God of Pets

Chapter 39 Shadow
Chen Guan's memory was pretty good, and he had actually memorized all the content.

The content recorded in this text is a kind of dual cultivation technique. The so-called dual cultivation technique is a secret method for two people to practice together.

Because it didn't say that it was limited to men and women, men and men, or women and women, so Chen Guan didn't know whether this thing could only be practiced by a man and a woman.

However, according to the outline, practicing this dual cultivation technique will be of great benefit to both parties. If they can practice it to the extreme, they can both reach the pinnacle of perfection and ascend to heaven as immortals.

The more Chen Guan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. The Afang Sutra was a human law created by the emperor's ancestor who exhausted the world's secret methods. In that era when men were superior to women, how could women have the same status as men?

Therefore, Chen Guan is now very suspicious that this secret method of dual cultivation is not the "Afang Sutra" left by the Emperor.

Chen Guan continued to study it, and the more he studied, the more he found that this thing was most likely not the "Afang Sutra", because the method of practicing the harmony of yin and yang was clearly written in the back, and it must be that only a man and a woman could practice this secret method.

"This secret method should be related to the Lord Shita. The Lord Shita is the harmony of yin and yang." Chen Guan thought to himself.

Ji Nanhong only remembered the first part, but she also discovered that this was actually a method of dual cultivation. She was also doubtful in her heart whether this was really the secret method she thought.

"How could the secret method created by the Emperor be an obscene dual cultivation method?" Ji Nanhong's face changed constantly.

After a while, the words on the stone wall gradually became brighter. Ji Nanhong looked at it again and memorized the content in his mind.

Chen Guan no longer needed to remember the above content. He just looked around in the light of the text, trying to see if there was any way to escape.

Unfortunately, the area that can be seen is very limited. Apart from the stone wall on this side, there is nothing that can be seen in the dark place in the distance.

Suddenly, Chen Guan's gaze fixed on a spot on the mountain wall, and his eyes gradually became filled with horror.

Ji Nanhong did not notice anything unusual about Chen Guan. He was still memorizing the words on the cliff and had no time to pay attention to anything else.

The light of the font disappeared again, but Chen Guan's eyes were still fixed on the mountain wall. He saw a figure on the mountain wall.

Yes, it is the shadow of a human being, not a mural painted on the wall, but a real shadow that can only appear under the illumination of a light source.

However, Chen Guan did not see the person that the shadow corresponded to. There was only a shadow imprinted on the mountain wall. The shadow seemed to appear out of thin air and had no roots.

"I must be dazzled. How can there be a shadow without a physical entity?" Chen Guan's face was gloomy and uncertain. He thought so, but he didn't think he was dazzled in his heart, because what he saw just now was too real.

It was a black shadow, and the shadow had no ups and downs due to the protrusions of the mountain wall. It was just the darkness reflected on it.

Chen Guan's heart was pounding. He was not afraid of ghosts. The strangeness of various mysterious spirits was no less than that of ghosts. In this era, no one would be afraid of such illusory things as ghosts.

But a shadow was reflected on the mountain wall without any root or source. Either there was someone here, or the shadow itself was a mysterious spirit.

Chen Guan had never heard of a secret spirit in the form of a shadow. He was afraid that physical attacks would be useless against such a secret spirit. Just like some water-based secret spirits, fists or weapons could do little damage to them. Only some special secret methods or techniques could cause damage to them.

Chen Guan does not have that kind of attack means now. If he really encounters a secret spirit that physical attacks are ineffective against, he will probably be in great danger today.

As various thoughts flashed through Chen Guan's mind, the words on the stone wall lit up again. These words seemed to breathe, lighting up and dimming rhythmically, with an interval of about a quarter of an hour in between.

Ji Nanhong was still memorizing the words, but Chen Guan was staring at the shadow on the mountain wall.

That's right, it was a shadow, an independent shadow, rootless and sourceless, imprinted on the mountain wall, just at the edge of the text. Because the light of the text was too bright, the shadow seemed less noticeable.

Chen Guan noticed that the shadow's posture was slightly different from the one he'd seen before. "There's no mistake. It must be some kind of mysterious spirit. I wonder what level it is." As the light faded once more, leaving darkness all around, Chen Guan felt a deep sense of unease, as if evil spirits were lurking everywhere, ready to burst forth from the darkness and bite his head off.

The shadow is invisible and intangible. If it comes in the dark, there is no way to defend against it. You may not even know how you died.

Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Guan's mind, and his body was tense, ready to launch a counterattack at any time.

Yanzhi broke his water and was seriously injured herself. It is estimated that it will be difficult for her to exert her fighting ability. It is unknown whether he can solve the current predicament by relying solely on his own abilities.

Even if Rouge can still fight, can it hurt a shadow?

While Chen Guan was daydreaming, the light of the words shone again. Chen Guan stared at the position of the shadow and found that the shadow had moved a little, and the posture was completely different from before.

The shadow now seemed to be sitting there, with one hand supporting its chin, staring at Chen.

Cold sweat broke out on Chen Guan's forehead, because it was just a black shadow with no facial features at all, but Chen Guan could feel that the shadow was looking at him.

"What's wrong with you?" Ji Nanhong had memorized everything this time, and then she remembered Chen Guan. She turned her head to look at him, but saw that he was covered in cold sweat, looking at the mountain wall with a strange expression, as if he had some hidden illness.

Ji Nanhong was such a smart person that he realized something after asking this question. He followed Chen Guan's gaze and immediately saw the black shadow, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

"What is that? A mysterious spirit?" Ji Nanhong didn't even know what it was, but her judgment was the same as Chen Guan's, they both felt that the shadow was very dangerous.

"I don't know, it should be a secret spirit." Chen Guan still stared at the shadow.

When the space became dark again, Ji Nanhong, like Chen Guanzhi, felt an indescribable fear, as if there were demons everywhere in the darkness, choosing people to devour, which made her get goosebumps all over her body.

If it was a secret spirit like the King of Corpses, Ji Nanhong would not have such a reaction. If he couldn't defeat it, the worst that could happen was death.

However, the psychological pressure brought by such a strange shadow made her unable to be free from fear just because she was not afraid of death.

Ji Nanhong gritted her teeth and said, "We have to find a way to escape quickly. This place is too weird."

"There's no sky up and no ground down here, and we can't fly. How can we escape?" Chen Guan said helplessly.

"We can only go into the water to find a way out," said Ji Nanhong.

"I'm afraid there are secret spirits hiding underwater. How good are you at swimming?" Chen Guan asked back.

"I...can't swim..." Ji Nanhong said a little embarrassedly.

"You can't swim, and my swimming ability is just average. If there really is a secret spirit in the water, we will definitely die." Chen Guan sighed.

Ji Nanhong's expression kept changing. In her current physical condition, it was really difficult for her to escape in such a place. If she could regain her ability to move, there might still be a glimmer of hope.

But no matter how good the medicine was, it wouldn't be possible to heal her broken bones immediately, unless...

Ji Nanhong couldn't help but think of the dual cultivation method she had just memorized. There were some magical application techniques behind the dual cultivation method. If this dual cultivation method was really useful, perhaps it would be able to allow her fractured bones to recover in a short time.
