Chapter 627

"But because there were so many monsters, even the Millelith fighting to the death was of no avail. Finally, they discovered an aura deep underground that suppressed the Abyssal monsters, so they sent a group of people to fight and lure them, and used a treasure to seal the monsters here. I suppose that must be the Divine Fatui that Yanfei is looking for."

Hearing this, everyone suddenly understood.

Judging by Miss Yelan's expression, her ancestor Boyang was probably among that group of people who knew they were going to die.

"You suspect those monsters are the ones left over from back then?" Kuki Shinobu suddenly interjected.

"That's right. Everyone might have noticed that we can't feel hunger or thirst in this strange space. It seems that time is stagnant, including our physical state, forever kept at a certain moment."

Miss Yelan observed for a long time before finally stating her guess: "After entering the Divine Fatui, if there is no external force to change it, one will exist forever at one moment. Unless attacked by an external force like the Conqueror of Demons, otherwise..."

Yanfei keenly continued: "It will never change!"

If one were to speculate according to what Miss Yelan said, it wouldn't be impossible for the monsters to have survived for five hundred years.

But this didn't quite match what Xiao described earlier; those monsters were all phantom-like existences that reappeared after dying.

Moreover, this place located underground, whether it was an ancient civilization or some special place, could significantly weaken the power of the Abyss. Staying here for a long time would obviously lead to assimilation and annihilation.

So it was more likely that the monster group had all died, and it was unknown why they became phantoms enslaved by the Divine Fatui.

Everyone talked at once, slowly guessing a result that was acceptable.

Luo Li listened silently for a long time and finally affirmed their thoughts, but...

"Even if you know, it's useless. Instead of worrying about these, it's better to consider how to get out of here."

One word awakened the dreamer.

The group then remembered that without him, they would all be trapped here to death.

If they wanted to continue exploring, breaking through the cave was a must.

"The puzzles here must have something to do with those doors, right?!" Arataki Itto's brain worked well for once, and he pointed at the doors and asked.

"Although I really want to despise you, I agree with your guess this time."

Paimon crossed her arms and glanced at him sideways.

She hadn't forgiven this "cow-herder" for the argument earlier; she had to maintain her persona and stance.

Unless this guy apologized to her, Paimon was determined to ignore him for a long time.

"Let's go in and see."

Compared to the hesitant group, Luo Li was much more free and bold, heading straight for the first door.

What is called being bold because of high skill? Knowing that this place couldn't bring him danger, he just had to charge through; thinking too much was useless.

The first stone door opened directly as he approached, revealing the chaotic scene inside.

The group looked at each other and found that Luo Li was already prepared to step inside, so they hurriedly followed, afraid of falling behind.

Inside the door!

When Luo Li stepped inside, the originally chaotic scene suddenly changed.

An ancient battlefield slowly appeared before their eyes, with dense monsters emerging from afar, surging like a tide.

This scene made everyone except Luo Li's scalp tingle.

The black "tide" was enough to swallow everything.

But the next moment, the group's perspective changed.

A bright yellow figure replaced their perspective; he was wearing clothes somewhat similar to the Geo Archon, and his figure was tall.

Luo Li recognized his identity at a glance, while Xiao gasped out the name with a changing expression.

"That is... Menogias?!"

That's right, that figure was one of the five great Yakshas who were also part of the Yaksha group, the General of the Heart Ape who controlled the Geo element—Menogias!
