Lingfeng arrived at a gorge in Demon Suppression Mountain.
The walls of the gorge rose steeply on both sides, with smooth stone surfaces that seemed to reach endlessly upward. According to Monkey Head, this gorge is called Windhowl Valley, a training ground within Demon Suppression Mountain. Every afternoon at ten o'clock, fierce winds would whip through the valley, resembling the howls of demons, hence the name Windhowl Valley.
Initially, Lingfeng had only wanted to test his ability to adapt to the Qi Field with Monkey Head, but he did not expect to find such an excellent location.
Knowing that there was such a place in Demon Suppression Mountain, Lingfeng could hardly contain his excitement. Taking advantage of Azure Vine's rest, he had already made his way to Windhowl Valley.
The width between the sides of Windhowl Valley was barely over three meters. No grass grew in the valley, and not a single grain of sand remained. Since the formation of Windhowl Valley, its unique geographical conditions had led to the creation of powerful winds. As a result, vegetation could not survive here, and even the sand and stones on the ground were blown completely clean.
"If there were no fierce winds here, it wouldn't be bad to build a castle!" Lingfeng thought playfully.
Estimating the time, Lingfeng realized it was still early before noon. He decided it would be better to circulate some True Qi in preparation for the upcoming Aura experiment.
Since learning Adapt to the Qi Field, Lingfeng had been able to absorb some True Qi from the air. Although it wasn't much, it helped fill the void in his Dantian.
With that thought, Lingfeng sat cross-legged on the ground.
At this moment, the True Qi within Lingfeng's Dantian was already able to respond to his control. As he circulated his energy, True Qi flowed from his Dantian throughout his body, moving through his meridians and joints, nourishing his organs and finally returning to his Dantian.
After a week of practice, although he hadn't spent much time on it, Lingfeng felt immensely benefited. It was as if his entire body had received a massage, leaving him feeling completely relaxed.
"However," Lingfeng thought with some frustration, "since learning Adapt to the Qi Field, I haven't made any progress with Flowing with Water." Despite intensifying his training and significantly improving his lung capacity compared to before, whenever he submerged himself underwater to feel the current, he couldn't find any gaps in the flow and thus couldn't sense the presence of Aura in the water.
Flowing with Water was simply about capturing that bit of Aura within the current and being able to breathe freely underwater while maintaining vitality.
Yet water is almost all-pervasive. The Aura within the current is naturally difficult to locate, making Flowing with Water challenging to master.
Lingfeng practiced a set of Shattering Stone Fist techniques just as the time for fierce winds arrived.
Suddenly, the other side of Windhowl Valley began to darken. Following that, an incessant roar erupted, as if a horde of demons was howling.
"Finally here!" Lingfeng clenched his fists, steadying himself as he awaited the thrilling moment.
In the distance, yellow sand swirled, and a fierce wind swept through, sending sand and stones flying. The entire Gorge seemed to tremble, like a stampede of thousands of horses or a battalion of tanks charging forward.
Lingfeng furrowed his brow and said, "This isn't just a strong wind; it's clearly a Tornado!"
It was indeed a Tornado, dark and ominous. Although the diameter of the Tornado was not large due to the constraints of the Gorge, its power was not to be underestimated.
"I can't practice Adapt to the Qi Field here; otherwise, I'll be torn to shreds by the Tornado!" Just hearing the furious roar of the Tornado made Lingfeng break into a cold sweat. However, given the speed at which the Tornado approached, escaping from the Gorge was impossible at this moment. The only option was to leap over the Tornado.
Thinking this, as the Tornado drew near, Lingfeng exerted force beneath his feet and suddenly leaped like a frog towards the left stone wall.
Although the stone wall was incredibly smooth, Lingfeng intended to use its rebound force to bounce back and forth between two walls. This way, he could gain enough height to clear the Tornado.
With one foot pushing off, he jumped to the right stone wall. Just with those two jumps, he had already reached half the height of the Tornado. At this moment, with the Tornado looming close, Lingfeng felt anxious but dared not be careless. He quickly began bouncing between the two walls again and finally surpassed the height of the Tornado just as it arrived.
From his elevated position, Lingfeng could see the full form of the Tornado; it appeared as a dark vortex in the center. The Gravel and debris were being shredded apart as if they were fish caught in a shark's mouth.
The entire black vortex nearly spanned one-third of the Gorge and took on an elongated shape.
"Oh no, I've been tricked; I'm going to die for sure." Seeing this scene, Lingfeng's heart sank completely. With his current cultivation level, there was no way he could leap over such an elongated vortex. He had initially thought that Tornados were cylindrical but did not expect it to take on such a rectangular form.
The Tornado howled beneath Lingfeng's feet as it surged forward. Although Lingfeng could continue rising, his strength was gradually waning. After jumping once or twice more, his feet suddenly slipped, and he fell from the air like an eagle with its wings clipped.
As Lingfeng's feet barely touched the Tornado, his entire body seemed to lose its connection with the ground and began spinning violently with the Tornado's inertia. It felt as if demons were tearing him apart; he felt like he was about to be torn limb from limb. His bones creaked loudly as he sensed them beginning to shatter.
"No, I can't just die like this! Ling Xueer is still waiting for me!" With this thought, Lingfeng's body seemed to be filled with strength once again. Although the pain was unbearable, it felt as if all the blood in his body was boiling. The True Qi within his Dantian was stirring, seemingly waiting for Lingfeng's call at any moment.
"Although the Tornado is powerful, its gaps are even easier to find. This way, I can fully utilize Adapt to the Qi Field!" As Lingfeng's clothes were torn apart, he could clearly feel the changes in his body. He could sense the Aura within the Tornado, even more clearly and easily than usual.
To avoid being shredded by the Tornado in an instant, Lingfeng began to channel all of his True Qi, sending it to every inch of his skin and protecting his heart veins.
The next task was to turn the Aura within the Tornado into a tool for his escape.
Lingfeng had long memorized the technique of Adapt to the Qi Field. Although his body was restricted, he could still perform it to a significant extent. Even during the process, Lingfeng could feel that the Aura around his body was gradually expanding, eventually allowing him to breathe freely.
"Strange, why does it feel like my body is absorbing some kind of energy? And it seems like there's a lot of energy being absorbed!" Gradually, a huge encirclement of Aura formed around Lingfeng, allowing him to maintain balance within it. Soon after, a familiar warm current flowed into Lingfeng's body.
"Could it be True Qi? That faint True Qi in the air!" The more he thought about it, the more excited Lingfeng became. He never expected that he could unintentionally gather a large amount of True Qi.
The True Qi present in the air was just a small part. However, Lingfeng's Adapt to the Qi Field had inadvertently reached a level where he could collect True Qi in large quantities. The encirclement not only protected Lingfeng and collected oxygen but also gathered a significant amount of True Qi. The warm current entering Lingfeng's body was indeed the True Qi collected by the encirclement.
At this moment, within the massive Tornado, Lingfeng felt like a chick waiting to be born. The enormous encirclement resembled a giant eggshell that could not be easily broken.
The Tornado moved to the center of the Gorge, and its momentum began to strengthen once again. Lingfeng trembled violently within the protective membrane; it seemed that this eggshell could shatter at any moment.
As more and more True Qi flowed into Lingfeng's body, he felt power surging through his limbs. Although he couldn't immediately utilize the True Qi that had just entered his body, he could still maintain the protective membrane against being torn apart by the Tornado.
Finally, as the Tornado reached the end of the Gorge, its winds gradually weakened until it disappeared completely. Accompanied by a sense of relief, Lingfeng's surrounding protective membrane slowly dissipated. He gently landed on the ground, feeling deeply moved. After practicing Adapt to the Qi Field for so long, he finally understood its remarkable utility.
In fact, those who had practiced this Spell were unaware that Adapt to the Qi Field had such benefits. They didn't dare challenge themselves like Lingfeng did; everyone knew that if an immortal cultivator lost their will to live, their cultivation would be in vain for this lifetime. Therefore, under normal circumstances, cultivators wouldn't easily attempt dangerous training.
However, Lingfeng was young and reckless; as they say, "A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers," and that was exactly who Lingfeng was.
Lingfeng stretched his arms and legs on the ground. Due to the excessive use of his magical powers earlier, he felt completely exhausted. However, it seemed as if he had discovered a new world, and he was filled with excitement.
"Shixu, Shixu..." A voice filled with urgency came from not far away; it was Monkey Head. Since Azure Vine was next to Monkey Head, it was inconvenient to call out Lingfeng's full name, so he reverted to the proper title for Lingfeng.
Lingfeng looked into the distance and saw that it was indeed Monkey Head bringing Azure Vine over.
"This Monkey Head is really impatient!" Lingfeng thought to himself and quickly responded, "I'm here!"
"You brat, how are you?" Upon seeing Lingfeng standing there in good shape, Azure Vine still took a careful look at him and reproached him, "Brat, even I rarely come to Windhowl Valley, yet you dared to sneak here. Are you trying to get yourself killed?"
Although Azure Vine was scolding Lingfeng, the concern in his tone was evident and sincere. Lingfeng felt a wave of emotion; tears suddenly welled up in his eyes as he hurriedly hugged Azure Vine and said playfully, "Brother, see? I'm perfectly fine." He also made faces at Monkey Head standing behind them.
"Monkey Head, you're not loyal enough! I told you not to tell my Brother," Lingfeng complained to Monkey Head as they walked behind Azure Vine.
Although his voice was somewhat low, it was still heard by Azure Vine. He snapped back to reality and said, "You dare blame your Shizhi? If something were to happen to you, what would I do?" He then turned to Monkey Head and said, "Shizhi, what you did was right. You have a good relationship with Lingfeng; in the future, I will rely on you to be my eyes. As a reward for you, I will teach you a set of Intoxicated Fist. Although it's not a top-tier martial art, it's something that those from Wood Peak cannot learn."
Even though Intoxicated Fist wasn't considered a high-level technique, it was still quite unique. Moreover, receiving the true teachings from the Master of Main Peak was an immense honor. Monkey Head stopped and was overjoyed; he immediately cupped his fists and bowed in gratitude, saying, "Thank you very much, Shixu! From now on, I will wholeheartedly watch over you!"
Lingfeng let out a cry of despair and covered his forehead with both hands in pain, saying, "Now I've got trouble; I've got someone reporting on me!"
