Capítulo 208: First Mountain [2]

The trek up the mountain turned out to be a much more arduous task than what either of them had expected. 

Even if they weren't peak existences, they still had a great deal of strength, and their resistance was something they prided themselves on. This went especially for Ruyue, who had a natural resistance to any and all yin-natured elements.

However, the mountain seemed to ignore any sort of resistance as it pummeled them with its natural forces. Biting cold seeped into their bones and forced them to revolve their mana in order to resist it, fierce blizzards wrapped around the entire mountain seemingly without end, not giving them a moment of respite.

Until this point, they had yet to run into any beasts, but their fight against the environment was fiercer than any true battle they could have been fighting.

"How far up the mountain have we come?" Ruyue yelled. It was difficult to hear each other's voices even when they were standing so close.
