Chapter 440: All Things Are Straw Dogs (22)
Chapter 440: All Things Are Straw Dogs (22)
Everyone may be a little skeptical, but no one is serious about it at this time.
Because they are preoccupied with more serious matters.
"This fellow Taoist said that this cave is inaccessible?"
"Yes, that's why I'm trapped here."
Si Cen walked to the entrance of the cave and signaled to everyone. As he was about to step out, a faint light appeared at the entrance and a layer of barrier appeared to block his steps.
Everyone looked a little unhappy and went up to try it one after another.
In the end, they found that everyone was like Si Cen and could not get out of the cave.
Moreover, this restriction is extremely sophisticated. No one has been able to break it after trying, proving that the person who placed this restriction has a much higher level of cultivation than them.
"Even Senior Brother can't break this restriction." Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, worried, "We won't be trapped here forever, right? The Taoist friend who entered the secret realm last time said that this secret realm will not be open for more than three months. We have been here for a month and a half."
She suddenly looked at Si Cen with horror, "How long have you been trapped?"
Don’t let it be what she thinks!!!
Si Cen glanced at her slightly pale face and curved his eyes. "When the secret realm was first opened three years ago, I came in accidentally. After I came in, I was unlucky and was chased by the things in the secret realm. I fled to this cave to hide, but also..."
As soon as these words were spoken, not only Bai Xiaoxiao's expression changed, but everyone else's as well.
No wonder he started growing magical rice here!
He was trapped in the secret realm for three years.
No wonder he said he was a casual cultivator from outside who entered the secret realm. However, among the people who entered the secret realm this time, there was no impression of him.
This is also why they are skeptical. Just based on Si Cen's dazzling appearance, if he were a fellow Taoist who entered the secret realm together this time, even if there were a large number of cultivators entering the secret realm this time, it would be impossible for them to have no impression of such a person.
Now what Si Cen said makes sense.
"What should we do? Are we going to be locked up in this secret realm in the future?" Some disciples started to panic.
"I remember that the leading elders from various sects also entered the secret realm this time. If you encounter problems that cannot be solved, you can send a message for help."
Not all the people in this small group are from Yunlu Mountain. In addition to Jiang Huaizhen who is from Wanshou Valley, there are two disciples from other sects. They were unlucky and had not been able to find their fellow disciples, but by chance they met the group from Yunlu Mountain and later formed a team to travel together.
"Since our senior brother is leading the team this time, we didn't send other elders from Yunlu Mountain." Bai Xiaoxiao said, and then looked at the two disciples from other sects, "Would you two senior brothers like to try to ask for help?"
There was hesitation on their faces.
The secret realm experience is not just about training and treasure hunting, it also has the nature of a competition.
The Immortal Alliance has clearly informed that at the end of this secret realm trip, the disciples will be ranked based on their performance and gains in the secret realm, and those ranked higher will receive different rewards.
However, considering the safety of the disciples, each sect is allowed to be led by one elder. However, the leading elder must suppress his cultivation to be fair, and unless it is a life-threatening moment, they are not allowed to rely on the elders, otherwise their performance evaluation will be deducted.
Is this a life-threatening moment?
Not really.
Neither of them came from a big sect, and their own sects were already short of resources. They really valued the gains from this trip to the secret realm, especially the various rewards promised by the Immortal Alliance.
They don't want to drag down the sect or make decisions that will affect their performance unless it is absolutely necessary.
"It's okay, we still have time, let's wait and see." "Lin Feng" said gently, "Let's try to see if we can break this restriction first, and use this time to heal our wounds. If that doesn't work, we still have another way."
Bai Xiaoxiao was the first to object, "Big Brother, you don't mean the one underwater, do you? But there is a giant python on the other side of the water. We can't deal with that python either, and it hates us very much. Once we show up, it will definitely fight us to the death."
"Lin Feng" looked at Bai Xiaoxiao who was about to jump up and down, and smiled soothingly, "Don't worry, I got hurt last time because we had already consumed too much spiritual energy and were not prepared. This time we have recovered, and if we plan carefully, it may not be impossible."
Bai Xiaoxiao: "But..."
"Okay, Junior Sister, what Senior Brother said makes sense. If we ask Daoyou Xiang and Daoyou Wang for help, then all of us here will be asking for help from the sect. Our scores will definitely be affected. Do you want to see Senior Brother lose to that arrogant guy Leng Qingqing?"
No matter how much you say, it won’t be as effective as the last sentence.
Bai Xiaoxiao calmed down instantly.
He even ignited a fierce fighting spirit, "That's impossible! Our eldest senior brother is the chief disciple of Yunlu Mountain, the best. What does that ice cube named Leng mean!"
"That's what I mean. Our senior brother is so powerful, we should all listen to him!"
"Come to think of it, we were so unlucky after entering the secret realm this time. I don't know if Leng Yingying is still as lucky as before. Could he have obtained a lot of rare treasures?" Xu Chuan suddenly said sourly.
This sentence caused everyone in Yunlu Mountain to fall into a brief silence.
It’s not that they are speechless, it’s just that they are actually very sour.
Leng Yingying's good luck has been well-known since he was accepted into the sect, including but not limited to picking up rare treasures whenever he went to the back mountain for a little training, encountering opportunities whenever he did a normal task, always avoiding fatal injuries inexplicably even when everyone was in danger, buying something that no one wanted at a stall but in the end it turned out to be a treasure, he was just picking up a bargain, etc.
It can be said that no one has ever seen anyone with such good luck.
There are countless other lucky moments in life.
All in all, it is a level that anyone who looks at it for a long time will be envious.
In fact, among the people present who entered the secret realm this time, except perhaps Bai Xiaoxiao, who had always been devoted to the eldest senior brother and truly hated Leng Qingqing, who always stole the limelight from the eldest senior brother, everyone else had secretly hoped to meet Junior Brother Leng in the secret realm to varying degrees and travel with him.
After all, it's really easy to come across good things and good opportunities when you are with him.
Unfortunately, every time you enter this secret realm, everyone's landing point is random. Even if they enter the secret realm hand in hand, they will be passively dispersed after entering.
These people feel very regretful.
The more important point is that compared with Leng Yingying's luck, their senior brother seems, probably, maybe... uh, his face is really a little dark.
Commonly known as the unlucky guy.
