"Everyone, spread out quickly. We'll form a team and fight together." Su Nan, Pan Xuan, and all the other Jin Xian peak cultivators could tell that they couldn't stay together. That way, the pressure would be greater.
If they relied on a group of people to deal with a meteor, the people behind would take advantage of the cover and fall further. That would be a huge waste of energy.
It was better to spread out and deal with the meteors in pairs. It would be easier and the others could help each other.
Waves of energy, lightning, and fire dragons kept intercepting the meteors in mid-air.
The meteors in the sky exploded one after another. In an instant, countless small meteors fell from the sky.
These small meteors didn't cause much damage. Basically, everyone could ignore them with their shields.
After the Jin Xian peak cultivators destroyed the meteors facing them, they started to help the others. Occasionally, some meteors would fall to the ground, but they were all dodged.
The meteors smashed into the ground and ignited huge flames, making the space even more crowded.
A Shura man looked at the meteors above him. He was stuck in a corner. In front of him was the flames and above him was the meteors.
The Shura man didn't even think and rushed into the flames with his shield. Compared to the huge meteors, the flames didn't seem to be much of a threat.
But the moment he entered, he let out a loud scream. After a breath, the scream stopped.
"This is the Star Fire. Don't touch it without a special Dharma treasure. It can burn your soul." Su Nan noticed the situation and warned loudly.
Fortunately, the shield didn't block the transmission of sound. But the others also saw that the man didn't come out. They knew how scary the flames were and spread the word. Everyone stayed away from the flames.
He also had flames falling from his side, but he froze them immediately. They didn't cause much damage.
On the other hand, Pan Xuan took out her scroll and directly sucked in the flames.
Ding Xiao also took out his own method. He fused his scimitar and spun it towards the flames. Everything in its path was cut into two and slowly extinguished. The scimitar wasn't damaged at all.
In the battle with the Crow Messenger, Ji Yi's weapon was almost damaged, but his was intact. It was obvious that his weapon was extraordinary.
When this wave of meteor shower was over, except for one unlucky guy who died, the others were more or less in a sorry state, but it was not a big problem.
At this time, everyone suddenly realized that the barrier had disappeared. Everyone gathered together again.
"This should be the black curtain in the sky. It looks like they are prepared for our arrival," a Shura said worriedly.
"I believe that even if they are prepared, they don't have too many resources. For example, no one is controlling this array diagram. Otherwise, how could we be so relaxed?" Pan Xuan had already seen that this place was operating according to predetermined procedures. It was very rigid.
He told her what had happened just now.
This was because she had discovered that when a group of people were defending against the meteors, one of them had barely managed to shatter the meteor in front of him. Only then did he discover that behind him, another meteor had appeared in front of him.
At that time, they were a little exhausted and could not use their strength to resist. However, no one could tell, so they could only wait for death.
Unfortunately, because they were half-lying on the ground, a peak Asura who didn't see them accidentally kicked one of them in the chest when he went to save others.
Although the peak Asura noticed in time that something was wrong and had already controlled his strength, he still kicked him far away.
And that meteor actually flew with him because its target was him, even if it could smash one of the Shura to death if it fell.
It pretended not to see it and targeted that person. In the end, it was destroyed in mid-air.
The two Shuras managed to escape death by the skin of their teeth.
"So what we need to do now is to find a way to break out of here," Su Nan said. "But I didn't find the array's core just now. I don't know how to get out."
"I'm also trying to find it, but I didn't find it either. The other party hid too well. Maybe we need to use brute force to break it." Ding Xiao held his two scimitars and rubbed them back and forth, making an ear-piercing sound.
"Ding Xiao, put down your weapon. It's a little ear-piercing. Can't you see that some people are suffering?" Pan Xuan reprimanded him without holding back.
Ding Xiao looked and saw that some people had already subconsciously covered their ears. Only then did he put away his weapon.
"Then what should we do? Everything around here has been sealed. Even if we fly, we can't fly up." One person came back and said after searching around.
"Wait. The scale of the previous attack doesn't look like it will end soon. There must be something else. Hurry up and take the pills. Everyone, be careful." Pan Xuan said with certainty.
In this place, it could be said that her opinion was the most important.
At this time, some of the ground was burned into potholes. There were still some flames burning, but the fire was slowly weakening. It looked like it would be extinguished soon.
Everyone quieted down and looked around vigilantly.
"Look, the ground is collapsing." An Shura who had been looking at the flames curiously suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone followed his gaze and looked over. On the flames that were about to go out, they could clearly see a transparent thing falling down.
It splashed a little in the liquid below.
"Don't you feel that the liquid below has risen a lot?" Only then did someone notice what was below. "And it seems like the liquid below is starting to go berserk.
"Yeah, I feel like I'm about to explode." Everyone looked down at their feet.
"Everyone, be careful. It's very likely that the next attack is below," Pan Xuan hurriedly shouted.
Some people also guessed this, but the process was slow. It was like boiling a frog in warm water.
If it appeared at the moment the meteor shower ended, it would cause a lot of damage.
It was really too difficult to control from inside the tower. At this time, Madam Qin felt that with the interference of the outside world, this situation was even more difficult than she had imagined.
From the beginning, her connection with the outside world had been intermittent. Fortunately, once the formation was activated, it would automatically suck the target into her body.
However, after the first stage was completed, the second stage of the explosion couldn't be triggered no matter what.
Madam Qin suspected that the light barrier was also partially blocking it. After all, it could block any divine sense and divine sense. Plus, it was set up by Elder Xiong.
Even Elder Xiong probably didn't think of this.
When she felt that she couldn't control the second stage, Madam Qin directly activated the third stage of the formation.
When the water below began to flow faster and faster, some of it had already reached the top.
At this time, the Shura were already prepared.
The original sequence was that as soon as they entered, they would be bombarded by a sky full of meteors. Then, the fragments left behind by the meteors would all explode and blow up the stratum corneum below.
The explosion could easily blow up, and the people above would quickly fall into the roaring water.
Just these three simple changes were enough to cause a lot of casualties.
However, no matter what, the turbulent liquid still broke through the stratum corneum beneath their feet. Without exception, all of them rushed into the liquid.
Since they were already prepared, they didn't panic. However, the speed of the water's impact still shocked them.
This silver-white water felt similar to the clear water outside, but once it fell into the water, the water would corrode.
The silver-white water would directly corrode the insides of the body. Even if you had a protective shield, it would still seep in.
Once it stuck to your body, it would directly merge into your body. You would feel that your control over your magic power had weakened.
In addition, everyone had to resist the pressure of the liquid in this endless rotation. Soon, a few Shura silently sank and didn't get up again.
In here, everyone could only rely on themselves. No one could help anyone else.
The water carried everyone to an unknown place. In just a short while, many people felt that a year had passed.
Pan Xuan kept trying to stick her head out, but the outer layer of the water was very strange. The more she tried to get out, the faster the water would penetrate.
It seemed that the pressure there was even stronger.
Instead, the closer to the center, the smaller the pressure. Many Shura tried but couldn't get out. They all resisted the invasion in the center.
However, Pan Xuan knew that this was a trap. If you didn't get out soon, you would lose control of your immortal energy and drown.
However, it was hard to control your body in the water. Soon, the water's fluctuations were stronger. In addition, there was a constant rotation. If you weren't careful, all your previous efforts would be wasted. It was easy to be pushed back again.
During this time, Pan Xuan saw many people think of this problem. They also struggled to climb out, wanting to pass through this barrier.
However, even more people failed. Pan Xuan didn't see any familiar companions. She could only struggle forward.
However, Pan Xuan's explosive power was still not enough. Every time, she felt that she was just a little bit away from successfully breaking through.
The more it was like this, the more Pan Xuan refused to admit defeat. The more she wanted to break through.
However, Pan Xuan gradually felt tired. Unknowingly, her body had been immersed in the silver liquid.
This liquid was in the key parts of her body, hindering the circulation of her magic power. At the same time, she felt weak.
Pan Xuan floated in the water in a daze. She felt helpless.
If Gu Zheng was here, breaking through this barrier wouldn't be a problem. Pan Xuan thought.
She unconsciously placed her hand on her chest. There was the necklace that Gu Zheng gave her.
A warm feeling appeared in her hand. In the next moment, the water swirled rapidly again. Pan Xuan instinctively activated the protection of the necklace.
A gentle barrier appeared on Pan Xuan's body. All the water was blocked outside.
Pan Xuan was surprised to find that although she was still moving with the water, all the fluctuations of the water were blocked outside. It didn't affect her at all. Moreover, the silver liquid couldn't pass through here.
"Good chance." Pan Xuan thought about how she couldn't break through the water's interference. If she could stay inside the barrier, she could definitely go up.
Thinking of this, Pan Xuan immediately moved. She swam up again.
"Splash!"
This time, Pan Xuan finally came out with the help of the necklace. At this time, she couldn't feel the water's interference at all.
Only then did she realize that she was now in a wide cave. The water carried them forward quickly. Beside them was a passage that was wide enough for two people.
However, most of the passage was blocked by the yellow rock walls. Only occasionally, there would be a gap.
Looking at the right time, Pan Xuan jumped and landed directly at a gap.
"Be careful." Accompanied by a familiar voice, she found that something was broken beside her ear.
Pan Xuan quickly looked. It turned out to be a palm-sized silver spider. Now, it was broken into several pieces on the ground.
"Thank you, Su Nan." The person who reminded her and helped her was actually Su Nan.
"You forgot our friendly agreement. Maybe I'll have to thank you next time." Su Nan walked over from behind. "I thought you came in the morning."
"No, I was delayed by some things." Pan Xuan was embarrassed to say that she almost couldn't come up.
"Well, I've been wandering around for a while. The others have already come up. Just now, I met Ding Xiao. Previously, he seemed to have broken a mechanism. Now that the speed of the water has slowed down, there should be other switches. Let's look for them together." Su Nan invited Pan Xuan.
"Okay." Pan Xuan agreed without thinking. The two of them began to walk along the narrow passage.
From time to time, they would pay attention to some small spiders. They were very fragile, but the silk they spat out lacked something difficult to deal with. It had the same effect as the silver water droplet, but was tougher.
There were many passages here. Moreover, they couldn't fly here. Pan Xuan and Su Nan even reached a dead end. They had no choice but to jump into the river again and find another gap.
This time, Pan Xuan obviously felt that the pressure of the river had decreased a lot. Even if she didn't rely on the shield, she could still get out. It seemed that someone had found another mechanism and closed it.
While they were still searching, they suddenly felt the cave shake. The water level of the river was dropping.
"What's going on? Did someone completely solve it?" Su Nan asked in confusion. The two of them stood on the surface.
"I'm not sure. The water seems to be flowing to another place." Pan Xuan couldn't figure it out either. Apart from walking around and killing many silver spiders, they didn't find anything else.
Suddenly, a head popped out of the water and shouted at them, "Miss Pan, Young Master Su, come down quickly. The exit below is now closed. It'll be too late if you're late."
Then, it dived back in and disappeared. He still needed to see if anyone had fallen outside to inform them. He had already seen a few Shura people run up to the surface when the bindings in the water disappeared.
They didn't know that there was an exit below. If they couldn't get out, who knew what would happen if they stayed here?
Su Nan and Pan Xuan jumped down without hesitation.
In the water, they could clearly feel a suction force pulling them down. Moreover, the water wasn't flowing. It was like stagnant water.
They dived down a little and found that there was a hole that was a few people wide. The suction force was coming from a whirlpool on it.
Now, one-third of the hole was closed. A horizontal plate was moving horizontally at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was like a celestial dog eating the moon. If they didn't hurry, they would be trapped here in the end.
The two of them swam towards the hole. When they got close to the whirlpool, their bodies suddenly stopped. They were sucked in without any resistance.
Su Nan only felt her body tighten, and then there was nothing under her feet. She felt that she was falling directly from the sky along with the water flow. Fortunately, there was no accident with her body. She directly slowed down in the air after rushing out of the water flow and looked at the new world.
This was a huge space. Water kept flowing out of the stone wall above her head like a small waterfall. Moreover, there was more water in other places. It flowed underground and merged with the ground.
From time to time, her clansmen would rush out. Now, there were many Shura people below. They were at the side where there was no water. They were taking the time to expel the silver liquid from their bodies.
There were stone walls on three sides. However, not far in front of them, there was a huge light spot. Each light spot was dozens of feet wide. Now, it was flickering rhythmically as if it was breathing.
"Su Nan, here."
Su Nan heard someone calling her. She looked in the direction of the voice and found that Pan Xuan was already with a group of peak experts. She was waving at her, indicating that she should come over.
Su Nan's body swayed and she rushed down.
"What's wrong? Is there something new?" Su Nan was puzzled. There didn't seem to be any restrictions here. She found that they seemed to be on a huge platform.
"Dong Wei found something just now. Let him tell you." Pan Xuan pointed at a person. Su Nan realized that this person's cultivation was only at the late stage of Jin Xian.
"I'm very interested in the stars in the sky. So, I've been doing a lot of research outside. I'm venting some things over there." He pointed at the stars in front of them.
"Did you find the exit to break the array?" Su Nan blurted out.
"You can say yes, and you can say no." He nodded, then shook his head. "If we destroy those tens of thousands of stars, the array will naturally be broken. But those stars are really arranged according to a certain path."
"Every star is connected to the ones around it. Dealing with one star is actually fighting against hundreds of stars at the same time. With our strength, it's very difficult to break through their outer defense." His expression was a little ugly. "Also, I found that those stars are beginning to pulse regularly. If I'm not wrong, they will soon turn into something terrifying."
"In that case, the biggest test is coming. We have to work together. I believe that we can definitely get through this. The protectors will definitely find something wrong and help us. No matter what, we have to hold on," Pan Xuan said from the side.
Originally, they wanted to catch the enemy off guard. They didn't expect the enemy to be prepared and counterattacked, causing them to suffer a great loss.
Now, a few of their clansmen had died here. One had to know that they were all carefully selected. Every one of them was an elite and was loyal to the Asura.
Especially now that there were so few of them, it was a pity.
"Don't worry. We will definitely succeed in breaking through here." Ding Xiao said while holding the weapon in her hand.
