She took another fork in the road, also walking slowly, carefully checking for any secret passages or doors.
Mo Chuan had indeed solved the illusion here, and the scenery that came into view was completely different. Even if Lin Wu did not open his spiritual eyes to identify the road, he would not be trapped in a certain area, and he walked smoothly.
However, two hours later, Lin Wu finally stopped and fell silent.
During her search, she used a compass to note down all the routes, and now the entire terrain was in her mind. She was sure that she had walked all the way here, and even walked through it a second time to confirm.
——What Makawa said is correct.
This is just an independent place suitable for retreat.
So she really just came here by accident and really went to the wrong place.
But it doesn't matter if you find the wrong one, you can just look for it again after you get out. Those archaeologists won't disappear from this world alive, so you can still find it.
After searching for so long, Lin Wu discovered that one needs to use mystical techniques to open the entrance to enter and exit here, and there is no actual mechanism that can be controlled.
The problem was, she came in by accident, and had no idea what mysterious technique Mochuan had set up.
How about going back to where we came in? Theoretically speaking, most of the mysterious arts of going in and out are connected in the same place.
Since her blood could trigger it to come in by accident, it could probably trigger it to go out as well. I'll find a way to solve it then.
Lin Wu returned to his original place.
There was only an empty stone path.
She estimated the location where she fell, and groped for a long time but couldn't find the magic there. It was no use opening her spiritual eyes.
"Did I miscalculate? The method to get out isn't here?"
Lin Wu looked for another place.
Not long after, Lin Wu stopped silently.
She could now feel and confirm that there was no trace of magic here.
In other words, there is no mysterious magic leading to the outside world here. It is just a secret place isolated from the outside world.
Who else can do this? It's just Mo Chuan.
She had not yet learned the art of entering and exiting, and had only a limited understanding of space-related mystical arts, so she could not get out by herself. If she wanted to leave, she had to rely on Mochuan to open the entrance and exit.
Thinking of Mo Chuan's meaningful look when she left the stone chamber, Lin Wu deeply suspected that he did it on purpose! He removed the magic and illusion of leaving, and stopped her from leaving. He wanted her to go back obediently.
She won't go back! Lin Wu sat down cross-legged on the ground, leaning against the wall with his arms folded, sulking.
"No, it's impossible for me to admit defeat..."
Lin Wu closed her eyes and carefully recalled the magic that Mochuan had passed on to her.
There should be some space-related magic among them, right? She just learned it on the spot.
Not to mention, Lin Wu actually found three methods that could open space cracks and travel to other places, but they were all very obscure and complicated, which gave Lin Wu, who had just changed his career path to Master Yu Xuan, a headache.
She opened her eyes, murmured and gestured, and soon found that adding her own blood would make the success rate higher. She pulled out the dagger without hesitation and slashed it across her palm.
At the critical moment, a big hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Lin Wu looked up and met a pair of slightly cold black eyes.
There was also a man squatting in front of him.
It's Mochuan! "When...when did you come?"
This was indeed the case. The other party snatched her dagger and threw it far away.
"Just when you sat down in anger," the man said.
"You've been following me?"
Lin Wu frowned.
"Not before. But the master said that I will only give you half an hour to play. I will find you in half an hour."
“…I’m not playing!”
"oh."
“…”
Damn it.
Without waiting for Lin Wu to continue expressing his dissatisfaction, Mo Chuan stared at Lin Wu and asked, "What were you doing just now?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
Lin Wu was a little petty, and she was so angry that she had to find a chance to vent her anger, and now she had found one.
She said, "Senior, you have been following me for so long, can't you see it? Oh, I suddenly remembered that you said before that you have lived for many years. I thought you were joking. Now it seems that you are really old and your eyesight is really bad."
"So you really want to cut yourself just to cast the spell?" Mo Chuan didn't care about Lin Wu's sarcasm, but what he said next made Lin Wu's face even more gloomy than if he had just fought back.
He looked at Lin Wu in confusion and said, "Using blood to perform mystical arts is the worst strategy and the most stupid approach - you hurt the enemy by one thousand and lose eight hundred of your own. Besides, blood is very precious to a mystical master and cannot be used. Don't you understand? Or are you... you are so weak now that you can only use blood for the time being?"
“………”
"Are you so unskilled now?" Mo Chuan couldn't figure it out. The confusion in his words sounded more like confusion to Lin Wu as to how his disciple, who was destined to be his master, could be so weak and stupid. Therefore, he was a little shocked and had a headache.
“…………”
In all his years of life, Lin Wu had never heard others complain about his weakness so many times in one day! So many times!
Lin Wu was so angry that he laughed.
"Yes, I'm not that good as a master!" Lin Wu stared at the man in front of him, "Because I've only been learning for four or five years, and I don't have a formal master to teach me. I've always been self-taught! In these four or five years, I have to spend most of my time trying to survive and make money!"
Mochuan was slightly stunned.
Lin Wu felt a little regretful after she finished speaking. Why did she talk so much nonsense with a stranger? This man was obviously not an ordinary master of the mystical arts. Discussing the mystical arts with him was like she had a brain seizure. How could she win the argument? Yes, she was not good now, so what? It's not like she has no room for improvement! Lin Wu held her breath and stopped looking at Mo Chuan. She propped herself up to pick up the dagger and planned to continue what she had just unfinished.
But he was pulled back by Mochuan again.
"put……"
"You didn't have a master before, but you do now."
Mo Chuan interrupted Lin Wu and looked at her with his eyelids slightly raised. "I will teach you the first lesson now. Do not use blood in mystical arts. Because your body is precious and is more important than success or failure."
"So, you can't make a habit of hurting yourself or giving up on yourself easily. You have to learn to take care of your body and not take any injury lightly."
Lin Wu was stunned.
