Chapter 678 - 677: The Blind Kid Has a Big Role
Yusuf Zuck, although capable of flight, couldn’t release his telekinesis nor could he fly high. Additionally, after ascending the mountain, he encountered several thrusts of force. This force was invisible, and although he clearly tried to fly upward, the force would push him away, impeding his progress.
About five or six minutes into his journey up the mountain, he finally encountered the first danger: a barrage of qi arrows formed by air currents. It seemed he had triggered some kind of mechanism, and he was hit by the qi arrows. Although the arrows didn’t penetrate his body, they shocked him to the point of spitting out mouthfuls of blood.
After that, dangers became increasingly frequent: strange huge stones fell from the sky, bizarre spikes emerged from the ground, and there were even wind blades and flames, among other threats.
Less than half an hour later, Yusuf Zuck made a disheveled retreat, covered in wounds. He truly couldn’t ascend any higher. Not only was the place mysterious, but it was also clearly riddled with mechanisms. The mountain contained formations; within those formations were countless killing intents. And he was utterly clueless about formations. He felt as though he had traveled a distance, but in the end, he found himself going around in circles, not having made much progress at all!
Chicken Mountain was shrouded in heavy fog, obscuring visibility so much that nothing in the mountain could be seen, not even the summit.
He left the mountain with no choice.
And just as he was leaving, he suddenly heard two whooshes: the sound of people approaching.
Immediately, he turned and looked back, gripping the hilt of his sword.
"Eh?" The two audible gusts settled about ten meters away from him. With the help of the vague fog, he could somewhat make out their appearances. As he let out a soft ’eh’, the other party also voiced their confusion.
"Who are you?" the woman asked.
