Emperor of the Human Way Chapter 20

At this moment, Zhong Yue couldn’t feel anything. All his senses were sealed and even the pores of his skin were tightly closed. Not even a shred of mind power leaked out, no body power leaked out, and his soul was also firm like it never had been before!

The heart demons produced by his fall were all refined, letting him enter into a kind of unprecedented profoundness.

Time seemed to still, then seemed to stretch infinitely long, extending to the end of times.

This was precisely the s.p.a.ce between life and death. Pa.s.sing through the great dread and the great terror, there was an unprecedented tranquility, unprecedented degree of mind focus. It was the unprecedented reaction of exceeding one’s limits!

The so-called extreme limit reaction was precisely his body’s every organ, every shred of mind and soul, operating at speeds reaching an extreme frequency. It created a fantastic sensation.

Imagine this, like for example at some instant, the speed at which your eyes could capture the motion of moving object were ten times that of ordinary people. You would also feel that the moving objects were ten times slower than usual.

For example, if during an instant your thoughts were ten times faster than normal, you would also feel time slow down!

And if your body, mind, and soul all entered this extreme limit reaction, then if you wanted to release strength, you could burst a strength far higher than before, and if you wanted to release your mind power, your mind power would also be powerful to an unprecedented degree!

If you wanted to cultivate, the speed of cultivation would also be incomparably fast and violent!

Zhong Yue’s body continuously drew medicinal power form the three Feather Spirit Dan pills, and this medicinal power was madly transforming into mind power and moistening his soul. It made the Sovereign Sui shaped from his soul taller and more imposing!

Before, he had never even dared to imagine this speed at which he was absorbing medicinal power and transforming it into cultivation!

But now, it became reality!

Zhong Yue couldn’t know how much time had past after jumping down from the mountain cliff. In this kind of extreme limit reaction, his own reflexes were also fast to the extreme, and time had become too slow for him.

An unknown amount of time later, Xin Huo’s voice suddenly came: "Explode-"

Zhong Yue came back to his senses and opened his eyes. The extreme limit reaction was about to vanish, and he discovered that the speed of his fall was already almost difficult to imagine. He was about to reach the ravine’s bottom!

With this kind of falling speed, his body would be crushed and his bones broken to pieces even if he had wings!

"Hu-"

In the instant he opened his eyes, he had already fallen just over the treetops at the bottom of the ravine. The patches of pine trees towered high, the tall trunks reaching a height over a hundred feet. This distance of a hundred feet would be gone in a flash, and he would probably hit the ground in the time it took to blink. His whole person would be smashed into pulp.

Xin Huo’s voice also couldn’t refrain a trace of anxiety: "Quick! Explode your reserve of body energy, mind, and soul in a split second, explode them overbearingly, or you’ll die without a doubt!"

"Jiao Dragon Body Coiling!"

Zhong Yue shouted explosively. "Zi Zi La La" Harsh ear-grating sounds came, thunder surged and condensated itself into a Jiao dragon coiling around Zhong Yue’s body in less than a flash. It opened its mouth and raised its claws, looking exceptionally evil!

"Visualize Sovereign Sui!"

"Borrow thunder and soar across the sky!"

Zhong Yue’s roar and the dragon cry merged chaotically with the thunderclaps. The dragon coiling around his body moved and s.h.i.+fted. His soul broke out of his body and shaped an image of Sovereign Sui a thousand feet tall that increased the Jiao dragon’s power. Lightning flashes and thunder rolls appeared amidst the forest at the bottom of the ravine, and trees toppled one after another from the shock. It was as if a Jiao dragon with thunderbolts twining all over its body was wreaking havoc inside the forest!

Where this Jiao dragon went the mountain crumbled and the earth cracked, while forests collapsed!

Boom!

Zhong Yue’s Jiao dragon wrapped around his body, and he rode thunder across the sky, crossing a thousand feet in an instant, then crashed to the ground.

Mud and rubble flew out everywhere as a big pit was created. Zhong Yue knelt on one knee, both hands supported on the ground, and frizzling thunderbolts spilled over from his body’s surface and drilled themselves in the ground, frying the earth scorched black.

"I survived…"

Zhong Yue stood up, but suddenly his eyes were dizzy, and fierce pain filled each and every of his four limbs and hundred bones. It seemed like his whole body was about to be torn in pieces. His soul also felt like it was about to explode in pieces, and his body couldn’t help but sway, about to pa.s.s out.

Inside his body, the medicinal power from the three Feather Spirit Dan pills had unexpectedly been consumed clean in this short instant. He sensed that his body was empty, while the stimulated soul and mind were still draining energy away from his body!

This time he’d burst out almost every shred of soul power, mind power, and body energy he had!

"Take three Feather Spirit Dan pills again!"

Xin Huo’s voice came to him: "Your mind is now in a state of unprecedented excitation, your body can’t support this burden. You need Feather Spirit Dan to replenish your energy, or else your body will be dug hollow in a short instant, then you’ll die."

Zhong Yue immediately took out three Feather Spirit Dan pills and swallowed them down. He had already heard of the situation Xin Huo was talking about. The tribe had a woman who had a child, and when they met an earthquake their house crumbled and collapsed. A thousand pounds beam was about to crush her child, but the woman actually crossed the distance in one step and propped this beam up, saving her child’s life!

The child was unharmed, but after propping the thousand pounds beam the woman had died very quickly. There was no trace of injury on her body. It was probably her maternal instinct bursting her into the extreme limit reaction, and her body had been used up empty. She didn’t have Feather Spirit Dan pills or this kind of spirit pills and wonder herbs to replenish her, hence she had exhausted her energy and died.

Right now his situation was similar to that situation back then, but fortunately he had enough Feather Spirit Dan pills and he was able to supplement his body’s consumption.

After the Feather Spirit Dan pills went into his belly, he immediately felt the abundant energy from the Feather Spirit Dan replenish his body energy at flying speed, moistening mind and soul. His sea of consciousness was growing and expending wildly!

When the medicinal power of the Feather Spirit Dan was exhausted, his sea of consciousness had grown to a surface of almost ten acres, while his mind power had almost doubled!

"In so little time, the mind power became so much stronger?"

Zhong Yue was stunned. From the time he’d jumped from the cliff to now, all in all it had been a stick of incense’s time at the very most, but unexpectedly he had used up six Feather Spirit Dan pills, and his mind power had also grown many times!

"If the consumption continues to be so fast, I’m afraid the nine hundred Feather Spirit Dan pills will only be able to persist for a month…"

Originally he had thought nine hundred Feather Spirit Dan pills were a fortune vast like the sky, but now it looked like he was still too naive. Probably no amount of Feather Spirit Dan was enough to deal with the overbearing cultivation methods used by Xin Huo!

"Now, climb back on the clifftop and jump down again."

Xin Huo said deeply: "Your body isn’t bad, it wasn’t injured unexpectedly. So this time you used up six Feather Spirit Dan pills. This time carry a big rock when you jump down. En, this rock will do, carry this rock on your back when you climb up then jump down with it!"

Zhong Yue stared blankly at the piece of mountain boulder in front of him. It was a thousand pound at the very least and it was twice bigger than himself!

Even climbing this steep cliff with this boulder on his back would be an incomparably difficult task, to say nothing of jumping down with it.

"Zhong kid, cliff jumping is practice for your explosiveness, while cliff climbing is training for your control. Carry this rock and visualize the Jiao dragon. Fasten the dragon claws to the cliff and climb up. Control the dragon claws’ strength and harmonize the dragon body with your own body, it’s helpful in making you master every ounce of power you have."

Zhong Yue nodded and immediately used his mind power to shape a Jiao dragon. This time he visualized the Jiao dragon much faster than before, and his reaction speed was even faster comparatively.

The Jiao dragon coiled around his body. Zhong Yue carried the rock on his back and came to the foot of the cliff. When he raised his head he saw that the clouds were thick and the cliff tall. He couldn’t see the top of it.

Crack. Dragon claws dug into the cliff’s rocky wall using light strength, but the rock collapsed to pieces. Zhong Yue frowned faintly: "Xin Huo isn’t wrong, right now my control is indeed bad, there’s no sense of coordination. It can only count as being able to control my power if the visualized Jiao dragon can use just as much strength as I want it to, and apply that force wherever I want it to."

He calmed down, then carefully sensed and a.n.a.lyzed the circulation of the Jiao Dragon Body Coiling. Only after a long while did Zhong Yue move his body again, visualizing a Jiao dragon and climbing towards the clifftop while carrying the thousand pounds rock on his back.

The Jiao dragon twined around his body, its claws digging into the cliff, and under Zhong Yue’s manipulation it climbed up step by step.

This kind of climbing was riddled with dangers. A little carelessness would crush the mountain rocks. Zhong Yue encountered danger several times in a row, almost falling down while mid-cliff.

Fortunatly the Jiao dragon had four claws and the other three claws were still fastened to the cliff. Only thanks to this he could stay on the cliff and not fall, but it was still shockingly dangerous.

Through the continuous climbing he became more and more familiar with the control of his visualized Jiao dragon, and became more and more subtle in managing his strength. The dangers also became less and less as he neared closer to the clifftop.

Various mountain beasts neighed at the Horse Drinking Terrace on top of the cliff as they came to drink from the lake. A young girl dressed in red pulled up her clothes and took her shoes off as she sank her feet in the lake. Her feet swung and splashed snow bright water ripple flowers.

"Tao Tao, you said that Zhong Yue came here?"

A black-clothed young girl stepped on the waves and moved nimbly a she walked on the lake’s surface: "Where is he?"

The red-clothed girl smiled as brightly as a suns.h.i.+ne: "I saw him climb to the Horse Drinking Terrace, but I don’t see where he’s hiding. Strange, this Horse Drinking Terrace isn’t big, where could he have gone?"

The black-clothed girl stopped her steps, a faint frown on her forehead and eyebrows. Water surged in waves at her feet and the back of a great fish emerged. Just the fish’s back was forty to fifty feet long. It was impressively a great fish shaped by mind power!

"The male yard’s Zhong Yue could actually meet my Dual Flight of Fish and Goose. He’s not a bad opponent."

The black-clothed girl’s face was cold and faint as she said in a light voice: "But his courage is a bit too small, he unexpectedly went into hiding. He doesn’t have a bit of a man’s mettle and attracts contempt. Tao Tao, let’s go, since he doesn’t dare to come out…"

Her voice didn’t even fall when she suddenly turned and looked at the clifftop. A Jiao head fierce and sinister emerged from below the cliff. The dragon claws probed and fastened on the cliff’s border. The Jiao dragon was wrapped around Zhong Yue’s body as he climbed up to the Horse Drinking Terrace carrying a thousand pounds rock on his back. He immediately put the rock down and panted heavily.

The two young women looked at him and saw that this young man with his chest bare and sweat covering his body like crystalline drops. His skin was stretched taunt over his muscles, and the the sweat followed the lines of his skin and muscles as it flowed down. Although he was resting, his whole body radiated a kind of wild aura.

"The main actor is on stage, apprentice sister, now it’s all in your hands right?" The red-clothed girl laughed like a silver bell.

Zhong Yue followed the voice and saw the two girls. He couldn’t help stare a little: "Those two senior apprentice sisters seem a little familiar…"

The red-clothed young woman laughed with a puchi and said: "Brother apprentice Zhong, back then I was singing on the small boat, you couldn’t see me bathing naked."

"Is sister apprentice Tao insinuating that he saw me naked during my bath?"

The black-clothed young woman said with an annoyed expression: "At most he saw my shoulders, he didn’t even see my chest."

Zhong Yue’s expression became black and secretly said "not good" in his heart: "It’s Yu Feiyan and Tao Dai’er from the female residence! How do they I’m the one from the other night? Right, it must be apprentice sister Ting who sold me out!"
