The three of them left the space again.
In any case, they must not let their guard down until Chu You breaks through to the Golden Core stage.
Meng Wanwan complained, "As expected, there really isn't a single person in my Meng family with a simple background."
Helian Xiao arrived too late; the large pit had already been filled in by the time he got there.
The pit is large, but not bottomless.
There was water at the bottom of the pit, and it seemed to be flowing in one direction.
After returning with his men, Helian Xiao said, "It looks like an ordinary pit, but because there is flowing water underneath, it has collapsed again and again."
He didn't sense any fluctuations in spiritual energy or malevolent energy, so he wasn't sure what it was.
However, Xianglai Village is very strange, that is an indisputable fact.
Meng Wanwan sighed. Being led by the nose like this is really not a good situation.
She really wanted to do something...
Night falls.
Li's father prepared some food for them, and after eating, Li and his wife went to bed.
A figure quietly emerged from the Li family's residence and swiftly sped westward.
"Niannian, can you feel anything?" Meng Wanwan asked Niannian as she ran quickly.
Niannian said, "I don't feel much of a difference. There's just a tiny bit of spiritual energy, but not much. If this water came from another place with spiritual energy, that would make sense."
Meng Wanwan snorted. She, Meng Wanwan, had stopped believing in coincidences long ago after she came into this world.
After all, he'd been fooled by her coincidences far too many times; he was numb to it all.
It's better to just say that God gave her another clue.
Meng Wanwan increasingly felt that she had transmigrated here not to level up, fight monsters, change maps, and become the heroine of a wish-fulfillment novel.
It's like God is playing a puzzle game on behalf of the dog God.
Once Meng Wanwan accepts this premise, she finds fault with everyone.
Even if it's just an ordinary pit, she'll scan it with her mind if a tree branch suddenly appears.
"Master, we've arrived."
Niannian flew out from between Meng Wanwan's eyebrows and landed in her hand.
Meng Wanwan quickly stopped and stepped onto a relatively soft ground.
Meng Wanwan stepped on it and said, "There is indeed a faint spiritual energy, so faint that it can be ignored."
Or is she just overthinking things?
"Do we want to go back?" Niannian asked softly.
Meng Wanwan circled the area once, then lightly stomped her foot.
"I wonder if it will collapse again, here..."
Boom!
Before she could finish speaking, with the stomp of her foot, a tremendous sound came from somewhere underground as something collapsed with a deafening roar.
Meng Wanwan felt the ground beneath her feet trembling, and the entire earth began to shake.
"Holy crap! An earthquake?" Meng Wanwan exclaimed.
The sound did not originate from beneath her feet, but from the mountains further west.
But what is certain is that it is underground.
Meng Wanwan wanted to leave this area as soon as possible, but it was too late.
She heard Nian Nian's explosive roar in her ears: "Master, it's collapsed!"
Several familiar shouts could be heard behind me.
Meng Wanwan felt as if the ground beneath her feet was sucking her in like a swamp, the soil that had been covering her was all washed away, and the violent current of water crashed against her body.
The earth was still trembling. Meng Wanwan, who had been swept away by the water and disappeared from the spot, did not see it. It seemed that something sleeping underground in the entire Xianglai Village was suddenly awakened, turned over, and all the houses in the village were arched up, fell down, arched up again, and fell down again.
The trees on the mountain fell one after another, and a crack seemed to cleave the mountain horizontally, growing wider and wider, cutting through the entire Xianglai Village and spreading to the edge of the large pit, and then continuing to extend into the distance from the other side.
Cries and screams echoed through the village as many people ran out.
Yun Zhao and Helian Xiao had already run to the edge of the pit and jumped in without thinking.
Chu You was simple-minded. Seeing Yun Zhao jump and his junior sister follow, he jumped down without hesitation.
Captain Helian was completely numb, and shouted, "Follow the young master!"
So he jumped down with his men.
--
To the west, on the other side of the mountains.
The night was deep.
Congying fumbled for the skewers for the meat in her hand, her gaze somewhat unfocused.
Her chaotic mind couldn't find peace, making her extremely anxious. She felt like she had forgotten something, but she couldn't quite remember what it was.
That ambiguous feeling made the hairs on her body stand on end.
So much so that Lanqiao lay beside her, trembling and drenched in cold sweat, without her even noticing.
"Tree……"
Lan Qiao struggled to sit up, his peerless face contorted in pain. Images flashed through his mind, like being slowly sliced apart, scraping at his brain.
"Tree...tree..."
Congying turned to look at him and was immediately startled: "Lanqiao, what's wrong with you?"
Lanqiao closed her eyes and hugged her head tightly.
"Tree...three people..."
"What's wrong?" Han Rui opened his eyes and walked over when he heard the voice.
Congying's eyes flashed with impatience, and she immediately pulled Lanqiao to stand up: "My brother's illness has flared up, so to avoid accidentally hurting him, I'll take him away for a while."
Having said that, he was about to take Lanqiao away.
Just then, the woman in white suddenly stood up and looked eastward.
"It has appeared."
She clenched her hands and took a step forward.
As soon as she finished speaking, the earth began to tremble, and a huge crack appeared directly beneath their feet.
The people from Tanmeng Palace quickly protected the woman in white and retreated. Congying also wanted to retreat, but unexpectedly, Lanqiao stopped struggling after the crack appeared. Instead, she pushed Congying aside and jumped down.
Cong Ying was terrified!
What are you doing?!
You're asking for trouble and trying to drag others down with you!
Congying, on the verge of tears, also jumped down.
She was certain that if Meng Wanwan found out that Lan Qiao had jumped down and she hadn't, Meng Wanwan would definitely punish her by forbidding her from ever leaving the space again.
"Miss Cong!" Han Rui shouted, stunned for a long time by this unexpected turn of events.
However, the next second, a white figure also jumped down.
Han Rui...
Are you making dumplings?
So efficient?
One by one, the people from Tanmeng Palace jumped off.
Han Cui sneered: "I've never seen one person after another go looking for death."
Han Rui gave her a cold glance and then jumped down as well.
Han Cui...
Damn it...
She jumped down too.
Just after they all jumped down, the shaking of the entire earth began to slowly stop.
However, the cracks did not disappear.
--Chongyang Palace
A beam of extremely green light suddenly enveloped the magnificent Chongyang Palace at the very top of the building, completely enveloping it.
Then it shattered like glass, the fragments turning into wisps of resentment that dissipated into the air.
Just after this layer of light disappeared, an even smaller light flashed across the sky above Chongyang Palace.
It appears, then disappears.
However, Chongyang Palace remained deathly silent, as if no one was inside.
In the forests of northern Vietnam.
Shangguan Liuyue was gazing at the starry sky when suddenly her feet trembled.
He heard a sigh.
"One of the shackles has been broken; I await my return."
