Chapter 589

These people have different goals; they hope to reach the pinnacle of Professionals and become god-level powerhouses.

Listening to their words, Lin Moyu thought about himself, and a smile couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth.

In less than two years, he had already reached Level 60.

He had accomplished what others took over a decade to do.

And his sister was even more terrifying; he didn't know what level she was at now.

"I wonder where my sister has gone."

"Why did Senior Emperor Di make my sister cultivate so urgently? It even feels a bit like forcing growth by pulling on the seedlings."

Although Lin Mohan's leveling speed was very fast, Lin Moyu had a feeling that it seemed a bit too rushed.

Emperor Di being so anxious suggested that something was about to happen.

This feeling wasn't good, but Lin Moyu couldn't put his finger on why.

Furthermore, he didn't know where Lin Mohan had gone now, and he couldn't find her even if he wanted to.

As for asking Emperor Di, he didn't have the qualifications to do so.

The wind and snow grew heavier, and it seemed as if a mysterious force in the air was acting upon his body, causing the pressure to increase exponentially.

Lin Moyu couldn't help but sink slightly. This was the pressure from the Kunlun Mountains.

Soft groans sounded continuously in his ears; the people traveling with him also felt this sudden pressure.

Someone said, "This is the first test of the Kunlun Mountains for outsiders. If you can't even withstand this bit of pressure, you aren't qualified to head to the mountainside."

"It is said that this is to weed out those guys who were carried through the initial Dungeon."

"Exactly, people who cheat can't get up here at all."

This pressure would act on everyone.

If one was truly weak and relied on others to pass the initial Dungeon, they would reveal their true colors under this pressure.

Lin Moyu smiled slightly; he knew that wasn't the case at all.

He had read a document in the imperial secret library and knew why such pressure appeared in the Kunlun Mountains.

The entire Kunlun Mountains was a natural formation, possessing immense pressure.

After exceeding a thousand meters in altitude, this pressure would descend and land on everyone.

And the higher one went, the stronger the pressure became.

The mid-tier Kunlun Divine Palace Dungeon was located on the mountainside, at an altitude of over 5,000 meters. The pressure there was quite astonishing.

It made those who had passed the trials by being carried by others have nowhere to hide.

Under that kind of pressure, those who were weak, let alone standing, would probably just fall unconscious directly.

Lin Moyu could clearly feel that the pressure formed by this natural formation acted directly on the soul.

Because his soul was too powerful, this pressure felt like a gentle breeze against his face.

For others, it was not the same story.

He could hear heavy breathing amidst the wind and snow; many people found it harder and slower to walk as they went on.

Gradually, some people fell behind. Their presence stopped moving forward, unable to continue…

That Professional who had only barely passed the initial Dungeon at Level 60 earlier was just like that. They were unable to continue after walking just 2,000 meters.

There were many people like this. Just passing the trial of the initial Dungeon didn't guarantee one could reach the mountainside.

The existence of the natural formation performed a second screening on these people. When they finally reached the Dungeon entrance, there would be a third screening: forming a team.

The difficulty of the mid-tier Dungeon was much higher than the initial Dungeon; normally, a full party of 24 people was needed to have a chance at clearing it.

If there was no fixed team, solo players found it hard to find a suitable group. Even if they found a team, nine times out of ten, they wouldn't be able to clear it.

Normally, teams capable of clearing the mid-tier Kunlun Divine Palace were fixed teams, organized and disciplined. They were not only strong individually, but also had good equipment and good coordination.

Although Lin Moyu hadn't entered the Dungeon, he roughly knew that the mid-tier Dungeon was very difficult. It wasn't as easy to pass as the initial Dungeon.

Likewise, the experience in the mid-tier Dungeon was very high, suitable for leveling. Moreover, the mid-tier Dungeon would drop top-tier Platinum-grade equipment.

In a situation where Legendary-grade equipment was unobtainable and Quasi-Legendary-grade equipment was scarce, top-tier Platinum-grade equipment was the best gear for most Professionals.

Like the several major guilds within the empire, they all had teams stationed here year-round, repeatedly farming the Dungeon.

They weren't as extravagant as Lin Moyu, willing to use a cooldown amulet. Let alone high-level ones, they were reluctant to use even mid-level ones.

They could only wait for the Dungeon's cooldown time to end. The cooldown time for the Kunlun Divine Palace Dungeon was 24 hours, and it could be farmed once a day.

However, for them, it was enough; the 24-hour period was just right for them to rest and discuss tactics. After all, clearing the Dungeon once took over ten hours, and the combat was intense and exhausting.

They couldn't do continuous Dungeon runs like Lin Moyu. The pressure from the soul became stronger and stronger, and more and more people fell behind.

5.8 But the wind and snow had died down at some point. Especially after exceeding 4,000 meters in altitude, the wind and snow had almost stopped.

The scenery in the mountains could also be clearly seen in his line of sight. From here, one could see the snowscape stretching to the sky; the view was vast, with snow dancing like silver snakes, magnificent and enchanting.

Lin Moyu stopped here to admire the scenery, feeling a sense of grandeur for a moment.

"Compared to the Abyss World, the scenery of my Human World is much more beautiful." Lin Moyu couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

A sneer suddenly came from beside him, "It sounds like you've been to the Abyss."

Lin Moyu looked at the other person, a Professional in his 30s wearing an exquisite Mage robe that fluttered in the wind.

A special emblem could be seen on the cuffs; generally, those with such emblems were basically guild members. As for what guild it was, Lin Moyu didn't recognize it.

Regardless, it wasn't Jialan or the Imperial Dynasty, so it didn't matter to Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu was looking at him, and he was also looking at Lin Moyu with a trace of mockery, "What are you pretending for? Talking big, acting like you've been to the Abyss."

Lin Moyu turned his head and ignored him; he couldn't be bothered with such people.

Chapter 561: Do You Think You Are General Lin?

Lin Moyu's indifference seemed to be a provocation to him. His expression changed slightly, and just as he was about to say something, he was pulled back by his companion.

His companion shook his head at him, then dragged him away quickly.

Lin Moyu didn't pay attention to them; after admiring the scenery for a while, he got up and continued walking upward again.

That person was pulled to the side by his companion and was still unconvinced, "Zheng Guang, why did you pull me?"

Zheng Guang shook his head, "I wasn't pulling you; I was saving you."

The man obviously didn't believe it, "Saving me? What kind of joke is that?"

Zheng Guang's expression was serious, "Yuan Kai, you are at least a Level 65 Archmage; has your brain been dulled by practicing skills?"

Yuan Kai shouted angrily, "Zheng Guang, what the hell kind of nonsense are you spouting?"

Zheng Guang looked at him as if he were an idiot, "Think about it yourself. Given the other person's age, to be able to come here, how strong must his strength be?"

"Even if that young man is not as good as you now, what about in the future?"

Yuan Kai's expression changed slightly; he had to admit that Zheng Guang's words made a lot of sense. He indeed hadn't considered this point.

He had only seen the other person's young appearance and heard his bold words, so he hadn't thought too much about it for a moment.

Zheng Guang patted him, "Think it over well, and follow up when you've thought it through." Saying this, Zheng Guang continued walking upward.

Soon he saw Lin Moyu, and he walked over quickly, "Brother, my companion's words just now were a bit unpleasant; please don't take them to heart."

Lin Moyu looked at him and said nonchalantly, "It's fine." He hadn't taken this matter to heart at all.

It was such a small matter; if he didn't even have this much tolerance, then he wouldn't be Lin Moyu.

Zheng Guang changed the subject, seemingly wanting to get closer to Lin Moyu, "Brother, are you also going to the Kunlun Divine Palace?"

The Kunlun Divine Palace he referred to was naturally the mid-tier Dungeon on the mountainside. Lin Moyu just nodded slightly, which counted as an answer.

Zheng Guang said, "Brother, it's not easy to find a team alone. We are from the Shanhai Guild and have a fixed Dungeon team. Although we haven't achieved excellent results yet, bringing someone along for a run is no problem."

"If you need anything, brother, you can find me. My name is Zheng Guang, a Level 66 Archer, from the Second Squad of the Kunlun Divine Palace Raid Group of the Shanhai Guild."

Lin Moyu gave an affirmative grunt, "Okay." Zheng Guang chatted with Lin Moyu casually for a few more sentences before leaving.

Lin Moyu could tell that Zheng Guang was a smart person; he generally wouldn't make many enemies and probably had quite a few friends.

From his few words, Lin Moyu could also tell that their Shanhai Guild was not powerful. At least not as strong as the Jialan Guild. Otherwise, they wouldn't have failed to even achieve excellent results.

But they were also not too weak, otherwise they wouldn't dare say they could carry him through the Dungeon. Of course, this kind of carrying through a Dungeon required payment; it was impossible to do it for free.

In a 24-person Dungeon, every position was indispensable. Being able to free up one or two spots to bring along someone irrelevant meant that the team's combat power was already quite strong.

This behavior was very common in many Dungeons. Especially in high-level Dungeons, many teams would carry people for a fee, and the charges were quite high.

Such people who were carried were also known as "bosses"; they didn't have to do anything, just follow along to clear the Dungeon. The team earned money, and the "boss" who was carried gained experience.

Sometimes the "boss" would also purchase the equipment that dropped in the Dungeon, so the money earned would be even more. Lin Moyu couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head slightly; Zheng Guang had obviously mistaken him for a "boss".
