Chapter 15 - Rescue
Lei Yang realized that the spiritual qi in the entire valley, which was dense yesterday, was actually as clean as if it had been licked by a dog. Although he had already noticed something strange when he was trying to release his spiritual sense, he did not notice anything strange at the time, and only now did he realise that there was not a single trace of spiritual qi in the entire valley."Could it be..." This thought had just flashed across his mind but Lei Yang himself was already frightened. If I were to say that all the spirit energy in the entire valley was absorbed by me, and that my cultivation had just broken through the fifth level and stabilized at the early fifth level, then I would need an even larger amount of spirit energy to break through the sixth level in the future. Thinking about this, Lei Yang"s entire body trembled, and he couldn"t help but shiver.
"If that"s the case, then this is too sad. Where can I find such a huge amount of spirit energy? What kind of monster is this sea of stars? It"s simply a bottomless pit to absorb spirit energy!"
If I can"t find the huge amount of Spiritual Qi and just rely on the external world to absorb the normal Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, how long will it take for me to break through to the sixth level? " The excitement of Lei"s breakthrough was completely drowned in depression, but at least he didn"t need to be demoted to a medicine slave. This made his heart feel a little better.
Unknowingly, the rising sun had already illuminated the land. It was another bright sunny day. Mist rose from the valley as the sun shone onto the forest, causing the place to appear even more mysterious. Lei Yang lifted his head to look at the warm winter sun, and his mood immediately became a lot more relaxed.
He came to the stream and slowly took off his clothes. He walked into the cold and clear stream water and washed the stains off his body. He took a sip of the stream water.
He tidied up his clothes, looked at his closed door cultivation abode, and faintly smiled. Then, his figure flashed as he rushed towards the entrance of the valley …Just as Lei Yang was about to step out of the valley entrance, he suddenly heard a soft cry for help. It sounded very sudden in the depths of the desolate forest, and caused Lei Yang to feel a chill in his heart.
He quickly spread out his Spiritual Awareness, but there was no movement within a radius of thirty meters. The sound seemed to have come from a deeper part of the forest.
The sounds seemed to drift in the mountain wind, intermittent and erratic, and it was hard to tell which direction the sound came from. Lei Yang focused on listening for a while before deciding to follow the intermittent sounds to search for it.
Lei Yang searched for the sound to come from the outside of the valley, and in the end, practically circled around the outside of the valley as he walked to the other side, and continued forward for a long time before arriving at the top of a cliff.
This cliff continued to extend into the depths of the mountain range. It was as if one couldn"t see the end of this cliff. Moreover, the surrounding trees were extremely lush, as if they were filled with unknown dangers. Yet that voice had actually come from deep within the cliff. Since he had already walked all the way there, Lei Yang could only muster up the courage and continue walking deeper into the cliff.
Below the cliff was a dense forest. Although the cliff was only a few hundred feet high, the wall was like a knife cutting through an axe. It was almost perpendicular to the ground below the cliff and appeared exceptionally steep.
Lei Yang walked forward for the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, and felt the voice become clearer and clearer in his ears. After walking forward another thirty meters, he suddenly saw quite a few pieces of white colored clothes lying on the ground.
"Save me …"
Just as Lei Yang was about to inspect the fragments of the clothes on the ground, another cry for help sounded. This time, he could clearly hear that the cry had come from underneath the cliff.
He walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down. There was a woman in white clothes hanging on the wall ten zhang from the top of the cliff.It was a cypress that had grown horizontally from a small crack in the cliff wall. Apart from this, the surrounding rock walls were completely bare, making it extremely eye-catching.
The woman"s hair was in a mess and her face couldn"t be seen clearly. She was mumbling as if she was in a semi-conscious state and was extremely weak. The cries for help came from her mouth in an intermittent manner. At this moment, her ten fingers were tightly clenched. She was completely relying on her instinct of survival to firmly grasp onto the cypress, which was only as thick as an infant"s arm.
Although the cedar was very tough, it was not too thick. At this moment, it seemed to have reached the limit of what it could bear. Its downward bend was extremely exaggerated. A gust of wind blew past, causing the extremely curved cedar to sway even more violently, as if it could break apart at any time. It then followed the white-clothed woman down the cliff.
Although Lei Yang"s cultivation had already broken through the fifth level of Qi, he was still far from being able to fly, and there was nowhere for him to borrow energy from. Seeing that the girl was in danger of falling down the cliff at any time, Lei Yang immediately became anxious.
"What should I do? What should I do? Saving a life is better than creating a seven-layered paG.o.da. If I want to save her, how should I save her?" In that moment of danger, Lei Yang tensed up, and his palms began to sweat.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. He turned around and ran back into the forest. After a long while, he returned with a large circle of vines in his hand.
Lei Yang tied one end of the vine to a thick tree trunk on the cliff, and holding the other end, he ran to the edge of the cliff and shouted to the lady on the cliff: "Hey, hold on on to this, I"ll rescue you up."
Looking up, she saw that Lei Yang had thrown down the vine, and was trying his best to free one hand to grab at it. However, just as she let go, she suddenly lost her balance, and her body slipped.
The hand that was hanging on the cypress seemed to be unable to bear the weight of the body and was about to collapse. The situation was very critical, so the cypress started to sway even more.
Lei Yang frowned, he did not have time to think, as he grabbed onto the vines and descended the cliff. He, who was already at the early fifth level, was as nimble as an ape. Within a few breaths" time, he had arrived beside the woman.He quickly tied the unconscious woman to his back and climbed up the cliff with all his might. But just as he was three meters away from the top of the cliff, a low growl came from the top of the cliff that had always been very calm. Lei Yang suddenly stopped, as a thick sense of danger appeared in his heart in an instant.
Lei Yang suddenly spread out his Spiritual Awareness, and saw that fifteen meters above the cliff, there was an additional enormous monster.Its enormous body looked like a huge boulder, and its large eyes firmly locked onto the cliff where Lei Yang was standing with its pair of large and fierce teeth setting off a cold and gloomy cold light!
"Blazing Demon Bear!" It was actually a demon beast. This was going to be troublesome! This is the edge of the Dragon Mountain Range, how could there be a demon beast here? " Although Lei Yang had long since known that there were many demon beasts in the central region of the Dragon Mountain Range and that some of them were even exceptionally strong, he had never heard of any demon beasts appearing in the mountain ranges at the edges of the mountain ranges.Right at this moment, it had just locked onto Lei Yang"s location, and was directly approaching him step by step. It was extremely heavy, and its entire body was filled with an explosive feeling. As it walked over, the ground at the top of the cliff began to tremble.
"Not good, if I let it get closer, then I would be in a pa.s.sive position." Lei Yang had originally planned to hide here and only climb to the top of the cliff after it left, but obviously, this was no longer possible.
In a moment of crisis, Lei Yang did not even have time to think as the spirit energy in his aura sea instantly burst forth and gathered onto his arms. Under the dual support of the power of his fleshly body, he immediately pulled on the rattan in his hands with all his might and at the same time, fiercely stomped on the cliff wall with his toes.
The huge force actually caused the woman on his back to instantly soar into the sky, as if he was pulling onions out of dry land. His entire body shot up into the sky, only stopping when he was two zhang away from the top of the cliff.
At the same time, he pulled on the rattan in his hand, borrowing the force to charge forward a second time. He landed about two meters away from the edge of the cliff, almost colliding with the incoming Fire Demon Bear."Special code, what kind of luck is this!" Lei Yang"s face immediately turned green, he felt weak at the bottom of his heart, but he did not dare stop moving, and quickly moved to the side, avoiding the incoming blazing bear, heading towards a big tree on the right side.
Lei Yang only heard the sounds of cracking from the trees behind him. The sounds were extremely terrifying. He didn"t need to think to know that it was the Fire Demon Bear that was chasing after him.
However, he didn"t have any time to turn back. He immediately burst out with his fastest speed, sprinting to the big tree, and directly climbing up. He placed the woman on his back onto the huge tree trunk, then slightly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the situation behind him.
When he saw it, his eyes filled with astonishment. The small trees behind him had already been completely destroyed by the demonic bear"s rampage. It was evident how strong this fellow"s body was.
Just as Lei Yang placed the lady on his back onto the tree trunk, the huge Fire Demon Bear had already caught up to the big tree and was about to flip it over.
Lei Yang no longer cared about the fear in his heart. He absolutely could not allow it to flip over the tree, otherwise the woman he had just saved would be in danger. There was no time to think, Lei Yang immediately jumped down the tree trunk and fiercely kicked the face of the Fire Demon Bear.The blazing demon bear had obviously not expected that a small human would actually dare to take the initiative to attack it, adding on to its current focus, it seemed to have a deep grudge with the girl and vowed to tear her apart. Caught off guard, it was actually kicked by Lei Yang"s powerful kick.
Blood trickled out of the bear"s nose as it cried out in pain. Its huge body was also forced to retreat a few steps after being heavily kicked by Lei Yang before it managed to stabilize itself.
It lowered its head and looked at Lei Yang, as though it was enraged, its eyes revealed a sinister look, and its savage nature was immediately exposed.Lei Yang"s attack succeeded, but he did not dare relax even a little. He rolled on the ground like a donkey, fiercely stomped his feet on the ground, and immediately retreated fifteen meters away. The Six Corporeal Fist stance was forcefully pulled apart, and for a moment, he was actually in a confrontation with this gigantic Fire Demon Bear.
