"The mountain is called Tiantai, towering into the clouds, with no path to ascend," the old man said.
"This?" I was taken aback.
"Even if you manage to reach Tiantai, don't think you can get close to the Heavenly God Stone," the old man warned.
"Why not?" I asked.
"The Heavenly God Stone is a sacred object of the celestial deity, guarded by a giant eagle. That eagle is enormous and incredibly powerful, capable of soaring through the skies," the old man explained.
"I can't believe such a thing exists," I said in shock.
"Therefore, I advise you not to take the risk; that place is not meant for you," the old man urged.
"This?" I fell silent in contemplation.
"Thank you for your hospitality, sir. We must take our leave now," the master said.
The three bid farewell to the old man and left the room.
They discussed among themselves and decided to find a place to stay and plan their next steps.
Soon, they found an abandoned grass hut at the foot of a mountain, cleaned it up a bit, and settled in.
That night, they sat in the grass hut and began discussing their strategy.
"It seems that obtaining the Heavenly God Stone is not going to be easy," I said.
"Yeah, we can't cross that River," Xiao Xiao remarked.
"Even if we manage to cross the River, defeating that giant eagle would be impossible," A Meng added.
"So we currently have two major challenges: crossing the river and defeating the giant eagle," I stated.
"But neither of these challenges is something we can solve," Xiao Xiao pointed out.
"Yes, from what we can see, we are completely unable to resolve them," A Meng agreed.
"What should we do then? Are we really going to give up?" I asked.
"But we've come so far; it would be a shame to give up now," Xiao Xiao lamented.
"Yes, I also feel it's a pity," A Meng concurred.
"However, if we don't give up, we might very well die here," I said.
"This?" Xiao Xiao fell silent.
"I think we should stay here for a while and see how things go," I said.
"Alright, that's all we can do for now," Xiao Xiao nodded.
"I hope we can find a solution," A Meng said.
That night, the three of us fell into deep contemplation, facing a difficult choice.
"I've made up my mind; we can't just sit here and wait," I said.
"What do you plan to do?" Xiao Xiao asked.
"We'll scout the rooftop and see if there's a way to cross the river," I replied.
"Okay, I agree," Xiao Xiao nodded.
"I'm going too," A Meng said.
After the three of us made our plans, we went to bid farewell to the elder of Dwarffoot Kingdom.
The elder was very concerned for us, providing plenty of food and water, and urged us to return if things didn't work out.
I was deeply grateful, thanked the elder, and then left the village with Xiao Xiao and A Meng, heading towards the rooftop.
Seventy miles wasn't far for the three of us; we reached it in two days.
Standing on a mountaintop, we looked ahead and saw a wide river not far away, its waters rushing fiercely with turbulent waves, appearing quite dangerous.
"This river is so wide," Xiao Xiao exclaimed in shock.
"Yeah, it's at least over a hundred meters wide," A Meng said.
"How do we cross this river?" I frowned.
He gazed at the river's surface, lost in thought.
"Let's look around; maybe we can find a boat," Xiao Xiao suggested.
"In this desolate wilderness, where would there be a boat?" A Meng replied.
"Regardless of whether there is one or not, we need to search," I insisted.
