quickly returned the Meteorite Sword back to the Sumeru Pearl and borrowed the force from the force to rush towards the top of the mountain.

Very quickly, the courtyard of the A Gate appeared before Zhou Tong's eyes. From the moment the Qi appeared, in the time it took to make a cup of tea, Zhou Tong had already traveled far away from where he was two hours ago.

He was less than fifty steps away from A Gate, and the gravity had already reached its peak. The gravitational force that was 15 times stronger than the outside world squeezed Zhou Tong so hard that he almost vomited.

The mysterious force still maintained its effect, but his legs had already reached their limit. Zhou Tong could clearly feel that the muscles in his legs had almost reached the edge of tearing apart.

A low growl started to emerge from Zhou Tong's throat, the sound grew louder and louder, and once again, he stepped onto the 30th step.

"Persevere! Persevere!" "Ahhh!"

The immense pressure finally made Zhou Tong's legs unable to endure any longer. A wave of intense pain came forth, and Zhou Tong knew that his muscles had already been torn apart, and beads of sweat the size of beans were continuously rolling down his forehead.

Under the guidance of the mysterious Qi, Zhou Tong staggered forward, and slowly walked up the stairs.

The muscles on his left leg had been completely ripped apart. Other than feeling excruciating pain, he had no other instincts.

With every step he took, Zhou Tong would let out a heart-tearing and lung-splitting roar, like an angry beast that was continuously attacking the cage that imprisoned him.

With only ten steps remaining, eight, five, three, and the last step remaining, Zhou Tong grabbed his unconscious left leg and with a violent stomp of his right foot, he shot out like a fish, pouncing towards the platform in front of A Gate's entrance. Clang!

In that moment, the terrifying pressure disappeared along with the mysterious force in his body. Zhou Tong did not even have the spare energy to turn over as he lay on the ground with black eyes and fainted.

The last scene before he lost consciousness was of a man and woman walking over. Zhou Tong could vaguely see an ice sword pattern embroidered on both of their clothes.

"Senior Brother, did you remove the gravity restriction on the last three steps? Is this considered a form of protection?"

"Then you didn't control your flying sword to attack him during the last part of the journey. Is that considered protecting him?"

The two of them looked at each other and laughed, then at Zhou Tong who was on the ground, they looked pleased.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Zhou Tong finally woke up from the aching pain in his entire body.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a room that looked like a dormitory. When he looked out of the window, the sun had already set in the west.

With much difficulty, he took out two Ink Willow Dans from the Sumeru Pearl s and swallowed them. Only then did the aching pain in his entire body slowly subside, and the torn muscles in his left leg still ached slightly. Even after consuming the pills, it would take some time to recover. However, at a time like this, using a pill like the Ink Willow Pill was the best.

"Have you heard? Today, among the new disciples, one of them will directly rush into A Gate. "

"How could I not know? The entire sect was going crazy. This is the first time in the past hundred years that someone has directly rushed up to the A Gate to select a candidate. "

Hearing the sounds of discussion coming from outside the door, Zhou Tong heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had succeeded. This should be the A Gate.

In the process of rushing up the stairs, Zhou Tong had exhausted almost all of the energy in his body, and even at this point, his whole body still felt weak. Zhou Tong crossed his legs and sat down, preparing to check the condition of his body with his inner sight.

But from the start, Zhou Tong was completely stunned.

"What the f * ck, what the f * ck is this!" Zhou Tong looked at the thousands of strands of pitch-black air in his body, and could not help but curse in his heart.

Within Zhou Tong's body, a large amount of pitch-black air currents appeared, and flowed through his meridians like millions of black silk threads.

Seeing the deep color, Zhou Tong immediately thought of the seal that had entered his body, thinking of the mysterious Qi that had suddenly erupted while he was rushing up the stairs, Zhou Tong immediately determined that the pitch black Qi had originated from the seal.

"You're awake?"

Just as Zhou Tong was pondering, a young man walked in. Her long, golden hair was carefully combed, accentuating her well-defined face. His eyes were the color of fine wine, amber, and he looked very warm. On his body was a set of green training clothes with the word 'A' embroidered on the chest.

The young man saw that Zhou Tong had woken up, and immediately went to the side of the table to pour him a cup of water.

"You've been asleep all day. Have a drink of water first. My name is Xue Yang, from today onwards, we will be roommates. "

"Thank you."

Zhou Tong took the cup and gulped it down, then immediately jumped down from the bed and looked at Xue Yang sternly, "Hit me with your fist."

"Huh?" Xue Yang was startled, he did not know how to react, "Do you think you're dreaming?"

"No, don't worry about it. Just punch me." Zhou Tong waved his hand and patted his chest as he urged him.
