Mortals cultivate immortality, I have a Chaos Tower

The wind howled, the thunder roared, and the majesty of Storm Mountain was overwhelming. It was like a sleeping ancient beast, hidden between the mountains covered with rolling dark clouds. The storms never dissipated, bringing a mysterious sense of oppression. Between heaven and earth, the wind howled, like countless undead screaming and rushing from all directions, with a faint cold murderous aura.

Standing at the foot of Storm Mountain, Lin Fan looked towards the top of the mountain quietly. The dark clouds rolled across the sky, as if a huge black curtain covered the sky and earth. From time to time, lightning flashed through the clouds like a white snake, splitting the sky. The occasional thunder from the top of the mountain was deafening and frightening.

"We're finally here." Lin Fan sighed softly, with a hint of emotion in his tone. He turned his head and glanced at Jin Buke, Jiang Shuiling, and Zhong Ling'er. Everyone looked solemn. Obviously, the might of Storm Mountain had already made them feel daunted.

Storm Mountain, as the third pass to the Golden Core Stage, has long been famous. According to legend, this mountain guards the might of heaven, and the triple blockade has blocked the footsteps of countless powerful people. Many cultivators wanted to explore the secrets of the Golden Core Stage here, but they all died in the thunderstorm. Only those who can truly withstand the test of the might of heaven in the mountain can glimpse the mystery of the Golden Core and get a chance to break through.

Lin Fan took a deep breath, and a look of determination gradually appeared between his brows. They had already gone through two life-and-death tests and reached the foot of Storm Mountain. Now, no matter how many dangers lay ahead, they had to get through them.

"The aura here is stronger than anywhere else before." Jin Buke stood beside Lin Fan and stroked the hilt of his sword. The sword trembled slightly in the strong wind, as if it felt the strong thunder power on the top of the mountain. His voice was low, with a hint of vigilance in his tone: "The power on Storm Mountain is not something we can easily resist."

Jiang Shuiling frowned at this moment, and reached out to gently touch the spiritual fluctuations in the air, with a trace of worry in her eyes. She murmured: "The thunder and lightning here seem to contain some kind of ancient will... I can feel that power is examining us, and anyone who gets close will be judged by thunder. If we lose our concentration in such an environment, I'm afraid..."

"We can't retreat." Zhong Ling'er interrupted her, biting her lower lip and holding the staff tightly with both hands. Her eyes were full of determination: "No matter what, we have come to this point. No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, we must get through it."

Although her voice was trembling, her determination was firm. Standing at the foot of Storm Mountain, her petite figure seemed out of place in this vast world, but her determined eyes made it impossible to ignore her inner strength.

Lin Fan looked at her and smiled, "Yes, we have come this far. Backing off is not an option."

The four of them looked at each other, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding in their hearts. They had fought side by side for a long time and had already established a deep trust from previous battles.

"It is said that this Storm Mountain guards the secrets of the Golden Core Stage. Only those who can withstand the baptism of the Heavenly Might here have the opportunity to comprehend the true meaning of the Golden Core." Lin Fan's eyes were steady, and his voice was low and firm. "We cannot retreat. Whether there is life or death ahead, we must go all out."

After the words fell, the four people's eyes were once again focused on the towering peak in front of them. The lightning on the top of the mountain continued to flicker, as if the anger of the world was poured into it at this moment. Faintly, a low roar could be heard in the wind, like the roar of an ancient beast.

"It is said that there are three blockades in Storm Mountain - Wind Blade Formation, Lightning Prison and Soul Storm." Lin Fan looked around and said slowly, "These three levels cannot be passed by strength alone. We must work together to overcome them."

Jin Buke sneered and clenched the long sword in his hand. The sword tip made a slight sound in the strong wind: "No matter what formation it is, don't think it can stop us."

Zhong Ling'er's nervous expression seemed to ease a little as he spoke, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Jin Buke is right, we have passed the many tests of the first two levels, and this third level will be no exception."

"However, this time may be more dangerous than the previous level." Jiang Shuiling frowned slightly and looked up at the top of the mountain. The clouds were rolling and the wind and thunder were endless. Her voice was low and solemn. "This Storm Mountain will not only test our physical strength, but also our will and determination. If we are not careful, we will fall into an irretrievable situation."

Jiang Shuiling's reminder made everyone's heart sink slightly. Indeed, although the previous trials were difficult, most of them were overcome by relying on strong strength, accurate judgment and tacit cooperation. And in the legend of Storm Mountain, this mountain not only defeated the monks with wind blades and thunder, but also made many strong men fail through the test of soul and will.

"Miss Jiang is right." Lin Fan nodded, took a deep breath, and his eyes were solemn. "The power of wind and thunder in Storm Mountain is extraordinary. We must be extra careful with every step. Any mistake may lead to the annihilation of the entire army."

Zhong Ling'er heard this, although she was nervous, she still cheered up: "No matter what, we have no way out."

"Let's go!" Jin Buke took the first step forward. The long sword behind him made a low sword sound, and his eyes burned with an inextinguishable fighting spirit.

Lin Fan waved his hand, and the Chaos Tower emerged from his palm. The tower emitted a soft golden light, covering the four people. He said in a deep voice: "Everyone, come closer. The Chaos Tower can help us resist some of the external impact."

Jiang Shuiling nodded slightly, Zhong Ling'er stood in the middle of the team, Jin Buke walked in the front, and the four of them adjusted their mentality, concentrated and calmed down, and slowly took the first step towards the depths of Storm Mountain.
