Chapter 489 - 285: The Biggest Surprise is When There’s No Surprise_2
Li Ang secured the safety rope and then began to climb the other side with his ice axe in hand.
In other places, seeking thrills with unprotected rock climbing might be fine, but here on a snow mountain over four thousand meters high, even with a safety rope, it would be quite unpleasant if one lost their grip—not to mention, climbing barehanded isn’t a challenge to the impossible, but a sign of a problematic mind.
Even with Li Ang’s physique, a fall might not kill him, but it would certainly be a huge waste of time, and there was simply no need to take such a risk.
From behind Li Ang, he looked like a monkey as he moved across the slick ice surface and up the cliff face that was pitched at eighty degrees as if it were flat ground.
After a certain step, Li Ang finally felt a weak interference field.
His heart surged with excitement; this confirmed that the information was indeed reliable, and his trip was not in vain.
As Li Ang got closer to the back of the main passageway, the strength of the interference grew stronger, until he was suspended by a cliff near ninety degrees, at which point he felt the interference reach its peak. One more step, and the strength of the interference began to diminish.
The only upside this time was that in this godforsaken place, there was likely no chance of encountering any mutant creatures to stand in his way.
But at this moment, Li Ang would rather face a mutant creature.
Looking at the thick layer of ice in front of him, and the rock layers behind it, Li Ang finally understood why nobody had thought to mine the [Psychic Crystal] from this spot; it was truly not easy to get one’s hands on.
But having come this far, he could only grit his teeth and start hammering away.
After securing his body, Li Ang picked up his ice axe and began to strike the ice viciously.
