Chapter 63: Firmness
The storm drain leads directly to the sea, and the violent rain gathers into a flood, instantly flooding the streets.
The flood is everywhere, and it's coming extremely fast.
In low-lying areas, it flows directly into underground drainage channels.
Rapid water, carrying the transformed Black Turtle of Chu Wind, moves swiftly through the drainage channel.
The outlet of this drainage channel leads directly to a famous river in Pinghai City, Guhe River.
The water of the Gu River flows into the sea.
Thus, Chu Feng was carried by the water flow all the way and was sent into the ocean.
His injuries were severe, so severe that he had fallen into a coma.
However, he was lucky enough to transform into a Black Turtle at the last moment, successfully avoiding suspicion of murder and also triggering the innate skill of the Black Turtle, Turtle Breath.
Under the turtle breathing technique, Chu Wind entered a state of suspended breath, so he naturally didn't fear the torrent.
The flood was rushing, but after entering the sea, it was quickly weakened.
At the intersection of the sea and the Jiao River, the black turtle transformed by Chu Wind stopped there, and the weak water flow could no longer carry his body forward.
The rapid flood in front, however, stirred up a large amount of mud and sand, which rolled over and buried Chu Feng within.
Only Chu Feng could no longer feel any of these things, his consciousness had sunk into endless darkness.
In an instant, there was no way out, only a boundless darkness.
He didn't know where was ahead and didn't know where the road was.
Dazed and confused, he suddenly wondered where he was going and what he was doing.
All around was darkness and a silence as of death; no one could answer his questions.
Since there was no road, Chu Feng calmed down instead, quietly thinking about what he really wanted.
When he was very young, he had many ideals. However, when he grew up, those ideals seemed childish and laughable.
When he went to college, he was still full of longing and confusion about society. But when he really entered the society, he realized that ideals are so fragile and vulnerable.
Until one day, I got a ring and arrived at the Heavenly Junkyard, everything changed.
Hoping for rebirth, but have you lost yourself?
He slowly thought, accompanied by endless darkness.
Chaotic thoughts, noisy ideas, and demonic temptations all flash around me, filled with dazzling colors.
Left and right, forward and backward?
Chu Feng's heart was in disarray.
Eyes gazing blankly, slowly turning left and right, front and back, hands slowly stretching out, what exactly do you want to grasp? What exactly do you want to hold onto?
I don't know, I don't understand.
In the silent darkness, there is no direction, no goal, only an unknown world, and those countless unclear, unspoken desires.
Desires turned into a myriad of colorful dreams, floating around Chu Feng's body. Inside, there were also seductive voices, softly calling out to him. Moreover, there were beauties that he couldn't even imagine, waving at him and beckoning him over. Additionally, there was the dazzling glow of fame and wealth, shining brightly before his eyes.
……
……
The bewildered daze gradually faded away, replaced by a firm heart.
Like a flash of lightning, it tore through the eternal darkness and opened up a path of light.
"Rumble..." The temptation transformed from countless thoughts, with the fall of this flash of lightning, all dispersed and turned into nothingness, merging into the darkness, leaving no trace.
My life is in my own hands, I walk my own path!
The light of freedom was a flash of lightning that had no equal, and wherever it passed, darkness melted away. A bright path suddenly appeared before Chu Feng's eyes.
He strode forward with big steps, and the distance that had seemed unreachable before was now just a few paces away.
The end was a door made of light, Chu Feng stretched out his hand and gently pushed it open, but unexpectedly the seemingly solid and heavy door opened with just one push.
Chu Feng took a step forward.
……
"Ah......" His whole body ached and was sore all over, and it was pitch black, making Chu Feng extremely uncomfortable for a moment.
Am I still in a dream?
He whispered to himself, wanting to raise his hand to pat his forehead, but encountered resistance when he raised his hand.
Not in a dream!
Chu Feng suddenly understood and his heart was stirred with excitement.
Just excitement aside, yet another wave of confusion, if it's not in a dream, then where is this dark silence?
The fine mud and sand blocked the air circulation, and when I was practicing qigong, I didn't feel it at first, but after waking up from qigong, I quickly felt that there was not enough oxygen.
"Sigh..."
Chu Feng took a deep breath in a dramatic fashion, but instead of inhaling the air into his mouth, he sucked some mud from around him into his nostrils.
"Cough..."
He gave a mighty snort and the mud and sand he had inhaled were blown out of his nostrils.
Still just hypoxia.
Chu Feng was extremely depressed in his heart. Could it be that he didn't die at the hands of Yu Yang, but instead died such a miserable death?
It's just air but he doesn't care about his thoughts, getting less and less, oxygen deficiency is more serious.
In a state of extreme hypoxia, the true energy in Chu Feng's body was circulating slower and slower.
It's almost a conditioned reflex of its own.
Finally, everything had reached a critical point. Chu Feng's consciousness was somewhat blurry and he could no longer bear the suffocating feeling of being on the verge of death.
The speed of the true energy flowing throughout his entire body had slowed down to almost several times its normal speed.
The body was stuffy and the true energy stagnated. Everything finally could no longer be resisted. In a daze, Chu Feng let out a loud roar: "Open!"
A thunderous roar, like a giant axe splitting the sky, one swing avoided heaven and earth, but this swing of his had avoided the darkness in front of him.
The true energy inside the body was like a bomb, bursting out violently in an instant.
Bang...
The true energy is like a rainbow, and it bursts open in an instant.
The mud and sand around were blown away, and the black turtle transformed by Chu Feng finally appeared on the seabed, coming into contact with the seawater.
The air of life merged into the seawater and directly poured into the mouth and nose of the black turtle.
"Hmm..."
Chu Feng slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, and the true energy within his body also recovered its normal flow rate.
It was just that Chu Feng could clearly feel it, his cultivation had increased significantly and had already reached the early stage of the fourth layer of the Yellow Rank, impacting the middle stage.
As long as he broke through that layer of paper, he could reach the middle period, but he also knew that this was difficult and couldn't be forced, so he slowly ran for several weeks, and after his physical strength was restored, he slowly swam out of the sea.
On the sea surface, Chu Feng looked around and made sure there was no one, then transformed back into human form and slowly walked towards the city.
His heart was still in a state of anxiety, had Yu Yang's matter been discovered by others?
……
He didn't think that the sudden heavy rain and his transformation into a black turtle to save his life would make him unrelated to this matter.
Afterwards, Yu Yang's case was defined as him suddenly killing Ding Da and Ding Er before taking his own life.
Allowing Yu Yang to commit suicide was originally a sign of respect from Chu Feng towards a strong martial artist, but unexpectedly it helped him clear himself of suspicion.
But what he didn't expect was that Lin Ruoyi and Qin Fang's unintentional actions would attract the attention of someone who had ulterior motives.
With a focused mind, the Chu wind blew away many distracting thoughts, and he walked towards the villa.
