On the outside, Su Nan and Gu Zheng had been circling outside for seven days and found that all the passages were tightly blocked by the other side. As long as they dared to appear, they would definitely be discovered.
Su Nan had already noticed many hidden traps. As long as they were blocked by the other side for half a minute, a large number of reinforcements would come from the side.
This was the conclusion that the two of them came to after repeated observation.
"Cough cough, if I had known, I would have stayed in one place to heal. Then I wouldn't be in this state now." Gu Zheng and the two of them were now staying on a tree further outside.
At this time, Gu Zheng's face was ugly. A trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth along with coughing.
Now his situation was even more serious than before.
"Who would have thought that the other side's defense would be so tight. It seems that our movements have been discovered." Su Nan smiled bitterly and said, "Why don't we just wait here. Your injuries will worsen if you force yourself to stay here. Then you won't be able to break out."
"I know. Then let's wait." With that, Gu Zheng closed his eyes, swallowed the pill in his mouth and began to heal.
They had already been outside for too long. Seeing that they had wandered around until now, they still hadn't found any good opportunities. They could only wait quietly.
Time slowly passed by. The battle between the two sides was still ongoing.
This was already the twenty-third day of their battle. The Shura's attacks were each wave stronger than the previous one. They had never stopped.
On this side, a quarter of Jin Xian's puppets had been lost. The other four were fully replenishing their magic power. Now, only half of them could be used to attack. Their strength had decreased by a lot.
However, Elder Qin's side wasn't doing well either. Now, on their side, only a third of them could fight. A portion of them had already fainted due to overexertion. The others were fully recovering.
Even the magic treasures outside were much dimmer. Every one of them had a lot of damage.
The magic treasure gourd's exterior was full of scratches. The deepest part had a small hole, which was now blocked by the gourd's mouth.
The huge green sword was now broken in two. Its power had dropped from the strongest to the weakest. However, it was still playing its role outside. It was still cutting down the opponent's magic.
The sand in the picture scroll had decreased by half. The cloud of sand had also shrunk. At the edge of the picture scroll was a black burn mark.
The table-shaped Dharma treasure relied on its own sturdiness, and its current situation was the best. It was only missing two of its table legs, which did not hinder its power at all.
The battle between the two sides had reached its climax, and the recovery of both sides could no longer keep up with the consumption.
Seeing that the other party's Teleportation Formation was about to be completed, Ou Yangping became anxious.
Without sacrificing their lives, everyone redoubled their efforts in attacking.
Qin Chang Old Man and Old Woman were in a better state, but their magic treasures were about to collapse.
Moreover, the others could only grit their teeth and persevere. They didn't have any good ideas. However, this was a battle of life and death, so no one dared to lower their guard.
Due to all kinds of accidents, they were too big of a target and suffered too many unexpected attacks.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone could feel the primordial aura leaking out from above and desperately trying to maintain the light screen, they wouldn't have been able to hold on any longer.
Everyone understood that the teleportation formation had already connected to the other side, and they were only one step away. They absolutely could not fail here, and they all felt a wave of anger in their hearts.
Elder Qin's side repelled another surprise attack from the Asura. Several people fell down one after another. They were already exhausted.
A few people dragged them to the side and took away their weapons. There were still some scattered enemies outside, and they had to be eliminated before they got close to this place.
All of a sudden, everyone's hearts trembled. They felt that something was about to appear.
Subconsciously, everyone on both sides of the stone tower raised their heads to look at the red circle in the sky because the feeling in their hearts came from there.
They saw that the mists around the red circle had completely materialized and turned into blood-colored crystals. Countless red lights shot into the sky, and blood-like things kept flowing inside.
In the inner circle, little bits of red liquid began to close. In a very short period of time, a layer of blood-red water waves appeared there.
The surface of the water waves was like a monstrous tsunami. Streaks of blood-red lightning kept appearing from them, emitting a daunting aura.
At the same time, an aura from the primordial world leaked out from inside. Everyone could feel the aura that they hadn't felt for a long time.
More and more red clouds began to appear in the sky and slowly pressed down. However, they were blocked by the red lights that filled the sky and were stuck in the air, unable to move.
Everyone knew that the passage to the primordial world had been opened in advance. As long as they broke through the obstruction in the passage, they could return to the primordial world and escape from this place.
Many people originally thought that the test would be outside. This way, they could cheat and let others block it. Now, it seemed that there was no way to cheat. They had to fight for their last hope.
Everyone's faces were filled with helplessness and joy. They were happy because they could finally leave this hellish place.
They were helpless because most of them didn't have the strength to break through. Now was the time when everyone was at their weakest. Moreover, there was a pack of wolves outside, constantly wanting to tear off a piece of meat from their bodies.
They didn't have the chance or the time to recover their strength. Many people were confused when they thought of this. Were they going to fall in front of victory?
When the Old Man Qin Chang and the Old Woman saw the lightning above, they instantly recovered.
The two of them glanced at each other. After many years of tacit understanding, they immediately understood each other's intentions.
The two of them quickly waved their hands and the magic treasures in the water curtain disappeared.
As for the four magic treasures outside, their bodies began to glow and they quickly flew in all directions.
By the time the lights on their bodies disappeared, they realized that their wounds had disappeared, and their auras had returned to their peak.
On the other hand, the Asura people were attracted by the unusual phenomenon in the sky. They were still looking up and did not notice the movements over there at all.
When the four magic treasures were close to them, everyone sensed their frightening auras and came back to their senses.
'Oh no.'
Ou Yangping suddenly thought of something, but he didn't have time to give an order. He could only quickly set up a protective shield to cover the people nearby. As for the puppets, he really didn't have time to care about them.
To the Asura people's confusion, the four magic treasures went to the places where the most people were gathered.
All of a sudden, their bodies shone brightly, and an extremely dangerous aura was released from them.
The Asura people's faces changed. They seemed to have thought of something too. Without any hesitation, everyone activated their protective shields and fled into the distance.
Next, 4 enormous storms rose from 4 directions, and airwaves swept in all directions.
Elder Xiong was so shocked that he could not help but look over.
Most of the battles on Elder Xiong's side were intense, but there were only a few battles.
In one of the battles, a gray cloud hung in the sky and spun all the time, forming a huge vortex.
Inside the whirlpool, two silhouettes covered in silver and a pitch-black silhouette were fighting endlessly.
Violent auras kept coming out from the cloud, and everyone subconsciously stayed away from it.
This was the place where the horned dragon, Hei Yun, and the other 2 late-stage Golden Immortals were fighting. It was obvious that Hei Yun had the upper hand even though he was fighting 1 against 2.
Hei Yun's unique laughter kept coming out, but it was a little difficult for him to kill his opponent.
Not far from the vortex, a large red light curtain illuminated the entire sky. Below the red curtain, a few puppets that were covered in golden light kept summoning huge wind blades and sword-lights to attack their opponents. At the same time, a few figures kept wandering around at the outermost periphery, looking for an opportunity to give their enemies a fatal blow.
Opposite them, Daoist priest Si Nan and Liu Che formed a group to fight against their opponents.
Si Nan took out a horsetail whisk, and white light kept shooting out from the front to meet the hurricane.
Liu Che, on the other hand, took out a feather fan and kept waving it. Every time he fanned it out, two red and blue rays of light would meet the sword-lights on the other side.
Colorful lights kept bursting out in the air. Against the overwhelming number of puppets, they were not at a disadvantage at all.
Beside them, there were a few people looking around. From time to time, they would exchange blows with the rapidly advancing figures, repelling their opponents.
The last battle group was the early-stage Grand Luo. They did not gather together.
Because there were too many of them, they had to split up and fight while moving around.
Many of the Grand Luo had returned to their original form, and they were only at a slight disadvantage against their opponents. If they wanted to be defeated, it would probably take a long time.
Especially now that everyone knew that the teleportation formation had been opened, and they could escape at any time, they became calmer and more cautious. They did not give their opponents a chance to die together with them.
On the other hand, Xiong was fighting the Left and Right Protectors. However, the Left Protector was too focused on controlling the puppets, and could not unleash much of her strength.
Elder Xiong clearly felt at ease, but she had her own plans. She did not force her opponents, and only needed to make them unable to fight.
She only paid attention to the others and was ready to rescue them at any time.
When they were fighting separately, the despicable Left Protector played a trick and used the opponent's puppets to kill a few of them.
Elder Xiong, who was caught off guard, could not rescue them in time, and could only watch as they died.
Therefore, she changed her strategy, effectively stopping the opponent's trick.
They were not in a hurry. With their vision, they could naturally see the situation on the other side of the stone tower. They still had to cover for them for a while.
With their strength, they could shake off their enemies at any time and leave this world.
On the other side of the stone tower, a slightly injured human could not resist the temptation to leave even though he had not recovered half of his strength.
Without Elder Qin's permission, he entered the stone tower without permission. Soon, he appeared at the top and rushed through the passage.
The consequences were obvious. He entered with a shield, ignored the outside, and was forced to retreat through the passage.
Elder Qin opened a temporary exit and asked someone to bring him back.
A bird revealed its true form and flew up to bring him back, placing him at the side. At this time, he was already unconscious. Although he was not dead, he had no hope of leaving this place.
It would take at least a month for him to recover from his injuries and rush in again, and this was without considering any resources to speed up his recovery.
"Everyone, don't panic. Take advantage of the fact that the opponent is heavily injured and can't care about us. Everyone, try your best to recover your strength. I hope that everyone will listen to our orders. We will wait until you leave before we choose to leave," Elder Qin shouted loudly.
The previous person was a ready-made example. They knew that it was useless to be anxious. In addition, Elder Qin's promise calmed everyone's uneasy hearts.
With the temptation of being able to escape at any time, they did not know how many people could resist it. The human heart was unpredictable.
Elder Qin thought to himself. However, if they could leave in batches, then they would control them with violence. This was the most helpless method. He hoped that he would not have to go to that step.
The Qin couple quietly arrived at the entrance of the stone tower. There were only three ways to leave through the water curtain.
The first was to go up from the inside of the stone tower. There was a passage at the top that could be opened temporarily. However, one could only leave and not enter.
The second was to open a temporary exit that Elder Qin opened. However, it could only last for a short time and the number of times it could be used was limited.
The third was to break the water curtain. If the people inside worked together, they would be able to destroy it quickly from the inside. However, no idiot would do that.
Elder Qin looked around and pointed at an early stage Heaven Immortal. Because he had already recovered to his original state, he could definitely pass through.
That person came up from the stone tower in surprise. Under everyone's complicated gaze, that person successfully withstood the small electric arcs outside and entered the passage.
No one knew what he went through inside, nor did they know if he could successfully teleport out.
Every second that passed felt like a year to everyone. They kept thinking about what he went through.
After a few blinks of the eye, they saw a red light flash outside the red circle.
Although it was extremely short, everyone saw it. They all knew that that person was teleported out.
This greatly boosted everyone's confidence. Some people couldn't help but be excited. Hot tears filled their eyes. Especially the members of the valley. Who knew how many people had gone through so much and how many dangers.
Many of their brothers and friends could no longer see this scene. Their hearts were filled with boundless gratitude towards Elder Qin.
Without his hard work and management, many of them wouldn't have been able to reach this step. They could only be said to be the lucky ones.
Following this, Elder Qin would choose the person in the best state to go to the top and leave this place. This time, everyone started to desperately recover. They wanted to be the next person.
Especially now that the opponent hadn't attacked, they had to grasp this opportunity.
Going back a bit, when Elder Qin used four magic artefacts to defeat the opponent's Jin Xian puppet, Su Nan and Gu Zheng had already arrived at the place where the sound was the loudest.
When something strange happened between heaven and earth, the two of them were also shocked.
The two of them were stunned for a while. Their hearts shook at the same time. They knew that the transfer array was successfully established.
At the same time, they knew that a new situation had appeared on both sides. This was the best time.
"You're okay, right?" Su Nan and Gu Zheng ran into the distance together. After such a long time of recuperation, Gu Zheng's complexion was much better, but he was still weak.
"I'm fine. We're not fighting each other, so it doesn't matter." Gu Zheng took a deep breath. He felt that his lungs were still in pain, but he pretended not to care.
He knew that even after such a long time of treatment, his injuries had at most recovered by half. Perhaps it was because he hadn't been treated in time before, but as long as he didn't meet the enemy, everything would be fine.
Halfway through, the 2 of them witnessed the explosion of the four magic artefacts with their own eyes. If Su Nan hadn't supported Gu Zheng in time, the airwave would have blown Gu Zheng away. It was clear how weak he was now.
Nevertheless, they knew that this was the best opportunity. Even if they couldn't touch Su Nan, they had to carry Gu Zheng over. They were afraid that there wouldn't be such a good opportunity again.
Although the explosion was the fiercest at the side, the 2 of them didn't go there because it should be where Ouyang Ping was.
Fortunately, the last time they observed, the battle was fierce. Ouyang Ping didn't pay attention to the rear and didn't notice the 2 of them, but such a big thing happened, so he would definitely be on high alert.
They weren't confident that they could slip under his nose. Although they took a detour, it was safer.
Gu Zheng carefully checked the things on his body and put everything into the storage space.
However, there were 2 things that couldn't be put in. One was a small ball that was getting smaller and smaller, which was given to him by Brother Serpent. It used to be the size of a normal fruit, but now it had become half of its original size.
It was so gray that it couldn't be seen at his waist. He didn't know when it became like this.
There was also the bracelet given to him by the flame woman. He didn't have time to refine it, so he could only put it on his wrist.
After absorbing a lot of energy from the bracelet, it had now turned into a red pattern on his wrist, replacing the bracelet.
When they approached that place, Gu Zheng was ready to prevent other things from being damaged when passing through the passage.
Now, some broken limbs of puppets began to appear on the side, all of which were brought over by the airwaves.
Looking from here, the center of the explosion was completely empty. He didn't know how many Shura people had died, so he hoped that all of them were killed.
The 2 of them sneaked in through a group of puppets. Now there were puppets' bodies everywhere. They didn't protect themselves when the explosion happened, so their internal organs were directly shattered by the huge impact.
However, there were also puppets that didn't die occasionally. The 2 of them tried not to touch the puppets. It would be bad if the puppets didn't die completely and were sensed by others.
After going through a lot of hardships, the 2 of them finally saw the open space in front of them. The 2 of them finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they rushed over quickly, everything would be fine.
"Are you feeling very excited?" A voice suddenly sounded behind them, full of mockery, as if it had been watching them sneak over, but at the last moment, it destroyed the other party's hope.
