…
"I don't know either …"
However, Song Lian's answer made Qin Fang very surprised. He actually said that he didn't know … "From the moment I was suddenly transmitted away, I listened to your order and stood in the same place, not daring to move."
"However, I don't know why. I'm standing here, and I'm clearly not under any attack, but I can clearly feel the energy, vitality, and even the primordial spirit in my body being consumed …"
"Fortunately, the rate of consumption is not too fast. Otherwise, I really don't know if I can hold on until now … Even so, I'm almost at the point of exhaustion."
Song Lian's face was incomparably pale, but fortunately, his consciousness was still relatively clear. At this time, he was somewhat thankful that he explained himself. He was completely clueless about how he had fallen into this trap, and he did not even know who the "culprit" was.
"It's okay. With me here, you're safe …"
Qin Fang also smiled, patted Song Lian's shoulder, and said simply.
After taking the elixir, Song Lian's energy and vitality were rapidly recovering. Even the power of his primordial spirit was rapidly recovering …
"Let's go, let's leave this place first …"
However, Qin Fang did not look for the culprit who had tricked Qin Fang. Instead, he led him out of this place quickly and went straight in the direction of the Penglai Secret Land … There was no other way. There was not much time left for them. If they could not walk out of the island's protective formation before the time limit was up, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Qin Fang himself was fine. With the Heavenly Star Lock in hand, he would at most be expelled from the island's protective formation. However, Song Lian would not be able to survive. He would most likely be directly crushed into powder!
Prop box?
This was a good idea, but why did Qin Fang not do this from the beginning?
There was no other reason. He always felt that this island's protective formation hid an incomparably terrifying danger. Song Lian's existence also served as a cover for Qin Fang … If necessary, Qin Fang could only abandon the rook to save the king.
Naturally, he couldn't let Song Lian hide in the prop box …
What's more, when Song Lian walked out of the island-protecting array, he would most likely be discovered by the people of the Penglai Secret Land … Qin Fang could disappear at the right time, but Song Lian couldn't appear out of thin air.
"Hu hu ~ ~ ~"
With Qin Fang leading the way, Song Lian also blindly followed behind … Although he had taken the medicinal pill, it still took time to recover. When he walked, he was quite weak and panting.
As a half-step Martial Emperor, Song Lian also knew how dangerous this island's grand formation was. Even though he was very tired and very weak, he still clenched his teeth and persisted. However, his complexion had turned even paler.
However, Qin Fang did not say a word, as if he did not see it at all.
Time was of the essence, and the two of them did not dare to waste a single second. They also prioritized their journey as quickly as possible. Other minor details could be thrown aside, and they could slowly talk about it later when they had time!
Qin Fang did not even let the mirage demon out to lead the way …
In this island's grand formation, the Heavenly Star Lock alone was enough to pass through this island's grand formation and enter the Penglai Secret Land. Why should he expose his new pet, the mirage demon?
Moreover, judging from this, Qin Fang's trust in Song Lian seemed to have decreased … Or rather, he had become quite distrustful. It was just that for some reason, he did not express it.
Without the mirage demon to lead the way, Qin Fang's speed was naturally much slower. It took nearly half an hour before the exit appeared in front of them.
"Okay, the exit is here … Next, let's split up!
Keep in touch! "
When they reached the exit, Qin Fang also gave a simple instruction to Song Lian. Then, he quietly hid himself … At his level of cultivation, his concealment skill was extremely powerful. Even if he was close by, Song Lian could not find any trace of Qin Fang.
Of course, Song Lian didn't think too much about it. He immediately bent his waist and went into the exit …
Although it was called an exit, it was actually a small transmission array that could directly transmit Song Lian from the island's grand formation to the Penglai Secret Land … Moreover, it would appear at a hidden transmission altar in the Penglai Secret Land.
Normally, this altar would be guarded by some people … Perhaps it was to prevent people from rashly breaking into this altar and then entering the island's grand formation to court death!
The island's grand formation was extremely dangerous. The reason Qin Fang could bring Song Lian out safely was that they had the key, the Heavenly Star Lock, in their hands. Naturally, there was only a slight impact.
Without the Heavenly Star Lock, one would not be able to determine the direction in the island's grand formation and it would be easy to get completely lost. On the other hand, various attacks and traps would be magnified by several times or more … For a Half-step Martial Emperor like Qin Fang, who could easily survive, perhaps even a Martial Emperor expert could be killed in an instant.
This island's grand formation had existed for an extremely long time and its power was even more difficult to estimate. A mere Martial Emperor expert could be said to be the strongest human on Earth now, but in the distant ancient times, it was completely nothing at all.
However, this island's grand formation could protect the Penglai Secret Land for thousands of years without being damaged. It was easy to imagine how tyrannical its power was … The reason why its lethality was now weak was because too much time had passed and too much of its energy had been exhausted and dissipated.
Especially after the Heavenly Star Lock was lost, the island's grand formation's entrance and exit were strictly restricted … needless to say, the entrance to the island's grand formation could not be found at all. Therefore, this exit was especially important. If anyone rashly broke in, it would be very difficult to come out alive.
It was fine if they died. Although the people in the Penglai Secret Land could not be compared to the people in the outside world, they did not lack one or two people. The most frightening thing was that these people would desperately attack before they died and cause a certain amount of damage to the island's grand formation. That would be quite bad.
No matter what the outcome was, it was not what the Penglai Secret Land wanted to see. They might as well strictly seal this exit and nip all the sprouts in the bud. Then, they could be at ease.
However …
The guards did not expect that the teleportation altar at the exit would suddenly move today …
Hualala ~ ~ ~
After a moment of panic, at least ten powerful guards surrounded the altar … The leader of the guards was a Quasi-Martial Emperor expert. He was also densely covered in energy and energy. It was obvious that he had raised his vigilance to the extreme.
"It's … it's me!"
As soon as he appeared on the altar, Song Lian's body swayed as he spoke with all his might … He didn't want to die right after entering the Peng Lai Secret Realm. He didn't want to die here before he did anything.
Moreover, Song Lian's current physical condition was also quite terrible. He swayed and looked incomparably weak. It was also quite strenuous for him to speak … It gave people the impression that he could die at any time.
"Who is it?"
Hearing Song Lian's voice, the guards were slightly stunned. They vaguely felt that the voice was slightly familiar, so they immediately shouted in surprise. Nonetheless, when they saw the face of the person on the altar, they were also very surprised. "Song … Song Lian?"
Clearly, Song Lian could be considered an expert among the younger generation of the Peng Lai Secret Realm. Even if he could not be considered a top-notch expert, he was still quite famous … Many people knew him, especially the younger generation.
As for the task of guarding the altar, it was usually rotated. An older and more powerful commander would lead a group of younger experts to guard the altar … Actually, there wouldn't be any major problems. It was just that the Penglai Mystic Realm didn't dare to slack off. That was why this tradition was maintained.
However, no one knew how many years had passed, but the altar had never been opened.
Song Lian's return was considered the first time!
The reason was very simple. In the past few hundred years, several groups of people had left the Penglai Secret Land and the central plains … It was the same for the Heavenly Star Mansion, the King of Hell Mansion, and so on. However, without exception, none of them returned.
What was the final whereabouts of these people?
The Heavenly Star Mansion and the King of Hell Mansion had records and inheritances. They must have stayed outside to establish their own foundations and were unwilling to return to the Penglai Secret Land to continue being followers.
There were also some who didn't have any records. Most of them were killed before they were able to establish anything … So what if they were powerful?
If they did not have any experience in the martial world, they would have been played to death.
Of course, there was no lack of reasons for the King of Hell Mansion to obstruct them …
For example, Song Lian's group. It was Yan Xing from the King of Hell Mansion who took the initiative to provoke some of their strange thoughts. Only then did they destroy the Kunlun Sect and cause the various forces to unite against a common enemy …
Nonetheless, Yan Xing himself did not expect that Song Lian and the others would not be killed by the joint forces of the major forces who were united against a common enemy, but by Qin Fang alone!
There were all kinds of reasons. No matter how strong a powerhouse was, there would be a time when they would fall … The powerhouses of the Penglai Secret Land were no exception.
It was precisely because none of the people who went out had returned in the past few hundred years that this altar had become a symbolic decoration. It had not been opened for hundreds of years. Who would have thought that Song Lian would actually open it today? He even successfully passed through the dangerous Island Protecting Formation and returned to the Penglai Secret Land.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Why did you come back alone?"
"And … What exactly happened?"
Such a shocking act immediately aroused the curiosity and vigilance of these guards. They even carefully observed Song Lian to confirm if this fellow was impersonated by someone else.
"Quick, quick, quick … Send me to … to the Elders' Hall … I have important … important matters to report to the … to the Elders!"
After catching his breath, Song Lian hurriedly said.
