Chapter 1074

Su Yu walked out of this secret chamber, only to discover that there were no longer any paths to continue forward here.

Subsequently, Su Yu turned back into the secret chamber. Now, he was no longer afraid that any traps would appear; after all, if he failed to find anything here, that would be the greatest harm to himself.

Regrettably, Su Yu searched the entire secret chamber but made no new discoveries, so he had to leave the place with low spirits.

At which step did the problem arise? Why couldn't he find the things inside here? And what was going on with that Three-Legged Golden Crow?

Thinking of this, Su Yu suddenly remembered the old man he had just met; perhaps he would know something.

Thinking of this, Su Yu quickened his pace and walked outside.

When Su Yu went outside, he saw that Great Peng circling in the sky above him.

The Great Peng also clearly saw him and let out a fierce cry toward him. Seeing this, Su Yu knew well that it was best to conserve his strength at this moment; otherwise, he feared he would not be able to leave the Ancient Civilization of Baiyi intact.

Thinking of this, Su Yu had no choice but to retreat back inside once again.

"Su Yu, it has a very high sensitivity to its surroundings; even from high in the sky, it can capture its prey at a single glance."

These words from Gale Thunder made Su Yu think once again about how high the possibility was of him leaving here right under its nose.

"The Saintess Beast and the Monster Beast have already exhausted too much energy facing it, and I have also used Magic Cards two or three times in a row, which consumes even more of my mental energy. If I were to force their use again this time, I fear I would suffer a backlash."

Su Yu's current worry was not without reason. If things continued like this, he didn't even know if he would be able to leave here in one piece, let alone leave the Ancient Civilization of Baiyi.

"So, Su Yu, what are you thinking right now?"

Diluoluo's question made Su Yu firm up an idea.

Su Yu looked at the Great Peng still soaring in the blue sky outside, a fierce determination erupting in his eyes.

"It seems I can only rely on my own physical strength now! The Great Peng has a strong desire to protect the area close to itself; it won't care about anything else. As long as I move out of the area it needs to protect, it will be fine."

"Then, where is the area it doesn't need to protect?"

"It's probably within seventy steps of here. I measured it when I was about to engage it in battle. Now, it just depends on whether its speed diving down is faster or if I am faster."

Su Yu looked at the sky outside; it was gray and gloomy, as if it were about to rain. Thinking of this, Su Yu took out that Lightning-attribute Magic Card and gripped it in his hand, intending for this Magic Card to be his only lifeline if he were truly slower than it.

With a "Boom—", Su Yu walked out. At this moment, the Great Peng also saw him and flew toward him rapidly. At this same time, Su Yu began to run at top speed, keeping his attention on its flight speed at every moment.

Su Yu saw that he had not yet reached his destination, but the Great Peng was already not far from him.

Su Yu threw that Magic Card toward the Great Peng.

Immediately, four purple-gold snakes struck the Great Peng's wings in unison, and at this moment, lightning from the sky also struck its body.

However, in the Great Peng's view, these attacks could not slow down its assault; at most, they could only make its speed slower.

But slowing down its speed was exactly what Su Yu wanted. By the time the Great Peng flew down, Su Yu had already arrived at the safe zone and was watching the Great Peng.

Su Yu watched as the Great Peng licked its own wings, then flew back into the sky once again. Not only that, it also reverted to the appearance of an eagle.

Su Yu took out the ring he had found in the secret chamber, rubbed it a few times, then put it into his pocket and walked toward the place where the old man was at the foot of the mountain.

"How did it go, little friend?" Just as Su Yu walked not far behind the old man, he saw the old man sitting cross-legged.

Before Su Yu could make a sound, he heard him say this.

"I don't feel very good." Su Yu's honest answer actually surprised him a little.

"Ah? Oh, hahaha, not very good—this refers to you not finding anything that could be of help to yourself."
