On the cliff wall about ten meters above the ground, a touch of green caught Mu Yu's eyes.
It was a piece of living vine.
The living vine was only an inch long and appeared there suddenly, and the rest of its body seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Mu Yu crossed the critical line and looked in the direction of the living vines, but he could no longer see the living vines.
This strange phenomenon suddenly made Mu Yu think of a possibility!
"If you have any ideas, please tell me!" Lao Tan cheered up again.
"Did you see that living vine? The living vine can only be seen on this side and not on the other side. What does this mean?" Mu Yu said excitedly.
"What does it mean?" Lao Tan's brain was not as bright as Mu Yu's, and he couldn't react for a moment.
Mu Yu laughed: "This shows that although this formation spans the entire valley, it is only ten meters high. Look at the living vine, there is only a small section, which means that most of its vine body is The other side, but we can't see the other side, so there is only one explanation. If the critical line is a wall, then the living vine has climbed over the wall. We cannot see the living vine from the other side of the critical line. Because live vines are not on the other side of the critical line.”
"I was confused by you. Didn't you say it came over the wall? Why did you say it wasn't on the other side?" Lao Tan became more and more confused by Mu Yu's tongue-twisting explanation.
Muyu drew a rectangular box on the ground and continued to explain: "To put it simply, we are now in a square wooden box. The longer sides of the box are equivalent to the two cliffs of the valley, and The shorter two sides are the boundaries of the mirror array. The boundaries are set up with a powerful array. No matter which boundary you walk from, you can only walk in circles in the box. If you want to leave this box, you cannot walk around inside the box, but Climb out of this box!"
He pointed to the living vine on the cliff and continued: "This living vine should logically grow outside the box, but it accidentally came out of the wall and extended into the box. This made me think Way out.”
Lao Tan thought for a long time and finally understood. He patted Mu Yu on the shoulder and said appreciatively: "You really impress me. You can think of this!"
No formation is perfect, and the organizer must not have thought that a piece of living vine would become a flaw in the formation. The organizers have tried their best to arrange the critical line of the formation as perfectly as possible. As long as the critical line cannot be found, it is impossible to get out of the formation. Even if the critical line is found, there is no way to destroy the formation pattern.
This formation is only ten meters high. No one who enters here can fly. They have no idea how high this formation is, so it is more than enough to trap cultivators below the out-of-body stage. They will never think of climbing out. But this formation was exposed by a piece of living vine, letting Mu Yu know how to escape.
In fact, Mu Yu thinks this is a coincidence, but the intention of the person who set up the formation is not to trap people, he is deliberately testing the people who come in to break the formation. This live vine is a reminder that the person who set up the formation deliberately placed there, otherwise even if it is a wooden No matter how hard Yu searched, he couldn't immediately think of climbing out.
"So we have to climb ten meters high?" Lao Tan frowned. There is an inexplicable pressure in this valley. It's just that we can't fly. If we climb too high, we will be greatly oppressed. We can't climb very high at all. They The living caves are not even ten meters high.
"Can you climb up to ten meters?" Mu Yu asked. If Lao Tan can't stand the pressure, then he has no chance. Lao Tan has said that the situation here is that if you can't climb ten meters, you can only stare at the treasure at your fingertips.
"I can barely do it, but I'm worried that you can't." Lao Tan told the truth. After all, he is in the Nascent Soul stage, and his physical fitness and cultivation level are higher than Mu Yu's. It will definitely not be a problem for Lao Tan to climb out, but Mu Yu is a bit Difficult. This method was Mu Yu's idea, and Lao Tan couldn't bear to leave Mu Yu alone.
This is a huge challenge for Mu Yu. Even Lao Tan can only climb up, so Mu Yu's hope is slim. But now that he has found a way out, Mu Yu will try it no matter what. Even if he can't climb up for a while, Lao Tan can still help him.
"By the way, uncle, which way do you plan to climb from? Should you continue deeper into the valley or climb out from the direction of the valley?" Mu Yu asked. Once you find a way out, you have two options: continue to go deeper and look for the Sky Demon Fruit, or go back the same way and leave the Deadwood Valley through the poisonous fog.
Lao Tan was stunned for a moment. He had not thought about this problem. Being trapped here for half a year had made his thinking a little slow. This was a difficult decision for him. After all, he once came in to seek the demon fruit to seek revenge for him, but fate played a trick on him and he was trapped for more than half a year. The past six months have made him calmer a lot, and he is also doubting whether it was worth it for him to come in in the first place.
"I'd better go out!"
After thinking about it for a long time, Lao Tan finally figured it out. This maze was not very dangerous, but it had already trapped him for more than half a year. He didn't know what he would encounter if he went further in. If he encountered a more difficult test, he might not be able to get out for the rest of his life. went. He was looking for a dead tree to do something, but if he continued to be trapped in it, the gain would outweigh the loss.
Mu Yu understands Lao Tan's choice. Living is the best thing for a person. He didn't intend to go any further. No wish was as real as his own life. Besides, he didn't have any wish either. He just came here to eat on a whim. He always thought that he made an outrageous choice to come in. To outsiders, this was simply taking the danger as a joke. If Mu Yu knew that it was so dangerous inside, he would not come in to join in the fun even to death.
"Which way is the way out?" Lao Tan asked.
Mu Yu looked at the direction he came from, confirmed the mark, and said: "According to the direction I remembered, if you climb from the side where you can see the living vines, you should continue to go deeper into the valley, and never climb from the side where you can't see the living vines. If we climb, we have to go back the way we came. All we have to do is climb as high as a living vine, then move sideways and jump down."
If Mu Yu's idea was correct, when Lao Tan climbed up and jumped down, he should not be able to see Lao Tan from below.
However, both of them were seriously injured at the moment, and Mu Yu's arms were still aching, so it was impossible to climb out directly. Lao Tan is also exhausted and needs some time to recuperate. For Lao Tan, he has been trapped here for more than half a year, not less than these few days.
"Let's heal our injuries first! That damn big-eyed monster almost sprayed me to death that day." Mu Yu complained. The monster in the water can spit fire, and he is not afraid of being choked by it!
They took a good bath by the river. The fight last night left the two of them with a fishy smell. Although it was strange here, fortunately, the dead tree did not poison the river water, it just prevented people from crossing the river.
They returned to the cave. Since they already knew how to get out, there was no rush. They just had to wait until they were fully recovered before climbing the wall. Mu Yu could finally have a good sleep at night. After solving the current problem, what else could he worry about
The night shrouded again, Mu Yu had fallen asleep, and Lao Tan sat there staring at the darkness outside the cave in a daze. After being trapped here for more than half a year, he suddenly found out that he could get out alive. This excitement made him unable to sleep. Thinking of his deep hatred, he understood that the possibility of finding the Sky Demon Fruit to make Dead Tree Evergreen take action was too low, and he had to take revenge himself.
However, at this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared on the river bank below the cave, without any foresight, like a ghost. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find any trace of him. There were originally many lazy monsters gathering on the river bank, but as soon as this black shadow appeared, all the monsters immediately fled in fear. The monsters in the darkness seemed to be afraid of this person and did not dare to approach him. The black shadow looked up at the entrance of the cave and suddenly flew up, approaching the cave.
He can actually fly!
Lao Tan suddenly found that the roars of the monsters around him seemed to have disappeared, which made him feel a little confused. He leaned out and looked down, but at this moment, a black shadow suddenly floated into the cave and fell on Lao Tan. behind.
The speed of the black shadow was so fast that Lao Tan only saw a flash in front of his eyes, and then he smelled a strange fragrance. As soon as he absorbed a little of this strange fragrance, his mind suddenly became groggy, and he felt that the world was spinning in front of him. Then he fell to the ground unconscious.
The black shadow didn't look at Lao Tan at all, but walked towards Mu Yu who was sleeping in the cave. Muyu and Xiaoshuai were lying around and snoring lightly, unaware that an uninvited guest had come to the cave. With a gentle wave of the shadow's hand, Mu Yu, who was sleeping, seemed to be lifted up by an invisible big hand, and then was taken out of the cave by the shadow.
The black shadow flew Mu Yu to the critical line of the maze, and then put Mu Yu on the ground. He glanced at the critical line and formed several complicated handprints with his fingers. The critical line slowly turned into a solid wall!
This black shadow is not restricted here. It knows where the exit is, can control the critical line, and can fly. This completely shows that this person's identity must be the legendary dead tree.
Deadwood Changqing set up this formation, secretly observed those who entered the formation, and witnessed the entire process of Mu Yu breaking the formation. Then he felt very unhappy when he heard that Mu Yu wanted to return the same way. Finally, someone who could break his formation appeared, but this kid had to back off. How could he let Mu Yu leave so easily
Dead Tree Changqing helped Mu Yu so that he no longer had to climb the wall, but the price was that he entered deeper into the valley. Moreover, the way in was blocked by dead trees, so Mu Yu had no choice but to go deeper.
Dead Mu Changqing glanced at Mu Yu. His figure looked particularly gloomy in the darkness, and his appearance could not be clearly seen. Then there was a strange sneer in the darkness, and then the black shadow began to shake in place, gradually blending into the surrounding darkness, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Our Muyu didn't know all this. He slept soundly, turned over, scratched his thighs, grinded his teeth, and muttered a few words by the way. Xiaoshuai also slept like a dead pig, smacking his lips from time to time, as if he dreamed of some delicious chicken legs. It curled up on Mu Yu's shoulder, and the dead tree made Xiao Shuai come over.
They have no idea that they have been kidnapped by others.
