Chapter 317
…
Long after the shadow disappeared, Ou Lingruo, who had been holding his breath, gasped a few times and asked in fear, "What was that?"
Cheng Hui looked at Ou Lingruo meaningfully. Generally speaking, the strength of a monster is often proportional to its size. Just look at the fish-like and dragon-like creature just now. Its aura is so strong that it might be comparable to that of a god-transforming cultivator.
"You are lucky." Lin Qingyang said to Ou Lingruo.
Ou Lingruo's heart skipped a beat. She didn't want Lin Qingyang to think that she was secretly doing something bad. You know, she really didn't know where this thing came from.
If she knew, she wouldn't dare to show up here even if she had the courage.
"No... I really don't know what this thing is."
With her woman's intuition, Ou Lingruo felt early on that Lin Qingyang was not a good person, and was afraid that she would bear a grudge against her.
If she couldn't explain this matter clearly, and the other party secretly attacked her, she would be finished...
Even the Ghost Lord fell into the hands of the two of them, she didn't think she had a chance of escaping.
"Don't be nervous." Cheng Hui comforted him, "I guess you don't know either. If you had encountered it last time, we probably wouldn't have had the chance to meet."
Ou Lingruo secretly glanced at Lin Qingyang, but the other party's expression did not change. She was still a little worried, but... since Senior Cheng had spoken, Senior Lin should not care, right?
She suppressed her emotions and decided to behave better later.
"Shall we... continue?" she asked hesitantly.
Knowing that a giant beast might live there, Ou Lingruo couldn't help but want to back out, but she also knew that it was not up to her to decide.
Lin Qingyang looked at Cheng Hui, who pondered for a moment, "Let's take a look first. Although that thing is large, its senses aren't very sensitive. With the magic circle in place, it shouldn't be able to detect us."
These words made Ou Lingruo feel a lot more at ease. The perception of monsters was indeed much worse than that of cultivators. If they could be discovered in advance, setting up a formation to hide like this would indeed be a method.
Having made their decision, the three of them quickly swam forward along the passage. However, this time, they carefully controlled the fluctuations of their spiritual power.
The monsters may not be sensitive to the fluctuations in spiritual power, but this may not be the case. Therefore, for safety reasons, the smaller the fluctuations in spiritual power, the better.
Ou Lingruo led the way in fear, fearing that he would accidentally run into the companions of the giant beast.
Cheng Hui wanted to tell her that his spiritual sense was always monitoring the front, but then he thought it would be better to let her be alert so that she would not be unable to react in time if she encountered danger.
Fortunately, they were lucky and walked through the entire waterway without encountering such a huge monster.
The moment Ou Lingruo left the waterway and stepped onto the ground, she finally let out the breath she had been holding. She sat down on the ground in a very ungraceful manner.
Well, in front of others, she still has to maintain her fairy-like image, but these two? Forget it...they don't even care about her!
Although there were three of them walking together, she always felt that she was the superfluous one, and Senior Lin would roll his eyes at her from time to time, as if he thought she was an eyesore.
Ou Lingruo: ...I feel wronged, but I dare not say it...╥﹏╥...
"Let's go, let's get out of here quickly... Who knows if that thing will come back?" Cheng Hui reminded.
"Yes, yes, let's go quickly. This way." Ou Lingruo jumped up with a start, carefully identified the direction, and walked towards a passage.
Cheng Hui observed the surroundings from time to time. The passage was spacious and the rock wall was smooth, but there were no signs of human excavation.
He had a bad feeling in his heart and couldn't help but remind Ou Lingruo to move faster.
Ou Lingruo felt anxious because of his urging, so she simply flew up on her sword.
Anyway, the passage here is spacious enough, and even if you fly with a sword, there won't be much danger as long as the speed is not too fast.
Ou Lingruo stepped onto the flying sword and turned back inadvertently, and was almost blinded again.
ah!
Senior Cheng actually stepped directly on Senior Lin’s sword... and hugged his waist!
Oh my god, such an intimate scene, is this something I can watch?
Ou Lingruo felt his heart beating faster for unknown reasons, and quickly covered his eyes, but couldn't help but peek through his fingers.
I have to admit that the two people in front of me, one handsome and the other beautiful, are very well matched standing together, especially the harmonious atmosphere between the two of them. It feels like anyone else would seem redundant.
Tsk tsk… Ou Lingruo sighed inwardly, who could have thought? Clearly, these two men were both high-quality men, and if they were released, they would surely attract countless young girls. Yet, after close contact, not only was she not tempted, but she actually felt that they were a perfect match… No, was there something wrong with her brain?
Ou Lingruo fell into deep thought until Lin Qingyang glared at her impatiently. Then she suddenly realized that it wasn't her problem, but that these two had never given any girl a chance from the beginning.
She still remembered that she had originally thought Senior Lin was very handsome and had a good impression of him, but why did she give up on that idea? Wasn't it because of his cold attitude?
Girls always prefer gentle personalities. Even if they are attracted by the cold and rude man who doesn't treat them as women at first, they will not be able to indulge in him forever and will soon come to their senses.
"What are you daydreaming about? Lead the way quickly." Lin Qingyang looked at Ou Lingruo as if she were a fool. What's wrong with this woman? How can she not even do such a simple thing?
Ou Lingruo's mouth twitched, huh... With that mouth of yours, you'll never be able to please any woman in your life!
Oh yes, her partner is a man, so that's fine...
Ou Lingruo was speechless as she thought, come to think of it... Senior Lin and Senior Cheng were really gentle when they spoke to each other, completely different from how they treated outsiders.
She silently wiped away a bitter tear for herself, as she was the unlucky comparison group.
Urged by Lin Qingyang, Ou Lingruo's flying speed on the sword increased by three times.
In order to avoid being chased by the seriously injured monster, she did not go too deep, so after flying for a while, she soon saw the exit.
There is a small platform at the exit. Standing on the platform, you can see that the cave in front of you is quite tall. There is a big hole on the top. Sunlight shines in from the hole, illuminating the entire cave.
Below is a lake with a large number of green ferns growing on both sides of the lakeshore. The surrounding cave entrances are interconnected and very spacious, like an underground world.
"Wow!" Cheng Hui sighed halfheartedly.
"Right there..." Ou Lingruo pointed to a large rock on the shore of Bu Lake. The rock was shaped like a millstone and was more than ten meters high. There was a black crack on the rock.
"Yes, it's a space crack." Lin Qingyang observed for a while and gave a positive answer.
Ou Lingruo was finally relieved. Since the other party admitted that this was a space crack, it meant that the deal was over and she would not have to take such a huge risk to come here again.
"Should we go then?"
Ou Lingruo thought that since she had seen the location, it was enough. She didn’t care what Cheng Hui and the others wanted to do. She just wanted to return to her safe home as soon as possible.
"No, I want to go down and take a look." Cheng Hui suddenly said.
Lin Qingyang glanced at him, and Cheng Hui winked at him, so he said, "Well, we need to check where this space crack leads to."
"Ah? Do we still want to go down and take a look?" Ou Lingruo hesitated. She really didn't want to stay in this place for even a minute. She always felt that if she stayed any longer, there might be greater danger.
However, her opinion was not important. Fortunately, Cheng Hui did not ask her to go down with him. Ou Lingruo simply stayed there and was responsible for keeping watch for them. If any enemy approached, she could also give them a heads-up in advance.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang rode their flying swords to the stone, and Lin Qingyang looked at Cheng Hui with a questioning look.
Cheng Hui glanced at Ou Lingruo in the distance and said in a low voice, "The boss hinted that I should take a closer look."
Lin Qingyang nodded, and the two began to observe the crack from various angles.
Compared to the crack seen in the Forbidden Magic Battlefield before, this crack seemed very unstable. The edge of the crack flickered, as if it was in a process of constant birth and death.
Cheng Hui flipped his wrist, and the sandbox prepared for the boss came into play again.
The words made of sand told Cheng Hui that the boss would need at least a year of recuperation before he could safely open the crack. The crack was already on the verge of collapse and might disappear in less than half a year.
"What should we do then?" Lin Qingyang frowned slightly. From the fact that it took him such a long time to find a space crack, it can be seen how rare this thing is.
If this one doesn't work, I don't know when I can wait for the next one.
Fortunately, the boss was very reliable. He said that although the crack was about to collapse, it had not collapsed yet. If Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang worked together, they might have a chance to tear the crack bigger and last longer.
"Attack? That's not a problem." Cheng Hui said, touching his chin.
"I'll go first." Lin Qingyang gestured to Cheng Hui to step back, drew out his sword, and used his most powerful move.
With a loud bang, the crack was not damaged, but the huge rock below exploded.
The huge sound echoed throughout the cave, making Ou Lingruo's eyes go black.
She quickly flew down on her sword and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened?"
Lin Qingyang ignored her and stepped forward to check the results of his move.
Cheng Hui kindly explained to her that the space crack was about to disappear, and they had to find a way to ensure that the space crack could continue, otherwise they would not be able to use it.
Ou Lingruo nodded, not quite understanding. She didn't know much about space cracks, but she knew that it was a passage leading to the void.
Without sufficient cultivation and coordination with the formation, trying to rush in with your physical body is simply seeking death.
She knew that Lin Qingyang and the others must have a method to use with the spatial rift, but so what? This kind of formation was not cheap. The Ou family had only so much money. Even the most precious treasure land had been given to Cheng Hui and the others to comprehend. What else could they offer in exchange?
When Ou Lingruo thought of this, he no longer had any extra thoughts.
Forget it. If she wants to travel freely in the endless void, she must at least reach the Nascent Soul stage. Once she reaches that stage, it will be too late to consider the problem of the space crack.
Ou Lingruo thought lightly that she felt that being with these two seniors had changed her views on many things.
Perhaps she felt that no matter how powerful she was, she couldn't possibly defeat a Nascent Soul cultivator while still in the Golden Core stage. With these two abnormal examples before her, she thought she was just an ordinary cultivator, and that she could take things slow and not be so impatient...
