Chapter 274: Earth Dragon Turning Over!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
Bei Feng did not know how long his mental power had been projected out of his body, but time seemed to have stopped when he was in that state. He could not feel the flow of time at all.
The only difference was that his mental projection was already wrapped in a layer of grayish dark Qi. The outline of the human shaped mental power was already dyed by the Qi to the same color.
The tiny three cun tall human shaped figure was Bei Feng's mental projection!
"Boom!"
When the grayish black Qi had completely seeped into Bei Feng's mental projection body, a loud bang suddenly sounded out in his mind!
The three cun little guy suddenly burst apart, turning into tiny wisps of grayish dark Qi which shot in all directions!
This moment was what Bei Feng had been fearing the most. The instant that the mental projection burst apart, he felt an indescribable pain in his mind!
His consciousness nearly collapsed. If that was all, he would still be fine. But the wisps of mental power had separated into countless tiny pieces which floated about randomly through the mountain!
The tiny wisps of mental power latched onto the grass, mud, dirt, and even the rocks!
Bei Feng suddenly forgot who he was, and what he was doing.
The wisps of mental power only had the basic instinct to survive. Some bits had latched onto the grass and flowers and were trying their best to absorb energy from the ground, while those that had landed on the ground were resisting being absorbed as nutrients!
As time passed, Bei Feng's mental power had been split into countless pieces and were scattered through the entire place!
It was unknown how long it had been, but Bei Feng had long lost all concepts of time.
"Boom!"
"Hou!"
A deafening dragon's roar which strangely couldn't be heard by anyone suddenly rang out!
An inconceivable phenomenon had occurred. At a place of unknown depths beneath the Blue Spirit Mountain range, a several thousand meter long grayish black Earth Dragon the size of a mountain ridge suddenly flipped over in its sleep!
"Pada!"
A small rock began to tremble and rolled off the side of the mountain.
Following that was an intense tremor! An earthquake had appeared!
The higher one was at the time of an earthquake, the stronger the tremor they will experience!
All the villas in the mountain range were built several hundred meters atop mountains, so the tremors these buildings faced were the strongest!
Mystic Moon and the rest hurried out of the villa and looked across the horizon. All the mountains in the area were rumbling fiercely, as though there was a violent wave traveling through them!
Mystic Moon gripped Lin Mei's arm securely and stood her ground. Mystic Three was hugging onto a pillar for dear life, while the Cerberus simply stood firmly with all three heads held high.
This level of earthquake was not worth a mention to the Cerberus and Mystic Moon. But Mystic Three's cultivation was weaker, so he still needed to grab onto something to stabilize himself.
As for Bei Feng, his body was standing solidly atop the mountain peak as though roots had grown out of his feet. No mater how the mountain shook, he remained unmoved!
At the moment that the dragon's roar had sounded out, all of Bei Feng's scattered consciousness seemed to have been jolted awake. In an instant, it all gathered together and shot back to his body at the speed of lightning!
The moment his mental projection returned to his body, Bei Feng instantly felt a warm sensation flooding through him, like he was returning to a familiar home!
There was a saying that the body was a boat, and mental power was the oars. Life was the vast bitter sea that one was on.
Only with an undying conviction and a strong boat and oars could one reach the other end of the sea!
Bei Feng's blood and Qi energy surged naturally and began to revolve through his body the moment the mental projection returned to his body.
"Rumble!"
A sound like a rapid river flowing appeared from Bei Feng's body. His heart pumped powerfully, sending the blood and Qi accelerating through every part of his body!
His blood and Qi was further spurred by his mental power when they passed by his brain, causing his chaotic mental power to slowly awaken!
The earthquake left as quickly as it came. Not even a minute passed and it had already stopped. However, the damage dealt in that one minute was hard to determine.
A mountain in the distance had suffered a massive landslide, and the villa atop it had also collapsed.
No matter how rich one was, or how much power and authority one wielded, everything was useless in the face of a natural disaster!
Bei Feng's mental power had recently awoken, and he felt a slight obstruction when controlling his body. Fortunately, the feeling only lasted a moment and disappeared quickly.
"Hou!" Bei Feng raised his head and roared with all his might! This roar was so loud it reverberated through the entire mountain range!
The roar contained unconcealed joy, the kind of happiness and bliss that came from being alive!
"Ai, this earthquake was too violent. I heard that the mountain at sector 19 had completely fallen apart. There were probably no survivors from that family. That tragic roar... I wonder which family it came from? The poor guy must have lost an extremely important person in the earthquake and is in terrible sorrow to shout like that!"
The people in the few villas closest to Bei Feng's mountain could not help but to shake their heads lightly when they heard the roar.
The shout continued for a full minute before Bei Feng finally stopped. He sucked in a huge breath of fresh air and held it in his lungs for a long time.
"Huu!"
A long white breath as sharp as a sword was spat out of his mouth slowly. The breath shot forward and blasted into a thick tree before him, leaving a large hole in its trunk.
Bei Feng opened his eyes as an archaic and hazy look flashed past his pupils.
After a long time, the hazy look in his eyes finally cleared. However, the archaic look remained in his eyes, as if he was an old man who had lived for a long time and experienced the countless vicissitudes of life.
"How long has it been?"
Bei Feng finally opened his mouth and spoke. At the same time, the fear from the event began to fill up his heart.
If not for the dragon's roar, he might have really lost his mind forever!
He did not know how others broke through to 3 stars with their mental power, but he was quite certain that no one else did so like him!
If everyone used this method to obtain a breakthrough, there would be extremely few people with 3 stars mental power!
He had only managed to do it by pure luck. If he had not been awoken by the dragon's roar, his consciousness would have likely been lost and dissipated!
When he thought back to that huge dragon under the earth, Bei Feng felt even more dazed.
'That's not a real dragon, right? How could there be a dragon here with how thin the Heaven and Earth Ling Qi is here!?' Bei Feng thought with some trepidation in his heart. Although it looked like a dragon, it was the same grayish black and seemed to be made up of the strange Qi that had wrapped up his mental projection.
"Is that the supposed Earth Vein Qi?"
Bei Feng had an inkling that the truth should be closer to his guess.
Divine masters in the ancient times sought out dragons and opened spirit points. The dragons referred to here were Dragon Veins, a type of fortuitous ground!
There were numerous folk tales about Earth Dragons tossing. According to many legends, earthquakes were a result of Earth Dragons turning over in their sleep!
"Oh? You're not dead yet! And you're finally awake; seven days had gone by already!"
Indigestion raised its head and looked at Bei Feng. It had ran up here immediately after the earthquake. As it had been coming up to the mountain peak every night to absorb the moon rays, it had long discovered the weird state Bei Feng was in.
The reason it hurried over so quickly was because it was worried that something might have happened to him during the earthquake. But seeing that he was finally awake, it for some reason, felt some relief.
"Pei! A dog's mouth truly emits no ivory! What kind of words are those?"
Bei Feng's face went black as he looked at the idiotic dog circling him as though it was very surprised to see him alive.
'F*ck his grandpa! If I can't afford to provoke you, this Lord Dog can still avoid you!'
Indigestion stared unhappily at Bei Feng and waddled off with a cold snort.
Bei Feng stayed on the mountain peak and proceeded to inspect his gains from the experience. His mental power had become clearer, as though it had been cleansed of some impurities. The little mental projection figure had also grown from three cun to seven cun!
His circle of perception had also increased to 30 meters!
This was a huge improvement! The increased range to his circle of perception meant that the attack range of the flying dagger had also improved tremendously!
