Chapter 1562: 1562
Er Ming stood over there . He seemed to be in deep meditation . Meanwhile, vivid scenes were being displayed .
In a forest, a bright-eyed, vivacious young maiden was trotting along merrily . She was humming a song, “The little maiden is picking mushrooms . She has a large bamboo basket on her back…”
Thought Concretization!
The term appeared in Yuanen Tianshang’s mind at once . It was shocking for him because the Thought Concretization had audio as well . What level was one’s spiritual cultivation base in order to achieve this?
Prior to this, Yuanen Zhentian only thought that Er Ming was terrifying, besides being a Limit Douluo . Currently, he realized that this terrifying person had a cultivation base which surpassed his father’s .
In the scene, the young maiden was picking mushrooms from the bottom of some tree stumps and bushes . She then placed the mushrooms into the bamboo basket which she carried in her arm .
When she made her way to another part of the forest and saw a huge tree, she suddenly gasped . There was a chubby ape lying under the huge tree .
The ape had a dense, pitch-black fur which was smooth and glossy . It appeared rather adorable .
Upon seeing the ape, the image of the statue placed on the ancestral tablet altar immediately came to Tang Wulin’s mind . It looked quite similar .
“Wow, what a cute little ape . ” The young maiden had a surprised look on her face but did not show the slightest fear . The ape appeared to be less than half a meter in height .
She squatted to stroke the ape’s fur gently, and she looked a little surprised .
The ape was sleeping soundly . It did not budge at all as if it was enjoying the petting . It turned on its side and slept soundly .
The young maiden giggled . “So cute . ” Then, she used her hand to pinch the ape’s nose . “I’m not going to let you breathe . Let’s see if you wake up . ”
The ape was uncomfortable as expected . Its body wriggled for a moment, then it slapped the young maiden’s hand away before it opened its eyes .
They gazed into each other’s eyes . A murderous glow shimmered in the ape’s eyes while the young maiden ignored it . She giggled . “You’re adorable . ” As she was speaking, she rubbed its head once again .
The ape’s raised hand with its sharp claws paused for a moment . It did not claw the young maiden in the end . On the other hand, the young maiden had no clue that she had just passed through the gates of hell .
The young maiden picked up a mushroom from her little bamboo basket . “This is for you . It tastes scrumptious . It’s a fresh matsutake . I had to look all over for it . ”
The ape was stunned for a moment before it took the mushroom subconsciously . It then shoved the mushroom into its mouth and swallowed it after two or three chews .
“Wow, you like the taste of it, huh! Awesome, this is for you . ”
The young maiden passed her bamboo basket to the ape . It seemed like the ape was truly famished . It took the bamboo basket and began feasting without any reservations . It took only a short while before it finished all the mushrooms in the young maiden’s bamboo basket .
The young maiden was only too willing and excited to watch the ape gorge down the mushrooms .
“You should go home . I’m going to pluck some more mushrooms . Otherwise, I can’t exchange it for money to buy wine for my father . My name is Xiong Xiaoling . You must remember my name . ” The young maiden waved her hand at the ape upon saying that before she turned around and trotted away .
The scene paused and vanished .
Yuanen Zhentian and Yuanen Tianshang were watching in bewilderment . They felt their skins turned numb .
The scene appeared once again . This time, there was a huge fire that seemed to bridge heaven and earth .
It was a village covered in flames completely . The horrible fire spread and devoured everything in the surroundings .
A giant sphere about thirty meters in diameter was seen in the center of the village . It was fiery red all over . There was no doubt that it caused the great catastrophe .
The screams and wails echoed through the entire sky . The young maiden Xiong Xiaoling’s silhouette appeared again . She was screaming and weeping in pain while immersed in the sea of fire .
The place where the sphere-shaped huge rock had landed was precisely her house! Her whole family was crushed underneath .
The huge fire in the surroundings had spread near her but she remained screaming and crying . At present, she was not aware her life was in danger . She only howled in sorrow .
Meanwhile, a silhouette descended from the sky to grab her before bouncing away from the sea of fire . Meanwhile, Xiong Xiaoling had lost consciousness when she was grabbed by the silhouette .
The gigantic silhouette was the Titan Giant Ape . It had been the little ape in the past . It dashed wildly through the mountain forest until he reached the side of a lake and placed her on a rock .
The Titan Giant Ape swayed his body once and transformed into its human form . Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Er Ming .
“You treated me to a feast of mushrooms, so I’m saving your life . ” Er Ming muttered to himself in the scene .
He scooped up some water with his palm and splashed it on the young maiden’s face .
The young maiden regained consciousness slowly after being splashed with the icy cold lakewater . She appeared to be in a daze, but she soon recalled everything that happened earlier . She began wailing in pain once again .
Er Ming stood by her side . He did not console her but let her cry her heart out .
She lost count how long it had been when she finally stopped crying . She then noticed the tall man standing by her side . She asked in fear, “Where am I?”
Er Ming spoke, “You’re in the forest . Your home has been hit by a meteorite and it has been destroyed . I was the one who saved you . ”
Xiong Xiaoling wailed bitterly once again . She was hysterical until she lost consciousness once again .
The sun rose and set three times . In between, Xiong Xiaoling cried until she lost consciousness a few times before she quietened down gradually .
Er Ming picked fruits and caught fish to feed her . The two hardly spoke to each other since Xiong Xiaoling was usually in a trance .
“What’s your name?” She finally asked one day .
“Me? You can call me Tai . You’re getting better . I’m going to send you back to the city,” said Er Ming .
Xiong Xiaoling was stunned . “But, I have nowhere to go . ”
Er Ming did not speak .
Xiong Xiaoling suddenly raised her head and looked toward him in slight agitation, “Are you abandoning me?”
Er Ming was stunned for a moment . Without waiting for his response, Xiong Xiaoling pounced onto him .
The scene ended thus far…
When the scene appeared once again, it was early in the morning the next day . She was lying in his arms . After the catastrophe, it was the first time since she smiled . The sunlight shone upon her silky soft hair which reflected with a faint golden lustre .
Er Ming looked at the person in his cradle with a dumbstruck expression . He rubbed his eyes occasionally as if he could not believe everything that happened was real .
It did not take long before Xiong Xiaoling woke up . She smiled toward him shyly . “I don’t want to return to the city . We have everything we need here . Is it alright if we stay here?”
“Sure,” agreed Er Ming .
Then, he began lumbering for wood to build a house . There was no need for him to do so, but he did not want Xiong Xiaoling to have a life exposed to the wilderness .
Day by day, time passed but they were happy together .
However, there was always a gloominess and uncertainty in Er Ming’s eyes .
Finally, a day came when he raised his head and looked up to the sky . A dash of green light flashed past . He pondered for a moment before he glanced at the wooden house where Xiong Xiaoling was sleeping soundly .
He took a deep breath, inscribed a bunch of characters on the ground, and drew a map . Then, he leaped up and transformed into the Titan Giant Ape’s enormous figure in midair before he left .
Xiong Xiaoling woke up and realized he was gone . She called out his name, yet there was no response .
Out of the blue, she stumbled upon the writings and the map .
It was a map which led one to the world outside . The instructions were clearly written which explained how to use the map to leave the great forest .
“I’m the ape which you fed the mushrooms in the past . I’m not a human being . I’m a soul beast, the Titan Giant ape… I have some matters to attend to and I’ll be back in ten days . If you don’t mind my nature as a soul beast, wait for my return . I’ll stay by your side always . If you can’t accept this, then you can return to the human world and leave this place by following the map . ”
