It turned out that after the powerful figure caught the old tortoise, he realized that it was impossible to kill the old tortoise, so he set up the Stone Forest Formation and trapped the old tortoise in it. He also found a precious treasure as a divine object to suppress the Formation Eye, and used the power of the formation to wear down the old tortoise's Primordial Qi day and night.
The person who set up the formation was also meticulous. He used a precious treasure as a divine object to suppress the Formation Eye, completely cutting off the old tortoise's escape route, making it difficult for him to break out.
The formation sealed heaven and earth, completely blocking the Spiritual Qi from the outside. The old tortoise inside could not absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, and could only consume it without replenishing it. In this way, the old tortoise's Primordial Qi would be completely consumed by the formation one day.
When that time came, the old tortoise would not be able to escape death.
"Who on earth did you offend?" After listening to the old tortoise's narration, Gu Fei could not help but be a little curious about the person who trapped the old tortoise.
What on earth happened in the ancient times? How could it cause such a powerful person to meet with misfortune? Otherwise, the Ruin Heavenly Realm would have been taken away by that person long ago.
No one would casually abandon a world that had been personally refined. Controlling this pseudo world was equivalent to carrying a mobile treasure vault with him. There was no need to worry about the depletion of Spiritual Qi.
Even an Immortal-level peerless expert would be envious of it and risk his life for it.
"Forget it. It's been so long. I'm afraid that guy has already died. There's no point talking about it." The old tortoise seemed to be very afraid of that person and was unwilling to say more.
Gu Fei smiled and did not ask anymore, because he knew that it was disgraceful for the old tortoise to be defeated by that person. Therefore, Gu Fei changed the topic to breaking the formation.
Gu Fei learned from the old tortoise that it was very difficult and extremely dangerous to break the Stone Forest Formation. It could be said that there was a slim chance of survival, and one could be sacrificed at any time.
When Gu Fei learned that the method of breaking the formation was so dangerous, he could not help but curse the old tortoise's eighteen generations of ancestors. How preposterous! No wonder this antique was sealed away for countless years.
Who would dare to try it rashly? As long as it was possible, no one would be willing to die. After all, they only had one life. If they died, they could not be reborn. There was no regret.
"Are you going to do it or not?" The Old Tortoise was very straightforward and directly expressed his attitude. It was up to him whether he wanted to do it or not. If he did it, he might be able to escape with his life. If he didn't, then there was only one result, and that was to wait for death.
Old Tortoise was not in a hurry, but that did not mean that Gu Fei was not.
He only had ten days. If he couldn't get out of the stone forest within these ten days, Gu Fei would be trapped in the Ruin Sky Realm even if he didn't die in the Grand Formation of the stone forest.
In the Ruin Heaven Realm, all external forces above the Self-Awakening stage were suppressed. In the Ruin Heaven Realm, Gu Fei would never be able to break through the cultivation barrier and enter the Transcending Mortality stage. The power here was restricting his breakthrough.
If they were trapped in the Ruin Heaven Realm, there would only be one outcome, and that was … death!
Time waits for no man. If he went forward to break the formation, there was still a slim chance of survival. If he didn't, he would die. There was no other choice. Gu Fei had no way out.
If he retreated, he would definitely die. If he advanced, there might be a chance of survival. Gu Fei was not a fool. Since there was a chance of survival, he had to fight for it. He could not sit still and wait for death.
"I say, Old Tortoise, you're really not kind!" Gu Fei's good impression of the Old Tortoise immediately plummeted to the bottom. The longer this old antique lived, the more afraid he was of death.
The Old Tortoise leaned against a willow tree, crossed his legs, and looked at Gu Fei complacently. "Hehe, if I don't take risks, I can still live comfortably in my Pseudo Realm for thousands of years, but you … won't live so long."
The Old Tortoise had already expected that Gu Fei would definitely agree to break the formation, because Gu Fei had no other choice.
"Don't worry, you won't die. With the remnant soul of the Divine Weapon in your body, I have a fifty percent chance of breaking the formation and removing the divine blade that suppresses the formation eye.
"Tsk!" Gu Fei could not be bothered with the Old Tortoise anymore. Then, he found a clean boulder by the lake and sat cross-legged on it. He activated his cultivation technique and absorbed the Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth in the Pseudo Realm.
Although the Pseudo Realm of Old Tortoise was not big, the small valley was filled with vegetation and was filled with endless Plant Essence Qi. Tiny green lights began to appear around Gu Fei's body and were then guided into Gu Fei's body.
Not only the Plant Essence Qi, but also the Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth also converged toward Gu Fei. Vigorous vitality flowed in his body. Gu Fei's flesh, blood, organs, and bones seemed to be transported with endless vitality.
As time passed, the Essence Qi that gathered from all directions could gradually be clearly seen by the naked eye. A dense spiritual mist lingered around Gu Fei.
This time, the Old Tortoise's expression turned ugly. This kid was really robbing the "nutrients" of the Pseudo Realm. The Pseudo Realm was the Old Tortoise's last resort.
The Stone Forest Formation isolated the Heaven and Earth, causing the space within the formation to become a vacuum of Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth. During the countless years of being sealed, the Old Tortoise relied on consuming the Essence Qi of the Pseudo Realm to survive until now.
The Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth in the Pseudo Realm decreased with each consumption. It was impossible to absorb any energy from the outside world to replenish the Essence Qi that was consumed.
Now, Gu Fei was absorbing the Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth in the Pseudo Realm wantonly in front of him. How could the Old Tortoise not feel heartache? He was simply bleeding himself!
Rumble … What the Old Tortoise was worried about seemed to be happening. There was a faint sound of muffled thunder at the edge of the Pseudo Realm.
The massive loss of Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth caused the Pseudo Realm to become somewhat unstable.
"Kid, you're ruthless!" The Old Tortoise immediately jumped up from the ground and pointed at Gu Fei. He was furious and had the urge to slap Gu Fei to death.
However, if he killed Gu Fei with a slap, no one would be able to break the formation.
"I'll endure it!" The Old Tortoise suppressed the impulse in his heart and slowly calmed down. After taking a few deep breaths, the Old Tortoise turned around and left.
What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over.
In the Pseudo Realm of the Old Tortoise, there was no sun, moon, or stars. There was no distinction between day and night. To be precise, it was just a space similar to a grotto-heaven. It was far from the level of a "realm".
He did not know where the light in the Pseudo Realm came from. There seemed to be no concept of time here. Of course, it did not mean that time did not exist.
Gu Fei did not care about anything else. He tried his best to absorb the Spirit Qi from all directions and then smelted it into his body to make his vitality more vigorous. This was his life-saving measure. No one knew what dangers he would encounter if he tried to break the formation.
Since this formation could trap the Old Tortoise for so many years, it was obvious that the formation in the stone forest was not simple and had unfathomable power.
The Old Tortoise was a powerhouse that could open up a grotto-heaven. Gu Fei did not know how strong it was at its peak, but the person who could trap the Old Tortoise for thousands of years was definitely the most terrifying person in the world.
There was a slim chance of survival. Gu Fei wanted to obtain that slim chance of survival. Therefore, he had to do his homework beforehand. The more vigorous one's vitality, the higher the chance of survival.
Although a large amount of Spirit Qi had been absorbed, the grotto-heaven had become somewhat unstable. Strange sounds could be heard from the Chaotic Zone, but the area connected to the Chaotic Zone did not collapse.
A Pseudo Realm that had been refined by a powerful being would not completely collapse due to the loss of Spirit Qi.
After some time, the Old Tortoise tore the void and appeared next to the small lake. He looked at Gu Fei, who was sitting cross-legged on a rock, and said indifferently, "It's time. Wake up quickly."
This was a fluctuation that directly affected the mind. The Old Tortoise's words were directly transmitted to Gu Fei's mind. Even though he was in a deep meditative state, it could still wake him up.
The next moment, Gu Fei opened his eyes, stood up from the rock, and jumped down.
"Let's go!" The Old Tortoise did not say much. He tore the void apart and walked out of the Pseudo Realm. Gu Fei hurriedly followed. The Pseudo Realm was opened up by the Old Tortoise. The Old Tortoise was the absolute master of this grotto-heaven.
Therefore, he could directly tear the void apart and walk out of the Pseudo Realm.
The tortoise house was still as simple and crude as before. After the previous bombardment by the blood-colored thunderbolt, the tortoise house was not damaged at all. It was obvious that this extremely simple tortoise house was not simple at all.
Suddenly, a figure flashed through the pitch-black entrance of the tortoise house. A big tortoise walked out on two legs. Then, a figure also walked out of the tortoise house.
"Hmm! It's a dark and windy night. It's time to escape. "The Old Tortoise looked up at the sky. It was already nighttime, but there was not a single star in the sky.
The Old Tortoise retracted his gaze and pressed his right claw on the tortoise house. The tortoise house suddenly shook. In the midst of a rumbling sound, the tortoise house rose from the ground and rapidly shrank before being kept by the Old Tortoise.
"A Dharma treasure?" Upon seeing this, Gu Fei could not help but feel surprised. He never imagined that this inconspicuous stone tortoise shell was actually a treasure.
"Follow me!" After keeping the tortoise house, the Old Tortoise walked directly into the depths of the stone forest.
It was quiet all around. There was no sound at all. In the stone forest, everything seemed to have stopped. In the dark night, there was no wind, not even a trace of wind.
There were no sounds of insects in the surroundings. This kind of silence was very oppressive. It made people feel that this was the rare calm before a storm.
The Old Tortoise walked very carefully, and so did Gu Fei. He even followed the Old Tortoise's footprints as he moved forward. The places that the Old Tortoise had stepped on were absolutely safe.
Gradually, Gu Fei began to feel that something was wrong. There seemed to be great danger in the depths of the stone forest. The Old Tortoise's words were not false. If he wanted to break the formation, he would really die.
There was a force in the depths of the stone forest, and it could be said to be a kind of terrifying existence. If one did not carefully sense it, it might be difficult to detect. However, the more carefully one tried to sense it, the more one could not help but tremble.
The oppressive feeling coming from the depths of the stone forest was very uncomfortable. It was as if there was a mountain in his heart, and it was abnormally heavy.
