Chapter 22 - The Lone Ravine and Girl In Red (1/2)
Right when he landed on the ground, the first Jiao Dragon he materialized reached to the side of Yu Feiyan, it winded around her body and flew across the sky, finally coming to a stop after crashing into a number of towering trees.
But Yu Feiyan was still stunned, her psyche ocean was taken over by her inner evil, causing her to tumble a few rounds even after landing.
Fortunately, even if she didn't specifically cultivate a physique-refining technique, as a cultivator, her body was still stronger than that of ordinary humans, the tumbles didn't injure her much, only adding a few livid bruises on her beautiful white skin.
But the soul of the young damsel was still trembling in fear, her eyes were filled with terror, her inner demon still lurked within her psyche ocean.
"Senior martial sister, save me!"
Above them Tao Daier cried for help, Zhong Yue looked up, the girl in red was falling from the sky, but her rate of descent was very slow.
Eh? This visualization art is so unique, the thing she visualizes are the clouds.
Zhong Yue looked carefully, he could see clouds billowing around Tao Daier, slowing her speed of descent. He thought to himself, Elder Pu once said before, there are spirits in the clouds, after a long time of worship, they emerged from the clouds. Senior Martial Sister Tao could be one of those that walked the path of cloud spirit.
The pluriform cloud spirit had no fixed shape, no fixed features – it could blow with the wind, it could precipitate into rain, it could form into thunder, it could fly high up in the skies, it could hover low under around the mountains. The cloud spirit was a unique and wondrous spirit.
Yu Feiyan finally recollected her consciousness, she was, after all, the strongest disciple of the female house. She quickly visualized the fish-dragon and cleared off the inner demon within her; she saw Tao Daier falling from the sky and rushed over to her, she said, "Tao-tao, I will come and get you!"
Putong….
Tao Daier fell to the ground right in front of her, landing unceremoniously with her butt straight on the ground.
"Senior martial sister, you must be deliberately doing this!"
"No, I'm not."
Yu Feiyan returned the pair of hands that failed to grab Tao Daier back to the side of her body, looking unperturbed she said, "Tao-tao, as much as I would like to save you, but clearly I failed to do so, I missed"
Tao Daier helped herself up from the ground, she rubbed on her butt and said angrily, "This is not a miscalculation, you are deliberately doing it!"
Yu Feiyan peeped at Zhong Yue from afar, she whispered, "I am not, I have failed once just now."
"Nonsense, you are trying to hide your embarrassment that's why you dragged me along letting me fall too." Tao Daier snapped in anger.
While the two young ladies were arguing, they suddenly saw Zhong Yue picking another boulder on his back and start climbing towards the mountain cliff again, the two young ladies gazed at each other and walk towards him.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhong…."
Yu Feiyan kept silent for a moment, "Thank you."
Zhong Yue visualized the Jiao Dragon, smiled and said, "It's fine, you too jumped down right after me without hesitation. The two senior martial sisters, I still need to continue my training, I will not accompany the two of you any longer."
"Who needs you to accompany us?"
Tao Daoer coquettishly said, "We aren't drinking now!"
Yu Feiyan glared at her, then she turned to Zhong Yue and asked, "Junior martial brother, this is training?"
"That's right. By delving into the state of extremity between life and death, stimulating the hidden potential within and the desire to survive in order to defeat the inherent terror that would be faced – this is my training method."
Zhong Yue smiled and said, "Senior martial sister has gone through it too, so you should now understand how feels."
"Between life and death…."
Yu Feiyan gazed at him deeply, suddenly a pair of black wings spread out from her back and she flew up the to the cliff, she said, "Since you are training, then the fight between you and I shall be postponed to some other time!"
"Senior martial sister, you left me behind again!"
Tao Daier stomped the ground with her feet again, she quickly visualized the cloud and slowly, she was lifted up into the air towards the top of the cliff. She said to Zhong Yue, "Junior Martial Brother Zhong, we will see each other again next time, I will leave now … Oi! Don't climb so fast! Stupid cloud, idiot cloud, float faster…"
When Zhong Yue hiked to the top of the cliff, Tao Daier was still only midway up the mountain, but the young lady in black, Yu Feiyan, was nowhere to be seen. She must have gone far already.
The art of flying is indeed incredible . By visualizing the cloud and bird, one could fly, although I can steer on the speedy lightning, the psyche consumption was also very great and it isn't as agile as having a pair of wings. Wait till the next knowledge imparting day, let's see whether if I can get my hands on an art of flight.
He could feel the importance of having a flying art to the upper house disciples or even the Qi Practitioners. A flying art held a significant spot in their arts, whether it be used in combat or in routine footwork.
Hu——
Zhong Yue carried a large stone and once again jumped down the cliff. While on the way down, he plummeted past Tao Daier, it was already at least half an hour but the young lady in red was still making her way up to the cliff.
He displaced a large amount of air while falling down the cliff; the wind disrupted the young lady's cloud art and she started yelling out loud.
Moments later, Zhong Yue carried another large stone up to the cliff, Tao Daier again yelled at him in exasperation, pleading him to slow down.
