Chapter 063: No Way Out at the End of the Mountain (1)

  The wind whistled past, and the Daqian City below was as small as a wooden box. I was intent on distributing the blowing wind, gesturing and babbling in front of Hai Ji, making her laugh.

  "Where are we going? Should we look for Hat Dan Mei and Gan Lime Zhen first?" I took a deep breath, and my lotus clothes hunted against the wind. The air after the rain was humid and fresh, the sky was a watery purple, and the sunrise was floating all around, reflecting the red colour of my clothes.

  Hai Ji said, ''You made such a mess at the Puffing Fragrance Fest, it won't be long before the entire Red Dust Heaven will know about you Lin Fei. At that time, Gan Lime Zhen and Hat Dan Mei will definitely rush over to meet you, so if you go to find them, you'll miss them instead. Why don't you first find a place to stay temporarily near the Great Thousand City and wait for them to come."

  I nodded happily and Hai Ji said, "You said that Yun Dalang's black baggage is very powerful, so have you thought of a countermeasure? Don't forget that you boasted that you're going to compete with him again in a month."

  I bitterly shouted, "I am having a headache over this matter, day his grandma, there is no certainty at all in my heart. Moon Soul, you kid can save my life then."

  Moon Soul hee hee sneer: "Don't count on me, rely on yourself."

  I froze, "Didn't you say at the time that you were there to make me feel at ease to fight Yun Dalang?"

  Moon Soul: "I only said that to strengthen your guts, otherwise you are afraid and have no fighting spirit, you will definitely lose to Yun Dalang."

  I shit! After all this, this guy is just coaxing me! I want to cry, to the sea Ji said: "This is bad, you have not passed the door will become a widow."

  Hai Ji spat at me, "Don't be ridiculous, anyway, there's still a month left, so practice your spells. If you really think you can't, I'll just fight for you."

  I nodded: "You're right, let's find a secluded place to land and practice first, and then we'll fly in pairs, kiss and cuddle, and just be envious of lovebirds and not of immortality."

  Hai Ji was furious and amused, "I've never seen you being such a scoundrel. I also don't know what kind of sorcery I have been hit by you, actually to you, to you ......"

  "How about to me?" I asked with a salivating face, seeing the root of her snow-white neck illuminated golden by the dawn light, I couldn't help but move over again, wanting to give a kiss.

  "Stop! It's already happened once today, no cheating!" Hai Ji laughed and dodged me, and said with a straight face, "There's an Orange Island in the southern suburb of Great Thousand City, with beautiful scenery and secluded, no outsiders to disturb it. Why don't we go and live there temporarily, it's close to the city anyway, and it's convenient for you to go to the city to take a break if you feel bored from practising."

  "As you wish!" I immediately flew towards the south on my blowing wind, crossing the Piao Xiang River that spanned east and west, and then travelling forward through a vast wilderness, and according to Hai Ji's directions, I landed at a three-way intersection. Because it was still early in the day, the neighbourhood was sparsely populated, the avenue to the left had occasional human demons in a hurry, and the path to the right was secluded and submerged in a dense bamboo forest.

  Hai Ji led me to the right side of the path, the surrounding silence, bamboo was washed by the rain green, milky white morning mist curls floating. Hardly seven turns out of the bamboo forest, but the road ahead was suddenly interrupted, at the end of the ten thousand feet of cliffs, under the cliff is a four sides of the valley.

  Looking down at the valley rising heavy gorgeous clouds, I asked; "below is the Orange Island? These clouds are rather more vivid than brocade."

  Hai Ji laughed: "This is not a cloud, but the bottom of the valley's flowers and fruits after rotting out of the miasma, poisonous, inhale a few mouths guaranteed to kill you. As for Orange Island, you can't guess where it is even if you break your head." From his ear, he took out a golden snail, which became the size of a house in the blink of an eye. We drilled into the golden conch, the conch mouth immediately closed, to the bottom of the valley sinking rapidly.

  Standing inside the golden conch, I abruptly remembered my first kiss with Hai Ji, and my heart couldn't help but flutter. Hai Ji glanced at me, her face suddenly flew red, lowered her head and rubbed the corner of her clothes, her beautiful eyes flashed with a delicate light. I looked at her dumbfounded, to be able to stay with Hai Ji for a few years like this, even if I were given an emperor, I would not do it.

  "With a bang, the golden conch fell to the bottom of the valley, we walked out of the golden conch, only to see the miasma suspended in mid-air, like a natural barrier covering the valley. I was surprised and said, "Strange, how come there is no miasma at the bottom of the valley?"

  Hai Ji pointed at the small greyish-white bugs flying all over the mountain and said, "They have all been eaten by them. This kind of bug is called aphids, and it likes to suck up the colourful miasma the most. The aphid is probably the shortest-lived animal in the North, with a life span of only one day, living at sunrise and dying at sunset."

  A few aphids swept past my eyes and flew lightly towards the miasma. Their eyes were bright yellow, like small round grains of sand, and their transparent wings fluttered, revealing ugly grey-white dorsal stripes. I laughed, "What's the point of only living for a day? But then again, living one day with you is better than many years."

  Hai Ji was overjoyed and led me towards the valley. Passing through a colourful forest, a stone apron appeared in front of me, beside which there was a meandering brook, with red and white droplets floating in the clear water. Behind it was a mountain wall that cut straight into the clouds, a hundred feet high. I wondered, "Is this Orange Island?"

  Hai Ji smiled mysteriously and walked upstream along the stream, which flowed out from a crack in the mountain wall that was half a foot wide and extended all the way to the depths of the mountain wall. Hai Ji took a deep breath, her body became paper thin, and winked at me, "Follow me in." Abruptly, she drilled into the mountain crevice.

  "So there's a secret passage here!" I shouted in surprise, performing a kind of soft-boned demonic technique, my whole body sheepishly shrinking like a snake, squeezing into the crack. It was dark inside, like a very narrow tunnel. Walked half a joss stick of work, the front brightly, even to the other side of the mountain wall.

  "This is Orange Island!" Hai Ji waved in front, I walked out of the mountain crevice, only to see the blue waves outside, it is a lake, there is a sandbar in the centre of the lake, from a distance it looks red like a fire, the continent is full of tangerine trees, tangerines are big and round, like a lighted red lantern.

  "I also accidentally discovered this place many years ago, and every time I came to the Great Thousand Cities, I would always stay here to avoid those people who stare at me like flies to curry favour." Hajime pulled me around to look around, excited like a little girl.

  I jumped onto an orange tree and picked a red orange and stuffed it into my mouth. Smoothly, I lay down in one of the branches, crossed my legs, and hummed a little tune in a leisurely manner.

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

  "Stop being playful, little rascal, it's time to get down to business." Hai Ji stood under the tree, tilted her head and said, "First let me see how your mana is, or I can help you think of ways to improve it. It's no child's play to fight a demon under the Demon Lord's seat, you need to prepare seriously."

  I threw away the orange peel and said condescendingly, "Why don't you let me accompany you for a few moves and we'll see once we try it."

  Hai Ji smiled faintly and leapt up, her palm transformed into a golden light and slashed over like lightning. Holy shit, her quick temper hasn't changed at all, she fights when she says she will! I fight, my left palm transformed into a steel shield, solidly slamming into Hai Ji's Pulse Meridian Blade. "Bang", the sound of gold and stone clashing came out loudly, I stood on the tree and didn't move, Hai Ji drifted back to the ground. I hooked my finger proudly, "Heart Beauty, continue!"

  "Sure enough it's a lot stronger, no wonder even Liu Cui Yu isn't your opponent anymore. But be careful, I won't show any mercy now." Hai Ji praised, still standing under the tree, instantly slashing out dozens of hand slashes, one slash faster than the other, golden coloured blade shadows hissing, chopping at me from all directions.

  "Sculptural tricks, how dare you show off in front of my old man?" I said greasily, my hands transformed into huge shields and waved them around to block the chakra blades. "Bang, bang, bang," my figure shook wildly, the power of the Pulse Meridian Blade had been enhanced by more than ten times from earlier, shocking my hand shields so sorely that I almost fell off the orange tree. I cursed myself for being too complacent, Hai Ji's power was far deeper than mine, how could I fight her hard?

  "Be careful!" Hai Ji exclaimed, not waiting for me to return to my senses, the surrounding knife light suddenly changed direction, horizontal to straight, to the left to the right, once again intertwined into a vertical and horizontal harsh knife network. I hurriedly perform the recluse demonic art, in the knife light on the body of the moment to leap down the orange tree. "Clattering", the tree full of oranges fell down one after another, the juice spattered, each of them was split into neat halves by the knife Qi. Lifting his head, Hai Ji has already stood playfully on the tree, smiling, his golden hand knife pointing at me from afar.

  "You're going to murder your own husband!" I was so shocked that I didn't dare to be the slightest bit lax anymore, my left hand slapped the trunk of the orange tree, the orange tree immediately turned into a puppet tree man, the branches of the tree shook violently and held Hai Ji at the waist. Hai Ji let out a clear whistle, the pulse meridian knife cut off the branches, the whole tree was crushed into powder by the knife energy. Not waiting for her to attack me again, I already pounced on her, Xuan Gui Secret Dao Technique gave birth to a circle of qi that wrapped around Hai Ji's hands, and Phantom Dance drifted erratically, attacking her vitals one after another.

  Hai Ji leapt up in the air, forcibly breaking free from the Xuan Gui Qi Circle, yelling, "Little rascal, actually becoming so powerful."

  I laughed out loud and performed the Phantom Dance to attack with all my might, while matching it with an endless variety of spells. For a while, Hai Ji was beaten by me and kept retreating, succumbing to the wind.

  "Bang!" I suddenly struck the ground with a fist, splashing up six oddly shaped fist shadows, spinning around Hai Ji like a horse light and attacking at a rapid pace. This was the Six Dinjia Imperial Art that I had never used before, Hai Ji dodged five fist shadows in a row, and was grazed across her forehead by the sixth, the force of which shook her blonde hair backward. My fist then transformed into a hammer sweep, forcing Hai Ji to the edge of the lake, my long sleeve swung out and slapped her fragrant buttocks in a seductive dance position. Hai Ji stumbled and her left foot stepped into the lake water, wetting her boots. I squeezed my eyebrows, "Let's take a mandarin ducks bath together."

  "Hmph, don't get too happy too soon." Hai Ji pulled out the golden conch from her ear and blew gently, a big golden shining net floated out of the mouth of the conch.

  I was aghast in my heart, knowing that this was Hai Ji's bottom-of-the-box stunt, the Pulse Meridian Net, and hurriedly performed the Feather Dao Technique to float and fly back, while at the same time my hands paddled, laying down a Xuan Gui Circle around me.

  "Want to escape? The Pulse Meridian Net is known as the Heavenly Dragnet, even Immortals can't escape." Hai Ji's beautiful eyes were rippling, as the Vein Meridian Net came down over her head, and the dazzling light of the net lines was sharper than a knife. The surrounding orange trees shattered one after another, and even the Xuan Gui Qi Circle was cut into pieces by the net lines.

  I screamed that it was not good, and cast dozens of spells in a row to try to break the pulse meridian net, all to no avail. Not only was the meridian net impenetrable, but it was also flexible and rigid, large and small. Seeing that a few zhang in a radius were all covered by golden light, the pulse meridian network continued to shrink, coalescing into a net-like lattice space, and I was like a fish or shrimp caught in a net, no longer able to escape.

  "Served?" Hai Ji appeared in the net, and then abruptly flashed outside the net, looking at me with a smile. I spat out my tongue, "Until the last moment, I will never surrender." I used my Dragon Tiger Secret Dao Technique in one fist, and then changed it into Chaos Armour Royal Technique to strike at the Vein Warp Net. The pulse meridian net was slightly shaken, and in turn, it tightened more and more. I screamed bitterly in my heart, knowing that the momentum was gone.

  "If you don't surrender, you're going to suffer." Hai Ji's finger flicked the golden conch, and the chakra meridian net emitted a biting blade qi that stung my skin.

  "Listen! Listen to the sound of my music." The Moon Soul on her middle finger suddenly called out, "Breaking free of the chakra network is not difficult, as long as you can hear my musical voice."

  I was dumbfounded, the sound of music? Where the hell is the sound of music? Damn it, what kind of music is this stupid bird, Moon Soul, asking me to listen to at this time of the day?

  "Listen with your heart, heir to the Phantom Dance." Moon Soul's voice seemed like gurgling water, "And not with your ears. The sound of music is outside the spell, within the mind."

  I seemed to understand as the chakra webbing became denser and denser, and the air around me exploded violently, golden auras completely flooding the field of vision.

  "Your person is in the chakra mesh, could it be that your mind is also caught in the mesh?" Moon Soul calmly said, "Look at me, give me your full attention."

  I gritted my teeth, beating a dead horse, maybe Moon Soul could really turn me around. I stared straight at the Moon Soul, collecting all the distractions in my mind.

  "Boom" sound, in front of my eyes suddenly a light, the scenery changed, I was standing on a round of curved moon, surrounded by clear light flashes, infinite depth, clear moonlight like ice water flow.
