Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Seeing Yu Changsheng's actions, Chen Xueqing immediately understood, "You think the hole above was the key to breaking this illusion array?"

Yu Changsheng stopped what he was doing and looked around the area again.

"In short, no matter how you attack, you can't break the illusion array from either of the two walls."

"We entered from the entrance above, so perhaps the key to breaking the illusion lies there."

Chen Xueqing, however, questioned, "But most of those who enter this illusion array should have entered through the entrance above."

"If the solution is really placed at the top, wouldn't it be too easy for someone to figure it out?"

"If I were the one who set up this illusion array, I certainly wouldn't have placed the method to break it above the array."

Yu Changsheng slowly lowered his head. "If it's not above, then is it below?"

Yu Changsheng suddenly threw a punch, slamming it into the ground.

With this punch, he used the first punch of the Unbridled Demon-Slaying Fist, which could absorb the magic power in the vicinity.

In an instant, the ground began to shake again.

However, unlike before, this time Yu Changsheng used his magic power, but the ground did not show any illusory reaction.

In other words, he actually crashed into the ground, not into a phantom.

"There's hope!"

Yu Changsheng's expression immediately changed, and he attacked again.

The Five Extremes Demon-Slaying Fist was also unleashed at its maximum power, slamming a punch into the ground.

The ground trembled continuously, like waves on the sea. Seeing that there was another reaction, Yu Changsheng continued to launch attacks.

And in different places, the ground shook more and more violently, and soon huge cracks appeared.

Seeing the opening appear, Chen Xueqing seized the opportunity and attacked the opening directly.

Countless ice crystals shot into it instantly, and then it exploded.

Immediately, crimson blood began to seep from the ground, staining the entire surface red.

A large amount of blood gushed out from the crevice, and Yu Changsheng and the other person quickly retreated upon seeing this.

Only after the blood stopped gushing from the crack did Yu Changsheng step forward to check.

The crack had now created a huge hole, leading straight down.

Yu Changsheng was overjoyed; it seemed he had finally found the exit from this illusion.

"I'll go down and check first. Once I'm sure everything's alright, you can come down, just in case we're still inside the illusion array."

After giving a few instructions, Yu Changsheng jumped down through the gap.

They then arrived at a dark cave entrance.

Blood was still flowing from the gap above, and Yu Changsheng gasped in shock when he saw it.

The ground was covered with many stones and fleshy spheres, just like the fleshy spheres in the stones that Yu Changsheng had seen outside before.

"Could it be that the corridor we saw before was entirely composed of those fleshy spheres within the rocks? What exactly is this place?"

The more Yu Changsheng thought about it, the more alarmed he became.

He called out to someone above, signaling Chen Xueqing to come down as well.

Chen Xueqing was startled when she saw the pieces of meat and stones on the ground. "Is this the spot I broke earlier?"

"That must be it. It seems we might have been trapped inside one of these things before."

Yu Changsheng pointed in one of the directions and said, "Let's go take a look over there."

It was pitch black here, and it was difficult to tell which way to go. We could only move forward by feeling.

Following the slope inside the cave entrance, the two easily reached the bottom of the cave.

And here, a gigantic blood gate stands.

The door had been opened a crack, and it looked like someone had already gone in.

However, just to be on the safe side, Yu Changsheng still had the Rainbow Star Deer release a large number of vines to test the waters.

Countless vines scurried through the cracks in the blood-red door, writhing and turning inside.

After a while, there was still no reaction inside, so Yu Changsheng felt relieved and went in.

The interior space is very spacious, and many of the buildings are still very well preserved.

In the center of this vast palace stands a colossal throne.

The throne was incredibly tall, over three meters high, and looked like a monarch who did not belong to humankind.

What surprised Yu Changsheng even more was that in the center of the throne, a huge egg sat on the throne.

The spirit beast egg that can be found in such a dangerous ruin must be something extraordinary.

But since someone has been here, and the spirit beast egg hasn't been taken away, something must be fishy.

Yu Changsheng said:

"There should be other agencies here, so let's be careful."

Chen Xueqing nodded emphatically, her gaze also falling on the spirit beast egg.

"Presumably, once you get close to that throne, it will trigger some kind of mechanism, and you certainly can't reach that position by ordinary means."

Yu Changsheng naturally had a way. He immediately had the Rainbow Star Deer control the vines to retrieve the spirit beast egg.

With a cry, Cai Xinglu quickly cast a spell, and several thick vines immediately sprouted from the ground, rushing towards the throne like giant snakes.

Before long, they arrived in front of the throne, only a few feet away from the spirit beast egg.

However, just as the colorful star deer was about to take the spirit beast egg away...

Suddenly, the surrounding area was filled with colorful light.

Yu Changsheng and Chen Xueqing only felt a blur before their eyes, and then they instantly lost consciousness.

After a moment of floating, Yu Changsheng felt a splitting headache and his body was almost out of control.

With sheer willpower, Yu Changsheng tried his best to move a finger.

However, feeling as if a thousand-pound boulder was pressing down on him, after struggling for a moment, Yu Changsheng suddenly opened his eyes and found himself in another space.

This place is like a paradise, a fairyland.

Flowers, birds, fish, insects, small bridges, flowing water, and the fragrance of flowers carried by the wind—a scene of peace and harmony.

After searching the surroundings, Yu Changsheng didn't see anyone else, and Chen Xueqing had long since disappeared. Obviously, the two of them had been teleported to another place because of the light they had just seen.

"There must have been an array around the throne as well. Sigh, I didn't expect to fall into a trap."

Yu Changsheng gave a wry smile; it seemed his methods were still too naive.

"The art of formations is indeed my weakness!"

"It seems that if I manage to leave this place alive, I will need to study this skill more thoroughly, otherwise I will be powerless to fight back in these situations."

This was the first time Yu Changsheng had encountered such a powerless situation. Faced with one formation after another, he could only passively endure it, with no room for counterattack.

Looking around, thankfully there was no danger nearby.

But Yu Changsheng knew that the greatest danger was when there was no danger, especially in a place like this where there was definitely no safety.

After thinking it over, he decided to go up to a higher place to check out the surroundings, hoping he might run into Chen Xueqing.

He was certain that Chen Xueqing had also been teleported to this place, but the two had not yet met.

Upon reaching a mountaintop, Yu Changsheng gazed into the distance and saw only one rather conspicuous building in the area.

That's a tall tower not far away, seemingly located in the center of the forest where Yu Changsheng is.

Currently, there doesn't seem to be a good place to go, so we can only make the tower our target.

But when Yu Changsheng tried to fly there, he found that the rules of this place made flying impossible.

A powerful force immediately appeared on his body, pressing Yu Changsheng back to the ground.

Helpless, Yu Changsheng had no choice but to walk back.

There was no danger along the way. However, Yu Changsheng discovered that there were an extraordinary number of insects in this forest.

On the contrary, other creatures were almost nowhere to be seen, and there were not a single bird in the sky.

Naturally, due to the rules of this place, birds simply cannot get close.

This may explain why there are so many insects in this forest.

Suddenly, a poisoned needle shot towards Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng reacted quickly and was deflected by the sword, while the thing that attacked Yu Changsheng disappeared in a flash.

It is estimated that some kind of extremely fast insect targeted Yu Changsheng as its prey.

"This place is truly fraught with danger. I thought it would be relatively safe, but it seems I was wrong."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Yu Changsheng had no choice but to release the Xuan Turtle and use it as a mount.

The aura of a fourth-tier spirit beast can suppress various spirit beasts and insects in the surrounding area to a certain extent.

As for the Crimson Hell Dragon and Golden-Winged Roc that Yu Changsheng used to ride, they were obviously not suitable for this environment.

Upon hearing this, the black tortoise immediately froze on the spot.

Yu Changsheng asked, "Senior Xuan Turtle, what's wrong?"

The black tortoise had a dazed look in its eyes and would glance at its surroundings from time to time.

"I have a feeling that I am very familiar with this place."

Yu Changsheng was taken aback and quickly asked, "Could it be that Senior Xuan Gui has been here before?"

The black tortoise shook its head. "No, but this place seems to give me a very familiar feeling."

Yu Changsheng asked, "Could there be something here that Senior Xuan Turtle is very familiar with?"

Even the Black Tortoise couldn't be completely certain. "I only have a general feeling, that is, the direction, but I can't confirm anything more specific."

"Kid, come up here first, let's go take a look."

Upon closer inspection, Yu Changsheng realized that the direction the Xuan Turtle was pointing was the same as the direction of the tower.

Since it was the same destination as Yu Changsheng's, they jumped directly onto the back of the Xuan Turtle.

The black tortoise had shrunk to a certain size, just right for it to move through the forest.

Moreover, its speed was surprisingly fast. With the help of magic, the Xuan Turtle did not move step by step, but rather moved forward on the ground as if jumping.

Before long, Yu Changsheng was able to see a corner of the tower.

"Senior Xuan Turtle, we'll be there soon."

The closer Yu Changsheng got, the more he could feel the immense size of the tower.

I didn't really notice it from a distance, but now that I'm up close, I realize that this tower is probably at least a hundred meters tall.

Like a giant pillar supporting the sky, it is unknown who built it.

"This aura is becoming more and more familiar to me."

"The entity emanating this aura should be inside this tower."

Yu Changsheng also asked, "But how do we get into this tower?"

However, just as Yu Changsheng was still wondering, an attack suddenly came from all around.

The Xuan Turtle reacted quickly, immediately raising a water barrier to block the attack.

The other party did not continue its attack, and Yu Changsheng thought it was just another attack by insects in the forest.

Suddenly, two figures emerged from the forest. Judging from their clothing, they were likely members of the Dasheng clan.

"Who are you! State your name!"

The other party immediately began to question them.

Yu Changsheng didn't want to start a fight with the other party at the moment, and he might even be able to get some information from them.

He then revealed the identity token of the Dasheng clan that he had obtained earlier.

"I am also a member of the Dasheng clan."

One of the other party immediately stepped forward to check, and after confirming that everything was correct, nodded to the back.

"So they were one of us."

Seeing that Yu Changsheng's identity was not a problem, the group immediately relaxed and were no longer as tense as before.

"Why are you here all alone? Where are the others in your group? Did they all die here?"

Yu Changsheng said, "They all got separated when we came in."

"I see. Have you tried contacting them?" The man nodded in realization, then asked another question.

"I tried, but there seem to be special rules here, and I couldn't get in touch with them."

Seeing this, the man did not ask any further questions.

"Oh right, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Hu Ruhai, and these are all members of my team, so I won't introduce them one by one."

After Hu Ruhai finished speaking, he looked at Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng then introduced himself before asking the question that had been bothering him.

"Brother Hu, how did you get into this place?"

Hu Ruhai was taken aback and said, "Didn't you enter through the Great Sheng Clan's teleportation array? Didn't you come in this way?"

Yu Changsheng was also stunned for a moment before realizing that the Dasheng clan had probably entered this place long before him.

The gap in that main hall was probably opened by the Dasheng clan.

"I entered this place by accident. I don't know how to leave."

Hu Ruhai was also slightly surprised, feeling that Yu Changsheng was a complete novice who knew nothing, yet he was able to get here.

"Heh, you're really lucky to have survived all that you came here alive from outside."

"Never mind, getting out is easy. The clan will distribute a teleportation array when you come in."

"You can leave as long as you crush the rune array. Each team has one."

"But I guess you don't have that either. How about this, when we leave, you can come with us."

Yu Changsheng immediately beamed with joy and said, "Alright, thank you very much in that case."

Yu Changsheng thanked him and then glanced at the teleportation array in the man's hand.

It must be said that the Dasheng clan's use of talismans is truly masterful.

Even such an extremely complex teleportation array could be sealed within such a small talisman.

It can also be used at any time to teleport to another location.

This method is extremely valuable and practically a lifesaver when defending against enemies in the wild.

If you can't win, just crush the teleportation array and leave; it's practically like having an extra life.

However, Yu Changsheng also estimated that the manufacture of this teleportation array must be extremely complicated, and this teleportation array must be extremely precious.

At this moment, he was also thinking that if things went wrong, he would take the teleportation array from this person's hand.

For now, Yu Changsheng doesn't plan to do that; he'll observe the situation with the others first. (End of Chapter)
