C2151 No One Can Leave
This absorption speed was much stronger than the stone walls of the mine. This way, he wouldn't be able to assimilate the Qi of the formation, much less send Xiao Ai and Lin Zhan into the cave. If he wasn't careful, there might be a big problem.
Xiao Ai and Lin Zhan were ready, but Jiang Fann didn't send them into the cave.
"What's going on?"
Jiang Fann said, "This array will absorb my Spiritual Strength in an instant. It will not be safe to let you in. Think of another way."
After saying that, he turned his eyes to the three figures. Jiang Fann slowly approached them. He kept a distance from them and stood still.
The realms of these three figures were definitely not weak when they were alive, but they were still vivid and lifelike. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't feel any signs of life from them, he would definitely still be alive for them.
At this moment, the voice of the Martial God Token resounded in Jiang Fann's mind.
"Activate Lil 'Yu's power. There's something wrong with this place. It's best to find that cultivator first. However, this place isn't small, so it shouldn't be that easy."
The Martial God Token was obviously just in case. Lil' Yu's power could at least prevent Jiang Fann from falling into an illusion. It could also ensure that he could withstand the powerful spiritual attack. Because in his opinion, Jiang Fann's current physique was strong enough to deal with most of the troubles, and his combat strength was also strong enough. Although the strength of the Spiritual Sense had already far exceeded the strength of cultivators of the same realm, following such an environment... It was very difficult to determine what he would encounter in the next moment.
There was no need for Jiang Fann to control it. Lil 'Yu's power had already been activated by itself, and it was now supporting Jiang Fann's body.
With his Spiritual Strength, the Heaven Burning Fire could continue to burn in the sky. As for the figure that attacked him, it was obvious that it was afraid and did not dare to appear in the light.
Jiang Fann shifted his gaze away from the three figures and looked around. He discovered that the empty space within the mountain was shockingly large. Although the light of the Heaven Burning Fire was already very bright, it was still unable to reveal the rough outline of the mountain.
However, he was already sure that the formation under his feet covered a very large area. The entire mountain was also very strange. There was a skinny expert from the Human Clan hiding in the darkness. He didn't know if he was still conscious.
Putting away the Purple Jade Eagle, Jiang Fann held the God Slaying Saber and walked towards the direction where the figure had fled. The Heaven Burning Fire in the sky followed his movement, although the consumption of the Heaven Burning Fire wasn't considered weak to him. It allowed him to keep his surroundings bright, so he could better observe this place.
As for the core area of the Three Lives Valley, it was like a paradise in the mortal world. However, there weren't many cultivators here, so they were all cultivating on their own.
Chu Yue arrived at a special bamboo forest, and just as she walked inside, she saw Lin Xiao walking towards her.
The latter had a puzzled expression on his face. "Why are you here?"
Chu Yue said, "I have something to discuss with the old ancestor."
Lin Xiao shook his head. "Master just fell asleep. Don't disturb him. He will sleep for ten days no matter what. Come back in ten days."
Chu Yue frowned and said, "I have something urgent."
When Lin Xiao saw her like this, he was a little curious. "Important matter? Do you have anything else you need my master's help with? Is there anything that my senior brothers can't solve? "
"That Jiang Fann is here. I wonder what kind of mine he has entered. He disappeared. My dad and the others have gone to stop him. I don't know if they can stop him or not. They said it was very dangerous there, but I've never heard of such a place in our Three Lives Valley."
Chu Yue had never thought of hiding it from Lin Xiao and directly telling him the situation.
Lin Xiao was also a little surprised when he heard that. He had also never heard of such a place.
"What mine?"
Chu Yue shook her head. "I am in the mountains outside, roughly in the southwest. I still remember that area. Since the old ancestor has already fallen asleep, I should go back and ask my father. "
After saying that, she turned around and left, clearly wanting to get to the bottom of this matter as soon as possible.
Lin Xiao hurriedly caught up. "Bring me..."
The two of them quickly returned to the lake. Their father, Chu Heng, and their grandfather, Chu Sanyang, had already returned. They were trying to find Jiang Fann's location on the lake's surface to see if they had missed him.
However, from their expressions, it was obvious that there was no good news.
Chu Yue went forward and said, "Father, did you not stop him? What exactly is going on with the mine?"
"When we arrived there, that kid's aura had already disappeared. That mine pit was opened by my clan's experts back then. The quality of the spiritual stone inside was extremely high. The quantity is quite considerable, but unfortunately, after digging for three months, there was a problem. At that time, the five Mortal Separating Stage cultivators of my clan all disappeared. Seventy miners had fallen in the mine. There was no lack of Divine Dharma Stage Dao Understanding Stage warriors among them. "
When Chu Yue and Lin Xiao heard this, they were obviously shocked. They had never thought that such a thing would happen, and they had never thought that their clansmen would suffer such a huge loss. Because the total number of cultivators in Three Lives Valley was only around 300, they didn't expect to suffer such a huge loss. Including the five Expert of Mortal Separating Stages.
"What exactly happened there?"
Chu Sanyang gently shook his head, "No one knows what happened, because the situation is much more complicated than imagined. We sent people into the mine afterwards, but unfortunately, as long as we went deep into the mine, we would lose contact. Before they disappeared, they saw a skeleton standing there. It came from my race's bloodline, as well as the reminder he left behind. Unfortunately, he also lost contact with that person after that. The mine was abandoned, and we once sent people there to prevent cultivators from entering. But as time went on, in your generation... I've never told you anything about that mine, plus that's the foggy area... We will always be attacked by the mysterious Fog Demon, so we will withdraw our people. That way, no one will be guarding that place anymore. "
"The entrance to that mine isn't big. Even if someone enters the mountain, it will be very difficult to find that place. I never thought that kid's luck would be so bad."
Lin Xiao frowned and said, "Could it be that even with our Three Lives Valley's strength, we don't have the ability to investigate that problem?"
Chu Sanyang said, "That's not something I can decide. Originally, we planned to send more experts to investigate. In the end, we were stopped by Valley Lord. Valley Lord doesn't want to say anything, so we can't ask. However, there is one thing that we can be sure of. That place is extremely dangerous, and no one from our race came out of it. Including the five Expert of Mortal Separating Stages."
Hearing these words, Chu Yue clearly couldn't understand. Lin Xiao also had the same reaction.
Because according to their understanding of Valley Lord, it should be impossible for them to ignore such a great loss to their clansmen.
One had to know that the reason why Three Lives Valley proved that battle was because a Three Lives Valley clansman who had trained outside had been seriously injured by a disciple of a certain dynasty. Valley Lord had charged into the Imperial City alone and destroyed the teleportation formation in the city. He had also besieged the Imperial City outside the city for three years, not allowing anyone to enter or exit. The last few dynasties came to plead for mercy at the same time, and only then did he return to the Three Lives Valley. From then on, the number one genius of the Heaven Kylin Huang was the real deal. No one dared to provoke the Three Lives Valley anymore.
However, how could Valley Lord, who was so protective of his son, remain indifferent when facing dozens of his clansmen?
Chu Sanyang could clearly see that the two of them were unable to understand.
Thus, he continued, "I know what all of you are thinking, but since the old ancestor has chosen to do so... Which means he can't solve it either. The two of you don't need to think too much, just pretend that this didn't happen. Whatever happens to that kid will depend on his luck."
With that, he led Chu Heng away. They had already tried their best to stop him, but unfortunately, things had already come to this point, and they had no other choice.
Lin Xiao said to Chu Yue, "How could that guy be so unlucky?"
Chu Yue said, "If I hadn't invited him to the Three Lives Valley, this wouldn't have happened."
Lin Xiao frowned and said, "Hey, hey! Don't think of any crooked ideas. He has nothing to do with you entering the mineshaft. If he wants to enter the Three Lives Valley, just wait in the town outside. He has your token on him, so the people in the valley won't make things difficult for him. It was his own problem that he intruded, but his luck was a bit bad. Sister Wang Xian didn't come with him, right?"
Chu Yue nodded.
"At that time, he was the only one. Go back to the bamboo forest. I want to be alone."
Lin Xiao nodded. "Then I will go back first. When my master wakes up, I will tell him about the matter."
After saying that, Lin Xiao turned around and left.
However, not long after Lin Xiao left, he felt that there was something wrong with Chu Yue's reaction just now, so he turned around and returned.
Coincidentally, he ran into Chu Yue who left quickly and hurriedly. Out of curiosity, Lin Xiao directly followed behind.
......
On the other side, Jiang Fann walked in the darkness until he reached the edge of the empty cavity. Unfortunately, he still couldn't see the figure, but he had already left the area covered by the grand formation. He tried to pour the Spiritual Strength into the ground, but the situation was exactly the same as when he was in the mine. The Spiritual Strength was absorbed by the ground, and couldn't be maintained.
However, there were some passageways on the wall that led to an unknown place. If nothing unexpected happened, that fellow should be hiding in one of the passageways. Perhaps, he was still secretly watching him.
Jiang Fann didn't continue moving. Instead, he stayed where he was and carefully recalled everything that had happened before. At the same time, he also recovered the energy he had consumed earlier.
Anyway, he could not get out now. He had to make the best use of his time to adjust himself to his best condition. This way, he could also use it to deal with future troubles.
He didn't waste any time. Recovering the Spiritual Strength wasn't a problem for him at all. With the help of the Chapter of Pill Dao, he could quickly restore the consumption of the Qi Sea. However, when he recalled the time he entered the cave, he didn't find anything suspicious. The only thing that stopped him was the fork in the road that blocked his path of retreat. He didn't have the chance to examine it carefully at that time. And now, there was no more chance to go.
He didn't think that the tunnel would collapse, but he was sure that the collapse wasn't caused by his slash. It was more like some kind of force was stopping him from leaving.
However, he suddenly thought of something. Then, as he cultivated, he dispersed the Heaven Burning Fire in the air.
In the next moment, the surroundings fell into darkness and became strangely quiet.
