Wind Devouring The World - C95
“Seismic …”
When Ji Feng first saw these ghosts through the gap in the Geng Dan Soul Pearl, he was startled. Then, his eyes widened as he saw those ghosts flying out of the gap like moths into a flame, towards the suction vortex that was created by his Soul Pearl. Even though their bodies were much larger than the suction force from the whirlpool, they had no way of resisting it. They directly entered the soul pearl through the whirlpool, becoming the nourishment of the soul pearl.
After they were sucked into the vortex, they were also sucked into the vortex. Unlike the previous group of people, they had no resistance at all, but they struggled to come up, even though their expansion was futile. When the three of them were sucked into the soul orb, half of Geng Dan’s soul orb disappeared.
Not long after, the other half disappeared again. At this moment, Ji Feng, who had been staring at the scene, finally saw the battered Geng Dan. Geng Dan wasn’t attracted to the gravitational whirlpool in the first place, and when he saw that his soul pearl was only a sixth of its original size, his expression turned ugly.
Geng Dan’s unsightly expression was quickly replaced by fear because he could feel an irresistible suction force from the whirlpool. Despite this, he still displayed a powerful strength. He began to spin in reverse to resist the suction of the vortex. His reaction was timely, just as he was about to enter the monsoon soul orb, his spinning speed was barely equal to the speed of the soul orb, and he took the chance to escape from the soul orb as well, flying towards his own soul orb which was not even one sixth of its original speed, a blue light appeared in his eyes, after using the blue light on the remaining soul orb, the remaining part of the soul orb immediately started to collapse.
As the soul orbs collapsed, Geng Dan also flew towards them. By the time he flew up to the front, the remaining portion of his soul orb had already formed a new soul orb, but it was much smaller than before. It was only the size of a glass orb, and it was the size of a small one at that. Geng Dan, who was flying in front of him, stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at where Ji Feng’s consciousness was. Ji Feng could see the shock on his face.
At this moment, Geng Dan spoke up, “Bonan, you’ve won. As long as you hand over my soul orb, we can forget about any matters between us.”
Hearing Geng Dan’s words, Ji Feng smiled. He wanted to say something, but realized that he was only a mass of consciousness now, not his original soul body. He immediately understood that his understanding of soul orbs, souls, and consciousness was almost nil, and there was still a long way to go.
Seeing that Ji Feng had remained silent, Geng Dan was enraged, “Don’t think that you can swallow me just because my soul bead has been heavily injured, I just don’t want to die.”
Despite Geng Dan’s tough tone, Ji Feng could still hear the fear in Geng Dan’s words. Ji Feng had a lot of experience, so he was naturally not scared by Geng Dan’s words. Of course, he knew that Geng Dan still had some tricks up his sleeve, but these tricks weren’t enough for him to escape from here.
At that moment, Ji Feng felt the ground beneath his feet shake and he immediately withdrew his attention from his sea of consciousness. He immediately realized that it really was an earthquake. His face immediately turned bitter as he thought to himself, ‘I’m not that unlucky right?’
Because he was underground, the consequences of the earthquake were very serious. Nevertheless, Monsoon did not intend to give up. Therefore, he stepped out of the stone room and ran in the direction he had come from according to his memories. Dust and broken stones fell from the walls as the sound of falling came one after another. According to his memory, Ji Feng knew that the ground was flat along the way, so he opened his arms and ran.
Due to the speed at which he was running, the range of his movements were not small. The pus on the part of his body where he was exercising started to crack and the pus from his body also started to gush out. His clothes were soon soaked with pus.
Not long after, the wind hit the rock wall and he fell backwards. His head was in a daze and hot liquid was spewing out of his nose. Ji Feng endured the pain and slowly got up. Feeling the ground trembling, he immediately changed his direction and continued running. When he hit the stone wall, he knew that he had arrived at the fork in the road. Ji Feng had no confidence that he could make it out of this place. The reason he did this was because he didn’t want to give up.
He looked at the ceiling and saw pieces of broken rocks falling to the ground, and many of them even fell onto the table. She was not afraid. On the contrary, a look of relief appeared on her face. If this place had collapsed because of the earthquake, she would not have been humiliated. However, there was a deep regret in her heart for her death just like that. The person that had always been on her mind did not appear at the end of her life. Then it occurred to her that the monsoon might have been murdered, and though Kumar had said he would be his deputy, she did not believe him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have encountered such a situation. However, she then recalled that she and Ji Feng could die in the same place. Based on the strangeness of this place, their souls should be able to meet again. At that time, they would be together forever. At that time, she would no longer be a Holy Maiden. There was no need for her to follow those invisible rules.
The monsoon, who was running with all his might in the dark, naturally did not know what future the earthquake here had in mind. He was only running tirelessly. Fortunately, he clearly remembered the time he had come. Although there was no light here, the road here was not a maze. It was still very simple. He believed that as long as he had the time, he would be able to return to the surface.
At this moment, Geng Dan’s voice resounded in his sea of consciousness, “Bonan, do you feel the earthquake now?”
Hearing his words, Ji Feng immediately stopped and submerged his consciousness into his sea of consciousness. He saw that Geng Dan’s little soul bead had already left the vicinity of his whirlpool. As there was no energy to absorb, the suction vortex gradually slowed down. It was only a matter of time before it disappeared.
Ji Feng knew that it would be very difficult to leave this place with his own power. Without mentioning anything else, just the ten thousand steps would be enough for him to climb for a while. With his current condition, even if he was allowed to go up, he would probably die from exhaustion. More likely, he would have been buried by the collapse caused by the earthquake. Even if he hadn’t been stoned to death, he would have died of hunger and thirst. After the previous people had died, their souls hadn’t dissipated because of the Geng Dan Soul Pearl’s existence. Now, not only had Geng Dan’s soul orb shrunk in size, it was also in his sea of consciousness. In other words, if he died, he would truly die. It would be impossible for his soul to survive.
Moreover, since Geng Dan had mentioned the earthquake, it proved that the earthquake wasn’t a natural phenomenon, but was caused by his previous arrangement.
Since he didn’t know how to speak in the sea of consciousness, he placed his consciousness back and spoke directly through his mouth. This was one of his attempts, he had to find a way to communicate with them, otherwise, even if Geng Dan had a way to get him out of here safely, it wouldn’t help. Because his silence would cause Geng Dan to think that Geng Ken didn’t agree and would only want to die together with him.
