"Oh! You're such a silver tongue! Even if I were to go back ten thousand years, I wouldn't believe your lies!"
Meng Wan smiled shyly in her heart, followed Cui Yucheng out of the fork in the road, and stepped into a natural stone chamber.
But when they arrived, the fight was over, leaving only a mess and blood on the ground.
Cui Yucheng felt depressed when he saw this.
“Brother Shen, we have to speed up, otherwise if we continue to be so slow, we won’t get any benefits.”
"Brother Cui is right."
Meng Wan nodded, quickened her pace, and followed Cui Yucheng to the next fork in the road.
“Brother Shen, how are we going this time?”
At the same time, Meng Wan was also asking the mysterious voice in her mind.
"Senior, which side do you choose this time?"
"Since you like challenges, choose the left path!"
"OK."
Meng Wan obediently chose the road on the left, "Brother Cui, I think this road should be safe."
The owner of the voice was so angry that he exploded again, "Ah!"
Meng Wan was puzzled. "Senior, what's wrong? Didn't I follow your instructions and choose the left path?"
"Nothing, I just can't wait to pass on the inheritance to you."
The voice said through gritted teeth.
Meng Wan was very grateful, "Then I would like to thank you first."
After passing a new fork in the road, Meng Wan and Cui Yucheng followed the sound of fighting into a new stone chamber, where they saw three or four foundation-building cultivators fighting over an ancient book.
Seeing Cui Yucheng and Shen Yi come in, several people couldn't help but feel nervous and sped up their attacks.
Cui Yucheng had sharp eyes and could tell at a glance that the ancient book was extraordinary, and his heart suddenly became excited.
He secretly sent a message to Shen Yi, "Brother Shen, this ancient book looks very impressive. Should we fight for it?
If we get it, we can comprehend it together!"
Meng Wan, however, looked uninterested and replied via voice transmission.
"I'm not interested in this ancient book. If Brother Cui wants it, just snatch it away."
Cui Yucheng gritted his teeth and joined the fight.
The people who were fighting were originally a little worried about the two new people who appeared, but when they saw that Shen Yi had no intention of joining the battle, they immediately felt relieved.
Meng Wan stepped back a little, to show that she had no interest in the ancient books, and quietly observed the fight between these monks.
Compared with Qi-refining cultivators, the strength of Foundation-building cultivators is incomparable. Their methods of defending against and killing enemies are also varied, and various spiritual weapons and spells emerge in an endless stream.
After a fierce fight, a masked female cultivator finally snatched the ancient book and escaped from another entrance of the stone chamber.
Cui Yucheng failed to snatch the ancient book and couldn't help feeling disappointed. There was a hint of resentment in his eyes when he looked at Chen Yi.
“Brother Shen, if you and I join forces, we have at least a 70% chance of getting that ancient book!”
Meng Wan seemed not to hear Cui Yucheng's complaint at all, and laughed.
"Brother Cui, don't be impatient. We have only been here for a short time and we have come across such a good thing. If we continue to go inside, there will definitely be more good things."
Cui Yucheng calmed down and nodded.
"That's true. In the caves of ancient cultivators, there must be more than one ancient book like this. There's no need to waste too much energy here."
The two men left the stone chamber and continued forward. After passing through several empty stone chambers, they came to a new fork in the road.
"Senior, which path do you choose this time?"
However, this time, no matter how Meng Wan asked, the voice in her mind never sounded.
Meng Wan sighed in her heart and had no choice but to choose the one on the right.
As a result, as soon as the two stepped into the fork in the road, they triggered the mechanism, and countless hard flying arrows came from all directions and shot straight at the two of them.
"not good!"
Cui Yucheng's expression changed slightly, and he quickly mobilized the spiritual energy in his body and activated his defensive spiritual weapon to resist these flying arrows.
Meng Wan drew out the magic sword hanging at her waist and wielded it with impenetrable force to block the approaching arrows.
The arrow attack had not yet ended, and the runes on the stone wall lit up one by one, and the entire branch road suddenly shook.
"Oh no! This fork in the road is going to collapse."
Cui Yucheng's expression changed slightly, "Brother Shen, don't worry about these flying arrows, we must rush out as soon as possible!"
Meng Wan understood and rushed forward behind Cui Yucheng.
The two of them used their own methods and hurried all the way, and finally escaped from the fork in the road before the passage collapsed completely.
"Phew! That was a close call!"
Cui Yucheng wiped the sweat from his face, still feeling a little scared. If he had been slower, the two of them would have almost been unable to get out.
"I originally thought that this ancient demon cultivator's lair was just like this. It seems that we were lucky the previous two times and chose the right fork in the road."
Cui Yucheng said with fear.
Meng Wan nodded, also with a look of fear on her face, and frantically greeted the owner of the mysterious voice in her heart.
"Senior, why didn't you show me the way just now? The successor you waited for with so much difficulty almost died just now!"
The voice sneered, with a hint of gloating.
"Since you want to be my successor, you must be able to withstand the test. If you can't even deal with this little trick, there's no need to come to see me."
The voice originally thought that Meng Wan would be angry, but she heard her tone of sudden realization.
"Senior, you are absolutely right. Don't worry, as the successor you have chosen, I will do my best to come before you."
"Haha, let's talk about it when you come."
After a short rest, Meng Wan and Cui Yucheng continued to go deeper.
Finally, the two came to a huge cave, and a huge bronze door blocked their way.
The huge gate was carved with ferocious patterns, emitting a suffocating pressure.
There were already five or six monks in the cave, but their condition was not good. Not only were they weak, but some of them also had injuries on their bodies.
Seeing Shen Yi and Cui Yucheng arrive, everyone looked at them with slightly hostile eyes.
"Two more have arrived. If we wait any longer, there will only be more and more people!"
Some people were extremely anxious and tried to use external force to break open the huge bronze door.
However, the force that was enough to penetrate the body of a foundation-building cultivator fell on the huge bronze gate, but only caused the gate to tremble slightly.
Immediately afterwards, several more people tried to break the door, but unsurprisingly, they all failed.
Seeing this, Cui Yucheng, who was originally eager to try it, immediately gave up the idea.
Among the cultivators who broke through the door, several were well-known masters in the middle stage of foundation building.
Even they were powerless, so as a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, he had no chance of breaking through this door.
Meng Wan saw everyone's reaction and asked the mysterious voice in her heart.
"Senior, I have arrived in front of a huge bronze door. Are you trapped inside?
Don't worry, I'll be able to rescue you soon."
"Save? I need your help?"
The voice seemed very disdainful, "You'd better find a way to save your own life first."
