Chapter 81. Landslides, Landslides Everywhere.

Near that goth young master's location, a crack in space appeared. When elder Yi saw it, he activated several talismans and tried to pull the young master and barely escaped from the spatial crack.

But just like usual, the Heavenly Will won't let go of anything that has stolen its things. So, I saw an even bigger space crack appear under the panicked look of that goth young master and elder Yi.

After a long tug of war and spending a lot of talismans, Elder Yi finally gave up and allowed the young master to be swallowed by that space crack.

"Old fart, quickly pull me out! Pull me out!!! My master won't forgive you, you darned trash!" Under the goth young master's fearful face, elder Yi released the hand that had been holding him. Within a mere moment, I already lost my connection with the [Scan] anchored on that goth young master.

***

Thanks to the delay brought by the space crack I summoned with my [Devour], Su Ping and Bai Yushi successfully escaped from the goth young master and finally arrived at a mountain range enveloped by mists.

When both of them passed through the layer of mist, I could hear Bai Yushi sigh in relief as she quickly marched to one location.

Because the terrain she needs to pass is quite complicated, Bai Yushi already let go of Su Ping so he can walk on his own.

Su Ping just silently followed after Bai Yushi as both of them passed through mountains, rivers, valleys, and the area with suppression power she mentioned before.

At last, they stopped at a mountain top with an extreme slope and a massive boulder located nearby. Below the slope, there is a canyon that seems to be bottomless.

Bai Yushi explained. "This is one of the areas with suppression forces. Furthermore, the earth nearby is extremely unstable. All we need to do is push this boulder I've prepared and cause a landslide once those people arrive. The landslide will push them into that canyon while burying them along the way. Thanks to the suppression force, they wouldn't be able to fly and would fall to their death."

Then Bai Yushi raised one of her thumb while using the other to point at the canyon. "I already tried this method several times and it is super effective."

I saw Su Ping stare speechlessly upon hearing her plan to kill others through a landslide.

When Bai Yushi saw Su Ping didn't respond, she suggested. "Let's wait here for a few days. If the people chasing after you don't arrive here, that means we have luckily escaped their tracking."

Su Ping nodded in agreement. "Thank you."

***

What a pity, as both of them have no means to remove their trace, elder Yi easily tracked their path and arrived at their location in no time. From the [Scan] attached to Su Ping, I saw the elderly man approaching while red eyed.

"Listen here, you little piece of shit! I will skin both of you alive and feed you your own flesh before burning your body in flame for a whole year while feeding a medicinal pill to keep you alive!"

While walking at the slope, Elder Yi angrily roared at both of them. "I know you bastards are hiding behind that boulder. You better come out now and kneel while crippling your cultivation, or I'll go there and do it myself!"

Is speaking coarse language the trademark of demon cultivators? Both that goth young master and this half step into the coffin elder loved to spew coarse words.

When elder Yi was only 100 meters away from their location, Bai Yushi told Su Ping to push the boulder with her. "Now!"

Su Ping who had prepared himself, pushed the massive boulder under Bai Yushi's command.

Although the area they are in right now has the power to suppress cultivator's ability. But it doesn't affect the strength of their body that's been tempered.

"Hahaha are you trying to kill me with that small boulder?" Elder Yi who saw their attempt to push that boulder laughed before ridiculing them. "Do you think I am so stupid as to allow that stone to hit me?"

Elder Yi's laughter reverberated throughout the place as he prepared himself to evade the boulder. That is until he heard the rumbling of the earth that arrived together with the boulder.

When Elder Yi saw the landslide that arrived with that boulder, he cursed. "Fucking piece of shit!"

With his martial arts and strong body as a Golden Core stage expert, elder Yi tried to evade the landslide and enter a safe area. But the landslide caused by Bai Yushi's boulder is incredibly turbulent and wide in range.

"Die! I'll make you follow me to the grave!" Before he got swallowed by the landslide and fell down the canyon, elder Yi still managed to throw his great sword toward Su Ping and Bai Yushi's location. Although it missed by a breath's length, the impact was enough to destabilize the surrounding area and make the place around Su Ping and Bai Yushi to fall.

Caught unprepared, both of them also slid down from their place and fell toward the cliff. Luckily, the size of this landslide is much smaller than the one that swallowed elder Yi.

If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

While trying their best to jump above the falling stone and not be swallowed by the landslide, Su Ping panickedly opened the system shop. On it, he saw an item placed on top and written with a massive font.

[Recommended item: parachute, 1 point.

Detail: items used to slow down the speed of falling. Doesn't require any spirit qi.

Note: Upon arriving a few hundred meters from the ground, please pull the string on your right side to activate it.]

Yeah, that's something I've placed after seeing their current situation. I made it by comparing data from films I watched in my past life combined with [Calculate]'s power.

Due to the cultivation world somehow eternally stuck in the medieval Chinese era, I am even nice enough to add a short video on how to use the parachute.

After Su Ping purchased it, a backpack materialized on his body. On one side of the backpack, there is a string with a plastic ring at its end.

Su Ping who already watched the video, made his way towards Bai Yushi and hugged her with one of his arms. Then, both of them jumped away from the area where many rocks fell.

Although they are still falling from the canyon, without the stones that might hit them anytime, Su Ping can open his parachute safely.

Using the hand that holds the string, he pulled at it and activated the parachute. With that, the parachute released its canopy and the speed of Su Ping and Bai Yushi's descent slowed down.

Everything took a long time to describe but it all happened in less than five seconds.

When they arrived at the bottom of the cliff, both of them were already deep inside a canyon on the mountain range. Currently there is only a single road, and both of them must choose to either move to the left or right.

"Let's just choose a random direction." Bai Yushi spoke after contemplating. "It is better than standing here and waiting for death. At most we will retrace our steps if the path we choose ends up with a dead end."

Su Ping nodded his head once he heard Bai Yushi's idea. "Alright."

Soon the duo walked forward and followed the path until they found a dead end with a double door made of stone placed on the canyon's wall.

On the door, There is a mural depicting a pair of lovers that is pulled by multiple hands that tries to separate them from each other. Meanwhile, both the lovers tried their best to reach out to each other.

Su Ping placed his hand on the door in an attempt to open it. Yet, the door is still locked without budging an inch.

When Bai Yushi who stood nearby saw it, she lent a helping hand and placed her hand on the door. Yet before I saw her place any force on the door, it already opened on its own.

From the opening of that door, a blinding light shone brightly until the door finally fully opened. Inside the open door, a pink colored portal like thingy can be seen.

Su Ping and Bai Yushi stood frozen in front of the door, until Su Ping broke the silence. "So.. should we enter?"

Bai Yushi nodded. "Well, this door doesn't seem to be a bad place. From my experience, it most likely led to the place for some expert's inheritance."

After exchanging looks between each other, both of them walked inside the door and disappeared.

***

All this while, Ren Qingquan has actually followed after them. He is also the one that did the last hit and kill of elder Yi that chased after Su Ping and Bai Yushi. No matter what, a Golden Core expert's body is still incredibly powerful. Even after falling from such a height and unable to use his spirit qi, that elder Yi still has some breath left in him.

Of course Ren Qingquan being Ren Qingquan, he currently looks like a mess after killing that elder. Occasionally, I can hear him hold the urge to vomit from nausea.

But at least it is a growth from his previous self that is unwilling to kill his enemy!

While following both Su Ping and Bai Yushi, Ren Qingquan sometimes gave off a loud noise that should've reverberated throughout the canyon. Yet, thanks to his amazing invisibility state, no one has heard any noise from him.

Should I say as expected of an immortal ascension technique. Although it has a silly name, the 'Don't Peek At Me, Pervert!' technique actually can be used even inside this Mist Mountain Range that suppressed spirit qi.

By the time Su Ping and Bai Yushi disappeared into the door, I can feel Ren Qingquan got the sudden urge to follow them into the door. Especially when he saw the door slowly closing.

[Wait, host! We should see whether or not the place behind that door is safe. Let's check Su Ping and Jade Beauty Bai Yushi's Scan first.]

Upon hearing my suggestion, Ren Qingquan paused on his track and nodded. He then opened the viewing mode and watched Su Ping and Bai Yushi's surroundings through the [Scan] attached to them.

After both of them entered the door, their surroundings changed from the desolate canyon into verdant forests. Furthermore, they are currently in an unconscious state and are separated from each other.

Within the radius of their [Scan], there doesn't seem to be any dangers. So, Ren Qingquan decided to also enter the door.

Before that, he asked me to prepare something. 'System, once that Jade Beauty woke up, sent the system screen to her. It seems after entering a teleportation formation people will always fall unconscious. So, if she wakes up before me, I want you to help me and introduce her to the system function.'

[Alright. Do you wish to spend 11 points to create a subsystem panel and send it?]

'Yes!'

Right after answering me, Ren Qingquan slipped into the door that now barely allows one person to enter.

Once inside the door, I found Ren Qingquan was currently stuck inside a small dark room made out of solid stones. Just like he expected, upon entering the door and being teleported to this dark room, he indeed fell unconscious for a moment. But soon, he woke up due to his strengthened body from cultivation.

When he saw himself imprisoned in the small room, Ren Qingquan initially panicked and started to touch every corner of the room. He also summoned a hammer using Armament Transformation to shatter the stone wall within his surroundings. Yet, when the hammer made of spirit qi from Armament Transformation hit the stone wall, it only released a spark and didn't even leave any mark on the wall's surface.

Three minutes of random smashing later, Ren Qingquan shrugged his shoulder and retrieved his bed from [Storage]. 'Well, there is nothing I can do.'

So, he just entered his bed and fell asleep.

Watching him calmly fall asleep, I held the urge to zap him with lightning. No matter what, Ren Qingquan has indeed worked hard without sleep yesterday.

I might be stingy, greedy, and petty. But I am still not that heartless yet.
