seen nothing which he would consider divine.
He previously picked some Shadow Mushrooms because Lan Feng said that they were valuable, yet after filling a whole storage stone with them Hui Yue paid no more attention to the mushrooms which were as numerous as stars in the sky.
“This way!” Hui Yue barked as he ran through a side path, Deng Wu following right behind him. “Whatever it is, it seems to go a specific way. We better get out of the way, or we will most likely get crushed together with the wall.” Hui Yue was slightly flustered as Lan Feng was completely silent and his scanning had not shown him any life forms. This was making it hard for him to know what it could be that was after them.
Dashing through the side path, Hui Yue was certain that they could get out of the way, yet as soon as they moved whatever was smashing walls behind them also changed destinations. There was no longer any question about where it was headed, whatever was crashing through walls was aimed at them. Hui Yue gritted his teeth as he stood up again.
“Get ready,” He said as Black Blood appeared within his hand along with a tint of red within his ice-blue eyes. His demeanor changed and the air around him seemed to grow colder. So cold that even Deng Wu next to him started shivering.
Hui Yue allowed for his consciousness to enter the stone below and with that he could see everything that was happening, even on the other side of the walls.
Waiting patiently, Hui Yue quickly noticed that it was not just one person who was on their trail; it was, in fact, two. As the revelation dawned upon Hui Yue, a smirk appeared on his meditating face, and the frozen atmosphere quickly returned to being humid and stale like before.
Deng Wu was surprised to see that Hui Yue withdrew his senses from the stone floor and once more returned to his body as he had expected the younger male to get ready for a fight. Instead, he leisurely walked to the opposite wall and leaned against it.
Loud thunderous sounds could be heard, and it felt as though the entire mountain was shaking, as walls were broken down, one by one before finally only one wall separated the two groups.
Deng Wu was slightly nervous, yet he trusted Hui Yue completely. After a moment he moved next to the white-haired boy where he sat down on the chilled, moist stones, waiting to see what could explain these thunderous sounds.
Just as the sounds reached the final wall, they stopped. Although there was now only one door between the two groups, it was impossible to break them the same way as Sha Yun had done previously, as she was likely to injure her friends in the process.
Instead, she sat down and began meditating, allowing for her tail to cut out a doorway within the wall, a doorway which allowed for the two groups to see each other again.
As soon as Deng Wu saw the culprits, relief flooded his senses, and a big smile appeared on his face as he quickly assisted Sha Yun in removing the wall. Looking at the group, Hui Yue could not help but feel that they were slightly unbalanced.
First was Deng Wu, who managed to specialize within a very frowned upon road of cultivation as a necromancer, yet his abilities as an inscriber were truly astounding. Hui Yue saw how he could create almost anything as long as he had enough materials. Deng Wu was a Metal affinity Master just like Hui Yue, yet Hui Yue had not spent much time on that specific element.
Sha Yun was someone who had the same elemental affinity as Hui Yue, yet she still managed to outshine him when it came to merging with the earth. In spite of that, Hui Yue’s future when it came to the Earth element was limitless, and he could already feel his power growing day by day, within this stone maze.
Wang Ju Long was the only one, apart from Hui Yue, who had a dual elemental affinity. Though her second affinity was limited so, for now, she focused solely on the Wood
