The appearance of the warm water had saved Xie Tian's life, but it had also caused a flaw in Xie Tian's follow-up plan.
He had already thought of how to survive after jumping off the cliff, and he had a high chance of success. But now that there was one more person, he did not know if his plan could bear the weight of two people.
If it could not, both of them would die. But the thought of giving up the warm water to survive had never appeared in Xie Tian's mind.
Thus, he moved. He took out a long silk belt from his bosom and gently tossed it upwards, pulling down the warm water. Then, he used this belt to tie the two of them together, and the speed of their descent increased once again.
Although he had jumped off the cliff twice, he was still nervous. He wasted another breath of time to force himself to calm down. Then, the nine Shadow Moon Blades in his right hand drew nine arcs and shot towards the cliff wall!
Ding, ding, ding, nine consecutive sounds. The nine Shadow Moon Blades were nailed to the cliff wall. The Shadow Moon Blades separated the ninety zhang cliff wall below Xie Tian evenly. Even the depth they pierced was exactly the same.
If the Zheng Family saw Xie Tian's exquisite Heaven and Earth Spin, they might faint.
Xie Tian's mind was unprecedentedly focused. His expression was solemn, and there was only the first Shadow Moon Blade in his eyes. When the tip of his right foot stepped on the blade of the Shadow Moon Blade, the one thousand eight hundred jin of strength in his body was completely unleashed with Dancing Crane Ninth Heaven and instantly loaded onto the blade.
Thus, Xie Tian spat out a mouthful of blood from the enormous rebound. The speed of the two decreased by ten percent, and the first Shadow Moon Blade also left the cliff wall. It drew another arc, passing by Xie Tian's cheek and quickly shooting downwards. Its landing point was exactly one hundred zhang below the ninth Shadow Moon Blade.
The Zheng Family members who had not fainted would definitely faint at this moment because they saw someone use the Zheng Family's top hidden weapon technique, Heaven and Earth Spin, and the control of the strength and angle was almost perfect.
Just like this, Xie Tian used his feet to perform the Heaven and Earth Spin, and built a knife ladder on the cliff wall behind Yin Shen Peak.
There was a reason for Xie Tian's worry. Because there was one more person, every time he suffered the backlash, it would be multiplied. Every thirty meters he fell, his organs would be washed by a huge force, and he would be in so much pain that he wished he was dead.
But what he was least afraid of was pain, because pain was never a reason for him to give up, but only a motivation for him to move forward!
Elder Wenshui was awakened by the mountain wind. He looked around and found that he was flying, and knew that he was about to fall to his death.
He knew that his impulsiveness could not possibly save Xie Tian, who had jumped off the cliff. Even if he jumped off such a high cliff, he would most likely die. However, he still turned his impulsiveness into action. He could not bear to see a foolish twelve-year-old die just like that.
At the very least, he had to do something, or the world would be too cold and heartless to Xie Tian.
People would reminisce about the past before they died. Wenshui recalled for a long time and found that the best thing he had done in his life was to block the palm of Black Water from Red Cloud Peak for Xie Tian. He smiled proudly, but as he smiled, he felt that something was wrong. Why was he not at the bottom yet?
Thus, he opened his eyes and saw the back of a head. Then, he lowered his head and saw the ribbon that tied the two of them together. With his rich experience, he could tell at a glance that the ribbon was a strand torn from the condom …
What, what was going on? Was it a set spirit?
But the next moment, he saw drops of blood.
In the end, Xiao Chen watched in a daze as the Shadow Moon Sabers drew spiritual arcs at the edge of the cliff. Each arc gave him a chance to survive.
"The world is spinning …" Wenshui, who was almost unable to think, replayed the scene in Bianliang City's arena, the scene at the foot of Yin God Peak, and the scene where dozens of lives were taken in Yin God Stronghold.
The three scenes turned into two words: Xie Tian.
For some reason, Wenshui's chest and abdomen began to twitch. His eyes were moist, and his nose was sore.
He shed tears.
At this moment, he finally understood one thing. The set spirit did not become a spirit.
It was Xie Tian who saved him. It was Xie Tian who saved the lives of the two of them while vomiting blood. It was Xie Tian who exhausted his wisdom and courage to change the fate of the two of them little by little …
He knew that Xie Tian did not have to vomit blood. It was because of his own weight that Xie Tian had to exert a force several times his own weight. It was the recoil of this force that made Xie Tian vomit blood.
He knew that the stupid youth in the story had used his wisdom and courage to burst forth with unimaginable power in the face of certain death, and brought a fragile life away from death.
The story was touching, but it was far less touching than the personal experience.
He deeply felt Xie Tian's yearning for life. It was this yearning that moved him to tears.
Xie Tian did not know that Wenshui had woken up. When he felt the vibration from his back, he thought that Wenshui could not bear the pain caused by the violent bumps. He did not even think about it. On the next Shadow Moon Knife, he chose to put both his feet on the knife.
Puff!
A large mouthful of blood sprayed on the cliff. The Shadow Moon Knife that bounced off fiercely slashed across his cheek!
When Wen Shui saw that berserk Shadow Moon Saber drawing an even more resplendent arc and pinning itself to the cliff, his expression changed.
In almost an instant, he understood why the Shadow Moon Knife was so violent. He wanted to loudly tell Xie Tian that he was fine, but it was already a miracle that he was still conscious after receiving Hei Shui's palm. How could he have the strength to open his mouth in the rampaging mountain wind?
Thus, he could only suppress his emotions and make himself incomparably calm. He did his best to lighten Xie Tian's burden. He did this not because he wanted to survive, but because he did not want Xie Tian to be too tired and suffer too much.
Xie Tian's willpower had already reached its limit. Especially after changing to a two-legged stance, every pause of the Dance of the Nine Heavens Crane would fiercely consume his Primordial Yang. Even though the Essence Cultivating Art was producing Primordial Yang at an unprecedented rate, he still could not make up for it.
He could predict his end. There was still over two thousand feet to the bottom of the cliff. He used his last bit of strength and could only step on four more Shadow Moon Knives. The remaining distance was enough to smash him into a meat patty.
But in the face of despair, he did not give up. When he stepped on the fourth Shadow Moon Knife, he no longer had the strength to control the Shadow Moon Knife to draw an arc and accurately shoot towards the next foothold. The speed of the two had only decreased by twenty to thirty percent.
Wenshui seemed to know the end. He smiled again. What was death? To be able to die together with such a young hero, he had no more regrets in this life!
Xie Tian's figure appeared in his mind again. He was prepared to properly appreciate this stupid youth in the last moment of his life. But just as he began to appreciate him, he felt his body tremble again.
Xie Tian had stepped on the fifth Shadow Moon Knife!
Wenshui could not bear it any longer. Old tears rolled out of his eyes and were carried far away by the mountain wind. He could not imagine what kind of strength supported the exhausted Xie Tian to complete this shocking step!
He wanted to loudly roar at Xie Tian. You don't owe me! Give up! Eighteen years later, you and I will be two heroes again! At that time, I will not leave you and we will roam the martial world together!
He could not roar out, but he knew Xie Tian's answer. That was another tremble and the sixth time he stepped on the Shadow Moon Knife …
The two steps that broke through the limits of life completely turned Xie Tian into an empty shell. Looking at the soft falling Shadow Moon Knife, Wenshui smiled with gratification and satisfaction.
To be able to die like this was truly a blessing …
Then, he heard the hoardest, most tragic, most powerless, and most terrifying cry of his life!
"Ah!"
The Meridian Pestle, under the last bit of Xie Tian's strength, was inserted deeply into the cliff!
Sliding down, rapidly sliding down!
Amidst the ear-piercing sound of friction, Xie Tian, who was carrying Wenshui on his back, drew an indomitable character on the perfectly straight cliff wall!
There was no knife ladder leading to heaven and earth, but there was still the indomitable character!
After sliding down a few hundred feet, Xie Tian's right arm was dislocated. However, that arm seemed to be embedded in the Meridian Pestle. Even though it had lost its master's control, the arm still carried on its master's will. It firmly grasped the hope of life and did not give up at all!
Until a crack appeared on the trajectory of the Meridian Pestle.
The crack on the cliff wall was very large, and the Meridian Pestle was very thin. It could not withstand any force at all …
In Xie Tian's eyes, the entire world had calmed down. He did not complain, nor was he discouraged. He had done his best …
Did he do it?
Xie Tian did not think so. Because Wenshui was behind him, the first thing to fall to the ground would be Wenshui …
Therefore, at the last moment before he lost consciousness, the eighteen lines in Xie Tian's body pulled at his muscles and tendons. He began to slowly spin, wanting to get himself down to the bottom and let the Wenshui fall on top …
Feeling his vision slowly rise, Wenshui completely collapsed. He cried violently and smiled at Xie Tian's figure in his mind. He really wanted to stop time at this moment …
Time did not stop. It was the two of them who stopped.
When the spinning Xie Tian faced the cliff wall, the eighteen lines lost their last bit of pulling force …
Suddenly! A strange force suddenly gushed out from the inside of the cliff wall, freezing the two of them in the air. At the same time, a few stones rolling down from the cliff wall were also frozen.
After that, the force was retracted. When the two of them were about to touch the cliff wall, the cliff wall strangely split to the left and right, revealing a transparent membrane.
The membrane was shining brightly, like a bubble that would burst with a poke. But when a stone was about to pass through this layer of bubble, it instantly turned into dust.
Xie Tian, who had lost consciousness, did not see this scene. Even if he saw it, he would not be nervous, because Xie Sha did not give any warning.
Xie Tian passed through the membrane without any hindrance. When it was the Wenshui's turn, there was a trace of resistance. It was as if the membrane felt that Xie Tian could enter, but other things, be it rocks or humans, could not enter.
However, the resistance only appeared for a thousandth of a second, because it seemed to have intelligence. It saw the same spiritual cover, and it tied Xie Tian together with outsiders.
So, after the Wenshui passed through smoothly, the membrane disappeared with a puff, and the cliff quickly closed, without a trace.
Xie Shuai stared at the two people falling down the cliff, not realizing that the cold voice had turned into a real person behind him.
He was dressed in white and had black hair. He was Hei Shui, one of the three white-robed elders of the Redcloud Peak.
He stood on the Yin Shen Peak in Silence. The raging mountain wind could not blow his clothes, nor could it mess up his hair. It could only spin ten meters away from him, following his breath.
As soon as he came here, he controlled the mountain wind. It was not intentional, but the mountain wind thought that it was reasonable to be controlled by him.
"I thought you were smart, but I didn't expect that you couldn't even see the strategy of advancing in order to retreat."
Xie Shuai trembled, and his heart felt like it was twisted by a knife. Now he still didn't know that he was fooled by Xie Tian, but he didn't dare to vent his anger. He hurriedly crawled backward, prostrated himself on the ground, and said respectfully, "You're right, First Elder."
Hei Shui didn't look at him, and said lightly, "Have you got it?"
"Please have a look, First Elder."
Taking the map from Xie Shuai, Hei Shui threw it on the ground after a glance, and said in an unfathomable tone, "Isn't it the Yin Shen Peak on the map?"
Xie Shuai trembled again. He heard a hint of killing intent from Hei Shui's words, so he hurriedly said, "Although the map is simple, the place it points to is inexplicably dangerous. We can only enter with the round stone."
"The round stone is with that person?"
"The map and the round stone were kept by Li Yuanyang, and Li Yuanyang was killed by Xie Tian." Xie Shuai paused for a moment, and said with certainty, "The round stone must be with Xie Tian!"
Hei Shui smiled, "Killing with a borrowed knife? Now you're smart?"
Xie Shuai was terrified, "Xie Shuai would never dare to do that!"
"As long as we can enter that place, it doesn't matter to be used by you once." Hei Shui walked to the edge of the cliff, and said lightly with her hands behind her back, "Unfortunately, I don't feel that kind of breath from that person. The stone is not with him."
