C169 Finally I Wait
After a light sigh, Chen Yu slowly squatted down, grabbed Mo Ming's collar and tried to pick him up.
Crack * Mo Ming's clothes were torn apart, but his body remained motionless.
The pressure was too great, causing Mo Ming's body to weigh more than ten thousand pounds. The clothes on his body could not bear such weight at all.
Chen Yu suddenly realized that his promise to Mo Shu was a little out of the question. He had neglected the difficulty of bringing Mo Ming's corpse down under such a terrifying pressure!
For a martial artist, carrying a weight of 100 to 200 jins is not a big deal." But in this tower, under the omnipresent terrifying pressure, this 200 jin weight was immediately magnified to 10 to 20 thousand jin. This was a bit fatal!
All of a sudden, Chen Yu was a bit hesitant.
The most rational decision was to ignore them and tell Mo Shu that he couldn't do it, but since he had already made a promise, Chen Yu didn't want to go back on his word.
This had nothing to do with his favorable impression of Mo Shu. It was only related to his principles and bottom line as a human being.
Of course, Chen Yu could still wait until the time when the pressure disappeared. By then, the pressure on Mo Ming's body would no longer be there and it would be very easy to take him down. However, Chen Yu did not have the time to wait!
The higher up the tower, the greater the pressure, and the harder it was to advance. The time it took for the pressure to disappear was very short. If he did not take advantage of that opportunity to rush to the top of the tower, then he would be wasting his time!
It was one thing to waste time as Qiao Zhiyan reached the top of the tower first. However, if a year of time was wasted and Qiao Zhiyan was unable to reach the top within half a year, Chen Yu would not be able to bear the consequences!
Calculating the time, the Ruling Spirit Sect and City Battle Trial only had a little more than half a year left. If Chen Yu couldn't join the City Battle Trial, the result of Chen Family Castle would be almost disastrous!
If Chen Yu was unable to participate in the City Battle Trial, then his trade with Mrs. Ya would become void. Mrs. Ya might not be willing to wait three years for Chen Yu to participate in the next City Battle Trial. Other than that, Jun Family and Su Qinghuan would give up on Chen Yu because of this, and would not give Chen Yu any more support. There was no reason for them to fight on behalf of Chen Yu, Su Qingfeng, and other Su Family's forces for three more years!
Three years was too long, it was so long that it was full of variables!
Therefore, no matter what, Chen Yu could not stay here for too long, and had even missed out on the City Battle Trial s.
After a bitter smile, Chen Yu took a deep breath and reached under Mo Ming's body with both of his arms to help Mo Ming up.
With the exertion of both arms, Chen Yu felt as if he was holding a real mountain, extremely heavy.
Chen Yu groaned. Blue veins could be seen on his forehead as he arched his back to the extreme. Sweat dripped down the tip of his nose.
Slowly, Chen Yu lifted Mo Ming up a little bit before he slowly stood up.
Kaka kaka, Chen Yu heard his spine making an unbearable sound. Even though it was mixed with the aura of the Emperor Bone, Chen Yu still felt that it was extremely difficult.
Chen Yu's own body was already under the pressure of the majestic and terrifying pressure. Now, supporting Mo Ming up was equivalent to increasing the pressure by twofold, which was far beyond the limit of what he could bear.
The blood in Chen Yu's body that was calming down on the surface started to surge rapidly, like a storm raging tide in the vast sea, crazily spiraling in his blood vessels.
Chen Yu slowly stood up as the extreme power of his powerful physique was released.
Chen Yu felt as if his body was going to be crushed into the tower. He didn't know what material the white jade stone was made of, but it was extremely hard. Chen Yu exerted force on it with his feet and only left shallow footprints.
Finally, Chen Yu supported Mo Ming up.
Sweat poured down like rain, soaking his hair and pouring through his heavy clothes.
Then, Chen Yu walked down with incredible difficulty. With one step, Chen Yu's body, which had been tempered by the Blood Flame Tyrant Spell, trembled uncontrollably.
Chen Yu gritted his teeth to the point that they almost shattered.
With one step, the pressure on Chen Yu lessened.
Afterwards, Chen Yu stabilized his body and carried Mo Ming's corpse down the stairs.
As Chen Yu walked down, the pressure gradually lessened. After walking down five to six steps, Chen Yu could finally catch his breath.
But even so, Chen Yu walked very slowly and with great difficulty. There were several times when he thought he wouldn't be able to get up, but he was still able to hold on.
After an unknown period of time, Chen Yu arrived at a height of 150 to 160 feet. Then, he walked horizontally along the stairs, crossing the edge of the tower and returning to his original side.
"Big brother!" Seeing Chen Yu appear once again, Mo Shu, who had already reached a height of one hundred and twenty feet, shouted. She stared fixedly at Mo Ming's body that Chen Yu was holding, and her tears fell like rain.
Chen Yu had no time to care about Mo Shu's feelings. He carried Mo Ming and walked down until they were at the same height as Mo Shu.
It took another two hours for the exhausted Chen Yu to reunite with Mo Shu, who was walking towards them.
After putting down Mo Ming's body, Chen Yu gasped for breath. He was so tired that he just wanted to lie down and stop moving.
Although the pressure was gradually reducing, Chen Yu was constantly exhausting his energy. It was as though he was moving a mountain; he was still tired to death.
"Big brother!" Mo Shu's emotions had a little bit of time and space, and her body became unsteady. Under the pressure of the strong pressure, her knees went soft and she knelt on the ground. Tears welled up in her eyes as she caressed Mo Ming's face.
Chen Yu didn't have any thoughts of comforting Mo Shu. He forced himself to concentrate and swallowed a few Medicine Pill s. After eating some rations, he leaned against the stairs and fell asleep.
The distance from here to the ground was only about a hundred and twenty feet. The intensity of the pressure was far less than that at a height of two hundred feet, so this time, Chen Yu slept rather easily.
When Chen Yu fell into a deep slumber, Mo Shu's mood gradually recovered. She sat beside her brother's corpse and her gaze finally landed on Chen Yu's face on the other side.
Mo Shu's eyes flashed with deep gratitude as she stared at Chen Yu's extremely tired face. She didn't look away for a long time.
Chen Yu finally woke up after sleeping for a long time.
The moment he opened his eyes, Chen Yu found himself facing Mo Shu's gaze. The latter's gaze was filled with a complicated and peculiar emotion.
"It can be considered as fulfilling my mission!" Chen Yu said to Mo Shu with a smile.
"Thank you so much!" Mo Shu said, "Young Master Chen, the Mo family will remember your kindness towards us!"
"Miss Mo is too polite, I have already gained a lot from taking your Storage Bag. This is not a favor!" Chen Yu took out Mo Ming's Storage Bag and handed it over, saying: "Among your personal belongings, take whatever you want back!"
Mo Shu was a little surprised, but she still took the Storage Bag and opened the bag first to take a look inside.
Mo Shu was stunned as she looked over. Obviously, she didn't expect her brother to have so many treasures in his Storage Bag.
However, in the next moment, Mo Shu felt relieved. After looking for a while, her hand reached into the Storage Bag and fumbled. In the end, she only took out a letter, a badge and some clothes.
Then, Mo Shu handed the Storage Bag back to Chen Yu.
"Is that all? You're not taking back the weapon that your brother carried with him? " Chen Yu looked deeply at Mo Shu and asked.
"No need!" Mo Shu said, "Being able to bring my brother back is already enough. My brother's sword is a gift to Young Master Chen!"
Mo Shu was so straightforward without the slightest bit of greed. This made Chen Yu feel that this woman was indeed worth befriending.
Without further ado, Chen Yu got up and said: "Well then, goodbye!"
"En!" Knowing that Chen Yu was about to reach the top of the tower, Mo Shu nodded and said, "I hope that young master can reach the top as soon as possible and unravel the secrets of this place. I also hope that Mo Shu can bring my brother back to Donwu City as soon as possible!"
"I will try my best!"
Chen Yu nodded and walked up the stairs.
Without the burden, Chen Yu felt much easier to walk up the stairs. Although the pressure would still affect him, it wouldn't cause much trouble for him.
Chen Yu's speed was very fast. In just three days' time, he had returned to a height of 200 feet.
After reaching this height, Chen Yu sat down to recover his strength.
Time passed, and soon, a few more days had passed.
At a certain moment, Chen Yu felt his body lighten and the omnipresent pressure suddenly disappeared.
Chen Yu was already prepared. He immediately leaped up and launched his movement technique as he rushed forward.
The sudden disappearance of the pressure did not cause Chen Yu any discomfort. In just a few breaths of time, his speed had reached its limit, and he rushed to the top of the tower, moving in a straight line.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Yu had shot past a height of 200 feet. During this entire time, he had been calculating the time, and when he felt that it was about time, he immediately slowed down. At the same time, he channeled a bit of the Emperor Bone's Qi into his meridians, causing his true qi to surge.
The next moment, the pressure that was like the collapse of the sky came crashing down.
Chen Yu's body froze and he fell straight down the stairs.
It was a good thing that the appearance of the Emperor Bone caused Chen Yu's zhenqi to flow a little bit when it was suppressed by this terrifying pressure, allowing him to adjust his posture in time.
After landing, Chen Yu still felt his body as heavy as a mountain. It was as if his entire body was frozen, and he couldn't move at all.
The formless pressure completely restricted Chen Yu, causing his back to bend down. Even if he had broken through the second level of Blood Flame Tyrant Spell, he still wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure.
Chen Yu knew that it was already a dream for him to take even one more step up the pressure. He could only wait for the next gap in the pressure to disappear!
Fortunately, his height was not too far from the top of the tower. He was only several hundred feet away. As long as the pressure disappeared for the third time, he would be able to reach the top!
Thus, Chen Yu sat down in an extremely awkward position. He then drew out a wisp of Emperor Bone Qi and channeled it into his body before starting to cultivate with great difficulty.
Time passed. Amidst the boredom, Chen Yu did not know how much time had passed as he cultivated day after day.
Chen Yu's body was adapting to the strong pressure at a height of 400 feet. In the end, perhaps his Zhen Qi had broken through its limit, but the speed of his Zhen Qi had actually reached 20% of its usual speed!
Chen Yu looked down occasionally, Mo Jia was still climbing at a height of two hundred and fifty meters with great difficulty.
Mo Shu brought Mo Ming's body back to the ground.
Yuen Cheng was still cultivating at a height of a few hundred feet!
"Chen Yu!" One day, Chen Yu suddenly heard a weak voice.
The voice came from Qiao Zhiyan, who was on the other side of the tower.
Judging by the sound, Chen Yu found that Qiao Zhiyan was at a lower position than him by 30 to 50 feet. Obviously, the last time the pressure suddenly dropped, the distance Qiao Zhiyan took advantage of this opportunity was not as far as the first time!
Moreover, from the weak voice, it could be seen that Qiao Zhiyan was holding on with great difficulty.
Chen Yu raised the corner of his mouth into a faint smile, but did not reply.
