"Your left side! your left side! expect the next move!" exclaim Ling Zizhou.
The sound of wuush wuush accompanied the safest spirit beast that headed towards the left side of Mu Lian's body. Mu Lian deftly avoided the horizontal snare that would cut her body.
A split second later Mu Lian's palm struck empty air near the spirit beast. A loud voice sounded from the spirit beast's body.
The spirit beast roared then grew increasingly blind. After avoiding the deadliest of spirit beasts, Mu Lian made a combo move in the rainy season wind.
His palm deftly struck the empty air around his chest, stomach then the leg of the spirit beast. Mu Lian closed the combo movement by setting her right foot on the ground and hitting the empty air with both palms.
"Yeah!"
With the sound of a gedebum and the sound of the sac breaking, blood radiated from the back of the spirit beast. The punch of Mu Lian's palm hit the chest, stomach and legs of the spirit beast then penetrated all the way to the back.
Spirit beasts were lying on the ground covered in blood. His body was decorated with palm-shaped holes. Blood did not stop flowing from the wound.
Mu Lian looked away. The contents of his stomach seemed to rise to the throat when he saw the spirit beast that he had successfully subverted. Mu Lian covered her mouth with her hands.
It had been five days since Mu Lian saw this brutal scene but Mu Lian still felt nauseous every time she subverted the spirit beast.
During those five days Mu Lian faced 15 spirit beasts. Within a day, Mu Lian had to face 3 spirit beasts.
Mu Lian agrees with the saying that practice makes perfect. Because Mu Lian felt herself getting shrewd in the face of spirit beasts.
But still, Mu Lian could not stand the blood and fishy smell it gave off. Mu Lian was able to survive when treating patients with severe injuries but not if the injuries were caused by her.
Especially with the style of the rainy season wind. Mu Lian almost lost consciousness when she saw the wound inflicted by her nurse was very brutal.
Mu Lian had thought that she would never be able to bring out the skill she had learned but after barely being cut in half, Mu Lian discarded her naive nature.
Mu Lian moved away from the corpse of the spirit beast while reminiscing about the events of the past five days. Then sat down under the tree to wait for Ling Zizhou to take out the spirit beast core.
Ling Zizhou looked small due to the distance between Mu Lian and the distant spirit beast carcass. But Mu Lian still frowned because as a person who studied herbal plants, Mu Lian's sense of smell was trained so that Mu Lian could smell the fishy smell of blood that was still flowing from the corpse of the spirit beast.
"khkhhaa," Mu Lian sniffed the pouch containing the concoction then let out a long sigh.
"This is his spirit beast core," Ling Zizhou said as he threw out an equilateral triangle crystal prism.
Mu Lian caught it and then inserted the spirit beast core along with the bag containing the concoction into the dimensional bag.
Ling Zizhou stood guard around the perimeter when he saw Mu Lian meditating. Today the 'ratah' spirit beast that Mu Lian had to subvert had already been depleted.
Ling Zizhou observed the surroundings while occasionally glancing towards Mu Lian. The young man was endlessly astonished by the amount of chi absorbed by Mu Lian.
Meng Zhi and Meimei. They were shocked when they first saw Mu Lian meditating. They were increasingly convinced that going to the Heavenly Feet Mountain was the right decision.
At least based on the amount of chi that Mu Lian absorbed while meditating, Mu Lian was able to suppress the amount of spirit beasts present in the Sky Feet Mountain.
They did not dare to imagine what would happen to the herbs present in the valley if Mu Lian remained in the Eastern Ufuk Valley.
A short while later, Meng Zhi and Meimei returned from the line of trees. They approached Ling Zizhou because they saw Mu Lian meditating.
"We've expelled the nearest spirit beast so as not to come here again" Meimei said.
"But as always, we should find a place to rest away from the dead spirit beast" Meng Zhi said.
"Me and the master have a resting place 5 kilometers from here. We will head there after Mu Lian finishes meditating," Ling Zizhou said.
"I'm always at a loss for words when I see it with my own eyes" Meimei chirped as he looked towards Mu Lian.
"Hm. What are all the people surnamed Mu talented all," muttered Meng Zhi.
The sun set completely when Mu Lian and the others arrived at the cave resting place that Ling Zizhou had told him about.
Mu Lian lit a bonfire using Xiaoxiao's giving ring then Meimei started cooking*Opposum.
"Heh, Danggui and Si Cao, the ingredients are still the same but the catalyst is added, how many? Hmm.." raved Mu Lian.
His body was slouched while leaning against the cave wall. His eyes were half closed.
"Gosh, it's been five days still rummaging, '" Ling Zizhou said.
"But not as bad as yesterday" Meimei said.
"..." - ".(Meng Zhi is meditating)
"You mean when we make worm soup?" ling Zizhou said.
"Ens. And so forth," said Meimei.
Mu Lian had a new habit after arriving at the Sky Feet Mountain. Every night after eating, the girl berserked while raking to sleep.
Meimei had thought that Mu Lian had been exposed to a parasite belonging to a spirit beast. After making sure Mu Lian was fine, Meimei and the others let Mu Lian concoct overnight.
The next morning, Mu Lian always woke up with a radiant face. Meimei and the others suspected that this was Mu Lian's way of adapting.
"Hup. Hup. Ah~," said Mu Lian.
Mu Lian was stretching like the school children were doing on sports lessons on Earth.
"What is it to cultivate?" ling Zizhou said. The young man finally asked Mu Lian after five days of harboring his curiosity.
"Zizhou, I felt a significant difference after stretching. As the saying goes, in a strong body there is a healthy soul.
So if you diligently train and take care of your body, then your soul will be healthy and it will also affect your cultivation," Mu Lian said knowingly.
Ling Zizhou was stunned. He's never heard of it before. After weighing. Suddenly he put his jian on the ground.
"Can you teach me?" ling Zizhou said.
"of course. You've been keeping me a lot so in return, I'll teach you stretching" Mu Lian said.
A while later Meimei and Meng Zhi who were preparing to search for a spirit beast saw Ling Zizhou imitating Mu Lian's strange movements.
The heads of Mu Lian and Ling Zizhou looked up at the sky then looked down at the ground.
They turned their heads to the left and to the right. Turn your head left and right before turning your head left and right.
They hooked both hands then*pushing their hands forward, upward, to the left side and to the right side.
After that they bend *their right knee while their left leg is straight. Both hands are above the right side. They do the same movement for the left foot.
Meimei and Meng Zhi stared at each other. When they looked back at Mu Lian, the girl was already sitting on the ground. His feet were stuck together.
Mu Lian placed both her hands on her feet then*toward her body towards the feet.
"Have your head and your back straight" Mu Lian said.
After a few seconds, Mu Lian straightened her legs then*crossed the right leg over the left leg with the right leg resting on the ground and her knee in an upright position.
Mu Lian turned her shoulders towards the right slowly and held this position for a few seconds. Mu Lian then did the same move for her left leg.
"Where is our goal today?" ask Mu Lian.
"Ehm, we're going eastward" Meng Zhi replied.
"Come on, we better get going" Meimei said.
"What kind of spirit beast will I face today?" ask Mu Lian.
"Trapping type," Meng Zhi replied.
"Are you sure, senior? Mu Lian could only subvert the greedy after three days of trying and failing," Ling Zizhou said.
"Speedly or later Lian'er will be dealing with a trapper type. So he better start practicing" Meimei said
"If things get dangerous, I'll step in right away" Meng Zhi said.
"Hmm still.." said Ling Zizhou not continuing his words.
"How about a trapper type character?" ask Mu Lian.
Seeing Ling Zizhou's unwillingness to let Mu Lian face off against a trapping type made Mu Lian even more curious about the spirit beast.
Meimei explains that the trapper type catches prey by making traps full of gimmicks.
His original body was hiding around, waiting to pounce on the prey that fell into his trap.
When he arrived at the place Meng Zhi had set up, Mu Lian waited for Meng Zhi to search for a trapping-type spirit beast with Meimei and Ling Zizhou.
"Wait and study carefully the traps around, don't be rash" Ling Zizhou said.
"If you have any doubts, back off let us handle it" Meimei said.
"What is the most dangerous trap?" ask Mu Lian.
"For level 1 the traps you usually find are chi sucker mud. If you fall into the mud your chi is sucked up helpless.
There were also holes containing nails made of soil, but make no mistake these nails were so sharp that even foundation formation cultivators could be injured because of those needles.
There are also traps that will explode when stepped on, rendering your legs useless so you can't run when pounced on," Meimei said.
"Well?!" mu Lian said in disbelief.
"Senior, that's why I asked if senior is sure to let Mu Lian face that spirit beast?" ling Zizhou said. His face became serious.
"Yes. If not now, when else would Lian'er practice dealing with it?" Meimei. Seeing Meimei would not change his opinion Ling Zizhou turned his head towards Mu Lian.
"Mu Lian, if you have any doubts, don't push yourself" Ling Zizhou said.
"I know," Mu Lian said solemnly. He did not want to be pounced on when he could not move, or lose his legs, or become *Chuan'r human flesh
Ten minutes later Meng Zhi came and took Mu Lian and the others to the area where there was a suspected trap-type spirit beast.
Meng Zhi had to make sure the trapping type level was suitable as opposed to training Mu Lian through the traps that were around.
That's what made Meng Zhi so old. Meng Zhi provided the key points to deal with the trapping-type spirit beast.
A few minutes later Mu Lian and the others arrived at the place Meng Zhi had pointed out. Mu Lian took a deep breath then advanced step by step.
Mu Lian walked over cautiously. After hearing the explanation from Meimei and Meng Zhi, Mu Lian hypothesized that the trap created by the trapping-type spirit beast might leave a trace of chi.
As in living beings, Mu Lian could feel chi, so Mu Lian guessed that she would feel the same way. Mu Lian increased her attention to the chi around her.
Moments later Mu Lian felt chi on the ground near her feet. Without a second thought Mu Lian avoided the land.
The ground that Mu Lian had previously avoided slid several meters into the ground. Inside the pointed edges look very intimidating.
Then at the same time Mu Lian felt chi from her right side, Mu Lian stopped her legs that were about to touch that side.
Mu Lian jumped to the opposite side wobbly as it used one leg to support her weight point.
Mu Lian continued to dodge, not daring to stop for even a second because the consequences she received were extremely bad
Just set foot into the trapping type spirit beast area Mu Lian had been treated to death traps.
Feelings of hesitation began to engulf Mu Lian, yet her body did not stop moving in the same place.
This was the first time Mu lian had faced a trapping-type spirit beast trap, despite hearing the explanation from Meimei and Meng Zhi still the original trap was able to make Mu Lian desperate until Mu Lian had trouble thinking clearly.
Facing the traps it feels like we are working on a task but the lecturer gives a new task so that our tasks accumulate.
"Revelation!" exclaim Ling Zizhou.
