110 On the third platform
The nine-petaled jasper flowers on the first platform are the easiest to pick. One is that the pressure here is only ten times, which is the least pressure among the five platforms. The other is that the monsters that protect the nine-petaled jasper flowers are relatively low in strength and are only at the peak of the Qi training period, which is easier to deal with.
Liu Bo looked at both sides of the platform and found that there were a fewer monks entering the right side, so he walked to the right.
The place on the right has long been carefully searched by the trialists who came first. There is no shadow of the nine-petaled jasper flower. If you want to pick it, you must continue to go deeper into it.
Liu Bo walked two or three miles away, and the trialists he encountered gradually became rare. With Liu Bo's strength, there was naturally no need to compete with them. He continued to go deeper for three or four miles. It was already rare here, so he began to search for the nine-petaled Jasper Flower with all his strength.
The nine-petal jasper flowers are green in color, and each flower must have nine petals, with a huge flower shape. The nine-petal jasper flowers that have been in the past ones have a foot-length diameter. With such obvious characteristics, the nine-petal jasper flowers nearby are easily discovered. Liu Bo walked here and found two at the same time.
There is a monster guarding each nine-petaled jade flower. Only by killing the guardian monster can you successfully pick the elixir. The strength of the monster here is only the peak of the Qi training period. Even if you add ten times the pressure, it is not an obstacle for Liu Bo.
In front of each monster, Liu Bo only used one move and easily killed the guardian beast, and successfully picked two nine-petaled jasper flowers.
Without any delay, Liu Bo continued to go deeper.
After walking ten miles, he harvested four nine-petaled jasper flowers in total. Liu Bo was not very satisfied with such a harvest. Although Liu Bo was effortless to kill the guardian monster, the number of nine-petaled jasper flowers was too small. He needed to go far before he could occasionally find one.
Liu Bo knew that the nine-petaled jasper flowers were so rare, it must be because a trialist who came first had searched it. He came too late and lost the opportunity to pick it first.
The first platform has almost no nine-petaled jasper flowers that are more than a hundred years old, and the number is so rare that Liu Bo simply did not waste his time and returned to the stone steps and continued to climb upwards.
He estimated that on the second platform, there should be few monks who can kill guardian monsters under tremendous pressure. Even if some extremely genius monks can do it, there will definitely not be many such people. The platform extends to a very wide range. As long as there are not many people searching for spiritual medicines, the number of spiritual medicines that Liu Bo picks will far exceed the harvest of the first platform.
The second stage was also two thousand stone steps, and Liu Bo took more than half an hour to reach the top.
Standing on the platform, Liu Bo looked to both sides. Sure enough, there were very few monks who picked spiritual medicines among them.
After Liu Bo went deep into two miles, he could no longer meet the trialists who picked spiritual medicines. Moreover, the nine-petaled jasper flower here will appear almost every few hundred meters. As long as he has the ability to kill the guardian monster, the nine-petaled jasper flower can be said to be able to pick it up.
The monsters here are already in the early stage of concentrating spirit, and there are only a very few top-level monks in the realm that can be compared. In addition, the guardian monsters are not affected by the pressure here, and their own strength is not limited, but the trialists have to bear about twenty times the pressure. They are not extremely outstanding in the realm of true essence and spiritual skills. There is absolutely no possibility of picking nine-petaled jade flowers here.
Facing the monster in the early stage of concentrating spirit, Liu Bo did not use magic weapons, and used several spiritual skills in turn. Almost every time he made a move, he could kill the guardian monster in an instant.
Now that time is precious, he no longer has the idea of using the early stage of the concentrating monster to hone his spiritual skills. He just wants to kill the guardian monster as soon as possible and pick more nine-petaled jasper flowers in a short period of time.
Within an hour, Liu Bo pushed forward ten miles, and all the nine-petaled jasper flowers in this range were picked by him. He picked a total of thirty-two nine-petaled jasper flowers here, which made him extremely satisfied in terms of quantity.
Liu Bo originally thought that the nine-petal jasper flower here would have a longer growth period, but he did not expect that he still only had about a hundred years of medicinal effect. He did not pick a more advanced nine-petal jasper flower.
This situation must be because the last trialists have searched all the places here. The nine-petaled jasper flowers picked by Liu Bo have grown up over the past century.
Liu Bo continued to go deeper quickly and took half a day to pick more than 100 nine-petaled jade flowers. Unfortunately, these nine-petaled jade flowers only have about a hundred years of medicinal effect, and they have a longer growth period, so he did not find a single one.
Although Liu Bo can still gain even more if he continues to go deeper, the nine-petaled jasper flowers here only have a hundred years of medicinal effect and do not have much effect on Liu Bo. No matter how many people pick it, it can only be exchanged for spirit stones, which is meaningless.
He decided not to waste time and continue climbing to the heights.
The third stage is still two thousand stone steps. Liu Bo did not use his true energy and relied on his own strength to enter the third platform.
Liu Bo has surpassed many trialists along the way. It seems that some more genius monks can all enter the third platform.
However, being able to climb to the third platform does not mean that you can pick spiritual medicines on the third platform. As long as you have strong willpower, even monks at the top of Qi Refining may climb here. However, if you want to pick spiritual medicines on this platform, you must kill the mid-stage guardian monster with no suppression.
The pressure on the third platform is thirty times, and even standing here is an extremely difficult thing. Under such great pressure, only a few top geniuses can do it when facing the monster beast in the mid-stage concentrating state.
Most of the monks who can reach this place don’t even have the courage to try to pick them, and they choose to make a concerted effort and continue to climb upwards. A few monks who dare to try will also face a failure, and some people can’t resist the attack of monsters and die.
Liu Bo was full of energy and didn't need to rest at all. After arriving at the third platform, he chose one side to go deeper and prepared to search for the nine-petaled jasper flowers here.
He had just gone deeper for hundreds of meters, but unexpectedly found several acquaintances. However, thinking of the true strength of these three people, it was natural to be able to pick nine-petaled jasper flowers here. These three people are Miao Jingao, the prince of the Great Jin Kingdom, Shu Xuan, the scattered cultivator of the Linghu period, and the last one is the genius cultivator of the fifth and sixth level that Liu Bo met on the island in the heart of the lake.
Although these three people climbed the stone steps a little later than Liu Bo, they did not delay time at the first two platforms, so instead came to Liu Bo.
Judging from the actions of these three people, they were very clear about the specific situation of climbing Shuiyue Mountain. They did not waste any time in front, and they all went straight to the third platform that suits them the most suitable for them to pick elixirs.
Liu Bo's arrival also attracted the attention of the three of them, and they all secretly paid attention to Liu Bo's every move.
