Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Gu You unleashed his two-word battle armor, accelerated sharply, and soared straight into the sky, intending to survey the surrounding terrain.

Endless snow-capped mountains, nothing can be seen...

Gu You retrieved his two-word battle armor. He remembered Leng Yaozhu's instructions: upon arriving here, the first thing to do was to act like an ordinary person. Everyone who came to join the army had to walk this path, even flying soul masters—it was the rule. They couldn't even use their martial souls, or they would be eliminated.

He then hiked into the snow-capped mountain area. When Gu You climbed the first peak, he began to understand why there were such regulations for the place he was going to.

Climbing snow-capped mountains is an absolute test of willpower. Even for Soul Masters with abundant Soul Power, progress is extremely difficult without using their Martial Soul.

The snow on the mountain was very thick, making it difficult to walk. Moreover, the terrain was steep, the temperature was getting lower and lower, and the air was thin at high altitude.

Even with his physical abilities, his breathing became rapid after climbing a snow-capped mountain. For an ordinary person, this would be impossible without any modern equipment.

After a slight adjustment, Gu You leaped into the air and jumped directly towards the other side of the snow-capped peak.

The thick snow provided the perfect cushion, and his body slid down rapidly, hurtling along the steep side of the snow-covered mountain, hurtling straight down.

Gu You stretched out his body to maximize his contact area with the snow to avoid sinking into the thick snow. He accelerated, with snow dust whistling past on both sides. He unleashed his spiritual power, sensing the potentially dangerous areas below and constantly adjusting his direction to avoid them.

It took more than an hour to climb up the mountain, but only a few minutes to descend. Just as he was about to reach the bottom, Gu You lifted his legs and, using the momentum, continued to glide forward, rushing all the way to the foot of a mountain on the opposite side. He even surged upwards for dozens of meters before his body finally stabilized.

The snow on the mountain was very thick. Gu You had learned the relevant knowledge. Under such circumstances, one should try to make as little noise as possible, otherwise it would be very easy to cause an avalanche.

If you're not allowed to use your Martial Soul, then using an external Soul Bone shouldn't be a problem, right?

Gu You patted his head; he really was a smart idiot.

The Purple Emperor's Terror Claw, imbued with an external soul bone, firmly gripped the mountain wall and began its ascent.

Not all mountains are so steep. After passing a steep section, the terrain became gentler, and he stood up and continued climbing. In this way, he traversed one mountain peak after another.

At this moment, he had completely entered this sea of ​​snow-capped mountains, which resembled a vast mountain range.

The mountains ahead grew ever higher and the terrain ever more treacherous. Gu You sat atop one of the peaks, finally feeling a touch of weariness.

It had been a whole day, and he himself had no idea how many peaks he had climbed, but now he could no longer see the way in.

What exactly is my goal?

As darkness fell, their destination remained elusive. Although Gu You's physical abilities allowed him to continue, the temperature on the snow-capped mountains at night was unbearably low. He sensed that the surrounding temperature was likely below minus fifty degrees Celsius, causing his body to rapidly deplete its heat reserves.

Even if you are very confident, you should always leave yourself some room for maneuver; otherwise, you'll be in trouble if something goes wrong.

As for how to rest, that's not a problem for Gu You.

He dug a snow cave directly into the mountainside, then curled up inside, took out his bedding from his storage ring, and used it to keep out the surrounding ice and snow. It wasn't exactly comfortable, but at least he was protected from the biting cold wind outside, so it was still relatively comfortable.

This was a wonderful experience. I pushed the blankets aside to make the surrounding snow more compact.

After a night of meditation, when Gu You woke up again, he was full of energy once more.

He separated his hands and crawled out of the snow cave again. The cold wind blew against his body, making him shiver and instantly sober up.

He stretched his body, accelerating the circulation of his internal energy and soul rings. Instantly, bursts of scorching energy emanated from his body, and a layer of white mist even appeared around him. The mist was pervasive, and his aura was like fire.

Gu You took a few deep breaths, then suddenly leaped up and continued on his way.

The mountain peaks ahead became increasingly steep, with a near 90-degree angle.

A look of confusion crossed Gu You's eyes. Where exactly was he looking? Where was that legion?

"I should have asked the teacher for a map," Gu You sighed.

The Purple Emperor Terror Claw is so useful!

The first section of the steep ice wall was over a thousand meters long, but Gu You reached the summit in just a quarter of an hour.

Gu You shook his slightly sore arms and moved his fingers, which were red from the cold. After a full cycle of blood and energy circulation, he naturally recovered.

As he continued upwards along the snow-capped peaks, the terrain became gentler, something he hadn't seen before. Gu You trudged on, his steps uneven, and after climbing over another hill, he was astonished to find that on the other side of the hill, the terrain no longer descended, but rather a vast expanse of land perched atop the mountain, resembling a plain. More precisely, it was a snowfield.

On that snow-covered plain, a cluster of barracks stood, seemingly quite large in scale. There were sentry posts around, but no watchtowers. Because they were covered in snow, it was impossible to even tell what materials the buildings were made of.

However, this barracks, which covers an area of ​​at least one square kilometer, is a real place!

Arrived!

Gu You glided swiftly down the mountain, an indescribable feeling welling up inside him. From an unknown path to the path of ultimate success, he had gambled correctly and succeeded.

He hadn't run more than a few steps when suddenly, a warning signal flashed through his mind, and he abruptly stopped. Less than twenty meters ahead of him, four figures suddenly emerged from the snow without warning, four clearly extraordinary soul-guided beams pointed at his body.

There were four people dressed in heavy white clothes, with four guns pointed steadily at him.

Gu You immediately raised his hands, "Don't misunderstand, I'm here to report for military service."

Of the four soldiers in white, one put away his gun, while the other three continued to point their guns at him.

The man approached Gu You without saying a word, first patting him all over with both hands. After finding no weapon, he opened the helmet he was wearing.

"Nice physique! Letter of recommendation."

Gu You hurriedly took out the letter of recommendation Leng Yaozhu had given him from his storage ring... (End of Chapter)
