The Legend of the Devil
Ch. 99 - Training
"Three to the left, two to the right .." said one who was on the verge of despair. He insisted on maintaining the balance on a long bamboo footing, underneath which were two white dragon stealth created by Xiang Yi Bai. The two white dragons would not hesitate to beat him if he fell just once.
It had probably been seven days of relentless training and Xue Zhan's stomach worms had begun to lose their power to revolt. The young man's face was deathly pale, he spread his hands in height and repeated the movements he had repeated thousands of times. Xiang Yi Bai remained dissatisfied with the results of his training.
Just move to the left and jump. But he guarded two deadly demons and held his hunger a week. Xiang Yi Bai who had no heart cooked grilled fish for himself, did not see Xue Zhan half-dead resisting hunger while smelling the scent of food.
Xiang Yi Bai's training was ten or even a hundred times harder than Kang Jian's. The man had gone mad, he had completely proved his point and made Xue Zhan feel death a second time.
"Your movement is like a dancing duck. Repeat a hundred more times before the sun comes down!"
"I can die if this continues, Elder Xiang," Xue Zhan protested at last. He was sure that Xiang Yi Bai would stop him.
"The leaf-boned boy!"
Out of nowhere the nickname appeared, which clearly Xiang Yi Bai's eyes looked back at him with annoyance. "Newly basic training alone complained that it was like being told to split a mountain!"
Xiang Yi Bai created another spiritual beast that was taller than the other two.
"Look at that dragon, once you slip you'll get inside his belly."
"Why is it added?"
"Oh, I want to see it again." Xiang Yi Bai added into the four spiritual beasts without thinking twice - or in fact the man had indeed never thought of doing anything. With so lightly created four spiritual animals at once and the size is fairly large up to sixteen feet.
Xue Zhan stared down in horror, neither daring to protest nor Xiang Yi Bai going to add more.
He chose to continue training while holding the half-dead cob. "Three to the left, two to the right ... Then up, cross-"
While slashing his sword a wind struck his body and made the balance of Xue Zhan disappear. He was pushed back and fell. As his eyes glimpsed Xiang Yi Bai's face, Xue Zhan was sure the man was glaring at him as seen from the idle laughter on his face.
"Elder Xiang!!"
Xue Zhan had actually fallen, his spine was like it was broken when it hit the rocks. The four white dragons fluttered their wings and began to attack Xue Zhan.
"No! I broke my finger! How can I hold a sword with one finger missing?!" panicking Xue Zhan, his screeches rang out in Xiang Yi Bai's ears and forced the man to get up from his laze. He ordered the four spiritual beasts to stay away from Xue Zhan and check the state of the boy himself.
"How can it be broken?"
"I fell down and squeezed my finger until it bent!"
"Let me see. There's nothing wrong with the arrangement of your finger bones." Xiang Yi Bai could not be certain of one hundred percent, but seeing Xue Zhan being so in pain he could not stay silent either. This usually quiet and quiet place turned crowded, even though he had only the arrival of one boy there. Xue Zhan's extremely annoying voice started to make her ears puffy over the past week.
Xue Zhan revealed his bent index finger. "Look, Elder Xiang. It's really crooked. But if you exhale it," Xue Zhan said as he blew his index finger and straightened the finger again without any guilt.
"Help immediately. Hehe."
"Oh well, forgive me!!" xue Zhan screamed in pain, he could no longer bear to practice and the only way was to trick Xiang Yi Bai into coming down.
"Bad kid, toying with parents like his own friend! I have to punish you!"
"It's better to be punished than to practice, it really torments me. At least give me some food. Look, my body is thin like this already like a dried leaf, blown by the wind can go straight to heaven."
"Even if you're starving, you won't die fast. You're the devil. You have more endurance than a human."
Xue Zhan was unwilling to deny because Xiang Yi Bai was right. Before this while still in the Eternal Valley Xue Zhan had been sentenced to whipping hundreds of times but could still survive. Then when stabbed and beaten by dozens of warriors he was still able to survive for some time until finally fell from the abyss.
"But still that's no excuse, I'm really tormented, Elder Xiang. You have absolutely no sense of pity."
Xiang Yi Bai stopped fretting, facing towards Xue Zhan with a meaningful smile.
"So you're hungry?"
Xue Zhan read the suspicious situation and did not want to immediately agree. It had been a week with the Old Monster only one thing that described what he experienced; being tormented inner and physical.
He pointed towards the calm flowing river beside them while speaking more manneredly.
"Then you can catch it yourself."
Xue Zhan stared at the river for a moment, not seeing anything suspicious he nodded. "Okay, Elder Xiang."
He entered the river while carrying a pointed wooden spear in hand, the water was still as thin as his calf but Xue Zhan started to feel something biting his leg.
Late, one of the ferocious sea beasts that had the power of lightning stung Xue Zhan for up to five seconds and instantly made the young man's hair rise. Xue Zhan paused a few times and jumped up and down in pain.
"Well, how? You got?" sahut Xiang Yi Bai from the river bank held back a laugh.
Xue Zhan slowly turned his head towards him while raising a thumb. "Safe." His mouth was emitting a puff of smoke. Then the young man fainted in the water. Xiang Yi Bai laughed before saving him. He muttered for a moment, "Haish reminds me of when I first came to this place. You just saw it on the surface of the water, rotten boy."
When I first came to this place, Xiang Yi Bai was as surprised as Xue Zhan. For decades in it, Xiang Yi Bai got used to it and ended up befriending it with distress.
He cast a glance all over the Precipice of Regret, which had been his friend and enemy for decades. "there is a surface, there is a base. The threat gets bigger the longer you're here. This place won't let you live if you're still this weak."
Seeing Xue Zhan unconscious he started to pity even though the boy was sometimes nosy and noisy.
"It seems this boy is rarely trained. It had been nearly seventeen years of his strength had not developed rapidly. He had more strength than ordinary humans but his development was eleven twelve with them. It's a pity."
Then a horrible smile appeared on his face. "Botten boy, don't expect you to be able to live here quietly."
