After the Mid-Month Gathering, Chen Chuan's days were spent accompanying Little Aunt's family, and using his free ti to actively hone his newly learned Skills. Once he felt proficient, he would seek further guidance from Instructor Wen.
His Divine Sense could initially only be maintained for three hours, but later, it increased to more than four hours, with a gradual increasing trend.
Before the end of the month, he had barely comprehended all the Skills he needed to learn this ti, one-third faster than originally planned.
Going forward, many things were beyond his current grasp, requiring the coordination between Essence Blood and Steady Spirit, a foundation he had yet to solidify.
On this day, after another Resonance transmission, Instructor Wen said, "I have taught you all the basic application Skills, but there is still a distance to complete mastery. This has nothing to do with talent, but rather because you have just entered the Third Limit, and your accumulation is insufficient. When your accumulation increases, you will gradually be able to use it freely."
He smiled and said, "Now I will teach you so special training techniques. Pay attention and watch carefully..."
Because he was still in Divine Sense Resonance, he could feel the Mutated Tissue within Instructor Wen's body being guided and operated in a unique Rhythm.
Then he saw Instructor Wen raise his hand and flick it lightly towards the sky. With a bang, a thunderous roar rang in his ears, echoing in the atmosphere. A cloud of mist seed to appear on the back of his hand, but it quickly dissipated.
"This move is called Cloud Shattering Palm. It's simple and practical. Because it requires a certain amount of Gathering power before striking, it's not common in actual combat. It's usually only used to train the coordination of Mutated Tissue throughout the body, strengthening the ability to integrate one's own Mutated Tissue."
Saying that, Instructor Wen slowly brought his hand back. "While ensuring the power of this move, the shorter the ti it takes to execute it, the stronger the integration ability will naturally be. Did you see my demonstration clearly just now?"
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "I saw it clearly."
Instructor Wen said, "Then you can go back and try it slowly on your own. My guidance for you ends here."
Chen Chuan said, "Thank you, Instructor Wen."
"No need to thank . I was asked by Old He to guide you." Instructor Wen said with a smile, "However, I am very happy to et such an outstanding and excellent junior like you. Young man, go back. We will et again if there is a chance in the future."
Chen Chuan nodded, raised his hand, and gave Instructor Wen a solemn cupped fist salute. Then he turned and left. When he reached the car, he looked back, but Instructor Wen was no longer there. He retracted his gaze, opened the door, sat inside, and drove away.
After returning ho, he spent his ti practicing the newly learned Skills and occasionally going out for gatherings and entertainnt with Ding Jiao and others. After entering the last third of the month, one day at a gathering, a classmate suddenly suggested.
"How about we go to Sunset Cave to have fun?"
But this suggestion was t with opposition from others.
"Are you crazy? Don't you know how many people go there and never co back?"
"Isn't there Little Chuan! Little Chuan is a Martial Artist!"
Chen Chuan shook his head and said, "I don't recomnd going there. Even if I'm skilled, I can only protect myself at most, not everyone."
Sunset Cave is quite famous in Yang Zhi. It is an underground cave, and in the past, many people have entered and never co out. Locals restrain their children from running there. Despite this, many people still go missing every year.
About twelve years ago, an Expedition team from abroad went inside, but none of them ca out.
Because those who died were foreigners, the Great Shun Governnt didn't bother with it at all. But perhaps because of this, it beca famous abroad, and foreign tourists and Expedition teams often ca there. So ca out, and so were trapped inside.
But because of this, so hostels and other related service industries have gradually sprung up locally.
Ding Jiao said dissatisfiedly, "I said, Noodle, why would you think of such a bad idea?"
The classmate called Noodle said, "The other day, the newspaper said that an Expedition team of more than ten people went into the cave, and they ca out. They also said they would go again tomorrow, and they can even take people to tour the entrance.
I thought that since they've been in and co out, we might as well go and take a look with them this ti. Anyway, there shouldn't be any danger near the entrance, and we can brag about it later."
"It's too dangerous, let's forget it."
"Yeah, who knows what kind of stuff is in there?"
"My mom is saving money for to marry a wife. If I disappear, wouldn't that be saving money for my brother?"
Although so people objected, another classmate said, "Let's just take a look outside, we don't have to go in. I've never been there before in my life. Let's just watch the fun."
Ding Jiao was sowhat tempted by this and turned to Chen Chuan and said, "Little Chuan, what do you say?"
Chen Chuan considered it and said, "If we're just looking, that's fine. I haven't been there either." It's okay to go take a look. He doesn't have the ability to save people who go in, but it's not difficult to prevent people from going in.
Ding Jiao said, "Okay, let's make it clear first, no entering the cave, just looking outside."
After agreeing, the next day, Chen Chuan drove five classmates, while Ding Jiao and the other four classmates drove two-wheeled Motorized vehicles towards Jiashan on the southwest side.
Jiashan is one of the Three Mountains in the Three Mountains legend. Sunset Cave is located on the western side of Jiashan. Originally, this was a remote place, and it was not well developed during the Great Reclamation period. There was only a garrison point here, which was later abandoned. Only in the past ten years or so, with foreign Expedition teams frequently coming here, has it gradually ford a market.
However, this place rarely sees Supernatural Entity-like things, perhaps because there are few people around and no residents. Even if so really appear, they won't Influence the outside.
When the group arrived at Sunset Cave, they found that it was not the deep, narrow, and unwelcoming place they had imagined, but a very large opening, more than twenty ters wide and more than ten ters high.
The cave entrance was also crowded with people and stalls, and people were constantly going in and out.
Chen Chuan looked carefully, and there were actually traces of artificial excavation on the edge of the cave. In this way, the cave doesn't seem to be entirely naturally ford, but no one has ever studied this before.
And when they arrived, it was very coincidental that it was just when that Expedition team was preparing to go down. A large group of people was surrounding them, pointing and talking. They should all be here to watch the fun.
The Expedition team mbers were all wearing professional equipnt, helts with bump-proof helts and headlights, Grappling Hooks hanging from their waists, and bulging backpacks on their backs. They all looked like foreigners, about twelve people, quite a few.
Chen Chuan listened to the surrounding chatter. It is said that these people were hired by a wealthy businessman.
This should be true, because one of them was surrounded by people and was being repeatedly reminded and instructed by his companions. And beside this person, there were two Martial Artist responsible for Security guard.
After these people prepared for more than half an hour and checked the equipnt again, they entered the cave one after another in the presence of the surrounding people. So people spontaneously followed them in.
One classmate was eager to try and said, "Are we just watching? Why don't we follow them in and take a look? Just go in a little way and co out?"
Chen Chuan saw that soone was always responsible for guiding people in and out, those places should be safe. He went to check it first and confird that there was no danger. Finally, he just wandered around near the cave entrance, probably going in less than a hundred ters and then coming out. Even those who lead the way were unwilling to go any further.
But even so, the classmates were very satisfied and could brag about it when they got back.
After coming out, since they were already here, they simply went to climb the mountain.
The southeast side of Jiashan is very suitable for mountaineering, and there is also an old temple on top, with a large area of peach trees growing on it. You can also see the distant Xiaoqianshan and lakes, and the scenery is very good.
Now is the ti when peaches are ripe, and you can pick them at will for so money, but you can't waste them. The classmates had a great ti here and went down the mountain in the afternoon to go ho.
After Chen Chuan went back, he put this matter behind him. A few more days passed, and there were only the last five days of the holiday left. He was already preparing to return to Central City.
But on this day, Ren Shu suddenly called.
"Mr. Chen, we have received a Governnt Affairs HallCommission here. It seems like a Supernatural Entity, but we can't be sure, so we would like to ask you for advice."
They are very aware of their abilities. Generally, they avoid accepting Commissions of unknown situations, but this ti it was entrusted by the Governnt Affairs Hall, and Chen Chuan happened to be here, so they were trying to ask him for a solution.
Chen Chuan said, "Mr. Ren, please tell the specific situation."
"Okay, a few days ago, there was an Expedition team..."
Chen Chuan's heart stirred slightly and said, "Are you talking about the one at Sunset Cave?"
"Mr. Chen has heard about it too? Yes, it's that matter. That Expedition team conducted two explorations, the last one was fine, but this ti there was a problem. Only three people ca out of it.
This was nothing, it happened often there, but later a strange thing happened..."
He paused here, "Twelve years ago, a group of foreign Expedition team were trapped inside, have you heard of it, Mr. Chen?"
Chen Chuan said, "I also know about this matter. Although I was young at the ti, everyone was talking about it, but I'm not clear about so details."
Ren Shu said, "These two things are related, because soone discovered that the three people who ca back this ti are not the group that went in a few days ago, but... but the group that went in twelve years ago."
"The group that went in twelve years ago?" Chen Chuan paid so attention.
"Yes! These three people belong to the group that went missing twelve years ago, and when asked, they don't know that twelve years have passed outside at all, they only rember that they have been inside for three days."
Chen Chuan asked, "What else?" If it was just this, it wouldn't be enough for Ren Shu to call, there must be other reasons.
Ren Shu said, "The three people who ca back were also surprised after learning about the situation, and said they would go back to find their families, but on the sa night, these people all died, and the skin and flesh on their bodies were gone, leaving only so bones, even the things they were wearing beca tattered and rusty..."
Chen Chuan thought for a mont and said, "Okay, I'll co over and take a look."
