Chapter 231
‘Do I need to fight this red-shelled insect with bare hands?’
Chu Yunsheng suddenly had a chill down to his spine, he did not know any physical combat techniques! How was he going to fight this red-shelled insect!
Looking at the ancient book, which was the only thing he could take out from the storage talisman, Chu Yunsheng was so frustrated.
‘Don’t tell me that I have to use the book to smash the red-shelled insect to death?!’
Chu Yunsheng did not know what would happen if he died in this divine realm, the people who did not wake up might have something to do with this, however, unlike other people, there was no one to save him, so since there was no hope of winning, Chu Yunsheng quickly decided to jump off the platform.
This was exactly his behavior style, which was to be extra careful with the things that were unknown to him.
However, not only did Chu Yunsheng not succeed in jumping off the platform, he was knocked back by a shield and landed on the ground next to the red-shelled insect’s mouth, which was currently dripping the corrosive liquid!
“Fuck!” Chu Yunsheng cursed, he did not realize that the platform was already covered by a green grid-patterned energy shield. But Chu Yunsheng did not stop moving, within that split second, he who had a rich combat experience immediately turned around with his legs curled up, his back against the ground and his both hands pushed the ground next to his ears, and his legs suddenly kicked upwards. He then landed on the back of the red-shelled insect at an incredible speed.
The red-shelled insect also was not slow either, while Chu Yunsheng flipped his body, and tried to grab the back of the red-shelled insect, its sharp mouth parts also sliced across Chu Yunsheng’s abdomen.
Chu Yunsheng felt a sharp pain, however, he did not dare to let go of his hands, he was tightly gripping the back of the red-shelled insect while bowing his head down to examine his injury. Then, he was surprised to find that he did not bleed.
The wound in his abdomen did not reveal the bloody internal organ. Instead, it was the blurry green grid patterns?
“What the fuck? Digital life?” Chu Yunsheng was stunned. “What is this place really! ”
From just a dream to a spiritual world and a pocket dimension, until now the ancient divine realm, Chu Yunsheng found that the more he knew about this place, the more he did not know.
When he was attacked by the red-shelled insect, he also noticed that his Yuan Qi and his energy shield was still there, presumably, it had something to do with the ancient book, but why he could not take out other talismans, he was so confused.
Although the energy shield could still be used at the moment, without any offensive talismans or weapons, his Yuan Qi energy was useless! The only thing he found Yuan Qi might be useful was that it could be used to fix the deep crumbled grid pattern in this abdomen.
The red-shelled insect became extremely irritated after it found out that it could not buck Chu Yunsheng off its back. However, Chu Yunsheng could not think of any solutions of how to attack the red-shelled insect at the moment, so before he knew what to do, he did not want to let go of his hands. Luckily, he had known his old friend – the red-shelled insect for a very long time, he knew about all its movements.
Time slowly passed, both of them were struggling, however, Chu Yunsheng was even more anxious because his physical body was currently still in a snow cave, he did not know how long this fight would last, but he knew that the longer it last, the more dangerous it would be for his physical body.
The red-shelled insect seemed to have given up bucking Chu Yunsheng off its back after a while or perhaps it was tired, It was laying on the ground making a chirping sound from time to time.
Only now did Chu Yunsheng get to see the strange patterns on the platform again. Since the red-shelled insect was very quiet now, he started to exam the patterns carefully. He was then shocked to find out that it was a set of energy or Yuan Qi usage diagrams!
Chu Yunsheng looked at the nine diagrams on the ground and started to harness energy inside his body, he could clearly feel that the patterns were used to change the body movement speed.
Although Chu Yunsheng did not learn any physical combat techniques from the ancient book, from the energy movement inside his body, he had a strange feeling that the diagrams on the platform were not as good as the diagrams in the ancient book.
No wonder why the Skywalkers from the castle of raging fire were very agile. They must have learned this set of diagrams as well, Chu Yunsheng thought. Then another question came to his mind immediately, if Chu Yunsheng could learn such physical combat techniques, why would the senior practitioner ask him to learn the physical combat technique only when he reached Yuan Tian stage three?
What the senior practitioner learned during his lifetime must have been very complicated and profound, with just the power of talismans, it had already made two aliens fight each other!
Chu Yunsheng always suspected that he had misinterpreted some parts of the book, especially the knowledge that the senior practitioner had. How thick of the ancient book would it need to be and how many words would it need to contain? There was no way that the book would be able to contain all the knowledge that the senior practitioner had.
So what the book contained must be the essence of the senior practitioner’s knowledge, not only that, the book must have been written in a specific way that the reader of the book would be able to easily and quickly learn from the basic knowledge to the complicated knowledge.
Based on this theory, Chu Yunsheng could barely explain why he would feel that the method he learned from the platform was somehow shallow than the method in the ancient book.
At the moment, Chu Yunsheng could not use armor, so although these nine diagrams belonged to a low tier physical combat method and it could not even compare with the speed he had when armour on, it would still increase his chance of winning this red-shelled insect.
Suddenly, the red-shelled insect below him disappeared, Chu Yunsheng instantly fell to the ground.
Then a blue ripple roughly as big as a human appeared in the middle of the platform. There was a yellow squared grid-patterned button in the middle of the blue ripple screen and two arrows on each side of the grid-patterned button. One arrow was curved, it seemed like a return button, the other one was pointing at the next squared grid-patterned button, however, both buttons were not highlighted or blinking, it seemed like it was not activated just yet.
Chu Yunsheng did not understand what it meant, there were no texts, just pure buttons, so he waited.
After there were no other strange things that happened in a while, he could not resist but press the yellow square grid patterned button, then two arrows were highlighted instantly. He thought for a second, wondered that the returned button might be the way to exit the divine realm, so he pressed it.
After a loud buzz sound, the blue screen shrunk back into the platform, then another red-shelled insect appeared in front of him.
“Fuck!” Chu Yunsheng cursed again, he subconsciously started to move his body by following the movement method in the nine diagrams to avoid the red-shelled insect’s attack.
The red-shelled insect started to chase Chu Yunsheng while spitting the corrosive liquid after missing the first attack. If it were not for the fact that his energy shield could still be used, Chu Yunsheng’s body would have probably already had several holes.
Although Chu Yunsheng was not as talented as the self-awakened Skywalkers, since he started studying the ancient book, he was much more knowledgeable in the cultivation methods and rules than others. While he was being chased by the red-shelled insect, he sensed the flaws of the nine diagrams, every time when he felt something was not right, he would slightly change it to suit his energy movement better.
After changing the method back and forth for a while, the original method was completely changed by him, and the effect of the nine diagrams of body movements had also changed a lot.
Plus Chu Yunsheng’s energy was different from other Skywalkers, his speed was getting faster and faster and in the end, the red-shelled insect stopped chasing him and stopped in the middle of the platform, did not know what to do.
Chu Yunsheng was constantly running until the floating platform once again made a strange noise, then the red-shelled insect disappeared once again. The blue ripple screen also re-appeared. This time, the dark yellow squared grid-patterned button became light yellow. Other than that, nothing had changed.
It had been a very long time since Chu Yunsheng felt a sense of achievement, it made Chu Yunsheng press the return button again inadvertently.
However this time, he was much more familiar with both the process of the platform and the improved version of nine diagrams of body movements method.
The new red-shelled insect gave up chasing even more quickly this time.
Then the red-shelled insect disappeared again as he expected, however, the squared button became orange colored.
Chu Yunsheng suddenly had a thought, what if he killed the red-shelled insect, what would happen?
When he was running away from the red-shelled insect earlier on, he also had an interesting idea, if he could change other people’s rules, maybe he was also able to change the incantations method as well, maybe he could try to draw the diagram of an offensive talisman without any material!
