C22 Life and death
He could only remain silent, because he really could not refute the words of the Old Monkey in the slightest. Furthermore, it was just as the Old Monkey had said, he did not cultivate for the sake of others, he cultivated for his own everything, for the sake of the puzzlement in his heart, for the sake of being able to unravel all the mysteries in the future … He was an unclear person, and there was fog all over him. And what he was doing now was walking out of this fog to find his true self!
But today, he still did not seem to truly understand his own path. Ever since the Old Monkey promised to truly help him, since the Old Monkey taught him Kowloon, profound footwork and Yuan Shu, it seemed that he had become more and more reliant on the Old Monkey. And this reliance, whenever the Old Monkey discovered it, would always be kept in the dark by Sun Yan, and he had yet to wake up!
This had nothing to do with Sun Yan's mind. This was a type of heart, and it could be said that it was the first devil that belonged to Sun Yan himself, the one who came here on his path of cultivation. Although this devil in his heart didn't seem to be too serious, the Old Monkey was clear of it … It would always grow bigger, but if it really grew up to a certain point, then it would be too late!
Then now, the words of the Old Monkey, would slowly release him from his own world, allowing him to recognize me. To understand, there are some things that cannot be relied on, that need to be used. On the road of cultivation, can only rely on himself, the most the Old Monkey can do is support, otherwise, it would be extremely difficult for Sun Yan to reach the Foundation Establishment stage!
"Do you understand?" Seemingly knowing of Sun Yan's silence, the tone coming from the Old Monkey's black eyebrow rod slowly calmed down.
"I …" Sun Yan frowned, his heart was tangled with knots, but no matter how much thought he had, it could not compare to a single sincere sentence: "I'm sorry!"
"It's good that you understand. You should be careful when it comes to matters of life and death, especially on the path of cultivation …" However, after he appeared, his gaze was very gentle, and did not have the slightest hint of blame. Immediately after, he let out a sigh, raised the monkey claw on his left hand, and gently waved it at Sun Yan. Immediately, an extremely light ray of light gathered together amidst the illusions, and quickly rushed into Sun Yan's body!
Feeling the light flowing through his body, Sun Yan slowly closed his eyes. He had experienced this kind of feeling before, and when Sun Yan opened his eyes, without any surprises, his injuries were all better. There were even some fine wounds that healed immediately, and his five levels of Qi Condensation cultivation had also stabilized!
"Thank you!" Sun Yan looked at Old Monkey and felt guilty.
"Hahaha!" Old Monkey gave a carefree smile as he waved his monkey claws, saying without any hesitation: "It's fine, as long as you don't have to be so silly in the future, it's fine!"
"Of course!" Sun Yan's voice was light, but the determination contained within it, was the thickest one he had ever heard since he started cultivating.
However, the Old Monkey did not seem to care and quickly returned to his previous heartless attitude. He said: "Then, are you still going to the fifth floor?"
Hearing this, Sun Yan's brows immediately jumped, his mind stirred. Regarding this matter, it seemed like it was somewhat difficult for him to make a decision, but he quickly thought about it, and without thinking much more, he slowly stood up, shook his head, and said straightforwardly: "No!"
"Hmm?" Old Monkey rolled his eyes.
Then, Sun Yan took a deep breath and calmly said: "Cultivation cannot be rushed, I have even won with difficulty over a single six levels of Qi Condensation. Inside the fifth floor, what am I supposed to use to fight with seventh layer of Qi Condensation, and even if it's the eighth floor, I might as well cultivate properly … It doesn't matter if it's longer, but stability is the most important thing! "
At this moment, hearing Sun Yan's words, Old Monkey was somewhat gratified in his heart, because he knew that this was not avoiding him, but measuring his capabilities. Even if Sun Yan had some special abilities, if he were to challenge a higher level condensing stage without anyone noticing, it would just be seeking death. Old Monkey could not take the initiative to explain this point to him, and could only allow Sun Yan to comprehend it himself.
"Then where are you going?" Old Monkey's expression did not change as he continued to ask.
"The sixth floor is too small, if He Long knew that I didn't die, he would definitely give chase once more. And from what I see, he seems to be treating this rod as some sort of treasure, so staying in a place like the sixth floor with so many inner disciples is also extremely unsafe … "I'll go to the seventh floor. Although there's a bit less spiritual energy there, the area is double that of the sixth floor. It's more than enough for me to stay in there for the rest of the month!" Sun Yan analyzed the current situation, and said decisively.
"Sure!" The Old Monkey nodded.
After confirming everything, Sun Yan did not delay any further, immediately putting away the black eyebrow rod, got up, and flew towards the seventh floor!
… ….
The eighth floor, somewhere near the border.
In the forest.
Carrying her body that was riddled with scars, Tang Youmeng walked up to this place in a bumpy manner, not caring about the part of her spring sunshine that was leaked due to her junk. She did not rest throughout the entire journey, and did not dare to rest even more, because she was afraid that the three people behind her would catch up, and also because she knew very well that if she were to fall into their hands again, she would really be … A hundred deaths without a doubt!
"Fortunately, those fellows didn't know that due to my clan, the bow and arrow in my hands have a unique function of recognizing a master. If triggered by someone else's spirit energy, it can be controlled by me for a short period of time. My clan's weapons can only be used by my clan …" It's a pity that they were unable to retrieve my storage bag s, and lost so many clan treasures.
"Sigh, without Building Foundation Period, just with the strength of his condensing stage alone, he still could not leave a mark on the storage bag …" Muttering to himself, Tang Youmeng looked at the green arrow tightly grasped in her hands. It was just that the current it, had lost all of its previous agility, and in her large eyes, there was suddenly a trace of worry, but it was quickly replaced with relief.
"But this is good as well. If there really is a mark, then no matter how strong the enemy is, such an opportunity will not appear. In fact, I might not even be able to escape!" Tang Youmeng muttered following after, but she did not expect that if she really reached the Building Foundation Period, then those so-called strong enemies of hers would no longer be strong enemies!
He continued walking, and then after a while, a look of anger appeared on her face as she spoke randomly: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, damn it, stinking my fault, you still haven't come to save me after so long, fighting over the qualifications of a Bewitching Sky Palace, could it be that the qualifications of a Bewitching Sky Palace is more important than my life?!"
But at this moment, just as she was fuming, there was a sudden movement in the wind behind her, causing her expression to change. She immediately stopped talking, held her breath, retracted her aura, and hid in a big tree, secretly observing her surroundings!
This could be considered as her training of agility in the face of adversity!
Very quickly, a figure appeared before her. It was just that this figure was not He Long and the other two, but rather a rabbit, causing Tang Youmeng to heave a sigh of relief. Dazhuangshan was a natural land.
But suddenly, a sense of danger enveloped Tang Youmeng's mind!
Without any hesitation, she didn't even have time to change her expression. It was as if she had completely forgotten about the serious injuries on her body. Her body suddenly moved and she left her original spot. She rushed toward the seventh floor without even looking back … Looking at her original position, there was a cracking sound as the tree she was on was sliced into two in the blink of an eye!
"He's already injured to this extent, but he's still so nimble!" He was Ming Ze, and as Tang Youmeng left so quickly, surprise appeared in her eyes. The current him was holding a green blade that was bright and beautiful, but also powerful.
Only, he did not know that it was not because of Tang Youmeng's agility, but because she had displayed his survival instinct under the threat of death, but that instinct could not be maintained for long. After all, Tang Youmeng was still severely injured!
As a result, when they just arrived at the boundary of the seventh and eighth floor, they saw He Long, who had been waiting for them up ahead, change her expression greatly once again. However, the strength in her body, as though it had been drained by some formless exhaustion, suddenly drained away, causing her entire body to immediately crawl on the lawn not too far away from He Long!
This scene was naturally seen by He Long, who, at this moment, revealed an evil smile: "I said, you won't be able to escape!"
And at this time, in this place, the Zhang Qian that was previously cultivating here was nowhere to be seen!
… ….
Dazhuangshan, seventh floor.
Somewhere in the grass.
He quickly arrived at the seventh floor. Even though he was fairly close to the eighth floor, according to the Old Monkey's views, the seventh floor had the densest amount of spirit energy!
With that, Sun Yan emptied his mind, sat cross legged and closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.
However, just as Tang Youmeng was suffering, Old Monkey who was by the side leisurely looked at Sun Yan, his gaze suddenly focused, and directly turned towards the direction of the seventh floor, and from time to time, he opened his mouth, "I'll say …"
Hearing that, Sun Yan who had just entered the spirit aura not long ago, slowly opened his eyes, and asked: "What's wrong?"
"Do you remember that little girl?" Old Monkey did not directly answer Sun Yan, but asked instead.
"That little girl!" All of a sudden, a weird girl with a pair of watery eyes appeared in his mind. Towards this aunt who wanted him as a slave, to be honest, Sun Yan found it hard to forget, but it was very obvious that the Old Monkey was a little cautious, and did not intend to ridicule him. Thus, he asked again: "She, what happened to her?"
"Just now, in order to ensure the safety of this place, I released some of my own Spiritual Sense. As for where I was … As he spoke, Old Monkey extended his left monkey claw and pointed at the eighth level. He continued, "My spiritual consciousness has felt some minute fluctuations of spiritual energy …"
"Eh?!" Sun Yan was startled, his eyes moved, and immediately understood what he meant: "You're saying that the little girl is in trouble there?!"
"En!" The Old Monkey nodded and continued, "The spiritual energy there is mixed, and there are some battle fluctuations. She seems to be being chased by the other three, who knows, there might be a life and death crisis there!"
"What!" Hearing that, Sun Yan frowned, but he suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. But right after, he asked again: "Who are the other three people?"
"Two of them don't know their identities, but one of them is the fatty who chased you!"
