Everyone stood up as Shui Zhi led the group forward. While flying forward, he carefully observed the surroundings. At the same time, he turned to Zhao Hai and the others and said, "Our Sage Sect has already made a lot of markings here. All of the places with traps have been marked. As long as you pay attention, you should be able to find those markings. Therefore, you should pay attention to them as well, lest you fall into a trap without knowing it."
Zhao Hai looked around and said, "What are the markings you're talking about?"
Shui Zhi replied, "It's a tiger's head. Our Holy Mountain uses the tiger's head as our symbol. This is because our Holy Mountain's first Holy Lord was a black tiger."
Everyone nodded. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and smiled faintly. Then he said, "Everyone, pay attention to the surroundings. At the same time, you should also be careful of the beasts." Everyone nodded.
Just like that, they flew forward for another two kilometers or so. During this process, they were attacked a few more times by Yao Gai. Fortunately, everyone managed to dodge, and no one was injured. This could be considered extremely fortunate.
After arriving at the second resting area, Shui Zhi allowed everyone to rest. At the same time, Zhao Hai also arranged for people to guard the area to prevent the beasts from attacking them. Even in the resting area, the ground was covered with things to prevent the beasts from attacking them from below. One must know that the beasts were able to pass through the stones as if they were flying through the air.
Everyone had been flying for two hours. At the same time, they also used their spiritual force to pay attention to the beasts. Because of this, they felt very tired. Because of this, they needed to take a good rest.
While everyone was resting, Zhao Hai turned to Shui Zhi and said, "Shui Zhi, you've been exploring this labyrinth. Is there something good in this labyrinth?"
Shui Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, there are a lot of good things in this labyrinth. There are artifacts, cultivation methods, and some materials. These things are placed in this labyrinth, but we don't know where they are. Sometimes, you might encounter them while walking. Sometimes, even if you look for them, you won't be able to find them. But in general, places with traps will have good things. Those things are usually placed on top of the traps, and some are even placed next to the traps. The reason why we said that this labyrinth was naturally formed is because of the beasts. Those beasts seem to be guarding those things. No matter what it is, as long as you touch it, the beasts will certainly attack you. Moreover, the beasts that attack you are very strong. So in the past, we thought that those things were collected by the beasts. Those beasts instinctively knew where to place those things, so they placed those things inside. But later on, we found out that there were too many things inside the labyrinth. But no matter what, we can't rule out this possibility. This underground labyrinth is too big. If it was really built by humans, then the amount of work required would be too astonishing. Therefore, we can't be sure that this labyrinth was built by humans. You can also imagine that the places we explored are enough for us to walk for three days. And this doesn't include the places that we can't enter. The deeper we go, the more forks there are. So for such a large labyrinth, if it was built by humans, then how long would it take to build it? It's precisely because of this idea that we weren't sure if this labyrinth was built by humans, it's just too exaggerated. "
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Now it seems like this labyrinth was really built by humans. As for why such a large labyrinth could be built, it's actually very simple. There are two possibilities. First, there was a sky labyrinth here, but it wasn't as large as this one, and there weren't as many traps. Later on, a sect discovered this place and wanted to turn it into a treasure trove. But since it was a place for disciples to train, they decided to modify the labyrinth and eventually formed this labyrinth. The second possibility is that the other party had beasts that were good at digging, and they used these beasts to build this labyrinth. This isn't impossible. The beasts here might have been raised by the other party to guard the treasures. Otherwise, why would the beasts attack you when you discovered the treasures and wanted to take them away? Therefore, this is absolutely possible. "
Everyone nodded. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Everyone should take this time to rest. When we start exploring the labyrinth, we need to pay attention. This is because treasures might appear at any time."
Everyone nodded. To be honest, Zhao's words were right in their hearts. They wanted to find some good things here. You know, they didn't find anything good in the Mystic Realm. Although it was safe, they still felt very uncomfortable in their hearts.
Now, they had a chance to find something good. This was very important for them, so they were looking forward to it.
When they were resting here, they were attacked by beasts. Fortunately, Shui Zhi was very experienced in dealing with these beasts. In the end, they were scared but not hurt. Everyone was fine.
After resting for two hours, everyone set off again. This time, Shui Zhi was even more careful. Looking at Shui Zhi's appearance, Zhao Hai knew that Shui Zhi hadn't been to the labyrinth many times. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so careful.
In fact, Zhao Hai's guess was right. Although Shui Zhi's strength was good, it wasn't much in the Demon Race. There were a lot of people who were stronger than him. In the Demon Race, strength was respected. Naturally, those who were strong would have more opportunities to enter the labyrinth. At this time, those who weren't strong enough wouldn't even have the opportunity to enter the labyrinth. For Shui Zhi to be able to enter the labyrinth twice was already very good. But because he rarely came, he didn't know much about the labyrinth. Therefore, he was very careful along the way.
Not long after they set off from the second resting point, they found that there were several forks in the road ahead. At one of the forks, there was a black tiger head mark. It was very conspicuous.
As soon as he saw the tiger head mark, Shui Zhi immediately said, "We can't enter the cave with the tiger head mark. Not only will we die if we enter, we can also enter the other caves. However, the places that we go to are different. I only went through one of them, which is the third cave from the right. Walking from that cave for two days is the limit of my exploration. But I only went through the first one and a half days, I didn't go through the latter part. I don't know much about it, but as long as we pay attention to the marks, there shouldn't be any problems."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Alright, we'll take the path that you took. After all, it's more familiar and safer. I think we should speed up a bit. Flying slowly like this would be more dangerous, this is because the beasts would be able to attack us more easily. You lead the way while we pay attention to the back. As long as we find a marked area, we should avoid it. There shouldn't be any danger. Also, if we want to obtain treasures, then there's no need to take risks. Let's speed up."
Everyone nodded, they felt that Zhao Hai was right, they should speed up. Seeing that everyone nodded, Shui Zhi also said, "Alright, we'll listen to Master. I'll speed up." After saying that, he led the group directly into the path he was familiar with and sped up to fly forward.
Everyone followed behind Shui Zhi, but at the same time, they were also paying attention to their surroundings to see if there was a tiger head mark. As long as there was a tiger head mark, they would immediately get out of the way.
Although Zhao Hai was now following behind Shui Zhi, he also released silver needles into the other caves. Even the cave with a tiger head mark was filled with silver needles.
With this increase in speed, the number of beasts that attacked them decreased. Because of Shui Zhi leading the way, they didn't encounter any danger. Although they passed by a few traps, they were all avoided. Zhao Hai also didn't want to test the power of the traps.
Originally, Shui Zhi knew that if they flew at their previous speed, it would take them a day and a half. However, after they sped up, it only took them five hours to get out of the area that Shui Zhi was familiar with. The next area was a place that Shui Zhi had never been to before. There were very few places that he could help with.
However, Zhao Hai didn't let everyone slow down. Instead, he flew in front while paying attention to their surroundings. When they saw a tiger head mark, they immediately got out of the way. Because of this, their speed was very fast.
After walking for another four hours, Zhao Hai suddenly stopped. This was because he saw a row of tiger head marks in front of them. These tiger head marks blocked the entire cave.
Shui Zhi also saw the tiger head mark, so he immediately said, "Master, we're here. From here, we'll enter an area that we haven't explored yet. We need to be more careful because from here on out, we'll have to rely on ourselves to find traps. The danger has greatly increased."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, I understand. I think we should rest here first and then slowly move forward. After all, the following journey will be dangerous. What do you think?"
Everyone nodded, nobody objected. They had been on the road for more than nine hours. They only rested for a while, so they were already tired. The following journey was full of unknown dangers. They must be in their best condition. Therefore, they all agreed to take a good rest.
This time, they rested for a long time, a full four hours. This allowed everyone to recover to their best condition. At the same time, they also formulated some countermeasures. If they really found danger, what should they do? If someone really fell into a trap, how should the people inside cooperate with the people outside. After these discussions, everyone got up and prepared to explore the maze.
