About ten minutes later, Shui Xin felt better.
The group felt a little relieved and leaned against the fire to recover their strength and internal energy.
As time went by, Li Tianyi recovered nearly three levels of internal energy and immediately rushed to Shui Xin's side, using his internal energy to check her internal condition.
The internal energy passed smoothly through other parts of the body, but when it entered the vicinity of the head, it was met with an extremely strong, cold aura that resisted it.
That area is a vulnerable part of the human body, and Li Tianyi dared not fight it with all his might. After several attempts, he chose to give up.
“There is an extremely strange, cold energy guarding her sea of consciousness. I suspect it is a protective or sealing force left by some master in her body.” Li Tianyi’s expression was solemn, and his brows were deeply furrowed.
Lei Shiyu seemed to be deep in thought, then suddenly spoke up, "I remember she mentioned the Grand Elder of the Shui family unintentionally. He seems to be a reclusive master."
"If that's the case, I'm relieved." Qi Yan patted her heart, letting out a long sigh of relief.
Li Tianyi forced a smile and pulled a luxurious bed out of the system space. "Carry her to the bed to rest; the floor is cold."
"Okay," the two women said in unison.
In the following days, the three of them took turns caring for Shui Xin, but she showed no signs of waking up.
"Sigh, it seems that if I want to wake her up, I have to leave this place." Li Tianyi searched for a long time in the system space but couldn't find any extra diving equipment. He smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that I have to think of another way to leave this place."
His gaze shifted, looking towards the far distance.
The trees ahead were tall and the forest was dense, making it impossible to see anything else. After thinking for a moment, he said, "You all stay here. I'll go into the woods and see if I can find a way out."
"Brother Tian, be careful."
"I will, and you should also pay close attention to your surroundings."
After giving them his instructions, Li Tianyi left them some laser weapons and dry rations before heading towards the densest part of the forest.
The further you walk, the thicker the layer of fallen leaves becomes, reaching above your calves and up to your knees.
"What a strange forest. We must be careful."
With their ears on high alert, they could hear every rustling sound in the vicinity.
Gradually, I entered a state of mental and physical clarity.
But his feet kept moving...
I don't know how much time passed, but a sharp, withered branch tore through my clothes, and the intense pain shattered the strange state, jolting me back to reality.
He quickly looked around, cold sweat pouring down his forehead. "Luckily I woke up quickly. If I had been a second or two later, I would have either fallen to my death or drowned."
Directly in front of us is a large waterfall, with rushing water that seems to have no bottom.
In the instant I turned around, I caught a glimpse of a blood-red shadow out of the corner of my eye; it vanished in a flash.
Upon closer inspection, no living creatures were found. "Could I have been mistaken?"
Li Tianyi tried hard to recall what had just happened. The blurry image gradually became clearer, and he could roughly determine that this thing was definitely some kind of unknown creature.
"Should we go take a look?" Keep a calm mind.
"I have to go see it." Curiosity.
"This thing is definitely more than five meters wide by now, it's best not to provoke it." Keep a calm mind.
"What if it's a treasure? What if it can lead you to a way out?" Curiosity continued, "What if it lives in a treasure vault? You wouldn't want that either?"
My composure began to waver.
After a brief internal struggle, I decided to go and see.
Upon reaching the edge, they discovered there was no path around them; to get down, they would have to jump off the waterfall.
Looking at the bottomless pool, my heart pounded.
Take a deep breath of cold air, put on the recovery mech, and leap into the air.
When a person experiences rapid weightlessness, they will feel inexplicably restless and uneasy. Now that they are about to fall into the water, they quickly change direction.
Boom!
Water splashed everywhere, and it sank rapidly into the pool.
Suddenly, a chilling aura that seemed to freeze one's blood rushed out of the water, startling Li Tianyi so much that he immediately rushed to the surface.
They swam rapidly toward the rock face.
The moment my hand touched the rock wall, I felt a sense of weightlessness. My body was propelled by inertia, and I passed right through the rock wall.
After stumbling a few times, they arrived at the entrance of a spacious, damp cave. A wary glint flashed in their eyes as they tightly gripped Po Jun.
"This place is strange, we must be careful."
Get out a powerful flashlight and head inside.
After a few dozen steps, the surroundings became dry, and the temperature was lower than outside.
Li Tianyi didn't pay much attention until the strange cold penetrated his internal energy, at which point he realized the danger and quickly withdrew.
My fingers accidentally touched my skin; it was icy cold, and a chill wafted through the air from time to time.
He circulated his internal energy to dispel the cold air.
"This place is so eerie, could it be the habitat of some terrifying creature?"
His brow furrowed deeper as he racked his brains for a solution.
Time passed by, and not only did they not come up with a solution, their bodies were also covered in frost, making their jaws chatter from the cold.
He circulated his internal energy again, and an incredibly hot aura surged from below his dantian, instantly dispelling the cold air.
The descending chill rushed into his body, was assimilated by the scorching heat, and transformed into a purer power.
"Huh!" After examining himself internally and finding no problem, he boldly absorbed the energy again.
This time I absorbed quite a lot, and I could clearly feel a power several times greater than my own assimilating my original power.
"I've struck gold!"
A smile grew wider and wider on Li Tianyi's lips as he silently recited the strongest calming mantra, his mind and body rapidly returning to tranquility.
In this state, the assimilation rate increases several times over...
After an unknown amount of time, Li Tianyi finally woke up from the strange state, exhaling three large breaths of stale air, and an unprecedented feeling of comfort spread throughout his body.
I tentatively reached my hand into the extremely cold area and found that it could no longer condense frost on it.
They boldly ventured deeper, and were not frozen.
In the time that followed, whenever he went to a place where frost would form on his body, he would temper himself.
This process was repeated until they finally arrived at the coldest place.
A huge red body could be vaguely seen, its abdomen bulging for a few seconds every now and then before returning to normal.
"What kind of creature is this? It's huge!" Li Tianyi was on high alert, proceeding cautiously until he could see it clearly. He was shocked. "A python?"
Upon closer inspection, it is different from a snake; it has no scales, its body is estimated to be about 5 meters wide, and its entire body is bright red with scattered small black spots.
During the period of abdominal distension, a layer of mist, similar to dry ice, will rise above the body.
However, when it exhales, the mist will be inhaled into its body.
Li Tian was so engrossed in looking that he didn't check behind him, where the ground was gradually freezing over and slowly spreading towards him.
The speed is so slow that you won't notice it unless you turn around.
A few minutes later, an extremely cold chill came from behind him. He knew something was wrong and turned around to see that the path he had come from was covered with frost and impassable.
laugh!
The red creature spewed out a large amount of mist, showing signs of awakening.
"Damn it, how am I going to get out of here?" Looking around, he couldn't find a way out. He immediately closed his eyes and flashed the scene he had seen when he came in before his eyes. Finally, his vision settled on a protruding rock. "I'll take a gamble!"
They rushed over at top speed.
The movement brought with it a gust of wind and a bit of internal energy, causing the red creature's body to tremble; it was about to awaken.
Li Tianyi dared not be distracted and rushed towards the protruding rock at full speed.
As soon as it got close, Po Jun struck it, and a long spark lit up.
roar!
The red creature awoke, enraged, and charged forward, shouting, "Insects, disturbing my slumber! You deserve to die!"
The sound rang in my mind, but it made my eardrums ache and my head spin.
"What a terrifying creature!" Li Tianyi's face was grim, his brows furrowed, as he chopped at the protruding rocks with increasing speed.
Suddenly, the stone shattered, revealing a pitch-black passage.
The moment it burrowed in, the red creature rushed to the side, but because the opening was only half a meter in size, it was temporarily unable to pursue it.
"Ants, ants!"
The roar kept echoing in Li Tianyi's mind.
They dared not linger for even a moment and fled at top speed.
Ten minutes later, all sound ceased. Panting heavily, he leaned against the mountain wall. "What the hell was that? It was terrifying!"
Images of red creatures kept flashing through my mind.
"I can't figure it out no matter how hard I try, so I'd rather not think about it anymore."
Before the words were finished, the electronic voice sounded: "Ding! A level 6 high-level peak creature, an ancient blood eel, was detected. It is 35 meters long and 5 meters wide. Its whole body is blood red with scattered black spots. It is extremely cold. Its blood is a great tonic for those with a cold constitution. After consuming it, one can break through the Xuan Barrier and become a first-class expert."
"Ding! Friendly reminder: It is at its weakest on the day of extreme yang."
Li Tianyi's lips curled into a bitter smile. "Damn system, how am I supposed to know when the day of extreme yang is?"
"Ding! Three days later!"
"Hehe, you idiot system, you're not entirely useless after all!"
The system nearly collapsed, gave him a disdainful look, and fell silent.
Knowing how to obtain the blood, he was in high spirits, humming a little tune as he made his way at a leisurely pace...
Two hours later.
Li Tianyi finally returned to the edge of the pool, where a white object was reflecting light in the far distance.
My heart tightened, and I rushed over.
A scream rang out, and Lei Shiyu, clutching her private parts, plunged into the pool.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!" Li Tianyi didn't dare to look anymore, his head bowed. "I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything!"
Lei Shiyu did not answer.
Half a minute passed, and there was still no sound behind him. Li Tian was shocked and turned around abruptly, but there was no sign of her.
He shouted urgently, "Lei Shiyu, Lei Shiyu!"
"Oh no, they've sunk into the pool!"
They rushed into the pool as fast as they could to search.
Soon, a figure could be seen sinking.
Li Tianyi didn't care whether she was dressed or not, he swam over quickly, grabbed her, and rushed towards the surface of the water.
At this moment, Lei Shiyu's eyes were closed and her face was pale; she needed to breathe fresh air as soon as possible.
Accelerate at full speed and break through the water.
He held her in one arm and swam toward the shore.
After finally reaching the shore, emergency first aid was administered, and Lei Shiyu vomited out a large amount of water from the pool before slowly waking up.
Two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks. "You shameless, shameless! Cough, cough cough..."
"Don't get excited, don't get excited!"
Li Tianyi had already turned away, but the image of the other person's hot body kept flashing before his eyes. His body temperature was rising rapidly, and the evil in his mind was stirring.
As soon as Kindness appeared in the sea of consciousness, a dark aura struck her, forcing her to retreat from the sea of consciousness in a sorry state.
Evil instantly took over the body.
He suddenly turned around, his eyes already bloodshot, a lewd smile on his lips, and pounced on Lei Shiyu.
Lei Shiyu was pinned down, struggling desperately, "No, no..."
