Chapter 130

His entire body was being battered by the waterfall above.

But at least, he was now standing steadily within the waterfall.

Amidst the impact of the powerful current.

A voice came from within his mind:

【Ding! Black Blade proficiency and Strength +10】

Just in that instant, he suddenly felt he began to understand the blade in his hand.

An indescribable understanding.

Additionally, the soreness in his sword-holding arm suddenly vanished completely.

A surge of power spread from his gripping arm throughout his entire body, then gradually faded away...

Though somewhat surprised, he could not spare a thought for surprise at this moment.

Ning Chen raised his hand, wiped the water from his face, and cleared his vision for a brief moment.

After confirming the direction, he began to move forward.

Testing as he advanced.

The white water before his eyes suddenly disappeared.

He had finally passed through this waterfall and arrived behind it.

Behind it lay a cave.

In the live stream, they saw this cave.

【Ah ha?! So this is the Eldest Senior Brother's bedroom?!】

【Flower Fruit Mountain's Water Curtain Cave??】

【Damn it, Flower Fruit Mountain? This is a snow plateau, okay?!】

【So Brother Monkey is Tibetan...】

【But it really looks just like it! So caves behind waterfalls like this can actually exist!】

The viewers, because of the sudden appearance of this cave behind the waterfall.

The atmosphere in the entire live stream reached its peak.

The number of online viewers skyrocketed, passing one million again in no time.

On the live broadcast screen.

The streamer Brother Shiguang, holding that black blade, entered the pitch-black cave.

On Route 109.

Several vehicles of Professor Liu De's expedition team from Western University were speeding along.

They had already driven past the section of road the streamer Brother Shiguang had traversed earlier.

And they had also stopped to inspect the surrounding environment.

The conclusion reached so far is that no special magnetic field environment was detected nearby.

Therefore, this led to.

The events that happened to that streamer becoming a complete mystery.

They had walked this stretch of road, yet no wolf pack pursued them again.

This indicated that the previously astonishing phenomenon was not universal, but merely a unique case occurring to that streamer.

All along the way, Professor Liu De's mind was filled with doubts.

But the most distressing part was.

He could not even use his own brain to formulate a single question.

Such an occurrence...

Was truly too mysterious.

It was already difficult to formulate a question using existing scientific knowledge.

Let alone to explain it.

【44】 And since that incident occurred, currently.

And ever since that incident happened, up until now.

The entire biological and geological communities of the Eastern Nation are discussing this matter.

According to Professor He Jing of Magic Capital University, the howling of the wolf pack was very special, a worship directed at the alpha wolf.

But that was all.

This still could not explain the strange event that happened to the streamer.

At this moment.

The speed of Professor Liu De's expedition convoy clearly increased.

They were already making every effort to catch up with that streamer Brother Shiguang.

Perhaps all the questions would be resolved once they found that streamer.

There must be many unknown secrets on his person.

Or, at the very least, he must have done something for such an event to occur.

At this time.

Other members of the expedition team were closely monitoring that Brother Shiguang live stream.

Professor Liu De felt exhausted.

He decided to take a short nap first.

Lying down, he did not know how long he slept.

Someone was shaking him awake.

It was his graduate student, Hu Ya.

Professor Liu De's face was blank with confusion.

"Professor! Professor!"

"What's wrong?" Professor Liu De sat up with a start, feeling a bit dizzy, and rubbed his temples.

"Look quickly..." Hu Ya's voice was trembling.

She pointed at the laptop in front of them.

On the computer screen, it was still that Brother Shiguang livestream room.

Professor Liu De remembered.

Earlier, when he lay down, the streamer had been riding a bicycle through a stretch of mountain wilderness.

And now.

On the livestream screen.

It was inside a mountain cave.

Professor Liu De got up and rushed to the computer.

The streamer was now inside a mountain cave.

The surroundings were pitch black.

But ahead, there was a point of light.

That point of light, with the streamer's advancing steps.

Grew larger and larger.

Finally, it could be seen clearly.

It was an exit.

This cave really is quite long enough!

The light at the exit grew more and more obvious.

Finally, he walked out.

The entire scene suddenly lit up.

In that instant.

Professor Liu De suddenly thought of that line from the classical essay:

"... Where the forest ends at the water's source, one finds a mountain; the mountain has a small opening, as if there were light. He leaves his boat and enters through the opening. At first it is extremely narrow, barely admitting a person. After advancing several dozen steps, it suddenly opens up wide and bright..."

For a moment, he too became quite interested.

"This streamer really has guts—going into a mountain like that alone and barehanded—" Even as he spoke, Professor Liu De suddenly blinked.
