Chapter 2512: Steep Thorn Ridge
"This mountain road is so hard to walk; the terrain is steep, and there are thorns everywhere. My clothes are all torn!"
Tianpeng complained at this moment.
"I'm still carrying the luggage; not only are my clothes torn, but my legs are also covered in many wounds."
Sha Wujing glanced at everyone and said at this time.
Tang Seng was riding on the White Dragon Horse. At this moment, the White Dragon Horse was standing sideways on the hillside, its feet on smooth rocks, and it had already started to slip.
Tang Seng also got off the horse and decided to lead it forward.
"No matter where we are heading, we must pass through. This is the only road leading to the Western Heaven."
Tang Seng glanced at the Westward Journey group and said.
"Is that so?"
Sun Wukong looked at Tang Seng with doubt in his eyes.
"I just flew to a high altitude to look; this mountain range stretches for eight hundred miles, and this small path is indeed the only road."
"It's strange to say, why is the western border of a great country like Jisaiguo so blocked? Has no one come to open it up?"
Fahai frowned with his thick eyebrows and said.
Sun Wukong recalled Wu Feng's words. Looking at such terrain, he guessed that the Kalpa Tribulation would probably happen here.
He opened the Ebony Treasure Box in his hand, but it still wouldn't open.
So, he looked up at the others and said, "Fahai, Bajie, the three of us will clear the path in front, otherwise, if we walk this road, it will probably be dark by the time we get through."
Fahai and Tianpeng both nodded.
So, Fahai turned his hand into a palm, golden light overflowing from the edge of his palm. As he swung his arm, beams of golden blade light immediately cut through the thorns ahead.
Tianpeng also raised his Nine-Toothed Rake and began to sweep away the thorns on both sides of the small path.
Sun Wukong danced his staff like a flower, walking at the very front. Wherever he passed, the thorns broke one after another.
"Aiya, it hurts!"
Suddenly, a scream rang out.
Sun Wukong immediately became alert and began to release his spiritual sense to search for demonic aura in the surroundings.
However, where his spiritual sense reached, he found nothing. Sun Wukong stood where he was, somewhat confused, and muttered to himself, "Did I hear wrong?"
"What's wrong? Great Senior Brother?"
Tianpeng also stepped forward, looked at Sun Wukong, and said.
"I seemed to hear a sound just now, but I didn't find any trace of demonic aura."
Sun Wukong looked at Tianpeng and said very seriously.
"No way, why didn't I hear it? Is something wrong with your ears?"
Tianpeng looked at Sun Wukong and then frowned as he spoke.
Sun Wukong didn't pay attention to Tianpeng. He placed his hand over his eyebrows and surveyed the terrain of the mountain range. He saw that the entire mountain range was extremely steep and covered in thorns, with few trees of any kind.
Such terrain was too strange. Supposedly, this was the border of Jisaiguo, and since Jisaiguo received tributes from surrounding countries, the King should have opened this place up.
However, it was desolate and uninhabited here, and even that small path was often hidden in the weeds. It seemed that not many people walked here.
Behind them, Tang Seng was walking with great difficulty. As a mortal, climbing such a mountain ridge covered in thorns was clearly a very difficult task.
The White Dragon Horse also understood. He transformed into the appearance of the White Dragon Ao Lie, ran forward, took Tang Seng's hand, and said, "Master, let me lead you; this road is too dangerous!"
Sha Wujing also surveyed the surrounding environment and cursed angrily, "Hmph! Poor mountains and evil waters, there must be monsters!"
As they walked, thick fog suddenly began to rise.
