Li Sisui slowed down and searched around. Finally, he found a large tree that would take four or five people to encircle. After climbing up the tree, his palm glowed, and he dug out a place in the trunk big enough for one person to rest.
To keep it hidden, Li Sisui dug a relatively narrow entrance, which would only become spacious after entering the tree hole. The tree hole was a bit damp after it was dug, so Li Sisui had to wait outside. While waiting, he was able to gaze into the distance and witness the sunset, which was quite a feast for the eyes.
Such natural beauty unconsciously stirred up feelings in Li Sisu, who vowed that one day, when his cultivation was complete, he would travel freely across the land, admiring the magnificent landscapes without restraint.
As night fell, a cool breeze blew.
Li Sisui sat cross-legged at the entrance of the tree hole. The bright moonlight, like a silver ribbon, floated lightly towards Li Sisui and enveloped his entire body.
The forest at night is much more lively than during the day, with the roars of wild beasts and rustling sounds coming from time to time. Li Sisui was quietly contemplating and focusing his mind, unaware of how many poisonous insects and ferocious beasts were roaming beneath his feet.
The chain is now long enough, so Li Sisui is starting to condense a longsword. Once the longsword is complete, he will combine the chain with the longsword, which will become Li Sisui's first weapon at the Qing Realm of the Pulse Rank.
If you want to continue condensing weapons, you can only continue condensing photons. When you can condense a second weapon, it means that your cultivation level has reached the Void Realm of the Pulse Rank.
Since he had to travel to find the mission location the next day, Li Sisui did not spend all his time cultivating. After condensing his energy for a few hours, he partially covered the entrance of the tree hole with branches and leaves, leaned against the tree wall, and closed his eyes to rest.
Although the first mission was simple, it was still a bit chaotic for Li Sisui. Not only did he have to be wary of attacks that could occur at any time, but Li Sisui also did not forget the person in the inner sect who had been making arrangements for him.
Li Sisui traveled cautiously, even though he had read the manual thoroughly and knew that being so close to the sect was considered a safe distance and that no powerful creatures would appear. Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility of an accident like the one he had when he went down the mountain last time.
Li Sisui, however, was more focused on the possibility of a surprise attack. Given such a good opportunity, it would be unreasonable for that person not to do something.
As a result, apart from a few encounters with wild animals, they did not encounter a single person along the way, let alone be attacked.
This put Li Sisui at ease. When he accepted the mission, Li Sisui had considered that if the mission was not issued by Su Qingyu, then it was most likely issued by that person.
Within the clan, killing among clan members is forbidden. Sending Li Sisui out would make it easier to carry out the attack, and whether successful or not, it would leave no trace.
Such a perfect plan, it's amazing that the person could come up with it. They're so ruthless in trying to get rid of me, Li Sisui is eager to know who that person is.
A silent, cold night, in a vast, desolate forest.
Perhaps because he was too tired, Li Sisui slept very soundly, even though he was in an unknown forest.
I woke up feeling refreshed and energized. I stretched out a lot, my joints cracking with every step. I felt like staying in bed a little longer. Right now, the only thing that makes me feel happy is sleeping.
Slowly opening her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a furry creature curled up at the entrance of the tree hole, its nature unclear.
Suddenly, all sleepiness vanished, but I couldn't make any big movements for fear of disturbing the furry thing. I could only keep my outstretched yawn in place.
According to the Cloud Piercer's Manual, the myriad things in the land are strange and wonderful. When it is impossible to determine what kind of creature it is, the best course of action is to evacuate quickly without disturbing it.
If you can identify the creature, make sure to kill it with one strike and quickly hide. If you cannot do that, retreat as quickly as possible without alerting it.
Li Sisui squinted, cautiously observing the furry creature, only to find that it seemed to be sleeping, its body rising and falling rhythmically.
What on earth is this thing? How did it get in without anyone noticing?
Li Sisui's mind raced, and he broke out in a cold sweat. If this thing had been harmful to him, he might not have woken up by now!
He quickly compared the object in front of him with the Cloud Piercer's manual in his mind, but was disappointed to find that there was no record of it!
Encountering a creature I'd never seen before on my very first mission was incredibly lucky; it would be a shame not to buy a lottery ticket!
Just as Li Sisui was contemplating whether or not to sneak away, the furry object suddenly moved!
The fluffy little guy seemed to have just woken up. He wobbled to his feet, shaking his round body. His four short legs seemed to be walking on clouds, stumbling along, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
After spinning around in place a few times, it opened its mouth wide, yawned, and looked like it hadn't had enough.
Then a pair of big eyes appeared, sleepily looking at Li Sisui lying on the ground pretending to be dead, and a hint of curiosity gradually appeared.
Li Sisui could hardly believe her eyes, but the little guy in front of her was clearly the cat from the previous world!
Could it be that he was hallucinating because he hadn't rested well? Li Sisui squeezed his eyes shut, then opened them again to take another look. The little guy was still looking at Li Sisui with an adorable expression.
This made Li Sisui almost lose control of his cat-loving nature, and he wanted to reach out and pet him.
But how could such a young kitten have survived in this forest until now?
Why did this little guy appear silently inside his tree hole?
Li Sisui originally wanted to sneak away while the little guy was sleeping, but before he could move, he found that it had woken up.
It's fine if it wakes up; I just hope it comes and goes quietly, without taking Li Sisui away.
