70- Finally out of the cave

As Zhong Peng soared through the air, his eyes caught sight of the qi beast's appearance. The sight of the beast left him taken aback, his heart racing with fear and uncertainty.

Despite his initial shock, Zhong Peng knew he had to remain focused and alert, as the situation was quickly escalating out of control.

The qi beast, sensing an opportunity to strike, immediately launched its tiny claws toward Zhong Peng's head.

Zhong Peng, seeing the attack coming, knew there was nothing he could do to avoid it. He was already mid-air, his body suspended in a state of weightlessness, unable to move or dodge the beast's razor-sharp claws.

Instinctively, Zhong Peng raised his left hand to defend himself against the qi beast. The beast's claws made contact with his hand with a small thud, causing him to wince in pain.
