Chapter 238
"Shijie means that there is a demonic beast at least at the Golden Core realm in this secret realm?
I don't think it's very likely. If there were a Golden Core demonic beast, I'm afraid it would have started a massacre the moment the secret realm opened. In a situation where even Foundation Establishment cultivators cannot enter, how could it allow us and the demonic path disciples to mess around in the secret realm and keep hiding without acting?
Moreover, this secret realm clearly has certain restrictions on overly powerful forces. With the terrifying strength of this demonic beast that can counter-attack a Nascent Soul cultivator, how could this secret realm accommodate it?" Wang Yu shook his head repeatedly.
"Junior Brother, don't forget, Jialan Venerable was also a Nascent Soul cultivator. Isn't it also possible for him to easily enter this secret realm and set up so many backup plans?" Ximen Mei, however, clearly had a different view and retorted.
"The means of a Nascent Soul cultivator are unfathomable. It's not strange to have a way to enter the secret realm. This demonic beast was once Jialan Venerable's spirit beast. It really seems possible to have the same means to linger in this secret realm." After Wang Yu pondered for a while, his expression changed suddenly.
"So the most important thing now is to leave here quickly and get out of this secret realm. As long as we get outside, with the Ancestor and the four Golden Core Ancestors, even if that spider demonic beast really appears, we don't need to fear it." Ximen Mei said so.
"This place is not a good place. I also want to leave, but this place has restricted spells, and even the power of artifacts has been restricted together. Wanting to leave from here is probably not very easy." Wang Yu spread his hands and replied with a bitter smile.
This stone hall was built quite strangely. Although it had four walls and a hall roof, there was an extra huge passage in the center above, which was exactly where the two had fallen out from.
"We can't just sit here and wait for death. We have to try it." Ximen Mei said very insistently.
"This is natural. Sitting still and waiting for death is not Wang's way of doing things. Since artifacts cannot be used, talismans should also be invalid, right?" After Wang Yu thought for a while, he asked the woman.
"I've also tried talismans; they really can't be activated anymore." Ximen Mei replied, biting her silver teeth.
The forbidden Dharma restrictions here almost immediately wasted eight or nine out of ten of her means, especially those few talismans and talisman treasures personally bestowed by the Tianchan Ancestor, which were originally supposed to be her life-saving means.
"In that case, let's look around first to see if there are any other ways out. If not, then consider other methods." After Wang Yu pondered, he could only say so.
"Good, let's see if there are any hidden doors or secret passages hidden behind these walls." Ximen Mei nodded repeatedly.
Following this, the two separated and checked the four walls of the hall bit by bit.
Wang Yu took out a bone hammer artifact from his storage bag and tapped on the stone walls he thought were suspicious from time to time, while Ximen Mei on the other side took out a short ruler and tapped on the reliefs on the stone wall from time to time.
Wang Yu turned on the overclocking mode. Relying on his super five senses, the feel from the bone hammer in his hand and the sound from the stone wall told him that these stone walls were all solid mountain walls, and he didn't find any suspicious place that might hide a hidden door at all.
Ximen Mei on the other side had the same result. The two gathered together again in the center of the stone hall and couldn't help but look at each other.
"Wang Shidi, you said earlier that there were other means. What means are you referring to?" Ximen Mei couldn't help but ask.
"What other means could there be? Naturally, it's to see if we can escape back the way we came." Hearing this, Wang Yu looked up at the passage he had fallen out from above and said with his eyes narrowed.
"There is no way to cast spells here. How are you going to get up?" Ximen Mei was surprised.
"Who said that getting up there requires spells? My body-refining technique hasn't been affected in the slightest. Shijie, please step back two steps." Wang Yu said to Ximen Mei with a chuckle.
Ximen Mei looked at the passage exit, which was five or six feet high, and couldn't help but show a skeptical expression, but she still stepped back two steps as told.
Wang Yu took out a thick bone spear from his storage bag without haste, then took out a long rope, tied it tightly to the spear handle, weighed it with one hand, tested the weight, and then nodded.
"You intend to..." Seeing this, Ximen Mei suddenly realized.
Wang Yu had already smiled at her, then took a deep breath, his body suddenly grew a circle larger, and the arm holding the bone spear also grew a circle thicker at the same time.
"Go!"
Wang Yu tilted his body and gave a low shout, throwing his thick arm fiercely toward the top.
"Whoosh."
The bone spear shot toward the passage above like a meteor.
With a "bang" sound.
Relying on the huge force, the bone spear sank directly into the stone at the edge of the passage for a large section, and even some gravel rolled down. The long rope also fell from above, only a foot or so away from the ground.
Ximen Mei was overjoyed and couldn't help but step back a few more steps.
"Shijie, wait a moment, I'll go up and scout the path first." After Wang Yu said this to the woman, he stepped on the ground fiercely, his figure shot into the sky, jumped nearly two feet high, and grabbed the rope.
Then he used force with both hands, climbed rapidly along the rope to the top, inserted both hands directly into the stone, and after a shake, climbed into the passage like an ape.
Ximen Mei opened her eyes wide, watching the passage entrance without blinking.
But after less than a cup of tea's time, Wang Yu jumped down from the passage with a somersault. After a gale rolled by, he landed steadily beside Ximen Mei.
"Shidi, how is it? Can we escape from above?" Ximen Mei asked hurriedly.
"No, there are also restrictions above. Once you enter inside, the higher you go, the heavier your body becomes. With my body strength, after climbing several dozen feet upward, I couldn't continue to go up anymore." Wang Yu shook his head and said.
"It's also impassable above. Are we really going to be trapped to death here?" Ximen Mei's pretty face lost its color, and a trace of despair appeared.
"It hasn't reached the point where there is absolutely no way out. Why should Shijie be so depressed so early?" At this time, Wang Yu suddenly smiled and said to the woman.
"What does Shidi mean by this? Do you still have a way to leave here?" Hearing this, Ximen Mei couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised again.
"Since there is no way around and no door to the sky, let's see if there is a way out underground." Wang Yu looked down at his feet, at the floor tiles that were much cleaner and neater than other places, and said slowly.
These floor tiles also vaguely formed a simple circular pattern.
"Shidi says there is a way out below?" Ximen Mei was slightly startled when she heard this, and subconsciously stepped on the ground fiercely a few times, but didn't feel any abnormality.
"When I first landed here, from the sound of landing, I felt that this ground had some problems. At least it didn't look like a completely solid ground below." Wang Yu looked at the white floor tiles under his feet and said lightly.
