Walking to the bottom of the cliff, Chen Cheng made up his mind, took out his short knife, and stabbed it into the stone wall fiercely.

"Bang!"

The short knife stabbed into the stone wall and splashed several sparks, and then was bounced away, causing Shen Cheng's palm to feel slightly numb.

Looking at the stone wall again, there was only a shallow scratch left.

"My knife!" Shen Cheng was startled and quickly turned around to pick up the dagger, looking it up and down carefully.

After confirming that there was no gap on the blade of the dagger, Shen Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry..." Shen Cheng murmured after gently stroking the small "Su" character on the blade for a while, then put away the dagger and fixed his eyes on the pond beside him.

With a wave of his hand, a ball of clear water emerged from the pond and floated in front of Shen Cheng.

"Look at me flying on water!" Shen Cheng frowned, jumped up and stepped on the clear water.

The next moment, the clear water exploded because it could not withstand the pressure of Chen Cheng. Chen Cheng stepped on empty air and fell directly on the grass like a dog chewing snow. He was also splashed with water by the broken water ball, making his whole body wet.

Meng Nian was sitting aside at this time, holding a red fruit, eating while watching Shen Cheng's confusing operation.

Adhering to the spirit of never giving up, Shen Cheng stood up again and attracted a ball of clear water again.

This time, Shen Cheng used his mental power to speed up the flow of the clear water.

Finally, seeing that it was almost done, Shen Cheng just jumped up.

This time the water did not burst, but caught Shen Cheng steadily.

There's hope!

Shen Cheng's face lit up with joy, and he began to control the water mass under his feet to rise continuously.

Unfortunately, the faster the water flows, the greater the consumption of Shen Cheng's mental power.

Before he flew very high, Shen Cheng felt a swelling pain in his brain, obviously his mental strength had reached its limit.

As Shen Cheng became more and more confused, the water mass under his feet began to become unstable. The next moment, it exploded again with a "bang".

Shen Cheng felt a sense of emptiness under his feet, which was extremely familiar, and then his vision dropped rapidly——

"Bang!"

“Ahem…”

His back made close contact with the grass, and Shen Cheng, who had fallen from a great height, was choked by the dust that was stirred up and started coughing.

Well... at least I discovered that I can use this ability to fly for a short period of time, so it's not a loss.

Standing up again, Shen Cheng shook his head and swooped forward, stepping on the stone wall and flying over the eaves!

However, before he flew a few meters, Shen Cheng fell down again.

“It’s…not going to work…”

Lying on the grass, Shen Cheng looked up at the sky with lifeless eyes and muttered to himself.

After eating the fruit, Meng Nian trotted to Shen Cheng, squatted down, stretched out her finger and poked Shen Cheng's face.

Shen Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, there will definitely be a way. Then we will go out together."

Meng Nian shook her head, took out the account book and wrote and drew on it for a while, then showed the contents to Shen Cheng.

——I thought of a way, can I try it?

"Do you have a solution?" Chen Cheng was slightly stunned, then he stood up suddenly, pressed Meng Nian's shoulder and asked, "What is it?"

Meng Nian turned around and ran to the foot of the cliff, staring at the stone wall with his brows furrowed.

“Boom—”

Just when Shen Cheng was feeling confused, there was a loud roar, and the stone wall that Meng Nian was looking at was deformed, and scattered gravel fell onto the grass.

In a moment, a bulge appeared on the stone wall!

Chen Cheng's eyes lit up, and he walked forward to pick up Meng Nian. Then he jumped up and jumped onto the protruding stone wall. He asked Meng Nian, "Can we continue?"

Meng Nian smiled and nodded, then raised his head and continued to use his ability.

“Boom—”

…

By the time it got dark, Chen Cheng and Meng Nian had already climbed quite a distance.

The stone wall below has bumps one after another, like steps.

Every time Meng Nian built a step, Chen Cheng would hold Meng Nian and jump up, and then Meng Nian would continue to build the steps, and this would repeat over and over again.

Although their current location was still a long way from the top of the Sleeping Dragon Cliff, if they continued at this pace, Shen Cheng believed they would be able to leave this place soon.

Just when Shen Cheng was feeling overjoyed, Meng Nian in his arms suddenly froze, and then frowned in pain.

"Meng Nian? What's wrong with you?" Chen Cheng was startled and asked hurriedly with concern.

Meng Nian relaxed her brows, with some sweat on her forehead, but she still smiled and shook her head to indicate that she was fine.

But Chen Cheng no longer let Meng Nian use her abilities. He held Meng Nian in his arms and leaped back onto the grass in three or two steps. After carefully putting Meng Nian down, Chen Cheng frowned and asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Meng Nian took out the account book and started writing on it.

——I'm just a little dizzy, I can continue.

Are you feeling dizzy? It's probably caused by mental exhaustion...

It seems that the use of dream energy requires mental strength.

Thinking of this, Chen Cheng said to Meng Nian with a stern face: "Don't use your ability anymore, take a good rest first, and then we will continue to build the stairs after you have rested well."

Meng Nian looked at Chen Cheng and opened her mouth, but unfortunately no sound came out.

"Don't be so stubborn." Chen Cheng reached out and rubbed Meng Nian's head, with a gentle smile on his face: "Health is the most important thing. At this rate, we will be able to leave here soon. Don't worry, I will need you again in the future."

After hearing what Chen Cheng said, Meng Nian just sat down obediently.

"Okay, you take a rest first, I'll go pick some fruits." Considering that the ability used by Meng Nian to pick fruits should also consume mental energy, Chen Cheng decided to climb the tree himself today.

Just as Shen Cheng turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly felt his clothes being tugged at tightly. He smiled helplessly and turned to Meng Nian and said, "I've already told you, just have a good rest."

Meng Nian shook his head stubbornly, withdrew his hand, took out the account book, wrote a line of words, and showed it to Shen Cheng.

——Don’t leave me alone.

Chen Cheng was stunned. Looking at Meng Nian's frightened eyes as she held up the account book, he smiled slightly and took Meng Nian's hand. "Don't worry, I won't abandon you. Let's go."

Only then did Meng Nian show joy on her face, her eyes narrowed into crescents, and she nodded vigorously.

After finding a fruit tree, Chen Cheng asked Meng Nian to stay in a safe place, then rolled up his sleeves and started climbing the tree.

Meng Nian obediently ran to the side and squatted, resting her chin on her hand and watching Chen Cheng climb the tree.

Shen Cheng's ability to climb trees was naturally not to be underestimated. He easily climbed up the fruit tree, picked a bunch of fruits in no time, and then jumped down from the tree and landed smoothly.

When Meng Nian saw this, she immediately clapped her hands happily.

"Okay, let's go back and eat together." Chen Cheng said to Meng Nian after weighing the fruit in his arms.

Meng Nian nodded vigorously, trotted to Shen Cheng, and reached out to grab the corner of Shen Cheng's clothes.

Chen Cheng first smiled gently at Meng Nian, then walked towards the original place, and Meng Nian, who was holding the corner of Chen Cheng's clothes, followed closely.

The two people, one big and one small, stuck together, looking forward to going out together, and were full of longing for the beautiful life they were about to face.
