Chapter 2051 - 1623: Crossing the Sheer Cliff—Is It Courage or Luck?

  • Next Chapter

"Hey, hey, hey! What kind of prey are you hunting? What are you probing? You even said I’m timid, but you’re even more timid than me!" Baby Jin Bao saw this and immediately scoffed, "This Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms is clearly just a trick technique, it’s just done so intricately that we can’t understand it. As long as you are bold, you can cross it. Look at how scared you are!"

Baby Jin Bao said this while rolling his eyes dramatically.

At last, he found the excuse to avenge being called a coward earlier!

"I’m not timid, just being cautious for safety," Gu Changsheng replied calmly, not bothered by the words.

"You say it like it’s the truth; anyway, I don’t believe it. You are timid and cowardly!" Baby Jin Bao snorted, hopping around on the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms several times, then sat down cross-legged...

One has to say, someone just floating easily and comfortably in mid-air is truly a surreal scene!

After all, below him, there was nothing, only the Broken Cliff, unfathomable!

Gu Changsheng wasn’t bothered by Baby Jin Bao’s antics. How could Baby Jin Bao’s small vengeful thoughts escape Gu Changsheng’s sharp eyes?

Her caution wouldn’t be dispelled just because of a few mocking words from Baby Jin Bao!

Yuan Bao left quickly and returned just as fast. Seeing Yuan Bao carrying a wild chicken over, Gu Changsheng unhesitatingly threw the chicken in the direction where Baby Jin Bao was!

The chicken flapped its wings in the air, emitting a sharp cry, and landed beside Baby Jin Bao amidst his panicked state...

Gu Changsheng watched the chicken flapping beside Baby Jin Bao, squinting her phoenix eyes...

Indeed, it didn’t fall!

This Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms truly holds a deeper mystery!

Things with vitality do not fall off!

Gu Changsheng kicked another stone down the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, further affirming this idea!

"Seems like it’s truly a high-level trick technique..." Gu Changsheng mused but didn’t act.

Meanwhile, the Soul-Devouring Python, as if sensing its feeder’s worries, hesitated and then slowly extended half its snake body past the edge of the cliff...

Soon, the Soul-Devouring Python confirmed there was no risk of falling for its snake body!

Next was Duo Shu, the Black Man Duo Shu being a man of action, glanced at the somewhat timid Yuan Bao, and then without hesitation walked toward Baby Jin Bao...

"Black Man! Hey! Black Man, be careful! If you fall, you’ll be crushed to pieces!" Yuan Bao shouted instantly, seeing this.

Gu Changsheng heard Yuan Bao’s shout and couldn’t help but roll her eyes dramatically.

Could she really not sense her Yuan Bao’s fear?

Luckily, Yuan Bao was the first, because if it were Little Monk Bu Jie, Gu Changsheng honestly wouldn’t know what to do!

She clearly remembered that her Little Monk Bu Jie was the most fearful of heights!

Though Gu Changsheng wasn’t afraid of heights, she nonetheless felt something was amiss with the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms...

Duo Shu safely reached and stood beside Baby Jin Bao, becoming the second person to float...

Then was Jin Linchuan, followed by Shi Wujue...

Even Yuan Bao was hesitant but still wore the face of a brave warrior, and went toward Baby Jin Bao...

"Master, Madam, it’s really okay!" Yuan Bao called out breathlessly to Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu, standing on the edge of the cliff. He felt as if he was walking on a clear path, despite the seemingly bottomless cliff beneath him.

Zhou Mu heard this and slightly nodded, then turned to look at the little woman beside him, slowly extending his hand...

Gu Changsheng looked at Zhou Mu’s extended hand, shook her head, signaling him to go ahead...

Though she’s not afraid of heights, at this moment, Gu Changsheng felt inexplicably uneasy!

Though she wasn’t afraid of heights and was bold, for some unknown reason, she just didn’t want to take another step forward.

Rejected by his little woman, Zhou Mu’s expression remained unchanged, calmly stepping into the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms. The sensation of being supported underneath made Zhou Mu’s face, resembling a Divine Residence, show a slight smile. He took two more steps forward, turned back, and extended his hand to Gu Changsheng again...

"Uh, let me think about it..." Gu Changsheng looked at the hand extended from his own evildoer, holding his forehead, hesitating.

"Don’t worry, I’m here." Zhou Mu smiled silently at Gu Changsheng.

"It’s not about whether you’re here or not, but, are you sure there’s no problem with this Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms?" Gu Changsheng frowned, not knowing why she, who never had fear of heights, would hesitate before this cliff.

Apparently, her evildoer and the others went up without issues, yet she just felt uncertain!

It was an intuition, and Gu Changsheng had an inexplicable trust in her own intuition...

"Hahaha... didn’t expect you to be so timid, makes this Baby laugh!" Baby Jin Bao saw Gu Changsheng like this and immediately laughed mischievously, pointing at her, laughing till he leaned forward and backward, "You said I was timid, looks like it’s you! I told you long ago, this cliff is not dangerous, as long as you have courage, anyone can get past it, haha..."

"Are you sure this only tests courage? Not looks?" Hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately spoke sheepishly, "Let me tell you, my luck has never been good, Heavenly Father seems to dislike me, what if the moment I go up, I fall down, what then? You gonna pay up?"

"Didn’t they go up without issues? Can’t you tell, this cliff, anything with vitality that goes up won’t fall down, it’s just a trick technique, testing courage!" Baby Jin Bao held his belly as he laughed himself to exhaustion, speaking as if it was a serious matter, "They all went up without problems, how could something happen once you go up? You’re just good at making excuses for your timidity!"

Gu Changsheng hearing this, was suddenly a bit speechless, under Zhou Mu’s waiting hand and Baby Jin Bao’s taunts, she finally steeled her heart, deciding to just go!

Dang it, better to die sooner and reincarnate; it’s unreasonable that everyone is fine going up, but something would happen to her!

If Yuan Bao’s expression when walking up that cliff was of a brave warrior never returning, then Gu Changsheng’s expression at this moment, felt like the winds sweeping over the cold waters!

Really had that feeling of throwing caution to the wind!

Squeezing her eyes shut tightly, Gu Changsheng finally lifted her foot, taking a difficult first step!

But, by the second step, Gu Changsheng was much more determined, because she was only three steps away from the edge of that cliff, hesitating more, where else to hesitate?

But then...

But Gu Changsheng still stopped her movement when her foot stepped out onto the cliff, with her foot hanging in the air, her posture not settled, she looked at Baby Jin Bao and the others, unable to help a twitch at the corner of her mouth, and spoke again, "Uh, I’m alive, I have vitality, right?"

Why was her heart so restless?

She clearly wasn’t afraid of heights!

"Haha... Are you alive?" Baby Jin Bao was already laughing till he was out of breath.

"Uh... I also think I’m alive, oh my god I can still breathe..." Gu Changsheng twitched her nose, awkwardly responding, finally she tentatively lowered her extended foot...

When her toe touched the spot where that cliff and the ground were level, Gu Changsheng felt a faint buoyancy below her foot, and her anxious heart relaxed a bit, but, she didn’t dare to be careless, her whole body was taut, always prepared to immediately back off if anything went wrong!

Anyway, she’s not far from being suspended in mid-air right now, with her cultivation, even if she does fall, climbing back up wouldn’t be a problem!

But, the thing Gu Changsheng worried about didn’t happen!

Everything was normal!

Just like when Baby Jin Bao and the others walked over the cliff!

"Oh my god, scared me to death, good thing nothing happened!" After walking to Zhou Mu’s side, Gu Changsheng patted her chest, couldn’t help expressing her lingering fear.

She wasn’t afraid of heights, but her luck, she really had no confidence in it!

Now, no falling, she could finally put her anxious heart back inside her stomach!

"Alright, let’s go." Seeing this, Zhou Mu couldn’t help but chuckle lightly, taking the first step forward.

Gu Changsheng followed behind, unable to help but sigh every three steps, "So amazing, this trick technique is really clever, even managed to make such an authentic-looking cliff amidst mountains..."

"Behave, stay close to me." Zhou Mu turned back, worriedly reminding her.

"Mhmm." Gu Changsheng responded with a smile.

The group thus walked on this cliff, suspended in mid-air, Gu Changsheng slowly walked in the last position, feeling this experience was novel, couldn’t help but look left and right, clicking her tongue in wonder...

Except, Gu Changsheng failed to notice, behind her, along her path, the originally transparent air seemed to come alive suddenly, like ripples in water, circles of ripples faintly appearing, continuously spreading and following Gu Changsheng’s footprints, spreading, expanding...

"Jin Bao, you say, is this cliff ten thousand fathoms high, or ten thousand fathoms long? When will we finish walking?" As Gu Changsheng walked, she carelessly asked a question, even though, walking in suspension, feeling like stepping on flat ground was new, there was always an unsettling feeling, couldn’t compare to the solid comfort of walking on firm ground, and just as she asked this question, at that moment, at her feet...
