Chapter 370

Mangshan.

Ning Chen was challenging this mountain.

The goal was the Eye of Hell at the summit.

The scenery up there had only ever been captured by aerial photography.

But because the mist at the summit was thick.

It was hard to see clearly.

So.

The scenery up there was like a veil covering everyone's face.

Unclear.

Unfathomable.

And.

That layer of mystery.

Made people even more addicted to it.

Unable to extricate themselves.

Three-fifths of the path.

Was much easier than imagined.

The mountain road was not too steep.

Relying on the map indication.

In the system within his mind.

Ning Chen did not spend too much time and energy.

And passed through here.

Next.

Was the four-fifths section of the road.

At this moment.

Everyone in the live broadcast room became tense.

Now was the most difficult challenge!

Even the Geological Research Bureau.

The top scholar, Zhu Lao.

Also drew in a sharp breath of cold air at this moment.

A student asked, "Teacher, do you think he can succeed?"

Zhu Lao sighed, then shook his head and said, "I don't know. Although it looks to you now that the possibility of this streamer named Brother Shiguang succeeding in challenging Mangshan is high, but specifically how it will go, only those of us who have climbed Mangshan know."

After saying this.

Zhu Lao hesitated for a moment, then found a seat to sit down and lit a cigarette.

He slowly exhaled the smoke, his gaze somewhat vacant, as if searching for those past times.

Everything that had happened.

Had it all vanished into thin air?

It once was.

But with the appearance of Zhu Lao's senior brother.

Everything had returned.

The students all turned to look at Zhu Lao, and no one dared to step forward and say anything.

Because they had known Zhu Lao for a long time.

They knew his basic habits.

Zhu Lao.

Only in pain and struggle.

Would he light a cigarette.

Not long after.

Zhu Lao's eyes finally regained their luster.

His mouth open, he murmured.

No one could hear clearly what he was saying.

After a long while.

Zhu Lao finally looked at his students and said, "From now on, this is the real Mangshan. Countless climbers can pass the first half, and professionals can reach Brother Shiguang's current position, but those who have climbed Mangshan all know."

"Up there is the hardest." Zhu Lao looked at the live broadcast screen again, "Because there is not only mist interference up there, the most common thing on that mountain is avalanches."

"And the elevation drop of Mangshan is too great, landslides are also frequent, the probability of encountering an avalanche is very high. Back then, my junior sister, because she was scattered by an avalanche, could not distinguish directions, and died in Mangshan, while only my senior brother and I survived."

Saying this.

Zhu Lao, who was originally unyielding and firm, also shed two tears.

The students seeing Zhu Lao like this also felt a bit heartache.

An old man over fifty years old, actually shedding tears in front of a group of juniors.

And this old man was the highest representative of the Geological Research Bureau.

Everyone sighed with emotion.

Quickly.

Zhu Lao wiped away his tears and said to the students, "Let us watch Brother Shiguang climb the mountain. I believe he will surely scale the peak that no one else can climb; he will be stronger than all of us!"

They watched the live broadcast feed.

At this moment.

Ning Chen was climbing upward from a sheer cliff face.

According to the system's instructions.

He had to pass through this 8"

"2.

But this sheer cliff was fully over twenty meters high.

Beneath Ning Chen's feet lay a precipice; if he lost his strength or if some accident occurred.

Falling down would mean instant death.

Even Ning Chen would be no exception.

What was gratifying was.

That beneath Ning Chen's feet at this moment were the nails left behind by the previous climbing team.

These nails were embedded deep into the mountain body.

Moreover, their material was extremely hard, so there was no need to worry about the risk of them breaking.

Ning Chen was constantly alternating his left and right feet, stepping on the nails to climb upward.

In his heart, he felt some gratitude and admiration.

He had reached this place only through the system.

And now he still needed the help of those people to advance faster and more safely.

This showed just how much effort the climbers of those years had exerted to conquer this Mangshan.

Ning Chen did not know.

That this mountain had never been conquered by anyone.

Moreover, this mountain.

Was piled high with bones.

Just as Ning Chen was about to cross the cliff and climb up.

At the connection point between a nail and the mountain body.

It seemed that because the nail was driven in too deeply, the rock beside it had become fragile.

That nail, along with the rock, instantly collapsed.

"Boom!"

Countless rolling stones tumbled down toward the cliff below.
