Chapter 58: The Road to Heaven
Although he didn't know what the starry sky in this world looked like, Shi Feizhe saw the stars moving at night and it was not static.
Plus, being at the top of the mountain, the sky feels like a dome.
The earth beneath his feet should also be a planet.
So... these Taoists really want to fly into space, aren't they afraid of dying from lack of oxygen?
"Well...if I'm not mistaken, the higher you fly, the thinner the air becomes, the lower the temperature becomes, and it becomes more difficult to breathe?" Shi Feizhe did not answer Li Qingshan's question, but asked instead.
"Oh?" Li Qingshan's eyes lit up and he asked, "Do you also study celestial ascension?"
"I know a little bit!" Shi Feizhe nodded when he heard Li Qingshan's name change.
If they were in a universe similar to Earth, the entire world's understanding of space would certainly not be as much as his.
"That's right! The higher you fly, the closer you will reach the cold belt. It is extremely cold there and breathing is difficult. Only masters in the realm of true person can survive." Li Qingshan said again.
"If we fly higher, it will get hot again?" Shi Feizhe asked again.
"Fellow Daoist, you are indeed knowledgeable!" Li Qingshan clapped his hands in praise.
That's the fucking stratosphere!
Hot on top and cold on the bottom!
My goodness, the stratosphere is 10,000 to 50,000 meters above the ground. You guys are really courting death!
I never thought that in this martial world, where everyone is just fighting for petty gains and getting their brains ripped out, there are actually sects that are only interested in flying into the sky and into space!
In the eyes of ordinary people in the world, the Taoist priests who ascend to heaven are probably crazy!
The world of Jianghu is so unexpected!
"Hmm... you guys wouldn't be so unprotected as to let a True Person Realm expert fly up to you, right?" Shi Feizhe continued.
"I don't know what your flying ball is, but I imagine it's a big ball that can carry people into the sky!"
"If you do this, there will probably be problems."
"Hmm?" Li Qingshan frowned and said, "What's the problem?"
"The atmosphere has many layers!"
At this moment, Shi Feizhe briefly explained the concepts of the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and exosphere in the atmosphere, and added:
"I read this in a book. It may not be correct. It's for reference only!"
Li Qingshan listened patiently to Shi Feizhe's description. It was only about the troposphere and stratosphere, so the records within the sect were roughly the same. He believed a little more about the intermediate and outer layers.
When he heard Shi Feizhe say that the atmosphere was 1 million meters high, they had only flown less than one-tenth of it. He couldn't help but sigh at how high the sky was!
"I see! I see! I need to report this to Master after I return and verify this!"
Li Qingshan was overwhelmed with emotion when he heard this. He felt that a corner of the secret of the sky had been revealed to him. He urgently needed to go back to discuss and verify it with his master.
"I really need to verify this. If I hadn't met Brother Li, I would have thought all this was just nonsense! Talking about this with Brother Li tonight, I think it's fate!"
Shi Feizhe also wants to know whether this world is really similar to Earth!
"It's indeed fate!" said Li Qingshan.
"That's why I shamelessly asked Brother Li for this fox demon. It's not that I'm obsessed with fox demons, but I think Brother Li's master's flying ball will most likely fail. One more fox demon or one less fox demon will not make any difference!" Shi Feizhe said.
But he thought so. He didn't even have a flying machine, and he wanted to fly into the sky?
Even if a martial arts master can perform miracles with great strength and can send bricks flying, there is nothing like this!
"How can a mere fox demon compare to what you said? I don't know your full name, so we can meet in the future!" Li Qingshan then remembered that he didn't know Shi Feizhe's real name.
"Shi Feizhe!"
"Old Demon Shi?" Li Qingshan was startled. With a "clang" sound, a shining long sword flew out from the wooden box behind him and landed in front of Li Qingshan.
"It's Shi Fei's house! You heard it wrong!" Shi Feizhe said with his eyelids twitching when he saw the cold and clear sword light.
This guy seems to be quite strong. He has more than just Qi Hai cultivation. Could it be Zhou Tian?
"Dead Fat House? What a strange name!" Li Qingshan picked up the sword in front of him and inserted it into the wooden box behind him with his backhand.
"It's Shi Feizhai, not the fat guy!" Shi Feizhe's face turned black. This guy can't tell the difference between flat and curled tongue.
"Friend Shi, see you in the martial arts world!" Li Qingshan bowed, and then his figure disappeared into the dark forest like the wind.
He was really anxious and wanted to rush back to the mountain gate immediately.
After he left, Shi Feizhe looked at the square-faced fox who had woken up and said, "Stop pretending, everyone's gone!"
"Oh, oh, oh, I'm really scared of the Taoist priests on the way to heaven!" The square-faced fox whimpered.
"Speak nicely!" Shi Feizhe said with a dark face.
If a white fox or a red fox with a golden color was crying there, he certainly wouldn't mind it.
But such a square-faced, yellow-skinned, frizzy-haired fox made him feel so out of place.
"I'm just talking normally! Oh, oh, oh~" the square-faced fox said, "You actually tricked the Taoist priest of the Heavenly Dao into being stunned. You're really cunning!"
In the fox's cognition, "cunning" is a word of praise.
"What's cunning? That's wisdom! Besides, I think people on the Heavenly Dao are pretty good!" Shi Feizhe said:
"They speak politely and pleasantly, their logic is rigorous, they have great ambitions, and they are proactive. I never thought there would be such a sect in the martial arts world!"
Shi Feizhe really felt so. Compared with the Riyue Tonghui Sect he had seen before, which was only good at internal strife, Dengtian Dao was simply a famous and upright sect with a strong scientific research spirit.
"Oh my god~ That's all from your perspective. In our demon world, there's a terrifying legend about the path to heaven." The square-faced fox was terrified and whispered:
"The Taoist priests of the Heavenly Dao will kill all the demons worth killing, and use their corpses to make terrible magical weapons!"
"Those Taoists are cold and heartless. Even if I transform into the most beautiful person, I can't move their hearts."
"Even if we offer Ganoderma Lucidum, Immortal Deer, gold, silver and treasures, we can't stop them!"
"Everywhere they go, there's killing and destruction! It's horrible... so horrible!"
"...So terrifying?" Shi Feizhe asked, "Can't your demon tribe defeat them?"
"Ohhh~ We can beat them, so what are we afraid of?" the square-faced fox said in a whimpering voice.
That makes sense. All fear stems from insufficient firepower! If we had enough firepower, we would dare to bring down the evil god!
"Hmph..." Shi Feizhe drew out his rusty sword and struck the square-faced fox on the head, saying, "Just now, you, fox demon, were trying to deflect the blame! Now I'm going to save your life!"
"Tell me! How are you going to repay me?"
The square-faced fox thought for a moment and said, "Oh, oh, oh, I'm still a little fox. If I don't let you pout, it will be a quarrel!"
Shi Feizhe's face darkened and he angrily said, "I'm not a perverted Fu Rui control freak, who would be a fox!"
"Then other families won't be able to do it either!" said the square-faced fox, lying on the ground with his four paws facing the sky and his belly exposed.
"Besides changing into a human, can you change into anything else?"
"Hey? Your quirk is quite unique!"
Guess what the fox becomes!
