Chapter 72: Desperate Situation

Chapter 73: Desperate Situation While hesitating, Yan Moying saw that the words on the stone tablet changed again: "Opportunity is fleeting and will never come again; a moment's delay will make it too late to regret!" Seeing this, he suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity. If he missed it, he might not be able to reach Guiying Peak. So he said nothing, stopped thinking, and jumped over the stone tablet and walked into the clouds. As soon as he was in the mist, he immediately felt his body sinking into the deep trench, and he felt something was wrong, but there was a belief that he must stand firm and move forward. He calmed down and used his energy to make himself stand firm. Sure enough, he did not fall, nor did he fall directly into the abyss. His feet were just soft and his body was slowly sinking. However, such a slow sinking was enough to make people despair. The mist gradually covered his knees, waist, chest... It got higher and higher. He felt a little stuffy in his chest and it was getting more and more difficult to breathe, but he always insisted on moving forward and taking difficult steps. When he took the ninth step, the mist had already filled his nose and was about to cover his eyes. He felt like he was suffocating, his body was extremely uncomfortable, and he felt like he was going to explode. His head was splitting, and he was about to fall to the ground because he could not hold on. At this time, an ominous premonition naturally came to his mind - he might be buried here. But at the same time, he had infinite strength and courage in his heart - don't think about the past, don't ask about the future, put everything aside, and take the last step! These two thoughts came to him almost simultaneously, and he himself had no time to sort out these thoughts. He only knew that at this moment he had used up all his strength - it seemed to be his last bit of strength - and took the tenth step with difficulty! When the mist did not reach his lower eyelids, he took the tenth step! Instantly, he felt something under his feet quickly lifting him up, until the clouds and mist were only above his ankles. Instantly, he not only felt refreshed, his breathing was extremely smooth, and his internal energy was deeper than before, but even his eyes suddenly became clear, and the night turned into day in an instant! The mountain over there stood tall in the sky-blue world, giving people a feeling of stability and peace. After experiencing this process, he felt like he was reborn after a painful struggle. It turned out that breathing freely was such a happy thing. Looking down at his feet, he saw that what was supporting him was actually a white stone bridge. There seemed to be a rainbow at the end of the bridge. Although the rainbow was not very long, it was in the shape of an arch, showing the color of life. On both sides of the stone bridge are clear rivers, the water flowing slowly and humming, creating slight ripples. The water looks deep and clear, as deep as the true love between lovers when they look at each other, and as clear as a heart without complicated thoughts. There are no fish in the water, nor are there any reflections of the surrounding scenery. It always flows slowly and persistently in one direction. Looking from afar, it is hazy, and you cannot see the distant past and the future of the river. You don’t know where the source of such a river is, nor do you know where it will flow to. You just watch it flow under the bridge where you are standing, without bringing anything, leaving anything, or taking anything away. It is really too clear. Yan Moying walked to the other end of the bridge and passed through the rainbow arch. There were birds singing and flowers blooming in front of him, and greenery all around. Although there was no one around, Yan Moying did not feel the lack of vitality at all in this sunny world. (End of this chapter)
