Chapter 134: Danger Everywhere
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Chen Fei touched the shard in his sleeve. The shard of the Heart Pearl could indeed be brought in. However, he did not know if it would be effective against the evils of the Strange Heart Realm when he encountered danger.
The surroundings were completely silent. The sound of Chen Fei and the other person walking also disappeared without a trace under the effect of the Heart Candle.
Chen Fei sensed his own situation. It was still very different from the Heart Realm when he faced the monk last time. At least at that time, Chen Fei could still sense his physical body and blood.
However, in this Strange Heart Realm, his physical body seemed to be in a very distant place. At this moment, Chen Fei could only feel that his body was floating a little. The feeling of being on solid ground was gone, and he was somewhat uncomfortable.
Chen Fei followed Si Yinan forward. After a while, Chen Fei’s expression changed slightly.
In the beginning, Chen Fei thought that this Strange Heart Realm would be completely one-to-one with the real world outside. Although the Immortal Cloud City was gone, the direction of some mountain ranges in the distance was almost the same.
However, Chen Fei and Si Yinan had only walked for fifteen minutes when Chen Fei saw a hill. This mountain slope was dozens of miles away from Immortal Cloud City. It was called General’s Slope.
With Chen Fei and Si Yinan’s current speed, they walked dozens of miles in a quarter of an hour with the way ordinary people walked and they didn’t even use any movement techniques.
How could such a thing happen? The Strange Heart Realm was related to the real world, but it was definitely not the same.
Chen Fei looked around from time to time and compared it to the environment he knew. Suddenly, Chen Fei’s entire body went numb. Chen Fei’s expression changed, and he stopped Si Yinan in front of him.
Si Yinan looked at Chen Fei in confusion. She didn’t know why Chen Fei suddenly stopped her.
Chen Fei made a hand gesture, indicating that there was danger ahead.
Si Yinan looked ahead with some doubt. The fog was floating there. From afar, it looked no different from the road they had walked before.
Chen Fei’s eyes were fixed on the front. At this moment, Chen Fei still felt as if his body and mind were being pricked by needles. If he had the thought of moving forward, this piercing pain would multiply.
It was obvious that Chen Fei’s mind was warning him that there was an extremely great danger ahead. It was not something that the two of them could resist.
Chen Fei signaled for Si Yinan to take a detour. Si Yinan nodded, and the two of them went around the front and left.
However, before he could take two steps, Chen Fei stopped Si Yinan again.
There was still danger ahead. Although it was slightly weaker than before, it would still hurt the two of them if they entered rashly.
Si Yinan didn’t object. The Strange Heart Realm itself was filled with danger. Otherwise, Si Yinan wouldn’t have been forced to leave the first two times she entered, leaving her with only one chance.
They continued to make a detour to the left. This time, the two of them walked a little more before continuing forward. However, Chen Fei’s face immediately darkened. It was still that familiar stabbing pain that kept pricking Chen Fei. There was danger ahead.
If it weren’t for the fact that he had enough confidence in his mind, Chen Fei would have suspected that there was something wrong with his perception. He had already taken such a long detour, but the road ahead was still impassable.
Si Yinan looked at Chen Fei helplessly. Chen Fei looked at the Heart Candle in Si Yinan’s hand. After such a long time, the Heart Candle had already burned about thirty percent.
“How far is it?” Chen Fei didn’t make a sound. He just opened his mouth and mouthed the words.
“I don’t know. The distance that the ring is sensing is still very far.”
Si Yinan mouthed in response. His expression was a little lost. If they couldn’t pass through, how were they going to find her grandfather? If they delayed any longer, the candle in their hands would burn out, and they would have to leave the Strange Heart Realm.
Otherwise, without the protection of the Heart Candle to conceal their aura, although the Strange Heart World might not directly find them, the environment of the Strange Heart World would have a huge impact on the mind. Ordinary minds would probably be directly melted and collapsed.
“Go down!”
Chen Fei hesitated for a moment and pointed in a direction. Since he couldn’t go around from the left for so long, he could only try to go around from the right.
Of course, he could also continue to walk on the left, but Chen Fei faintly felt that this path would be a dead end.
It was hard to explain things like intuition. However, for martial artists, especially powerful martial artists, their intuition would become more and more accurate. This was directly related to the growth of their mental strength.
Si Yi Nan nodded in agreement. The two of them started to walk back to their original path and then started to circle around from the right.
After walking for a while, the two of them heard the sound of water. Chen Fei suddenly realized that this should be the Water Rhyme River that flowed near the Immortal Cloud City. The people in Immortal Cloud City usually got their daily water from this river.
He didn’t expect to see this Water Rhyme River in the Strange Heart Realm.
They didn’t reach the riverside. After taking a detour, the two of them continued to walk forward. This time, it was much smoother. Chen Fei didn’t feel any pain ahead.
A smile finally appeared on Si Yinan’s face.
The sound of the river water echoed in her ears. Si Yinan sensed the ring in her hand and kept moving forward. As time passed, the candle in their hands burned, but the two of them were getting closer and closer to Si Yuanhai’s soul.
Chen Fei suddenly stopped Si Yinan and looked at the black shadow in front of him with an ugly expression.
The feeling of holding a needle against your head and eyes appeared once again. Was the Strange Heart World that abnormal? They had only walked for so long, and they had taken such a long detour, but they still could not avoid it.
Si Yinan looked at the Heart Candle in her hand. There was less than 40% left.
According to the original pace, Si Yinan felt that she could still reach Si Yuanhai’s soul.
However, if he continued to take a detour, it would be too late.
Si Yinan looked at Chen Fei, not knowing what to do.
If they continued forward, there would be great danger, but if they took a detour, they would not be able to make it in time.
“Run!”
Chen Fei pondered for a moment and mouthed.
In the Strange Heart Realm, running would cause one’s mental state to be severely exhausted. Moreover, the swaying of the Heart Candle would easily attract strange attention and cause unnecessary danger.
Thus, the two of them had to move forward. This was the safest way in the Strange Heart Realm.
However, it was clear that they did not have enough time to walk steadily. Furthermore, the black screen in front of him made Chen Fei not dare to barge in.
Compared to the danger he had sensed previously, this black screen seemed to be swallowing him whole, making him feel terrified.
“Jump on my back.”
Chen Fei gestured for a while and then half-squatted down. Si Yinan nodded and jumped onto Chen Fei’s back.
The next moment, Chen Fei ran toward the left. The black curtain extended directly to the riverside, so it was unrealistic to go around from the right.
Now, it was a race against time to find Si Yuanhai’s soul before the candle in his heart burned out.
Chen Fei ran as steadily as possible, but his heart was still shaking violently. The soft murmurs around him began to reach Chen Fei’s ears.
If they were walking just now, there would not be such murmurs.
This kind of murmuring was like a demonic sound pouring into his ears, desperately drilling into his mind. After listening for a moment, Chen Fei was annoyed and became irritable. He even looked at the swaying Heart Candle and wanted to smash it.
A cool sensation spread from the inside of his body, clearing away this irritation. The Tranquil Origin Technique sensed danger and automatically reacted in Chen Fei’s mind.
The light of the Heart Candle suddenly weakened. Chen Fei was shocked and turned his head to look. The Heart Candle in Si Yinan’s hand had unknowingly been almost crushed by Si Yinan.
Chen Fei took the Heart Candle. Si Yinan subconsciously wanted to snatch it and even destroy it. However, Chen Fei immediately shouted and forcefully woke Si Yinan up.
Si Yinan’s hand froze in mid-air, and then her eyes regained clarity. Recalling what she had just done, Si Yinan’s expression changed slightly, and her eyes were filled with fear.
If Chen Fei’s reaction had been a little slower, the Heart Candle would have been destroyed, and the operation in the Strange Heart Realm would have ended here.
The murmurs from the surroundings still entered his ears from time to time. Si Yinan grabbed the thumb ring in her hand and constantly resisted these murmurs.
Fortunately, the Resisting Evil lineage was already familiar with the effects of the illusions in the Strange Heart Realm. They had only been suddenly invaded and had forgotten about this matter. At this moment, as Si Yinan continued to circulate her mental cultivation method, she was finally no longer disturbed.
After making a detour to the left, Chen Fei’s expression was a little ugly. Was the Strange Heart World so abnormal? There was actually danger ahead.
How did the Resisting Evil lineage normally move around in the Strange Heart Realm? In this lousy environment, if they walked a little further, they would be unable to move forward. How could they move properly?
Si Yinan seemed to have sensed Chen Fei’s expression. Her mood seemed to have hit rock bottom. So even if she found someone to help, she still couldn’t save Grandfather?
Chen Fei looked at the Heart Candle in his hand. In such a short time, the Heart Candle had burned quite a bit.
Chen Fei looked at the fog in front of him. He might have to go all out. This was the least dangerous one that Chen Fei sensed.
If they continued to circle around, there might not be enough time left on the Heart Candle.
Chen Fei finally understood. If one wanted to go a little further in this Strange Heart World, it was completely impossible for one to not take some risks.
Chen Fei calmed his mind and looked at the black fog in front of him. He walked in step by step. His pace was slightly slower than a run, but at least it wouldn’t cause the candlelight of the Heart Candle to fluctuate violently.
After entering the black fog, Si Yinan seemed to have sensed danger. She quickly closed his eyes and tried to seal her ears.
To a certain extent, it could avoid being affected by the surrounding environment.
Si Yinan knew that she couldn’t help, so she could only try her best to reduce the impact on Chen Fei.
Chen Fei’s eyes swept across the surroundings. The indistinct murmurs appeared again. Compared to before, the intensity had increased a lot.
Fortunately, his Tranquil Origin Technique which was at Great Completion, perfectly blocked the invasion of these sounds, allowing Chen Fei to remain clear-headed and unaffected.
In the fog, the candlelight was compressed and stuck to Chen Fei’s body slightly. Chen Fei could only see things ten meters ahead. Anything further was covered by the fog.
Suddenly, Chen Fei stopped in his tracks. A figure appeared ten meters ahead..
