Chapter 29: Thunder Mystic Object

"What's wrong?" Zhou Yang turned to look at Liu Qianru.

Liu Qianru, in a daze, pointed in a direction and, stuttering, said to Wang Lu and the others, "Is... is that Green Rock Mystic Water?"

Zhou Yang and the others followed Liu Qianru's gaze, but immediately their eyes widened as they saw what she was pointing at. In the direction Liu Qianru was pointing, a cactus-like plant, resembling green crystal, was growing there, its form flowing and dynamic.

"It's a Mystic Water object!" Zhou Yang confirmed, feeling both delighted and amazed. He had not expected to find two Mystic Objects in this cliff ravine. Zhou Yang looked at the Mystic Water object, knowing that although it seemed ordinary, Mystic Objects were not to be judged by their appearance. Its ferocity was no less than that of a Fire Mystic Object.

"Hehe! Don't fight me for it. I want this thing." Liu Qianru was overjoyed, as the Mystic Water object would be most beneficial to her.

Wang Lu and the others shrugged, indicating they didn't care, but warned Liu Qianru, "Be careful, Mystic Objects are not easy to deal with."

With Liu Qianru nodding, Zhou Yang turned to Xu Feng and said, "Xu Brother, when we subdue the Mystic Object, it will become even more ferocious. You haven't mastered Qi yet, so it will be difficult to block its residual force. Try to hold on until you break through to the Fifth Rank. If you can't, don't force it; retreat quickly."

Xu Feng nodded and said to Zhou Yang, "I understand."

Zhou Yang nodded and said no more. They began to take out various items from their pockets. Xu Feng watched as Zhou Yang applied a medicinal liquid to his hands, and he couldn't help but be amazed. He had heard of this medicinal liquid, which could resist high temperatures and was worth more than a thousand silver taels. Combined with the precious medicines Zhou Yang had consumed, this was a significant investment.

After completing all the preparations, Zhou Yang and the other three began to slowly approach the flames. Meanwhile, Liu Qianru alone headed towards the Green Rock Mystic Water.

Although Xu Feng was surprised that Wang Lu and the others let Liu Qianru go alone, he didn't pay much attention. He also moved forward, resisting the terrifying heat. Despite being far away, Xu Feng still felt the heat like boiling water hitting his body, making him extremely uncomfortable.

Despite the discomfort, Xu Feng began to practice the Dao Xuan Scripture. To his relief, the discomfort decreased as the Dao Xuan Scripture circulated. What made Xu Feng even happier was that in such heat, the speed of practicing the Dao Xuan Scripture increased significantly, even absorbing the heat into his body. Xu Feng's previously bottlenecked realm began to loosen.

While Xu Feng was immersed in his practice, Zhou Yang and the others also resisted the terrifying heat and were not far from the Green Rock Mystic Fire.

"Wang Lu! Use your sword to cut off its root," Zhou Yang shouted to Wang Lu.

Wang Lu nodded, took out his treasure sword, infused it with Qi, and swept it towards the lowest point where the cactus-like Green Rock Mystic Fire touched the ground.

Wang Lu used his strongest force, and the sword struck the root of the Mystic Fire. The moment it was cut, a burst of scorching flames shot out from the root, melting a part of the sword.

"Such scorching flames," Wang Lu quickly discarded the scorching sword, feeling a deep respect for the Mystic Object, which was indeed the most ferocious and terrifying existence of various elemental forces.

"Zhao Bai! Take out your treasure! I'll put the Mystic Fire into the treasure, and you cooperate with me," Zhou Yang shouted, seeing the Mystic Fire now separated from the ground.

"Understood!" Zhao Bai nodded, took out a small tripod-like object from his pocket, and carefully focused on the Mystic Fire.

Zhou Yang took a deep breath, applied several layers of heat-resistant medicine to his body, and then picked up the sword Wang Lu had discarded, approaching the Mystic Fire.

The Mystic Fire, after separating from the ground, became wildly agitated, flames spreading out and burning the entire space. A three-meter radius around it was entirely engulfed in flames, like a giant fireball. Under this explosion, Xu Feng was pushed back, and the heat was something he couldn't resist without mastering Qi.

Zhou Yang's Qi spread throughout his body, and he swung his sword, deflecting the flames shooting towards him, gradually approaching the Mystic Fire.

Mystic Objects, formed by the continuous compression and mutation of various elemental energies, were far more terrifying than the elemental forces commonly seen. While Zhou Yang and the others dealt with the Mystic Fire, Liu Qianru also carefully approached the Mystic Water.

Compared to the external ferocity of the Mystic Fire, the Mystic Water was more restrained. However, even restrained, when Liu Qianru cut off the root of the Mystic Water with her sword, a terrifying water jet shot out, creating a three-meter-wide crater on the ground, a shocking sight.

The ferocious Mystic Water shot out water arrows, and Liu Qianru continuously cast hand seals. What was astonishing was that, unlike Zhou Yang and the others, Liu Qianru cast hand seals while her Qi covered her entire body, blocking the water arrows. This woman was actually a high-level sorcerer.

"Liu Qianru, attract the Mystic Water over here, and let the water and fire neutralize each other. Otherwise, we won't be able to obtain these two Mystic Objects," Zhou Yang shouted.

Liu Qianru nodded and began to try to attract the Mystic Water towards Zhou Yang's Mystic Fire. With the combined efforts of the four, the two Mystic Objects finally began to approach each other.

The two ferocious Mystic Objects, water and fire, clashed, and the entire space was filled with mist, and strong winds howled due to the exchange of heat and cold.

Xu Feng practiced nearby, feeling his constitution strengthening, and he vaguely grasped something. In his bones, a slow-moving force was emerging.

Xu Feng clearly understood that this force was the Qi stored in his body. This made him extremely happy, as long as he could guide and control the Qi, he would reach the Fifth Rank.

Following the practice of the Dao Xuan Scripture, Xu Feng resisted the terrifying heat waves while continuously forming hand seals. Under this terrifying heat, Xu Feng felt his skin almost peeling off, making him very uncomfortable.

The two Mystic Objects continued to clash, and the ferocity of the water and fire caused the surroundings to become chaotic. Liu Qianru and Zhou Yang, along with the other two, watched the two Mystic Objects intently, feeling a deep respect for the power of Mystic Objects for the first time.

The clash between the two Mystic Objects lasted for a long time. As the flames and water arrows continuously shot out, the ferocity of the two Mystic Objects gradually decreased.

Seeing the two Mystic Objects gradually weakening, Zhou Yang held his breath, took the treasure from Zhao Bai, and gave Liu Qianru a nod. Liu Qianru nodded and took out a delicate treasure from her pocket, focusing on the Green Rock Mystic Water.

The treasure, a creation of powerful individuals, far exceeded the strength and value of ordinary items.

When the ferocity of the two Mystic Objects reached its lowest point, Zhou Yang shouted, "Liu Qianru, act now!"

As he shouted, Liu Qianru and Zhou Yang simultaneously rushed towards the two Mystic Objects, covering them with their treasures.

"Liu Qianru! Be careful!"

Wang Lu saw that although Liu Qianru had covered the Green Rock Mystic Water, there was a slight deviation, which made her movements hesitate. This mistake allowed a powerful force from the Mystic Water to burst out, hitting Liu Qianru.

"Spit..."

The powerful force instantly made Liu Qianru spit out a mouthful of blood, and she flew backward with the treasure in her hands.

This scene shocked Wang Lu and the others, as Liu Qianru was flying towards the cliff.

Xu Feng, who was practicing, was startled by Wang Lu's shout. As he opened his eyes, he saw Liu Qianru falling towards the cliff. Without thinking, Xu Feng reached out to grab Liu Qianru, and at the same time, grabbed the parachute Wang Lu had discarded.

Liu Qianru's soft hand was successfully grabbed by Xu Feng, but she did not stop; instead, she pulled Xu Feng down the cliff with her. This situation made Xu Feng's face change, and he cursed, as he was almost about to reach the Fifth Rank, but this incident caused him to fail.

"Liu Qianru, Xu Feng!"

Wang Lu and the others shouted in horror as the two fell off the cliff, wondering if they would survive.

"Ah!"

Liu Qianru, being a woman, couldn't help but close her eyes and scream as she fell, tightly hugging Xu Feng.

Although Xu Feng was tightly hugged by Liu Qianru, feeling her soft and tempting body, he had no time to think about it. He held Liu Qianru with one hand and pulled the simple parachute with the other.

With the help of the simple parachute, Xu Feng felt the speed of their descent slow down. Liu Qianru, feeling this, opened her eyes and saw Xu Feng holding the two simple parachutes, hugging him even tighter.

Seeing the blood on the corner of Liu Qianru's mouth, Xu Feng knew that the impact from the Green Rock Mystic Water had caused her significant harm. He reached out to hold her waist, not taking the time to savor the smoothness and elasticity, and said to Liu Qianru, "Bear with it a little longer, hold me tight."

After saying this, Xu Feng ignored Liu Qianru and focused on the cliff wall. The parachute was not professional, and although it could temporarily slow their descent, it wouldn't last long under the weight of two people.

Xu Feng's prediction was soon confirmed, as he heard the sound of the fabric tearing. This made Xu Feng's heart race, and he scanned the cliff wall. The cliff wall was extremely steep, with no place to stand.

The sound of tearing fabric continued, and Xu Feng looked up at the parachute, which was about to break. He was secretly worried, as if the parachute broke, they would surely die.

"Are we going to die?" Liu Qianru, weakened by the injury from the Green Rock Mystic Water, spoke weakly.

"Don't say that! You'll be fine," Xu Feng reassured her, though he had no confidence himself.

Liu Qianru smiled, her smile bright and beautiful, the blood at the corner of her mouth adding a seductive allure, making it easy to get lost in her beauty. "Hey! You're Xu Feng, right?"

"Damn..." Xu Feng was speechless, having known her for so long, this woman didn't even know his name.

"Hehe! You must be Xu Feng!" Liu Qianru still had the heart to laugh, looking at Xu Feng and saying, "Now I think you're a little handsome. Hehe, but you have to die with me."

"Uh!" Xu Feng didn't understand what this woman was thinking, and could only make up something to distract her, "I actually think I'm very handsome, so I try to avoid seeing my own face, as falling in love with myself is a bit weird."

Liu Qianru, seeing Xu Feng say such a shameless thing without changing his expression, admired his thick skin but suddenly felt Xu Feng's hand tighten around her waist and heard him shout, "Hold me tight!"

Before Liu Qianru could react, a tearing sound was heard, and the two parachutes finally broke. Xu Feng, however, fiercely threw the parachute and leaped towards the cliff, grabbing a green rock with his arm. The force was so great that Xu Feng's hand bled, but his body swayed a few times and stabilized, hanging on the rock.

Xu Feng panted and turned to Liu Qianru, saying, "I told you, we won't die!"

Seeing Xu Feng's bright smile, Liu Qianru suddenly felt that this young man, whom she had ignored for so long, indeed had a different quality, at least in such a dire situation, he could still find a way to survive.

Xu Feng struggled to climb onto the green rock and discovered a cave in this part of the cliff.

"Let's go in and check!" Xu Feng turned to Liu Qianru, but when he looked at her, he noticed a pool of blood on her chest, staining her white clothes red.

Xu Feng was shocked and recalled the moment he leaped, fearing that Liu Qianru had hit a sharp rock when he grabbed the green rock.

"Does it hurt?" Xu Feng asked Liu Qianru.

Liu Qianru shook her head, though her face was pale, she gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go to the cave first!"

Xu Feng nodded, picked up Liu Qianru, and carried her into the cave, placing her on a clean spot. Looking at the blood on her chest, he said to Liu Qianru, "I'll help you treat your wound."
