Chapter 890 Underground Ravine

 Prev ChapterNext Chapter 

Searching through their surroundings while escaping, it did not take long before a large ravine appeared in front of them. Even better, the ravine was filled with hundreds of small crevices that they could hide inside of!

"Let's try and hide here…" 

Swoosh~!

Not wasting any time after discovering the ravine, Qing Yi and Chu Yang both came to a quick decision before rushing towards the ravine and hiding inside one of the hundreds of small crevices.

Roar!

However, not even a second after entering the small crevice, a loud roar could be heard from deeper inside, causing them to panic for a short moment while turning to look at the owner of the angry roar-

"Only Peak Foundation Establishment Realm…?"

"Haaa… Looks like we finally found a place where we can hide!"

Luckily, as they turned around to see the demon beast that had made the angry roar earlier, it turned out to be nothing more than a weak demon beast that had only barely reached the Peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, something that they were more than capable of dealing with!

R-Roar…!

Suddenly realizing something was wrong after seeing the Qing Yi and Chu Yang was not scared of it, the demon beast let out another roar as it threateningly barred its fangs at them-

"Hm? What is this thing doing…?"

"I don't know… Maybe it wants to play or something?"

Unfortunately for the demon beast, it did not get the reaction it had wanted and was instead met with the ridiculing words of the two creatures that had dared to enter its home without permission!

ROOOAR!

Swish-!

Not intending to play nice anymore, the demon beast let out a far more powerful roar filled with killing intent before charging towards Chu Yang, who was standing closest to it-

Ptsh-!

However, before the demon beast had any chance to react a spear had suddenly pierced through its body. Killing it instantly!

Thump~

"How weird, I for sure thought that it wanted to play with us just a moment ago…" Muttering this to herself with a confused expression on her face after seeing how the demon beast had suddenly launched an attack towards them, Qing Yi looked down at the dead body of the demon beast with a hint of pity in her eyes.

Even if she had only known the demon beast for a few seconds, it was still rather cute and was in the shape of a rabbit. Reminding her of some of the wild rabbits that could be seen roaming around the land outside the sect. The only difference being that it was slightly larger than that of a normal rabbit and had a pair of large and dangerous looking claws and fangs.

"Qing Yi… It's a wild demon beast. Not a tamed one like the demon beasts in the sect…" Not knowing what to say after hearing what his junior sister said, Chu Yang could only remind her that it was a wild demon beast and not like the tamed demon beasts in the sect.

Rumble-!

"They are here! We have to block the entrance to prevent getting found!" Hearing the all too familiar loud rumbling sound from the large number of demon beasts and spiders that had been chasing after them for the last few hours, Qing Yi turned her attention away from the dead rabbit demon beast before pointing towards the small opening that they had used to enter the crevice.

"I'm on it!"

Understanding that Qing Yi was too weak at the moment, Chu Yang moved past her before using his spear to dislodge some stones located around the opening, they had entered the small crevice through-

Bang!

Causing the stones to fall down and block their path back out of the crevice, while at the same time also making everything around them dark now that the sunlight from outside had been blocked from entering.

As for how to get out again… This was not something they worried about for now, as escaping from the powerful demon beasts and endless number of spiders chasing after them was far more important. Not to mention, it shouldn't be too hard for them to break a few stones to make a path outside after they had recovered their strength.

All things considered; they were still in the Nascent Soul Realm. If they could not even break a few stones, they would probably be considered the weakest Nascent Soul Realm Experts out there…

RUMBLE-!

At this point, the shaking all around them grew more intense than before, as both Qing Yi and Chu Yang could feel the hundreds of terrifying auras rushing past above them. Soon being followed by the endless wave of spiders chasing from behind.

""…""

Not daring to say a single word as they felt them passing by above them, Chu yang and Qing Yi silently prayed that they wouldn't get discovered and the demon beasts and spiders would pass by them without noticing the fact that they had hidden right below them.

Rumble~

For what felt like hours, Chu Yang and Qing Yi waited nervously below the ground before the ground stopped shaking and the sound of the demon beasts and spiders grew distant. Allowing them to finally let out a sigh of relief. Having managed to successfully escape from the powerful demon beasts and endless swarm of spiders without having to use any of the talismans that their master had given them.

Even with this, Chu Yang and Qing Yi decided to remain quiet without saying anything before finding a small open space inside the crevice where they could sit down and recover some of the energy, they had used during their escape earlier. Not wanting to leave the crevice only to end up in another dangerous situation with no energy left to fight or run away.

Like this, time slowly passed inside the small dark space inside the crevice without any of them knowing what had happened to the demon beasts or the spiders who had been chasing after them.

…

Finally managed to fully recover! Hm… Given the state of Qing Yi, it should still take her another half hour before she recovers fully…

Being the first to fully recover between the two of them, Chu Yang got up before turning to look towards Qing Yi who was still deep in meditation. Even without knowing what she was thinking about, it was still obvious that she was focusing all of her attention towards recovering as fast as possible.

"Hm? I didn't expect the crevice to be so deep…" Looking away from Qing Yi and instead turning his attention towards inspecting the rather large crevice that they now found themselves inside of, Chu Yang could not help showing a somewhat surprised expression on his face after looking down and discovering that outside of the entrance part of the crevice where they had been staying so far,  the crevice made a straight drop down a few dozen meters further inside.

Not only that, but Chu Yang also noticed that he was not able to see the end of the crevice that seemed to continue deeper inside the earth than his divine sense could see. Even starting to expand. Making it look more like an underground ravine than a small crevice in the side of a ravine.

"Wait… What is that…"

Suddenly noticing something deeper inside the crevice… Or now underground ravine, Chu Yang could not help narrowing his eyes as he tried to make out what he had seen… But no matter how hard he tried; he could not make out anything outside of the fact that there was something deeper inside the ravine. 

As for finding out what it was… Chu Yang did not want to take the risk to figure it out while Qing Yi was still in the process of recovering. Especially considering how much trouble he had ended up getting them into since entering the mystic realm.

At least this time around, he was going to wait for Qing Yi's opinion on the matter instead of letting his curiosity get the better of him and recklessly charge forward to find out what was hiding deeper inside the underground ravine.

Remembering how he had almost ended up getting both of them killed with the oversized chicken a short time ago, Chu Yang could not help feeling ashamed of his reckless behavior.

Rustle~

However, just as he was fully set on staying and waiting for Qing Yi to finish recovering, he caught sight of something moving inside the underground ravine-

"Hm!? Did something just move?! Don't tell me… Is there a demon beast hiding deeper inside the underground ravine…?"

Causing him to feel an all too familiar curiosity welling up inside him as he did his absolute best to stop himself from trying to head inside the underground ravine to figure out what it was.

Like this, Chu Yang remained quietly standing beside Qing Yi, while never looking away from the underground ravine. Doing his best to try and figure out if there really was a demon beast hiding inside.
