Lu Feng frowned at the cliff gap before him. At this distance, if he leapt with all his strength, he could reach the cliff wall on the opposite side and then climb over. But bringing everyone across would be somewhat difficult. Moreover, whether the cliff face held those strange stone insects they had seen earlier remained unknown.
