Chapter 124 Misfortune Strikes Again: The Mountain Village Boy
Ling Feng took a step and entered the portal.
However, the moment Ling Feng stepped inside, he felt a chaotic void before him, as if he were in endless darkness, unable to see or touch anything.
Time passed second by second, but Ling Feng remained vigilant. He didn't know where he had arrived, nor what fate awaited him.
After an unknown amount of time, Ling Feng suddenly felt a bright light before his eyes. Immediately afterward, a door seemed to open, and a powerful force pushed him out of the door.
Before Ling Feng could react, he was sent flying like a cannonball, disappearing from the doorway in the blink of an eye.
When he finally saw his surroundings clearly, he was startled and couldn't help but let out a gasp:
"Damn system, are you trying to kill me so you can find someone else to replace me?!"
Ling Feng discovered that he was high in the sky, with a dense forest below.
Although his lightness skill was quite good, it was useless against such a high altitude and with nowhere to use it.
Fortunately, he was standing in a dense forest, and he wasn't at a particularly high altitude.
Therefore, the tree branches acted as a buffer during his fall, slowing down his descent.
In the end, although he was dazed and in pain from the fall, it seems that he has survived, which also prevents him from becoming the first transmigrator to die from a fall.
It seems the system still has a sliver of conscience, not going to the extreme of extermination, but even that sliver of conscience is minimal, otherwise Ling Feng wouldn't have been treated so badly.
Before Ling Feng could even check his injuries, he discovered that misfortune never comes singly, with one bad thing after another.
Previously, he almost exploded and died due to the agitation of his internal energy. Fortunately, at the critical moment, the system stepped in to help him suppress the agitated internal energy.
Unexpectedly, just after Ling Feng transmigrated to this unfamiliar new world, before he even had a chance to figure out what was going on, the system silently lifted the suppression of his internal energy.
This sudden turn of events caught Ling Feng completely off guard. He was furious, but what could he do about the system?
It seems the system is a heartless and cruel thing, preparing to kill itself!
Ling Feng had no time to worry about his injuries and could only do his best to suppress the restless internal energy within his body.
However, this sudden surge of internal energy was far beyond Ling Feng's control and he simply couldn't manage it.
Previously, when he was at the peak of the Grandmaster realm, he could still suppress the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique, but now that the previous hidden dangers have not been eliminated, he has broken through to the Shattered Void Realm in one go. The Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique can no longer suppress him at all.
Therefore, Ling Feng could only maintain this for a little over half an hour before he could no longer suppress the restlessness.
Instantly, this internal force, like a wild horse, began to run rampant within Ling Feng's body.
This internal force was like a Japanese soldier invading a village, rampaging through Ling Feng's body and wantonly destroying his meridians.
Being treated so roughly, Ling Feng was in excruciating pain and eventually fainted from the pain.
Although he had fainted, his internal energy was still wreaking havoc, wantonly damaging his meridians.
Ling Feng's body instantly transformed into a frenzied field of internal energy, and gradually his body could no longer bear the strain, causing blood to flow from his seven orifices.
Blood flowed down his face, making him look terrifying and ferocious, like a demon crawling out of hell.
Ling Feng was completely unaware of what was happening, and could only let the violent internal force rage within his body, constantly damaging his meridians and internal organs.
As the effects of his frenzied internal energy intensified, blood began to seep from the pores of Ling Feng's body.
First his arms, then his face, and then his whole body. Soon he was covered in blood, even his hair was stained red with blood, making him look extremely terrifying.
Ling Feng's aura had become extremely weak, almost imperceptible. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, one might have thought he was dead.
After an unknown amount of time, sounds finally came from the dense forest.
"Xiao Fan, are you sure you just saw someone fall here?"
"Yes, Tie Niu, not only did I see it, Jing Yu saw it too."
"Um"
These are the voices of three teenagers, all around ten years old. The one in the lead is called Tie Niu, a chubby little boy. The other two are called Xiao Fan and Jing Yu, respectively. They are from a nearby village.
Not long ago, Ling Feng fell from a great height, which was witnessed by Xiao Fan and Jing Yu.
However, due to the distance, the two only saw a figure falling from the sky and could not determine the exact location where Ling Feng fell.
Out of curiosity, they told Tie Niu about it, and the three of them came to check it out. However, because it was too far away, they only found it now.
"What happened? Why can't I find it?"
"Yes, Xiao Fan, Jing Yu, are you two sure you didn't see it wrong?"
"Impossible! We saw it with our own eyes, how could we be mistaken!"
"Then why haven't we found anyone here after searching the whole place?"
"Will..."
"Could it be anything?"
"Could that person have already left?"
Upon hearing this, Tie Niu was taken aback, and then said:
"That shouldn't be possible. Falling from such a height, even if you don't die, you'll be seriously injured. There would definitely be bloodstains or other traces left. Let's search more carefully."
With that, the three of them continued their search in the dense forest.
The reason these three were so eager to find Ling Feng was not entirely because they felt pity or were simply driven by curiosity.
In fact, this world itself is a world of cultivation, and various legendary stories about cultivators are widely circulated in the world.
Even more coincidentally, a powerful cultivation sect existed near where they lived.
Therefore, they occasionally have the opportunity to witness the spectacular sight of monks soaring through the air on flying swords.
However, for ordinary mortals, without special opportunities, it is very difficult for them to embark on the path of cultivation in their lifetime.
When they saw Ling Feng descend from the sky, a surge of excitement welled up in their hearts.
They naturally assumed that Ling Feng must be a legendary cultivator, but perhaps due to some unexpected circumstances, he fell from the sky.
This mysterious and novel phenomenon aroused their curiosity, and they hoped to take this opportunity to glimpse the path of cultivation, and perhaps even gain access to the immortal sect.
With this expectation in mind, the three of them resolutely embarked on a search for Ling Feng.
However, after searching for a long time, the three still could not find any trace of Ling Feng.
After all, they had only caught a glimpse of Ling Feng falling from the sky from afar and had no way of knowing exactly where he fell.
Faced with this outcome, the three realized with dismay that they might not be able to find Ling Feng.
Despite their disappointment, they understood that they couldn't force things.
Ultimately, they decided to give up the search.
After all, they initially came looking for Ling Feng out of mere curiosity and impulse, and now that they have found nothing, there is no need to continue the search.
