Chapter 394 Discussion
“That’s good.”
Dongfang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned and said, “No. If the sparrow takes control of this cave, you will inevitably be kicked out by him to avoid future troubles. Then what should we do?!”
“I won’t let him get the cave!”
Yan Ziye sneered, “The sparrow… set everyone up. If there were no accidents, he would invite us in just for helping him pass the six levels, right?”
“That’s right.”
Dongfang Wuxue recalled the content of the stone table 100 years ago, and nodded lightly, “The mandatory rule of the cave is that anyone who fails in two of the six levels will be regarded as garbage, and he will be killed if he continues to break through.”
“That explains it!”
Yan Ziye’s pupils constricted, “I stayed in the first level for a long time, but I hadn’t seen many people. It seemed that… they were almost dead.”
Old Lady Duhua remained silent, and sighed in her heart. If she hadn’t been seriously injured in the third level, she would have been killed instantly. Now, it seemed good to break through the third level.
Once Dongfang Wuxue closed his eyes, various situations in the cave appeared before him.
Shortly, he opened his eyes and said,
“When you came in, there were 81 people. Now, except for you, the sparrow and his servant, there are only four people left. Two of them are together, a woman and a boy in white with white hair. Another one is a tall and thin man with ordinary appearance. Since these three people are all in the boundless wilderness where is far away from the stone table, the sparrow can’t sense their position. So they survived.”
“Even fellow practitioner Wen is dead?”
Old Lady Duhua inevitably felt sad for the loss of those people. The elder Wen, Yuan and she were practitioners of the same era, although they did not get along well with each other. After their death, all practitioners of Yuanying Realm of her generation… were dead.
“No, Father, you clearly said that four people survived, but you only mentioned the whereabouts of the three. Who is… another one?”
Dongfang Yi couldn’t help but ask. Dongfang Wuxue looked at his son, with a meaningful smile, stood up and walked towards the hut.
“Follow me.”
Everyone immediately followed him. When they came into the hut, the light dimmed slightly, but they could still clearly see a girl about 14 or 15 years old lying on the bed.
“It’s her!”
Dongfang Yi recognized her instantly. He remembered clearly when Su Li came to ask him about Dongfang Wuxue at the camp.
“Isn’t this girl…”
Old Lady Duhua frowned. She knew exactly that Wang Yu would never spare the sacrifice a living.
“Spell practitioners indeed have something.”
Dongfang Wuxue said in a deep voice. Since then, what he said was a conspiracy with Su Li.
“At the sixth level, the woman in red broke the curb at the expense of two girls, which was against nature. I tried my best to save one, but the other turned into blood, and was hard to be cured. After losing one of the sacrifices, the woman turned into blood instead of that girl. Therefore, the curb was also broken.”
With this flawless explanation, Old Lady Duhua and Dongfang Yi believed and so did Yan Ziye, who was somewhat related to Wang Yu.
“Wang Yu really died. She died in such a ridiculous way. Spell practitioners really learn the trick harming others and themselves.”
He had wanted to learn some spells after controlling Wang Yu, but now… he had no such thought anymore.
“However, although I saved this girl…”
Dongfang Wuxue stretched out his hands helplessly, “I couldn’t wake her up.”
Old Lady Duhua nodded and said, “The spell is weird and unpredictable. Since you saw that the spell had already begun, it would inevitably have an impact on the girl, although Wang Yu had reaped what she sowed. It doesn’t matter for a practitioner who has a high level of cultivation. However, this little girl has just reached Lianqi Realm.”
Dongfang Wuxue couldn’t help but laugh in his heart, and nodded, “You are not alone in this thought. I can’t leave this place. If the girl stays here, she shall be dead in the end. Please take her away with you. No matter what happens, there will finally be a glimmer of hope.”
Dongfang Yi looked at the girl quietly sleeping on the bed and remembered the scene when he first met her at the camp. He kept silent for a moment, and directly carried Su Li on his back.
This move almost scared Dongfang Wuxue out of his wits.
When did his son become so courageous?!
He even dared to touch the body of the holy girl!
Did he want to die?!
He was overwhelmed by his awe to Su Li, rather than any other feelings. He didn’t even dare to think about any movements like body contact, but his son put it into practice.
Lying on Dongfang Yi’s back calmly, Su Li seemed to be asleep. Seeing this, Dongfang Wuxue was full of anxiety, but he did not dare to show any strange look. He immediately talked about the plan to change the situation,
“The sparrow is bound to win this cave. Now, the cave has already been closed, and I can’t open a hole to let you out. Therefore, the only way for you is to win the inheritance of the cave before the sparrow.”
As he said, he looked at Yan Ziye, “Brother Yan, this is related to the implementation of my plan. Please tell me the truth… Can you pass the fifth level?”
Yan Ziye narrowed his eyes slightly, and finally nodded.
Old Lady Duhua and Dongfang Yi were shocked, but Dongfang Wuxue laughed, “Sure enough! I know that with your qualifications, the pseudo holy method means nothing.”
“Haha… Brother Dongfang, don’t flatter me.”
Without much change of expression, Yan Ziye was just being polite. However, he couldn’t help but think of the practice method taught by “Ms. Li” in the illusion of reincarnation in his heart.
After returning to reality, he discovered that it was actually a complete low-level holy method, and the so-called “Ms. Li” and “Immortal Master” were only transformed by one person.
“Since Brother Yan is here, I have to change my way for greater certainty of success. So…”
Almost half a day later, Dongfang Wuxue waved his hand and a white portal leading to the dark cave appeared.
They bid a farewell to Dongfang Wuxue. Dongfang Yi walked reluctantly at the end, but when he thought that if they succeeded, he could be able to rescue his father, he finally made up his mind to step into the whirlpool to leave.
“Holy… Su Li, it’s all up to you…”
Dongfang Wuxue watched everyone disappear. When his eyes fell on Dongfang Yi’s back, he prayed in his heart.
Yan Ziye may be able to deal with the real test, but when it came to the end, it could only be up to Su Li… He had seen clearly in the fifth level.
Su Li didn’t even bother to pay attention to the cave. It only took her more than two days to master that pseudo holy method.
As the protagonist of the illusion of reincarnation, he knew that her prodigy must be above everyone.
But what he didn’t know was that even with Su Li’s original talent in the Reincarnation Mirror, she could not do that in such a dramatical way. Everything started with the Black Lotus Ring.
After Yan Ziye and the others came out from Dongfang Wuxue’s hut, they came into a long and black stone passage. According to what Dongfang Wuxue had said before, this road led to the real center of the cave, which was also the reason why the sparrow wanted to pass the six levels.
In the center, only those who had passed the fifth level could take the real successor test, but the others like Old Lady Duhau, could only follow Yan Ziye as a bystander.
“No one knows the criteria for passing the level, even the sparrow. It seems that I must exert all of my strength, but my injury…”
Yan Ziye frowned secretly, but he stretched his brows in an instant.
If the sparrow controlled the cave, he would end up either death or be a slave. He was too proud to become a slave to others, so… old wounds meant nothing to death.
Yan Ziye smiled and quickened his pace suddenly.
“The sparrow must have entered the center long ago, so we have to go faster!”
Old Lady Duhua and Dongfang Yi didn’t quite understand the change to Yan Ziye, but they also agreed with his words and rushed to the center as quickly as possible.
As they all concentrated on rushing around, no one noticed that Su Li quietly opened her eyes. Her pure and black eyes glanced at Yan Ziye, and then closed again.
Under such a rapid rush, they quickly came to the end of the black stone passage – a tall golden door.
The stone door that should have been tightly closed now had an extra gap for one person to pass.
Yan Ziye sneered at this, “Most of the runes on this door are left by the ancients. It is difficult for us to open, so we should also thank that old bastard for opening the door for us!”
“Exactly.”
Old Lady Duhua smiled secretly, and the three of them entered one after another and disappeared.
Soon afterwards, two figures also appeared in front of the door. One was tall and the other was short. They were Xuan Meiji and Snow Child.
“According to the mansion spirit, is here the real inheritance that the old bastard wants?”
Xuan Meiji smiled enchantingly, but her anger couldn’t stop flashing out. Anyone who was used by others would never feel comfortable in her heart, not to mention that they were not ordinary people, but… the cultivation talent of this generation!
Snow Child was indifferent, and he didn’t even move his eyebrows, but he walked extremely fast and entered the giant door without any hesitation.
Then, the practitioner surnamed Huang appeared and entered the giant door with a gloomy face. Although he was not strong enough, he had to stop Heaven Rover in order to survive.
In the small valley, Dongfang Wuxue poured himself a cup of tea made of panacea. However, he was just seeing without drinking, and his eyes seemed to be burning.
At this point, everyone was sent into the center according to the agreement between Su Li and him. He could not sense the situation in the center.
Next, only to wait!
…
“Boom!”
On both sides of the bright and rectangular stone passage, the spiritual stone lamps seemed to have been burning for tens of thousands of years without being extinguished. Soon after Yan Ziye and the others had left, they heard a boom coming along the deep stone passage.
“It sounds like a thunder?”
Dongfang Yi murmured, but Old Lady Duhua nodded and said, “Immortal Cang Lei has the word Lei (which means Thunder) in his name. The naming of cultivation in ancient times was not casual. Maybe the former master of the cave really had the power to control thunder.”
“Thunder is the nemesis of all evil spirits. Even if the sparrow walked in Heaven Rover, it would definitely be painful to suffer the thunder. The difficulty of the test will increase accordingly, so we will have more chances.”
Yan Ziye nodded secretly when he heard what Old Lady Duhua said.
In a moment, the rectangular stone passage came to an end, and a huge cave with light blue starburst appeared in front of everyone.
In the center of the cave, there was a giant altar larger than all they had seen outside. What’s on the altar was nothing but… a thunder!!
