Lei and Stelle obviously never heard of this Tightening Headband before. But in the world before Sui Xiong came here, at least in the culture where people spoke the same language with him, almost everyone knew this.
It simply had two effects-----The first one was that once it was worn, it couldn’t not be taken out. The second one was that once the Band-tightening Spell was chanted, this headband would tighten, tighten and tighten. No matter it was the grand Sun Wukong who possessed great magical power, even if he turned into a fish, or an earthworm, or turned into a water drop or a fireball, even his soul came out of his body, his head would be still tightened. His head would be about to crack due to the headache. He couldn’t do anything but surrender.
The Tightening Headband that Sui Xiong had made was from the original one. Using the Band-tightening Spell was not the only way to activate this band. There was also a default method to launch it------this inspiration was not from "the Journey to the West", but from the movie "Westward Journey".
And when Sui Xiong launched it by default, it for sure couldn’t be severe to the point of "breaking heart"-----if it was the case, Stelle would have probably been tightened to death these days.... Or she would have died in one day.
Not allowed to use force to make other people do something was the default "commandment" that Sui Xiong set for Stelle. Without any actual action, once she had this kind of thought, the Tightening Headband would immediately start to tighten. If she still didn’t repent after receiving warning, still didn’t give up, that Tightening Headband would constantly tighten, then tighten... Strictly speaking, this headband would not really strangle alive people to death. But if they were still stubborn, fainting was unavoidable.
After explaining the effects of this band, Sui Xiong laughed out loud and said, "According to the legend, that year, this headband was used by a matchless great hero - The Monkey King. To be honest, you don’t deserve it. But who say I always want to help people do some good deeds."
He threw the Tightening Headband to Lei, "Temporarily, take it as an education for a love-erupting brat.... Lei, put it on her. From now on, you will be the one in charge of casting the Band-tightening Spell."
Stelle didn’t think much, instantly flapped her wings and bolted away. She even considered using her flying ability to escape.
But in front of Sui Xiong, how could she escape? Sui Xiong laughed loudly three times. His dark power turned into a giant fist, directly slammed down on her like smashing a fly. The giant fist immediately changed into a five-finger shaped ice mountain, firmly pressed her down under the foot of the mountain.
"Hey! You, this evil creature, still try to escape from Buddha Five-Finger Mountain!" Sui Xiong shouted out loud in Chinese. His words were full of accomplishing feeling. Unfortunately, in this world, there was no one that could understand his Chinese. This made his feeling of accomplishing lose a lot of value.
After blocking Stelle’s escape, Sui Xiong immediately taught Lei the Band-tightening Spell, let him put the Tightening Headband on Stelle, then retrieved his dark power, turned the Five-Finger Ice Mountain into a void.
"I really feel secured about your wisdom and intelligence. With your observation, this exotic flower can’t flip the sky." Stelle was tightened by the headband. She constantly tried all kinds of schemes. No matter what kind of magic was, it was all in vain. This headband was effective for both spirit and body. She was still the same as before, couldn’t escape from the golden headband on her head. Sui XIong couldn’t help but faintly smile as he saw that, turned to Lei to speak, "Whenever you chant the Band-tightening Spell, do it few times. It is good to do it by yourself."
"Furthermore, when necessary, you can reverse
the Band-tightening Spell, the effect of the Tightening Headband will be temporarily stopped for a while ----of course, it can’t be taken out like before."
Lei happily nodded nonstop, silently chanted the Band-tightening Spell. Stelle immediately felt the hoop on her head starting to tighten. At the beginning, it wasn’t so tight, still bearable. But as the number of times that Lei chanted the spell increased, the Tightening Headband squeezed more and more tightly, squeezed till she had an exploding headache. For a moment, she shouted out to her mother and father, rolled back and forth in the mud. Since she was at the end of her tether, she just could miserably beg Lei for mercy, to let her off this time.
At this moment, Lei satisfactorily stopped chanting. As soon as he stopped, the pain in Stelle’s head was immediately gone as well. She scarily scratched the Tightening Headband on her head. She couldn’t help but shed tears as she imagined about her future situation.
An unfettered beautiful life ended here!
After that trip, Stelle became more well-behaved as she was wearing the Tightening Headband. She didn’t only not disturb Lei anymore, while her number of times going out to feed herself also decreased.
However, this also had pros and cons. She usually had a sudden headache when flying up, then tumbled to the ground, shouted out in pain. Her spying efficiency declined tremendously accordingly.
This also made Sui Xiong and Lei feel that this exotic flower was exaggerating----basically, she could have evil thoughts anywhere anytime. In just one day, the Tightening Headband was activated more than twenty times...
After reluctantly wearing for a day, until the night, she really could not take it anymore, crying out loud, begging Sui Xiong to fix the Tightening Headband a little bit.
"For this time being, there is no way for me to get through this!" She cried out loud like her liver and guts were cut to pieces, "Even thinking a bit is also not allowed, then what is the point of living! It would be better if you just simply kill me!"
As for the "rather die than not to do it" spirit of this wretch, Sui Xiong could only say a word of ‘respect’. After bargaining for a while, he finally agreed to adjust the Tightening Headband.
First, he loosened up the bound with "thought". No matter what, only "think"was innocent. Although his original intention was to use strict restriction to fix Stelle’s bad thinking, he couldn’t do anything but give up when he saw the bones of the wretch were all crooked, and that there was no possibility to fix them.
Next, following the "A sweet apple after getting one hit" principle, he added one more function for the Tightening Headband----as long as Stelle tried to constrain her lust, and stored it, when the time came, she could put it into use.
"Doesn’t this mean that normally I can store my desire, until the critical moment, I can launch it in a large scale, which is not any different from the oestrus technique, and convoke a vigorous general meeting without hiding?" Stelle’s eyes lit up as she heard this. Her saliva almost flowed out.
Sui Xiong sighed, gave up his intention to conduct a lengthy speech.
This woman is.... incurable!
After solving this problem, the team had finally reached the Broken Cloud Mountain Range.
This Broken Cloud Mountain Range was known as "Mainland Roof Ridge". It started from the endless blue sea in the west, went along the southwest to northeast, extending horizontally. When it was about to reach the mainland, it diverted the direction from west to east, separated the Ancient Forest and the Tercel Kingdom. Lastly, it headed to the north and drew an arc, then headed to the east, extended to the east grand delta---this was also the Blue Moon Kingdom’s territory.
The biggest trait of this mountain range was that it was high, extremely high. Except for the big delta outside the east of the mountain, the majority of this region was all sheer cliffs and precipitous rock faces after sheer cliffs and precipitous rock faces. From the foot of the mountain looking up, one could see cliffs upon cliffs, stretching to the cloud layer. It as if looked like they cut off the clouds in the sky ----hence, the "Broken Cloud" came from that.
This mountain range separated the traffic between the south and north mainlands. It was also the famous Holy Land for cultivation. According to Lei’s words, right now, there were at least half of the legendary powerhouses, more than seven-tenth of the Semi-God powerhouses in this world lived in this surprisingly towering high mountain.
The reason was very simple. That was because of the dark power’s concentration.
The distribution law of the dark power concentration in this main surface was roughly like below: Taking the sea surface as a border. From there, going up and down, the dark power concentration would increase accordingly. In the sky and deep in the sea, the dark power concentrations were extraordinarily high. Therefore, if the formidable devil creature didn’t live in the high mountain, it would live in the deep sea.
For this time being, let’s not talk about the deep sea. The highest place in the mainland was the Broken Cloud Mountain Range. Hence, the majority of formidable devil creatures on land lived here. Due to the high dark power concentration, those powerhouses who had surpassed the limit of the mortal preferred to stay here in a hope of increasing the possibility of the breakthrough.
In this world, there were many "Restricted Lands". For example, the core area of the Gobi Desert in the Westfall belonged to the Restricted Land. Those who wanted to keep their lives must not enter this place. This Broken Cloud Mountain Range was not a restricted land because... those people, who didn’t want to live, basically could not climb this mountain if they didn’t have enough strength.
The highly toxic dark power didn’t only produce formidable devil creatures. As for those creatures which used to the low dark power concentrated environment, this was not any different than a highly poisonous place. If one couldn’t break through the limit, step into the legendary realm, they would not have qualification to climb the mountain.
Want to suicide? It was more practical to find a rope and hang oneself up on the tree.
"I am sure there is no way to cross the Broken Cloud Mountain Range." As Lei was panting while climbing to the top of the
precipitous peak, he couldn’t help but shake his head when he saw more and more sheer cliffs and precipitous rocks ahead as well as the thick dark power in the air, "This is really impossible. I can not do it."
Sui Xiong didn’t want to make things hard for Lei, conversely looked back at Stelle.
"I feel... it does not matter..." Although Stelle still didn’t want to admit her weakness, her panting appearance had betrayed her.
It was pretty obvious that "Passing the Broken Cloud Mountain Range" was a highly difficult challenge to their small adventure team. No matter it was Lei or Stelle, they both didn’t have an ability to pass this challenge.
What more troublesome was that there was no gap in the Broken Cloud Mountain Range like the Barren Mountain Range. In this Mainland Roof Ridge, mountain was after mountain. There was not a single gap.
To pass this mountain range, they had to rely on their powerful abilities or take the detour.
Seeing his teammates about to fall apart while ahead was still the same, high and steep, tall and straight, endless mountains, Sui Xiong drowned in his thoughts.
After a while, he finally figured out a method.
"... Highness, are you sure there will be no problem?" Facing that bloody mouth wide open like a sacrificial bowl, which was big enough to contain an adult, even an extremely daring guy like Lei could not help but tremble with fear, "This method... feels unreliable..."
"Yes,that’s right! We’d better take the detour!" It was very rare for Stelle and Lei to have a common voice. Their heads were like the chicks pecking rice.
It was not a surprise that they were anxious and scared like this when they had seen Sui Xiong turning into a big house with a slight shake. And now, he even wanted them to get into the stomach of the giant jellyfish, which was called ‘Jellyfish spaceship’ to fly past the Broken Cloud Mountain Range.
To be honest, this method was not impossible. He was able to solve all the problems that this method was having effectively.
The dark power’s concentration was too high? Sui Xiong could absorb them to eliminate.
Thin air? Sui Xiong could suck the air nearby then release here to supply oxygen for manpower.
Meeting dangerous Devil Beasts traveling in the sky? Sui Xiong could display his momentum to chase them away.
Can’t see in the sky? Sui Xiong could use the navigation spell.
In short, except for its disgusting look outside, the jellyfish spaceship was indeed really good, extremely good.
But it really looked scary!
Right, really scary!
Indeed really scary!
Because it is important, it has to be said three times!
Going into the stomach of a giant devil beast is absolutely not something normal people can do, even myself!
To be honest, Lei and Stelle could not be seen as normal people. They were a lonesome thief and an exotic flower slut. There was no way they could convince themselves to run into other’s stomach to travel!
"This is impossible!"
"Yes,that’s right! It is impossible!"
They exaggerated everything like this.
In the end, they still surrendered.
With a loud exciting laughter, the giant floating jellyfish slowly rose to the sky, flew to the cloud layer...
