I’m willing to go through that risk
The Spirit Devourer’s claws slammed into the earth again, kicking up soil and shattered bark.My eyes narrowed.It’s close by. I feel its presence even more than before.I had to move. I had to leave them.I turned toward the group mid-fight.“You guys, it’s me that it wants!” I shouted over the crashing limbs and clashing steel. “Quickly—go!”“No way!” Lan Yiran yelled, voice filled with defiance. “We’re not leaving you behind!”“You don’t understand!” I snapped. “You can’t beat this thing—not like this. Just go. Get more help instead. Hurry up!”They hesitated for a breath too long.Then Han Xuyi nodded grimly. “Fall back! Everyone move!”The others fled through the mist, dragging Ping An with them.And I was alone.Just me.And the beast.It lunged again.I ducked low, flipping backward across a slick root, barely missing another swipe. My energy was draining fast. My arms ached. My balance staggered. I was way too weak. Then I remembered.The talisman that Liwei gave to me.I rea
Ravine spirit hunt part 11
Xuyi didn’t bother responding. He was already stepping ahead, spear in hand, every inch of him sharp and silent as the wind before a storm.I stayed back watching the beast closely. “I’ll draw it out,” Ping Bo said, snapping a twig and tossing it toward the thicket. A low growl rumbled from behind the brambles, and then it lunged.The wolfhound spirit beast burst forth, all sinew and shadow. Its fur was black, matted with streaks of violet qi, and its jaws gleamed like polished steel. It moved unnaturally fast for something its size. Ping Bo rolled aside with a laugh. “Too slow!”The beast snapped at the air where his head had been and whirled in mid-leap but it was already too late.Xuyi’s spear made the next move.A gleam of silver weapon pierced the beast’s chest with enough force to lift it off its feet and pin it clean to the bark of an oak tree. The trunk cracked from the impact, groaning under the weight.The wolfhound twitched once, then fell limp.Ping Bo stood and dusted
Ravine spirit hunt part 1
The dawn of the hunt arrived like a blade drawn in silence.The sky above Tianxuan glowed with pale white. Everywhere was filled with nervous qi, excitement, fear and ambition.I stood near the back of the formation quiet and unnoticed by most.Ahead of us, high on a carved platform, stood Elder Jinhai, flanked by two jade-robed disciples holding a lacquered box.“Today marks the start of the Southern Ravine Spirit Hunt,” Jinhai announced, his voice was deep and calm. “Your task is simple: hunt, collect cores, survive or not, he said sarcastically.”He opened the box with a wave of his hand, revealing dozens of glowing bronze tokens—each etched with a unique inscription and rimmed in silver.“These are your spirit hunt tokens. They will track your merit. Each beast core you offer it will be recorded. And should you fall or lose consciousness, the token will shatter and mark your place for recovery—if recovery is possible.”There was another round of mummers. “Top three earners will
I will end you no matter what
I sat cross-legged outside my room, slowly adjusting the qi circulation in my damaged meridians. Each breath was a quiet war, my inner flow still fractured. Still, I was healing. Slowly. I had recovered just a tiny piece of my cultivation, so I could defend myself now. And I had to. In this place, weakness was an invitation.Just before the sun dipped behind the eastern ridge, I heard soft footsteps approaching my quarters. Then I saw her. Liwei.What was she doing here?She stopped a few steps from me, clutching a small lacquered tray wrapped in cloth.“You’re up early,” she said.“Yeah, do you need something?”She hesitated. Then sat beside me on the stone, tucking her legs beneath her neatly.“I brought food,” she added, placing the tray down. “I figured… outer disciples don’t exactly get treated well.”I glanced at the tray. It was simple—steamed buns, pickled radish, and a small ginseng broth. Far better than the dry rice and stale tea the others were given.“You didn’t have t
My chance to find the fragment
He waved a hand, and a disciple entered from outside.“Take him to the infirmary to recover a little then after that take him to the outer disciple quarters. Assign him to low-tier duties.”“Yes, Sect Leader.”I bowed deeply, concealing the fire in my chest.The outer disciple quarters?I’ve been reduced to nothing but it’s only a matter of time before I regain my former glory.I would find that fragment.And then?I’d restore some of my lost cultivation.I followed the disciple out while Liwei looked at me pitifully. The infirmary was quiet, its white curtains swaying with the faint mountain wind. The disciple guiding me barely spared a glance in my direction as he gestured toward an empty cot.“Stay here. The physician will come soon.”I nodded once, biting back the weight of humiliation swelling in my chest. I sat on the edge of the cot, wincing as pain resurged through my side. My ribs were hurting badly, and the injuries got a bit worse after that strike. But I was alive and tha
A crippled stray
It was Liwei… the little disciple who had found me first.She rushed forward, standing beside me. She was probably eavesdropping earlier. “He’s injured! In fact he’s barely alive. Not only have you not treated him, now you want to send him away, sect master. Why would you send away someone who hasn’t harmed us?”Xuan Baoyang looked at her coldly then he went on to say.“You think mercy is free, child? I have led this sect for many years, and I know what must be cut out before it becomes a blade of destruction.”“But! Sect Leader.”“Enough. Go back to your quarters now.”His voice silenced her remaining words.But Liwei did not move.She stood by me, fists clenched, tears threatening to pour down her eyes.She reminded me of Xiao Lan with how protective she was of me. My chest felt very uncomfortable.. I subconsciously rubbed it. “Then let me take responsibility,” she said. “If he ends up harming the sect, punish me instead.”I blinked in Surprise at how far she was willing to go for
