A few minutes passed, then ten minutes passed...
The black shadow did not appear again, and Xiao Chen and the other two stopped.
"It never appeared again. Are we overthinking it?"
Xiao Chen frowned and looked around.
"Maybe."
Chi Feng nodded. If he really had targeted them, he wouldn't have disappeared for so long.
Unless this black shadow is an excellent hunter who has enough patience to wait for them to reveal their flaws and kill them with one blow.
However, this is also unlikely.
Before, Black Shadow had the opportunity to attack, but he didn't.
"Could it be that you are overthinking it and are too paranoid?"
Hua Youque asked.
"If it's not a hare, then it's a mouse or something like that?"
"Who knows? Let's continue looking for the spiritual roots of heaven and earth."
Xiao Chen shook his head, remained alert, and walked forward.
They came to Lingyun Cliff mainly to find the spiritual roots of heaven and earth. As long as they found them, they would withdraw.
After another ten minutes or so, the three stopped again, feeling like giving up.
"The bottom of this cliff is so huge, it seems like there's no end... We've been walking for almost half an hour, and we haven't reached the end yet."
Chi Feng said as he sat on a large rock.
"This is just the left side. We haven't visited the right side yet... The key is that we don't know what the spiritual roots of heaven and earth look like. Everything looks like a spiritual root, and nothing looks like a spiritual root. How can we find it?"
"Yeah, it makes my eyes dry and painful..."
Hua Youque also nodded.
"Brother Xiao, how about we give up? Anyway, you have dug up a large area of 'Heavenly Spiritual Roots', so it's not a loss. Why don't we go to another place? Don't waste your time in this damn place."
"Don't mention a whole lot to me..."
Xiao Chen was annoyed.
"Let's not talk about it. We are still good friends... Besides, if I mention it, will it make you proud?"
"No."
Hua Youque shook his head.
Xiao Chen took out the animal skin map, looked at it carefully, and quickly frowned: "No."
"What's wrong?"
Hua Youque and Chi Feng also came over.
"Look, this is Lingyun Cliff, it doesn't cover a lot of space."
Xiao Chen said seriously.
"But we've been walking for a long time, and it's still not over..."
When Chi Feng said this, his eyelids twitched.
"Illusion?"
"It may not be an illusion, it may be a formation..."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"But what we see is different. Can the formation have this effect?"
Hua Youque said in a deep voice.
"space?"
The three of them looked at each other, unable to hide their surprise.
Is there still space under this Lingyun Cliff?
Originally, Dragon City is a space, the secret realm is in Dragon City, and in the secret realm... there is space?
Is this a space doll?
Apart from space, they couldn't think of anything else for a moment.
Just like Hua Youque said, if it was a formation, it would be unlikely to allow people to see different things.
Illusion array... Xiao Chen felt that he should be able to distinguish it.
Of course, this is just their guess and may not be accurate.
A person's cognition is limited, and he can only guess within his own cognition...
“Why isn’t it marked on the map?”
Hua Youque asked.
"It's impossible to mark everything... Let's go back and see if we can get back."
Xiao Chen said this and turned around and walked back.
"If we can't go back, it will be troublesome... We will get lost in space, which is the most dangerous."
Chi Feng looked solemn.
"Maybe it's not that serious."
Xiao Chen shook his head. He still had the blood key… If it really didn’t work, he would try the blood key.
The three of them walked back and were shocked to find that... the scene had changed.
It was clearly the road I had just walked on, but it became extremely unfamiliar.
"It doesn't look like space. If it is space, it wouldn't be like this, right?"
"Illusion? But it's too real..."
Chi Feng and Hua Youque were surprised.
Swish!
Xiao Chen didn't say anything and took out the Xuanyuan Sword.
Although he did not feel a sense of crisis for the time being, it was obvious that something was wrong with the current situation... No matter what it was, they were all caught.
"I'll go up and take a look."
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he flew into the air and wanted to go to the top of the cliff.
They had come down from the top of the cliff before, so that place should be real.
But to his surprise, there was an invisible barrier blocking him.
He looked around and found that the vines that had been on the cliff were gone.
"Is this really an illusion?"
Xiao Chen frowned, slowly closed his eyes, and released his spiritual consciousness.
Although the range is limited, he is under the barrier and will be able to discover any abnormalities.
Soon, he sensed something.
"One force can break all methods... No matter how many methods you use, I can break them with one force."
Xiao Chen closed his eyes and muttered to himself.
The next second, he held the knife with both hands and slashed fiercely.
The dazzling golden light shines like a golden sun.
Click...
There seemed to be a sound of breaking, the stars moved, and the sky and the earth changed color.
When Xiao Chen landed, the scene in front of him had changed.
Although it was still at the bottom of the cliff, it was completely different from before.
"This... should be true."
Xiao Chen felt uneasy. Was this really an illusion?
The three of them were dragged into the illusion without knowing it?
If they hadn't suddenly realized something was wrong, and hadn't had a map, they would have kept going...
Until you are completely lost.
"Broken?"
Hua Youque grabbed a stone and crushed it with a snap.
"It's useless. If it is really an illusion, then everything seems real to us..."
Chifeng shook his head.
"Xiao Chen, are those colorful spiritual herbs you dug still there?"
"Why bring it up again... huh? What you mean is..."
Xiao Chen's mind flashed and he understood what Chi Feng meant.
“It’s still there. It’s real there.”
"What's fake is always fake. Since it's still there, it must be real. Let's go back."
Chifeng nodded.
“Once we get there, we’ll know for sure.”
"There's no need to go through so much trouble..."
As Xiao Chen spoke, he also picked up a stone, and whoosh, the stone disappeared out of thin air.
He entered the bone ring, looked at the stone, and took it out again.
"You can bring it into the bone ring. There is definitely no illusion there... So, this is already the real world."
"Um."
Chi Feng breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he could be sure that it was true.
Fortunately, it’s not another space. If I really got lost in it, that would be serious.
“It’s opening up new uses.”
Xiao Chen looked at the stone and bone ring in his hand. He had never thought of this before.
So, this trip was fruitful.
"Do you think our entry into that illusion might have something to do with the black shadow? Didn't the black shadow never appear again afterwards?"
Hua Youque thought of something and said.
"It's possible."
Xiao Chen nodded. Perhaps it was at that time that they were dragged into the illusion.
If that's the case, then the black shadow... is very scary.
It is silent and can make people enter a fantasy world.
Swish…
Just as they were guessing, a dark shadow flashed in the distance.
“It’s happened again.”
Before Xiao Chen finished speaking, he had already chased after him.
Chi Feng also wanted to chase after him, but he thought of something and held back.
"It's me who has implicated you."
Hua Youque looked at Chi Feng and said helplessly.
He knew that Chi Feng didn't chase him because he wanted to protect him.
"Haha, we are brothers, so there is no question of whether we will get involved or not."
Chi Feng smiled.
"Um……"
Hua Youque was stunned for a moment, then nodded, but swore in his heart that he must become stronger!
"I don't know if he can catch up."
"Come on, let's move forward too."
The two talked and walked forward.
About two or three minutes later, Xiao Chen came back with an unusual look on his face.
"Did you catch up?"
Chi Feng and Hua Youque saw his expression and asked hurriedly.
“I didn’t catch up, but I saw…”
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"What is it?"
Chifeng was curious.
"If I say it's a child, would you believe me?"
Xiao Chen looked at the two of them and spoke slowly.
"What? Kid?"
Hearing this, Hua Youque and Chi Feng widened their eyes, a little confused.
"Yes, a naked kid..."
Xiao Chen nodded.
“…”
Hua Youque and Chi Feng felt their brains were a little confused. How could a child suddenly appear at the bottom of this cliff?
"Boy or girl?"
Hua Youque asked subconsciously.
"How would I know? I didn't see the front, I just saw the back..."
Xiao Chen curled his lips. He was not surprised by the two people's reactions.
His reaction just now was similar.
When he saw clearly that it was a child, he paused... and it was with this pause that the child ran away.
If you see a kid somewhere else, it's nothing.
But the bottom of this cliff... is like the wilderness, how could there be children there?
It's too weird.
"Are you sure you saw it clearly?"
Hua Youque still found it a little hard to believe.
"Nonsense, I definitely saw it clearly, there is a head, arms and legs..."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"And it's not black... it's just moving too fast, so it looks like a black shadow."
"It can't be a child, right? Could it be a dwarf? Are there any dwarfs among the people who came in this time?"
Hua Youque thought for a moment and then spoke again.
He really couldn't accept that there was a child here.
"You mean, you entered the secret realm with us?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, he just happened to come to Lingyun Cliff as well."
Flowers have flawed heads.
"You can't be naked, either."
Xiao Chen rolled his eyes.
"Besides, if it's really like what you said, why did he run away when he saw us?"
"Well, didn't you say it yourself? I'm naked... shameless?"
Hua Youque also felt that this explanation didn't make sense.
"Could it be a spirit? Or a monster?"
Chifeng asked.
"No way, didn't they say that after that year, you can't become a spirit?"
Xiao Chen looked strange.
“…”
Chifeng was okay, he didn't understand what it meant, but Hua Youque was speechless.
The three of them stopped talking, each emitting their own thoughts... Too weird!
Suddenly, the three of them seemed to have thought of something, and they raised their heads abruptly and said in unison: "Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root?"
As they finished speaking, their eyes lit up. It's very possible!
Apart from this, they could not think of any other possibility.
"Isn't there a ginseng doll in the legend? Is this a spiritual root doll?"
Hua Youque said excitedly.
"What is born and raised by nature will surely have a vision..."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Like Sun Wukong, wasn't he born from heaven and earth?"
"Huh? Goku has no father or mother? He's not a human?"
Chi Feng was shocked.
"ah?"
After listening to Chi Feng's words, Xiao Chen and Hua Youque were stunned for a moment, then they reacted and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"We are talking about the Monkey King, not the drunkard Wukong..."
"Oh, that monkey."
Chi Feng suddenly realized.
