Lu Li was still entangled by the branches. He was not in a hurry. He waited quietly for Blood Fairy's news.
An hour later, the branches that entangled Lu Li suddenly glowed. Blood Fairy said, "Master, I have cracked it. You can move forward without worry. I will take care of the rest."
"Well done!"
Lu Li could not help but exclaim. With Blood Fairy here, it would be much easier to crack the formation. He released divine energy and freed himself from the branches.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li strode forward. As he moved, the branches in the distance moved as well. Just when Lu Li thought the branches would entangle him again, the branches glowed and stopped moving.
"Okay!"
Lu Li was relieved. Blood Fairy must have mastered the key to crack the formation. She could change some patterns so that the branches could not attack him.
Lu Li sped up. He ignored all the snakes. Though many of them had entered his soul, they could not inflict any harm to him. Instead, they could replenish energy for the dragon soul.
He sped up and moved forward. With Blood Fairy's help, all the trees in front of him stopped when they were about to attack him. Lu Li could move forward easily.
The forest was not a large one. For average warriors, it was like a mountain of swords and a sea of fire. Every step forward was difficult.
But for Lu Li, it was a piece of cake. In less than an hour, he had made it through the forest.
"Buzzing!"
Lu Li took out the Wicked Bead, put away the Worms of the Void and let Ling Qingyan out.
Ling Qingyan was waiting in the Wicked Bead with anxiety. All of a sudden, she saw a white glare.
Out of instinct, she put up her guard and took out her weapon. But when she saw Lu Li and took a look, she asked in surprise, "Lu Li, have you made it through the Forest of Darkness?"
Lu Li shrugged. "Can't you see for yourself?
That is the Forest of Darkness! "
"What …"
Ling Qingyan was taken aback. She took a look to make sure that they were out of the Forest of Darkness.
For her, the Forest of Darkness was a deadly place. But Lu Li had made it through in an hour.
She had entered the forest seven or eight times. Every time, she would be forced to leave soon or else she would lose her life in there.
Ling Qingyan was not sure if Lu Li could make it through the forest. Now, not only did Lu Li make it, he did it so easily.
Ling Qingyan was shocked. His view of Lu Li changed once again.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li didn't say much. There were many things that were hard to explain. He pointed to the front and said, "It's all mist over there. It's like the Misty Soul Mountain. There must be an illusion. Do you know anything about that place?"
"It should be the Fog Sea!"
Ling Qingyan thought for a while and said, "An ancestor of Prince Yan's Mansion once went in. He said that the fog sea is a natural magic array. If you find the trick, you can easily break it. If you can't, you will be trapped for a long time.
However, he didn't leave us any information about this trick. He only said that … there were some natural dao patterns here. If we were lucky, we could comprehend something inside.
We speculate that if you want to break the illusion array inside, you must comprehend something inside. Only then will it be easy to break the array. Otherwise, the ancestors would have left behind a trick to break the array. "
"Comprehend?"
Lu Li frowned. Normally, he would be happy. After all, if he could comprehend something, he could learn some Fundamental Meanings.
But now, he was troubled. He didn't have much time. Zuo Qiu Lu and the others were coming to the Land of Youyan. If he was trapped in there for a couple of years, who knew what would happen?
“
He thought about it and asked, "Can we go around it?"
"It should be difficult!"
Ling Qingyan shook his head and said, "According to the records of our ancestors, this is the core area of the Ancient Demons Dead Land.
The Fog Sea is vast and the core area is probably in the Fog Sea. "
"Then let's go."
Lu Li said no more. He walked forward with Ling Qingyan. After a few hundred feet, they were shrouded by the fog.
Lu Li's psychic power was restricted. Just like the Misty Soul Mountain, psychic power couldn't reach too far or else the Fog Sea wouldn't be so scary.
Lu Li walked ahead with his Cold Blade Saber in his hand, sensing the fluctuations in the air.
Ling Qingyan followed Lu Li closely. He didn't want to be separated from Lu Li because there was a natural illusion here.
The fog was getting thicker, but there was only mud underground. There was no seawater.
Lu Li told Blood Fairy to go underground from his feet to see if there were any formation patterns.
Along the way, Lu Li would build some Inhibition Formations. He could sense the Inhibition Formations so that he could tell which way to go. He wouldn't be led in circles by the formation of illusion.
Along the way, the ground was flat. There was no sign of life or danger.
Lu Li became more confused. The formation of illusion in the center of the Ancient Demons Dead Land should be stronger than the outside. Why was there no danger here?
Also, there was nothing special about the formation of illusion.
"Master!"
After a moment, Blood Fairy said, "There are no formations underground and I don't sense any movement of Inhibition Formations!"
Lu Li nodded. This was a natural formation of illusion. It wouldn't be easy to crack.
He pressed on with a frown. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong.
"Qingyan!"
He turned around at once. Ling Qingyan who had been following him was gone. Lu Li was shocked.
Because Ling Qingyan had been less than one meter behind him. How could he disappear without a trace at such a close distance?
Lu Li hurried back and at the same time, shouted Ling Qingyan's name.
However, he had been searching for dozens of miles and his shout could be heard in an area with a radius of three hundred miles. Not only was he unable to find Ling Qingyan, but there was no response from her.
"Damn it!"
Lu Li continued to run and shout. He had been running for the time for three incense sticks to burn, but he found nothing.
What was more shocking was that he had built some Inhibition Formations behind him. Yet, he could not sense anything. Not a single Inhibition Formation.
"Is this formation of illusion too strong? Or has Ling Qingyan been teleported away?
Or has she been taken away by a powerful warrior? "
Three thoughts came to Lu Li's mind. He believed it was unlikely that Ling Qingyan had been taken away.
After all, Ling Qingyan was not weak. It was unlikely that a powerful warrior could take Ling Qingyan away without anyone noticing.
Then, it must be because of the formation of illusion. Or, she had been teleported away.
Lu Li stopped. Looking at the thick fog around him, he felt a headache.
It would be easier to crack if the formation was built by someone.
However, if it was built by someone, there would be traces.
Any kind of formation would leave traces after it was built.
However, natural formations were more troublesome. What was more, there were no formations underground and no movement of Inhibition Formations.
"Let me walk around!"
Since there was no danger here, Lu Li sped up. This place could not be covered in fog forever, could it?
As long as there was something special, he could find the key to crack the formation.
After running for an hour, Lu Li stopped. Finally, he found a different landscape, but this landscape made him turn pale with fright.
