It was late at night. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. There was a gentle breeze, and the flowers and trees nearby were swaying gently in the breeze.
There was a problem.
Since there was wind, why couldn't he feel it at all?
After the battle with the lizard, he had completely retracted the spiritual energy barrier. The Lingyun Cave was thousands of feet above the ground. As the saying goes, it's cold at the top. The wind should be several times stronger than on the ground. How could there be no wind?!
Ye Fan thought to himself as he vigilantly surveyed his surroundings.
Fujiwara No Chiko, who was lying in Ye Fan's arms, saw that Ye Fan suddenly stopped and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"Shh!" Ye Fan motioned for Fujiwara No Chiko to keep quiet as he continued to observe.
It wasn't just his current position. Within a hundred feet of the Lingyun Cave, it was completely silent. There wasn't even a trace of wind!
"Something's wrong!" Ye Fan said as he quickly mobilized the spiritual energy in his body. He quickly flew backward, and a shadow flew back to the entrance of the Lingyun Cave!
After the two of them landed at the entrance, Ye Fan put down Fujiwara No Chiko, who looked puzzled. He frowned and looked at the sky.
Fujiwara No Chiko knew that Ye Fan had discovered something and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong?"
"Come and see." Ye Fan, who was frowning, reached out and sucked at the ground. A piece of broken bluestone the size of a pigeon egg immediately flew into his hand. Then, Ye Fan bent his middle finger slightly and flicked it gently. With a swoosh, the broken bluestone flew straight into the sky!
"Bang …" Just as Fujiwara Chiko's face was filled with confusion, the piece of green stone that flew into the air seemed to have hit something. With a bang, it turned into fine powder and slowly dissipated like a puff of green smoke!
"There's a barrier!" Fujiwara No Chiko exclaimed!
Ye Fan nodded with a serious expression on his face.
No matter how hard he tried, he was still one step too late. The two of them were already trapped by this barrier! A person who could lay down such a huge barrier was definitely not an ordinary person. It seemed that a fierce battle was waiting for him this time!
Shua! With that thought in mind, Ye Fan flipped his palm and struck the barrier high up in the sky! A translucent palm shadow suddenly shot out from Ye Fan's hand and soared into the sky!
Ye Fan had used less than ten percent of his spiritual energy in this attack. He wanted to test how strong the barrier was.
"Boom!" A huge sound rang out, lingering in the ears and lingering in the air!
When Ye Fan's palm came into contact with the barrier, it was as if it had come into contact with an extremely elastic rubber ball. It quickly rebounded, and the air buzzed from the force of the rebound, causing the air to disperse in all directions!
He was indeed an expert! Ye Fan frowned slightly. This barrier was definitely not ordinary. It was both firm and flexible, completely different from ordinary barriers. Brute force alone could not easily break it!
"Quagmire Barrier!" Fujiwara No Chiko exclaimed softly after seeing this scene!
"Quagmire Barrier?" Ye Fan looked at Fujiwara No Chiko. This was the first time he had heard of such a barrier.
"It's one of Japan's secret techniques," Fujiwara No Chiko said worriedly. "I've heard my master mention this secret technique before. Once it's set up, ordinary methods can't break it at all. It's like a quagmire. The more you exert force, the deeper you sink. There's no point to exert force."
"Is there a way to break it?" Ye Fan asked.
"Yes," Fujiwara No Chiko nodded at Ye Fan and said, "Your cold air is the nemesis of this Quagmire Barrier!"
"Then let me try." As Ye Fan spoke, he pulled out the Snake Shadow Sword from his waist. Then, he waved it at the transparent barrier in the air!
Ye Fan waved his sword so quickly that even Fujiwara No Chiko, who was very close to him, couldn't clearly see how he moved.
Swoosh! A dazzling white arc of light that was ten feet long was instantly emitted from the Snake Shadow Sword. It cut through the air like a shooting star, hissing as it flew high into the sky! Ye Fan's strength was no longer the same as before. Any casual move of his was shockingly powerful.
"Boom!" The distance of several hundred feet was covered in an instant. The white arc of light directly rushed into the barrier!
"Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack …" The Snake Shadow Sword emitted an extremely cold Qi that quickly spread out in all directions within the barrier. The previously completely transparent barrier began to freeze and spread rapidly. In the blink of an eye, a gigantic, crystalline ice wall that was over a hundred zhang in radius shockingly appeared in the sky! Under the illumination of the stars in the sky, it sparkled and looked extremely beautiful!
"Take advantage of this opportunity to break this barrier!" Fujiwara No Chiko said to Ye Fan.
"Alright." Ye Fan spoke as he waved the Snake Shadow Sword in his hand again!
Shua! A white arc of light once again whizzed towards the gigantic ice wall in the air!
"Boom … Kacha … Huala …" After the gigantic ice wall was violently attacked, it instantly shattered into countless ice shards of different sizes, raining down from the sky like a torrential rain!
"Shua!" Ye Fan flicked his sleeves, and an invisible air wall instantly appeared in front of the two of them. The countless ice shards that fell rapidly upon contact with the air wall instantly turned into a crystal clear ice fog!
"Hu …" After a huge hole was broken in the barrier, the air inside and outside could circulate freely. The husband and wife could feel the wind blowing in from the outside.
"Aiyaya, I was wondering why Da Xiong was no match for you. It turns out that you have a treasure in your hands." Outside the barrier, a low voice drifted into the husband and wife's ears along with the wind blowing in.
It was a man's voice, speaking slightly stiff Chinese.
Ye Fan stood there calmly and did not speak. Instead, he carefully observed the movements around him. Countless combat experience told him that the strength of the expert who came this time was probably not below his own. The reason was very simple. Even with his keen hearing, he could not identify the opponent's location.
"Chiko, you go in first." Ye Fan looked around and said to Fujiwara No Chiko beside him, "As usual, no one is allowed to open the door."
"But you are alone …"
"Be good." Ye Fan interrupted Fujiwara No Chiko's words. "Go in and wait for me."
"Okay." Seeing that Ye Fan had made up his mind, Fujiwara No Chiko had no choice but to agree. "Be careful." She said as she turned around and walked to the stone door.
With a rumble, the stone door opened.
"Chiko." Ye Fan turned to Fujiwara No Chiko, who was stepping into the cave, and said tenderly, "No matter what happens in the future, you have to live well. Do you understand?"
Fujiwara No Chiko, who had already entered the cave, was shocked when she heard Ye Fan's words. She turned around abruptly, wanting to ask Ye Fan why he would say such a thing. However, she did not expect Ye Fan, who was outside the cave, to suddenly wave his long sleeves!
Boom! The stone door closed with a loud bang!
"Ye Fan! Ye Fan! "Fujiwara No Chiko rushed to the door and shouted while banging on the stone door.
