Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 10 – Wild and unrestrained

The vast sea of clouds stretches endlessly, unpredictable like the changing clouds and the grey dogs.

Amidst the sea of clouds, floating high above are immortal mountains and platforms. The silent mountains and platforms give no indication of the whereabouts of immortals.

Su Yun searches the area carefully with his eyes, but his hand reaches out to try and take down the painting. However, the scroll seems to be imprinted in the air and does not budge.

He tries to move around it, but the painting blocks his path, like a wall.

Just then, Su Yun sees something fly by in the clouds, a faint streak of light. His eyes start to ache.

"It's the sword!" Su Yun's heart races with panic. It's the sword that made him blind.

He didn't see the shape of the light, but the pain in his eyes confirms that it's the same sword that flew out of Tianmen and towards Tianmen Town six years ago.

Su Yun breaks into a run towards Tianmen, reciting the "Honglu Shanchan Yangqi Pian" in his mind. As he runs, he activates the "Honglu Shanchan" technique, and his heart becomes a powerful furnace that ignites the Yin and Yang energy, turning it into charcoal fire.

His blood flows like molten copper in his body, making a rushing sound like water.

The "Honglu Shanchan" technique makes his strength explode at this moment. As his power explodes, the surging vitality in his chest turns into the first loud and heavy thunder!

The power of the dragon crocodile rises from his tailbone, climbs up his spine, and runs through the 33 vertebrae. His footsteps are like the claws of a crocodile, grabbing onto the bridge, and leaping more than ten feet.

The sword's whistle gets closer, and Su Yun gets closer to the broken bridge and Tianmen.

A bright light shines, and the immortal sword flies out of the clouds, illuminating the world. Although the sword light is bright, Su Yun's vision is pitch black.

Under this kind of sword light, he can't see anything, just like six years ago when he was blind.

Su Yun's face remains calm, and he continues to run. Above his head, the Huang Zhong bell rotates slowly without any chaos.

At the same time, his brain calculates his speed and position to determine where he is and how far he is from the broken bridge.

Every second, even every moment, his calculations are accurate.

"It's been six years, and I've gotten used to the darkness!"

Su Yun takes the final step, stepping on the edge of the broken bridge. He leaps like a crocodile from the deep abyss, charging towards his prey with a fierce and primitive wildness.

Qiu Shuijing's judgment of people is precise. He is not wrong. Su Yun does indeed possess a terrifying wildness that is difficult to tame.The wildness that was usually hidden beneath the boy's gentle appearance burst out completely at the critical moment of life and death!

"Roar..."

Su Yun was in mid-air, his chest heaving violently, exhaling thunderous breaths, while his body transformed into a crocodile dragon, shedding its skin and turning into a horned dragon, soaring in the sky, bathing in thunder tribulation!

His body movements changed, his hands clasped together and stretched forward, heavily clapping like a crocodile opening its mouth to devour its prey, while his body whirled and rolled, and just when his power was almost depleted, he took another step forward and charged into the Heavenly Gate!

Crocodile dragon out of the abyss, crocodile dragon rolling, these two moves were done in one breath!

And behind him, the immortal sword whistled along the bridge surface and stabbed towards Su Yun as he disappeared into the Heavenly Gate.

At the same time, the Heavenly Gate disappeared!

The immortal sword pierced through the air.

Su Yun passed through the Heavenly Gate, feeling a strong sense of falling and weightlessness. Suddenly, everything went black, and his spiritual consciousness returned to his body.

He was still sitting in the same place, practicing the transformation of the Honglu, never having left.

The warm sun had risen to about three poles high, and Su Yun felt the warmth of the sun and the delicate touch of the sea breeze. His pounding heart gradually calmed down.

"That world was really like a dream."

The boy stood up, his eyes still unable to see anything, but a smile appeared on his face.

"Like a dream hidden in my eyes. But it's real."

He activated the transformation of the Honglu, ignited the Honglu of heaven and earth within his body, and his blood flowed like heavy copper and iron, transporting his Qi and blood to all parts of his body.

"Roar!"

Four kinds of thunderous roars mixed together in his body, and Su Yun's footsteps moved, his Qi and blood roiling, like a humanoid crocodile dragon, pouncing out!

At this moment, Hua Hu and the other three little foxes couldn't help but have their hair standing on end. Su Yun gave them the feeling of a crocodile dragon rushing out from the depths of the abyss, transforming into a fierce horned dragon!

Whoosh...

Su Yun's right leg swept back, causing a buzzing vibration in the air. The four foxes seemed to see a horned dragon with well-trained muscles, swinging its tail heavily.

The primordial Qi on Su Yun's right leg filled his blood, swelling his Qi and blood, and the scales on his legs and feet were faintly visible, sinister and ferocious!

That was the Qi and blood transformed, filling his right leg, allowing his sweeping power to reach its peak!

Next, the Dragon Swimming in the Marsh, the Dragon Fighting in the Wild, and the Crocodile Dragon Rolling moves were all displayed on him one by one. Hua Hu and the other four foxes only felt a fierce and ferocious horned dragon stretching its body, striding around them, in front of and behind them, left and right, all were the body of the horned dragon.

They seemed to be surrounded by an evil dragon!

Suddenly, the vision disappeared.

Su Yun returned to his original position, his feet apart and shoulder-width apart, his body straight, his hands clasped in front of his chest, slowly pressing down.

As his palms pressed down, the Qi and blood in his body sank into his dantian, and along his spine, it climbed up.

Crack, crack, crack!

His Qi and blood broke through the fascia between his spine bones, like a crocodile crawling up his spine, all the way up to his neck, to the back of his head.

When this Qi and blood rushed to the jade pillow bone, his Qi and blood flowed to his back, forming the pattern of a horned dragon on the surface of his skin, like a dragon tattoo on his back.

The four little foxes opened their mouths wide. They didn't see the dragon tattoo on Su Yun's body, but they saw the dragon claws extending from Su Yun's sleeves, merging with his palms."Qi and blood manifestation!"

Hua Hu's heart trembled slightly. Su Yun had managed to cultivate the Qi and blood manifestation of the Crocodile Dragon in such a short time!

Although Qiu Shuijing did not teach them all the tricks of the Crocodile Dragon Song in the second part of the Honglu Shanbian Yangqi Chapter, he roughly explained some knowledge.

There were three achievements in the Crocodile Dragon Song. The first was to cultivate the Crocodile Dragon Thunder Sound, where the Qi and blood flowed, and thunderous sound was emitted from the chest.

The second achievement was manifestation, where the Qi and blood flowed, forming a dragon tattoo. After the Qi and blood dissipated, the dragon tattoo would disappear.

The third achievement was manifestation.

This was when the Qi and blood became so strong that the Crocodile Dragon would appear behind or around the body!

Hua Hu was puzzled. Su Yun had not even cultivated the first part of the Honglu Shanbian Yangqi Chapter, so how did he manage to cultivate the second part of the Crocodile Dragon Song? And even achieve the second achievement?

Cultivating the first achievement was not easy, requiring high talent and comprehension. Hua Hu had just entered this achievement and had not yet reached its peak.

To reach its peak, he estimated that he would need a few months of effort.

Cultivating the second achievement was even more difficult. Qi and blood manifestation was most important, requiring abundant Qi and blood!

This required continuous cultivation of the first part of the Honglu Shanbian Yangqi Chapter to strengthen the Qi and blood. Generally, one needed to cultivate the third part of the Honglu Shanbian Yangqi Chapter to achieve this!

Su Yun had not even cultivated the first part of the Honglu Shanbian Yangqi Chapter, so how could he achieve the second achievement of the Crocodile Dragon Song?

Hua Hu was greatly puzzled.

Su Yun's Qi and blood slowly calmed down, and the dragon tattoo on his back gradually faded away and disappeared.

The young man held his breath and concentrated, silently thinking, "The Crocodile Dragon Song in that painting is indeed more powerful! My experience in another world is real. If I want to enter there again, I need to activate the Eight-Faced Heavenly Seal again. However, it is extremely dangerous there."

He looked serious.

Entering that wonderful world through the Heavenly Gate was extremely dangerous, as a slight mistake could result in being buried under the immortal sword!

But...

"It's worth the risk!" Su Yun silently thought to himself.
