Chapter 8 provocation

  In the vast and boundless sky, there was a dead silence. Several cotton-like clouds were slowly floating and gradually gathering together to form the image of a voluptuous woman with a curvy figure. From a distance, it seemed that a faceless beauty was standing in the air.

  Suddenly, a dark shadow flew in at an exaggerated speed and plunged into the woman's bulging chest. The wind brought by the high-speed flight immediately rushed in and shredded the clouds piece by piece.

  "Is this... considered groping?" Looking back at the big hole in the chest of the female-shaped cloud in the distance behind, Chen Yue suddenly felt a bit speechless.

  It was the fifth day since leaving Qiya City. According to the driver's introduction, they could arrive at the Free Capital at noon today, which made Chen Yue, who had been rather bored in the air for several days, become a bit interested.

  The dull life in the air was easy to make people tired. On the back of the flying beast, there was only a space of a dozen square meters to move around. After a long time, people would feel itchy all over.

  At first, the extremely fast flying beast really made Chen Yue feel the passion of taking a shuttle in his previous life on Earth. Standing in the air thousands of meters above the ground and overlooking the earth, it was easy for people to have a supreme pleasure of having everything under control. However, as time passed quickly and the novelty wore off, a strong sense of restraint came up. On the flying beast, the space for free movement was too small.

  Every half a day, Chen Yue would ask the driver to land and stay in place for an hour. During this period, he persisted in practicing the "Health Preservation Formula" to relax his muscles and bones and maintain his physical vitality.

  Although he had become an apostle with a high status in this world and seemingly there was no need to practice the "Health Preservation Formula" anymore, after all, no matter how much the body's potential was tapped, could it compare with fighting spirit? However, Chen Yue didn't think so. On the contrary, he practiced more diligently than before.

  He had a strong premonition that what the "Health Preservation Formula" brought was definitely not that simple.

  "Sir, the plain ahead is very suitable for docking. Do you need to land and rest for a while?" The respectful voice of the driver interrupted Chen Yue's thoughts.

  "Okay." Estimating the time, it was also time to rest. Chen Yue nodded noncommittally.

  The speed of the flying beast slowed down obviously and continued to decrease. Under the control of the driver, the flying beast landed safely on a flat ground after a while.

  "I'll be back in an hour." As usual, Chen Yue ordered.

  "Yes." The driver replied in a respectful posture and didn't move until Chen Yue walked away. Even for him, this hour was not just a rest time.

  Flying in the air was extremely exhausting. Feeding and cleaning the flying beast at regular intervals was a basic skill of a driver. Even without Chen Yue's order, he would also ask for regular breaks. Therefore, in his opinion, Chen Yue's offer seemed very reasonable.

  After finding a secluded place, Chen Yue released the frozen rabbit to guard for him. Then, he stretched his limbs and posed one by one.

  The first six poses were successfully posed one by one, and Chen Yue was already sweating all over, but his spirit was not the least bit tired. After staying in place for a while and when resting in the seventh pose, Chen Yue hesitated.

  The reason for hesitation was that something unexpected happened when practicing the seventh pose.

  The first discovery was more than ten days ago. After the successful summoning of the demon, when practicing the "Health Preservation Formula" again, Chen Yue was shocked to find that he couldn't do what he wanted.

  Not to mention the seventh pose that had just been broken through, even when practicing the sixth pose, Chen Yue felt the pressure. That feeling was as if his body was no longer his own and there was an invisible diaphragm in the middle.

  Fortunately, there was no accident in the first five poses. Under Chen Yue's more intensive training, this membrane became thinner and softer day by day.

  Finally, on the second day after leaving Qiya City, the diaphragm was shattered and Chen Yue regained the feeling of mastering everything in his body.

  Only when something is lost and regained can one know its preciousness. Therefore, in the past few days, Chen Yue had always stayed in the sixth pose and didn't dare to launch an impact easily.

  The effect of hard training was obvious. The condition of his body was getting better and better. Infinite essence seemed to permeate every muscle and every cell, which made Chen Yue gradually have the idea of launching an impact.

  "Go for it." Chen Yue clenched his five fingers one by one and felt the power. He made up his mind.

  With the experience of breaking through, it was much easier to do this time. To Chen Yue's surprise, posing the seventh pose was unexpectedly easy.

  Could it be that I was wrong? Chen Yue frowned tightly, but his body naturally maintained the seventh pose.

  A warm current gushed out from his body and gradually spread to every corner of his body. Wherever it went, it made people feel like they were floating in the air.

  Really floating...

  At this moment, Chen Yue suddenly sensed danger. Everything in front of him gradually became blurred and then his body shook as if he was floating up into the air like a rootless duckweed.

  No, his body didn't move and still stayed in place.

  In the sky above, a wisp of cold wind blew, which made Chen Yue sober up and at the same time horrified to discover this fact.

  He could actually see his body in all directions, including his back. And he didn't fly as high as he imagined, only ten centimeters above his head.

  This was a very strange feeling, as if his soul had flown out of his body and stayed above his body.

  Out-of-body experience?

  A thought suddenly flashed through Chen Yue's mind.

  This thought made him shudder.

  The "Health Preservation Formula" emphasized the close unity of the body and the spirit. Now his situation undoubtedly went astray. Moreover, Chen Yue was sure that it should be related to the summoning of the demon. Fortunately, he could arrive at the Free Capital at noon and his doubts might be answered then.

  But the problem now was how he should get down...

  It seemed that sensing Chen Yue's embarrassment, the frozen rabbit on guard suddenly opened the life halo without Chen Yue's order.

  Two bone-chilling blue halos kept flashing, but Chen Yue felt a wisp of warmth spreading to his soul. After another blur, Chen Yue returned to his body and regained control of his body.

  His body was already covered in cold sweat.

  After a simple cleaning, the time had already exceeded one hour and it was time to go back.

  With a gentle wave of his left hand, the frozen rabbit jumped a few times very spiritually and bounced into Chen Yue's arms.

  It seemed that the frozen rabbit was very satisfied that Chen Yue didn't put it into the subspace. Its two eyes narrowed slightly and it looked very happy.

  "This little guy is really not simple." High-level creatures all have extremely high intelligence. Just like the behavior of opening the life halo just now, it was because the frozen rabbit sensed the danger of its master.

  Turning around and walking towards the place where he came from, everything that had just happened flowed through his mind like a slow-motion replay. Chen Yue frowned slightly. The finger that was stroking the frozen rabbit suddenly slipped and brushed over the two seemingly extremely cold life halos. However, as usual, the finger brushed gently as if it hadn't touched anything at all.

  So strange. I clearly felt the warmth just now...

  Was it the ability of the life halo? Shaking his head, Chen Yue threw this thought out of his mind. He knew too little and couldn't make an accurate judgment at all.

  When Chen Yue returned, he had already turned off the life halo. The two flashy halos were too dazzling and looked very ostentatious.

  The driver had already been waiting anxiously. This time, Chen Yue had spent more than an hour, which made him think that something had happened and he was extremely anxious and was just about to go out to look for him. At this time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  After a while, the two of them rode the flying beast and ascended to a height of 100 meters. Usually at this time, due to the strong wind at high altitude, they had to open the magic shield to protect the safety of the seats before continuing to ascend. However, at this time, Chen Yue was thinking about the life halo and didn't make preparations. After commanding the flying beast to stay in place for a while, the driver finally couldn't help but speak out to remind.

  Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, the sky suddenly darkened. Looking up in horror, he only saw a huge dark shadow pressing down heavily.

  "Be careful..."

  A feeling of horror suddenly surged into his heart. Without thinking, Chen Yue threw himself forward with a force on his feet. In his ears, he only heard a sharp tearing sound, which was the sound made when the air was torn and exploded.

  Intense whistling sounds filled his eardrums and then countless gusts of wind pulled at him, almost tearing him off the wide back of the flying beast.

  "Chi." At the moment of the impending collision, the dark shadow rose rapidly. At the moment of interlacing, a sneer came over.

  Grasping the feathers of the flying beast tightly with his fingers, Chen Yue just managed to maintain his balance. Fortunately, he had never relaxed the practice of the "Health Preservation Formula" and his body was full of strength. Otherwise, he would have been thrown out at the beginning.

  Calming down, Chen Yue's eyes were already gloomy.

  If the shield hadn't been opened and he had fallen from a height of 100 meters at this time, there would have been only one end...

  Thinking of the crisis that had just passed by made people shudder.

  "Zi." The semicircular shield was opened and the sky wind was isolated outside. The biggest crisis was lifted and both of them were full of the joy of surviving a disaster. However, the flying beast seemed to be frightened and it took a long time to calm down under the driver's comfort.

  At this time, Chen Yue had the time to look at the perpetrator.

  The flying beast that attacked them had already flown far away and only three small black dots could be seen.

  "Chase after them." Chen Yue didn't say much, but the driver clearly felt the uncontrollable anger in Chen Yue's tone.

  Just now, at the moment of the attack, Chen Yue clearly heard the laughter full of showing off and complacency.

  Was this... considered provocation?
