Chapter 396: Are You the Best Sword of Mount Hua?
The first feeling I had upon arriving at Mount Hua was reverence.
It was steeper than expected and far taller than I’d imagined. Parts of it were shrouded in clouds, and in some places, rocks jutted up like countless swords. To my crooked eyes, it looked like a mountain with a violent personality.
Of course, I wasn’t the only one who saw it that way.
Everyone had looks of awe they couldn’t quite hide—standing before Mount Hua, we were all just country bumpkins.
“......”
But what surprised me most {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} was that, contrary to my expectations, Mount Hua wasn’t a good place to fight.
Everywhere I looked, it was cliffs and boulders—how the hell was anyone supposed to fight properly in a place like this?
From the attacker’s perspective, Mount Hua was an impregnable fortress. If a dozen martial masters who knew the terrain well held their ground and caused chaos, they could wipe out entire armies.
On the other hand, it was an excellent place to train.
Climb it once, and you’d never want to come back down for days. Just climbing this mountain seemed like it would deepen your killing intent.
If someone could go up and down Mount Hua without that kind of murderous energy settling into their heart, then they must be a sage.
But right now, it was already a situation where those with deep-seated killing intent had to clash. A mountain like this would only piss off the Cult Leader. I needed to change my thinking.
