The strongest man in the ninja world

"Did you have a conflict with the people from the church? Did you become so murderous?" The old mage glanced at Shuina's head.

Shuina knew that it was the red name effect he had when he was trying to kill the player, but according to the old mage, it was not a big difference to say that the red name effect was murderous.

After all, he did kill many people.

However, what made Shuina feel weirdest was that it actually took him almost a whole morning to kill someone this time, which made him feel very strange. Because in his memory, this morning passed very quickly!

Shuina didn't speak, just nodded as a response.

"Such a murderous intention, I don't know if it will affect the fusion of the elemental heart. However, we don't have much time, so if you fail, it can only be said that you are out of luck." The old mage sighed. He nodded to Farr.

After that, I saw the green light on Fal's body flickering. The moment it appeared, the green light immediately expanded and formed a sword field, including the old mage and Shuina beside him.

Shuinai didn't feel any vibration at all in Chief Fal's sword domain, but he could see through the thin outer layer of the sword domain that the Yunwu Town under his feet was getting smaller and smaller. After only a short while, they had reached an altitude of almost three thousand meters.

"Okay, that's enough, just stop here." Before Shuinai could take a photo of the aerial view of Yunwu Town at his feet, the old mage pointed to a majestic mountain peak and signaled to land there. .

There was also no vibration, and Shuina found herself halfway up a mountain peak, a mountainside covered by a thin layer of snow. In front of him, there was a cloud so dense that it was difficult to see clearly what was going on inside.

Shuina remembered that Miyuki said that this snow mountain surrounded by clouds and mist is called Holy Snow Mountain, and it is one of the holy places in Yunwu Town. Normally, even the residents of Yunwu Town are not allowed to enter casually. It is said that the clouds and mist on the mountainside have the ability to trap people forever.

"Follow me closely, don't go wrong, the place below is more than 3,000 meters high." The old mage said as he walked into the clouds and mist.

Seeing this, Shuina immediately followed, while Far walked at the end, only half a meter away from Shuina.

In the clouds and fog that were so dense that it was almost impossible to see anything one meter away, Shuina could only see the blurry and hunched back in front of her.

The three of them walked slowly towards the mountain peak, but Shuinai knew that they were not walking in a straight line, but in zigzags. Moreover, as the height increased, Shuina began to feel that the surrounding clouds and mist were a bit strange.

Because the surrounding clouds and mist seemed to have the miraculous effect of absorbing sound. Along the way, Shuina, who calmed down, found very sensitively that the surrounding sounds had disappeared, leaving only the "sand" when the snow under his feet was squeezed. Rustling" sound.

Also disappearing was his sense of resonance with the elements. Shuina remembered that before entering the clouds, the ubiquitous elements had always been around him, but it seemed that after entering, they were slowly weakened. Shuina didn't notice it right away.

If he hadn't been able to see the back of the old mage in front of him, he might have started to get confused now.

However, Shuina knew that in this completely unknown environment, he could only trust the old mage leading the way.

After walking for half an hour, Shuina already felt that the air around him was a little thinner. Although this had little effect on him, it was just that his endurance value was declining faster. However, the problem now is that there is more and more snow under his feet. Now the snow has reached his calves, and the surrounding clouds and fog are getting thicker and thicker.

Among them, what surprised Shuina the most was that at some point, the old mage's clear shoe prints began to appear on the ground, and these shoe prints were all at the same depth. Not deep, not shallow, just enough for Shuina to see clearly.

However, as if it were a price, the figure of the old mage became increasingly hazy.

However, just after Shuina followed the shoe prints for another half an hour, he suddenly discovered that the shoe prints in front of him were missing. But the clouds in front of him were very bright, as if he had reached the edge of the clouds.

However, at this time, Shuina was a little hesitant, because he knew that there would be such a bright situation, and there was another possibility, that is, the front might be a cliff, a cliff that the clouds and mist could not rely on. Once this step is empty, then I am afraid that it will not be far from being shattered into pieces.

At this moment, Shuina, who had lost her direction, could only look back. However, Farr disappeared behind him at some point, and there were only his own shoe prints on the ground.

"This..." Seeing that there were really only his own shoe prints on the ground, Shuina felt that the situation was strange again.

No matter from which direction, Shuina could not hear any sound, nor could she see anything except clouds and mist. Even the snow on the ground gave Shuina a feeling of déjà vu.

"Am I lost?" Shuina asked secretly.

The only difference around him now is that the clouds and mist directly in front of his body are obviously brighter than those around him, and this is also the direction in which the old mage disappeared in his memory.

After Shuina once again confirmed that this direction was correct from his memory, he took a deep breath and took a step forward. When he took this step, he immediately found a dazzling ray of sunshine in front of him.

This made him accustomed to the white mist in his eyes, and he narrowed his eyes a little unbearably.

However, I don't know whether it was because Shuinai had been in a humid environment like clouds and mist for a long time, or because of other reasons. When Shuinai was hit by the sunlight, she only felt that the sunlight was full of gentle heat. But this kind of warmth does not come from the outside, but bursts out from the heart.

At the very least, Shuina specially added cotton-padded clothes to keep out the cold on the road, which did not make her body feel stuffy.

"Welcome to the peak of Holy Snow Mountain, and congratulations on finding your own direction in the last step." The old mage's words rang in Shuina's ears.

"What just happened was..." Shuina guessed that what just happened was a trial, but he really wanted to know the purpose of the trial.

"The clouds and mists you walked through just now were a test of the mage's state of mind, called the Holy Snow Test. In this silent environment just now, you performed well and did not yell or scream. He did not use his own equipment, but walked firmly step by step. At this point, you have to remember that in the road of mage, there are shortcuts, but you must walk through it step by step." Old Mage He said with a smile.

And Shuina also knew what he was referring to. Just now, in fact, when Shuina found the snow covering his legs, he thought of Phantom Stealth, but considering the environment, he did not dare to use the acceleration speed. The effect is 200%.

As for the yelling issue, it was entirely because of fear of avalanche. This is common sense for modern people, but some people can't remember it, but Shuina remembered it just now.

Seeing Shuina patiently listening to his words, the old mage paused and then said, "And at the last step, you hesitated. No, it should be said that you are rational, although the result of this rationality makes you question Many mages may be dismissive of the path they take, because they think this kind of rationality is a cowardly behavior.

"However, the kind of path that is irrational and relies only on blood and impulse to think that you can go to the end is not the path of a mage. At the very least, it is impossible for such a mage to survive to the end. Stop from time to time and think about the path you are taking. Whether the road is wrong or not is an important signpost for a person's continuous growth, because only in this way can he know whether he has gone astray." Seeing that Shuina was deep in thought, the old mage stopped again.

"Impulse?" Could it be that what he said was what he had done today, but it was indeed related to impulse. After all, he immediately became angry after hearing the news about the unscrupulous businessman.

"As for the last step you took after questioning, it shows that you have not given up on your own path. This kind of firm belief can give a person unlimited possibilities."

"So, you must remember in the future that being down-to-earth, staying rational, always reflecting and firm belief are the conditions that a mage must have to grow up. As my disciple, you have done well in these aspects so far. However, I don't want today's It happened again. Before you have grown up, fighting with the people of the church is just asking for your own death."

"I will remember it, but Village Chief Farr..." Shuinai suddenly remembered that Farr was still in the clouds.

"It's just a cloud formation. There is no danger to Far at all. It's just that he has some understanding in it now. We'll just wait." After the old mage finished speaking, he walked forward.

At this time, Shuina also had time to look at the surrounding scenery.

The peaks of this Holy Snow Mountain are completely shrouded in clouds and mist that are as thick as dark clouds. The only thing that is not affected by the clouds and mist is the sky above the head. Looking up, it looks like a huge mouth. Like a deep well.

The surrounding clouds and mist as the walls of the well were slowly moving in a very strange pattern, but Shuina remembered not noticing this in the clouds and mist. But in the core of this cloud and mist, this operation is very obvious.

Walking through the thick snow, Shuina followed the old mage in front and climbed to the final peak.

On the peak of the Holy Snow Mountain, Shuina looked at it with some confusion. There was no trace of snow on the peak, and it was surrounded by exposed rocks. And in the center of the peak, a clear spring gurgled.

Under this clear spring is a pool as calm as a mirror. This pool is not deep, only about one meter deep, but it seems that it will never overflow. Even though the clear spring above it continues to flow in, it does not create any waves or overflow.
