Chapter 58 - Door After A Door

hallway after another, I pass them like the wind, my legs surpassing their own limit running with all of their guts to escape.

the situation is unknown, this place is unknown, can anyone explain to me how come the mansion turned unto a hospital !! the walls are decayed, my nose is inhaling a puff of dust in each inhale, the silence is roaming like a tiger waiting to jump on its prey.

'tap'

'tap' 'tap'

I run and run without looking behind me, of course, I finally stopped because I was tired, I'm no machine without mentioning that I'm worst than a human when it comes to running, I decide to enter the room next to me to hide in, when I opened the door I heard a gasping sound that made my back sweaty, "don't tell me there is a monster here too?!!"

I turn around to leave the room. but a hand-pulled me away, I was about to scream but then a hand shut me up, I tried resisting but quiet down when the woman whispered into my ear,

"shhh, the monster is here", I look behind the table to see a humanoid shadow from the door's glass.

shiver hit me pretty hard that my legs and hands couldn't stop shaking, I sit back obediently, this time the hand left my mouth so I could take a look at the person who saved me, the darkness hid most of her body but the reflection of the light coming out from the hallway did not hide her thick eyebrows and sharp eyes, she also excluded an aura that belongs to the strong.

the shadow has already left but to make sure the case is so we sit still waiting for a while, after all, movies have taught me is that monsters and ghosts are cunning and have the tendency to jumpscare when the least you expect it.

"it's ok now", the woman beside me says

"excuse me !! can you tell me what's going on? there was an earthquake and I lost consciousness, when I woke up I found myself here ", I spill the whole sentence in fear she leaves without listening to me

after she stood up, she looks down at me, "unlucky, I do not know the detail but the voice said we are in a trial game mode, apparently, the winners get the chance to enter the tower.", she unexpectedly explained it to me patiently

"tower?"

"that's not important, we just need to stay alive and accomplish some quests to get points "

"can...-an i go with you?", my voice barely came out because I really felt shameless to depend on her like an evildoer' is what Erha thought totally forgetting how shameless he was when he depended on Li Xiang all the time and especially when they just met.

the woman looked at the silly girl filling with her white head down and couldn't help but smile, she didn't think the girl was shameless at all, it's only natural to want to depend on the strong what do they call it again 'hug a tight'?besides she can feel that she's well intentional and not mean bad.

"you can follow me just try not to drag me "

"don't worry, my sonic attacks can hurt them and my strings can hold it down for a little bit ", I start showing off my worth.

this time the woman was shocked because the voice has already made it clear that the creatures here can not die, so to make it fair for us these creatures senses were reduced, of course, some people tried, unfortunately, they did not live for too long, so hearing that the girl can hurt them but also restrain them made her esthetic, unexpectedly she was the one who found a golden tight!!!

together with this girl can definitely complete the special scenario !! and get the ultimate prize!!

the sudden realization and excitement let the adrenaline rush up that she grabbed Erha's shoulder and shook him like a cocktail, "great!! this is so great!! we can definitely win this together !" she cries out

I put both my hands on her mouth to shut her up," shush", realizing what she just did, she turns her head in both directions in bewilderment then sighs from relief

"I'm called Luo Ming ", when Luo Ming introduced herself the light flickered slightly from the room and so I could finally see her, toned muscle form and verge into defined, well-built curves often visible through her casual sleeveless blacktop, obviously a strong woman

"I'm Erha Allen"

we looked at each other and for some reason, we found it funny so we quietly laughed for a moment, directly hitting it off together.

inside the cabin Li Xiang was still sitting cross-legged surrounded by a visible red aura like flames, tempering his body constantly without stopping, strengthening, evolving that he almost felt inhuman.

the blood had already washed his marrow and veins which wasn't that complicated but that was only the first step to making his body ready to handle the tempering, so after the painful tempering of flesh, bones, meridians...he'll have to integrate his spirit weapon into his body, this is the first step for this cultivation practice, one uses the spiritual weapon as a medium to facilitate the connexion with earth and heaven, so choosing the right weapon is necessary for a stable foundation, the best the weapon the close you will absorb the earth and heaven's qi.

for the time being Li Xiang doesn't have anything he calls worth using except the obsidian stone and the taboo's blood, he had long scraped a small chunk the size of finger tumb of the Poseidon stone which took him a lot of effort.

after he finishes tempering his body he planned to use the method told inside the book and refine both the blood and stones scraped together.

the tempering was going well but for some reason, he felt a bad omen but he decides to ignore it, he can only continue and put everything behind, leaving the operation halfway will backlash instantly killing me, so even if Erha is in danger or I am, I can do nothing about but make sure to finish safely soon and go to his rescue, besides he's not that nervous after all he still believes his koi fish, lucky and has many methods to escape

remembering the face of the fish who's the most afraid of death the corner of Li's mouth curves up.

"he'll survive"
