"No, the barrier here, while difficult to break, must have a way to break it. It's not a ploy to trap us to death." Amid the clamor and bickering, Xi Chen suddenly spoke. "Furthermore, even if the spirit beasts here have cultivated for a long time, they have never surpassed the wisdom of humans."
"That means this is a smart move?" Dongcheng Yao curled the corners of his mouth and looked at Luo Wen. His eyes turned and a thought appeared in his eyes in an instant.
"What does this mean? Please explain clearly to the three family heads." Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what they meant.
"How foolish." Dongcheng Yao slowly drew out the folding fan from his waist and said with a smile, "Though those spirit beasts are furious, they clearly have something more important to do than attack you."
"What does the head of the Dongcheng family mean?" Everyone was still confused, and a middle-aged man couldn't help but step forward and ask.
Covering the corners of his mouth slightly with his folding fan, Dongcheng Yao looked at everyone with mockery, "The ultimate goal of those spirit beasts is this place, but their intelligence is not yet able to completely break through the barrier left by our ancestors, so we accidentally stumbled into this place."
"As for attacking?" Dongcheng Yao waved his hands helplessly. "Who told you to block their path? All the spirit beasts responded from all directions. You suddenly barged in, running around without knowing what was going on. Who else should we attack if not you?"
Uh… everyone was speechless. According to Dongcheng Yao, it seemed like the root cause of their own casualties was their own? Was it their own recklessness that led to the attack? In the end, despite suffering heavy casualties, they still gathered where the wild beasts most wanted to come, waiting for the numerous spirit beasts to attack at any moment? This… this was too ridiculous.
"Then according to Brother Luo Wen, what those beasts really want to get is something here? Could it be..." After mocking everyone, Dongcheng Yao, who was still confused, continued to ask Luo Wen.
Luo Wen shook his head. "The truth is still unknown."
"However, the most important thing right now is to open the second barrier. Does anyone, not just Lord Luo, have a solution?" Xi Chen stepped forward and asked Luo Wen, "If we don't open the second barrier, the spirit beasts will gather here sooner or later. When that happens, the power of the first barrier will be instantly shattered."
Luo Wen looked at Xi Chen coldly, but didn't speak. Xi Chen smiled faintly, but didn't ask any further questions. He was gambling. After all, everyone knew that only those who could enter the hall where the second barrier was located could seize the ancient jade. Luo Wen could have avoided reminding everyone, but he generously told them the truth. So, he was gambling. Since Luo Wen dared to speak out, he must have some uneasy factors, which is why he wanted to tell everyone, to use their strength to win a last chance.
In this case, he would definitely not let everyone die first. As he said, this place has a fatal attraction to all spirit beasts, so sooner or later all the spirit beasts will gather here, and these two barriers alone cannot stop them. So this is the real reason why Luo Wen left them here.
Seeing Xi Chen looking towards him with a thoughtful look in his eyes, Luo Wen no longer hid his thoughts and nodded generously, "Although the barrier is difficult to break, if we can find the key, it can be cracked."
