Chapter 218

In such an era, still believing in these so-called seven great principles seems, no matter how you look at it, an extremely incredible or naive and ridiculous thing.

But for Du Wei, there was nothing strange about this.

His name wasn't anything special.

But his surname: "Li Site," possessed the most meritorious and glorious inheritance and history in this world.

A very long time ago, this surname stood proudly above all people.

Even now, after the evolution of time, one surname after another rose, one regime after another alternated, "Li Site" was still one of the most noble surnames in the world, and one could even boldly believe there was no other.

"Li Site" had always been proud of its own traditions and heritage, and even regarded the ancient teachings as the supreme principle.

In their view, the reason why "Li Site" could withstand the test of time and never perish was largely because they kept the ancient teachings and put honor first.

Du Wei Li Site also thought so.

The sky soon darkened, and then entered complete darkness.

Du Wei still hadn't found a suitable camping spot.

But he didn't fall into the predicament of being blind.

With a slight, imperceptible magic fluctuation, his golden pupils gradually covered a layer of deep, dark blue, as if they could see through all darkness and secrets.

With the appearance of this dark blue, the scenery around him changed in Du Wei's eyes.

The originally pitch-black environment, where one couldn't see their fingers, became clear and distinguishable in his eyes.

【Darkvision】.

If Gao De were here to see this scene, he would inevitably be very surprised.

【Darkvision】 is a 2nd-circle spell.

This meant that Du Wei, this youth who looked at most two or three years older than him, was already at least a 2nd-circle magic user.

This was a very exaggerated thing.

Under the dual blessing of 【Longstrider】 and 【Darkvision】, Du Wei moved his steps quickly, continuing to look for tonight's camping spot.

With Du Wei's status, naturally, he wouldn't have the mind, nor should he have the mind, to "love" so-called mountaineering.

The challenge difficulty of mountaineering, for his life, is not worth mentioning, but the process of conquering the extreme environment on this continent can temper a person's will and cultivate a person's temperament.

And this kind of will and temperament is exactly what Li Site must possess.

This was what the first-generation head of Li Site left behind.

Left behind with this sentence were the "Eight Glories".

Reaching the top of Dandong Snow Peak is one of them.

Li Site's inheritance had lasted too long, so long that even Du Wei sometimes couldn't remember the family's history clearly.

But the "Eight Glories" had always been one of Li Site's important traditions.

Therefore, the noble Du Wei appeared quietly in Ailahaimu.

In fact, Du Wei also enjoyed the process of completing the "Eight Glories".

At least in this process, he could temporarily put down the huge pressure he shouldered and only consider the present.

And every time he completed a challenge, the spontaneous feeling of pleasure would also make Du Wei feel a moment of relaxation and joy.

After another ten minutes, Du Wei finally found another suitable camping spot.

Without hesitation, he cleared the ground extremely quickly and set up the tent... As for Gao De, who had fallen into the first camping spot he found, Du Wei no longer considered him.

Because Du Wei was certain that this would be their first and only meeting in Dandong Snow Peak.

Next, the distance between the two would only be pulled further and further apart.

"Know when to retreat early," Du Wei thought.

A person who was clearly younger than him, and his magic user level couldn't possibly exceed his, not even equal to his, under such conditions, how could he challenge Dandong Snow Peak.

Because not to mention anything else, just after halfway, the low temperature of Dandong Snow Peak would exceed the protection interval of 【Endure Environment】 of -45.6 degrees. And as the altitude rises, this temperature will only get lower and lower.

Not a top-tier combat magic user, it is absolutely impossible to complete this challenge.

No, it should be said that even a top-tier combat magic user might not be able to complete this challenge.

In Gao De's previous two lives, the highest mountain he had climbed was actually Mount Tai, known as the "Number One Mountain Under Heaven."

It cannot be said that it is not magnificent, but compared to Dandong Snow Peak, at least in terms of difficulty, it was a bit too pediatrics.

Even with 【Adaptation】, he had to admit that climbing Dandong Snow Peak was an extremely difficult thing.

Even ignoring the extreme environment, the physical exertion of mountaineering is extraordinarily large.

But while exhausted, Gao De's spirit was filled with excitement that was contrary to the fatigue of his body.

Facing this kind of difficult but unknown challenge, Gao De found that he was not afraid, but excited.

Facts proved that a person's character will be reflected in the same way in different things.

Just like solving a problem, facing an unknown difficult problem, Gao De's emotions were often like this.

Because he knew clearly what kind of satisfaction he would gain after solving such a difficult problem.

After another three days of effort, Du Wei arrived at an iconic halfway point of Dandong Snow Peak.

Here, there was a platform protruding and extending out.

Standing on this platform, one could just overlook the entire Ailahaimu at a glance.

And once crossing this platform, one truly entered the Dandong Snow Peak restricted area.

The temperature would officially fall below the lowest endurance temperature of 【Endure Environment】.

And the ley-line creatures occasionally seen in the first half would become increasingly common and fierce after this.

Like all climbers challenging this snow peak, Du Wei climbed the viewing platform to take a short rest to welcome the next challenge, and at the same time, to enjoy the "good scenery".

Overlooking Ailahaimu, which had become extremely tiny, with buildings like black dots.

"Holy Empire..." Du Wei suddenly thought of the news he heard in Ailahaimu.

His brows had already subconsciously furrowed.

When he left, Ailahaimu still belonged to the Saint Xi En Principality.

But when he arrived in Ailahaimu, Ailahaimu already belonged to the Saint Xi En Province, belonging to the Holy Empire.

Du Wei didn't think that the Holy Empire taking the Saint Xi En Principality in the form of an enclave was just a simple territorial expansion.

Clearly, Du Wei had already smelled a scent he didn't like from it.

"The glory of the past cannot always shine on the present,"

There is no flower in the world that never withers.

As the times change to this day, even the Golden Fleur must find ways to face new challenges.

"Father must have a headache now," the young Du Wei, a mischievous smile that shouldn't have appeared on his lips, emerged.

Only in this kind of situation without servants and without the gaze of the outside world paying too much attention, would he reveal such emotions belonging to a young person.

It was just clear that Du Wei was not used to this kind of emotion, and the smile stopped abruptly.

After briefly turning into a slightly awkward look, he quickly returned to his usual "paralyzed face" that made people unable to see his thoughts and emotions.

Withdrawing his gaze from Ailahaimu, Du Wei prepared to continue on his way.

However, in the process of withdrawing his gaze, his pupils shrank suddenly.

Because, he saw a tiny but "familiar" figure.

A figure he thought he wouldn't meet again.
