"Come on, let's climb up!"
As he moved towards the black mountain, Austin motioned his companions to follow him.
He had the Geomancy Compass and the Layne's Ruler with him to help them guide their way.
Upon hearing Austin call for them, the others followed him closely for fear that they might lose their way or make a mistake if they got distracted for even a second.
For protection, hundreds of yellow wooden stakes emitting a strong aura floated around them.
To provide an additional shield, dozens of earth dragons also moved around them.
Clap! Crack! Boom!
The moment everyone stepped on the black mountain, a monstrous thunder had once again growled from the sky above them.
This time, however, the thunder seemed weaker than before.
Nonetheless, the thunderbolts were still powerful enough to hit most of the yellow wooden stakes and some earth dragons.
Thanks to them, Austin and his companions weren't hurt badly.
"Everyone, pay attention to your breath. Try not to release your own energy," Austin instructed them in a deep voice.
"It might accidentally disturb the energy balance in the surroundings. If they sense our energy, we might become the target of those lightning attacks.
Besides, I'm using the Geomancy Compass and the Earth Energy to detect which spots are relatively safer to tread.
So just follow my steps and tracks precisely. We have to be careful."
His eyebrows furrowed as he scanned their surroundings.
As if they were comforted by his order, the others did as he said.
They knew that if Austin wasn't leading the way, they wouldn't even have the courage to break into this terrifying Thunder Mountain.
It was a huge black mountain, and it was emitting an indescribable and horrible aura that made everyone feel haunted.
Piles of corpses and bones were scattered all over the place.
As they walked past them, they sensed that those belonged to divine gods since their divine auras still lingered over them.
Seeing those hundreds of piles of bones and corpses, they realized that countless divine gods used to come to the Thunder Mountain and tried to climb up. However, they would be killed by the lightning halfway before they could even reach the top.
Clap! Crash! Boom!
Dozens of thunderbolts rolled down and lit up the whole place.
Austin and his companions continued to move forward carefully towards the top of the mountain.
"Ah! I got hit again! It hurts!"
"Ow! My whole arm got burnt! That lightning was terrifying!
Good thing I was able to move, so I quickly dodged it. Otherwise, my head would be split apart!"
"I got hit on my back too!"
All of them grimaced and screamed with pain. No one knew how many times they had been hit by the lightning before they even reached their destination.
Crack!
The wooden stakes floating around them had been blown up by lightning just when they arrived at the hillside.
In an instant, about six earth dragons had also been blown up to pieces.
"We should hurry! Let's go!"
Austin urged them to move faster. In his mind, he had also been stupefied, but he tried his best not to look fazed. Without much ado, he bit his tongue and spurted more than a dozen mouthfuls of blood essence onto the Geomancy Compass.
Buzz!
The Geomancy Compass shook violently the moment it got stained with Austin's blood. It then hummed and swiftly moved forward.
As if it had been ignited, the golden needle on the plate emitted a dazzling golden light and rotated quickly. When it stopped, it pointed to the direction where Austin and the others were going.
"All right, let's move!"
Austin shouted, trying to mask his fear.
He was desperate to get out of there as soon as he could, so he began to run.
All of his companions locked their eyes on his footsteps and followed him closely. None of them could afford the consequences of stepping into a different path.
Everyone knew that this was a land of death. One mistake and both their body and soul might end up in destruction.
After two hours' worth of hiking, they were finally close to the top of the mountain.
"Awesome!
I can see it! The top isn't so far away anymore!
Even so, I'm awfully tired. If we go on like this, even if we don't get killed by that terrifying lightning, we'll probably die of exhaustion." Magee spoke with both joy and frustration while he tried to catch his breath.
As they climbed the mountain, they had to deal with the lightning that was constantly attacking them, along with the need to resist the terrible pressure emitted by this huge mountain. It was indeed a very tiring climb.
