A rare opportunity

Chapter 735 Capsized in the sewer

People often find excuses when they encounter problems they can't solve. Honestly, Hu Mei suddenly disappeared, and logically, Li Yu should have gone looking for her immediately. But he was powerless! He could only find the best excuse to convince himself! Given Li Yu's current situation, the only option was for Hu Mei to leave on her own!

Indeed! He was powerless to go find Hu Mei now! After all, by the time he returned to the pond, he had already exhausted all the strength he had finally recovered!

Although this place seemed desolate, it was a good place for cultivation. Since I couldn't walk much, I decided to cultivate here. As for how to get out of this mountain range, I could ask someone after I recovered! So, he sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.

Honestly, the spiritual energy here is quite rich. While not as rich as that of Lingshan, it's dozens of times richer than before the Blue Jade Star's spiritual veins were unsealed! For ordinary cultivators, cultivation should be very fast. But for Li Yu, even if he was just recovering his power, his progress was very slow! This was because others only needed to cultivate a single dantian, while he had to cultivate countless dantian-like cells!

Of course, to avoid shocking the world, he hadn't dared to use "Thousand Hammers and Hundred Refinements" at full power. But not only was there no one here, even a large demonic beast was rare. So, he simply let go and used "Thousand Hammers and Hundred Refinements" at full power!

As a result, strange phenomena suddenly appeared around him! The surrounding spiritual energy rushed into his body frantically, causing the air flow around him to accelerate. He was like a funnel, swallowing up all the spiritual energy around him!

As the surrounding spiritual energy disappears, the scope of the funnel becomes larger and larger, gradually expanding outward!

With him as the center, all the trees bent down to him! Birds flapped their wings desperately, trying to fly away, and animals panicked and tried to escape back to their caves!

The momentum of his cultivation grew so strong that the great funnel burst out of the cliff! All the creatures in the Yunfu Mountains stopped in their tracks. The two sides, desperately fighting, stopped fighting! Even the fighting White Rabbit and Blood Wolf stopped fighting. They all stared at the sky above the cliff in terror, thinking the end had come!

Hu Mei, who was running, suddenly felt herself being pulled by an invisible force, making it difficult for her to move forward! She thought another terrifying monster had appeared, wanting to devour her. She was so frightened that her face turned pale! She desperately clung to a tree to steady herself!

At this moment, Li Yu, finally able to unleash his "Thousand Hammers and Hundred Refinings" technique without hesitation, absorbed and refined the spiritual energy with great pleasure, feeling refreshed! His cultivation level also soared steadily! From the Qi Training Stage, he soared straight to the Liquid Transformation Stage, and finally reached the seventh level of Crystal Condensation!

It wasn't that Li Yu didn't want to continue improving his strength, but he found that even with his full power, his cultivation speed was slowing down! Of course, the so-called slowness was only relative. If he wanted, he should be able to recover his cultivation here. However, it would take him a long time!

With his current cultivation level and his formidable physique, as long as he didn't encounter a Saint-level cultivator, he shouldn't have any problems protecting himself. The most urgent task wasn't to improve his cultivation level, but to enhance his spiritual power! He urgently needed to establish contact with everyone within the ring space!

However, although the power of the soul can be improved through practice, he found that his soul was damaged and needed to be repaired by some natural treasures or soul-enhancing elixirs! Otherwise, no matter how much he practiced, there would be no progress!

Of course, those dozens of Spirit-Nourishing Fruits had some effect. But it was just a drop in the bucket! It wasn't that the Spirit-Nourishing Fruits had no effect on him. It was just that the effect was minimal!

After all, this nourishing fruit wasn't a medicinal pill, and he had swallowed it unconsciously. He had simply used it to fill his stomach, not to refine or absorb it. Therefore, it had little effect on restoring his soul.

But now he secretly regretted it! If only he had known earlier, he would have left a few behind! Thinking of Hu Mei who had left, he felt even more regretful! If she hadn't left, asking her for one and refining and absorbing it might have had a very good effect. Perhaps he could condense a trace of divine consciousness and enter the ring space!

But there's no point in regretting it now. It's time to leave! First, find a monk and try to get out of this mountain range. Second, find some herbs that can help the soul. Once outside, find an alchemist or borrow a furnace to refine them into pills! Now, I have no furnace and no fire, so I can't make pills.

Thinking of this, Li Yu immediately stopped practicing and stood up. He looked up to identify the direction to leave. However, he found that the surroundings were blocked by towering trees, and he could not go far.

So he jumped up, stood on the treetop, looked up, and couldn't help but groan inwardly!

But when I looked around, I saw cliffs all around, and I felt like I was in a sky well!

Li Yu didn't believe that this was really a skylight with no way out. He immediately spread his body and walked around the cliff!

To his disappointment, the surrounding cliffs enclosed this world like an iron barrel! Not even a crack, let alone a passage! The only way out was through the sky above his head!

Li Yu felt helpless! If he were alone, even at the bottom of this abyss, it wouldn't be difficult for him to get out now. After all, he had reached the seventh level of Condensed Crystal and had the ability to fly. But he couldn't bear to leave Hu Mei here!

While he was searching for a passage, he had already spotted Hu Mei wandering around in the forest! However, he was too anxious to find a passage to greet her. He had originally planned to take her away with him after finding the passage, but now it seemed that this might be difficult!

Of course, given Li Yu's personality, he would never abandon Hu Mei. After all, she had done him a favor!

Seeing her floundering in the bushes, Li Yu felt a little sorry for her. He immediately flew over to her and was about to greet her when he suddenly heard a surprised voice:

"Huh? Why are you here?"

Li Yu looked up and saw a bloody wolf, a big white rabbit and a vulture standing in front of him in surprise!

Hu Mei looked up and saw Li Yu standing in front of her. She was stunned! She turned around and screamed in fear, then dived into Li Yu's arms!

Li Yu was terrified when he saw this! He couldn't even defeat one of these beasts, and now there were three of them! Although he was nervous, he pretended to be calm on the surface! After all, when facing these beasts, the more afraid you are, the faster you die! Only by showing no fear can you maybe scare them!

No need to bluff! Even the White Rabbit was wary of him! After all, it had suffered at his hands before! The Blood Wolf, however, wasn't fooled! He simply glared at Li Yu and the others fiercely. The Vulture, however, didn't understand what was going on and looked at Li Yu with confusion!

"Kid! You fell from that damn place and didn't die, you're quite capable! But in front of Master Wolf, you're just like an ant! However, as long as you answer Master Wolf's questions honestly, Master Wolf can spare your life!"

"Hmph! Senior Blood Wolf, aren't you being too confident? It's not certain who will live and who will die!"

Li Yu knew that he couldn't show weakness now! If he showed even the slightest sign of fear, they would immediately pounce on him and eat him alive!

"I think you're just looking for death!"

Blood Wolf was furious and was about to charge at Li Yu.

"Right, right, right! I think this brat is courting death! How dare he disrespect Lord Blood Wolf! Blood Wolf, teach him a lesson!"

Obviously, the big white rabbit wanted to provoke the blood wolf and was busy fanning the flames.

The vulture couldn't help but glance at the Blood Wolf with interest, then at Li Yu, who had already blocked Hu Mei behind him. It couldn't understand why this mere Crystal Condensation Realm cultivator dared to challenge the Blood Wolf? And why did the rabbit instigate the Blood Wolf? Could it be that this kid actually had the strength to compete with the Blood Wolf?

Seeing Li Yu's fearless demeanor, the Blood Wolf's heart began to falter. He couldn't help but glare at the White Rabbit fiercely. He thought to himself: Could it be that what the rabbit said is true? Could this kid really have some extraordinary qualities? I don't want to be overturned in this ditch with him!
