Chapter 356: Jade Knife Mantis
Chapter 356: Jade Knife Mantis
"Brother, just who is this mysterious senior that Xiaoshun has met?"
Above the high skies flown by the Escaping Light, the gang wind was piercingly cold.
By Li Muyang’s ear, the puzzled sound transmission of his foster sister Li Yuechan could be heard.
Li Muyang glanced at his sister and said, "In the wilderness, there are mysterious masters roaming. It’s not rare for a fortunate youth to stumble upon them by chance, hit it off at first sight, and then become sworn friends, despite the years between them... These classic adventures aren’t uncommon." Your next chapter is on novelhall.Côm
This world was one filled with strange encounters and opportunities.
After all, the current Cultivation World was built upon the ruins of a once flourishing age of cultivators.
One might inadvertently enter an Immortal’s secret realm just by jumping off a cliff in the deep forests.
After parting with Guan Xiaoshun, the three continued their escape, maneuvering the Escaping Light to fly across the wilderness.
But their flying speed naturally couldn’t compare with that of the Cloud Chariot Flying Boat.
Mainly because the flying speed of Li Muyang and Li Yuechan was too slow.@@@@
They flew from day to night, and from night until dawn.
When dawn’s first light appeared in the east, Li Yuechan was utterly exhausted.
The young girl descended to rest in the wilderness.
Li Muyang was also extremely tired, his Spiritual Power nearly depleted.
Aunt Su watched the exhausted appearance of the two, and sighed.
"It won’t be long before Old Dry Leaf catches up..."
Aunt Su’s expression was solemn, and her tone was unusually downcast.
She had done her utmost to protect these siblings up to this point, and this was almost her limit.
Looking at Li Yuechan in front of her, Aunt Su softly said, "Yu Chan, you should leave on your own."
"I’ll continue to flee with your brother. If I carry him, perhaps we can fly even further away."
A cultivator of the Spirit Travel Realm naturally had much deeper Mana than Li Muyang and the others.
The hesitant young girl looked at her brother, her lips moving slightly as if she wanted to say something.
But Li Muyang, who had been sitting behind her, suddenly acted, striking her on the crown of her head with a palm.
The dazed girl was shocked, instinctively widening her eyes, but before she could say anything, she collapsed straight onto the ground.
She trusted her brother too much and never expected Li Muyang to lash out so suddenly.
Supporting his unconscious foster sister, Li Muyang sighed, "This stubborn girl, if I didn’t exhaust her completely, it really wouldn’t have been easy to find an opportunity to act."
After knocking out the girl, Li Muyang pulled out a stack of thick talisman paper from his Qiankun Ring.
As Li Muyang chanted incantations, the thick paper in his hands took flight, swirling in the wilderness and stirring up a small tornado on flat ground.
As the tornado whirled, countless particles of sand and stone flew towards its center, eventually forming a two-zhang tall and burly mud figure.
To him, all it took was a strike from the Startling Swan Immortal Sword, and everything would be easily resolved.
The only trouble was cleaning up the battlefield and removing traces of the remaining Sword Qi from the Immortal Sword...
Lost in thought, Li Muyang closed his eyes.
During the boring wait, he finally had the leisure to log in to the game world and check on the game progress of the Dragon Girl Clawing at the Moon.
This simple and cute dragon girl had been set to PLAY for so many days; who knows how many Heart-eating Worms she had caught.
Li Muyang was very curious.
As he logged into the game, familiar darkness washed over him like a tide.
The feeling of his body gradually faded away, and when he became aware of his limbs again, he was no longer in a man’s body.
In the swirling fog, the voice of the Dragon Girl Clawing at the Moon was incredibly excited.
"Li Muyang! You’re back!"
The Dragon Girl was ecstatic.
Li Muyang smiled and said, "How’s your harvest, uh..."
Just as Li Muyang was about to check the number of Heart-eating Worms, he was stunned.
The gourd he carried was empty, and the number of Heart-eating Worms inside was shockingly low, almost unchanged from when he had left.
Such a discovery left Li Muyang dumbfounded.
"...You didn’t catch the Heart-eating Worms?"
So many days had passed and the number of Heart-eating Worms hadn’t increased?
What in the world was this foolish dragon girl doing!
At that moment, Li Muyang suddenly felt like a parent who comes home only to find that their child hasn’t touched their homework over winter break.
But the Dragon Girl Clawing at the Moon completely ignored Li Muyang’s astonishment and excitedly said,
"Look, look! That thing came out!"
"Li Muyang, look ahead, I’ve been chasing this thing for many days."
"I always feel like it’s familiar, as if I’ve seen it somewhere before... Do you know what this thing is?"
"There are no Heart-eating Worms on it!"
The Dragon Girl was brimming with excitement.
The fog in front of her surged continuously, revealing the form of a massive and eerie creature within.
Narrow saber-like arms, a body like jade, sinister yet strangely captivating.
The creature that emerged from the fog was...
"A Jade Saber Mantis?!"
