Chapter 754: Long-cherished Dream
Hearing Su Yizhi’s emotional tone, Ling Chuxi could understand his complicated feelings. Rebuilding the Golden Pill Sect was his long-cherished dream, and today they were finally taking the first step towards it. How could he not be excited?
The group looked ahead and saw a narrow path that only a single carriage could pass through. Behind the path was a vast mountain range, so vague and distant it seemed unreal.
“This is the former site of the Golden Pill Sect. This is the only road that leads to the Golden Pill Sect. At the end of this road is a cliff, and the huge valley underneath the cliff is the true Golden Pill Sect,” Su Yizhi explained emotionally, his eyes bright with anticipation. “The Golden Pill Sect is probably the most beautiful place in this whole realm.”
‘The most beautiful place?’ Ling Chuxi raised a brow doubtfully. Su Yizhi was surely being biased here, right?
“Let’s go!” Su Yizhi urged the group to move forward. “There is a mechanism in the cliff up ahead that only members of the Golden Pill Sect know how to operate. We need to take a cable car down to the sect.”
‘Cable car?’ Ling Chuxi could imagine the rough layout. She remembered that before she had transmigrated over, there had been a TV series called Black Wood Cliff where the lands were mysterious and unique. She never would have thought that the Golden Pill Sect’s entrance was also designed like this.
“So many years have passed, will the cable car still be usable?” Ling Chuxi asked curiously. In this world, the main material used for building was wood. The Golden Pill Sect had already been destroyed many years ago, so wouldn’t the cable car be destroyed too?
“Of course it’s usable,” Su Yizhi nodded and said confidently. “Don’t think that these cable cars are made of wood. The cable car and hanging bridges were all made using special materials, and most of them were cast with Black Iron. A few thousand years is not a problem. Even if some parts are made of wood, they’re small and won’t affect its usage. When the time comes, we can just repair them if needed.”
“They’re that amazing?” Li Shaoqiu eyes were wide in surprise. “How much money was spent to build the Golden Pill Sect back then?”
“Money is secondary, and is something the Golden Pill Sect won’t ever run out of. The main thing is the time spent. They say that in order to repair these buildings, they used a lot of money to hire a few hundred craftsmen, and it took a hundred years to complete everything.” When Su Yizhi spoke, there was pride in his voice. “Wait until you enter and see it, then you will understand.”
When they heard ‘cable car’, Li Shaoqiu and the rest instinctively recalled the restaurant in the capital that also had a cable car. They said that kind of workmanship had long been lost, but the cable car in the restaurant was three hundred years old and it was still sturdy. Was the Golden Pill Sect’s cable car similar?
When Ling Chuxi saw the cable car at the entrance of the Golden Pill Sect, she realized that the Black Wood Cliff’s cable car was truly very different. The Black Wood Cliff’s cable car could only fit a couple of people, but the the Golden Pill Sect’s cable car was massive. The mechanism was similar to the lifts in her previous life, but were even more magnificent. The interior of the cable car was huge, and could even fit quite a few carriages in it. The only thing was that the cable car was covered in dust, implying that no one had entered this place for a very long time.
They stood by the cable car and looked ahead at the distant mountain range. If one looked down, they couldn’t see the bottom! Beneath the cliff was a thin layer of mist, and Ling Chuxi could not see where the mechanism of cable car was at all.
“Wait here for a while—” Su Yizhi spoke but was interrupted by Ling Chuxi.
