Chapter 38 The Road to Heaven


    According to legend, there is a staircase leading to the sky at the Baiyun Peak not far away. As long as you can walk on that road, you can reach the mysterious Sky City...


    Does it sound very artistic?


    And in fact……


    "To be honest, I really doubt it now. This thing was made up to cheat money."


    Looking at the bustling town at the foot of the mountain, Duanmuhuai complained speechlessly.


    No wonder he said that, just look at those brands and you will know.


    "Sky City Ladder Looking for a Tour Group", "Mysterious Sky City Relics Exhibition", "One Hundred and Eight Stories You Don''t Know About Sky City"...


    If Duanmu Huai hadn''t triggered the mission of "City of Sky" when inquiring about this news from the tavern, Duanmu Huai would have thought it was just a story to cheat money.


    It’s like going to the Flame Mountain and then encountering things like “Shui Curtain Cave Classic Tour Route”.


    The problem is that the Water Curtain Cave is not in the Flame Mountain either.


    “…Forget it, it’s good to go and have a look.”


    Based on the idea that being idle is also idle, Duanmu Huai took Aojisi to the "Sky City Relics Exhibition" museum in the town, wanting to see what is in this Sky City.


    However………


    "This is a paired sword that suddenly fell from the sky one day! Its momentum remains unabated, and even pierces the head of an unlucky guy!"


    This is just throwing objects from high altitude! Don''t go to find the murderer?


    "It is said that this is a cup used by the residents of Sky City. Sky City will regularly spread these favors to the world, and collecting them is our duty!"


    This is just an ordinary cup, and is it true that throwing garbage from the sky? If it is true, then the quality of residents in this Sky City is not very good.


    After looking around patiently, Duanmuhuai said that this is a garbage expo.


    They still have some conscience if they didn’t get a piece of **** fossil.


    "Forget it, let''s go up the mountain."


    Although Duanmuhuai did not see any Sky City in the satellite scan, since the system triggered the mission, it means that there must be a Sky City here.


    Of course, there is also a one-day tour of "Sky City Steps" in the town, but it is a horse riding, and Duanmu Huai''s figure is obviously unable to ride, so he took Ojisi directly along the mountain road and walked up the mountain step by step - he didn''t even go to find a guide, after all, those guys who are full of trains and only know how to make up stories and talk nonsense, probably wouldn''t be able to provide him with any useful clues.


    Fortunately, there is only one way up the mountain, Duanmuhuai is not afraid of taking the wrong path.


    Of course, he was not the only one who went up the mountain. Duanmuhuai also saw many guys wearing armor, carrying long swords, and dressed like knights along the way. Some of them ride horses, some hike, and obviously they all come here to find the legendary "Sky City".


    "So, you all come here to find Sky City? Does this have anything to do with your trial?"


    While walking, Duanmuhuai started chatting with a horse-riding knight next to her - she was idle, just like chatting while traveling to Mount Tai Huangshan.


    "Of course, foreigners."


    This knight is also a talkative person. Although Duanmu Huai looks quite terrifying with a helmet, there are so many people here, so he is not afraid that the other party will suddenly take action, so he started chatting.


    "It is rumored that the City of Sky is a sacred city that only knights with upright character can enter. As long as we can enter the city and receive blessings, we can show our strength and glory!"


    "So, has anyone ever succeeded?"


    Duanmu Huai asked curiously, "This kind of rumor has some basis, and it is impossible for him to just open his mouth." "It is rumored that the patron saint of Batonia, the Green Knight, once headed to the Sky City under the guidance of the goddess in the lake. His armor and weapons all came from that city!"


    "Oh, so that''s it..."


    Hearing this, Duanmu Huai finally understood why all these knights were very excited. After a long time, they all wanted to be the second-place Green Knight.


    But what''s wrong with being a green knight? It''s green from beginning to end. I don''t know how many times I''ve been greened to make it like this... I''ll be beaten to death if I change Duanmu Huai.


    Not long after, everyone came to the top of the mountain, and everyone was scattered and searched for clues everywhere - obviously, they were not stupid either, after all, the sky here was cloudless and there was not even a ghost in the sky. But people in the magic world have strong acceptance ability. It is obvious that the Sky City is likely to be in another world, so what they are looking for now is a way to go to that world.


    I have to say that these people are not stupid either.


    But unfortunately, it is unlikely that they will just find it.


    Duanmu Huai did not get together with these people. He looked around and then a light flashed in his eyes.


    Start up, soul resonance!


    The next moment, the world in front of Duanmu Huai immediately changed, and the surroundings became illusory and confused. Then soon, Duanmu Huai raised his head and looked at the top of the mountain - on the sharp top where almost only one person could stand, a slender staircase went straight into the sky to lead to the pure BC city located on the top of the mountains and floating in the sky.


    Found it!


    Seeing this scene, Duanmuhuai''s mouth raised slightly, and then he let Aojisi sit on his shoulder. Then Duanmuhuai came to the front, reached out to grab the stone, and began to climb the rock in front of him.


    Duanmu Huai''s actions naturally attracted the attention of others, but they did not think much about it. After all, there is only a platform the size of a person on the top of the mountain. Everyone has already investigated it, but there is nothing on it. I thought this burly black guy just wanted to go up and see the scenery, and some people even worried that he would trample on the top of the mountain platform - that place could not withstand the tossing of this black guy!


    However, just as everyone started looking for clues again, suddenly a voice sounded.


    "Hey? Where is that black knight?!"


    Hearing this scream, everyone was stunned and hurriedly raised their heads and looked up. They saw that the platform on the top of the mountain not far away was empty, without a single person. The burly and huge black knight had disappeared like this!


    Where did he go? Could it be that it fell from the mountain!


    Of course Duanmu Huai did not fall down. In fact, he was walking among the clouds now.


    "Huh...... This place is really unfriendly to high-altitude phobia patients."


    Walking on the stairs and looking around, Duanmu Huai also sighed in her heart. This is a staircase that is almost three people wide. The whole part looks like glass transparent. Walking on it makes Duanmuhuai unable to help but think of many things like high-altitude glass corridors in scenic spots. What''s even more terrifying is that there is not even a handrail next to this staircase. If you don''t step on it correctly, your body will slide... and then it will fall down directly.


    This place is really not something that ordinary people can come to.


    Fortunately, those knights were not found, otherwise they might have fallen to death.


    Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai raised his head again and looked at the sky city in front of him.


    This is not so much a city as a mountain floating in the sky. The first half of the mountain was hollowed out and a huge fortress with semicircular walls and platforms were built. In the innermost part, there is a white pure white high-rise building built against the mountain. The entire Sky City is full of a peculiar atmosphere and charm from mysterious civilization.


    It’s not the architectural style of the ancient sage, where did this thing come from?


    While carefully looking at the sky city in front of him, Duanmu Huai was also confused. In fact, a long time ago, many Soul Walker players discovered that there were many scenes in the soul fragments, and they could not find corresponding records and records in reality. It was as if the world they found in the fragments of their souls had never existed in this world at all.


    Therefore, some players have also proposed an assumption that this planet may have been destroyed more than once. Before the Ancient Saint and his friends arrived on this planet, perhaps the planet had another powerful civilization environment, and later it died for some reason. Then the Ancient Saint came here and created species such as elves dwarves and humans...


    I have to say that this assumption is still very marketable.


    As for what exactly... you will know it by going and checking it out!


    At the same time, Duanmuhuai also stepped on the last step and came to the gate of Sky City.
