"Now try the Sky Weave." Yang Ze was getting more and more excited.
Listening to his command, the Spiritwing fluttered its wings once again, and this time, a thin layer of wind suddenly appeared in front of Yang Ze.
"This is?" Touching the layer of wind that looked like a wall, Yang Ze was stunned for a moment.
"Is this the defensive skill?" Muttering to himself, he kept on increasing his strength, hoping to test its limits. Yet, no matter how much strength he put in, there were no changes in it.
"So tough?" Yang Ze was about to use his Black Tiger fist when he felt the Spiritwing's emotions telling him to calm down.
"Uh!?" This was the first time Yang Ze felt that the spiritwing could actually communicate with him. Even though no words were spoken, Yang Ze had a brief idea of what it was trying to say.
This Sky weave technique was a defensive one that could block incoming attacks as long as the spiritwing's energy was sufficient.
"Then, let's try the last technique, Breeze Echo."
The moment Yang Ze spoke, the spiritwing suddenly flapped its wing as a burst of blue light escaped from its body, travelling in a circle.
"Not good." Lin Meilin, who was watching it with great interest, suddenly waved her hand as her body disappeared from that place and appeared almost five hundred meters away.
The burst of blue light travelled for almost one hundred meters before disappearing completely, and with it, the spiritwing once again fell down on Yang Ze's shoulder, but this time clearly exhausted.
"A radar-type skill?" Yang Ze merely narrowed his eyes as he thought about the possible usage of his skill.
He had to admit that this evolution truly gave him a grand surprise. Even though Spiritwing's previous skills were gone, he had far more useful skills now. Skills that could actually help him out.
"Shall we test the fourth skill together?" With a gentle smile, Yang Ze simply waved his hand as his body began to float in the air.
"HOLYYY." Looking at the ground beneath him that was drifting away from him, Yang Ze couldn't help but laugh in excitement. Just how many times had he dreamt about being a bird and flying in the sky freely? Although he didn't turn into a bird, he could still fly.
Yang Ze's excitement was through the roof as he began to slowly move upwards. It wasn't until he was almost two hundred meters up in the air that he finally stopped. Even though he could go further up, he didn't dare to. Right now, he was just getting used to flying. Once he had perfected it, only then would he go up.
Up in the air, Yang Ze slowly positioned his body before trying to move around. Although it was awkward at first, like a newborn baby who was just trying to walk, he gradually got used to it. In less than five minutes, he had already managed to control his body and began to float around flawlessly, sometimes going up and sometimes down, like a bird.
"...."
"...."
"This… this… this…" Lin Meilin, who has returned to her previous position after the blue circle faded couldnt help but pinch herself, wondering if she was hallucinating or dreaming.
Otherwise, how could it be possible for such an absurd thing to happen? She knew better than anyone else what flying in the air means.
Though Core Condensation and Soul tempering realm experts could use the wind to float around, they could only use it to drift, not actually carry themselves. Some could say that it was the world's suppression of the cultivators. Only after stepping into the Heaven realm can one actually stand up in the air, toe to toe against the suppression of the world.
And for Yang Ze to do it so easily… She was beginning to wonder whether he was just playing around and was, in fact, a heaven realm powerhouse.
But the moment this thought came to her mind, she threw it out. She had seen him, interacted with him and even looked inside his body. That brat was no Heaven realm powerhouse. Hell, if not for her Nectar of Life, he would perhaps still be at the peak of the foundation forging realm.
"How mysterious…" The more she understood about him, the more she learned about him, the more mysterious he became. Not only did he have that miraculous physique, but he also had that otherworldly appearance and a way for Spiritwing to evolve.
And now… now he could even fly.
If not for reasoning, Lin Meilin would have definitely knocked him unconscious and kidnapped him.
She gazed deeply at Yang Ze, who was playing with the Spiritwing as a slight smile appeared on her usually careless face.
"How amusing… Someone as mysterious as him, accompanied by the spiritwing… Is this your idea of prophecy?" Lin Meilin merely shook her head with a smile as she kept her gaze on Yang Ze.
Yang Ze, on the other hand, after flying for almost three hours, finally landed reluctantly. It wasn't as if he couldn't fly anymore, but he just felt dizzy from playing around in the air for this long.
Judging by his internal energy, he could fly for almost ten hours straight at a normal speed, which was equal to him running at his half speed.
If he were to use his internal energy, he could even increase his speed fivefold.
"Now then…" Yang Ze simply waved at the Spiritwing. "Keep an eye around. I am going to take a rest."
After going through so much, Yang Ze was already feeling mentally exhausted. He merely told the spiritwing to guard him before lying down and drifting into sleep.
Lin Meilin, on the other hand, just quietly gazed at him, as if wanting to look through him.
"Forget it…" No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't see anything.
In the end, she merely shook her head before turning around and leaving the palace. With his current strength, there weren't that many people or things that could actually threaten him. At least not in these mountains.
Besides… she still has a few things she needs to take care of.
"Now then…" Muttering to herself, Lin Meilin couldn't help but click her tongue. "How should I plan it?"
----------------------
Yang Ze didn't know how long he had been asleep for. But it was something soft and smooth, constantly touching his face, that woke him up.
"Umm…" Waking up in a daze, the first thing that greeted Yang Ze was the face of his precious butterfly. Those large, round black eyes and a chubby face that one would want to pinch… Yang Ze only looked at it in confusion as it used its soft wings to pat Yang Ze's face.
"What happened?" Rubbing his eyes, Yang Ze stretched his body in confusion. It was only now that he noticed that it was dark once again.
"I slept for an entire day?" Yang Ze wasn't surprised by this. For the past few days, he had been through too much.
He was just confused as to why this spiritwing would wake him up.
And just when he was wondering what was going on, he felt the ground underneath him tremble.
"Huh!?" Yang Ze, who was still feeling asleep, suddenly opened his eyes wide open as he looked around with a cautious face. But no matter where he looked, nothing seemed out of place.
"Am I overthinking?" Yang Ze couldnt help but narrow his eyes in confusion, wondering if he was just overreacting.
But this thought of his didn't last for too long. Before he even had time to think about it, the ground beneath him shook even more violently than before.
"OKAY, DEFINITELY NOT A DREAM." With a shout, he immediately jumped to his feet and looked around with a grave expression and sure enough, he could already hear the sound of innumerable footsteps.
"What the…" Even from such a distance, Yang Ze knew that they weren't human footsteps but instead beasts.
"Spiritwing… use the Breeze Echo." Without any hesitation, Yang Ze called out to the Spiritwing beside him, and sure enough, in the next second, the Spiritwing resting on his shoulder floated in the air before flapping its wings.
And with that, a burst of blue light spread out from its body, covering a distance of a hundred meters.
And the next moment, Yang Ze received an answer in his mind.
[Three hundred demonic beasts.]
"Fuck." Yang Ze's heart turned cold as his back was covered in cold sweat. Just fighting against three demonic beasts almost left him dead. He didn't dare to imagine what facing three hundred demonic beasts would do to him.
In an instant, he gritted his teeth and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Sign in to Cutter Gale Winds."
His daily sign in has reset after he woke up, so now he immediately chose to use it to get the Wind Blade talent.
Though there was another talent of defence, right now, he didn't need it. He can't just sit there and let the beasts attack him without a way to fight back, could he? He needed an offence, and what better way than wind blades that could cleave a rock in two?
And sure enough, the next moment, a message popped up in front of him.
[Congratulations on successful sign-in.]
[Recieved Cutter Gale Winds(Blue)]
[Cutter Gale Winds(Blue): Use your internal energy or mental energy to continuously manifest wind blades to cleave through your opponents.]
It was just a simple description, but it was enough to raise his confidence by another notch.
"Wait a second…" Yang Ze couldn't help but slap himself on the forehead. "Why am I even trying to fight them?"
Because he had just woken up after such a comfortable sleep, his mind was still slow to react. But now that he was fully awake, he finally came back to his senses and almost wanted to slap himself.
What a joke. Why does he need to fight against those demonic beasts when he could just fly away?
The moment this thought came to his mind, he immediately bent his knees and jumped into the air, intending to fly away, but the moment he jumped up, a crushing pressure descended upon him, unlike anything that he had ever faced.
In that instant, Yang Ze's face changed drastically as he fell face-first onto the ground.
"What the hell?" For the first time, Yang Ze's heart was filled with incomparable terror. Since the day he came to this world, he hadn't felt something as monstrous as this. It was as if he were a mere insect.
*Gulp
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Yang Ze controlled his riling emotions as he stood up with some difficulty while looking around him cautiously. But other than the sound of footsteps coming closer, he couldn't see anything else. Even the monstrous pressure upon his body disappeared once he fell down.
Yang Ze didn't know what was going on, but one thing was clear… flying away was not an option anymore.
Gritting his teeth, he took a deep breath and readied himself to face the horde of beasts rushing towards him for some unknown reason.
