The sweaty was making the cold abyss even colder, even the hot fever of Cuifen wasn't enough to warm his body, he could feel his right-hand muscles twitching as he kept the tight grip on his sword.
He finally stopped his fall, but every twitch of his muscles made him ask if was worth it, he didn't want rest his right arm and use his left to hold their weight since it was basically an death sentence.
Closing his eyes he started to chant the
Opening his purple eyes slowly he took out a stone sword of his ring, holding it with his left hand that was bursting in flames he felt the deep wound opening again, but he had no other choice, infusing it with what he could of spirit qi, the sky-blue color enlightened the wall again, but he hadn't any time to look at it.
Sticking the sword in the wall at the height of his hips, it cut the wall like butter, but he didn't put all the blade inside the wall, he let a little off so he could use it to lean on, the movement made him almost to lose his grip, and he felt his body freeze, all the muscle he could tighten he did it, very slowly, he lifted his right tight and rested it on the sword.
When his right butt cheek touched the blade he felt like he was sleeping in the clouds and almost lay down in the air, but gladly he was very tense and the
"Sigh.." it was like he took the heavens off his shoulder, then he took another stone sword off the ring, and this one he stuck a little by the side of the other one, giving his tight something to rely on, this time he gave space to his two legs, but his left butt cheek still was floating, he didn't really care about it, he finally could rest a little.
He didn't take off his grip from his spirit sword, he didn't want to put his full weight on the stone's sword. Heaving some breath he then asked Long Shin what he should do, and was greeted with a weird answer "Make a hole in the wall".
At first, his mind wasn't ready for this nonsense them after some time he understood his father plan, he was about to make a 'cave' inside the wall, so he could truly rest and finally take care of the poor Cuifen who was the only warm he was having all the night.
He put his wounded hand on the stone wall, even with the clothes around it he still could feel the cold temperature, he looked at his surrounding but all that greeted him was darkness, all this time he didn't notice it, but now that he could finally stop, he saw that Cuifen hair was short and its weird tips gave an impression that she used a sword to cut it.
She was still lying on his back, and as he thought about all the death situation he got carrying her he felt a little guilty, she probably didn't have a good rest in his back, and because his fight style was the one of a lunatic he was full of wounds.
He wasn't feeling the tight chains on his body from the beginning, but now he could feel it hurting his chest, as he thought about her condition and everything that happened he took a stone knife from his ring, he gripped it with his wounded hand and using it as a shovel he slowly started digging at his shoulder level, it was a really weird scene.
A young man who had a woman tied by chains at his back was using two stones swords as a chair and another sword as support above his head, and with a left-arm who was clad in white tatter cloth he was using a stone knife to dig a stone wall.
As he removed little by little of the stone wall he could only hear the little stones hit the wall before falling in the dark abyss, but he didn't care, he kept digging because his and Cuifen life was depending on it.

Far away from the abyss, the campsite has been completely overturned in search of Cuifen and of course for plundering.
The sea of cloud was taking half of the campsite, and it already involved the elders who were fighting, the old man who talks with Yong was none to be seen neither the woman he was fighting.
In the beginning, the elders and Meng'er thought it was going to be a great problem to them fight in these clouds, so the first thing they did was to search for each other, but then nothing happened, it caused them to become even more anxious if Evil Cloud and some elders group up to kill one of them they could easily accomplish it.
But after some time there still no movement of the enemy and they started to suspect that they ran away, it was the only reason it could explain why they aren't attacking.
Outside the sea of cloud, the battle was already over and the disciples are waiting for the conclusion of the battle inside.
Evil Cloud was already far away from the campsite, his teeth are clenched so hard that one of them was already broken, his complexion was pale and his spirit sea was completely dry, he was walking only by his body strength who was also coming to an end.
Because he transformed his spirit qi in cloud qi he was in a frail state during the rest of the fight, so he was supplying his attacks with saber aura, but because Meng'er lotus could feel his ranged attacks and even detect his location, his sea of clouds was almost futile against her, when she got an opportunity she used bewitching techniques almost making him fall for her.
If wasn't for his fast reflexes as he bit down his tongue as hard he could without killing him in the process he was going to die in her hands.
He decided then to take some drastic action and used all the spirit qi he had left to suck every cultivator near the cloud sea to it, causing even more chaos, and then use this to escape.

Yong was tracking Shi's movements with the best he could, behind him some young disciples were following, since he didn't have an martial spirit with great smelling skill, he could only look for trails Shi let.
It wasn't that hard to found it, because Shi was tired he let a lot of trail that he didn't notice, and Long Shin didn't really care about it, in his head it didn't really matter, because of Shi's situation if he found any kind of danger he was probably going to die.
Gladly the only meet he had was with that woman, who was a dual cultivator that used bewitching techniques, that way he could protect him countering her mind techniques.
As the bald man was getting near the abyss he saw a outstanding figure looking at it, of course it was Feng Wu, who was lost in her own thoughts as her sight was locked at the depths of the abyss.
Yong felt a cold sweat roll his back at he looked at the enchantress, only a newbie would think about her as a woman, every core disciple know about her vicious act, she even wouldn't let children off her grasps.
Seeing Yong getting stop the people following him glanced at the direction he was looking, some of them didn't understood why the bald man stopped his tracks, but two of them got really anxious like the leader.
Not that far away, a woman was following them, it was Shi's favorite, Siyou Yue, the moon girl wasn't with mind to fight, so she kept by the side looking at the battlefield, when Long Shin yell triggered a huge battle, she felt something was off, and if wansn't because of the diference of their voices, she would believe it was Shi the one who shouted.
So she kept watching, but this time she was looking for something, she didn't know what it was, at first she thought it was Wu's trap, as she was circling them, but later when the bald showed up running like a scared toddler she smelled some conspirancy.
When she saw him looking everywhere and then shot forward in the direction of Evil Cloud she knew something was off, then he called for an elder and as they spoke the elder complexion got pale white, she decided to keep a eye on him.
When he started to call for some disciples and walked away from the battlefield she decided to follow him, she didn't know why she was doing it, but her sixth sense was telling her something was off.
