"Pu!" Pi Muer fell heavily to the ground.
Fortunately, his body was strong enough to allow him to quickly get up and look around.
He was in a huge square and there were many people on the square. Everyone in the Outer Tomb's underground palace was gathered here but no one chose to leave.
"Another one. Great, now everyone is here!"
Tian Xuanzi's voice came from the side. Instead of being shocked, Pi Muer was overjoyed. He looked at Tian Xuanzi happily and asked, "Senior, have you seen my boss?"
"Your boss? Who … Uh, he came in too? "
Tian Xuanzi asked in confusion. Then, he realized that Pi Muer was talking about Ding Yu and asked in surprise.
"Yeah, he came in with me but we got separated after we came in. There seems to be a magical power here that can send people to different places."
Pi Muer said seriously.
"Haha, a magical power that can separate people? I think your coward boss thought that you were a hindrance so he left you behind!"
Seeing that Ding Yu was not around, Lu Zhu said with a mocking tone.
Yan Tong, on the other hand, sneered coldly. Clearly, he was on the same side as Lu Zhu.
Jiang Wuhui looked at Tian Xuanzi awkwardly and he looked at Tian Xuanzi for help.
He knew Tian Xuanzi but Yan Tong and Lu Zhu didn't. He wanted to greet them and tell them who Tian Xuanzi was but Tian Xuanzi told him to pretend not to know him.
Now, Yan Tong and Lu Zhu started to provoke him again. While he was angry at his two companions for being rude, he couldn't help but worry about Tian Xuanzi's attitude.
"Impossible! My boss is not a coward!"
Pi Muer regarded Ding Ning as a god, so how could he tolerate their mockery? With a flushed face, he said angrily, "You are defeated by my boss. My boss beat you so badly that you don't even dare to fart. You only dare to make sarcastic remarks behind my back. Humph, cowards who bully the weak and fear the strong!"
"You are courting death!"
Yan Tong could endure it, but Green Bamboo couldn't. Pi Muer had exposed the dark side of her heart, and she immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation. Her body moved like lightning, and she fiercely slapped Pi Muer's head. This slap contained her anger, and if it landed, it would definitely smash Pi Muer's brain out.
Jiang Wuhui's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly shouted, "Stop!"
Yan Tong had a cold smile on his face. He did not care about Pi Muer's life or death at all.
He was a very shrewd person. He could not wait for Green Bamboo to offend Ding Ning so that the black-masked man would kill her in anger. At that time, the Pure Land of Sanskrit would never let that b * stard go, and it could be considered as his revenge.
Tian Xuanzi glanced over at Green Bamboo but didn't do anything. Instead, his eyes were filled with pity.
"Pi!"
Just as Pi Mu Er was about to lose all hope and close his eyes to await his death, he suddenly heard a scream. When he opened his eyes to look, he discovered that Green Bamboo had been struck by lightning. Her beautiful hair had turned into an afro, and her face was as black as ink. Her entire body was twitching incessantly, and there was even a faint blue light flashing around her. There was even a faint smell of barbecued meat.
"Idiot, you still dare to make a move here? Didn't you see that someone tried to make a move just now and was turned into charcoal?"
A man dressed like an ordinary person who was watching the scene not far away gloated.
Yan Tong's face turned livid as if he had eaten sh * t, but in his heart, he was very glad that it was Green Bamboo who did it, not him. Otherwise, it would be him who would be struck by lightning.
The three of them had just been sucked in, so how would they know that they would be struck by lightning if they made a move here? Jiang Wuhui suddenly realized why Tian Xuanzi didn't even stop them. It turned out that he also knew that he would be struck by lightning if he made a move.
Although Green Bamboo was quite scheming and had repeatedly stirred up trouble in an overbearing manner, which made him dislike her, as a disciple of the Holy-sword Villa who was on good terms with the Pure Land of Sanskrit, he naturally couldn't really watch her die. He hurriedly took out a green pill and stuffed it into her mouth with a pained expression.
Moments later, Green Bamboo slowly woke up with a frightened look on her face. She no longer dared to make trouble. After thanking Jiang Wuhui, she sat cross-legged with her eyes closed and began to remove the lightning to heal herself.
Although the lightning didn't seem to be very powerful, it could constantly hurt the internal organs of a martial artist inside the body. If it weren't for Jiang Wuhui who took out the life-saving medicine to save her and stimulate her vitality so that she could circulate her True Qi to remove the lightning power by force, she would have died this time.
Only then did Pi Muer realize that he couldn't make a move here. Immediately, he laughed complacently. "Bitch, come and kill me!"
"Enough! That's enough! Don't bring trouble to yourself!"
Yan Tong was in a very bad mood. Seeing Pi Muer's smug face, he immediately shouted angrily.
"What? You also want to make a move? Come on, son of a b * tch! If you don't dare to make a move, then shut the f * ck up! If you want to kill me, you are still not strong enough! "
Pi Muer had long been displeased with Yan Tong. Seeing that he came to make trouble for him, he wouldn't be polite anymore. He scolded him loudly, which made Yan Tong tremble in anger, but he still didn't dare to make a move.
Ding Ning, who was invisible, was secretly amused. He didn't expect that Pi Muer would seek revenge for the smallest grievance, but he liked it.
If it weren't for the sudden lightning, he would definitely make a move to save Pi Muer. However, that would expose his trace, and he wouldn't be able to secretly observe the development of the situation and deal with it calmly.
So, for Green Bamboo, who almost made him expose himself, he didn't have the slightest pity or sympathy. He didn't know why, from the moment he saw Yan Tong and Green Bamboo, he had an indescribable sense of disgust, so he was not polite to them at all.
Not interested in seeing Yan Tong's twisted and resentful face, Ding Ning carefully looked around. This was a huge square with a rough style, and the ground was paved with white and gray rocks.
The square was very spacious. Except for a towering human-shaped stone statue whose head couldn't be seen, there were no other buildings. He tried his best to look into the distance, but he couldn't see the end. All he could see was a gray expanse. Thousands of people gathered under the statue were as small as a drop of water in the sea, which showed how huge the square was.
Ding Ning was surprised, he didn't know why these people gathered under the statue obediently and didn't explore further.
Although he wanted to explore, he couldn't help but feel that there was something strange about this place. Just to be safe, he decided to take a look first.
Fortunately, Pi Muer asked Tian Xuanzi in time, "Old god, why is everyone gathered under the statue? Why aren't they looking further away?"
"It's not that no one wants to look, but they can't."
Tian Xuanzi's face turned serious, "Don't be fooled by the fact that this square doesn't seem to have any restrictions, but in fact, you can't go more than a thousand feet away from the statue."
"Huh? Why? "
Pi Muer asked in surprise.
"It's not like you didn't see the lightning just now. That level of lightning is just child's play."
Tian Xuanzi was quite friendly towards Pi Muer, he answered every question, "As long as someone goes more than a thousand feet away from the statue, they will be struck by lightning that is a thousand times stronger than the one before. Those who came in earlier didn't know about this and left the area without permission. Now, they are all dead."
Pi Muer's body shuddered, his face was filled with fear. The lightning just now almost killed Green Bamboo. Just thinking about the lightning that was a thousand times stronger than that sent chills down his spine. With a bitter face, he said, "So, we are trapped here?"
"Yes, what else? Sigh, let's hope that brat didn't come in. If I die, he can at least help me take care of my daughter!"
Tian Xuanzi was also a hero at this moment, his eyes flashed with helplessness.
"It's over, it's over, boss came in with me."
Pi Muer sat down on the ground in frustration, he mumbled in despair.
Ding Ning couldn't care less about his feelings anymore, his eyes flashed as he thought about it. A thousand feet away from the statue and he would be struck to death by the lightning. Was this some kind of array formation or was there someone controlling everything in the dark?
"Don't be so pessimistic, there is always a way out. I don't believe that they let so many people in just to trap us here. Let's wait and see, there will definitely be a way out."
Looking at Pi Muer's dejected expression, Tian Xuanzi couldn't help but console him.
Pi Muer forced a smile and said worriedly, "I'm just a lowly person, it doesn't matter if I die. I'm just worried about boss, it will be such a shame if he also dies here."
"You're quite loyal, little fellow."
Tian Xuanzi couldn't help but praise Pi Muer when he saw that Pi Muer was still worried about Ding Ning.
Pi Muer scratched his head embarrassedly and with a bitter face, he said, "Actually, I'm quite conflicted. I hope that boss can come, but I also hope that he will never come in."
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Perhaps it was because waiting for death here was not a good feeling, Tian Xuanzi wanted to use a conversation to distract himself from the fear of death.
"I don't want boss to come in because it's too dangerous here and I'm worried that boss will die; I want boss to come because I feel that boss might be able to help us find a way out of this predicament."
Pi Muer seemed to feel that he had placed too much hope on Ding Ning and he said in embarrassment.
Tian Xuanzi nodded in agreement and said seriously, "That's true. Although your boss's cultivation level is not as high as mine, he is not as handsome as me, and he is not as charming as me, he knows a lot of strange things and has always been lucky. If he comes, he might really be able to find a way out of this predicament."
Pi Muer rolled his eyes speechlessly, this old thing is really shameless, I can't be bothered with him anymore.
Ding Ning's mouth twitched, this old man is still as narcissistic as ever! He couldn't be bothered to look at Tian Xuanzi's boastful face, he focused his attention on the huge statue.
There was only one building in this huge square, the key to escape must be on this statue.
Ding Ning was not the only one who realized this. At this moment, there were many people around the statue studying it, but most of them were just there to make up the numbers. They were confused and did not know what was going on. The King of Vajra seemed to know that he knew nothing about these things. He and Rachel occupied a corner and closed their eyes to heal.
Only a few people seemed to have realized something, they were frowning and thinking hard.
What surprised Ding Ning was that Zhu Gu, who had disappeared since they entered this place, was also among these people.
But at this moment, Ding Ning had no intention to find trouble with him. Even if he wanted to kill him, he would have to wait until they were out of this predicament. Otherwise, they would all die here. What's the point of killing him now, it would only expose his whereabouts.
Other than Zhu Gu, the only one who obviously gained something was the ordinary looking mercenary. Ruhr and the other mercenaries crowded around her and looked at her eagerly.
It seemed like they had placed a lot of hope on her.
Other than the two of them, there were three other people who attracted Ding Ning's attention.
One of them was a white-haired old man who looked like an ordinary person; the other was a middle-aged Chinese Taoist priest who was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a horsetail whisk; and the last one was a beautiful Chinese middle-aged woman who was wearing a professional suit.
