After a while,
Tang Ming observed and regulated the protection talisman attached to the cave walls, replaced the burned ones, and renewed the energy inside them.
'It's been two months, and I have been regularly filling these protection talismans with my mana; my cultivation progress also slowed down a lot because of it,' Tang Ming thought to himself, replacing a talisman. Instantly, whole cave walls flickered with net-like protection arrays and symbols.
"Brother, here, drink some water." Tang Hua appeared beside him with a smile and passed him a dark bowl filled with muddy water from the pond.
Tang Ming glanced at her petite physique and pale complexion. He sighed, grabbed the water bowl, and drank. After a few gulps, he returned it and thanked.
'Let it affect my practice. I can't let my little sister do any harm. I will keep her safe from all kinds of danger. Wait, why am I sleepy?' Tang Ming thought firmly, then slowly he felt his eyelids were getting heavier and closed his eyes in a while and slept peacefully.
Tang Hua glanced at him for a while, then cryingly muttered, "Brother, I can't be a burden to you anymore; I want you to live your life without any fear." Then she rubbed away her eyes and hurriedly searched for the key of the entrance boulder in Tang Ming clothes.
After a while, she found it.
Tang Hua raised her hand, looking at the black jade lying on her palm, and then glanced at the Tang Ming, who spoke, "Brother, I have given you sleeping agent I made with some special abyss leaves you brought; it will help you sleep peacefully for a while; I know you haven't slept for months."
She caressed Tang Ming's cheek, took a deep breath, suppressing her urge to cry again, turned around, and walked toward the entrance calmly, clearing her eyes away again and again.
After attaching the jade to the boulder, it shook and opened silently. Tang Hua walked outside, then glanced at the opened entrance calmly. She put the jade on the boulder in order to close the entrance. Just after it moved, she threw it inside the cave.
...
After a while,
Inside the rocky mountains, near the Tang resident cave,
Steps!!!
Hurried footsteps sounded, Tang Hua running away, taking deep breaths.
Creak!!!
Trembling!!!
Feeling the ground trembling and hearing an abyss monster's sharp creaking noises, a pentasaurus-shaped monster is chasing her, emitting sound with his disgustingly opened mouth.
Tang Hua glanced behind her, 'Although I knew I would die outside, these monsters are more horrible than what my brother told me,' she thought to herself, suppressing her fear while running away.
Thud!!!
Next moment, her foot stuck in a vine and stumbled and fell on the ground.
"Arghhhh," She exclaimed painfully and turned around, seeing the vine coiling around her leg, and it had barbs that pierced through her skin.
'What if she is still alive? Although it seems impossible, what if? Then she will become alone; also, I haven't taken revenge. If she were here, she would definitely not let me waste my life like that,' a thought flashed through my heart, and then the sword fell on the ground.
"What should I do? Ahhhhhhh," Tang Ming roared, and then his cries echoed in the whole surrounding area, alarming all abyss monsters.
...
Time passed, After staying near the cave residence for months,
Tang Ming gave up the hope of Tang Hua living, wielded his sword again, and left. He started practicing and hunting the abyss monsters like madmen.
On the other hand,
Lin Lee, sitting at the edge of a steep cliff, glanced at the pod floating beside him, with Tang Hua sleeping inside.
'It's been months she has been in a coma. Anyway, I won't help her; it's her test. If she wakes up, then it means she wants to live; if she doesn't, then in a few more months she will sleep eternally,' he thought and then glanced at the abyss monster lair below.
There are uncountable monsters. He raised his hand toward the lair below.
Instantly, nanobots spread and covered everything below, devouring all the abyss monsters.
Lin Lee felt huge feedback in his body. Sitting cross-legged, he closed his eyes and started absorbing the feedback.
33rd cell universe,
34th cell universe,
35th cell universe,
36th cell universe,
Instantly, his body shook, and his realm broke through the Great Immortal 3rd layer. Lin Lee's consciousness also expanded to 36 miles around.
As Lin Lee expected, each cell universe is increasing his consciousness a mile in the upper worlds; in the lower worlds, his consciousness can now cover 36 universes.
Feeling the feedback in his body hasn't exhausted yet. 'It seems I have encountered a huge lair of abyss monsters,' he thought, and he started absorbing the feedback again, opening the cell universe one by one.
37th cell universe,
40th cell universe,
45th cell universe,
After opening the 45th cell universe, the feedback was exhausted, and all the abyss monsters in the lair below disappeared.
