562: Queue up the mountain
The rain outside showed no sign of stopping.
And it was in this quiet atmosphere that tremendous changes were happening within Li Hong!
The medicinal power of the five Essence Cultivation Pills was like five nuclear bombs dropped inside his body.
They exploded, producing power as vast as an abyss!
Almost instantly, the innate ability evolving in his mind began to frantically absorb this energy!
A large amount of medicinal power continuously poured towards his brain.
However, the area around Li Hong's heart.
At this moment, it remained silent and still, without the slightest change.
The medicinal power containing vast spiritual energy was continuously being absorbed by the innate ability in his brain.
Its devouring and absorption were very fast!
But, the medicinal power of those five Essence Cultivation Pills plus the previous one, a total of six solid Essence Cultivation Pills, was simply too much!
The innate ability in the brain that was constantly devouring the medicinal power could not possibly absorb it all in a short time!
Time passed, until ten minutes had gone by.
After the medicinal power of two full pills had been absorbed by the brain, the position of Li Hong's heart, that heart which had been silent all along, finally reacted with a reflex arc that circled the earth.
A faint devouring force slowly emerged!
And that large mass of medicinal power also produced another output besides the medicinal power flowing into the brain!
The power devoured by the heart gradually grew stronger amidst its faintness.
In just a few minutes, this devouring force had become so immense that the medicinal power of those pills could no longer hold out!
Until the end.
The two organs each divided two and a half pills' worth of medicinal power.
At the same time, another peculiar innate ability emerged from Li Hong's heart.
After the medicinal power was completely absorbed, A Man slowly opened his eyes.
Li Hong woke up!
At the same time, he could feel an extremely powerful force surging out from within him!
"What's going on? This power..." Li Hong had a clear feeling; he felt as if he was re-experiencing the sense of power feedback he got when he first activated his innate ability!
Compared to before, this feedback power was many times stronger!
If the innate power he could sense from his previous awakened ability was only the size of a ping pong ball, now, it was at least the size of a basketball!
That was another force, a force originating from the heart?
With a clear mind, Li Hong could sense that for some reason, he had two innate abilities within him!
One was the earliest one, the ability to rub bombs by hand, which had now been developed to the point where he could rub out firecrackers.
And there was another one... Li Hong couldn't sense the specifics for now.
What exactly was going on?
A Man was filled with confusion and shock at this moment.
Besides activating a second innate ability, he also felt that his body no longer had that previous feeling of weakness!
Everything felt extremely good!
It was just his mouth...
He licked the residual pill residue on his teeth with his tongue, the sticky sensation combined with the strange smell in his mouth, like he had eaten feces and urine.
"See, I told you my pills would definitely work, didn't he wake up?" Li Hongda's casual voice emerged.
"Hong!" The woman was overjoyed and wept when she saw her husband wake up.
"Dad?!" Turning his head to look at the 'savage' next to him, Li Hong felt a chill in his heart while asking somewhat uncertainly.
After a brief observation, Li Hong's eyes immediately turned red: "Dad! You're not dead!"
"Do you hear yourself? Is that how a person talks?" Li Hongda said with a dark face and slight anger.
"Oh, Dad!" This Middle-aged man, after confirming that his Father was truly still alive, immediately started wailing.
After recovering, Li Hong got out of bed and looked at Li Hongda: "Dad, don't be afraid, now that I'm here, no one in this School can do anything to you!"
"We'll go down the mountain now and go home!" A Man's words were full of seriousness.
"Go down the mountain and go home?" Li Hongda's eyebrow twitched: "Am I sick? Go down the mountain with you and go back, not doing Immortal Cultivation?!"
"Dad, stop lying to me, I know everything. When you called yesterday, you actually wanted us to come and rescue you, right?" Li Hong said with tears in his eyes: "It's okay now, I'm here, and you don't have to pretend anymore."
"I even brought bodyguards, no one in this School dares to stop us!"
Li Hong said, gesturing towards the three bodyguards behind him.
"Bodyguards?" Li Hongda looked at the few guys sitting upright and looking straight ahead, and shook his head speechlessly.
"I called yesterday just to have you come and sign, what strange things are you thinking?" Li Hongda said, and then took out a contract-like document from his person.
"Here, sign it."
"What is this?" Li Hong picked up the contract in confusion, flipped through two pages, and his mouth twitched slightly.
He felt as if he was seeing a five or six-year-old Child holding a magic wand and chanting spells at him, and he had to cooperate by falling down.
"Dad, you're sick..."
"Thud!" Li Hongda gave his son a chestnut on the head: "You turtle son, you were just sick and almost died, and as soon as you wake up, you say the Old Master who saved you is sick?"
"Hurry up and sign it, and then leave quickly."
"I called you to sign a paper, not only did you bring so many people, but you also wasted my Cultivation time."
"Hiss!" Covering his head, Li Hong gasped while bending over in pain.
It wasn't that he hadn't received chestnuts from the Old Master before, but why did this one hurt so much?
He was a Talent, even if he hadn't formally Cultivated for a few days, his physical strength was much stronger than before.
This level of pain shouldn't be happening.
After a while.
Li Hong finished signing.
And despite his strong arguments, Li Hongda still didn't agree to leave with him.
Instead, he happily took the signed summoning contract and walked away on his own.
It was also when Li Hong saw that the so-called tombs and coffins in the Back Mountain actually contained living people that he let out a long sigh of relief.
So it wasn't what he thought.
It's just, isn't it abnormal for these people to be lying in coffins?
Could it be adapting in advance?
In confusion, he was eventually chased down the mountain by Li Hongda.
"Dad really just called us to sign?" On the cable car, Lin Yue's wife covered her mouth and chuckled when she saw her husband's expression of utter despair.
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Li Hong said defiantly: "Dad is concerned about us!"
"He definitely wanted to keep us there to accompany him, but he didn't want us to delay our business because of his matters!"
"That's why he was in such a hurry to have us leave."
"Yes, yes, you're right." Lin Yue's wife said with a smile, covering her mouth.
"Why are you always covering your mouth and nose?"
"It smells a bit." The woman replied.
...
Among the mountains.
A young man with a telephone in his pocket was looking blankly at the cable car area.
His name is Xiao Bai, and he came because Laobai called him last night to sign something at the School.
He originally thought it was just a very ordinary trip, but now, he was lost!
Being lost was one thing, but it also started raining!
It was raining, and not having an umbrella wasn't a big deal, but just now, he fell directly into the small stream next to him.
His telephone was waterlogged and broken, but he also discovered an extremely terrifying thing!
If he remembered correctly, he had been walking along the river.
After all, this way he wouldn't lose direction.
But each time, he still ended up back where he started.
Of course, this wasn't the terrifying part.
What made Xiao Bai feel horrified was that when he fell into the water just now, he saw a footprint on the muddy ground next to him!
To say there was a footprint, isn't that quite normal? After all, there was a muddy path along the stream, and where there's a path, people definitely walk.
However, what almost made Xiao Bai collapse was that this footprint wasn't left a long time ago at all!
This was a new footprint!
It was as if there were other people present right next to him!
But Xiao Bai was clearly certain that he had walked this path before.
He was even familiar with this area!
This place was completely empty except for him, and he remembered all the footprints on the muddy ground he had walked on. This footprint was left just before, even less than a few minutes ago!
How could there be other people! Was it a Ghost?!
Or some kind of spiritual body alien beast that the Captain mentioned? But alien beasts don't wear shoes!
Then it's a Ghost?!
Xiao Bai's face was full of panic.
He hadn't awakened his innate ability yet, and at this moment, he was almost no different from an ordinary person. If he really encountered something unclean, what should he do?!
But it seems... he already has!
Taking a step, the young man ran frantically towards the cable car station in the distance.
Although he had tried to walk towards that area many times without success, at this moment, this was the only thing Xiao Bai could do.
Only then could he have some psychological comfort!
As he ran, Xiao Bai ran faster and faster.
With a 'thump', the young man fell to the ground again.
Covering his sprained ankle, Xiao Bai's face was full of pain.
"Boom!" Under the rumbling thunder, heavy rain poured down from the gloomy sky.
Clutching his foot with a painful expression, Xiao Bai, in a trance, seemed to see a figure!
"Is it a Ghost? No, no! I'm just passing by, just passing by!" Xiao Bai shouted in panic.
After shouting twice, seeing the other party standing motionless in the heavy rain, Xiao Bai's heart felt another surge of fear followed by anger.
"Come on! I'm not afraid of you! I am a member of the Wei Shi Alliance, a mere Ghost, do you think I will put you in my eyes?!"
Xiao Bai's angry roar was also clear in the rain.
It was at this moment that the figure behind the bushes actually walked over.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Bai's eyes widened slightly, and his heart pounded wildly.
Holy crap, it's really coming?
"What are you yelling about?" Lǐ Sǔn, wearing a raincoat, looked at the guy in front of him who was like a fool in the heavy rain, his face full of confusion.
"Don't lean over here on a rainy day, there's water flow, you'll drown in a bit."
Lǐ Sǔn frowned and called out.
As a cable car operator in the mountains, he also took responsibility for safety incidents in the mountains.
