"Everyone, be careful."
They were surrounded by trees that covered the sky. They could not see the end of the trees.
It was eerie.
"Elder Sister Yun, earlier, we managed to obtain the Xuanyuan Sword in the first layer of the palace. That was how we were able to successfully leave and enter the second layer of the palace. Say, if we want to enter the third layer of the palace, do we need to obtain other treasures as well?"
How could Yun Xi not know what Long Ao meant?
She nodded.
Yun Xi thought for a while and said, "If what you said is true, it is true. But it is not easy to find treasures."
It was indeed difficult.
Yun Xi was very clear in her heart that if they did not have Long Ao's help by their side, not to mention arriving here smoothly, it was unknown whether they would be able to leave the first layer of the palace alive.
Long Ao knew that.
Treasures were only for those who were fated to get them.
Long Ao released his Primordial Spirit. He was confident in his nine-colored lotus Primordial Spirit. Since it could sense the Xuanyuan Sword, it might be able to sense other treasures too.
They continued on their way while sensing.
Until now, they had not seen Ye Han and Ling Ruoyi.
Where did these people go?
They were curious.
The entire forest was boundless. Even with their speed, they couldn't get out of it no matter how hard they tried.
Could it be a maze?
After a careful inspection, whether it was Yun Xi or Long Ao, they were very sure that this was definitely not a maze. Perhaps this forest was really big.
"Look, what is that?"
It was not far away.
A huge black vortex was wriggling slowly. It looked terrifying.
"Those are Blackpeak Ants. There must be tens of millions of them here."
The Blackpeak Ants were only the size of a fingernail.
It was strange.
Countless Blackpeak Ants were moving in a counterclockwise direction. It was like a huge circle that was spinning. Even Long Ao and the rest could not tell what was going on.
"Let's go around it."
Yun Xi and the rest did not want to create more trouble. They just wanted to get out of here and head to the third palace.
The inheritance of the Battle Emperor was right in front of them. As long as they could enter the third palace, they would have a high chance of successfully obtaining the inheritance of the Divine Emperor. As long as they could obtain the inheritance of the Battle Emperor, it would be of great significance to them and their families.
Long Ao stood still as he stared at the Blackpeak Ant whirlpool in front of him.
"Long Ao, what are you doing?"
Yun Xi asked curiously when she saw that Long Ao was not moving. Could it be that there was something wrong with the Blackpeak Ant Vortex? However, no matter how she looked at it, she could not find anything wrong with it.
Long Ao didn't say anything. He just stared at her.
Seeing that Long Ao did not speak, Yun Lu seemed to want to ask something but was stopped by Yun Xi.
"Long Ao must have discovered something. Let's not disturb him. Let him slowly look and think."
Yun Lu and the rest were very surprised. Along the way, Yun Xi seemed to have an indescribable feeling towards Long Ao. She listened to everything Long Ao said. Even if Long Ao was wrong, Yun Xi would probably listen to him.
Could it be that Yun Xi liked Long Ao?
It was basically impossible for such a nonsensical matter to happen.
Everyone was very clear about the difference in status between Long Ao and Yun Xi. Not to mention strength, Yun Xi was the precious daughter of the Yun Family Patriarch. She was extremely talented and had the highest chance of becoming a Mid-God. On the other hand, Long Ao was only from a starry sky. Even if his talent was alright, he was still not qualified to be compared to Yun Xi.
They were just making wild guesses.
Time ticked by.
About a few hours later.
Long Ao said in surprise, "Just as I thought, just as I thought."
"Long Ao, what's going on?" Seeing Long Ao's surprised look, Yun Xi shook her head helplessly and asked with a smile. Even Yun Xi herself did not realize that her attitude towards Long Ao was obviously different from before.
If it was before, Yun Xi would definitely say that she was taking care of Long Ao for Qian 'er's sake. But now, ever since they entered the first palace, Yun Xi had not said such words.
"Sister Yun, I just noticed that something was wrong with the Blackpeak Ant Whirlpool. I have been observing it carefully and finally found the pattern. If I'm not wrong, there must be a treasure left behind by Senior Xuanyuan in the Blackpeak Ant Whirlpool. It's also an important treasure that can help us leave the second palace."
"Really?"
Not only Yun Xi, but even Yun Lu and the rest were looking at the Blackpeak Ant Whirlpool in surprise. If that was the case, then this was really a blessing in disguise.
Emperor Yun and the rest were also pleasantly surprised. Originally, they had brought Long Ao along to let Long Ao broaden his horizons. After all, Long Ao was Qian 'er's sweetheart and could be considered half a member of the Yun Family in the future.
But they never expected that Long Ao would not only not burden them, but also help them in every way. If it was not for Long Ao, they would not have been able to reach this place, let alone enter the third palace.
"Long Ao, what should we do?" Yun Xi was not a fool. Even if she knew that there was a treasure in the Blackpeak Ant vortex in front of her, and it was a treasure that could help them go to the third palace, she did not dare to act rashly. Just like the Xuanyuan Sword from before, the strength of the three of them was far above Long Ao, but none of them could get close to the Xuanyuan Sword, except for Long Ao.
As the saying goes, treasures belong to those who are fated to obtain them.
"I'll go." Yun He could not wait any longer. Although they had relied on Long Ao to reach this place, Long Ao had obtained the Xuanyuan Sword. Yun He could not stand it anymore. If he could obtain Xuanyuan Bubai's treasure, he could bring it back to his family and be heavily nurtured by his family.
"No."
Without giving Emperor Yun and Yun Xi a chance to speak, Yun He took a big stride forward and dashed out at an extremely fast speed. From the beginning to the end, Long Ao did not say a word. How could he not know what Yun He meant? Not only Yun He, but even Yun Tian, who was beside him, could not wait any longer and dashed out as well.
Yun Xi, Emperor Yun, and Yun Lu's faces were extremely gloomy. They had never expected that the two who were usually so respectful and obedient would suddenly behave like this. They were like two mad lions that could not hold back at all.
Although they understood what the two were thinking, it also depended on the time. In the face of the family's interests, personal matters were almost negligible.
Seeing the two madly rushing towards the Blackpeak Ant Whirlpool, Long Ao shook his head helplessly and said, "They're dead for sure."
Ah?
Hearing Long Ao's words, the three of them were shocked. Before the three of them could ask what to do, two miserable screams came from not far away.
