Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 43: Snow reflects divine power

Dang!

A melodious bell rang in the air. At the moment when Su Yun collided with the Third Ancestor Ape, the violent force in the Ape's staff directly overwhelmed his power.

Su Yun thought he was going to be smashed into meat paste by the staff, but with the sound of the bell, he felt the overwhelming force being swiftly absorbed by the Huang Zhong.

The power of the Ape's strike was huge, but most of it was absorbed by the Huang Zhong, as if he had hit the Huang Zhong with his staff.

Even so, Su Yun couldn't resist the divine power and was swept away by the staff!

His buttocks were facing backward, and his hands and feet were in front as he flew into the sky. The strength of the Third Ancestor Ape was evident!

But at the moment when Su Yun was swept away, a white ape brand suddenly leaped out of the copper hoop on the Third Ancestor Ape's staff, and with a move called "White Ape Hanging on a Tree," it hooked onto Su Yun's right foot!

The power of the White Ape Hanging on a Tree erupted, and Su Yun's upward momentum suddenly turned into a downward one. He was smashed into the snow, and the Huang Zhong rang out again!

At the moment when the first white ape leaped out of the staff, the second white ape followed suit. Just as Su Yun bounced up from the snow, the white ape used a move called "Ancient River Crossing" and punched him in the face.

Dang!

The Huang Zhong rang out again, and Su Yun was hit and spun like a top in the air!

The second white ape landed, and the third white ape had already reached Su Yun's position. With a move called "Well Bucket Moon," it hooked onto the boy's neck, turned around, and swung its staff down!

The fourth white ape caught the third white ape's attack, and with a move called "Old Ape Embracing the Bell," it raised its fists and smashed Su Yun's forehead.

The fifth white ape charged diagonally, and Su Yun tumbled in the snow. The white ape used a move called "Capturing the Heart Ape" and pushed him forward by pressing his chest!

Crack!

The white ape pressed against his chest and broke an old tree in the snow. Then it leaped up, and the sixth white ape charged forward. With a move called "Ape Master Bouncing the Sword," all its strength gathered in its right fist, and when it was about to hit Su Yun, all the qi and blood rushed to its index finger, and it shot out!

Dang!

The Huang Zhong rang out loudly, and Su Yun was like a rag doll filled with rags, tumbling and flailing his limbs, flying out six or seven zhang away.

From his hard collision with the Third Ancestor Ape in the air, to his defeat by the Ape's divine power, to the Ape's spirit technique of the staff turning into six white apes attacking him in a single breath, Su Yun had already suffered seven attacks and was thrown more than ten zhang away without any ability to fight back!

The Third Ancestor Ape leaped forward, and with a swing of his staff in the snow, the six white apes flew up one after another with the movement of his staff. With a few crisp sounds, they returned to the copper hoop of the staff, turning into white ape brands.

The Third Ancestor Ape swung his staff and smashed it down at Su Yun in the snow, but at this moment, Su Yun, who seemed to have lost his defensive ability, suddenly moved like a dragon swimming, wandering in the snow, as if he had plunged into the mud, silent but extremely agile.

"Thank you, Third Ancestor Ape!"Su Yun stepped back and walked through the snow, laughing: "I have figured out how to use the spiritual techniques!"

The third ancestor of the apes missed his strike, and another white ape jumped out, pouncing towards Su Yun. At that moment, a yellow bell spun on top of Su Yun's head, and another white ape jumped out.

The two white apes met in mid-air and fought!

The white ape technique used by the third ancestor of the apes was a fixed move from the Ape King's Decision, while Su Yun's white ape technique was the scattered hand technique of the Ape King's Decision. Taking advantage of the opponent's slowness, Su Yun used half a move to capture the white ape's head and twisted it hard!

The white ape of the third ancestor of the apes burst open with a bang, turning into a burst of blood and disappearing.

When the third ancestor of the apes was cultivating the Ape King's Decision, he probably did not receive guidance from a famous teacher like Qiu Shuijing, but rather explored how to cultivate it alone, leading to his current achievements.

In terms of adaptability, he was far inferior to Su Yun and did not even know that the Ape King's Decision could be split into thirty-six scattered hand techniques.

The second white ape jumped out from the third ancestor of the apes' staff, but Su Yun's yellow bell also had a second white ape flying out, which was faster than the third ancestor of the apes.

The two white apes were still using the complete move of the Ape King's Decision and scattered hand technique, respectively. In an instant, the white ape's imprint of the third ancestor of the apes was completely torn apart by Su Yun's white ape.

The third ancestor of the apes swung his staff and rushed towards Su Yun, while Su Yun's white apes, transformed from his blood and energy seals, pounced towards the third ancestor of the apes. Su Yun controlled the six white apes and used the six scattered hand techniques in an orderly manner.

These white apes transformed from his blood and energy seals seemed to be connected to his mind, and could attack according to his will.

The difficulty lay in the fact that multitasking was already difficult, but controlling six white apes to attack and cooperate at the same time was even more difficult. Su Yun had to do this, and it was incredibly challenging.

The third ancestor of the apes was extremely powerful, constantly howling, and using his staff to strike, poke, point, and hit. One hit was enough to directly turn a white ape into blood and energy.

Su Yun immediately felt his blood and energy cultivation drop sharply, and his vision darkened. He decisively pointed his finger towards the sky, and the immortal rope flew out of his bag, carrying him into the sky.

The third ancestor of the apes shattered all of the white apes and turned them into blood and energy, but when he looked up, he saw Su Yun agilely climbing up the rope, disappearing into the clouds.

The third ancestor of the apes was about to pursue him, but suddenly his vision also darkened. The wounds he had sustained from the fight with the giant demon earlier burst open again, causing him to lose even more blood and energy. Su Yun had also shattered his six white apes, causing his blood and energy to suffer even more.

"This little devil is ruthless and killed so many of my tribe. I cannot let him go like this!"

The third ancestor of the apes sat cross-legged, activating the Immortal Ape's Cultivation Technique, inhaling and exhaling spiritual energy, and absorbing the essence of the sun to temporarily suppress his injuries.

After reaching the Nascent Soul realm, one needed to switch to a new cultivation technique and abandon the old foundational technique. However, the third ancestor of the apes lived in a rural area and was in a place like the Tian Shi Yuan, where poor and wicked people were rampant. Naturally, no one was willing to teach him.He didn't have any follow-up techniques, so he could only continue to cultivate the Xian Yuan Qi Cultivation manual. Even his Spiritual Powers were something he had explored on his own, not a legitimate technique from the official teachings.

It was precisely because of this that Su Yun could see through the usage of his opponent's Spiritual Powers with just one glance, and even learned to use them to deal with him.

Therefore, neither of them had genuine Spiritual Powers.

If one wanted to cultivate genuine Spiritual Powers, they would have to enter the official teachings and seek guidance from renowned teachers after class, and it would take several years of practice to fully comprehend it.

Su Yun walked on the Immortal Rope in the clouds, covering a distance of one rope length, and then slid down the rope. He leaped like a Spirit Ape, appearing and disappearing in the snowy forest as he rapidly approached the Tian Shi Yuan relay station.

"I wonder if Second Brother and the others have already arrived at the relay station?" he silently thought to himself.

As the sun gradually moved to the zenith, the snowy landscape became even more dazzling in the sunlight.

Hua Hu led three little children through the snowy terrain. The surface of the snow had formed a layer of ice, which made a crunching sound when they stepped on it.

They had traveled at night, feeling quite fearful, but fortunately they did not encounter any other dangers on the way.

The four fox demons, who had transformed into children, were tired and hungry from walking through the snow from night till now. Fortunately, there were wild rabbits and mice in the snow, which they could eat to fill their stomachs.

At noon, the snow layer was softened by the sunlight, but it became even colder. Their shoes were filled with cold snow water, and they did not warm up even after walking for a long time.

In the afternoon, the sun lost its warmth, and their shoes became even colder. The four little children wrapped themselves tightly in their clothes as they walked around a mountain. For some unknown reason, there was no snow on the mountain, and the grass and trees were still lush, but the mountaintop was bare.

After they passed this mountain, they saw the relay station of Tian Shi Yuan in front of them, with its white walls and blue tiles. Outside the relay station was a long corridor that only protected against rain, but not wind. They had to walk further to see the houses where they could stay, but they were not very big, only enough to accommodate about ten people.

The four little children walked with difficulty towards the relay station. Under the corridor of the relay station, there was a mountain path about five or six zhang wide that led somewhere unknown. There was no snow on the mountain path, and it was paved with slate, with huge claw prints on it.

At this moment, they heard a familiar voice: "Second Brother."

Hua Hu trembled and turned around to see Su Yun walking towards them against the sunset and the cold wind blowing from the valley. There were red ice crystals formed from frozen blood hanging on his body, and his newly changed clothes were also torn in many places.

But his steps were still very steady, his pace was still very fast, and his gaze was still sharp.

"Little Yun Ge is still alive!"

Qing Qiuyue ran towards Su Yun, crying and hugging his thigh. Hu Buping and Li Xiaofan also ran over, hugging his other thigh and crying, "We all thought you were dead. No one dared to speak on the way!"

Su Yun rubbed their hats with his palm, smiling as he looked at Hua Hu under the corridor, "Second Brother, I'm fine."

Hua Hu turned his head to wipe away his tears and smiled, "I knew you would make it alive. You're a man of your word, even if you die, you will turn into a Spiritual Being and come back!"The three little ones from Qing Qiuyue finally stabilized their emotions and stopped crying. Su Yun gathered them and walked into the corridor. Looking along the mountain path, he saw that the path was laid out from a snowy mountain and extended far away like a dragon or python crawling on the mountain.

On the other side of the mountain path, it passed through several large mountains.

The four little demon children had already run to the front of the house. Su Yun hurriedly caught up and saw several old soldiers gathered around a fire pit, leaning against the wall with long spears that were one or two meters long.

They were wearing thick coats, with large palms covered in calluses, faces reddened from either the cold wind or the fire, giving off an unhealthy red color.

Su Yun carefully looked and saw bloodstains on the spearheads.

They guarded the post station of Tianshiyuan. Whenever it was night, they had to be on guard against danger. Therefore, the spears were inevitably stained with blood.

"Going to Shuofang City?"

One of the old soldiers raised his head, glanced at them, and spoke with a deep voice and the unique accent of Shuofang, "Four half-tickets and one full ticket. Half-ticket ten coins, full ticket twenty coins. A total of sixty coins."

His gaze fell on Su Yun, and his eyebrows raised, apparently noticing the bloodstains on Su Yun's body.

"So expensive!" Su Yun felt a little dizzy, not knowing if it was because he had exhausted his vitality in the fight with the Third Ancestor Ape, or if he was scared by the price. He quickly regained his composure.

This was almost half of their property, but he still took out his money bag and counted out sixty five-zhu coins.

Qing Qiuyue looked up and asked, "Uncle, can we go without paying?"

The old soldier took his gaze back from Su Yun and shook his head, "If you don't pay, you have to walk. With your short arms and legs, it will take half a month to walk to Shuofang. Moreover, even if one of you is a spiritualist, you will definitely not be able to survive the no man's land! But if you buy a ticket, you can arrive in Shuofang at night."

"Spiritualist?" Hua Hu and the others were stunned and turned to look at Su Yun.

Su Yun smiled slightly, his blood and qi circulating, and the big yellow bell above his head slowly appeared. He explained, "I also just discovered not long ago that I had become a spiritualist three years ago."

Lazy Pig: I also discovered when looking in the mirror that pigs can be so handsome! It must look good on the table during the New Year!
