Chapter 221 Strange Things Happen One After Another
Hearing this, Su Chen sighed helplessly. He touched Luoluo's head lovingly and said.
"They didn't catch up with us. This place must be revealing something strange. Let's see what the difference is."
Luoluo felt that she had done something wrong and immediately recalled what happened the moment they stopped.
The two walked side by side, and Luoluo suddenly called out softly.
"When we came in just now, I always felt that this place was a little weird."
Green ivy couldn't help but say, she walked to a tree and said slowly, "Look at this mark, I just drew it."
Su Chen took a closer look and she had some vague impression of it.
"We've been walking for so long, have we been going in circles?"
Su Chen frowned tightly, feeling that this illusion was becoming more and more weird.
It seems that they won't be able to get out in a short time.
Far away in the cave, Liu Ruyan rested for a while before getting up and reorganizing herself.
Because she was afraid that Su Chen and Luoluo would come back too early, Liu Ruyan did not choose to go out, but just cleaned up the mess from last night.
The cave was bottomless, and they just found a relatively buffered area to rest yesterday.
Liu Ruyan stayed in the cave alone and felt a little bored after a long time.
Although it is daytime now, the depths of the cave are still bottomless and pitch black inside.
Liu Ruyan suddenly heard a sound of dripping water. The crackling sound of the burning wood was too loud last night, and Liu Ruyan was too tired to hear it.
Now that she had calmed down, she suddenly became curious about the internal structure of the cave. Was the sound of water due to the existence of groundwater inside?
She stood up and walked deeper into the cave.
After walking along a winding path, Liu Ruyan was finally able to get a glimpse of the entire cave. This was not a cave at all. There was an underground river flowing inside, winding its way without a clear end.
Several fish can be clearly seen swimming in the river. Those fish are black all over with a touch of red on their heads. Although it is dark in the cave, their scales are clearly visible and sparkling.
Liu Ruyan's pupils shrank slightly as she looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief.
These fish are not ordinary fish. Outside, even if they are from a top sect, the whole sect will provide for them if they get one, because these fish are full of treasures and they are very likely to be promoted to divine beasts when they grow up. Even the water that flows through them when they are young can help people improve their cultivation.
And there is not just one in this ordinary cave.
In such a simple environment, with just a few fish casually placed there, one can imagine how powerful the owner of the illusion is and how strong his family background is.
Liu Ruyan was so surprised that she was speechless. She tentatively put her feet into the river.
Sure enough, she saw a warm current flowing from her toes to her limbs and bones. Her body, which was somewhat exhausted due to excessive use of spiritual power, was instantly filled with the warm current. She felt comfortable all over and all her fatigue was swept away.
She bent down and tentatively took a fish into her hand. The fish shook its tail slightly and touched her hand a few times, making her hand feel itchy.
Liu Ruyan didn't dare to move these fish easily, for fear of something going wrong, and planned to wait for Su Chen and Luoluo to come back before making a decision.
But after she took a few steps, she discovered that there were intricate patterns carved on the stone wall in the distance.
The patterns are intricately crafted, but some have faded over the years.
When I got closer, I found that there were pictures under the patterns, and the most vivid one was a dragon totem.
The dragon totem looked very familiar. Liu Ruyan felt that she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't think of where. The picture probably depicted the fall of the dragon. The scene was grand and shocking. Liu Ruyan felt her eyes hurt just by looking at the pictures.
It is obvious that these pictures are covered with spiritual power. The strength of the person who carved them is at least at the emperor level. Such pressure is more powerful than anyone Liu Ruyan has ever seen.
She couldn't help but brush past the dragon totem, her eyes empty.
The treasure given by Su Chen and worn around her waist suddenly lit up slightly.
The entire cave was suddenly filled with golden light. Before Liu Ruyan could react, she felt the world spinning. Everything in front of her began to become distorted, and she felt dizzy.
When she opened her eyes again, Liu Ruyan found that she didn't know where she was.
The surroundings were still like the stone walls of a cave, but with the smell of soil, Liu Ruyan realized that this was probably underground and this stone road was probably formed by artificial mining.
There was spiritual fire hanging all around, and it had been there for a long time. The spirits had already dimmed, with only a few left burning slowly.
This spiritual fire is definitely not an ordinary thing and can burn for thousands of years without being extinguished.
Liu Ruyan was pulled into another space. The mural was most likely the door to open the space, but she didn't know what the triggering conditions were.
But since he was here, he had to make the best of it. Liu Ruyan couldn't just sit there and wait for death. There was a wall behind him and no way to go. He could only look at the dark corridor in front of him and keep walking forward.
Half a day passed, and Su Chen and Luoluo still hadn't found the exit. They didn't even know the way they came. They returned to the place marked by Luoluo again.
Green ivy sat down on the ground and said angrily, "I've walked back and forth hundreds of times. I won't walk anymore."
Su Chen was also a little overwhelmed. The scenery they passed by was obviously different every time, but no matter which way they went, they would eventually return to this marked location.
"Are we going to be trapped here to death? I, Su Chen, have a great reputation throughout my life, but if it gets out that I was trapped to death here, it would be hilarious."
Su Chen was also extremely tired. He just lay down on the soft grass and couldn't help complaining.
Since entering this fantasy world, not a single day has gone smoothly for them, and every time they do it they are running around like headless flies.
The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. Although the enemy didn't do anything to them, who can understand this frustrating feeling?
But I can’t go out, it’s so depressing.
Su Chen punched the marked tree, then felt unhappy and kicked it hard a few times.
The tree suddenly shook, and soon returned to calm.
The green radish that was originally lying there dead suddenly jumped up and rushed forward.
"what happened?"
Su Chen was frightened when he saw the green radish suddenly jumping over.
"Master, Master, I feel a different aura."
Green ivy pointed at the tree excitedly, "So familiar, so warm, it's the breath of the master!"
These words made Su Chen begin to wonder. He had only hit the tree a few times without using any spiritual power, so how could there be his aura?
