Though it was a waste of time, there was nothing Lu Li could do. He could not force his way in.
Blood Fairy said that there was a powerful dojo in here and she could not do anything about it. If Lu Li tried to force his way in, he would be courting death.
He explained to Mu Yingying and they left the tower and went back the way they came. Blood Fairy followed Lu Li to the entrance of the valley.
When they were about to step out of the valley, something happened —
The entire valley trembled. Then, many black dragons of fire came out from the entrance and sealed off the entrance.
"Eh!"
Lu Li and Mu Yingying looked at each other. They were taken aback. There was not just one dragon of fire at the entrance, but countless dragons of fire that covered the entire entrance.
Those black dragons of fire came in and out. The temperature was so high that Lu Li and Mu Yingying felt they were on fire even though they were thousands of feet away.
The black dragons of fire kept coming in and out. There was no way out unless Lu Li and Mu Yingying flew up.
The problem was … whoever dared to fly up would die a miserable death once they triggered the dojo in the Flying Volcano.
The two of them observed for a moment, but they were at a loss of what to do. Blood Fairy's voice rang out, "Master, this is bad. I don't know why the hidden Divine Inscriptions Dojo was activated. Now that the Divine Inscriptions Dojo has been activated, we won't be able to exit temporarily."
"We can't get out?"
Lu Li was troubled. If they were stuck here for a day or two, the patriarchs of the Mu Family, Palace of Rakshasa and the Underworld would find them soon. By then, even if Blood Fairy could solve the problem, Lu Li would still be doomed.
"Do you think you can solve it?"
Lu Li asked at once. Blood Fairy did not answer right away. Instead, she wandered around underground. After the time for one incense stick to burn, she replied, "I don't know. I need some time. Maybe I can solve it in half a day, or a few days, or a few months. But … I think I have a chance."
"Eh …"
Lu Li was troubled. In a few months, he would have to wait for his death.
He was lost in thoughts. Mu Yingying asked, "How is it?
Can you solve it? "
"Not yet!"
Lu Li shook his head. "I need some time. I think it will take at least a few days. How about … we fly out on the Godspeed Boat?"
"Absolutely not!"
Mu Yingying's pretty face changed. She shook her head and said, "Don't ever go to the sky. Countless people have confirmed that going to the sky means certain death. Although the Godspeed Boat is fast, I think it will be destroyed in an instant."
"Then we can only wait!"
Lu Li sighed. He told Blood Fairy to solve the problem quickly. Mu Yingying was not worried about her own safety. Later on, the powerful warriors of the Mu Family would come. No matter how strong the runes were, they could be cracked by force.
He waited for the time it takes for three incense sticks to burn before Blood Fairy transmitted a message to him. "Master, I'm confident that I can break it open. I'm even confident that I can take control of the Divine Inscriptions Dojo. However, I'll need at least five to six days."
"You don't need to control it!" Lu Li immediately said, "You just need to find a way out, and you need to be fast!"
"Alright!" Blood Fairy replied. "I'll hurry. The runes here are very complicated."
Mu Yingying looked at Lu Li's expression. She forced a smile and said, "How about we go in and have a seat? We can't rush this."
"Alright!"
Lu Li followed Mu Yingying into the tower. They continued to drink tea. But the atmosphere was gone. The atmosphere was depressing.
A moment later, Mu Yingying said, "Young Master Lu, don't worry. If you can't do it, you can take me hostage. My Chief Patriarch is here. I don't think anyone will dare to touch you."
Lu Li forced a smile. What else could he do?
He had to wait and do his best, leaving the rest to fate.
…
Outside the Flying Volcano, more and more powerful warriors were coming. The first to arrive were those nearby, followed by Mu Wanyun and the others. Following them were those from the Palace of Rakshasa and the Hell.
Two days after Lu Li was trapped, many powerful warriors had arrived. Average warriors did not go in. Instead, scouts and warriors of the fourth tribulation had gone in to look for Lu Li.
Even though Lu Li did not leave any traces, the scouts in front of him could tell where he was going. They left marks along the way as well.
Therefore, the powerful warriors followed the marks. There were many runes on the way that would slow them down. That being said, they were all powerful warriors so they could pass through easily.
Lu Li was trapped for three days. Patriarchs of the Mu Family had arrived. Several scouts were guarding outside the valley. They believed that Lu Li and Mu Yingying were in the valley.
On the fourth day, Mu Wanyun and Chief Patriarch came. Mu Wanyun asked with a frown, "Are you sure they are in there?"
A patriarch answered, "There are powerful runes around here and there are no signs of damage. The Rune Taoist Field in the valley is disturbed. Also … Chief Patriarch, you can check. Mu Yingying's Dragon Elephant Pagoda is in there."
Mu Wanyun used psychic power to check at once. Their psychic power was so strong that they could see through the runes. After a while, Mu Wanyun nodded and said, "They are in there!"
Chief Patriarch was delighted. Lu Li was trapped in there. Not even an immortal could save him.
Even if Mu Yingying was taken hostage, Chief Patriarch could kill Lu Li in an instant if he had the chance.
"Brother Wanyun!"
Chief Patriarch cupped his fists and said, "Are you gathering people to break the formation?
Do you have any powerful warriors that can understand runes? "
"Yes, we do!"
Mu Wanyun nodded and said with a bitter smile, "But I have some impression of this valley. I think I have been here before. Back then, there was an old man that was proficient in runes trapped in there. It took him half a month to break the formation.
I think we should just break it open by force instead of breaking the formation. "
There were so many powerful warriors here and there were more coming. The attacks of so many people were horrifying. They should be able to break it open by force.
"Let's try!"
Chief Patriarch nodded. His hand glowed and a huge hand appeared out of thin air and smashed at the mountain on the left. That mountain trembled and then glowed. Countless runes emerged.
"Attack!"
Mu Wanyun growled, and the group of people released their own attacks, hurriedly bombarding the mountain peak on the left.
The sky was filled with glaring lights. The horrifying qi and energy spread out, making the souls of the scouts tremble.
That mountain was glaring and intertwined with runes, blocking all the powerful warriors' attacks.
One had to admit that the Rune Taoist Field here was very powerful. If it were regular runes, they would have been blasted open.
"Uh ~"
Lu Li and Mu Yingying were alarmed. It was hard not to be alarmed by such horrifying tremors and explosions. Both of them used their psychic power to check and their expressions changed.
"So many people are here …"
