"Wang Yun!" Qi Xing whispered. Suppressing his injuries, Qi Xing turned around and looked at the crowd before continuing to penetrate deeper into the cave. Zhou Wen's injuries couldn't be considered serious, they were mostly superficial and had already been treated with medicine.
Zhou Wen hesitated for a moment before following, but Han Feng did not hesitate and walked forward. He seemed very excited, as if he was very curious about the depths of this desolate mountain. Although the four people following Han Feng had the intention to leave, they steeled their hearts and followed after seeing that everyone was continuing to go deeper in. However, they did not know that they would not be able to leave this place.
On the way, Qi Xing and the others encountered a few more demon dwellers. Seeing that Zhou Wen was injured, the other party directly strutted his body, and in the end, he was heavily injured by Qi Xing's sword. In the blink of an eye, he had run away. Even so, the wounds on Zhou Wen's body were being repeatedly affected.
"Zhou Wen, come back with them." Qi Xing said softly.
"That's right. Brother Zhou, your injuries can no longer be affected." Han Feng said seriously.
"Brother, you're right. Follow us out of the mountain." Not too far away from Qi Xing, a few warriors with tattered clothes also advised. These warriors were the ones that Qi Xing and the others had saved from the demon dwellers.
Zhou Wen quietly stared at Qi Xing, and Qi Xing did not avoid directly looking at Zhou Wen in the eye. Seeing that there was no other meaning in Qi Xing's eyes, Zhou Wen had no choice but to nod his head. In fact, he also understood that it was not appropriate for him to continue delaying his injury. After bidding farewell to Qi Xing, Han Feng, Wu Jiang, and the others, they followed the few warriors and left the barren mountain.
"There's nothing special about this mountain. Why are there so many Demon Dwellers here?" Han Feng said to himself.
"Big Brother Han is right. I just don't get it." Wu Jiang looked around and said.
Although Qi Xing was puzzled, he did not speak up. Suddenly, Qi Xing seemed to hear the sound of water flowing. When Qi Xing listened carefully, he noticed the sound of water flowing came from the left side. He immediately went towards the sound of water flowing. The sound of flowing water became clearer as the comet approached. Before long, Qi Xing and the others arrived at the place where the sound of flowing water was coming from. Qi Xing only felt the light in front of him brighten up, and the field of vision in front of him widened. In front of him was a small waterfall. The clear stream fell from several dozen zhang in the air, smashing against the stone and landing in the pool with a loud bang. The white mist obscured most of the pool, making it difficult to see clearly.
Standing at the edge of the pool, Qi Xing allowed the water to splash onto his body as he stared fixedly ahead. In Qi Xing's eyes, there was a huge rock, but the whole rock started to cave inward from the edge, and Qi Xing noticed even more that the rock was abnormally smooth and did not have the edges and angles that a rock should have. The huge rock continued to be washed away by the water current. It was as if Ji Hao saw the stone being washed away by the water for hundreds of years.
From the moment the waterfall was formed, a huge rock had been quietly standing at the bottom of the pool, being hit by the water current every second. In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed. The edges of the boulder had gradually been sharpened, and after another fifty years, the boulder had begun to show its obvious indentation. After a hundred years, the indentation continued to expand bit by bit. It was unknown how many years had passed since that huge boulder had been formed, but it had eventually turned into what they were now.
Time had smoothed the edges of the boulder and polished it like a mirror.
Han Feng repeatedly sighed in his heart when he saw the pit in the middle that was blasted out. Seeing that Qi Xing was still in a daze, she did not disturb him, and her eyes continued to scan her surroundings. As for Wu Jiang and the other three, they simply ran to the side to meditate.
Time passed quickly, and the light of the setting sun dyed the entire pool a dark yellow. Chang'e also walked out of the Moon Palace and stared at the moon. Her gaze seemed to gaze across time and space towards the earth.
Qi Xing slightly hesitated, an indescribable aura spread out. Within his body, there was an extremely mysterious acupuncture point located not too far away from his Dantian. As if enlightened, Qi Xing felt a slight chill and retreated.
"Brother Qi, you finally came back to your senses." Han Feng was very surprised and also extremely envious. He didn't expect that Qi Xing would suddenly gain enlightenment after just looking at the waterfall. Wu Jiang and the others might not be able to see it but Han Feng understood it very clearly. However, Han Feng did not inquire about it. Now he was hungry.
"Brother Qi, you finally came back to your senses." Wu Jiang and the others all sighed, with a trace of dissatisfaction in their words.
Qi Xing felt a bit apologetic, but he didn't say anything. Just as he was about to leave, a ray of moonlight shone down on the waterfall, and a ray of purple light suddenly shot out from behind the waterfall. Everyone instantly stopped moving and turned around to look at the direction of the waterfall. However, the area behind the waterfall was completely dark, making it impossible to see clearly.
Everyone had dense doubt on their faces as they looked at Han Feng and the others. He suspiciously looked behind the waterfall. Although it was impossible to see clearly, everyone still opened their eyes wide, hoping to see a thing or two. It was all in vain. The crowd just stood there quietly, no one talking. There was only the loud sound of the waterfall crashing against the pool. After a long while, the crowd was disappointed. That purple light did not appear again.
Qi Xing turned his head to look at Han Feng, who seemed to have sensed something. Seeing Qi Xing nod his head gently like this, Wu Jiang and the others understood that they had decided to investigate everything after looking at each other. Qi Xing picked up a rock from the ground and the Yin power in his body surged. The stone that was infused with Profound Yin power flew out of his hand. Qi Xing threw the stone behind the waterfall and immediately listened attentively. The stone pillar charged into the waterfall. One breath, two breaths, there was still no sound of impact. Everyone heard this loud and clear, and their faces revealed a faint excitement. There was never a lack of fortuitous encounters in the martial arts world, and everyone instinctively felt that the cave behind the scenes was not simple. Thinking about the Demon Dwellers' behavior during their days in the barren mountain, their hearts burned with passion.
Han Feng leaped and landed on the huge rock in the middle of the pond. Qi Xing did not understand Qing Gong, but the basic jumping method was still feasible. With a single leap, he landed on top of that huge boulder. However, he had underestimated everything. His feet slipped and he almost fell into the pool. On top of that, the waterfall above him shook continuously as he stood on top of the huge rock. Wu Jiang and the rest were not much better off. Only Han Feng appeared very relaxed. Seeing Qi Xing in such a state, he extended his hand to support Qi Xing. Qi Xing hurriedly channeled his Black Yin energy into his feet to stabilize his body. Seeing that everyone was safe, Han Feng continued to walk forward.
The water continued to gush down from above, and Qi Xing felt as if there was a huge weight on his shoulders, making it extremely difficult for him to lift his feet. He had no choice but to be extremely careful as he walked. There were several times when Qi Xing almost fell into the pond. Wu Jiang and the other two men were not in a good mood, but they wanted to get a better look at the situation, so they were not willing to give up.
As they walked behind the waterfall, Qi Xing felt as if he had lost all of his strength. Very quickly, Han Feng arrived at the waterfall. The light behind the waterfall was very dim, but one could still see clearly.
"There's a cave." Han Feng only said one sentence before taking the lead to enter.
Qi Xing immediately became excited when he heard that. He raised his head and saw a cave. The cave was very big, but it could only accommodate two people at the same time. Water droplets seeped from time to time from the surrounding walls, seeping into the crevices of the rocks along the protrusion. Without hesitation, he jumped into the cave. Wu Jiang and the others also followed quickly. They didn't dare to delay at all. At this moment, everyone was completely drenched. Suddenly, the Mysterious Sky Yin Power turned and shivered. The water stains on his body quickly turned into frost and fell off like ice.
As soon as they executed the technique, Han Feng and the others felt a wave of cold air attack them. Wu Jiang and the others couldn't help yawning. He looked at Qi Xing strangely, but didn't say anything. He quickly used his inner force to remove the water stains on his body. It was unbearable to be completely drenched, not to mention the night. Beside him, there was a guy who would occasionally erupt with a burst of cold air.
After removing the water stains, they started to inspect the cave. However, this cave seemed to be too deep. It was so deep that one could not see the end of it.
