Swallowed by pure darkness, Chu Fan tried hard to restrain his thoughts and suppress the fear that kept rising in his heart.
At this moment, his eyes were completely useless, and his nose stuffed with cotton balls also caused him to temporarily lose his sense of smell. In addition to contact senses such as touch and taste, the only effective remote sense among the five senses was hearing.
.
Dong Dong...
Dong Dong...
"My heartbeat is so loud?"
However, there was silence all around, and all he could hear was his "dong-dong" heartbeat and heavy breathing.
He exhaled softly, trying his best to slow down his heartbeat.
Ear orifices refer to eight human acupoints located near the left and right ears.
In the "Zhenwu Quan Jing", in addition to the eight recognized ear acupoints, four other auxiliary acupoints must be penetrated.
In other words, Chu Fan must penetrate a total of twelve acupoints near the ears one by one before he can fully open the ear acupoints.
Once the ear acupoints are opened through practice, not only the energy of the whole body will greatly increase, but the hearing will also increase dramatically, which will improve the practitioner in all aspects.
At this time, as Chu Fan gradually calmed down and stabilized his emotions, his heartbeat and breathing also slowed down and no longer sounded so heavy.
Then he began to control the true energy in the body, flowing up along the meridians and hitting the left and right 'Ermen points' located in the ears.
puff...
In just a moment, with an inaudible sound, the left and right 'Ermen points' were penetrated.
The corners of Chu Fan's lips curled up, and he kept up his efforts, controlling the zhenqi to attack the left and right 'Tinggong acupoints' after the 'Ermen acupoint'.
The penetration of the left and right 'Tinggong acupoints' was a few breaths slower than the 'Ermen acupoints', but it was also very smooth and did not take much effort to complete.
The four acupuncture points were successfully penetrated, and Chu Fan became energetic.
But he also understood that this was not something to be overjoyed about. After all, he had just eaten a spiritual fruit like Zhu Guo, and his body was filled with true energy.
Coupled with the fact that I have basically mastered the training skills of the ear acupoints, I have achieved this moment in one fell swoop.
Instead of rushing to continue the attack, Chu Fan consolidated the four acupoints he had just penetrated, and at the same time, with the help of the special environment of the bottomless pit, he realized the changes brought about by the penetration of the four ear acupoints.
His ears moved slightly and he listened attentively.
The extremely silent environment at the moment gave him great convenience, and he soon felt the changes brought about by penetrating the four ear acupoints.
At this time, he could not only hear his breathing and heartbeat.
He could even faintly hear the sound of blood flowing in his blood vessels.
"wrong!"
Suddenly, his expression became serious and his ears twitched.
He suddenly discovered that the surroundings were not truly silent. He heard the slight vibration of insects flapping their wings not far away, and the soft sound of snakes rubbing against the ground...
"I heard it, I heard it!"
Although it was so vague and unreal, he really heard it.
At this moment, what enveloped him was no longer absolute darkness. In his ears, the surroundings suddenly became clear and vivid.
As he became aware of the surrounding environment, the fear of the unknown in his heart quickly faded, and was replaced by an unprecedented and wonderful experience.
"Hey...there's something approaching me!"
Chu Fan laughed. He was not afraid at all. Instead, he tried to use his hearing to analyze the creature approaching him.
At the same time, he put on a good posture and drummed up his energy.
call out...
Suddenly, a wind-breaking scream sounded in the cave.
Chu Fan seemed to have expected it, and punched out hard, hitting the object flying towards him and knocking it away instantly.
"My judgment was correct!" He was overjoyed, and then thought: "Judging from the size and strength, the one just now seemed to be some kind of rat! Hey, there's also..."
As soon as his ears moved, he heard that there seemed to be other creatures approaching him in the darkness.
While holding his breath and concentrating, while pumping up his energy, he patiently judged the opponent's position and guessed the opponent's category.
However, the creature that was close to him seemed to be very patient, and the two sides just ended up in a stalemate in the darkness.
"interesting!"
Chu Fan enjoyed the excitement of being both a hunter and a prey.
Such a challenge made him quickly familiar with the use of this ear acupoint, and the four ear acupoints he had previously penetrated also consolidated a lot.
After a while, a soft sound came into Chu Fan's ears.
Without any hesitation, he immediately kicked out with all his strength, and with a 'bang' sound, the entire thing that was attacking him was kicked away.
Succeeded twice in a row.
Especially this kind of victory in the battle against cave creatures in absolute darkness made him feel confident for a moment. The corners of his mouth were raised more and more, and a smile appeared on his face.
Later, as he became more and more experienced, his movements became smoother and smoother, and he successively knocked away seven more creatures that attacked him in the darkness.
"Nine of them..."
He was counting in his mind and breathing heavily.
Although the time was not long, he was already sweating profusely and panting due to the need to maintain a high level of alertness.
Realizing that his physical strength was almost exhausted, and at the same time, he was also very curious about the nine creatures he had hit in the dark, so he snapped his fingers and said: "Turn on the lights!"
Whoa...
In an instant, a soft mirror light dispelled the darkness and illuminated the cave brightly.
After squinting his eyes to adjust to the light, Chu Fan immediately looked at the ground, looking for the nine creatures he had hit.
"ah!?"
However, as soon as his eyes moved to the ground, he couldn't help but exclaimed.
It turned out that on the ground around him, there were dozens of corpses of creatures lying in random directions, including rats, snakes, bats, and all kinds of weird bugs.
After reacting, Chu Fan found it difficult to accept: "I...I missed so much?"
The Yuguang Mirror suspended in mid-air shook its body as if it was nodding.
It was obvious that the corpses all over the ground were the cave creatures that had just tried to attack Chu Fan in the darkness. Chu Fan noticed and killed nine of them.
As for the others, they were all hidden from Chu Fan's perception, but at the moment when they were about to hurt Chu Fan, they were secretly solved by Yuguang Jing.
Squatting on the ground and looking at the corpses all over the ground, Chu Fan was still a little in disbelief: "Did I really miss so many? But I obviously only heard the sounds of nine creatures!"
Yu Guangjing flashed the light at this moment, and moved nine creatures whose bones and tendons were broken by Qi Jin in front of Chu Fan.
The nine creatures that Chu Fan successfully killed with his hearing were all larger creatures without exception. As for the tiny insects on the ground, they were all secretly controlled by the Yuguang Mirror.
"No wonder I heard that several sects near the Bottomless Cave lost a lot of manpower trying to explore the Bottomless Cave. This cave is really dangerous!"
Staring at the strange and colorful insect corpses on the ground, Chu Fan was frightened for a while.
The effect of practicing the ear acupoints in the bottomless pit was indescribable. In just a short while, he felt that he had gained a lot of experience in using the ear acupoints.
But the danger is also obvious.
If there hadn't been a Yuguang Mirror scanning for him in the dark, he would probably be a stinking corpse by now...
