Ling Chen smiled bitterly, could this be a joke God deliberately played on him?
When I was in despair, I gave myself a hope, but this hope was not as satisfying as despair.
This cliff is extremely steep. No matter what choice he makes, the word will always be the same - death!
The most terrible thing is that as long as Ling Chen moves a little now, the pain in his body will instantly spread throughout his body.
The black gauze boy's previous kick hit Ling Chen's dantian. This kick directly made Ling Chen's already weak body even weaker.
After taking a deep breath, Ling Chen started coughing. The oppressive feeling coming from his lungs made him feel uncomfortable.
In desperation, Ling Chen could only lie quietly on this branch, which was not strong, and stared at the cliff wall in trance.
If my weight had been that much heavier, I'm afraid the branch would have been crushed, and I would have fallen to the bottom of the cliff and died.
But now, even if he doesn't die, he has no chance of living and can only starve to death here.
Thinking about his experiences in the past ten years, his heart felt stinging.
Before the age of six, his life was like a paradise on earth, but in the three years from the age of seven to ten, God seemed to have made a joke on himself, allowing him to live a life that was more torturous than hell for three years.
In the past three years, there has not been a day that he did not spend in struggle!
He was neglected by family, hurt by friendship, and even people younger than him dared to bully him.
Although he fought desperately every time, there was only one result in the end, and that was injury!
All this is just because I am a waste, a waste who started practicing swordsmanship at the age of six and only reached the second level swordsman level in four years!
Sometimes, even he looks down on himself.
But so what?
Thinking of all this, Ling Chen's heart felt stinging.
The sky gradually darkened, and soon night fell on the cliff.
Looking at the dots of cold stars in the night sky, Ling Chen thought to himself: Ling'er must be very anxious if he can't find me, ugh...
…
Outside the side door of Lingwu Academy leading to the back mountain, a blue figure appeared. Ruo Ling looked at the gradually darkening back mountain with a pretty face and a slightly anxious look, feeling anxious.
She searched for Ling Chen in the back mountain for a long time, so she thought Ling Chen had returned to Lingwu Academy by himself, so she rushed back alone.
But she later asked several disciples who knew Ling Chen, and they all said they had not seen Ling Chen, which made Ruo Ling a little worried.
If it weren't for the explicit rules of the academy, Ruo Ling would have gone to the courtyard where Ling Chen was locked up to see what was going on.
"Is something going to happen to Brother Ling Chen? Probably not. Although Brother Ling Chen's cultivation level is very low, he should be very familiar with the back mountain area."
"But...why do I always feel like something bad is going to happen?"
Ruo Ling stood there alone, talking to himself, pacing back and forth, waiting for Ling Chen to appear.
Time passed quietly, and Ruo Ling waited until Yueshang Meishao Academy closed its doors before returning to Lingwu Academy with a heavy heart.
This night, if Ling** is still awake...
When Ling Chen woke up again, he was woken up by the coldness coming from the cliff.
He was only wearing a white gown. Although it was not cold during the day, it was extremely cold on the cliff at night.
"Hey... why is it so cold?"
Ling Chen shook his swollen head and whispered softly.
If it continues like this, even if it doesn't starve to death, it will be killed by the alternating hot and cold temperatures.
"No, I have to think of a way quickly. Hey... what is that?"
Suddenly, Ling Chen accidentally caught a glimpse of a faint light on the cliff not far away.
Although this light is very weak, it is still very eye-catching in this dark night.
After a visual inspection of the distance, the bright light was about five or six feet away from Ling Chen's current position, and through the faint light, Ling Chen discovered that the bright light seemed to be emanating from the cave.
Feeling happy in his heart, Ling Chen ignored the pain coming from his body and carefully climbed up from the branch.
Although it was only five or six feet away, the cliff was extremely steep, and Ling Chen was seriously injured, so every step he took felt very difficult.
Fortunately, the light was almost at the same height as the pine tree protruding from the cliff, otherwise Ling Chen would not be able to climb over in his current condition.
Fortunately, there were some grass and some low shrubs that could be used for climbing around, so even though the cliff was steep, Ling Chen was still moving carefully.
Time passed little by little, and Ling Chen was getting closer and closer to the bright light, but his physical strength was about to be exhausted. His entire clothes were soaked with sweat. He had not had a drop of water all day long and he didn't have much strength anymore.
The closer he got to the bright light, the more clearly Ling Chen could feel a faint spiritual energy emanating from the bright hole.
So every time he moved a certain distance, Ling Chen had to stop and take a few deep breaths.
Half an hour later, when Ling Chen stood at the entrance of the cave that was emitting light, he couldn't help but stay where he was.
It turns out that this bright light is emitted by a huge luminous pearl. This luminous pearl is embedded on both sides of the cave and seems to be used for lighting.
This could also explain why he didn't see any bright light during the day.
The entrance to the cave was very secret, half covered by weeds and shrubs on all sides. It was almost invisible from the outside because the entire entrance was only about four feet long. Ling Chen had crawled in just now, otherwise he would not have been able to get in at all.
But as soon as they entered the cave, they found that there was a different world inside.
The entire cave was several meters high. Ling Chen stood in the cave and looked into the depths of the cave, his eyes full of anticipation. His intuition told him that this cave must have a shocking surprise waiting for him.
Walking along the cave, the further you go, the wider your view becomes, and the entire interior of the cave is illuminated by the luminous pearls inlaid on both walls of the cave.
A faint spiritual energy of heaven and earth floated out from inside. Ling Chen couldn't help but take two deep breaths, and suddenly felt relaxed and happy.
"The aura here is richer than the training place of Lingwu Academy. If you can practice here, you will get twice the result with half the effort."
Ling Chen felt joyful in his heart, completely forgetting the fact that he couldn't practice at all.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is an important innate condition for a warrior to practice.
The warrior breathes in the spiritual energy between heaven and earth and uses it for his own use. During the inhalation and exhalation, the spiritual energy flows and gathers in the warrior's body through special meridians. When the cultivation level reaches the ninth level of swordsman, the spiritual energy in the warrior's body will form a mass of gas.
It helps practitioners successfully break through to the realm of swordsmen.
Before reaching the ninth level of swordsmanship, the spiritual energy in a cultivator's body only exists as a free flow of air.
After walking about a hundred meters, the scene in front of Ling Chen suddenly changed!
