For the time being, they had not found any effective way to leave the stone forest. Yang Qi and the other two immediately realized that if they wanted to leave the stone forest, they could only pass the test left by the owner of Anzhong Island in the stone forest to have a chance!
Thinking of this, Yang Qi and the other two immediately calmed down and began to carefully sense everything around them. Soon they discovered that some of the stone pillars in front of them had no barriers between them and they could walk through them freely, while some were separated by invisible walls and could not be walked through directly.
Immediately, Yang Qi and the other two followed a gap in the stone forest in front of them and headed towards the depths of the stone forest. However, before they had gone far, they discovered that the road ahead was divided into three, leading to three different directions.
"What should we do now?" Emperor Luo Feng looked at Yang Qi and Emperor Ji Yan standing beside him.
Because the road ahead is divided into three different roads, whether they continue to travel together or disperse to explore will directly affect their subsequent actions in the stone forest.
"I suggest that we travel together." Yang Qi glanced at Emperor Ji Yan and continued, "Based on the current situation, the stone forest in front of us is likely to be a trap, mainly to trap practitioners. With very limited knowledge of the stone forest, it is very dangerous to choose to act separately."
Yang Qi and the other two were not good at formation techniques. If they encountered any trouble on the road, they would be trapped without a companion to consult with. Therefore, in Yang Qi's opinion, the three of them should not act separately, otherwise they would be more likely to fall into danger.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Ji Yan could not help but nod slightly. He had a similar opinion to Yang Qi. Now they had very limited knowledge of the stone forest in front of them. It was indeed not a wise move to disperse their actions at this time.
Immediately, Yang Qi and the other two chose a passage on the right and continued along the road towards the depths of the stone forest.
However, before Yang Qi and the other two had gone far, their expressions changed slightly and their gazes turned towards the depths of the stone forest. Just now, they felt a slight unusual fluctuation.
Emperor Ji Yan looked into the depths of the stone forest and said in a deep voice, "It came from over there."
"Walk!"
Without any hesitation, Yang Qi and the other two immediately headed in the direction where the wave came from. When they encountered a blocked passage on the way, they immediately took a detour.
In this way, after a moment, they finally felt the slight fluctuation clearly, and the expressions of Yang Qi and the other two suddenly froze.
Yang Qi and the other two looked at each other, and then said in unison, "It's the fluctuations of the cultivators fighting."
Different from the situation when Yang Qi and his companions encountered the seven practitioners in the Gobi Desert before, what Yang Qi and his companions sensed at this moment was the fluctuations caused by the fighting between the practitioners.
Obviously, in that direction, there were two groups of practitioners who had a conflict for some unknown reason. But this was good news for Yang Qi and the other two. They entered the stone forest in front of them, but they knew nothing about it.
Now that they have encountered other practitioners, and more than one team, they may be able to learn some information about the stone forest in front of them from them. Information that may even cause conflicts among practitioners often means opportunities for treasures, and they also want to see it.
Immediately, Yang Qi and the other two sped up. After darting left and right, they finally arrived at a huge open space surrounded by stone pillars and saw several practitioners who were in conflict.
Both teams consist of three practitioners, each of whom is at the mid-stage Nine-Star Martial Emperor. The difference in strength between the two sides is very small, so this conflict seems to be evenly matched, with no one having the upper hand.
When Yang Qi and his two companions arrived, the six practitioners who were in conflict also noticed their arrival. The originally fierce battle quickly slowed down. The two teams of practitioners quickly put aside their conflicts and looked at Yang Qi and his two companions with vigilance.
After all, among Yang Qi and the other two, the lowest level of cultivation was at the middle stage of the Nine-Star Martial Emperor, and there were two practitioners at the late stage of the Nine-Star Martial Emperor. Even if the six practitioners joined forces, they might not be the opponents of Yang Qi and the other two. Facing the arrival of Yang Qi and the other two, they naturally did not dare to be careless.
Seeing the six practitioners' alert faces, Emperor Ji Yan quickly said, "Fellow Daoists, don't be nervous. We don't have any bad intentions."
Unfortunately, the practitioners of the two teams obviously did not completely believe the words of Emperor Ji Yan. After all, they did not know each other, and they met in a place like Dark Heavy Island. It was very common for Emperor Ji Yan and his three men to rely on their strength and means to kill people and seize treasures. How could the six practitioners easily believe the words of Emperor Ji Yan
Yang Qi and the other two were not surprised when they saw this. If a random sentence could easily dispel the other party's guard, many practitioners like this would have died long ago, and it would be impossible for them to practice to this level.
Emperor Ji Yan looked at the six practitioners not far away and said calmly, "We are new to this stone forest and have very limited knowledge about it. We noticed that there were practitioners fighting here, so we came here. I mainly want to ask a few fellow Taoists if they know more about this stone forest."
Hearing the words of Emperor Ji Yan, the six practitioners couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. What Emperor Ji Yan said was reasonable, although they didn't completely believe it. But since Emperor Ji Yan and his two companions hadn't taken action, it was unlikely that they wanted to deal with them. It wasn't strange that they came just to inquire about the situation of the stone forest in front of them.
"You are too polite, fellow Daoist." A man in a blue-grey robe stepped forward and looked at Emperor Ji Yan and said, "We have not been in this stone forest for too long, but according to our understanding, this stone forest is constantly changing. It is almost impossible to walk out directly."
Is the Stone Forest constantly changing
Hearing the words of the man in the blue-grey robe, the expressions of Yang Qi and the other two changed slightly. They had just entered the stone forest. Although they knew that the stone forest might be a trap and it was difficult to leave directly, they did not expect that the stone forest itself was still changing. This undoubtedly increased the difficulty of leaving the stone forest directly.
Yang Qi and the other two did not have any doubts about the words of the blue-grey robe man. After all, it was not difficult to judge the truth of this matter. If the blue-grey robe man deceived them, they would not let him go easily if they met in the stone forest next time. Therefore, as long as the other party was not stupid, he would not deceive Yang Qi and the other two on such a matter that could be easily judged true or false, and provoke a strong enemy for no reason.
