“Who are you? Where are you?” Yun Che raised his head and shouted. Since the other party was aware of his existence and could transmit sound to him, he must be able to hear his voice.
But just like the previous two times, after the sound was heard, it fell silent, and there was no movement for a long time. The sound was equally weak all three times, and could only be barely heard. But Yun Che had a vague feeling... The source of the sound seemed not far away from him.
“Brother Yun, did you hear the strange noise again?” Feng Xue’er asked.
“Yes.” Yun Che nodded, and then comforted him: “Xue’er, don’t be afraid. It may just be an illusion that I am too nervous. This place is so ancient and quiet, there shouldn’t be anyone here.”
“Brother Yun is right beside me, so I’m not afraid.” Feng Xue’er said with a smile. Thinking of what she had said before, her expression darkened again, and she said quietly, “Brother Yun, how is the other Lord Phoenix God?”
“It should be fine.” Yun Che thought for a moment and replied, “The Phoenix Spirit I met told me that its strength was weaker than the Phoenix Spirit of your Phoenix Divine Sect. Your Phoenix God was severely injured back then and has passed away now. The one I met, although it didn’t die back then, should have been seriously injured. But at least three years ago, it was still alive and well.” He paused and said, “If Xue’er wishes, I can take Xue’er to visit that Phoenix Spirit in the future.”
“Okay, okay.” Feng Xue’er agreed happily: “This is also a wish left by Master Phoenix. By the way, Brother Yun, how did you meet Master Phoenix? Can you tell me?”
Yun Che raised his head, a look of nostalgia on his face. This was a secret that he had never told anyone, but facing Feng Xue'er's clear eyes, he could not have the slightest thought of resisting. He smiled lightly and said in a gentle voice, "That was three years ago... At that time, my profound strength had just entered the Profound Realm, and I was being hunted by a person from a branch sect of a sect called Xiao Sect. Then, my current princess wife saved me... But at that time, she was not my wife yet, and I had just met her... She fled with me, and later, the flying profound beast we were riding on ran out of power, and was attacked by the person chasing us, and we fell from the sky together..."
Yun Che recalled the situation at the beginning while slowly recounting it to Feng Xue'er. At the beginning, his voice was quite calm, but gradually, every word he said was involuntarily filled with deep emotions. After all, it was an experience that he and Cang Yue could not forget, and the feelings between them were also sublimated in that adversity. Similarly, it was also a major turning point in his fate. Without that experience, there would not be a series of storms that followed, there would not be a series of grievances brought about by Fenghuang Yan, and there would not be who he is now.
Yun Che talked for a long time, from how he entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range to how he left the Phoenix Trial Site. When he finally finished, he lowered his head and saw Feng Xue'er pursing her lips, breathing as softly as an orchid, and she had fallen asleep.
The heavy blow, the long escape and shock, coupled with the general weakness, although Feng Xue'er had been held in Yun Che's arms, she was already exhausted both mentally and physically. Only after hearing Yun Che's voice did her spirit relax a little bit, and then she could not control her tiredness and fell asleep unconsciously.
Yun Che relaxed his breathing and silently watched Feng Xue'er lightly sleeping. For a moment, he was stunned. Gradually, fatigue came over him. He leaned his head against the cold wall and fell asleep without realizing it.
——————————————
"Please...find...her..."
"Only...you...can...save...her..."
"Please...find...her..."
“Ah…” Yun Che woke up with a start. The voice echoed in his ears for a long time. This time, he couldn’t even tell whether it was a real voice or a voice in his dream.
“Brother Yun…” She didn’t know whether Yun Che’s sudden movement had awakened her or she had already woken up. Feng Xue’er was looking at him with her beautiful eyes flashing, without blinking.
“It’s okay.” Yun Che shook his head: “It’s just that I seem to hear strange noises again.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Che suddenly thought of something. He frowned and asked in his mind, “Jasmine, did I sleep too long just now? How many hours have passed since I entered the Primordial Profound Ark?”
"You didn't sleep too long. As for the time you entered the Primordial Profound Ark... it's already been eleven hours... maybe a little longer."
"Eleven hours?" Yun Che's eyebrows twitched slightly. In other words, in less than an hour, the Archaic Profound Ark would close. And he suddenly remembered what Master Gu Cang had said to Xia Yuanba when he first entered the Archaic Profound Ark... When the Archaic Profound Ark is about to close, you must not be in any closed environment, not even a canyon or a cave! Otherwise, the force field at the twelfth hour would be isolated and could not be expelled from the Archaic Profound Ark!
It will also disappear along with the Taikoo Xuanzhou, and be buried in this Taikoo Xuanzhou forever!
The place where he and Feng Xue'er were now was a truly isolated environment.
After sleeping for a while, Yun Che’s physical strength and profound strength had recovered by 50% to 60%. He picked up Feng Xue’er and said, “Xue’er, we should leave here. In less than an hour, the Primordial Profound Ark will close and we can go out. By then, we will be completely safe.”
“Yeah.” Feng Xue’er responded softly, subconsciously pressing her body closer to Yun Che.
"Let's go."
Yun Che raised his hand and sent a stream of profound energy to the profound formation on the side of the stone door. The profound formation suddenly flashed with profound light, and the tightly closed stone door quickly opened with a rapid rumble. Yun Che carried Feng Xue'er and walked out. Then he saw the stone stairs leading down. He had chosen to enter the stone door next to the stone stairs before, and suppressed his curiosity and did not go deeper, because he was afraid of getting lost. After all, this place was too big, and the layout and color were extremely monotonous. If you were not careful, you would get completely lost.
Walking down the stone steps, Yun Che felt a little more at ease. The Primordial Profound Ark would soon close, and outside, with the Phoenix Sect and Master Ancient Cang, Ye Xinghan and Feng Feiyan would never be able to succeed, and this crisis was finally passed without any danger. The only person he was worried about at the moment was Xia Yuanba. He had a teleportation jade on him, so theoretically he could save his life, but Yun Che couldn't help but worry that he would risk his life to buy himself more time to escape.
Soon, the stone stairs under my feet had already reached halfway down, and the huge hall on the first floor came into view. At this time, Jasmine suddenly made a dull voice: "It really is haunting."
“The ghost is still there? What does that mean?” Yun Che was stunned, and his pace slowed down a bit. Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt cold all over… He felt that he was clearly being firmly locked by an aura!
Yun Che turned his head sharply and looked down in the direction he had come from… In the dim light, he saw a blurry figure rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed.
Ye Xinghan! !
When Yun Che discovered him, Ye Xinghan had already seen Yun Che and Feng Xue’er in his arms. His eyes, which had been gloomy all the time, suddenly glowed with a strange light, and a smile of surprise that was almost crazy appeared on his face: “Haha… Hahahaha! I had originally given up, but I didn’t expect that God would still treat me well! Hahahaha…”
Yun Che had never expected that the Ancient Profound Ark would close in an hour, and that he would encounter Ye Xinghan again in this mysterious and silent castle. His eyes suddenly darkened, and without a second thought, he turned around and rushed upward at the fastest speed.
"I'll see where you guys run this time!!"
Ye Xinghan’s speed was as fast as lightning. In his eyes, since Yun Che had already fallen into his sight, there was no possibility for him to escape. Seeing Yun Che heading straight for the second floor, he smiled grimly, swung his arm, and a dazzling white light suddenly shot out from the Sun and Moon Tribulation, cutting straight through Yun Che’s legs... Obviously, he was afraid of accidentally hurting Feng Xue’er.
Yun Che's figure flashed, and he dodged in an instant with the Star God Fragment. The mysterious light hit the handrail of the stone stairs, making an extremely piercing "ding" sound. The airflow around was greatly shaken, but the place attacked by the mysterious light was intact, without even a trace of damage.
The bricks and tiles here were indeed terrifyingly strong. Not only Yun Che, but even Ye Xinghan's powerful strength could not destroy them in the slightest.
“Hurry and hide in the stone chamber! With your speed, there is no way you can escape from him!” Jasmine said in a deep voice.
Even if Jasmine didn't remind him, Yun Che would still do this, because in this situation, this was his only choice. He rushed to the second floor at the fastest speed, and then headed straight for the courtyard where he had stayed before. When he approached the stone gate, Ye Xinghan had also rushed to the second floor, and was less than twenty feet away from his back. He sneered and said disdainfully: "Still want to run?"
Ye Xinghan’s palm suddenly pushed out, and a violent and extremely violent profound energy rushed straight to Yun Che’s back.
A heavy sense of crisis came from behind. Yun Che had no time to turn around. He quickly protected Feng Xue'er in his arms, and his entire body's profound energy surged crazily...
“Seal the clouds and lock the sun!!”
BANG!!!
A chaotic explosion sounded, and the barrier on Yun Che’s body only lasted for a short breath before it was completely shattered. However, it also resisted most of the impact. The part of the force that was not resisted was still unbearable for Yun Che. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body flew towards the center of the courtyard with the impact force. He flew into a stone chamber like a stream of light, and his body hit the wall inside heavily... But when he fell to the ground, he held his mind with extremely strong willpower, quickly stretched out his arm, and pushed a stream of profound energy in his hand towards the profound formation on the side of the stone door.
Boom boom...
The stone door suddenly closed tightly, isolating Ye Xinghan from outside.
Yun Che lay on his back, gasping for breath, and with some difficulty retracted his outstretched arm. His back was hit by Ye Xinghan's power, and then he hit the stone wall heavily. His blood and energy were in chaos, his internal organs were greatly displaced, and blood kept coming out of the corners of his mouth. However, Yun Che was the only one in the world who could block the attack of a mid-stage Tyrant Emperor with the strength of a late-stage Profound Emperor and not die.
During the whole process, Feng Xue'er was protected by him with all his strength and did not suffer any injuries. However, she was so worried and frightened that she almost cried: "Brother Yun, are you okay...are you okay...Brother Yun..."
“I… I’m fine…” Yun Che panted heavily, then sat up with difficulty. He also helped Feng Xue’er up beside him, letting her lean on his shoulders as they leaned against the somewhat cold stone wall. “I’m fine. It’s just a minor injury.”
Bang! Boom! Ding! Dang! Boom…
Various bombardment sounds came from the direction of the stone gate, which was less than ten steps away from them, but no matter whether it was the stone gate or the stone wall, it did not move at all under this extremely fierce attack. Yun Che held Feng Xue'er's hand and comforted her: "Xue'er, don't worry, he can't get in."
“Hmm…” Feng Xue’er leaned on Yun Che’s shoulder and hugged his arms tightly with both hands.
