《World Of Swords》174 : Li Fengfeng
Advertisement
Hearing the sound of steps behind him Li Fenfang gritted his teeth and punched the wall behind him.
Suddenly, rocks started pouring behind him as he continued running.
"Damn it," shouted Li Fengfang as a rock suddenly hit him in the leg, causing him to fall down, even worse, a few moments after that, a large boulder fell over his leg, causing it to become stuck.
Seeing this, Li Fengfang took out his sword from its sheath before cutting off the leg that was now stuck, before beginning to crawl forward as rocks fell down around him.
But even though the cave seemed to be collapsing, Li Fengfang could clearly hear the sounds of digging from behind him, causing anger to appear on his face.
As he crawled through the cave, Li Fengfang seemed to have finally seen his hope at life.
'Since I can't run like this, then let's even the playing field,' thought Li Fengfang as he decisively began crawling into a tight gap in the wall, rather, after entering the hole, the crawl was not the best word to describe what he was doing.
Right now, Li Fengfang was wiggling his way through the tight hole, as his body did not have enough space to actually move.
After around ten minutes, Li Fengfang's entire body had entered the small hole and began wiggling its way forward.
By now, Li Fengfang, even with his supernatural vision, could barely see anything.
"You would need spiritual sense to be able to see in this place," thought Li Fengfang as he continued traveling through the hole, not stopping for even a single moment.
Twenty minutes later,
Looking at the cultivators who were mining the colapsed wall in front of him, Shi Peng frowned.
"Go faster, we can't let anyone from this branch of the Li clan escape," asked Shi Peng as he also began helping destroy the rocky wall in front of them.

Seven minutes later,
As Shi Peng once again smashed the pickaxe at the rocks, finally, he could see the way forward, but sadly, as soon as that happened, rocks suddenly began falling from the ceiling.
Without warning, Shi Peng picked up the two cultivators before beginning to run away as rocks fell around him.
But even though this was happening, Shi Peng let out a smile as he heard two sounds.
The sound of rock hitting flesh and Li Fengfang's scream.
'Let's see how you escape now,' thought Shi Peng as he watched the collapse from a safe distance away with the two other cultivators.
...
As he felt the rock swallow his other leg, Li Fengfang let out a loud scream as he stopped in his tracks, no longer moving.
But after several moments of brutal pain, a certain thought popped up in his mind.
'Since I have lost one leg and I can't walk normally anymore, will losing a second really matter?' thought Li Fengfang before beginning to once again wiggle forward, ignoring his leg, which was stuck in place.
Even though the pain was greater than before, since he was prepared for it, Li Fengfang did not let out a sound, so as to not alert his pursuers that he was still alive.
After around ten minutes, Li Fengfang had left his second leg behind, now continuing on without legs.
By this point, the sound of rocks loudly falling down around him had caused him to begin hearing a sharp sound, and as he went forward, dust and dirt inevitably entered his eyes.
Now both blind and deaf, Li Fengfang continued forward as some other thoughts entered his mind other than escape.
As he thought about his parents, brother, teacher, and especially his little sister, anger began seething inside Li Fengfang.

Even though his family was part of the Li clan, they were only a distant branch, the first to be abandoned in the brutal war against the Shi clan.
After some time, even these thoughts dulled, as he thought about every single type of revenge he could launch on both the Shi and Li clan for what happened to his family.
Slowly but surely, as Li Fengfang wiggled his way forward, time continued passing.
As he could not see anything from the outside world Li Fengfang had no way of measuring time other than beginning to count seconds.
'864,234 864,234...'
After at least ten days had passed, Li Fengfang was wiggling himself forward much faster than before, as he had already become much thinner as he did not have anything to eat.
But this was not the biggest problem, he, as a cultivator, although not a very powerful one, could survive some time without eating, but ever since the third day had begun, an unquenchable thirst began appearing in Li Fengfang's soul.
'1,134,528, 1,134,52-'
Li Fengfang suddenly stopped counting the seconds in his mind.
Feeling some wind blow on his head from up in front of him, Li Fengfang couldn't help but become reinvigorated.
He then began wiggling himself even faster, like an earthworm, no, compared to Li Fengfang, the vitality of earthworms was tiny.
Suddenly, some light appeared in Li Fengfang's blurry vision, causing him to become even faster, as his body swiftly traveled through the tiny cave, and in what seemed like mere moments, Li Fengfang found himself in an open area.
Hearing the sound of water in front of him Li Fengfang swiftly crawled next to it before using some water to clean his face and his eyes, allowing him to see.
Looking at the lush oasis in front of him, Li Fengfang smiled before beginning to drink some water.
Right now, a lone wolf was staring at Li Fengfang, slightly shaking.
Feeling the sheer and utter raw primal bloodlust coming from the strange beast in front of him, the wolf couldn't help but run away, unwilling to fight it at all.
Not knowing about the wolf that had just run away from him, Li Fengfeng continued peacefully drinking water.
