Chapter 297

Boom!

Yan Sen shook away the rubble with a punch, his body covered in blood but still possessing a terrifying aura.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and touched his chest suspiciously.

Under his spiritual sense investigation, there was nothing, so he subconsciously looked at Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing and Lu Lu Yaoyao were still staying in that array, looking at the six-colored light pillar without turning their heads.

"An illusion—" he muttered to himself, then looked at Yan Yan Weiyi.

"Eighth Uncle—" Yan Sen called out and hurried over.

After Yan Yan Weiyi stood up, blood uncontrollably overflowed from the corners of his mouth.

He waved his hand, his hoarse voice filled with irrepressible excitement.

"It's fine; since it's an adventure, risks are to be expected. Fortunately, everything is worth it; we finally returned that spiritual seal to its initial state."

Yan Sen also became excited and said: "Yes, thanks to Eighth Uncle's sharp eyes! If it were anyone else, even if they spent a hundred years in front of this array, they would never discover that special spiritual seal hidden in the layers of folds."

Hearing this, Yan Yan Weiyi's tone carried a bit of self-satisfaction: "It is only because of familiarity; it is merely the experience of a lifetime immersed in the Dao of arrays."

"Then, next, it's time for these two little cubs to take the stage."

Yan Yan Weiyi turned his head abruptly, looking at Zhou Qing and Lu Lu Yaoyao with sinister, gloomy light.

At this moment, the two also tacitly remained silent, but their gazes followed every move of the Yan uncle and nephew like hawks.

Yan Sen hesitated: "This backlash is a bit serious; should we rest a bit before going in?"

"It's the same to rest inside."

Yan Yan Weiyi stared at the light pillar in front of him, a flash of anxiety in the depths of his eyes, "This six-colored array has been manifested for more than a month; I'm afraid that if we drag it out any longer, it will attract others."

Yan Sen deeply agreed.

Fortunately, this island was remote, and it was rare to see anyone passing by here, but for the sake of safety, he still had to check again.

After speaking, the aura around his body suddenly became cold and murderous, and his terrifying spiritual sense spread toward the surroundings of the island like an invisible giant net with the force of a landslide.

Soon, his eyes narrowed suddenly.

A few seemingly ordinary water droplets nearby actually contained a trace of spirituality.

"Not good!" Sensing this scene, the Qingluo Beast immediately dived into the seabed and fled at the fastest speed.

Yan Sen snorted coldly, instantly evaporating those water droplets, and then immediately locked onto the fleeing Demon Emperor.

Unfortunately, the other party was too fast and had long since disappeared.

"Forget it, not worth worrying about; right now, it's better to hurry in!" Yan Yan Weiyi stopped Yan Sen, who wanted to pursue.

Yan Sen then unwillingly withdrew his spiritual sense, looked at Zhou Qing, and removed the surrounding restraining array.

Cold light gleamed in his triangular eyes: "What are you waiting for? If you can't open it, you should know what awaits you!"

Zhou Qing nodded and deliberately raised his voice: "Lu Lu Shimei, same as before; we are going to break into that small passage next, you must help me with the cooling work."

Lu Lu Yaoyao nodded and said: "Don't worry, Zhou Shixiong, we already have the experience from last time; leave it to me this time."

The moment the two looked at each other, a trace of imperceptible tacit understanding flashed in their eyes.

Yan Sen frowned slightly, glanced at the old man's phantom in the lower right corner, and ultimately did not ask further.

Since Shen Shen Hanyi could bring these two, they must have some use in opening the array.

He waved his hand casually, signaling Zhou Qing to act.

In the eyes of a Soul Severance Realm expert, ants at the Divine Transformation and Soul Formation Realms, even if they played some small tricks, were nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing let out a sigh of relief; what he feared most was that the other party would use Lu Lu Yaoyao as a hostage to threaten them and separate them.

Or perhaps plant some mark in their bodies or make them eat poison to prevent any accidents.

Being underestimated like this saved a lot of trouble.

He and Lu Lu Yaoyao looked at each other, golden light erupted from their bodies, and they transformed into a Golden-Winged Great Peng that covered the sky and sun.

The young girl leaped lightly onto the Peng's back, an ice lotus a foot high condensing at her fingertips, ice crystals covering the golden feathers, looking at first glance like armor born of nature.

Seeing the Great Peng, Yan Yan Weiyi was a bit surprised; was this the method to break into the six-colored array?

But soon, his eyes were filled with greed.

"After we get in, to prevent the leakage of this mystical realm, kill them!" Yan Yan Weiyi ordered.

Yan Sen nodded, indicating he understood.

In fact, he thought the same.

At this moment, Zhou Qing breathed a long sigh of relief, looking at the kind-faced old Old Peng Wang, and prayed for a moment.

Then he took Lu Lu Yaoyao and rushed straight toward that transparent figure.

As soon as they made contact, that familiar feeling of stagnation came again, as if they had fallen into thick mud.

Last time, because Number Six was there to give him a boost, but this time, he could only rely on himself, and he didn't dare let those two infuse their spiritual power into his body.

But fortunately, they already had the experience from last time; Zhou Qing roared and constantly increased his strength.

And Lu Lu Yaoyao, lying on his back, looked at her father trying so hard, her eyes full of heartache.

All she could do now was infuse her own spiritual power into his body without reservation.

Although it was a drop in the bucket, she couldn't do nothing.

"Enter—"

Zhou Qing roared again, the spiritual power around his body circulating crazily, constantly struggling to break free from the stagnant force pulling at him.

And Yan Sen and Yan Yan Weiyi behind him were each holding spirit stones in their hands, absorbing and replenishing while watching quietly.

"Hold on tight!"

After Zhou Qing shouted to Lu Lu Yaoyao, he immediately replenished the spare spiritual power from the golden flower.

Following another sprint, they instantly closed the distance to the old Old Peng Wang.

Until the moment they touched, a vast and ancient power erupted with a bang.

Zhou Qing only felt his body being pulled by a powerful attraction, and he drilled into the ruins behind the old Old Peng Wang very smoothly.

Almost at the same time, a unique black passage was formed behind him because of his pioneering.

"They actually really got in!"

Seeing this scene, Yan Sen and Yan Yan Weiyi showed joy.

They couldn't care about anything else and hurriedly followed into the passage...

After the two landed, they noticed that what came into view were huge stone platforms floating in the air.

Each one was incomparably huge, but unfortunately, they were covered with various collapsed exotic buildings.

And Zhou Qing and Lu Lu Yaoyao had long since disappeared.

"The aura here... is so ancient!" Yan Yan Weiyi took a deep breath, his eyes full of amazement.

Then, without a word, he began to loot.

Yan Sen was equally excited, but also a bit regretful.

If he had known, he would have planted a tracking mark on Zhou Qing; after all, he was determined to get that "Di Huang Jing."

But now that Eighth Uncle had started looking for treasures, he couldn't be stupid enough to go find Zhou Qing and lose the watermelon while picking up sesame seeds.

"The monk can run, but the temple can't; the Taiqingmen is still sitting over there!"

Yan Sen stopped caring and flew to another floating stone platform in the distance to loot.

But just as he landed and hadn't even made a move, he suddenly felt a chill down his back.

In the dark, it felt as if he had been targeted by some terrifying creature.

This made him immediately take out his weapon to be on guard.

Roar—

The next moment, in those collapsed buildings, a pair of huge eyes suddenly opened.

Following that was a terrifying beast roar, which came out with endless majesty and deterrent power.

"It's you again; return my spirit medicine to me!"

After a violent earthquake, a huge ink-black giant turtle locked onto Yan Sen and roared in human language.

Then it opened its blood-red mouth and swallowed toward Yan Sen.

Yan Sen's expression changed drastically; not daring to linger in battle, he immediately rushed toward the stone platform where Yan Yan Weiyi was at the fastest speed.

"A Great Perfection Soul Severance Realm Green Fire Mysterious Turtle; why is my luck so bad? Eighth Uncle, Eighth Uncle—"

【Latest news: The victim of the post broke into the resting place of the Green Fire Mysterious Turtle; it mistakenly thought the other party was the one who stole its "Red Flame Golden-Veined Vine" and launched a pursuit in anger.】

【Because the strength gap between the two sides was too vast, the victim of the post couldn't dodge in time and took a claw, breaking half of his arm.】

In a collapsed ruin on another stone platform, two figures were restraining their aura with all their might, not moving at all.

At this time, a line of strange words similar to bullet comments suddenly floated before Zhou Qing's eyes.

Seeing this real-time report, information similar to the 【Bad Luck Post】, a satisfied smile appeared on Zhou Qing's face.

The 【Misfortune Post】, with an effect ten times that of the 【Bad Luck Post】, was not just bad luck; it had to draw blood.

"Three days; you must not die ahead of time!" Zhou Qing whispered.

Lu Lu Yaoyao lowered her voice, full of confusion: "Zhou Zhou Shixiong, what did you say?"

Zhou Qing turned to look at her and suddenly grinned: "Nothing, now you help me make a decision!"

"I help you make a decision? Why?" Lu Lu Yaoyao asked curiously.

Zhou Qing's voice suddenly became softer: "Because you have better luck; you are my lucky star!"

Lu Lu Yaoyao's body trembled slightly, and she was in a trance for a moment.

"Little lucky star, which direction do you think Daddy should escape to?"

A middle-aged man with a face full of stubble and exhaustion, the broken sword in his hand still dripping blood.

But he forced a smile and gently scraped her little nose as he asked.

"I don't know, it's all the same anyway!" A naive ignorance was hidden in her soft, childish voice.

The middle-aged uncle took the opportunity to carry the child onto his shoulder, his rough palm steadily supporting her little bottom.

"That's true! Either way, it's hiding; might as well walk toward where the sun sets!"

Zhou Qing looked at Lu Lu Yaoyao's suddenly reddened eyes and was at a loss for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Qing asked hurriedly.

Lu Lu Yaoyao bit her lip: "Zhou Zhou Shixiong, do you really think I am your lucky star?"

Zhou Qing was stunned, then understood and smiled slightly.

If it weren't for you, could I have obtained the inheritance of Senior Xuan Xuan Qingzi?

If it weren't for you, could I have farmed so many Ignore Points and Heart Appraisal Points?

If it weren't for you, could I have met so many interesting people and things?

Number Six thinks I am her fated person, but in my world, you are the one who brings me good luck.

"Of course!" Zhou Qing said with a firm expression.

Lu Lu Yaoyao couldn't help but laugh through her tears, then wiped her eyes, seeming extremely happy, and said: "What decision?"

Zhou Qing's gaze sharpened: "The first is that we hide here and wait to be expelled after five days."

"The second is, since we're already here, we might as well go out and look around; besides, find an opportunity to kill those two guys!"

When Zhou Qing said this, a sharp killing intent burst from his eyes.

Lu Lu Yaoyao was silent after hearing this.

Third Mama, as a late-stage Soul Severance Realm expert, came out seriously injured, and these two didn't understand the rules of this place at all, so they might go even deeper.

Therefore, the probability of encountering danger was definitely much higher.

But five days was still too short; what if they were lucky?

Once they were expelled together, they would still have no way to escape.

They would likely be used as tools to constantly open that six-colored array until they were exhausted to death.

But since this place was full of danger, why not follow their previous idea of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf?

If there was no danger, create danger for them.

She didn't believe that the natives living here, when facing several people at the same time, would give up on Yan Sen and the others and instead turn to hunt down two little ants like them.

That would be too degrading!

Since death was certain either way, might as well try to drag someone down with them.

Maybe they could even carve out a path to survival.

After thinking clearly, Lu Lu Yaoyao looked at Zhou Qing with burning eyes.

Meeting Lu Lu Yaoyao's gaze, Zhou Qing smiled knowingly.

It seemed that their thoughts were surprisingly consistent.

"Are you afraid?" Zhou Qing asked softly.

Lu Lu Yaoyao shook her head and said: "Not afraid!"

"Good, since that's the case, let's fight for it in this desperate situation!" Zhou Qing's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Lu Lu Yaoyao was even a little excited.

Everything seemed to have returned to the past.

"Let's go!" After a brief recovery, the two left quietly.

【Latest news: After recovering his arm, the victim of the post unfortunately fell into a four-colored killing prohibition, his soul suffered a heavy blow, and his companion was also injured due to being implicated while trying to save him.】

【Latest news: The companion carried him to find a safe place to heal, not expecting that this place was the residence of a late-stage Soul Severance Realm Demon Emperor; they were blocked right at the door, and a great battle was imminent.】

【Latest news: The victim of the post just escaped the pursuit of the Demon Emperor, and while fleeing, he accidentally triggered an ancient puppet mechanism and is being chased by hundreds of bronze puppets with nowhere to go.】

【Latest news: The victim of the post fled to a floating platform, but this platform suddenly tilted, coinciding with the once-in-five-hundred-years spiritual power turbulence; the two were torn and bruised by the violent spiritual flow and had to move in a panic.】

Looking at these messages one after another, Zhou Qing suddenly worried: would Yan Sen be able to last three days before kicking the bucket?

It had been less than half a day, and looking at these encounters, he was probably cursing his luck in his heart.

If this uncle and nephew could survive today, they would probably suspect that their horoscopes clashed.

"Zhou Zhou Shixiong, there are too many platforms here, and we flew too far to avoid them when we first came in; where are we going to find them?"

Lu Lu Yaoyao stood at the edge of the floating platform, looking at the undulating floating islands in the distance, her tone carrying a bit of worry.

They had originally thought about finding some benefits along the way, but after discussing it, they felt they were being too ambitious.

If there were really any benefits, they would have been patronized by the old Old Peng Wang long ago, and there were even many native Demon Emperors here.

How could it be their turn?

Even if there were, there were uncertain dangers; besides, even if they were lucky, if those two didn't die, when they were expelled together after five days, the things in their storage bags wouldn't be theirs.

Zhou Qing looked at the news from the 【Misfortune Post】 again and transformed into a Golden-Winged Great Peng again.

"Look around nearby and see which platform is tilted right now!" Zhou Qing suddenly had a direction in his heart and said.

Lu Lu Yaoyao was a bit confused but didn't ask much; she flew onto his back, and as Zhou Qing spread his wings, the two began to search carefully among the floating island group.

Three hours later, Lu Lu Yaoyao suddenly pointed to the side and exclaimed: "Zhou Zhou Shixiong, there!"

They saw a platform shaped like the back of a giant whale tilting strangely, the buildings on the edge constantly falling like building blocks, revealing the surging green spiritual flow below.

"How did you know there really was such a place?" Her eyes were full of surprise.

Zhou Qing showed excitement and landed on a nearby floating platform: "Restrain your aura, be silent. They might be nearby!"

The two hid in the cracks of the ruins, choosing a place with a wide view to stare into the distance.

About an hour later, two figures suddenly soared into the sky from an adjacent platform.

Although Yan Yan Weiyi's aura was unstable, he could still fly.

Yan Sen, however, was covered in blood, so disheveled he was almost unrecognizable.

Because the distance was too far, the details couldn't be seen clearly, but Lu Lu Yaoyao still whispered in shock: "This place is actually so dangerous; Yan Sen has become like this!"

Zhou Qing smiled without saying a word.

Only he knew that this was just an appetizer for the 【Misfortune Post】.

Don't rush, take it slow, there are still two days left!

Now that they had been found, as long as they had patience, they would definitely find an opportunity and then deliver a fatal blow.

Didn't they look down on them as two ants? But it just so happened that it was them who would bite the elephant to death.

"Follow!" Seeing them land on another adjacent platform, the two also pushed forward a bit.

Not long after, another bullet comment message came.

【Latest news: The victim of the post found an ancient flag preserved perfectly, thinking it was an ancient treasure; because he got it first, it made his companion extremely dissatisfied.】

【But he didn't expect that as soon as he got it, millions of strange vengeful spirits surged out from the flag, crazily launching spiritual sense attacks, and some were even devouring his flesh and blood.】

Just as they saw this, they saw two figures fleeing in a panic from that stone platform.

And behind them, a black mass, the leading main souls were actually emitting Ghost Emperor-level pressure.

Seeing this scene, Lu Lu Yaoyao's face turned pale.

She finally understood: this Kunpeng Palace, which could use a six-colored array as an entrance seal, was simply not a place for them to explore at their level.

"Idiot, don't follow me!" Yan Yan Weiyi roared, trying to tear through space, but failed due to spiritual power disorder and could only flee as a stream of light.

He didn't expect Yan Sen to follow him in a panic, which made Yan Yan Weiyi unable to help but curse angrily.

Yan Sen was on the verge of tears.

He had never thought this place would be so dangerous, and he truly had the worst luck in eight lifetimes.

In less than a day, look at what I've encountered.

He wanted to find a place to heal, but seeing Eighth Uncle frantically looking for good things gave him a sense of urgency.

He had to follow along, but what awaited him was bad luck time after time.

Now Eighth Uncle even disliked him and called him an idiot.

Damn it!

If it weren't for me, would you know about this place?

Now you think I'm a burden?

Now that both my flesh and soul are seriously injured, and there are so many vengeful spirits behind me, you want me to deal with it alone?

I couldn't even handle it at my peak, let alone now.

If I don't follow you, who do I follow?

Thinking of this, Yan Sen hurriedly pulled three pitch-black long needles from his storage bag and stabbed them fiercely into his major acupuncture points like the Dantian and Qihai.

The black needles were engraved with dense yin characters; the moment they were stabbed in, his pupils shrank to the size of needle tips, and the aura around his body surged strangely.

His speed increased several times, and he finally caught up with Yan Yan Weiyi, but it earned him a look of disgust from the other party.

Zhou Qing and Lu Lu Yaoyao hid behind the wreckage of the collapsed teleportation array, not even daring to breathe too heavily.

They watched as the Yan uncle and nephew were chased like stray dogs by Ghost Emperor-level vengeful spirits, but they didn't dare to show their faces.

After all, whether it was those vengeful spirits or the speed of the Soul Severance Realm, it was simply not something they could go out and face now.

I don't know how long it took, but when the vengeful spirits retreated like a tide, the two dared to carefully grope forward.

【Latest news...】

【Latest news...】

Watching the various bad luck messages of Yan Sen appearing before his eyes, Zhou Qing finally caught up again on the second day according to the clues.

【Heart Appraisal Points +9】

The 【So Amazing】 above Lu Lu Yaoyao's head changed into 【Good Nose】 again.

There were so many floating platforms here, and the range was boundless, yet her father could always find them.

This nose was truly amazing!

She still remembered last time, a plaque written in the essence blood of a Jin Peng was buried so deep, yet her father was able to find and dig it out.

Why didn't she inherit any of it?

"Serves you right, making you choke my neck; this is called retribution!"

Watching Yan Sen and Yan Yan Weiyi being chased away by three Demon Emperors again, Lu Lu Yaoyao clenched her little fists, feeling a sense of relief.

Zhou Qing shook his head and smiled.

But looking at the direction the two fled, he slowly furrowed his brows.

"Not yet!" Zhou Qing whispered to himself, then called Lu Lu Yaoyao and followed them again.

Until the afternoon of the third day, Zhou Qing had lost count of how many messages he had received.

He could only say that this 【Misfortune Post】 was truly hair-raising, and its effect could be called terrifying.

Almost every half an hour to an hour, Yan Sen would encounter a bloody disaster.

Even if he healed himself or took elixirs, he would cough up large mouthfuls of blood due to the conflict of qi and blood.

【Latest news: A Demon Emperor who was seriously injured due to a territorial dispute forcibly possessed the victim of the post in order to survive.】

【Because the companion rescued him in time, the possession failed, the victim of the post's soul suffered heavy losses, and the companion chose to leave briefly.】

Just at this moment, another message appeared.

Zhou Qing was stunned.

It seemed that the number of Demon Emperors in this palace was really not just a little bit; what exactly happened a long time ago?

Just as Zhou Qing was pondering, on a floating platform in the distance, Yan Yan Weiyi's figure soared into the sky.

Looking at him, he seemed to have suffered some injuries, and he was cursing something in his mouth, then turned and headed toward the deeper parts.

And after Zhou Qing waited for another hour, he immediately took Lu Lu Yaoyao toward that place.

Soon, following the traces, they discovered Yan Sen, who was dying and forcibly healing in an array.

"This is a four-colored array!" Seeing the protective barrier, Zhou Qing couldn't help but frown.

In this way, it was difficult to handle.

"Take advantage of his illness to kill him; Zhou Zhou Shixiong, get him!"

Seeing Yan Sen's pale face and withered aura, Lu Lu Yaoyao couldn't help but secretly transmit her voice.

Zhou Qing, however, shook his head gently and immediately appraised the array...
