"In other words, this is most likely a moving maze?" Yunwen asked.

I nodded.

"We are too trapped in this maze. We should actually jump out of it. We shouldn't think along its lines. Otherwise, we will be tricked back here again and again. We should find another way out," I said.

"A path? But here, the only way is to go forward or backward, and there are some forks at most. We don't know where to go to find a path, unless we chisel open the stone wall next to it, which may be very tiring. But we can try it. Other than that, I haven't thought of any other way." Yunwen said.

If it weren't for the gurgling sound just now, perhaps I would have been like all the wild animals and living people trapped here, thinking only of escaping. I thought that if I walked one more time, and tried different ways of walking, maybe I could really leave. But that wouldn't be competing with the root of heaven and earth, that would be competing with myself. I couldn't get out so many times before, could I possibly be able to get out by walking two more times?

It's just a fantasy. This evil creature wants to trap and kill all living things. It has been entangled in this underground for who knows how many years to build such a huge maze. It is likely that countless things have been trapped and killed. Since it is experienced, how could it easily make mistakes and get out by chance? Therefore, it is only because we are in this mountain, and the solution can only be found in this mountain and here.

"You said that the Mother Root of Heaven and Earth would trap tired living things and swallow them alive to nourish the mother body, right?" I asked.

"Yes." Yunwen nodded.

"Since it wants to swallow us alive, it must trap us in the place where it is most convenient for it to swallow us, so that it can swallow us. Otherwise, its mother body underground will have to move, which is troublesome. Now we are in a place that has not changed. No matter how we go around, we end up here. Look around, there are dense flowers and plants, and the purple mist is thick. The earth and stone walls are also denser and taller than the surrounding ones. The soil on the ground is relatively dark, and its fertility is more sufficient than the surrounding ones. This can only mean one thing." I looked at Yunwen and analyzed.

Yunwen understood what I meant immediately and said with a smile: "The one who seeks dragons is not looking for the outer dragon, but the inner dragon."

We looked at each other and smiled.

The maze is no bigger than the dragon outside, which is just bluffing and a tiger on paper, hoping to scare people to death. But as a dragon-seeking envoy, I should learn to see through the external appearance and find its essence, to find the key, which is the inner core, and this inner core is the basis for solving all problems.

"Do you have a way to let Sanfu lend me the power contained in its body?" I asked.

Yunwen nodded and tried to communicate with Sanfu. Since Sanfu devoured the dragon soul scale, it has become more spiritual. Although we don't speak the same language, no matter what we express, it seems that it can understand something. Maybe it's because it has been with humans for a long time. In addition, it is no longer an ordinary creature. It often observes us, so it can understand the general meaning of what we express.

After Yunwen finished talking, Sanfu walked towards me with its head held high. Then it looked at me for a long time, then proudly lowered its head and pointed its dragon horns at me. I was a little surprised, but immediately understood what it meant, so I grasped its dragon horns. In an instant, the Jinque Sword shone with golden light and glowed golden again.

The so-called two dragons fly together, Qian and Kun coexist, the Golden Palace is Qian, and the Dragon Scales are Kun. These two treasures are a match between Qian and Kun, and they can be used together, which can really open up another way of life.

"Get ready and step back." I said to Yunwen.

Yunwen stepped back obediently.

Then I raised the Jinque Sword that was emitting golden light, and swung it down fiercely. There was only a dull sound at first, but then the whole earth shook continuously. The earth walls of the surrounding maze began to collapse rapidly, and a huge pit appeared on the ground. I wondered if the whole mountain was split in two by me, but in order to prevent ourselves from falling into the pit, I quickly let go of the dragon horn and hid away from Sanfu. Sanfu squatted down, and I helped Yunwen climb up.

Then Sanfu took advantage of the continuous collapse of the surrounding maze and immediately carried us all the way forward, jumping back and forth, dodging left and right, avoiding the collapsing objects, crossing the cracks in the ground, and jumping over the continuously collapsing earth and stone walls that were already within reach, running all the way forward.

There was a loud buzzing sound from the back, and at the part where I had just hit the ground, I accidentally glanced back and saw a shockingly huge ginseng-like purple-bearded root crawling out of the crack in the ground. It climbed high, as high as a ten-story building, with a lot of purple liquid bursting out of its body. The purple beard was swinging in chaos, and it made a shrill cry like a baby, but louder, and it felt like it would pierce the eardrum.

"Is it the root of heaven and earth?" I couldn't help but exclaim.

Yunwen hummed, and then said: "Now it is completely enraged, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to escape."

This is the truth. As soon as it stood up from the ground, countless tree roots similar to it sprang up from the ground. Each tree was connected to another, but their bodies were much smaller. They all waved their purple rootlets, but the rootlets did not seem to want to hit us. They just swayed like that. I really didn't know what they were doing. It was like they were having hysterics.

Sanfu ran around like this, but there was no way to go down the mountain. The only way was to continue running deeper into the mountain. At this time, I heard countless creaking sounds, and there were also fast-running creatures coming towards us. Judging from the sounds, there seemed to be quite a few!

I looked back out of curiosity, and what I saw was so shocking that I almost fell off my horse!

I saw countless cavalrymen rushing towards us, but they were not normal cavalrymen, they were all white bones. Both the riders and the horses were made up of a pile of rotten bones. I don't know how, but countless skeleton cavalrymen were charging towards us, which was extremely weird and terrifying.

"It's the sticky substance in their roots. The sticky substance is extremely sticky and can form silk threads. Using their whiskers as a control, human and animal bones can be manipulated to move around, and the dead can be moved along with them, killing people and things at will, just like they were when they were alive." Yunwen said in a panicked tone.

Sure enough, there were not only skeleton cavalry, but also a lot of skeleton beasts, skeleton birds of prey and so on. If the dragon horse had not run fast, it would probably have been trapped in this desperate situation and unable to extricate itself. If it was not scared to death, it would probably be surrounded by enemies, or killed and eaten alive. The result would definitely not be good.

"Stop playing puppet shows for no reason. Do these idiots have anything to do?" I shouted.

Fortunately, it was in good shape during the dog days, and it rode very fast all the way, getting farther and farther away from those unlucky things. After escaping from the broken and collapsed stone wall obstacles, it reached a relatively flat place and ran even faster. With the blessing of Long Po Lin, its lungs could already withstand greater power, and its long legs and feet were much better than those skeletons behind it. Therefore, when it arrived at this place, it was like a fish in water, and it sprinted forward as if it was taking off!

Finally, those strange noises stopped, and we were getting farther and farther away from it, until we ran to a narrow road. We had run for half an hour before the dog days, and just now we had a full sprint. This iron body needed some rest. We felt sorry for it, so we let it rest nearby. Occasionally we heard the sound of a spring, and our mouths were dry, so we followed the sound.

The long and narrow mountain path could only accommodate one person, and the width of the Sanfu Road was barely enough for people to pass through. We rushed all the way and indeed saw an area where a spring flowed. The mountains were rocky and water was flowing out from the cracks in the rocks. Yunwen and I were thirsty and were about to take a sip of water, but when we took the water, we immediately took it back in response. The water was slightly warm and hot, not ordinary water. What's strange is that it was hot but not steamy, just like ordinary clear water.

"What strange water." I muttered, but I saw that Sanfu was drinking it normally, which showed that he really had an extraordinary physique.

Fortunately, I brought a military water bottle. I collected the water and let it cool down. However, it didn't cool down for a long time, as if it was not controlled by the surrounding environment at all.

At this time, Yunwen pointed to a doorway opposite the narrow passage, which was also made of diamond. There was nothing written on the doorway, but there was a line of words written on the diamond. The words looked particularly familiar. Yunwen also took out the piece of paper I gave her, the paper on which I recorded the words left on the Golden Que Sword.

At first glance, the golden characters on the cave gate are exactly the same as those on the blueprint, without any difference!
