“Are we… are we really jumping down from here?”

Standing at the edge of the cliff, Shen Qian looked at the roaring waterfall beneath her feet, and could not help but feel a wave of dizziness, taking a few steps back involuntarily.

She handled the photo-taking like a pro earlier, but looking down at the Lanqiu Waterfall made her feel somewhat scared.

On the other hand, Qin Lang quickly understood the intention of Zhou Tianhao.

“Brother Zhou, are you implying the use of Thought Waves?” Qin Lang curiously asked.

“Correct.” Zhou Tianhao laughed, “Not just Thought Waves, one of my Food Spirits also has the nature-based combat skill of the storm type. Combining them, it’s entirely possible to land safely.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Lang nodded in understanding.

Being limited by his power, currently, Dan Bao couldn’t keep Qin Lang airborne for an extended duration with Thought Waves, let alone when there were three people present.

However, Zhou Tianhao’s Food Spirit was four-star, much more potent than Dan Bao. Naturally, employing the same combat skill would yield a different effect.

If it was his Spirit, wrapping them up in thought power and leaping straight down the waterfall seemed entirely feasible.

“Seems like it’s worth a try.” Upon this thought, Qin Lang nodded in

agreement.

“Huh? You guys are genuinely going to jump?” Seeing that Qin Lang agreed to the proposal, Shen Qian was reluctant, “Isn’t that terrifying?”

“Trust me, it’s going to be alright.” Zhou Tianhao gave Shen Qian a reassuring look, then turned his gaze toward Lark, who was ready to spring into action.

“Kra-la-la!”

Lark nodded confidently, and a milky white halo spread out in all directions

from him.

Compared to Dan Bao’s Thought Waves, Lark’s Thought Waves were evidently stronger by several levels and covered a greater area, easily forming a faint white force field outside the bodies of the three of them standing together.

Looking at the nearly submarine-like force field, its surface showing a streamlined shape, an idea flashed across Qin Lang’s mind, “Dan Bao, lend a hand too!”

“Gu-lu?”

Initially envious of Lark’s superior strength, upon hearing Qin Lang’s command, Dan Bao paused, then seemed to grasp something and also started generating a halo from his body, forming a force field around.

The force field that Dan Bao formed clung to the inside of the force field created by Lark. Its thickness visibly lacked in comparison, but as the different Thought Waves from the two made contact, Dan Bao could clearly sense Lark’s use of thought power.

By doing so, it could learn a trick or two!

Lark glanced at Dan Bao and Zhou Tianhao, who didn’t dispute, appearing as if he hadn’t seen anything, and smoothly landed on the water surface, encased by a force field.

They were submerged by the rushing current from all sides, but under the protection of the thought power, it did not reach their bodies.

All the Food Spirits lifted into the air all together, keeping the force field tightly wrapped around them, like soldiers guarding a general.

Having arranged everything, Lark dispersed his control over the force field, just maintaining its formidable fagade.

The no-longer current-resistant force field swiftly surged with the current toward the location of the waterfall’s entrance.

Looking at the “Single Standing Tree,” where they had just taken pictures, as it rapidly enlarged in their sight, and seeming like they could touch it with an outstretched arm as they passed by, Shen Qian, who was squatting and trembling slightly, seemed to regain some composure.

Having just wanted to say something, she was overtaken by a sudden sensation of weightlessness.

After passing the waterfall’s entrance, the force field, carried away in the rapid waterfall, was plunging at a high speed towards the pool receiving the water below!

“Ahhh!!!”

Just as Shen Qian couldn’t help but let out a shriek, Qin Lang, who was beside her, had a taut face too. Even though he didn’t lose his composure, he was equally nervous as this was also his first time experiencing such a thing.

Only Zhou Tianhao, who wasn’t nervous, laughed heartily, “Jiela, Wind Singing Whirlpool!”

“Jela!”

Another four-star Spirit on standby responded with a single call. A trace of green light appeared suddenly in the course of the waterfall’s swift plummet.

A whirlwind formed instantly at the bottom of the force field. The terrifying gust wind, carrying the water flow from all around, reflected a colourful light in the sun, rapidly turning into a water cyclone, supporting the force field.

Lark, who was snickering on one side, took control of the force field, striving to decrease its velocity.

With the combined strength of the two Spirits, the velocity of the force field visibly slowed down in the eyes, finally landing into the water-receiving pool.

“Splash!”

Like a rock falling into the water, it sent up a spray of water several meters high. As the floating force came into effect, the speed of the force field’s descent slowed down once again, ultimately floating leisurely to the middle of the water-receiving pool.

Under Lark’s control, the force field slowly drifted to the edge of the water­receiving pool. The individuals were back aground, and their clothes were not even damp.

“Phew!” Shen Qian, entirely tensed up till this moment, finally let out a deep breath, a look of having been startled out of her wits on her face, “That was thrilling.”

“My Spirits and I have undertaken diverse special training to become stronger. This isn’t the first time we leaped down from a waterfall.” Zhou Tianhao casually spoke, a grin on his face, “The waterfall we jumped from earlier had an even greater drop.”

This was the reason for him being calm throughout.

Zhou Tianhao was able to win the championship at the provincial training competition because of the numerous trials and tribulations that he experienced along the way.

“So, that’s how it is.” Qin Lang came to a sudden realization, then patted Shen Qian’s shoulder, “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine now.”

Shen Qian stood straight, shaking her head, but her face looked somewhat peculiar.

Having recovered from the shock, recalling the thrilling sensation from the moment of descent, she strangely felt the urge to experience it again.

“By the way, isn’t the Lanqiu Waterfall a renowned scenic spot in Lan Qiu Forest?” Qin Lang curiously looked around, “Why isn’t there a single person?”

“I know a bit about that.” Zhou Tianhao cheerfully intercepted, “I arrived at the city area of Lanqiu City first and then turned back into Lan Qiu Forest. The youth training competition in Lanqiu City is about to start, so fewer people have been entering the forest recently.”

“Although this forest is a scenic area, it still poses certain dangers for the common folk. Only Spirit Chefs with decent strength can roam freely here. With these two reasons, naturally there won’t be many people around the waterfall.” Upon saying this, Zhou Tianhao’s face took on a strange expression, “In fact, one of the clues that led me to infer that the Star Hunter is about to arrive at Lanqiu City is the upcoming youth training competition in the same.”

Qin Lang pondered over this.

Since the Star Hunter’s last operation took place at the youth training competition in Bai Lu Mountain City, on learning that Lanqiu City was about to host a similar event, Brother Zhou naturally associated it with the Star Hunter…

This indeed was a reasonable deduction. However, going by the disappearance of the clues, it’s highly unlikely that the Star Hunter will appear here..

Well, it doesn’t matter.

“Having no disturbance is a good thing. Shall we set up tents nearby?
