Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 1057 - 532: Men and Women Should Maintain Proper Distance
However, Lin Beichen did not panic because of this.
After all, he still had various talismans in his hand to deal with the current predicament.
Lin Beichen took out a piece of talisman paper from his bosom, quickly drew several spells on it, then tossed it into the air and shouted, "Swift!"
As his shout fell, the talisman paper instantly started burning, transforming into a streak of fire flying towards Xia Luyao.
Under the illumination of this fire, Xia Luyao's body surprisingly began to rise slowly, floating upward.
She watched her body growing lighter and couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder.
At the same time, she understood Lin Beichen's intention—he wanted to use this spell to lighten her weight, allowing her to float over the electrified fence!
Following Lin Beichen's instructions, Xia Luyao cautiously floated outward.
However, halfway through her float, she suddenly thought of a problem: when the effect of this spell vanished, would she drop straight down, or descend slowly? She couldn't help but look towards Lin Beichen with some concern.
Lin Beichen clearly realized this issue too.
He looked at Xia Luyao, calculating the time silently in his heart.
Then, he decisively opened his arms and shouted to Xia Luyao, "Little apprentice, float to me quickly! I'll catch you!"
Hearing Lin Beichen's firm and warm words, Xia Luyao couldn't help but feel her heart flutter.
She looked at Lin Beichen's broad and solid chest, and her worries instantly vanished like smoke.
She gently drifted towards Lin Beichen, and in the moment when the spell lost its effect, she unhesitatingly dove into his embrace.
However, just when she thought Lin Beichen would catch her steadily, she suddenly felt a sensation of weightlessness strike.
She opened her eyes in confusion, only to find herself lying on the ground, while Lin Beichen stood nearby with an awkward smile on his face.
"Uh... I think it's inappropriate for men and women to interact too closely, so I didn't catch you," Lin Beichen explained with some embarrassment, "But don't worry, it's just a minor injury."
Upon hearing this, Xia Luyao was speechless.
She glared at Lin Beichen, feigning anger as she turned her head away.
Lin Beichen scratched his head, unsure of what to do.
Meanwhile, Wild Ox was fleeing frantically through the jungle with injuries.
Behind him were soldiers relentlessly pursuing him.
Flying Eagle had already paid a huge price to save him.
And now, he could only rely on himself to escape this jungle.
He continuously parted the grass, searching for a place to hide.
However, the roar of vehicles behind him grew increasingly closer, filling him with unprecedented despair.
He knew he had fallen into dire straits, but he still didn't give up even a sliver of hope.
He exerted all his strength to run forward, hoping to find a glimmer of survival.
Yet, when he finally ran out of the jungle and saw the road ahead, he couldn't help feeling a sense of hopelessness.
It turned out that this seemingly dense jungle had so much of it cleared to become a road for vehicles.
And those soldiers were pursuing along this road.
Wild Ox watched the approaching vehicles, a wave of helplessness surged within him.
He knew he had no hope of escaping.
But he was still unwilling to surrender like that. He tightly gripped the gun in his hand, preparing for a final resistance.
Just then, he suddenly heard Lin Beichen's voice.
Although the voice was weak, it clearly reached his ears: "Don't give up, Wild Ox! I'm coming!"
Hearing this, hope surged in Wild Ox's heart.
He looked up and saw Lin Beichen swiftly running towards him.
At that moment, he felt his eyes grow somewhat moist.
He knew he hadn't been abandoned; someone still cared about his life and death.
Thus, he regained his spirit, raised his gun, and fiercely fired at the pursuing soldiers.
He wanted to buy time for Lin Beichen, and a sliver of survival for himself.
Lin Beichen ignored Xia Luyao's resentful gaze, slightly tilting his ear's perception, aided by the perception talisman, capturing the faint rumble in the distance.
Was it the sound of that helicopter? Lin Beichen pondered.
However, the sound seemed different from the helicopter's roar.
Lin Beichen didn't delve deeper, as the matter seemed related to him, deciding to go and investigate.
He glanced at Xia Luyao still lying on the ground, thinking briefly before lifting her onto his back.
In her surprise, Xia Luyao felt a surge of sweetness.
She guessed Lin Beichen might be looking for an excuse to get closer to her.
However, Lin Beichen was upright; he did this simply because he didn't want to leave Xia Luyao alone here.
Plus, he planned to move quickly, so he chose to carry her.
"Hold on tight," Lin Beichen instructed, "We need to quickly find out what they're up to."
Xia Luyao, yet unaware of the seriousness, just nodded obediently.
Immediately, Lin Beichen shot like an arrow into the forest.
His speed was so fast that Xia Luyao felt branches scraping past her body.
At this moment, Xia Luyao's romantic fantasies about Lin Beichen had shattered; she just wanted to bury Lin Beichen somewhere once the mission ended.
She even began imagining the scene of a Daoist family sacrificing to the heavens.
Lin Beichen unknowingly ignored Xia Luyao's thoughts, his heart anxious, feeling it crucial to pursue that troop transport vehicle.
Perhaps it was a cultivator's instinct at work.
He had once divined that this operation bore no danger, therefore he hadn't taken excessive defense measures, holding just a defense talisman.
