Looking at the remaining fluctuations on the mountain wall, it shows that there is a very mysterious restriction there, which even Gong Shanhe cannot see or break.
He didn't know whether the powerful being behind the mountain wall knew of his arrival, or whether he was just an ant that could be killed at any time in the other's eyes, but no attack occurred at that time.
Therefore, after making these judgments, Gong Shanhe had to put his hope on breaking out of the cave again. However, after several attempts, he was still forced back.
When the fourth evil wind appeared, Gong Shanhe knew that the powerful and terrifying existence had begun to take revenge on him for deliberately fainting early last time.
The evil wind did not stop even when he was really struggling to hold on and fell into a coma. Gong Shanhe didn't even know how many days he had been in a coma.
He lost a lot of weight in one go, and his skin was almost sticking to his bones on his sturdy body.
It took him more than three months to recover that time, and just when he was getting better, he was hit by the cold wind again.
At that time, Gong Shanhe's body had barely recovered, but he was still weak. The cold wind only blew for a cup of tea, and Gong Shanhe could no longer resist it. When he was about to faint, the extremely cold wind disappeared.
This made Gong Shanhe realize that the powerful existence was warning him not to be petty, or not to think about escaping, because his life and death depended on the other party's thoughts.
When Li Yan saw Gong Shanhe again just now, he had just been attacked by the cold wind four days ago, and the formation and forbidden defense were just an instinct of a cultivator.
Although they knew they could not resist the cold wind, it still made the monks who were recovering from meditation feel safer in their hearts.
In addition to the terrifying extremely cold wind, there are three ghostly wind beasts in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. Before the defensive restrictions are set up, they can never approach him quietly.
"In that case, the Sixth Elder might still be alive as well."
After listening to Gong Shanhe's quick narration, Li Yan thought of one thing. Those evil winds were treating him as a "cauldron" and constantly absorbing qi and blood from him. In this way, they would not kill the Sixth Elder.
"I also make the same judgment, so there is a certain chance that nothing unexpected will happen to Ah Ying!"
As Gong Shanhe spoke, hope had already risen in his heart. He had seen clearly that Li Yan's realm was at least equal to his own, and was not comparable to that of the Sixth Elder.
If he and Li Yan teamed up to break into the cave again, with two against three, they might be able to get out.
But what worried him now was that he was no longer in his former peak condition, and his combat power was only about 60% of what it used to be, or even worse. This made him less confident.
At this moment, Li Yan was thinking about another thing in his mind.
"The Sixth Elder may also be trapped in another cave. Once every few months... the cold wind blows through the cave... and absorbs... This place is like a human nostril, absorbing with every breath..."
As he thought quickly in his mind, Li Yan suddenly switched to voice transmission.
“The terrifying existence in the deep cave you mentioned may have known of my arrival, but so far, there has been no movement.
Combined with Patriarch Gong’s previous description, I think that since the other party is constantly trying to absorb your energy and blood, it means that he is injured and wants to borrow your energy and blood to recover.
After all, after entering here, all I saw were cold ghosts, and no other living creatures. You and the Sixth Elder have practiced the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique", and your blood and energy are extremely powerful, which is exactly what he needs.
Such a powerful existence has never gone out. Is it because he was seriously injured
He has never shown his true form. Is it possible that he cannot even leave this cave and can only use some kind of magic to absorb your blood and energy?"
After hearing Li Yan's message, Gong Shanhe immediately replied.
"What Fellow Daoist Li said is basically the same as what I guessed. Otherwise, I would have given up the idea of escaping from here. Even if I escaped from the cave, it would be useless. He can still kill me easily.
He used three Nascent Soul cultivators to watch over me, which obviously meant that his real body could not appear and he might have been seriously injured.
At the same time, I also discovered that there may be only three Nascent Soul-level ghosts outside, and they may all be transformed by that powerful and terrifying magic, or they may simply be his clones.
This is very telling because their appearance, attack methods, and even realms are exactly the same.
There is another important discovery. Sometimes when I go out, there are only two Nascent Soul level ghosts blocking my way, and sometimes there are three.
Obviously, in order to trap me and the Sixth Elder at the same time, they had to assign one person to deal with the Sixth Elder.
And my cultivation is stronger than that of the Sixth Elder, so at least two Nascent Soul cultivators must be kept here.
Sometimes I would encounter three Nascent Souls. It might be that the Sixth Elder had just had his blood and energy absorbed by the Yin Wind and was at his weakest, so I could leave him alone and let him come with all his strength to stop me.
Unfortunately, there is a dark aura outside, which blocks my spiritual sense, so every time I go out, I cannot find the breath of the Sixth Elder. Otherwise, if he and I work together to break through at the same time, we would have a chance to escape!"
Although Gong Shanhe has not been able to escape over the years, he has not been idle. Instead, he has been constantly analyzing and observing, and he quickly expressed his analysis.
This is the heart of a strong man, unyielding and extremely tenacious. If it were someone with a weaker mind, once they guessed such an ending, they would either go crazy or commit suicide long ago.
Gong Shanhe told Li Yan all his judgments so that he could know them as soon as possible so that they could formulate a breakout plan.
Although Gong Shanhe was worried about his daughter, being rash could lead to more trouble.
After hearing this, Li Yan nodded. When he heard Gong Shanhe talk about the three ghostly wind beasts in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, he had already been speculating on the reason. Gong Shanhe's analysis was correct.
“When I came in just now, there were only two Nascent Souls. According to your guess, another Nascent Soul might be guarding the Sixth Elder. Doesn’t that mean that now is a good time to break out!
If Senior Sister Gong happens to be drawn into the same cave as the Sixth Elder, she can reach the combat power of an early Nascent Soul stage when she exerts her full strength.
That ghostly Nascent Soul cultivator was really able to be held back by the two of them, so we are more confident that we can break out!"
Li Yan quickly transmitted the message.
"Okay then, let's give it a try now!"
Gong Shanhe was a decisive person. When he heard about this good opportunity, he certainly didn't want to miss it. Although he was not familiar with Li Yan, this was not the time to get to know him better.
"Wait a minute! Is Patriarch Gong's main injury just a lack of energy and blood? Or does he have other injuries?"
Just as Gong Shanhe was talking and about to take a step, Li Yan spoke again.
Upon hearing this, Gong Shanhe immediately stopped and nodded. He certainly understood what Li Yan meant.
He had already used up about 80% of the pills he had, and what was left were just some ordinary pills. In fact, to him, they were of little use to him.
Therefore, his injury recovery speed is not as fast as before, and he has not been able to fully recover, but there is still a moment of hesitation on his face.
"Patriarch Gong, even if Senior Sister Gong meets the Sixth Elder, it is impossible for the two of them to break out immediately. They also need to communicate information, and the Sixth Elder also needs to recover time!"
Li Yan immediately saw what Gong Shanhe was thinking, that is, if they delayed, they might be suppressed in advance, and the Sixth Elder and Gong Chenying would be injured. Gong Shanhe hesitated for a moment.
"The main problem is that my Qi and blood are greatly depleted, and there is also cold air lingering between my internal organs. However, even without the elixir, I can recover from this cold air as long as I spend more time breathing. Before, whenever I was about to recover, that cold wind would come over..."
Gong Shanhe had a wry smile on his face, which roughly stated his current situation.
"Then take these pills and restore your strength first!"
As Li Yan spoke, he waved his hand and three exquisite small porcelain bottles appeared in front of Gong Shanhe.
A gleam of light flashed in Gong Shanhe's eyes, and then he was no longer polite. Instead, he quickly opened the three porcelain bottles, and refreshing medicinal fragrance wafted from the jade bottles.
What Li Yan took out were pills for replenishing qi and blood as well as mana. These pills all came from the Nascent Soul cultivators he had killed in the turbulent space.
It is extremely useful for Nascent Soul cultivators. Li Yan did not take out the "Rongsun" and "Zhenyuan Dan" because those two treasures are the most life-saving things at the critical moment.
Gong Shanhe immediately poured the pills from the jade bottle into his mouth, then sat cross-legged on the spot, looking defenseless. Li Yan then stood quietly aside, looking at Gong Shanhe with a strange look in his eyes...
After more than half an hour, Gong Shanhe had stood up. At this moment, some muscles appeared on his body again. Although they still looked shriveled, the difference could be distinguished by the naked eye compared to before.
After Gong Shanhe replenished his qi and blood, his flesh and blood began to recover!
However, Li Yan had also tried those pills that replenished qi and blood. If he wanted to refine them, it would probably take at least one to two hours.
Gong Shanhe might be concerned about Gong Chenying, so he should not have completely refined it yet. However, in just half an hour, his blood and energy were restored to this level. Li Yan guessed that this must be related to the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique" he practiced.
"that's it?"
Li Yan asked.
As Gong Shanhe stood up, a popping sound like frying beans came from his body and he twisted his neck.
"It has recovered to about 80%. We can't wait any longer!"
Gong Shanhe was anxious. Even if you asked him to enter a state of complete meditation and breathing, he couldn't do it. To be able to reach this level, it showed that he had an extremely strong character.
"Well, let's go!"
As Li Yan spoke, his mind moved, and the figures of Qianji and Zikun in the distance disappeared. They were dealing with Nascent Soul cultivators, and the two monsters could not help at all.
After Li Yan and Gong Shanhe looked at each other, they turned into two blurry figures and flew quickly towards the cave entrance.
However, Li Yan kept a wisp of spiritual consciousness paying attention to the back. He was not sure whether the terrifying existence deep in the cave was really as they guessed and could not leave the cave at all.
If they cannot leave the cave, it is certainly good news, but this is also the most dangerous time for them. That terrifying existence will attack before they leave. This is the last chance.
… …
A blurry figure holding a spear stood in front of Gong Chenying. Gong Chenying felt a chill in her heart. She was suppressed and couldn't move at all.
"I'm just afraid that you'll move around. My remaining soul doesn't have much power. Don't worry, since you're a human cultivator, I won't hurt you easily! After I ask you about the matter, I'll remove the seal on you."
The somewhat weak figure looked at Gong Chenying.
At this moment, in Gong Chenying's eyes, the shadow in front of her was a nun about forty years old.
He was wearing a loose blue monk's robe and a nun's hat. He looked very pretty, but his eyes showed a sense of vicissitudes that did not match his age.
Although the nun's voice was a little ethereal and even gentle, the meaning of her words was very clear, "I won't hurt you easily", that was the assumption that Gong Chenying didn't have any other bad intentions.
The pretty nun looked at Gong Chenying. While she was speaking, the spear in her hand was suddenly thrown out, and a red light flashed.
The spear suddenly turned at the corner and shot forward. In her hand, the hard spear seemed like steel that had been tempered a hundred times but turned as soft as silk. When it turned the corner of the cave, its movements were smooth and extremely light.
Compared with Gong Chenying's domineering way of using guns, these are two completely different feelings.
Immediately, Gong Chenying heard several shrill screams coming from far away in the cave...
The pretty nun waved her hand again, a red light flashed at the corner, her hand became blurry, and a spear appeared in her hand again.
She looked at the spear in her hand and sighed softly, as if she was not satisfied with her previous attack at all.
"Okay, those 'Yinshan Beasts' are dead, and for the time being the rest of the 'Yinshan Beasts' don't know you're here!! Tell me, who are you? How is the 'Hongfu Temple' doing now?"
The pretty nun lowered her head and looked at Gong Chenying again. Although her figure was a little illusory, there was a blazing light flashing in her eyes, which made Gong Chenying close his eyes.
"It turns out that those wind beasts are called 'Yinshan Beasts'."
Gong Chenying was thinking in his heart and answered with his mouth.
"Tianli tribe, Gong Chenying! Where is the 'Hongfu Temple' that the senior mentioned?"
Gong Chenying answered calmly.
"Tianli tribe? What tribe is this? Are you saying that you don't know about 'Hongfu Temple'?"
After hearing Gong Chenying's answer, the pretty nun's eyes seemed to become even warmer, and a hint of ridicule appeared on her face.
“Senior, the Tianli tribe is a nearby tribe. We have lived here for generations, fighting endlessly with the three wind beast races.
I came here because my tribesmen were trapped here, so I came to investigate. I discovered that there were actually ghosts and wind beasts here. Then, I was chased here by them.
This is the first time I have heard of the 'Hongfu Temple' mentioned by the senior. I wonder where it is?"
Gong Chenying remained neither arrogant nor humble.
"Haha, it seems you still don't know who I am? You carry the 'Hongfu Red Dragon Spear' of the 'Hongfu Temple', or rather, you have the spearhead of the 'Hongfu Red Dragon Spear', yet you still say you don't know the 'Hongfu Temple'
And the place where you are is exactly the underground of "Hongfu Temple". Who are you? You are not from our temple, but you sneaked into our temple and stole the spearhead of "Hongfu Red Dragon Spear".
If I'm not mistaken, you have just been refining this spear not long ago, right? Do you think that I am just a remnant soul and I can't search your soul? I have mercy on the Buddha, but I have to kill the evildoers and eliminate the demons!"
When the pretty nun saw that Gong Chenying was not telling the truth, her beautiful eyes widened.
