Seeing that the woman in red had no problem taking so many treasures, everyone became greedy and followed her to take other treasures.
However, at this moment something strange happened. A huge strong wind came and before everyone could react, they were blown unconscious by the strong wind!
The gale was not an ordinary gale. Once it touched a person's body, it would cause the person to lose all strength, and then all the blood, flesh and essence in the body would be directly evaporated, and the whole person would become a corpse within a few breaths!
Duan Qifeng stopped trying to be a hero and immediately escaped from the exit of the light curtain barrier. A few people with quick reactions followed him, but the rest of the people were not so lucky, so they were all trapped inside and turned into dried meat by the strange strong wind.
After a moment, Duan Qifeng said helplessly, "I'm so incompetent! I watched everyone die. If I could hold on a little longer, I'm afraid everyone would have made it out alive!"
"Brother Duan, there's no need to blame yourself so much. Ultimately, they were just too greedy. Everyone could see that the place was dangerous. You tried to persuade them to leave, but they wouldn't listen. If everyone had listened to you from the beginning, this wouldn't have happened."
"Yeah, I didn't expect the gale to be so strong this time. Even the peak strength of the gods can't withstand it. We are too careless!"
The few people who managed to escape were very grateful to Duan Qifeng, because if Duan Qifeng had not helped them open the light curtain barrier, they would probably have died in there!
Duan Qifeng took a breath, and when his strength had almost recovered, he spoke again, "We don't know what the situation is inside now. Why don't we go in and take a look? If anyone is still alive, we can save them!"
When they heard this, everyone agreed, so Duan Qifeng looked very strenuous and opened the light curtain barrier directly, and then everyone went in again.
At this time, the side hall was in shambles. The strong wind had dissipated, leaving only corpses on the ground. Duan Qifeng sighed and said, "It's fate. Everyone should take down their space rings. We can't let the treasures be covered in dust!"
Everyone nodded in agreement. There were more than 30 corpses on the ground, and there were less than 10 people present, so it was enough for everyone to share. Long Junhai did not pick up too many space rings, but only took the space ring from the corpse closest to him.
People didn't pay much attention to a timid person like Long Junhai. After all, everyone could see that the reason why Long Junhai was still alive was not because of his strength, but because he was too cautious and had good luck. Otherwise, he would have died on the stone bridge the first time!
There are a total of eight people alive now. Long Junhai looked at the fourth side hall and estimated that this was the most dangerous one, so he did not plan to go in this time.
"Huh? Brother, aren't you going in?" Duan Qifeng asked curiously.
"I'm not going. I feel my strength is too weak. If I go in again, there might be a bigger disaster. I'll wait here for you all to return safely." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"Well, let's go and take a look at the situation inside first. Maybe this time will be safer than before." After Duan Qifeng said this, he and everyone else entered the fourth side hall.
Long Junhai stood outside and waited quietly. He didn't know what was happening inside, but he guessed that the situation was not going to get any better.
Time passed little by little. About half an hour later, Duan Qifeng and the woman in red walked out of the side hall with difficulty. They looked as if they were seriously injured, while the others had disappeared.
Although this side hall is very dangerous, Long Junhai can be very sure that the people who died in it are most likely related to these two people!
"Brother, you knew very well that you didn't go in. It was too dangerous in there. You were attacked by countless icy blades before you even saw the treasure. Fortunately, we defended in time, otherwise it would be difficult to get out!" Duan Qifeng said with a bitter face.
"Yes, my brother and I are both seriously injured. I'm afraid we can't go any further this time. Brother, how about we go back?" asked the woman in red.
"Wouldn't it be like giving up halfway if we went back now? We've already collected a lot of treasures, but there are definitely more treasures inside! We can heal our wounds first, and then continue on our journey. Brother, can you help protect us two? Our injuries are too severe!"
Duan Qifeng spat out a mouthful of blood as he spoke, and it looked as if he was really going to die soon.
However, Long Junhai had already seen through the two men's self-torture tactics. The other party just wanted him to take the initiative to attack, and then they would counterattack and kill Long Junhai by surprise!
In fact, Long Junhai's guess was correct. Duan Qifeng and his junior sister were not going to heal their wounds, but to launch a joint attack. It was just that the preparation time was a bit long, so he said this to calm Long Junhai's heart.
Long Junhai smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll be here to protect you!"
After saying this, Long Junhai took out his Shenglong Sword and prepared for defense.
Duan Qifeng and his junior sister looked at each other, neither of them said anything, but continued to pretend to practice qigong to heal their injuries, but in fact they had already begun to prepare for a joint attack.
Long Junhai did not relax his vigilance either. His attention was always on the two of them. The sword intent in his body began to brew to its peak state, and he could kill the two of them at any time!
A moment later, Duan Qifeng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "Junior sister! I can't do it anymore! The cold poison in the ice is too strong! I can't accompany you anymore!"
"Brother! Brother, how are you? Open your eyes and look at me!" The woman in red cried heartbreakingly. The cry seemed to have a special magical power that made Long Junhai drowsy!
Long Junhai secretly cried out in disbelief, he didn't expect that the other party would plot against him at this time!
"Get started!"
Seeing that Long Junhai was in low spirits, the woman in red shouted loudly, and Duan Qifeng, who was originally unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes, and the two of them drew their swords and rushed over!
The sword energy of these two people was one soft and feminine, while the other was upright and unyielding. When they intertwined with each other, they actually transformed into a very special sword intent, giving people a sense of oppression on the soul!
Fortunately, Long Junhai's soul was huge and sharp, and he immediately realized that the opponent's sword intent belonged to the sword of the soul, so he quickly used his own sword intent to protect his soul. Only someone like him who can freely control the sword intent can protect his soul in such a short time!
The sword intents of both sides collided with each other. Long Junhai's sword intent was tenacious and he was not at a disadvantage against the soul sword intent.
