"Don't worry, leave them to me." Yan Yuchu agreed without hesitation.
As for the so-called rare treasure, he didn't even ask. The only one who could help him now was Mu Hanyan. Without his help, any so-called rare treasure would be nothing.
…
In the distance, Qu Fengting had gathered all the young swordsmen together, ready to head towards the cracks in the cliffs again.
Suddenly, a red light shot up into the sky, dyeing the morning light that had just emerged in the dark sky red, as if it were ignited.
At the same time, a sense of overwhelming power enveloped the heaven and earth, making it difficult to breathe.
Everyone looked at this scene in shock and was stunned.
…
At the same time, in the ancient ruins deep in the Longyan Mountains, a loud bang was heard from the stone tablet, and several mentors including Duan Tianya and Pang Dezong were knocked to the ground at the same time.
"What happened? How could this happen?" A younger instructor stood up and said in horror.
"We failed again. I don't know what happened, but it feels like some ancient seal has been opened. Unless the barrier opens by itself, I'm afraid we will never be able to open this barrier." Pang Dezong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said helplessly.
"It is indeed an ancient seal, but I don't know what is sealed in it?" Duan Tianya's cultivation level is higher, but he was also shocked and embarrassed, and said with a serious expression.
Several people looked at each other, their expressions became heavier, and they all remembered the ancient legend.
"I hope someone can hold on until the moment the barrier opens on its own." Pang Dezong said with a long sigh.
At this point, they are powerless and can only rely on the young swordsmen to find a way to survive on their own.
But he also knew that if the legend was true, no one would be able to hold on until that moment.
"Pass on my order, all disciples, be on high alert. Once the barrier is opened, go in and rescue people immediately." Duan Tianya was more composed and gave the order calmly.
"I hope someone can hold on." Duan Tianya prayed silently in his heart. Although he knew that the possibility of someone surviving was slim, he still held on to the last glimmer of hope.
…
In the Valley of Strange Beasts.
"That must be the barrier passage left by the ancient strongmen. Let's go there quickly." Qu Fengting pointed at the crevice in the cliff where the red light suddenly appeared and shouted with his arms raised.
He could no longer conceal his inner excitement, and his face was even a little distorted, but no one noticed anything unusual. They had finally found the "passage" to escape from the desperate situation, and everyone was equally excited.
"Let's go quickly. The passage might close automatically when the time comes." Someone shouted, and everyone rushed towards the cliff like moths to a flame.
Mu Hanyan certainly knew that this was not a passage. Even if it was, it was a passage leading to the abyss of death. Fearing that something might happen to Mu Feng, she set out to chase him. Yan Yuchu, Wu Qiyun and others also followed quickly behind him.
The rising sun cast its light on the earth again. The burning flames seemed to have dimmed a lot. Fearing that the passage would be closed again, everyone moved forward with all their might.
No one noticed that the nameless tomb behind Mu Hanyan and the others still looked gloomy and cold even under the sunlight. There seemed to be a faint gray-green aura covering the tomb, full of unwilling resentment.
It is said that when one's strength reaches a certain level, if one is unwilling to accept an unexpected death, the resentment will linger for a long time, and may even turn into a regret that will last forever in the world. This is what happened to Mu Tianlie.
