Baby with Daoist Monarch System

This means that his efforts are making a difference!

”Let’s see how far I can go?”

Xu Ran was eager to try, and immediately took a step forward.

Suddenly.

The golden rune beneath Xu Ran’s feet kept flickering, like sparks splattering from forging iron. Xu Ran could clearly perceive it every time a spark arose.

Moreover, every time the spark arose, it brought Xu Ran a transcendence of body and soul.

”Hiss--”

This small but very important golden rune trembled slightly every time a spark arose.

Although the appearance of the golden rune signified something good.

But the trembling of the golden rune also indicated that in such a Prisoner Wind environment, Xu Ran’s golden rune was very weak!

The golden rune which just ascended was quickly extinguished by the whirlwind.

Indeed!

Xu Ran watched the extinguished golden rune, the joy on his face completely faded.

At the same time.

The moment the golden rune disappeared, Xu Ran’s body showed no resistance to the Prisoner Wind, and there was no similarity in aura between them.

For a moment.

Xu Ran felt like a small boat struggling in a stormy sea, expending all his energy with every step forward.

The whirlwind filled his sleeves and collar, like icy blades, cutting his skin painfully, he could even hear the sound of fabric tearing.

”This won’t do!!!”

At this moment, Xu Ran’s heart had already started becoming anxious, constantly pondering his next move.

”Wanting to quickly adapt to the Prisoner Wind, this method seems unrealistic, and very difficult!”

At this moment.

Even the genius Xu Ran encountered a bit of trouble.

Whilst pondering, his gaze turned to the other side of the valley, where several twisted neck trees, dead for who knows how long, stood.

Moreover, these twisted neck trees had no branches left, only dried-up trunks remaining.

Upon seeing these twisted neck trees, Xu Ran’s eyes suddenly brightened.

”Common wisdom says: Wind is shapeless, yet possesses force. Follow the wind’s force to achieve better efficiency!”

”First get to those twisted neck trees, though only one remains at less than a meter tall, even in such an environment, even a sapling would have the aura of Prisoner Wind.”

”So, as long as I stand behind it, perhaps I can block the current power of the Prisoner Wind!”

Xu Ran was not one to procrastinate. Upon thinking of the method, he immediately moved to take action.

Just as he was about to move, he saw the clouds above the horizon moving at an astonishing speed to the right side of the valley, upon which Xu Ran realized the source of the whirlwind.

The source of the whirlwind was the narrow mountain pass between two distant peaks, like a gigantic bellows continuously delivering strong winds into the valley.

Xu Ran, just about to move, was trapped by the strong Prisoner Wind in place, even when the golden rune appeared, it could not allow Xu Ran to move freely, forcing him to only stare at the suddenly shifting whirlwind source with wide eyes.

Thinking this through, Xu Ran also continuously observed the rampant Prisoner Wind.

Moments later, Xu Ran’s eyes widened in excitement as he said.

”The right side, the weakness of Prisoner Wind is on the right side!”

As soon as Xu Ran uttered these words, his steps already set forth, rushing towards the right side of the valley.

Though the resistance was great, it still couldn’t stop Xu Ran’s determination to pass the trial!

Immediately, Xu Ran forced himself to move, arriving at the right side of the valley!

Upon reaching this place, his eyes were bright as snow. He was very sure, confirming that this was the best windproof shelter!

Here lay several ancient trees that had existed for thousands of years, though they had lost their leaves, only bald trunks remained.

However, this did not affect their existence for an extremely long time here, nor did it affect their adaptation to the aura of Prisoner Wind.

”These ancient trees’ trunks intertwine, forming the best wind barrier. Though immobile, one can reflect on the direction of the Prisoner Wind here, perhaps enabling one to cross in no time!”

Immediately, he sat cross-legged beneath a relatively large ancient tree, exactly able to shelter his body completely.

...

The three siblings watching Xu Ran undertake the trial were quite surprised.

”Xu Ran, what are you doing? Why did you come here!”

The youngest sister, upon seeing Xu Ran’s actions, was very perplexed.

She didn’t understand, so why blame him!

The other two knew the temperament of the youngest sister, and did not blame her. Instead, the second brother explained.

”The place Xu Ran hides in is within the valley, a living existence for countless years, its value is immensely terrifying.”

”Moreover, these dead trees have stayed here for so long, so naturally they carry the aura of Prisoner Wind!”

”Hiding behind ancient trees can greatly reduce resistance, and also begin to adapt to the Prisoner Wind!”

The youngest sister, upon hearing the second brother’s explanation, immediately understood its meaning.

”So he is using the ancient trees as a windbreak? Developing slowly to strike at the end?”

The youngest sister continued to question.

”That’s partly the reason.” The eldest brother explained.

”Moreover, the route taken by the bald one is a straight line, seemingly the shortest distance yet facing the strongest wind pressure directly; while Xu Ran chose a curved path, extending the journey yet conserving energy by utilizing the terrain.”

The eldest brother’s brief explanation vividly demonstrated how brilliant Xu Ran’s wisdom was!

...

Not long after, the bald one had already gone over a hundred meters in the valley, yet he still didn’t sense anyone catching up from behind.

Logically, the rear shouldn’t be that quiet, with Xu Ran’s character, no matter what, he would fight through.

But now? Not a sound from behind? Could it be, he went ahead of me?

After saying this, the bald one was somewhat displeased with himself.

”Xu Ran, could he have given up?”

The bald one muttered to himself, then turned to look back.

He saw a small figure sitting cross-legged behind an ancient tree, closing his eyes, starting to meditate.

”He’s started meditating?”

The bald one, witnessing this scene, was very shocked!

Before it’s completely over, Xu Ran would not easily give up. This was the bald one’s personal analysis of Xu Ran.

He made an analysis of character, one that should not contain mistakes!

Yet.

The reality was right in front of him.

Yet.

The next moment.

Xu Ran’s body suddenly trembled, the faint golden light which originally appeared only at his feet, was now surrounding his waist.

This sudden change left the bald one slightly taken aback.

”What’s happening?”

Now, he began to regard seriously, looking towards Xu Ran with a solemn expression.

Then, he laughed heartily, ”Haha!”

”Xu Ran, you are truly interesting, knowing how to use dead wood to put yourself in the most perfect environment for Enlightenment!”

”But, thinking you can achieve true Enlightenment, am I just for show?”

Immediately.

The bald one changed his previously kind appearance, instantly becoming a wrinkled, extremely ugly person.

In a flash.

The bald one’s foot suddenly strengthened, directly turning to charge towards Xu Ran’s edge, forming a giant Wind Wolf shadow behind him in an instant, opening its bloody mouth as if to devour Xu Ran whole.

During Enlightenment, Xu Ran felt a sudden powerful crisis approaching, greatly alarmed in his heart, just as he was about to be bitten by the Wind Wolf.

Immediately, he slapped the ground with both hands, his whole body lifted into the air, avoiding the coming Wind Wolf attack!

The bald one, witnessing Xu Ran’s change, widened his eyes.

”Your Enlightenment speed is too fast, how long has it even been, and you can already move freely in Prisoner Wind?!!”
