Although he walked faster than when he came, Xiao Chen still walked for a few days before he vaguely saw a plaza-like place not far away! There were many people on the plaza-like place, which made Xiao Chen slightly stunned!
Wasn't this the exit? Why were there so many people? What were these people doing here instead of leaving?
Xiao Chen quickened his pace, but he couldn't see the situation in front clearly because it was densely packed with people. He could only find a person on the periphery and ask, "Brother, may I ask … what is this? Isn't this the exit? Why aren't you leaving? "
"Leaving? Are you new here? "The person was stunned at first, then he suddenly asked.
"Yes, I just succeeded in Dao enlightenment, so I came over. However, I heard that this is the exit, why can't I get out?" Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"Don't mention it, there is a formation here. All of us are taking turns to attack the formation. I heard that only by breaking the formation can we get out!" The person wiped the sweat on his forehead and said to Xiao Chen, "Come and queue with me! Wait for the next round of attacks! "
"Oh? What do you mean? So many people haven't broken the formation? "Xiao Chen was surprised.
"Yes, it hasn't been broken since the beginning, so no one has gotten out!" The person said gloomily, "I've been here for half a year!"
"What!" Xiao Chen was shocked. Half a year? Didn't that mean that after the people of Dao Enlightenment Sand Valley came, no one left? Even if they succeeded in Dao enlightenment, they were all gathered here to break some formation.
"Sigh, it's nothing to fuss about. I was also shocked when I first came, but I slowly got used to it. What else can we do if we don't break the formation?" The person looked at Xiao Chen's expression and said disapprovingly, "In a while, when it's our turn, we'll use all our strength to attack the formation!"
"All our strength? Don't tell me that no one is hiding it? " Xiao Chen realized that everyone was queuing up, and there were quite a number of people standing behind him. However, they were all orderly, standing in a circle, not fighting or fighting.
"Hiding what? Who didn't want to go out? Furthermore, it is not too tiring to use Martial Techniques here. After using all my strength once, I will be able to recover my strength in no time. " The man said, "I have nothing to do anyway. It's better for me to keep using martial arts to attack the formation!"
"Then why didn't you keep attacking? Why didn't you come down?" Xiao Chen asked.
"That won't do. Won't that be a waste of time? We've agreed that we'll go round by round. Each wave of people will go up and attack once, and then come down. We'll line up at the back and recover our stamina. The next wave of people will go up and attack. This way, we'll be able to unleash the greatest attack power. " The man explained, "If I were to keep attacking there, no one would be willing to do so!"
"Is that so? From what I can see, there are some people resting nearby." Xiao Chen pointed at a spot not too far away. There were several cultivators resting at the edge of the square.
"Their attack power is too weak, and they were mocked by others, so they were embarrassed to come up. Also, they felt bored, so they went to stay for a while and came back later." That person said, "Otherwise, who wouldn't want to attack the formation? Everyone has succeeded in comprehending the Dao, and is looking for a place to display it! "That person said.
Xiao Chen was somewhat speechless. It turned out that they were not slacking off. The rules here were somewhat strange.
After a while, it was Xiao Chen's group's turn. Xiao Chen and that person went up. However, Xiao Chen did not use the Fireball Technique. Instead, he used the Dark Flame Palm.
In front of everyone, there was a cylindrical ice crystal that looked like a crystal. It was impossible to see inside. This pillar flickered with a dazzling silver light, just like an ice lantern. It was very beautiful.
Xiao Chen saw that everyone was attacking this pillar with all their might. Perhaps this was the so-called formation. Xiao Chen also slapped it with his palm.
However, after he finished, before he could carefully admire it, he heard the others shout, "Let's retreat, next wave!"
Before Xiao Chen could react, he was pulled to the side by that person, making room for the people behind him.
"Ahhh, I'm going to rest for a while. You go line up first!" Xiao Chen said after being pulled out.
"Oh, up to you!" That person shook his head, as if he was looking down on Xiao Chen. You can't even make one move and you still want to rest. Isn't this too weak? Right now, you might think that you are slacking off. After a long time, you will know how boring it is to sit there!
People who have just arrived are all like this. When they are bored, they will discover that attacking this formation is the best way to play. It's just like playing a game, where everyone is fighting the world boss together.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was very calm. He walked to the side and found a place to sit down. He felt that this sand valley was filled with strangeness. Previously, he could already conclude that there was someone controlling the sand valley from behind. Then, was there some premeditated plan to attack this cylindrical ice crystal?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. After all, if this sand valley was really the so-called Dao Comprehension Sand Valley, then why was it so easy to enter as long as one had Spirit Stones but it was as difficult as ascending to heaven when one wanted to leave?
So many Martial Masters were attacking this cylindrical ice crystal, but there was no effect at all. That person had been attacking it for half a year. These people had been attacking it repeatedly, but they still didn't succeed. This didn't make any sense!
In theory, if this sand valley did not have any ill intentions, then one could enter and leave. But from the looks of the current situation, if only one person entered, how could he break the array? Then wouldn't he die of old age here?
With so many people unable to break the array, one person would not be able to leave in his lifetime.
Unreasonable, absolutely unreasonable! Xiao Chen did not know if the others had thought of this point or if they had thought of it, there was no other way. Perhaps in their opinion, breaking the array was the only way!
But would breaking the cylindrical ice crystal really allow one to leave? If not for his previous experience, Xiao Chen might have believed it. But now, Xiao Chen did not believe that the person behind the sand valley was so kind.
No matter how he looked at it, Xiao Chen felt that he was filled with malice. He made everyone feel that they had gained enlightenment and improved their martial skills. Then, he made everyone hold onto hope and work hard to attack the cylindrical ice crystal.
"Elder Heaven Ancestor, what do you think?" Xiao Chen asked.
"I don't know for the time being, but I think you can try to communicate with that cylindrical ice crystal and see if there is any effect?" Elder Heaven Ancestor thought for a moment and suggested.
"Alright." Xiao Chen tried to sit cross-legged on the ground and began to communicate with the cylindrical ice crystal, just like how he communicated with the crack.
Sure enough, not long after, Xiao Chen felt a trace of aura coming from the cylindrical ice crystal. Xiao Chen entered another thought and saw that it was the same person from before. He was holding a large saber and slashed at the cylindrical ice crystal. The cylindrical ice crystal shattered and this person was instantly teleported out of the sand valley …
If he had not sensed this scene, it would have been fine. But now that he had, Xiao Chen was a hundred percent sure that breaking the cylindrical ice crystal was definitely not a good thing!
That person had given such a strong hint. Others would definitely believe it, but Xiao Chen did not believe it.
Xiao Chen thought for a moment and decided to give it another try. Then, he carefully observed the cylindrical ice crystal to see if there was any problem.
Standing at the back of the queue, he just happened to see that person attack again. Seeing Xiao Chen coming over, he couldn't help but laugh: "How is it? Didn't I say it? You sitting on the side will get bored very quickly. That's not being lazy, it's just being bored to death!"
"Alright." Xiao Chen smiled: "Oh right, those who have just entered the sand valley, what if they come here?"
"Oh, those who can't come, without successfully comprehending the Dao, there will be a barrier here. You can only see the end of the sand valley, you can't come over." That person said: "I went the wrong way before."
"So that's how it is." Xiao Chen nodded his head.
After a while, it was Xiao Chen's turn to attack that person again. This time, Xiao Chen used the Fireball Technique. A fireball hit the cylindrical ice crystal.
"Boom –"
The cylindrical ice crystal was shaken by Xiao Chen's attack. It shook twice on the spot, and the surface, after being roasted by the Samadhi True Fire, caved in a large area. Although the fireball was extinguished in the end, this move was much stronger than the others' attacks!
Everyone looked at Xiao Chen with some shock and some surprise! This person was so powerful. They had attacked for so long, but the effect was minimal. This person had caved in with one move?
However, Xiao Chen didn't care about this. He could clearly feel that there was an excited and joyful aura coming from the cylindrical ice crystal. It seemed that he was very happy that Xiao Chen could cause such great damage to it!
And at this moment, Xiao Chen felt that there seemed to be a black shadow in the cylindrical ice crystal, and this black shadow seemed to be the figure that he saw in his comprehension! Oh? That guy, is he inside?
"Young hero, you're too awesome. Continue activating your martial arts!" The cultivators at the back saw that Xiao Chen was so powerful, so they didn't rush to replace him. Instead, they all said to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to continue activating his martial arts. His intuition told him that if he really broke the cylindrical ice crystal, it wouldn't end well for him. So, he smiled bitterly and said, "This won't do. This move of mine has exhausted all my strength. I need to rest and recover!"
"Oh, so that's how it is! Then hurry up and rest! " The crowd didn't suspect anything. After all, the power of this unique skill was shocking. It was normal for Xiao Chen to rest for a while.
Thus, Xiao Chen walked to the side to rest. The people behind him also replaced him and continued to attack the cylindrical ice crystal.
"Elder Heaven Ancestor, do you feel anything?" Xiao Chen asked.
"There's something inside the cylindrical ice crystal. It seems to be a Primordial Spirit!" Elder Heaven Ancestor said slowly, "It's a powerful existence. Even I feel a little apprehensive when I sense its aura …"
"Oh?" Xiao Chen was slightly shocked. There was a Primordial Spirit inside the cylindrical ice crystal? Did that mean that it was the mastermind that controlled the entire Dao Enlightenment Sand Valley?
