Hire little monsters in your dreams every day

Chapter 7 was actually true.

The dark, torrential rain poured down relentlessly.

For a moment, it was hard to tell whether it was a dream or reality.

"what!"

"Grass……"

The screams were drowned out by the sound of the rain.

More and more people lost control of the clouds beneath them and fell down, their figures hidden in the endless rain.

Some contestants stopped sitting cross-legged and instead, trembling, lay back down on the clouds.

Some contestants forced themselves to calm down, wiped the rain off their faces, and tried to regain control.

Wu Yun sat on the cloud, his helmet making a continuous, crisp sound as the dense raindrops hit it, and rainwater streamed down from the folds of his down jacket.

He frowned, suddenly realizing that the clouds beneath him had become heavier and duller, no longer as lively as before.

"This works?"

"What about them? Aren't they afraid of the rain?"

But in the distance, a dozen or so locals were sitting cross-legged on the clouds, chanting incantations that seemed to come out of nowhere, their hands forming hand seals hidden in their sleeves.

"Gathering the void and drawing in the wind, accumulating Qi to form a wall, the primordial energy merging and flowing, traversing the heavens and opening up new frontiers..."

"Combining the previous breath to swallow the mist, transforming the eight wastelands into a raging torrent, exhaling turbid breath as if a blade were opening and closing..."

"Controlling the four directions' rushing spirits, warding off rain and arrows, turning them into boiling water..."

Beneath them, clouds emitted light, shimmering gently in the hazy, indistinct rain like lamps, their movements graceful and ethereal.
Liu Mian sat cross-legged on the cloud, chanting incantations while a smile played on her lips.

These immortal families paid a huge price for this heavy rain!
But if one can obtain the ninth-grade fruit rank of the Soaring Cloud Path, then it will all be worth it!

A starting signal came from the distant sky.

"preparation--"

Everyone became nervous.

"--fly!"

A dozen or so glowing clouds, graceful and light, swept through the rain, flew onto the racetrack, and headed towards the finish line!

Small teams slowed down and carefully took off onto the track.

The inferior rich kid roared loudly.

"Fly over my head and shield me from the rain!"
"Fifty thousand yuan each upon returning!"

A dozen or so people, their bodies covered with various small instruments, had already lined up in formation.

"Number One, Number Two, Number Three, fly above and help the team withstand the rain first."

"If you can't hold on any longer, just say so, and we'll bring in numbers four, five, or six to take over!"

Wu Yun did not rush forward, but sat cross-legged on the cloud, getting soaked in the heavy rain, and stretched out his right hand, seemingly lost in thought.

"The second generation of immortals has really resorted to underhanded tactics."

"Trying to steal my prize money?"

He looked down at the clouds beneath him.

The rain-soaked clouds are like a sponge that absorbs water.

I recalled the techniques I learned from yesterday's forum.

He frowned slightly, and the surface of the cloud became wrinkled, hardened, and formed a thin layer of ice.

He squinted, and the water inside the cloud quickly evaporated into water vapor, turning into wispy cloud strands that made the cloud swell up a lot!

"So this is ah."

But the next moment, the ice shell on the surface of the cloud slid down.

As the clouds grow larger, they collect more rainwater and become heavier and heavier at a faster rate!
……

A dozen or so glowing clouds flew at the very front of the racetrack.

Liu Mian and the others chanted incantations and made hand seals, flying with ease and comfort.

The immortal realm they inhabited had long been environmentally degraded, and torrential rain was a common occurrence for them.

He used this "Cloud-Soaring Rain-Avoiding Technique" with great ease.

Liu Mianfei was at the front of the line, already dreaming about the prize money if she became the first place winner!
Is flying fast useful?
In the struggle for power, they will stop at nothing!

Not only today, but tomorrow in this dream, it will rain heavily!
Not just tomorrow, but as long as the struggle for power continues, this heavy rain will not stop!
The Liu family of Jizhou can afford the cost of these few dozen days!
The lowly people of the lower realm will be reduced to clowns in the torrential rain!

And the highest rank of the ninth grade fruit will surely belong to Liu Mian of Jizhou!
"Ok?"

Just then, Liu Mian suddenly saw something.

His pupils contracted as he suddenly saw a strange cloud in the pouring rain, quietly flying to his left, a hundred meters away, accompanying him from afar.

That cloud was covered by a raised ice shell, keeping all the raindrops out!
"what is this?"

……

Strange clouds, like swallows, darted through the rain curtain, while the ice shells that formed the windshields blocked out the wind and rain.

Wu Yun sat inside, even taking off his helmet and straightening his hair. "It looks really good."

"It's long overdue to get a windshield."

"With this, my hairstyle won't get messed up."

This is a windshield that he finally succeeded in making after several attempts.

Rooted in the clouds, ensuring stability.

Thick ice crystals ensure durability.

Its streamlined teardrop shape can even reduce wind resistance!
Looking at Liu Mian and the others on the right... although they were flying quite fast, they were all soaked by the rain, their hair plastered to their faces, looking ugly and disheveled.

Wu Yun frowned.

"But their faces did not appear pale."

"Not bothered by the cold, not afraid of freezing?"

"So they really are different from us?"

When they were beating Liu Ye before, Wu Yun heard that their punches and kicks could even produce air explosions!

It now seems that these guys' physical condition is indeed incomparable to that of ordinary humans.

"But why can their clouds glow?"

Wu Yun frowned, wanting to observe.

But the distance was too far, and the rain was too heavy, so he could only see a blurry, hazy light and couldn't make out any details at all!
……

Liu Mian and the others had gradually come to see Wu Yun flying alongside them in the distance.

Their faces were truly grim at that moment!

"Is it the [Soaring Cloud Ice Armor Technique]?"

"How could a lowly commoner like him use this?"

The [Soaring Cloud Ice Armor Technique] requires terrifying talent and long-term practice, and it will make the clouds heavier and more difficult to control.

It has limited uses, high costs, and significant drawbacks.

Even among true ninth-rank Cloud-Soaring Immortal Officials, very few have mastered this technique!
Will he come closer?
"Come and knock me down?"

Liu Mian formed hand seals with both hands, simultaneously holding a small bone knife in her palms. The blade was covered with dense, rice-grain-sized blood-red runes, waiting for Wu Yun to arrive!

The others also glanced at Wu Yun out of the corner of their eyes.

They either concealed magical artifacts in their hands or held them under their tongues, remaining completely calm and even continuing to chant incantations.

"Gathering the void and drawing in the wind, accumulating Qi to form a wall, the primordial energy merging and flowing, traversing the heavens and opening up new frontiers..."

Like a venomous snake, it waits quietly, its fangs already prepared!

……

Beneath the windshield, Wu Yun showed no intention of approaching Liu Mian and the others.

Instead, I've been observing and thinking.

He discovered a key point...

"Why are there still thorns sticking out of the clouds that are as soft as willow branches?"

"No...no...it's not a thorn, it's a raindrop, a raindrop blown away by the clouds, illuminated by the light?"

"So the key is not to make it glow, but to use the airflow that bursts out from the inside to blow away the raindrops that come near."
"But where does the airflow come from? Does it draw in the oncoming airflow?"

……

Liu Mian and the others did not wait for Wu Yun.

All that could be seen was that the cloud beneath Wu Yun's seat was gradually beginning to glow.

"Want to learn our [Cloud-Soaring Rain-Avoiding Technique]?"

"How...how is it possible to learn this?"

Sure enough, the cloud beneath Wu Yun's seat was like a faulty light bulb, flickering on and off, before finally going out completely and losing all its light.

They grinned and laughed.

But the next moment, the cloud beneath Wu Yun shone brightly, its dazzling light even illuminating the rain curtain!

call……

A powerful airflow swept through, whipping up a curtain of rain!
And that cloud, like a blazing meteor, suddenly accelerated, streaking across a long, dazzling line, piercing into the depths of the rain curtain!
Liu Mian watched the shooting star disappear into the distance, her gaze becoming even more vacant and her face even paler.

He remembered his master saying that the so-called visualization and incantations of immortal arts were only auxiliary.

If one has sufficient comprehension, one can learn it without visualization.

If you have enough talent, you can perform it without any incantations.

He remained skeptical.

Only now do I realize it's true.
