When I turned around to look...

Tang San was sneering at them; clearly, the power came from him.

"asshole!"

As the two men in gray cursed angrily, they were also filled with horror.

How old is Tang San? Not only is he capable of keeping up with the boss, but he can even take the time to attack the two of them.

No wonder, no wonder... there were such rumors circulating down the mountain!

soon.

The group of four had already left the village from the back.

Directly ahead is a mountain peak. The mountain itself is not high, but it is extremely steep. The entire mountain wall is almost perpendicular to the ground and is extremely smooth. There is no vegetation. It is a steep rocky mountain.

The gray-clad leader showed no sign of slowing down. Seeing that they had reached the foot of the mountain, he took a step, leaped up, and rushed straight up the mountainside.

Tang San was slightly startled.

The mountain in front of him is at least 500 meters high. Was he planning to climb it directly on the smooth rock face?

Tang San knew he couldn't do it just by jumping. After all, he needed leverage to unleash the wonders of Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps.

However, Tang San's doubts were soon resolved.

Clearly, the gray-clad leader couldn't climb directly. When his body rose to about twenty meters, he touched the mountainside with his toes and then began to rise again.

Tang San stared intently and saw that there was a depression about every ten meters on the smooth, mirror-like mountain wall, which was just enough to help him climb up.

Saw this scene.

A smile couldn't help but appear on Tang San's face.

It seems the Clear Sky Sect's isolation is truly thorough. This steep mountain wall alone is beyond the capabilities of any Soul Master below level 40. Even with sufficient strength, one needs considerable courage. Moreover, if someone were to launch an attack from the summit, even a level 60 or 70 expert might not be able to reach the top. This is undoubtedly an insurmountable barrier.

No wonder the Spirit Hall failed to advance back then.

While they were thinking, the other two men in gray also took to the air. Unlike their leader, they were not arrogant. They only used their strength once every twenty meters, a standard ten-meter leap, and quickly chased after him.

Tang San wasn't in a hurry to reveal himself, but instead turned to look at Xie Xue and Mo Wuchang.

"What? Are you worried we can't keep up?"

Xie Xue smiled sinisterly, looked up at the cliff, and his body shot straight up as if rising from the ground.

Mo Wuchang, stepping on his martial spirit, followed suit.

"You bastard! You've gone too far!"

Seeing this, Tang San no longer hesitated. He flicked his Blue Silver Grass and grabbed the two people who were going up behind him. Using the force, he flew into the air and quickly caught up with the gray-clothed leader.

Using a lever every thirty meters, one can easily climb upwards.

Tang San naturally reached the mountaintop faster than the gray-clad leader.

The gray-clad man didn't look at Tang San, but instead gazed at Xie Xue, who was already waiting at the top. His eyes held a hint of solemnity. He had never felt this kind of pressure from a Title Douluo in his clan before, which meant... this Title Douluo was very strong!

There was a hint of approval in their eyes as they looked at Tang San. Only after all three of them had reached the top of the mountain did they set off again.

Throughout the entire process, he did not say a single word to Tang San.

Upon reaching the summit, the view suddenly opened up, and the other side of the rocky mountain was no longer so monotonous. Looking ahead, several mountains were covered with lush green vegetation.

The six of them, three in front and three behind, headed into the mountains.

Through observation, Tang San discovered that this mountain range was quite peculiar, with most of the peaks being very steep, and the spaces between the mountains being formed by mountain streams.

If you want to go into the mountains, climbing up and down will undoubtedly be extremely exhausting.

If defenses were to be deployed on every mountain peak, then one would have to traverse one formidable barrier after another.

Even if the attackers outnumbered the defenders tenfold, they might not be able to break through. The terrain was simply too treacherous.

It wasn't long before we moved forward.

They had reached the end of the mountain they were standing on.

At a height of 500 meters, the area was already shrouded in mist. To Tang San's surprise, the gray-clad man at the front suddenly leaped up and jumped directly into the deep ravine ahead, disappearing into the mist in an instant.

The two gray-clad men walking in front of Tang San turned around and looked at him warily before jumping down.

"Hmm... iron chains, huh?"

The Evil Blood Douluo couldn't help but chuckle.

Tang San stared intently, then suddenly realized!

Chapter 777

It turns out that at the end of this mountain peak, there is an iron chain as thick as an arm, stretching into the distance.

Without a doubt, it connects to another mountain peak.

The misty clouds concealed it perfectly, making it difficult to spot without careful observation.

Although the iron chains would sway in the air, anyone with sufficient strength to stabilize themselves could easily cross them. Even a level 30 Soul Master could do this with ease. Tang San immediately understood the purpose of this arrangement. If enemies attacked, they could retreat to the second mountain via the iron chains if they couldn't hold them off at the first pass, then cut the chains. This would not only provide a buffer time but also allow them to continue using the second mountain as a barrier to defend against incoming enemies.

Such a design is undeniably ingenious.

"Let's go, I can feel it..."

Xie Xue smiled; he was also quite eager to see the rats of the Haotian Sect.

He flew over with Mo Wuchang in his arms.

Tang San wasn't even afraid of being shattered to pieces, let alone this tiny iron cable in front of him.

It soared into the air, its feet barely touching the ground.

Tang San had already landed on the iron chain.

The iron chain extended diagonally upwards, and the mountain peak at its end was clearly higher than before. Using his soul power, Tang San slid forward as if he were glued to the iron chain.

The distance between the two mountain peaks is quite far, nearly a kilometer.

As we moved forward and gradually entered the middle section of the iron chain, the swaying of the iron chain under our feet became increasingly violent due to the influence of the mountain peaks.

They almost always sway from side to side.

The gray-clad man at the front paused, turned to look at Tang San, and seeing that he had caught up smoothly, continued on his way.

Clearly, he wasn't as cold-hearted as he seemed. At least he still cared about Tang San's situation, since rumors circulated that this kid could use two martial souls at the same time!

Seeing this, Tang San couldn't help but show a hint of joy. After all, they were from the same clan, even though he was an outsider. They were still related by blood, and his talent was so exceptional that no force would refuse him!

His hostility towards himself probably stemmed from his belief that his father had done something wrong.

Tang San's expression turned slightly cold.

The road ahead was like a constant repetition, except that the ravines between the mountains became deeper and deeper.

As they continued along the iron chain to the fourth peak, the condition of the chain began to change. Due to the cold and dampness, a layer of icicles had formed on the chain connecting the fourth and fifth peaks, making it extremely slippery and significantly increasing the difficulty of their advance.

However, Tang San still went there.

This fifth mountain peak is the last one before entering the Haotian Sect.

The reclusive Haotian Sect resides atop this mountain.

Although there are no pavilions or towers, it is still a castle-like building when you look at it. The building is gray all over and looks like part of the mountain, almost occupying the entire mountaintop.

"I never imagined the Clear Sky Sect would be located in such a godforsaken place. Even with a map, we can't find it. Eating, drinking, and relieving ourselves are all problems..."

Mo Wuchang looked at the surrounding buildings. All along the way, there were chains, making it difficult to go up and down the mountain.

The gray-clad man at the head of the group, Tang Long, said:

"This is a special training method of our sect. All disciples who have reached the age of sixteen must participate in the transportation of supplies."

"But it seems the rumors outside are true, Tang San, you are indeed very powerful."

Tang San nodded slightly.

They knew their talent, so things became much easier to handle.

The massive stone building resembles a fortress, with its main gate reaching five meters in height. While it cannot compare to the Papal Palace, this all-stone structure appears exceptionally sturdy. Above the main gate, three large, powerfully carved characters exude a majestic grandeur that rivals the surrounding mountains.

Haotian Sect!

At the main gate, two young men dressed in gray saw the four approaching and quickly bowed. However, one of them blocked Tang San's path.

"Please show us your sect's token."

"Token?"

Tang San was stunned for a moment. Of course, he didn't know what this so-called token was, and he looked at Tang Long with some doubt.

Tang Long explained, "It's the Clear Sky Hammer! What could be more convincing proof of our sect's direct lineage than the Clear Sky Hammer? They asked you to show it because they didn't recognize you; it's the rule. Just show it to them. Only direct lineage members of the sect are allowed here. The sect's affiliated and outer disciples are in that village outside."

At this point, his mood became slightly downcast.

The look in her eyes as she gazed at Tang San now held a hint of hidden hatred.

The village outside has at most a few hundred people. With so few affiliated members of the Haotian Sect, it's clear that the Haotian Sect is in a difficult situation.
