Lu Yuhan's eyes lit up as she suppressed the excitement in her heart and asked, "How did you know?"
"This is just my initial guess. Whether it's true or not, we will only know when the Pu Lao roars again."
Qin Yu said indifferently. As soon as he finished speaking, he angrily said, "If it wasn't for the fact that the honorable guest refused to tell the sect's experts, they would have already come to save us."
Lu Yuhan was stunned. The darkness covered the awkwardness on her beautiful face as she said coldly, "Even if the Hundred … Sect's experts know, I'm afraid they won't be able to save us."
"Why?
Could it be that even the Hundred Refinement Ancient Sect's experts can't reach this place? "
Qin Yu was surprised. Logically speaking, this forest belonged to the Hundred Refinement Ancient Sect, and the sect's experts should know this place like the back of their hand.
"Yes, the Pu Lao's roars are very terrifying." Lu Yuhan said vaguely as if she didn't want to talk about the forest.
"Do you know the pattern of the Pu Lao's roars?
How often does it happen? "Qin Yu asked again.
Lu Yuhan pondered for a while and said, "It seems to be once a year!"
"A year … That means we've been trapped here for less than a year?"
Qin Yu's eyes flashed as he felt that something was wrong. Although time seemed to have stopped in the cave, it was definitely more than a year.
Could it be that there's a Time Formation here?
Yes, there should be a Time Formation.
"We can try to leave when the Pu Lao roars, but … Have you ever thought that we might be controlled by the roars?" Lu Yuhan said thoughtfully.
"The Pu Lao is good at roaring, and its roars contain the power to control one's soul. If we seal our six senses, we won't be able to hear the Pu Lao's roars … It should be able to reduce its power."
Qin Yu said indifferently, but he was thinking about the Time Formation in his heart. He wondered what was sealed in the depths of this forest. Not only was there a Time Formation, but there was also something that even the Hundred Refinement Ancient Sect's experts didn't dare to enter.
If he was only worried about the Pu Lao's Roar, he could completely seal his six senses. Moreover, the Pu Lao's Roar seemed to only work on those with bloodlines, right?
Qin Yu suddenly reacted.
"What bloodline do you have?" Qin Yu asked.
Lu Yuhan was startled. She didn't expect Qin Yu to ask about her bloodline. However, the intelligent her quickly understood the meaning behind Qin Yu's words. She said, "Generally speaking, the soul-stirring power contained in Pu Lao's roar is only effective on those with bloodline. However, Pu Lao's cultivation is extraordinary, and his roar contains Dao sounds. Therefore, after stepping into the Dao Realm, even if one's six senses are sealed, it is useless." Lu Yuhan didn't mention a single word about her bloodline.
Qin Yu nodded. This Pu Lao Roar was somewhat similar to the dying dao voice, which made him even more curious.
"It seems that this sealed place is either refining some peerless existence, or … it is nurturing some extraordinary thing." In the darkness, Qin Yu's eyes flashed. After some speculation, he vaguely felt that the latter was most likely.
After all, if it was refining some powerful existence, there wouldn't be a ferocious beast Pu Lao. This Pu Lao seemed to be guarding this place. Moreover, the entire forest was made of essence wood, which indirectly confirmed that this place should be nurturing some kind of powerful existence.
If it was said that Qin Yu had no interest in this essence wood forest before, and only wanted to leave as soon as possible, then now, he was very interested in this essence wood forest and wanted to explore it. However, with his current cultivation, he could only guess. The exploration could only wait until his cultivation improved in the future.
"As one of the top ten disciples, have you not heard of what is sealed in this essence wood forest?
Or perhaps, that guest's purpose in coming to this essence wood forest is also not at all clear? "Qin Yu asked.
Top ten disciples?
Guest?
Lu Yuhan strangely glanced in Qin Yu's direction and said, "I don't know."
Qin Yu was helpless. He originally wanted to take advantage of his free time to figure it out, but now he could only erase this idea.
In the following days, Lu Yuhan still didn't give up digging the hole, and Qin Yu spent more time calculating the time, waiting for the Pu Lao Roar to come again.
Time passed silently.
On this day, an earth-shattering roar resounded throughout the cave without warning. Qin Yu was shocked, but fortunately, he had blocked his ears with rags. When a soul-stirring force enveloped his body, Qin Yu did not hesitate to seal his six senses.
But what shocked Qin Yu was that the cave seemed to be filled with some kind of power. This power made Qin Yu clearly feel that his flesh and blood and vitality were about to be sucked away.
"What is being nurtured here?
What kind of power is this?
It's actually absorbing vitality? "
Qin Yu was horrified. Just as he was about to crawl to the cableway with all his strength, a muffled sound accompanied by a scream sounded from beside him. Before Qin Yu could react, the cave suddenly shook.
"Not good!"
Qin Yu secretly said. Although he didn't hear the scream, he guessed that Lu Yuhan had fallen. Previously, Lu Yuhan had been digging above, and now that the Pu Lao Roar had suddenly sounded, it was likely that it had frightened her, causing her to fall. If his cultivation hadn't been sealed, it would have been fine, but now …
Hearing Lu Yuhan's painful groans, Qin Yu cursed several times. Without much hesitation, Qin Yu moved forward and quickly found Lu Yuhan curled up on the ground. Without hesitation, he took off Lu Yuhan's clothes and tied them to his back. Then, he quickly climbed into the tunnel.
Although the Pu Lao's roar had caused Qin Yu's mind to be somewhat absent-minded, fortunately, he had sealed his six senses and had rags blocking his ears, so he was able to forcibly stabilize his mind.
To Qin Yu's surprise, when the Pu Lao roared, the pressure that had shrouded the tunnel had actually disappeared.
At this moment, Qin Yu's strong desire to live erupted, and he quickly climbed upwards.
But when it rains, it pours. What Qin Yu never expected was that at this critical moment, an extremely cold Yin Qi would spread out from Lu Yuhan's body, causing Qin Yu to immediately tremble and almost fall.
When the Pu Lao's roar suddenly sounded, Lu Yuhan, who had been digging, had carelessly fallen from above. That roar had caused her to be absent-minded, and when she fell, she had sealed her six senses. She had thought that her physical body wouldn't be able to hurt her, but she hadn't expected that after her cultivation was sealed, the strength of her physical body would also be greatly reduced.
This fall had almost caused her legs to break. In her agony, she had thought that she would really die in this tunnel, but she hadn't expected that Qin Yu would actually save her. But then, what made Lu Yuhan despair was that the cold Yin Qi in her body had actually flared up at this critical moment.
Wrapped in the boundless cold, Lu Yuhan's heart was filled with despair. She really wanted Qin Yu to put her down, but with the cold Qi attacking her heart, she simply didn't have the strength to speak. She could feel Qin Yu's trembling body, as well as his rapidly squirming muscles.
An inexplicable warmth flowed through Lu Yuhan's heart, but as the cold Qi in her body erupted, her consciousness began to blur, and she quickly fell unconscious.
Qin Yu, who was climbing with all his might, had never thought of giving up on Lu Yuhan. Unless he had no other choice, he also didn't want to abandon Lu Yuhan. After all, they had been together for so long. Moreover, although the cold Yin Qi emitted by Lu Yuhan made him feel uncomfortable, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, this cold Qi seemed to contain some kind of power that resisted the soul-sucking power contained in the Pu Lao's roar.
Without the existence of that pressure, this tunnel was nothing to Qin Yu. He raised his speed to the limit and climbed out of the tunnel in less than a quarter of an hour.
Seeing the light of day again, Qin Yu swept his gaze over his surroundings. To his surprise, he discovered that the ground around him was riddled with holes, and at the very end of his line of sight, there was a huge curtain of light that covered the world in front of him.
In the curtain of light, clouds and mist curled about, and he could vaguely see a huge Vicious Beast roaring at the sky.
The Vicious Beast Pu Lao!
Without waiting for Qin Yu to think about it, the space buzzed and many Vicious Beasts rushed in from the periphery of the Essence Wood Forest.
Qin Yu's heart shook. Resisting the cold Qi on his back, he gritted his teeth and carried Lu Yuhan towards the periphery of the Essence Wood Forest!
