Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 642: Chapter 259: Hard Cultivation of the Immortal Sword Skill

Soon, Little White brought Xu Ran to that strange mountain valley.

Xu Ran sat on Little White’s back, watching the scenery along the way, somewhat astonished.

In the depths of this mountain valley, from time to time came the sound of ”woo woo woo,” like the whispers of demons, chilling to the bone.

Moreover, the trees within this valley were exceedingly tall, twice as tall as those in other parts of the Great Mountain, so much so that their branches and leaves blocked the sky, allowing almost no sunlight to penetrate.

”Strange, logically speaking, with more sunlight, plants should grow more luxuriantly, yet in this place, where the sunlight is nearly blocked by foliage, how are the shrubs below still so tall?”

Looking at shrubs as tall as two meters, Xu Ran was puzzled.

Though puzzled, Xu Ran knew the purpose of this trip was not to solve a mystery, but for cultivating the Wind Control Skill.

Soon, Xu Ran and Little White arrived at the mountain valley entrance.

Now, Xu Ran understood why, all the way in, he heard the sound of ”woo woo woo” coming from the depths.

The mountain peaks on both sides, towering into the clouds, resembled two silent sentinels standing quietly, leaving only a ten-meter-wide passage for people to enter. These peaks were so dark they seemed greenish.

What was astonishing was that, in this valley, the airflow invisible to ordinary people became tangible, dancing wildly with no pattern.

The mountainsides on both sides of the mountain became incredibly smooth in front of this wildly dancing wind, with not a single protrusion, like a perfect artwork.

Watching this scene, Xu Ran couldn’t help but swallow hard, ”This wild wind...”

This chaotic flying environment could be said to be the perfect place for cultivation.

He also understood why Little White was reluctant to bring him here initially; with this wildly dancing wind, he feared he would be blown out as soon as he entered, not even knowing where he would be swept away.

Additionally, being just barely over a year old, he didn’t know if his body could withstand the impact of the wild wind.

For a long time, Xu Ran stared at the wildly dancing wind in the valley, his gaze suddenly becoming determined.

”Come on, no matter how dangerous, I must give it a try!!” Xu Ran’s tone was filled with resolve.

There were only eight months left until the Snake King Awakening, and he wasn’t sure if he could successfully cultivate the Immortal Sword Skill within that time. The only thing he could rely on was the Wind Control Skill.

If progress in the Wind Control Skill was slow, the event eight months later might be troublesome.

”It’s just wild wind, I can withstand it!!” Immediately, Xu Ran looked at Little White, ”Little White, always watch my trajectory, and if you see me being blown out, catch me at the first moment.”

At this, Little White’s eyes also became fierce; this task was extremely important, and if he missed catching master Xu Ran, the consequences would be unimaginable.

To prevent any accidents, Little White directly used the Divine Eagle Skill, his body instantly expanding to 1.5 meters, constantly ready.

Seeing Little White prepared, Xu Ran didn’t hesitate either, hovering in the air, arriving before the mountain valley.

”Woo---”

The sound from the blowing wild wind reappeared in Xu Ran’s ears, as if constantly advising him not to enter.

”I have a strong will, and nothing can shake my determination!!”

With that, Xu Ran resolutely entered the mountain valley.

As Xu Ran stepped in, powerful gusts of wind blasted from within the valley, accompanied by the sound of ”woo woo woo,” echoing in Xu Ran’s ears.

”Ah!”

In just a breath’s time, Xu Ran’s figure was fiercely blown out of the valley.

Little White, who was waiting vigilantly, immediately caught the flying Xu Ran.

”Boom!!”

Even though Little White caught him, the powerful wind still bounced him back, crashing directly into the mountain wall behind, leaving a deep pit.

”Hiss---”

As Little White put Xu Ran down, waves of pain came from everywhere in his body. Looking down, he found his body seemed to have been scraped by sharp paper, densely covered with wounds, bleeding profusely.

”The valley’s wind is too strong!” Xu Ran exclaimed.

After being in there for just a breath, the gust on his body instantly made him full of holes, and if not for Little White catching him, the outcome could have been worse.

Fortunately, there was enough Innate Qi in his body, and this kind of injury, which didn’t reach the roots, recovered quickly.

Scarred parts showed faint golden lines, and the flowing blood stopped instantly, the scars returning to their original state, as if the wounds were just an illusion.

”Luckily there’s Innate Qi, otherwise it might take three days to enter a second time!”

But he only lasted for a breath the first time in, so what about the next?

After resting, Xu Ran entered the valley again.

Like the first time, numerous gusts of wind cut across his body, turning into sharp wind blades that ruthlessly slashed at Xu Ran, and the freely flowing air kept appearing around him, as if to completely destroy the air around him, causing him to fall directly to the ground.

Witnessing this, Xu Ran quickly mobilized the Wind Control Skill, beginning to stabilize the airflow around him, ensuring he could remain stable in the air.

Xu Ran entered into a tug of war with the gusts of wind, which relentlessly disturbed the airflow, while Xu Ran’s task was merely to stabilize it.

However, this tug of war only lasted for three breaths before Xu Ran was blown out again, and Little White accurately caught him.

Xu Ran skillfully used Innate Qi to heal his injuries, his expression turning excited.

”The first time, I only lasted a breath in the valley, while this second time, I not only stayed for three breaths, but also performed the Wind Control Skill.”

”Just those three breaths alone equaled a month of hard cultivation at home!”

Xu Ran’s voice was somewhat high-pitched.

He hadn’t expected the cultivation speed in this valley to be so fast, with three breaths equating to a month’s hard cultivation!

It seemed it wouldn’t take long before his flying speed could rival that of ordinary Fierce Bird Demon Beasts.

After a short rest, Xu Ran stepped into the valley again, continuing his cultivation.

Once.

Twice.

Three times.

...

An entire afternoon passed.

”Bang---”

Xu Ran’s figure flew out of the valley again, but this time he wasn’t caught by Little White; instead, he used his feet to brace against the mountain wall behind him, apart from the body being slashed by wind blades in the valley, he was uninjured.

As Xu Ran used Innate Qi to heal his body, another white figure flew out of the valley.

This figure, unlike Xu Ran, had much fewer injuries.

”Little White, your progress is also remarkable, being able to stay in the valley for two whole minutes.”

The figure emerging from the valley was indeed Little White.

By the tenth time Xu Ran entered the valley, he was already accustomed to the gusts of wind inside, although he could only remain for fifty breaths, when blown out, he wouldn’t crash into the mountain wall behind.

This meant that even if Xu Ran was blown out, aside from being cut by wind blades, he wouldn’t suffer any damage.

Seeing this, Little White simply joined the cultivation in the valley too.

Having practiced in there before, Little White had already adapted, so he could stay for two minutes.

”That’s enough for today.” Xu Ran looked up at the sky obscured by leaves, with no sunlight reaching through, indicating it was getting dark, and if he didn’t return, Lian Ji might begin to worry.

Little White nodded excitedly, today’s training had been extremely beneficial for him.

Immediately, Xu Ran sat on Little White’s back, retracing their path.

Along the way, Little White even casually killed a few Sheep Demons to bring back for dinner.
