Chapter 2169: Breaking Out

The Diviner had sent them to an unknown world and taken everything from them. They could only rely on their talent and intent to become stronger. Lin Feng didn’t know whether that world followed the same rules as the outside world or not. Maybe it only looked similar.

Even though Lin Feng’s cultivation level was very low in this world, his experience remained unchanged. It took Lin Feng half a month to create a new skill. A powerful absorbing strength appeared in the cave as he absorbed five kinds of strength, condensed pure Qi, and used his pure Qi to refine his veins. His pure Qi grew more powerful.

Lin Feng was inhaling and exhaling Qi. It was the skill he had thought of; to become stronger, absorbing five sorts of strength to condense pure Qi was an excellent method.

More days passed and Lin Feng opened his eyes. Lights glittered in his eyes. He had practiced with single-hearted devotion and without distracting thoughts, becoming one with the earth. He could absorb five sorts of strength and use them for himself. His new skill also contained some attacks. He could now easily defeat the beasts in this world.

I’ll go out and see if I can become an extremely strong cultivator here, thought Lin Feng. Now that he had a set of spells, skills and techniques, he wanted to know how to pass that test. Apart from leveling up, was there anything else he needed to do?

After leaving the cave, Lin Feng moved quickly, intending to leave that forest.

After a short time, he bumped into a terrifying beast, a mahoraga which spat out poison at him. Lin Feng used wind intent and merged with the wind, looking like a great roc. He shook his arms and a real great roc’s silhouette appeared, brandishing its golden claws, able to conquer every obstacle. It moved towards the mahoraga and ripped into it. Blood started gushing.

The gigantic mahoraga roared defiantly. Lin Feng’s punch turned into a beam of light, his pure Qi turned into an earth attack, as heavy as a hammer. He crushed the mahoraga into pieces. After Lin Feng killed it, he took its heart and absorbed its pure Qi. He wasn’t worried, he knew that despite his cultivation level he could cope with the power of the pure Qi…

—

The forest was extremely vast. Lin Feng was walking and didn’t forget to practice cultivation at the same time. He was becoming stronger at a terrifying speed. Lin Feng understood something then; It was no surprise that extremely strong cultivators could progress quickly. Lin Feng’s cultivation was restrained in this world, but relying on his unique cultivation experience and understanding abilities, it felt like was no limit due to his cultivation level. As a Tian level cultivator, he had no limit. It was extremely easy for strong cultivators to break through until they started trying to break through to the Di Qi layer.

People in the outside world could see everything distinctly. Everybody who was stuck in that world started making skills and techniques, and also killed beasts. Some people progressed quickly, some people progressed slowly. The crowd also realized that some beasts protected caves in which there were spells, weapons, skills, and techniques, treasures there to help the fighters.

There were dozens of people in each forest. Of course, there were exits, each guarded by a powerful beast. To leave, they had go through those exits. However, nobody had succeeded yet. After finding an exit, many people had been encircled by groups of powerful beasts and had been killed.

Some days passed and finally, someone managed to break free from the beasts’ encirclement and leave. It was a group of people with some terrifying cultivators.

After that, someone managed to leave on their own. It was Hua Qing Feng, the First Master of Godly Clouds. He was wearing white clothes, looked like a scholar, had a celestial book spirit, and he strictly enforced the principles he learned in the Holy scriptures. One word and he could release an infinity of swords. The beasts couldn’t stop him.

Lin Feng also started bumping into other cultivators. He learned about the exits. At that moment, he also joined a group of people.

“It’s the valley in front of us, we can’t fly there. We must walk. If we want to leave, we have to go through it. Many powerful beasts are there. Some beasts have the strength of the top of the Tian Qi layer. Even though we could destroy them when he had the strength of the Huang Qi layer, now they can easily kill us. Some people died in there already. That’s why we started gathering together!” someone explained.

The man’s name was Lou Lan Yu. He looked skinny, but sharp lights glittered in his eyes. He looked like a supernatural being. He had started gathering people and had also invited Lin Feng to join them.

“How powerful are the creatures in the valley?” asked someone.

“I’m not sure, but I am convinced that to pass the exam of the Shrine, we have to leave the valley quickly. Even if it’s dangerous, we have to go and check. Since we’re already a big group, other people have probably thought of doing the same as us. We can’t be too weak, otherwise, the other groups will eliminate us!” replied Lou Lan Yu calmly.

“I agree with Lou Lan Yu We can, we can slowly practice cultivation in this forest, but we can’t stay here forever. We don’t know how strong other people are getting. Maybe if we become extremely strong, we might be eliminated because we’ll be too late. We have to check,” said someone else. They were seven people there, but they all hid their cultivation. After all, they were all geniuses and it was an exam, some people had ulterior motives. Hiding their cultivation level was easy for them; they were geniuses, they could easily learn such small things. They were competitors in here, not allies. They had agreed to form an alliance because they really needed it.

“Let’s go!” said Lin Feng. His eyes were twinkling. At that moment, he had the strength of the ninth Tian Qi layer. Of course, he also hid his cultivation level, just like the others.

“Let’s go!” agreed Lou Lan Yu, following him. A twinkling sword appeared above him. When people saw that terrifying Tian level weapon, they were startled. It could kill some of them!

“I was lucky, I found this sword in a lake. It’s swift and ice-cold, perfect for me!,” Lou Lan Yu smiled at them. Apart from him, someone else had a great blade. He had also been lucky in the forest.

They entered the valley and suddenly an extremely cold wind filled with bestial energies started blowing.

“Be careful, since we’re a team, we must cooperate, who wants to defend?” said Lou Lan Yu to the others.

A strong-looking guy moved forwards and said, “I will.”

“Alright, Fan Jiang, you help us defend. I’ll attack quickly. Who else can attack quickly and help me destroy enemies quickly?”

“I will,” said the one who had the gigantic blade.

“Good. We’ll stay in the front. Who’s quick?”

“Me,” said someone else. Lin Feng also came out and said, “I control Wind intent.”

“You cover us and kill those that manage to get through our net,” said Lou Lan Yu, “The last two ones, you kill as you can. We don’t know what we’ll go through, so we have to be really careful and kill our enemies quickly.”

They continued moving through the valley in two lines. They soon saw a group of beasts.

“So many beasts. They’re all level 4 or 5 Tian level beasts. It shouldn’t be too difficult. Let’s go!” said Lou Lan Yu. Everybody followed quickly.

“Defenders, stay in formation. If we surround them, we can win easily!”

The beasts roared furiously as they caught sight of the intruders. Fan Jiang’s spirit appeared, a gigantic shield. The beast’s attacks crashed onto his shield. Lou Lan Yu and the young man with the gigantic blade started killing beasts on both sides. Lou Lan Yu’s sword contained cold strength, the young man’s blade contained fire strength, they started shredding the beasts.

However, the beasts’ energies blotted out the sky and covered the earth, and bore down on the group. Lin Feng and the others also started attacking and crushing beasts. They didn’t stop moving, always moving forwards. As they walked forwards, beasts’ bodies collapsed on both sides.

But they didn’t look happy, there were still many beasts, lions, eagles… Their eyes looked piercingly cold.

——

Half a day later, they finally escaped the valley. They saw a river and a city ahead of them. They were all covered with blood. Fan Jiang had even lost an arm to a griffon. If he hadn’t moved quickly, he would have died. People of the Tian Qi layer couldn’t recover easily. Only Zun cultivators could use their blood to grow their body parts back.

“It seems like I will fail the challenge of the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds.” said Fan Jiang sounding sad. His arm had been cut off, and he was injured. He couldn’t compete with other people anymore.

“Don’t give up. Even though we left the valley, we don’t know what awaits us. Let’s stick together and move on,” said Lou Lan Yu, slapping Fan Jiang’s shoulder. Fan Jiang’s eyes glittered, as he looked at the others.

“Good suggestion. Let’s go to the city together, let’s not waste time,” said someone. Everybody nodded and continued walking forwards. They glanced back and considered that the valley filled with powerful beasts behind them probably sufficed to stop many people…
