Chapter 464 - Tomb of the thousand armed asura (Part-4) (1/2)
Ryuu watched the group as they climbed, after reaching the chimney area, Ryuu had stopped on the short ledge as he was showing others how to climb the part, but another part worried him, a quarter of the mountain from the base was gone and they were near about halfway through, as such he could not help but mumble out loud, ”Ugh, we have to move faster.”
”Is there something wrong Daoist Brother Ryuu?”
Ryuu grimaced as he spoke, ”We have to pick up speed the mountain is already a quarter gone, so move fast.”
A grimace formed on the person's face as he moved up following Ryuu's instruction as he looked at the long line that was rising he sighed, 'At least most have already passed this point, I think it is my time to move up.'
He moved to the ledge as one of the cultivators who saw him shouted out, ”Where are you going Ryuu?”
”I am moving up.”
With that, he jumped from the ledge holding onto a crack before pulling himself up as a couple of cultivators looked at him with awe, as one of them spoke with a shake of his head, ”Monkey, that is some kind of monkey that has cultivated enough to gain human form, there is no other explanation.”
”Brother can you move a little there are so many beauties you are preventing me from peaking.”
The cultivator who was just admiring Ryuu smirked as he spoke, ”Sorry brother for hogging all the sight let me move a bit then we can both enjoy…”, as he spoke he looked up only for a rock to drop on his head hard making his grip loosen as he slipped down a bit.
”What the hell are you doing? I would have died.”
The person who threw the rock was a woman, who looked at them akin to the look that one gives to a bug as she spoke with a scowl, ”That was my idea you wretched perverts, I wanted you to die, the mountain is disappearing and you are too slow to move if you wish to die then jump off and kill yourselves there is no need to cause others to needlessly die.”
The duo of perverts grumbled before they began to move as did the others behind them.
Frost Flames arms ached badly as she bit her lips in frustration, 'Ryuu was right the gravity is increasing as we move up, at the same time the air is getting thinner and thinner to the point of nonexistence, it is taxing on our bodies without any KI.'
A hand suddenly appeared in front of her startling her only to relax as Ryuu appeared with a slightly laboured breathing as he spoke, ”How are you holding up.”
Frost Flames gave a tired smile, ”So so.”, and then a frown appeared as she spoke, ”How are you here? You stayed behind back on that ledge.”
”There are many routes to the top, but of all the routes available the one you all are taking is the easiest one.”
Frost Flames simply smiled tiredly as she spoke, ”I will stop talking your words are giving me a headache.”
”Then I suggest to pick up the pace the mountain is collapsing incredibly fast.”
A look of alarm passed through her face as she gritted her teeth while forcing her muscles to work harder.
Ryuu grabbed on to the ledge as he pulled himself up he immediately laid on to the ground as he began his breathing exercise to control his laboured breathing as well as his heartbeat, an exercise his teacher taught him to employ after such laborious work, to better control his blood flow and his breathing in case he has no access to KI.
Half a minute later Ryuu opened his eyes as he sat up, he then put his hand behind his back to reach his ever-trusty flask with a smile on his face.
He then proceeded to take a sip from it as he let out a gasp of pleasure as he spoke, ”I might not be able to choose from the contents because of the lack of KI, but I am glad that I have access to 'Jade Moonflower Tea' for the time being.
His eyes then fell on the next part of their objective they have to cross a large lake and beyond it was a doorway, 'The air is too thin not to mention the gravity of this place is enormous for people that are without KI, even a Body Refiner would have trouble keeping up let alone a KI refiner.'
