Blue Star, Dafeng Mountain, Core Shelter Kitchen.

Wu Mingyue shouted at the top of her lungs, "Why haven't the pangolin and bear paws been delivered yet?"

"I'll urge them!" Su Wanru frowned and used the search and rescue team's dedicated channel, "How much longer until the medicinal food ingredients are delivered?"

"We've reached the outer shelter. We have eight bear paws and about two thousand pounds of bear meat." Luo Shan led a dozen strong men on a frantic run.

"We're on our way back too, with three pangolins!" said Luo Ying's team.

"I just caught five golden carp, I'm coming right back." - Fang Yi

"I'm still searching for medicinal herbs in the back mountain. I'm missing just one last one, the Resurrection Grass," said Li Tianyi.

...

While the other members were returning, Li Tianyi left the Dafeng Mountain area and arrived near Yunwu Mountain.

Riding a space surfboard, flying low, searching intently.

He had unknowingly arrived deep in the Cloud Mist Mountain. If it weren't for the dial tone coming from the communicator, he would have been completely unaware.

Li Tianyi was startled and immediately looked around. The surrounding area was shrouded in clouds and fog, with extremely low visibility. Coupled with the interference of a strong magnetic field, he couldn't even determine where he was.

With a bitter smile, I landed on a large rock. The clouds were up to my thighs, making it impossible to see anything ahead.

"Electronic devices and systems are unusable. The only way to leave is to wait for the fog to clear."

I looked up at the sky; the clouds were thick, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate.

As time went on, my legs below the thighs felt cold and numb, so I moved them slightly.

Suddenly, my foot slipped, and I staggered violently, barely managing to regain my balance.

Li Tianyi patted his wildly beating heart, but his peripheral vision caught sight of where he had slid, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. "I almost fell off the cliff, what a close call!"

Standing on the edge of a cliff, I dared not move...

A few hours later, Li Tianyi was very tired and would occasionally switch to standing on one leg to relieve the strain on his legs.

"This awful weather, can't you just let the sun come out already!" Feeling depressed, a surge of anger welled up inside him.

Suddenly, a roaring sound came from the sky.

"This?" As I looked up, a large raindrop landed on my face, icy cold. "Damn, don't joke like that."

The rain intensified, dispersing the fog and making it barely possible to see the surrounding scenery.

Li Tianyi was in the middle of a perilous place, surrounded by cliffs, with only a stone pillar about one meter wide in the center.

The rain was getting heavier, taking away a lot of body heat.

A cold wind swept by, making his teeth chatter. He hurriedly circulated his internal energy to restore his warmth. "What a strange place. I have to find a way to get out of here."

His gaze searched the surroundings, finally settling on the three o'clock position. "If I grab that vine, I can swing down to the big tree below. Then, by going down the trunk, I can see the path back to the edge of Cloud Mist Mountain."

He leaped forward, grabbed the vines firmly, and swung across.

I miscalculated the distance and failed to swing onto the tree branch. I had to change direction in mid-air and swing with all my might to get there.

Click!

The vines drooped downwards, and Li Tianyi's plan failed once again.

"We must reach the tree before it breaks completely."

After taking a deep breath, his body felt light. With a powerful swing, the vines collapsed and he fell into the deep valley.

Suspended in the air, one can only try to remain still.

Fortunately, the vines did not fall completely; they were caught by the cliff rocks, and the weight was temporarily balanced.

Li Tianyi frowned slightly and took several deep breaths. "This is our last chance. Success means life, failure means death. We must go all out."

Slowly close your eyes and silently recite the most powerful calming mantra.

A few seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze unwavering, and swung them with all his might.

Click, click-click!

The vines rubbed against the cliff rocks, causing severe damage to their surface. As the last bit of surface broke off, the vines could no longer hold on and snapped instantly.

Li Tianyi felt a sense of weightlessness in his hands, immediately abandoned the vines, used his legs to gain leverage, and was only half a meter away from the nearest large tree branch.

In desperation, he thrust out the Po Jun sword.

The blade slid rapidly downwards for nearly a meter before stopping.

He dared not get excited and carefully moved to the point where the trunk and branches met.

"Whew! It's been so long since I've done anything this exciting. I almost killed myself."

Leaning against the tree trunk, the feeling of exhaustion intensified. I shook my head vigorously to clear my head a bit.

"System, system!"

It didn't respond to my calls, and when I tried the communication devices, all I got was a dead tone.

"It seems we can only try to get back after we recover our strength."

Dragging his weary body, he set up two simple warning devices, sat cross-legged, and began to circulate his inner energy.

Soon, wisps of smoke began to rise from his body.

As time went on, the smoke grew thicker, and the wet clothes gradually dried...

Dafeng Mountain, Telecommunications Room.

Wang Xue'er looked anxious as she kept controlling the spy satellite to search for Li Tianyi, but she couldn't find him.

"Step aside, I'll handle this!" Zhen Shuang said solemnly, activating a more powerful detection system.

A powerful wave of frequency pierced through the interference area and shot towards the location where the last signal lit up.

"Electronic interference!" Zhen Shuang shouted.

Wang Xueer immediately implanted it.

"Superconducting electromagnetic anti-interference wave, three long and one short!"

"Ready!" Quan Shengli said with a focused expression.

Multiple anti-interference frequencies appeared, and the scene below gradually became clear.

When they saw the broken vines, their hearts jumped into their throats, and they immediately ordered the spy satellite to probe downwards.

After descending just a few dozen meters, the image disappeared instantly.

"What should we do? What should we do?" Wang Xue'er panicked completely, her voice trembling with tears as she grabbed Zhen Shuang.

"Calm down, calm down!" Since marrying Quan Shengli, Zhen Shuang has become much more composed and less carefree. She pressed her down into a chair. "Brother Tian has many treasures on him, so nothing will happen to him. Let's not scare ourselves."

"Really? Really?" Wang Xue'er asked expectantly.

"Trust me!" Zhen Shuang forced a smile and gently patted her shoulder. "Xiao Quan, contact the outer perimeter of Cloud Mist Mountain and see who's there!"

"Yes, my dear wife!" Quan Shengli immediately made the contact and actually found someone closest to the scene of the incident. "Ji Ling, I have sent the general situation to your terminal. Go in and search immediately. Remember to leave a mark in a conspicuous place. I will have Isabelle come and meet you."

"Understood!" Ji Ling hung up the call, opened her terminal, and became increasingly alarmed as she looked at the screen. "Brother Tian, ​​please don't let anything happen to you!"

Once you've determined the direction, head towards the bottom of the cliff.

It had just rained heavily, and the road was slippery, which greatly reduced our speed.

The most unbearable thing on the road is the snakes, which are coiled on the road surface because the caves are flooded, which is quite frightening.

Ji Ling didn't know how much she had cleaned up before she finally arrived at the location of the accident.

I wanted to use the terminal to check the location, but found that the terminal was already turned off. "Looks like I'll have to rely on my own eyes!"

Looking around, they quickly found a place that could barely be considered a path.

Overgrown with weeds and dense with thorns, one had to clear a path as one moved forward, at a speed comparable to that of a snail.

A few hours later.

Ji Ling was so exhausted that she was seeing stars and felt weak all over, but she dared not stop to rest. She forced herself to continue walking, her body still staggering.

Suddenly, a towering tree appeared in front of them, so tall that it would take dozens of people to encircle it.

"I'm so tired!" When I got to the tree, I had no energy left. I leaned against the trunk, my eyelids drooping.

She was just an eighteen-year-old girl with little experience, and she fell asleep before even setting up the most basic warning devices.

A dozen minutes later, the sound of breathing startled the lurking cheetah, which slowly approached.

Ji Ling was unaware of the danger approaching and was sleeping soundly.

The cheetah was very alert. It stopped 20 meters away to observe, and after confirming that there was no danger, it adopted an attack posture.

Whoosh!

It shot out like an arrow released from a bow.

As the crisis drew closer, Ji Ling suddenly woke up to find the cheetah almost within reach. She quickly rolled to the right.

The cheetah missed its first attack, immediately turned around, and blocked its retreat with its gaping jaws and sharp claws.

Ji Ling was still in shock, and could only exert less than 60% of her strength. She tried her best to stand up by borrowing strength.

It doesn't give you any chance, attacking with its claws from both front and back.

Sizzle!

Ji Ling had several bloody welts on her back, and her mouth was crooked from the pain.

He swiftly drew his short sword and unleashed a beam of sword light.

Meow!

A gash appeared on the cheetah's foreleg, and a venomous glint flashed in its eyes as it charged forward with even greater ferocity.

Ji Ling braced herself with one hand and slid backward, but she wasn't as fast as the cheetah. Its gaping maw was less than ten centimeters from her throat. "It's over!"

In the face of life and death, the control skills of the Wan Jing Ling Sect flashed through his mind, and he used them in a similar manner.

Heh, meow!

The short sword was stuck in the cheetah's head, emitting a chilling aura. Its body went limp, and it crashed down heavily.

His head slammed into his left leg, and a crisp cracking sound of bones breaking rang out.

"Ah!" Ji Ling screamed, breaking out in a cold sweat.

The pain intensified, and my head felt dizzy. I tried my best to push the cheetah's body away, but I couldn't.

Gritting his teeth and enduring the excruciating pain, he lay flat on the ground, thinking, "I haven't found Brother Tian yet, how can I fall down?"

Driven by an intense will to survive, he sat up again and slowly moved the cheetah's head away, nearly fainting from the pain several times.

But she persevered thanks to her amazing willpower.

With great effort, he moved to the tree trunk, took out some wound medicine and poured it on his back, then picked up two dead branches and vines.

He bit down on a dry twig and slowly stretched his hands toward his left leg.

As soon as the fingers touched the skin, it made a "woo-woo" sound.

"Xiaoling, you can do it! You can do it!"

After encouraging myself, I gripped my leg, pressed my right hand firmly against my thigh, and raised my left hand upwards.

"ah!"

I saw stars, felt dizzy, and almost fainted.

Even though the broken bone has been repaired, it still needs to be immobilized.

With great effort, he placed the branch beside his left leg and used the vines to tie it up...

This process was more painful than setting bones; the small wooden stick in Ji Ling's mouth was bitten to pieces.

After finally getting it tied up, I felt a sense of relief and fell into a deep sleep.

A gentle breeze blew by, and I instinctively curled up, which aggravated my wounds, and I suddenly woke up.

Woo, woo!

The howls of wolves grew louder and louder.

Ji Ling looked warily toward the source of the sound, and saw a patch of green lights ahead. "A pack of wolves!"

Yu Guang then noticed the cheetah carcass and the bloodstains on the ground, and said to himself with self-reproach, "As an assassin, you can even forget to deal with bloodshed. Your actions have tarnished the word 'assassin'."

Filled with negative emotions, Ji Ling forced a bitter smile. "Someone like me is just a nuisance to others. I might as well die in the jaws of wolves and be done with it."

Having resolved to die, I ignored the wolf pack and simply watched them approach in silence...
