Chapter 526
Zhang Xiaonian immediately nodded and said, "Great! I'm going to take this seriously this time! I must climb to the very top of Mount Yulongxue!"
Ning Chen glanced at the peak he had chosen to challenge.
Mount Yulongxue stands at an altitude of over five thousand meters; climbing it while carrying Zhang Xiaonian would be an impossible task.
So Ning Chen chose a nearby route suitable for climbing.
It was also located within the Mount Yulongxue range.
However, it was at a certain distance from Mount Yulongxue itself.
Although Mount Yulongxue was not as difficult as Mangshan, very few people could still climb to its summit.
In the tourist scenic area, visitors basically reached the peak by cable car.
So.
Ning Chen planned to take Zhang Xiaonian up the Mount Yulongxue range, then take the cable car up after coming down.
To fully appreciate the boundless scenery of Mount Yulongxue.
Actually.
With Ning Chen's strength, he could have climbed it himself.
But he couldn't just leave Zhang Xiaonian behind alone now.
Bringing Zhang Xiaonian along just to satisfy a little whim was enough; he certainly couldn't really take her to climb the real thing, could he?
An eight-year-old little girl; how could she possibly surpass my lord?
"Big brother! You must keep close behind me!" Zhang Xiaonian said, climbing while occasionally glancing toward Ning Chen.
Ning Chen assured her, "Rest assured, just trust me."
Just like that.
The two of them, one big and one small, kept climbing on the Mount Yulongxue range.
The countless kinds of scenery encountered along the way.
Made the viewers in the live broadcast room exclaim repeatedly.
【Oh my god! Brother Shiguang is actually taking that little girl to climb Mount Yulongxue!】
【That isn't Mount Yulongxue; it's a range climbed from the side. The real Mount Yulongxue, even Ning Chen couldn't climb it with a little girl. You have to know, the difficulty of Mount Yulongxue is very great, it's just not as hard as Mangshan.】
【This scenery is too beautiful! A whole mountain buried in snow! The two reflect each other, truly a feast for the eyes!】
【Could Brother Shiguang's camera be a drone? Looking at this lens, why does it feel so much like a blockbuster film lens!】
【Go for it, Brother Shiguang! Climbing up with the little girl, I believe you can do it!】
【This is Mount Yulongxue! Oh my god, it's truly too beautiful! My greatest wish in this life is to visit Mount Yulongxue once!】
【Brother Shiguang always brings us so many surprises! This trip is definitely not a loss!】
374. Imagination is the root of fear.
"Are you still okay?" Ning Chen asked, seeing Zhang Xiaonian panting from exhaustion.
Zhang Xiaonian turned around, made an OK sign toward Ning Chen, and smiled, saying, "No problem at all! I can climb even higher!"
"Good!" Ning Chen replied. "If you feel the oxygen is insufficient, start breathing oxygen immediately to avoid altitude sickness."
"I know!" Zhang Xiaonian answered quickly, then continued moving on the snow-covered rocks.
Under these climbing conditions, if the shoes weren't very anti-slip, it would be simply impossible to go up.
It wasn't just because climbing was difficult, but also because slipping could lead to accidents and life-threatening dangers.
Ning Chen glanced at the summit.
At this moment, they had only just climbed half the distance.
Fortunately, the difficulty of this small mountain was not high, and they could climb it up very quickly.
Thinking this.
Ning Chen glanced again at the nearby Mount Yulongxue; its height was simply endless to the eye.
It was truly too high.
Originally, Ning Chen had thought Mount Everest wasn't that high.
But seeing Mount Yulongxue today, which was over three thousand meters lower in altitude than it.
He finally understood just how high this level of altitude truly was.
Mangshan isn't high, but it wins on intensity.
If one wanted to conquer this Mount Yulongxue, it wouldn't be too easy either.
Ning Chen relied on his treaded running shoes to avoid slipping on the wet ice.
As for other things.
Whether it was the cold weather, or issues with oxygen and stamina.
They were all perfectly negated under the attributes added by the system.
But thirst was still unavoidable.
Ning Chen saw that the path ahead of Zhang Xiaonian was very safe.
So he took out a water bottle.
He found that the water inside had a layer of ice on top; he could only get water from the sides.
Just as Ning Chen opened his mouth to drink.
He suddenly thought of a question.
He seemed to be able to control the flow of water by virtue of "The One Who Rings the Waves."
Thinking of this.
Ning Chen decided to give it a good try.
Ning Chen's gaze fixed tightly on the water in the bottle; like an instinct, under the control of his will, the water slipped out of the bottle like a water snake.
Then, when it reached the mouth of the bottle.
The water surging out of the bottle mouth, with no support, fell directly to the ground.
Ning Chen watched this scene and murmured, "A bit useless."
Originally, Ning Chen thought this was a very powerful ability.
But now it seems it has no use.
"I thought I could control it to fly or hover in the air, just like a Water Mage," Ning Chen said, giving up on using this ability and pressing his mouth to the bottle mouth to drink.
"Without support, it still cannot come out; I can only control its flow, I cannot do other things with it."
This situation left Ning Chen greatly disappointed.
The possibility of becoming a Water Saint-level Mage no longer existed.
Water flow is like this.
As for controlling lightning, it would probably just be controlling electric current.
For example, blocking or releasing the resistance of a power strip.
That is all.
Soon.
Ning Chen followed behind Zhang Xiao and continued climbing.
Looking at the peak not far away.
Zhang Xiao revealed a smile.
Just a little bit more, and success would be achieved!
He could count himself as a mountaineer!
Able to see the scenery on the mountain.
For Zhang Xiao, this held a different kind of persistence.
This could be considered what he had earned through hard struggle.
Currently.
The mountain Ning Chen and Zhang Xiao were climbing.
Was not considered high.
Only about eight hundred meters.
Such data, if it were horizontal distance, might not feel like anything.
But once converted into vertical distance, it was high.
