C50 The Howl From The Cave
"Let's see what mystical abilities are in this special qi seas... The variant triple qi sea would definitely be unordinary as it bore the sense of divine might" Xiao Ming chuckled to himself and quickly assumed an attacking stance.
WHOOSH!
He flicked his finger with a slight tremble. A swirling golden ray coated in a silvery shadow appeared. Without using any special techniques, Xiao Ming merely controlled this seemingly weak strand of dao qi towards a densely packed vegetation outside the cave's formation. A sturdy stem was afar and this was where Xiao Ming's hit struck precisely.
BANG!
Within a few seconds of the strand's penetration, the stem was still calm. There didn't even seem to be any ripples apart from a loud deafening noise from anywhere. It wasn't long however that the upper part began to react to the swirl of dao energy. It suddenly melted out leaving a seemingly 'complete' half rooted to the ground.
Xiao Ming had a smile on his face as he couldn't conceal the joyful feeling he had just now. With a few more flicks, he released two more powerful rays towards different points in the area.
SWOOSH!
Two rays moved through his finger tips at the same time and momentum. One was a weak looking ice crystal and the other was a blinding tongue of golden flame.
BAAM!
The two energy rays pierced through whatever was left in the stump releasing violent tumors in the region. The scene was chaotic as the stump rapidly lost its vitality until it disappeared from sight. It was soon blown away pitifully by the wind. Apart from a few dark spots and chilly zones around this environment, all was definitely 'normal'. One would hardly recognize that the population of trees here had reduced by a figure.
"Interesting! Those finger flicks are exquisite and deadly. The most interesting was the first swipe of dao energy. I believe if caught off-guard, a late stage Spirit Condensation would die a certain death and it would be difficult for an ordinary Houtian realm cultivator to go unscathed" Xiao Ming smiled and spoke in a solemn tone based on his evaluation. Master Huan on the other hand was merely nodding indifferently with an inward sneer.
"Little Huan... I suddenly feel like going out now. I'll like to consolidate my current cultivation realm in some interesting place" Xiao Ming beckoned the Moon Devourer sword with a smile and eyes narrowed into slits. He brushed the sword's skin with a continuous smile and his palms seemed to release sounds of metal clashing against jade.
"Where does Master want to go that's so interesting" Master Huan could not help asking with rolled eyes. For heaven's sake this bumpkin always seemed to have an overreaction over everything.
"Its naturally exciting to go have some cool party at the Demon Raiding Mountain haha!" Xiao Ming blurted with a cold smile causing Master Huan to shudder lightly and he couldn't help thinking what sort of anomaly this 'brat' was.
"This place has to be interesting from its name hehe! It might not be too bad to tour on this desolate region " Master Huan cackled inwardly with expectation. Xiao Ming buzzed off immediately with the use of his qi. He had just became a cultivator today and he had yet to chance upon a movement technique. Although it was recorded that the Shadowless Spirit Sword Sutra had a movement technique. Xiao Ming had yet to discover its current position and could only put up with this for now.
.....
Within the Demon Raiding Mountain,
A dark cave shrouded in powerful aura of devilish might stood. This cave was modelled in the form of a quietly laid dragon's head. The powerful and devilish Yin aura swirled thickly around the cave. From time to time, the reeking stench of blood would whiff around this region like an unsheathed Inferno.
Strangely, it was filled with an ominous aura of death as it laid in the center of this desolate land. That year, the reputation of the Demon Raiding Mountain grew to a formidable state. To any experts below the Dao Soul stages, they would surely be slaughtered if they acted recklessly in the Demon Raiding Mountain Range. This was due to the timely beast invasion that struck the mountain range from time to time.
Usually, it would be uncomfortable for anyone to establish a settlement in this sort of ominous and stifling environment inhabited by the cruel demonic beasts. But this majestic cave based on its aura and the feeling it gave one, they could feel the desolateness of some isolated beings. It was a mystery which sort of existence was hidden in this ancient cave.
AWOOO!
Suddenly, a loud and primitive howl sounded all of a sudden. in a synchrony, echoes of the wail sounded again in response to the first wail. Sure enough, there were beings hidden in the cave judging from that awful and terrorizing voice. Following the loud sound, the dark Yin aura surrounding the cave skyrocketed as though something was awakening.
