Li Yan did not dive into the "Feisha Ancient Cave" just now, but first used his spiritual sense to scan the situation inside. That was because there was a phenomenon in the "Feisha Ancient Cave" that all cultivators knew.
The wind and sand in the air will turn into strong winds from time to time. The interval between two strong winds may be half a quarter of an hour, a quarter of an hour, or even half an hour. There is no regular pattern.
Li Yan didn't know when the last strong wind disappeared. Although it was impossible to guess when the next strong wind would come, if the strong wind just ended, it meant that he was safe at least for a short period of time.
Gangfeng is a terrible strange wind that exists outside the continent. It usually exists in turbulent space. If a living creature is blown by it, the flesh and blood will be blown away from the bones and melted.
Incidentally, the three souls and seven spirits of the person will also be blown away, making it impossible for the person to even enter the cycle of reincarnation.
But when a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul stage, he will have the ability to resist the strong winds due to his powerful cultivation.
This is why only Nascent Soul cultivators have the ability to ascend to the upper realms. This is because during the ascension process, one has to pass through turbulent space, and the strong winds within it are a fatal obstacle.
According to historical records, the reason why strong winds were generated in the "Flying Sand Ancient Cave" was because the heavenly calamity that the great cultivator who had reached the state of incarnation resisted contained a trace of spatial power.
The heavenly tribulations of Yuanying and Huashen cultivators are no longer as common as the heavenly tribulations of foundation building and Jindan formation, or the heavenly tribulations of Jindan formation and Yuanying formation. They are terrifying powers that can destroy the world and move mountains and fill the sea, especially the heavenly tribulations of Huashen, which give people a feeling of the end of the world.
Because of this, when the cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage used his own magic weapon to defend against the heavenly calamity, it was directly destroyed by the force of space, and thus was contaminated by a trace of the force of space in the heavenly calamity.
After the collapse and the formation of the "Flying Sand Ancient Cave", some strong winds appeared here. Even if there was only a trace of strong wind, it was still a strong wind, and any cultivator below the Nascent Soul stage who was touched by it would die instantly.
Although Li Yan chose to escape here, he did not want to dive into the strong wind, as that would be suicide.
So just now, he observed for a while outside the "Flying Sand Ancient Cave" before entering. If the strong wind was raging inside, his consciousness would be shattered in an instant, and he would have to think of another way.
But even without the strong wind, Li Yan was still in danger of death. He had no idea whether the moment he stepped into the "Flying Sand Ancient Cave", the place would suddenly change, and the wind and sand in the sky would instantly turn into a raging strong wind.
But he had no choice. Every step for cultivating immortals was dangerous. Li Yan had often heard Li Wuyi tell him this before.
However, Li Yan used to be in the Wuliang Sect, with the shade of big trees, and could not really experience the dangers of the outside world. This time, he has only been in the world for less than half a month, but he has already experienced life and death several times. Now that he is at his wit's end, he can only fight.
In cultivating immortals, good fortune is also a kind of destiny. Li Yan could only risk his life to make this choice because he didn't want to be caught and have his soul extracted and his spirit refined. Otherwise, he would fall into the hands of the Red Fire Ancestor, and even death would be a luxury.
Li Yan walked more than twenty feet inward at the fastest speed, bypassed several broken walls in front of him, and let his figure be blocked by several sand and stone walls behind him.
He had to at least stay away from the edge of the entrance to the "Flying Sand Ancient Cave" to avoid being caught by the Red Fire Ancestor who arrived later and quickly stepped in and captured him in one fell swoop.
There were four black holes in a row in front of him. They were like ferocious beasts with huge mouths. Li Yan had no time to choose. Instead, he stepped into the nearest black hole.
He could only enter an ancient cave quickly and with some precautions. As for what would happen after entering, he could only take it one step at a time.
Just as Li Yan was about to step into the black hole in front of him, he looked at the yellow sand under his feet rolling into the black hole that was like a huge mouth. Li Yan's body shook violently, as if he had hit an invisible wall, and the whole person bounced outwards in an instant.
Although Li Yan was always on guard against accidents, the feeling of his body hitting an invisible wall, which seemed normal, still made him feel unexpectedly out of balance.
This caught him off guard and he immediately stumbled backwards.
In the wind and sand, Li Yan's figure appeared and disappeared and then stabilized. He couldn't help but let out a light exclamation.
His spiritual sense was always alert to the surroundings, but just now, whether in his vision or in his spiritual sense, he did not find any abnormalities at the entrance of the black hole.
Moreover, he clearly saw that even the yellow sand that was rolling in from afar turned into falling sand flows and entered the black hole without any obstruction.
Li Yan didn't have time to think about it. He could only walk carefully and quickly towards the entrance of another black hole. He took another step, but this time he was on guard and moved very slowly.
When he took half a step, his toes stopped and it was as if he had kicked an invisible wall.
Li Yan's heart skipped a beat. This time, not only was he on guard, but he had also infused his legs with magic power, but he still couldn't get in.
The current situation can only mean that the ancient black hole cave here cannot be entered and exited at will, and there must be some kind of protective prohibition guarding it.
Li Yan did not continue to walk towards the next black hole ancient cave, but stood in front of the black hole in front of him, thinking rapidly in his mind.
“This place was formed by the collapse of a magic weapon of a Divine Transformation cultivator. It is not surprising that there are restrictions on it. However, these restrictions are not complete because the magic weapon was shattered.
Just like the mountain transformed by the magic weapon of Patriarch Hu Chen, only the key parts inside the magic weapon will appear. If we follow this speculation, this is a formation restriction, not some abnormal phenomenon. "
Li Yan thought quickly in his mind. Of course, his idea was also combined with the various information he had read about this place.
However, at the beginning, he wanted to bypass these dangerous places and did not expect to enter here. Therefore, he did not deliberately collect all the information here, but just took it as an understanding.
When Li Yan guessed that what he saw might be a formation restriction, he did not delay any longer.
Fifteen breaths have passed since he entered the "Flying Sand Ancient Cave". The Red Fire Ancestor will arrive soon, but what worries Li Yan the most is the strong wind here, which may change at any time.
Li Yan first retreated seven or eight feet away from the black hole, then he stretched out his finger, and a stream of magic power shot out from his fingertips, directly probing the entrance of the black hole.
Soon, he felt like he was touching a layer of invisible, soft membrane.
Li Yan's magic changed, and the magic power on his fingertips immediately turned into a sharp needle, which pierced into the invisible diaphragm.
In the next moment, Li Yan first felt the magic power on his fingertips tremble, and then a great force was generated from below, which easily broke the needle transformed by the magic power. Then, a scene that made Li Yan palpitate appeared. The sand flow that was slowly flowing inward from the ground at the mouth of the black hole suddenly rotated and instantly turned into a vortex half the size of a person.
As Li Yan looked on vigilantly, the grains of sand on the edge of the vortex instantly formed sharp teeth.
The whirlpool with intersecting sharp teeth was like a flexible python. The moment it was formed, it rose up, and its huge mouth swallowed up Li Yan's magic power.
Just as Li Yan's magic power entered the huge mouth of the vortex, those intersecting sharp teeth began to spin rapidly like wheels.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
With a series of subtle sounds, Li Yan's magic power was crushed into pieces of shattered crystal points.
Li Yan shuddered and quickly severed his connection with the magic power, because he could feel the vortex rising from the ground, like a python, actually had the tendency to attack along with the magic power.
When Li Yan's magic power was cut off, the python-like vortex seemed to have lost its target. After circling around the black hole for a few times, it fell to the ground again and turned into a piece of yellow sand. It slowly merged into a sand flow and continued to flow into the black hole...
Li Yan's expression was blank, and his body retreated a little distance again. But he pinched his fingers again, and a three-colored spiritual light hit the entrance of the black hole again.
Just as the three-colored spiritual light touched the invisible membrane at the entrance of the cave, a vortex appeared on the ground at the entrance of the cave again.
With a "sudden" sound, the sharp teeth in the vortex spun rapidly and swallowed the three-colored spiritual light again.
Li Yan immediately cut off the control over the three-colored spiritual light. After losing its target, the python-like vortex circled for a few times and then scattered to the ground again, turning into a piece of yellow sand, and then slowly gathered into quicksand and flowed away.
This time, Li Yan did not retreat, but raised his hand again, and pointed lightly. A stream of magic power once again hit the entrance of the black hole, but this time, the entrance of the black hole strangely did not respond at all.
"The invisible restriction at the entrance of the Black Hole Ancient Cave is a protective formation. It will not actively attack. Its appearance depends on the strength of the intruder. As long as the force of the intruder is strong enough, or when the formation-breaking formula is used, it will be attacked..."
Li Yan thought in his heart.
At first, he only took one step forward twice. Although he infused his feet with magic power the second time, he was just testing it carefully and with less force.
The third time Li Yan used the magic needle, he used 40% of his strength and immediately activated the restriction at the entrance of the black hole.
If he had not carefully moved away from the cave entrance for a distance, he might have been swallowed up by the sharp teeth of the whirlpool.
And the fourth time, the three-colored spiritual light used by Li Yan was a method of breaking the formation, which once again triggered the attack of the ban at the black hole.
The fifth time, Li Yan reduced the strength of his magic power. He felt that the magic power was just being rebounded back again, and there was no other abnormality.
While detecting, Li Yan silently calculated the time in his mind. Another eight breaths had passed. His previous test was extremely fast.
After making the initial judgment, Li Yan did not stop and cast one spell after another towards the cave entrance. For a while, there were constant rumbling sounds and five-colored spiritual lights exploding.
The vortex, like a spiritual python, circled around the cave entrance and took on Li Yan's attacks again and again.
Li Yan's face became more and more ugly. He had already used more than twenty spells to break the ban, but none of them worked.
Instead, the python-like vortex, after devouring his magic power, suddenly grew several times larger and became more ferocious.
Fortunately, this is just a defensive ban. If it is an active attack, Li Yan can only run as far as he can.
Sweat began to seep out of Li Yan's expressionless face. He had used all the techniques he knew to break the ban, and at this time, forty breaths had passed since he entered the "Feisha Ancient Cave".
There are less than ten breaths left before the safe time he calculated. The Red Fire Ancestor is about to arrive here, and the most deadly gale may appear at any time.
A sharp light flashed in Li Yan's eyes, and all his cultivation suddenly burst out. The five spiritual power cauldrons in his body roared like boiling water, and a tremendous pressure came out with the momentum of heaven and earth.
Li Yan turned it into a punch and smashed it forward flatly. Li Yan's long hair fluttered in the wind and his green shirt made a loud noise.
As he threw a punch, a straight pit twenty feet deep was plowed out on the ground in front of him by the wind from his fist, and yellow sand was rolled up all over the sky, with an extremely powerful momentum.
"boom!"
Then, there was a loud bang that shook the earth, and the entire "Feisha Ancient Cave" seemed to shake.
In the yellow sand, Li Yan's face suddenly changed, and he quickly waved his sleeves to brush away the dust in front of him.
A vortex of spiritual python as thick as two people's waists was drilling through the yellow sand curtain and biting him. Li Yan hurriedly crossed his arms, and five-colored spiritual light flashed on his body to block it.
"boom!"
Another loud noise was heard.
The whirlpool mouth of the spiritual python collided with his arms, and suddenly, various colors of light flashed and intertwined between the two.
Li Yan's face was reflected in the image, and the colors changed rapidly. The light paused for a moment, and then exploded. Li Yan took the opportunity to do a backflip and floated backwards immediately.
