Yan Zhaoge was all smiles as he looked at Yang Chufan and the others.
Yang Chufan smiled bitterly, "We also coincidentally obtained news of the location of the barrier. It was rumoured that there were treasures here, so we came to try our luck. We are also not clear on what exactly is here."
"Seeing you emerge from the barrier, we had still thought that you would be able to tell us a thing or two."
Yan Zhaoge spread his hands apart, smiling, "You also don't believe that I would emerge from the barrier empty-handed, right?"
Yang Chufan and the others smiled awkwardly, while Yan Zhaoge nodded nonchalantly, "Alright, if it were me, I wouldn't believe it either."
"Since that is so, let's really take a look around. Anyway, I already know how to get to Changli Mountain."
Yan Zhaoge leisurely turned, strolling back into the barrier as the Spirit Rhino Island martial practitioners exchanged looks, smiling bitterly without end.
Fang Min smiled bitterly, "Forget it. If not for this Young Master Yan, we would probably already have perished at the hands of Jiang Xiong and the others. We should be the ones thanking him for saving our lives."
Other than her being the granddaughter of Spirit Rhino Island's Chief and having been captured alive by Jiang Xiong due to her unique status, the others would have been hard pressed to survive.
Yang Chufan nodded, "I don't know how this person entered, but he was originally within the barrier. Whether or not he found any treasures earlier, he was already here before us, not really taking advantage of us …"
After a pause, Yang Chufan continued, "… Most importantly, we are also unable to stop him."
The other Spirit Rhino Island martial practitioners beside him all had rather helpless expressions on their faces, "Now that he has returned, what do we do?"
"Even if we enter, we won't be able to snatch any treasures from him."
Yang Chufan said, "This barrier is vast, covering such a vast area. Its depths are hard to predict. Alone, he might not be able to take care of everything."
"If we enter, we might be able to obtain some fortune."
A Spirit Rhino Island martial practitioner beside him asked hesitantly, "This person is very domineering, also vicious and merciless. If we obtain a fortune, will he snatch it from us?"
Fang Min said, "We have to try. If we obtain it, it is our fate. If we don't, it is our fortune. At the very least, it is better than dying at the hands of the Evil Shifting Sect's Jiang Xiong and the others."
Yang Chufan said, "Since it's a fortuitous encounter, it's often not decided by strength alone. If we can fight for it, we will naturally fight for it."
He glanced at Fang Min and said, "Junior Martial Brother Fang is nearby. Previously, he was trapped by Jiang Xiong and the others and couldn't be contacted. Now that he's here, we won't have to worry about this Yan guy forcing himself on us."
"At the end of the day, this person has helped us. Our Spirit Rhino Island clearly distinguishes between gratitude and enmity. We just have to repay him later on. However, there's no need for us to avoid him every time we see him, or even hide from him when searching for treasures."
Hearing his words, the other Spirit Rhino Island martial practitioners all nodded, "That is how it should be."
Fang Min asked curiously, "Second Uncle also came to the Bewildering Maze Sea?"
Yang Chufan said, "That's right. He sent a signal and left a message. Let's also enter the barrier."
Currently, within the barrier, Yan Zhaoge strode amidst the air atop the sea.
Temporarily not considering the matter of the Eight Extremities World and also not having to worry about Shi Jun and Xu Fei, Yan Zhaoge now placed all his attention on the barrier before him, gradually having a different feeling about it.
"Oh, interesting. This enchantment is not ordinary. It covers such a vast area, but it is usually deep and reserved, making it hard for people to detect. It is grand yet subtle. This kind of method is not something a Great Grandmaster can do."
Seeing it, Yan Zhaoge clicked his tongue in wonder, "It feels a little like when I entered the old residence of the Glacial Dragon Martial Saint back then. Perhaps this is yet another legacy site of a Martial Saint?"
"Yes, and also a Martial Saint expert who is proficient in the dao of barriers and seals."
Yan Zhaoge thought as he advanced unceasingly.
He would occasionally send out a streak of sword-light, shooting straight into the skies. The sword-light seemed to vanish into the horizon, but very quickly, ripples that resembled water would appear above the seemingly empty sky.
Feeling the changes occurring to this barrier as it was shaken, Yan Zhaoge unceasingly adjusted his direction.
The Spirit Rhino Island martial practitioners entered the barrier after him, Yan Zhaoge not stopping them.
As they tried to follow behind him, Yan Zhaoge smiled, seemingly not minding it at all.
However, while his speed seemed leisurely and leisurely, the more he walked, the more Yang Chufan and the others were unable to keep up with his speed, being left behind by him to the point where they could no longer be seen.
After a long period of searching, Yan Zhaoge suddenly halted.
Standing within the sky and gazing downwards, there was nothing in the air above the boundless sea, no islands to be seen.
After gazing at the surface of the sea down below for a moment, Yan Zhaoge suddenly raised his palm, striking downwards.
His true essence condensed into a single line, breaking through the seawater and heading downwards, unceasingly descending before his palm finally landed at the bottom of the sea.
Yan Zhaoge could clearly feel an intense rebounding force emanating from the depths of the sea, even causing him to feel a chill in his heart.
"With this force, it can't be wrong. This is the seal left behind by a Martial Saint." Yan Zhaoge raised his brows slightly, looking at the sea down below that had been split apart by his palm force. The seawater dispersed into the surroundings, revealing a massive spirit formation that flickered with radiance at the bottom of the sea.
Streams of light circulated on the spirit formation, a powerful force beginning to expand unceasingly into the surroundings, stirring the seawater as a massive whirlpool was gradually formed.
With the spirit formation as its centre, the whirlpool rotated unceasingly, the seawater within a radius of thousands of kilometres being stirred together, a rather majestic sight to behold.
Yan Zhaoge descended, landing within the whirlpool, heading towards the spirit formation at the bottom of the sea.
The centre of the whirlpool merged with the spirit formation, seemingly piercing through space as a door was formed.
As Yan Zhaoge strode through the door, before him was a foreign dimension.
This space gave off a feeling of barrenness. As Yan Zhaoge gazed over, all he saw was a blurry scene.
He could not feel much abundant spiritual qi, nor did he feel any shocking power, just feeling heavy and heavy.
Yan Zhaoge closed his eyes, his entire body's true essence circulating as streams of clear qi seemed to flow out of his acupoints, next drifting indistinctly as they expanded towards this foreign dimension.
Where the clear qi passed, it was like it was one with space as the situation here was displayed to Yan Zhaoge in its entirety.
Even with his sensory abilities raised to the maximum, Yan Zhaoge still felt that this place was completely empty, causing him to wonder if he had been a step too late. Even if there were treasures here, they had already been taken away by someone else.
"Huh?" Yan Zhaoge's mind jolted slightly as he felt a stream of clear qi seemingly vanishing into the sea, actually losing its connection with him.
Not shocked, Yan Zhaoge was instead overjoyed, a hint of a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth as he immediately set off in that direction.
A moment later, a stone statue appeared before Yan Zhaoge.
The stone statue depicted a thin old man seated in the meditative position, alone within this foreign dimension. His surroundings were dark and gloomy, with no vegetation, no soil at all.
Looking at this stone statue, Yan Zhaoge fell into deep thought.
Meanwhile, outside of this foreign dimension, within the region of sea that was enveloped by a barrier, Yang Chufan and the others were currently walking on the great sea.
Suddenly, joyous expressions appeared on their faces. Swivelling their heads, they saw a figure traversing through the air in pursuit of them.
His majestic power shook the heavens and the earth, his martial true intent being of Spirit Rhino Island's direct lineage, his cultivation base clearly being that of an Essence Talisman Martial Grandmaster.
Fang Min called out happily, "Second Uncle!"
