Chapter 2997: The Mysterious Giant Mountain

However, it was merely surprise! The young cultivator was quite confident in his strength.

Once entering the realm of Martial Emperor, he naturally possessed a royal aura. Immediately, he entered his powerful vehicle.

Upon entering, the vehicle floated up right away, evidently showing his strength was far superior to those cultivators before.

“Are you ready?” Tong Yao smiled at Ye Luo.

“Nothing to prepare for, right?” Ye Luo looked at her in surprise.

Seeing Ye Luo’s expression, Tong Yao laughed out loud.

Up close, she indeed looked beautiful, not inferior to an Emperor!

Sensing Ye Luo’s gaze, she immediately started the car and drove off into the distance.

The vehicle sped rapidly, and in an instant, it reached the mountain, with the car disappearing from sight.

“Not bad, the speed of this car is indeed fast!” Ye Luo couldn’t help but marvel.

“Want to give it a try?” Tong Yao suddenly smiled.

Honestly, Ye Luo felt slightly tempted; men always have a special feeling for cars, especially Ye Luo, who hails from a technological nation.

“Let’s switch positions then!”

With that, Ye Luo intended to move to her side.

“No need! Just stay put!” Tong Yao suddenly glared at him.

Soon, Ye Luo found a steering wheel appear before him. In fact, the current vehicles were operated by control sticks, many even connected to the human consciousness, allowing one to control the vehicle with a mere thought.

Yet Ye Luo still preferred using the old-fashioned steering wheel.

Tong Yao seemed to know this and specially created a gear for him.

Ye Luo laughed heartily and immediately took over, a familiar feeling sweeping over him. The speed of this vehicle was extraordinarily fast, rendering the scenery before him a blur, yet for Ye Luo, it was nothing significant; his eyes had been enhanced.

Instantaneously, he raced towards the mountain peak.

“This is a race! If you lose, the consequences will be severe!” Tong Yao’s eyes widened.

Ye Luo was clearly speeding, not racing! The track didn’t lead to the mountain top, in such a manner, even if the cultivator didn’t use any skills, he could surpass Ye Luo.

“Hehe, no problem, if you lose, I’ll steal you back,” Ye Luo chuckled.

At this moment, he still headed towards the mountain.

Below, the crowd began to exclaim in surprise. Although they couldn’t see Tong Yao’s car, a screen allowed them to track its movement.

“Today’s race is unusual, the previous car inexplicably stopped, while Tong Yao’s car changed direction!”

“Indeed eerie, it seems today’s race is not to be joined!”

These cultivators assumed the reason Tong Yao’s car reached the mountain top was due to the cultivator’s trickery.

In reality, the young cultivator at the back was just as puzzled! However, in this race, the commitment is valued greatly; if Tong Yao breaks her promise, she wouldn’t be spared by those rich city youth, let alone the cultivators.

Many times, rules and commitments have a greater binding effect than legal constraints.

“Ye Luo, I’m not joking! Losing the race will have serious consequences!” Tong Yao became anxious.

Nobody knows when this mountain was formed, just that it’s vast and tall!

Specifically how tall? No one would waste their time climbing it. As one approaches the peak, the mysterious force becomes stronger!

It is said that a Ultra Combat Robot of the Zhongzhou Empire once tried to ascend, but the result was that the robot was crushed to pieces by the mysterious forces!

Since then, almost no one has dared envision climbing the mountain! After all, there’s no profit to be gained from it, and the resources and money spent on a Ultra Combat Robot are beyond ordinary people’s comprehension.

Soon, Ye Luo reached the end of the road.

This was after all just a racing track, barely reaching the halfway point! Subsequently, Ye Luo descended from the mountain!

Tong Yao, though a bit anxious, also got out of the car.

At this spot, one could truly feel the majesty of the mountain!

Ye Luo gazed seriously towards the peak, surrounded by a mixture of energies, Spiritual Power, Death Qi! Demonic Qi! And the power of the Buddhist Sect!

He was somewhat surprised, what kind of mountain could gather so much power!

Logically speaking, such a mountain must hold great secrets, yet the major forces in the city were untouched by it! And the powerful beings of the Demon Realm also chose to ignore this peak! There must be hidden circumstances!

Merely the demise of a Ultra Combat Robot made everyone give up on the mountain? Such reasoning could only deceive ordinary people.

“You’re courting death!”

Suddenly, a cold voice came, the former cultivator actually parked his car on the road behind them.

Tong Yao was surprised, why did the cultivator come here too! Does he not want to win the race?

Yet, that cultivator’s gaze wasn’t on Tong Yao, but dead-set upon Ye Luo.

“You are surprisingly a cultivator! And with considerable strength, that indeed miscalculated me!” he said gloomily.

“Miscalculated? I’m afraid your miscalculation involves more than that!” Ye Luo suddenly laughed.

The young man, however, shook his head, “No matter, once on the sacred mountain, no one can leave alive! Sorry, not even you!”

He then looked at Tong Yao, but there was clearly some reluctance in his eyes.

“What… what does that mean?” Tong Yao asked in confusion.

“There wasn’t any road up here originally, no racer would come up! This road was carved out by him!” the young man said.

Tong Yao was shocked as she looked at Ye Luo. She had visited this mountain many times, playing races since young, but never reached such heights, previously she was curious, but the urgency in her heart suppressed it.

Ye Luo shook his head with a smile again, “Indeed, I carved out this road, but this is definitely not the end!”

“You really are seeking death!” the young man shouted angrily, “Seek your demise!”

Then, he suddenly struck at Ye Luo with a punch, an enormous burst of Mana erupted from his fist, a strike from a Martial Emperor was truly earth-shattering.

Tong Yao became immediately panicked, though she trained in Spiritual Power, the young man’s strike completely overturned her understanding!

After all, she always viewed powerful battles from afar, like watching a movie, seeing enough made her immune to any emotions, yet now, standing amidst the battlefield, she realized the intense peril.
