The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1765: The Monster Beneath the Cliff

"Now, crossing this Heavenly Chasm is the biggest problem; all the families should band together."

"Indeed."

Zheng Li, after all, was highly respected, and the family clan leaders present expressed their agreement. After all, they faced a common "enemy" right now, which was this Heavenly Chasm.

"Blade Soul, do you have any methods to get across?" Ye Shikai asked.

"I don’t have any good methods either. This chasm is a thousand yards deep, endlessly stretching beyond sight, absolutely not man-made. It’s truly nature’s masterwork, and maybe it’s also a test from heaven to those who come here," Blade Soul said lightly.

"Indeed, such a long and deep cliff, unless there truly is an immortal being, it can’t be done." Ye Shikai, who understood geography and was deeply aware of the changes through the ages, knew that Kunlun Mountain has been here for countless years, and this cliff may have existed for a long time as well.

However, merely lamenting is useless, rather be practical and see if there’s any way to get across.

"The distance from here to the opposite side is at least a hundred meters, and the cliff is bottomless. If one falls, it may crush the bones to powder."

"Yes, if one recklessly steps forward, they might be smashed beyond recognition, beyond redemption."

"Moreover, there seems to be a suction force below the cliff. If anyone goes near, they’ll be drawn down. A hundred meters itself is hard to leap over, and with such powerful gravity below, it’s... simply impossible for anyone to achieve."

Ye Shikai also showed a troubled expression. According to the Inner Strength levels of Huaxia cultivators, before he crossed over the Qin Dynasty, he should have been at the Divine Separation stage. After returning, his Inner Strength has grown significantly and should have surpassed the early Unification stage. Among the families present, probably only the family heads and clan leaders could reach this level, while most elders and experts are merely at the Divine Separation stage. Though Ye Shikai is extraordinarily powerful, even he can’t leap over the cliff in front. To leap across using Inner Strength alone, one needs a transcendent master at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, like Chen Yaogzu meditating deeply in the mountains of Jiangnan. Above the Transcendance Tribulation Stage is the Mahayana Realm, but so far, Ye Shikai has never heard of any surviving Mahayana Realm cultivators. If such a level of practitioner "came down from the mountain," the families of Huaxia might undergo profound changes.

"Senior Li, I’ll follow the edge of the cliff to see if I can find a way around."

"Alright, be very careful, young friend."

Ye Shikai, with his face covered, walked alone along the edge of the cliff. But this chasm seemed endless; the cliff’s sides were like two different worlds. Unless one can leap over the Heavenly Chasm, there was no way to cross.

"Damn, could this cliff really have been split by an immortal being?" Ye Shikai murmured.

"Forget it, I can’t handle it either." Ye Shikai felt a bit resigned, but other families were rather troubled. After an avalanche, they managed to advance, leaving other families behind. If they stayed stuck here, those behind would catch up soon.

Soon, one by one, families climbed up from the mountain below, but they couldn’t find a way across either, and could only wait idly.

Ye Shikai sat in a corner, feeling as though he was back in high school, when the teacher posed an extremely difficult problem, and none of the students could answer it. Everyone looked at each other, hoping someone would solve it first.

"Strange, why hasn’t the Ji Family come up yet?" Ye Shikai felt somewhat uneasy. Not only could he not see the Ji Family, but the Chen Family was also absent. Speaking of, thinking of meeting Chen Yuxin again, he seemed unprepared. On one hand, Ye Shikai really wanted to know about her current state; after two months of disappearance, she should have become quite frail, especially since she was pregnant. On the other hand, Ye Shikai had given up on Chen Yuxin; they were husband and wife in name only, without the reality of being a couple. Seeing her again, Ye Shikai didn’t know how to face her.

Ye Shikai looked around; the number of people was simply too many. It was estimated that there were already more than ten thousand people. Finding one person wasn’t easy; perhaps the Ji Family and Chen Family had already arrived, but he hadn’t found them yet.

....................................

At the same time.

"Clan Leader, ahead is a Heavenly Chasm, and all families have been blocked." Chen Ligong reported to Ji Tao.

"Why is there still a Heavenly Chasm?" Ji Tao went to a high position, looking at the scene before him, quite shocked.

"Father, the distance is so long, only masters at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage might leap over it." Ji Qian showed a worried look; currently, among these people, no one seemed capable.

"Indeed, I didn’t expect climbing Kunlun Mountain is already such a major obstacle, wouldn’t the Kunlun Secret Realm be fraught with dangers?"

"The most critical thing is, if we can’t cross, we can only prepare to return."

Ji Qian didn’t care about the treasures in the Secret Realm, but she wanted to find the legendary time-reversing energy to try and find Ye Shikai. If they went back like this, it would be truly disappointing.

Rumble.

Suddenly, the ground shook, perhaps leaving a psychological shadow from the previous avalanche, everyone began to retreat.

"What is this sound?" Ji Qian said coldly, hearing faintly something colliding with the rock wall ahead, as if something was "crawling."

"Quick, go up and see." A bold cultivator walked slowly forward, reaching the edge of the cliff, and poked his head to look down...

Ah ah.

Suddenly, a black hand grabbed his shoulder, directly throwing him down...

"Not good, there are things climbing up from below the cliff."

Everyone immediately reacted. Ji Qian stood at a high place, clearly seeing that it wasn’t a person but something crawling on all fours, tiger-like body, without ears or nose, eyes growing on the sides, with a huge bloody mouth, and teeth as sharp as blades. The claws on its two "hands" were incredibly sharp, it was simply a monster.

The most crucial aspect was the number of these monsters far exceeded their imagination. Thousands upon thousands of these monsters crawled up the cliff side, their strong limbs making scaling the cliffs as easy as walking.

The monsters emitted chilling roars into the sky. Seeing them, people instinctively retreated. These monsters, upon seeing people, charged like Evil Wolves, rushing forward in a blink of an eye, knocking down the few cultivators at the front, plunging sharp claws like knives into their chests, taking lives instantly.

"All Ji Family members listen up, prepare to battle," Ji Tao said coldly. Being at the back of the crowd, they had plenty of time to arrange their battle formation.

"Yes."

"Yes."

Meanwhile, the people of the families also responded; although these monsters came fiercely, they were accustomed to "big scenes," and moreover, there were over ten thousand cultivators present.
