“Ouch! Stop! I promise I’ll take out the book now!” begged Tolly with a smile. “All right, do that now, Tolly!” Sally smiled behind her hand, “Then I’ll let go your ear!” “There’s no need for you to treat me like this, Sally. I was just kidding!” In a fraction of a second, Tolly mumbled something in his mouth. And suddenly, a book suddenly flew out of his Infinite Space pack and started spinning itself unceasingly. After that, the book got bigger until it was as large as a normal book in the modern society. “Catch it!” said Tolly to Sally, “I’m sure we can find a way to make antidotes that can help David Dragon and the Five-headed Lion.” Sally leaped into the air and held it tight in her hand. When she was back to the ground, she glanced at the cover of the book where three big words greeted her eyes warmly: Core Pot Sutra. “Core Pot Sutra!” Sally blurted out in surprise, staring at the book unblinkingly. “It looks like you’ve heard about this book before!” said Tolly while star
“If you don’t want me to pinch you, now work on the antidotes.” Sally shot him a hard glare, arching her eyebrow. “See, time slips like water. Come on!” “Okay. I’ll embark on my journey to the higher level of my cultivation,” replied Tolly with a wide grin. “Don’t worry, I’ll make it.” Totally ignoring the wicked Ana outside his formation, Tolly sat down on the ground and started to mediate cross-legged, squeezing his eyes shut. “What are you doing, little punk? Do you think I run out of my means to attack you? You’re so naïve. I’ll figure out my way to fight against you soon,” shouted Ana, waving her tentacles wildly. “By the way, your friends only get forty-five minutes to live. I can’t wait to see them die before me.” “Shut up, hag!” shouted Sally, who stared at Ana furiously inside the formation. “What did you call me?” Ana went crazy, waving her long tentacles faster. If possible, she would like to tear Sally into pieces. The word ‘hag’ was simply more than she could bear.
Sally waited for her demise in despair. Yet, that sharp drill did not land on her body. Instead, suddenly, she heard a cry from Ana.Sally immediately opened her eyes to find out what was going on. To her surprise, she saw Tolly was standing in front of her. It turned out that Tolly had acted on time, throwing a heavy punch at Ana, who was sent far away from Sally and now landed hard on the ground.“I won’t allow anyone to bully my dear Sally,” seethed Tolly, who turned around and gave Sally a smile. “Are you Okay, Sally?”“Tolly, I’m all right. I just thought I couldn’t see you anymore!” replied Sally, whose eyes suddenly were filled with tears. She was so glad that she was still alive.Tolly immediately wiped the tears streaming down her face and reassured, “Don’t worry, Sally. I promise when I’m beside you, no one could hurt you.”“Bastard! You’ve finally gotten out of your little shell and face my punishment,” fumed Ana, who started to send toxic gas through her tentacles again.
When the ten swords of various shapes and colors went flying toward Tolly from different directions, Tolly did not worry about it at all. he knew the powerful Everbright Pearl that wrapped around him was going to protect him. Sure enough, when the sharp swords from Abut landed on the light ball formed by the Everbright Pearl one by one, they just could not penetrate it. 'I've heard Everbright Pearl is known for its defensive ability, but I never expected that it would be so powerful, ' thought Abu, who stared at Tolly furiously. "Why are you keeping gazing at me? " Tolly mocked, "You think I'm the most handsome guy in this world, huh? ” "Nonsense!" fumed Abu, who had never failed to kill anyone with his invincible swordsmanship. This time, he did not want to blow it, either even though his rival had the protection of the fantastic pearl. "Be careful, Abu," a rough voice came from the ship of death. "I've heard Everbright Pearl has the most powerful defensive ability in this world
Sally was right—before Tolly was able to jump into his formation, Tolly soon found himself caught in the rain of fire swords coming from Abu, taking a direct hit. Apparently, the move named Blood Soul Slash was truly powerful since the protective luminous ball formed by Everbright Pearl was quickly shattered like glass. Before Everbright Pearl was able to form a new protective ball, those swords continued to try to land on Tolly’s body. Luckily, Tolly whisked himself quickly enough to his formation just in the nick of time, sparing him from harm. Finally, all Abu’s powerful swords landed on the surface of Tolly’s Upside-down Five-element formation, which was strong enough to hold the assaults of the swords for the time being. “Damn it,” seethed Abu, “that was so close. You are lucky, little punk!” Tolly turned around, staring at Abu with a smile, “If there’s one thing I’m known for, it must be my ability to get good luck. Now, it looks like your so-called Blood Soul Flash cannot pe
Tolly saw the terror in Sally’s eyes. He knew he had to do something to protect them from the possible harm.Though there was no method to deal with the powerful attacks from Abu, who was employing his hellfire sword—himself with fire all over, Tolly knew that all he could do now was to strengthen his Upside-down Five-element formation.Without any hesitation, he took quite a few Red Spirit Stones from his Infinite Space Pack as quickly as possible and then in a flash they were thrown straight at his formation.In a minute, his formation was glowing brighter with red light.Sally stared at it and murmured with her widened eyes, “It’s beautiful. Is it going to protect us like a solid ball-like shield?”“I don’t know, Sally,” Tolly replied, keeping hurling more Red Spirit Stone at his formation. “Yet I know my Red Spirit Stone will help strengthen our formation.”“I’ll break it into pieces!” suddenly said Abu, who leapt high up into the sky like a fire ball and came down onto the format
"Come on, buddies! Dig it out and we'll all be millionaires!" A jubilant voice came from one corner of a huge cave, which hollowed itself out of the mountainside of Westfort. At the time, the boundless sky was cloudless. There was nothing in sight but a burning sun, which was beating down relentlessly, sapping everything of its major energy. The hot sun cast its dazzling light over the majestic Mountain Westfort, turning it mysteriously golden. The silence was broken both by the passionate rush past rocks from the swift stream, a mountain torrent that tumbled itself like rolling melons and also by sharp clunks of machines inside the cave. There was a stirring of excitement inside it. It was Tolly McCoy’s voice just now. He, as a veteran gold miner, had spent many years toiling in dim dank gold mines in hopes of getting rich and leading a decent life one day. He had planned to settle down in a peaceful and quiet place, perhaps somewhere in Eastern China, basking in warm sunshine
“Wake up! Wake up, Tolly…” There was a faint cry in his ear. He saw nothing before him but darkness. He lay on the ground, unable to lift his heavy eyelids to see. “Wake up, Tolly! I won’t allow you to die…” A few hot tears dropped onto his angular face and streamed their way to his mouth. The salty taste made him cough violently. “Pfft…Pfft…cough…” “Oh, my god, thank goodness. You’ve finally woken up!” When Tolly gradually opened his eyes, what came into his sight first was a young girl crouching beside him with some tears still hanging on her two beautiful big round eyes. Rather dazed, who was she? Tolly wondered. He coughed a few more times, and his head still hurt. However, all of a sudden, tens of thousands of strange images, flashing like a movie, appeared in his mind. Odd enough, some memories that did not belong to him whatsoever flooded into his mind. He took a long, deep breath before casting a look straight up into the sky. In the distance stood lofty mountains
