The group's beloved wife: She is the phoenix, she is the king

Chapter 171: Strange Cave

Sometimes a seemingly insignificant discovery may hide a huge conspiracy.

After walking and stopping for half an hour, the three of them arrived at a cave with many paths leading to all directions. From time to time, they could hear some conversations and the sound of many footsteps.

Outside the cave.

Dongfang Junyan used some of his spiritual sense to investigate, and then transmitted his spiritual sense, "Nuoxi, there are some mechanisms and traps in the cave. You and her will follow my instructions."

"it is good."

After he finished speaking, Dongfang Junyan waved his hand, and the three figures disappeared from the spot.

With Dongfang Junyan's help, the group successfully avoided one mechanism and trap after another. After a cup of tea, the three of them appeared in a long corridor. On both sides of the corridor were caves of different sizes. Candles were burning above some of the cave entrances, making the dark corridor look more interesting to explore.

Here, you can hear various sounds more intuitively.

"Hey, don't sleep, come over and give me a hand..."

"Bang dong-"

"We are clearly short of manpower lately, and we don't know when reinforcements will arrive."

"Be careful not to get yourself involved."

"Tsk tsk, you people from Tianluosha are too timid."

"That's right, you want to have a piece of the pie when you don't have the ability, I think you should just go back!"

"Pooh!"

"If it weren't for our Agama Realm, you, Tianluosha, wouldn't have this opportunity!"

……

While they were talking, Dongfang Junyan quickly locked onto the approximate area where they were.

With the help of the Invisibility Pill and Dongfang Junyan, they arrived at the source of the sound in a short while.

This place is spacious and deep. Due to the limitation of light, it is much darker than outside. Only a few candles are lit around, dimly illuminating part of the area, but it is enough to make people notice the existence of three or four passages.

The inner walls of the cave are covered with rocks and stalagmites of various shapes, some are smooth as mirrors, some are rough as sandpaper, and some have strange shapes, as if they were sculpted by a unique force.

Some rocks and stalagmites have tiny water droplets floating on them, which refract light and sparkle beautifully.

It's even colder here than outside.

Most of the people from Danqiu Country gathered here in an orderly manner. Some of them were walking towards a diamond-shaped rock in an orderly manner. There were also some runes on the place where they stepped, and the whole people were wrapped in a faint gray-white air.

There were some strange reed-gray runes painted on the rock, and above the runes were circles of thick gray-white air.

Those people came to the rock and mechanically placed their hands on it, allowing the thick gray-white air to envelope them.

After a while, the gray air faded away, and these people with pale faces walked to the other side and stood neatly. There were already many people there with the same pale faces as them.

A man guarding near the rock looked at the crowd and said impatiently, "Why are there still so many? When will it end?"

"Brother, just be content. There are more places than here." The people who were guarding with him advised.

"Go, go, keep an eye on these people!"

The man took action and drew out the gray-white gas from the rock. The others who had not yet touched the rock were soon enveloped by the thick gray-white gas.

After about a cup of tea, the grayish-white air returned to the rock.

Fan Nuoxi noticed that Dongfang Junyan's men, as well as Haoyu and the others were not here, so he felt relieved and secretly released a lot of reconnaissance soldiers.

"Okay, let's go meet up with them and send this group of people out again."

The two leaders looked at each other and walked towards the passage on their left. The people from Danqiu Country followed them involuntarily.

When most people had left, Fan Nuoxi finally mustered up the courage to take a look at the strange rock. However, Meng Yujie was afraid and held on to the corner of Fan Nuoxi's clothes.

"Sister, let's leave here." Meng Yujie said in a low voice.

"it is good."

Just in case, Fan Nuoxi released a few more reconnaissance soldiers.

There was no other way. It was because Shadowless Paper was so easy to refine. Ever since she was promoted to the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm, she had doubled the speed in refining this thing. Thinking that it might be used in many places in the future, she refined a lot of it. After the finished product was made, she asked Tuanzi to help optimize it.

After being optimized, these little guys greatly met Fan Nuoxi's needs.

After following the person at the end for a long circle, Fan Nuoxi and the other two arrived at a larger cave, where there were seven or eight passages leading to other places.

There are more people here than before. Judging from their clothes and hair styles, there are not only people from Danqiu Country, but also people from Liyou Country and Lingyuan Country. There also seem to be some people from some sects. This number is probably a bit shocking...

It seems that the situation is worse than imagined.

"Hey, how long will it take you guys? We have already dealt with everything we were responsible for, and you are the only ones left!"

"With so many of you, you can't be better than the two of us, right?"

The two who completed the task stood with their hands behind their backs and showed off, which soon aroused the dissatisfaction of others.

"Go, go, go, when you're done, just stay aside and don't bother us."

"That's right, you kid, do you want to be beaten?"

"Don't come over here, I'm getting annoyed just looking at you..."

……

In front of the crowd, there stood four huge rune rocks. Like before, there was a large mass of thick gray-white air on the reed-gray runes. The difference was that under each person's feet there was another more overbearing liver-purple rune. Fan Nuoxi and the other two could feel the oppression brought by this rune from a distance.

In front of these rocks, there were about twenty people standing. They had seen some of them before. Their strength was all above the Nascent Soul stage, and the highest one was only at the fifth level of Spirit Transformation.

Dongfang Junyan explored the place quietly and found that their people were not among them. They were hiding in a small cave next to them and observing the movements here.

Dongfang Junyan signaled them not to act rashly, and then took Fan Nuoxi and Meng Yujie and quietly sneaked into the huge team.

For some reason, the runes on the ground did not spread to the feet of the three people, and they were even a little afraid.

This makes it easier for Dongfang Junyan and Fan Nuoxi to sense the general direction and effect of the rune. Meng Yujie clenched her fists and then released them when she saw so many people turn pale at the same time.

Seeing that Dongfang Junyan and Fan Nuoxi were too busy to pay attention to her, Meng Yujie silently recited some obscure words.

After a moment, the runes suddenly faded away bit by bit. This large group of people were still in a daze, but their faces looked much better than before.

A few minutes later, the gray-white gas on the four rocks flickered and seemed to be dissipating.

Those people started arguing about this.

"Hey, can you guys do this?"

"Shut your stinky mouth!"

"Could it be that you used too much force and made the stone saturated prematurely? It's not even daybreak yet and you've already made such a big mess. When you go back and report, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape punishment..."

"If you say one more word, we'll tear your mouth apart!"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing, we still have to find a way to send these people back!"

"What are you arguing about? The work isn't done yet, what's there to argue about?"

"..."

After a long while, these people, unwilling to give in to each other, left the cave with the people they were responsible for.

When most people had left, Dong Yu showed up with the others.

"Master, what should we do next?"

"Stand still for now."

Dongfang Junyan looked at the rocks with runes on them, his eyes filled with coldness.

Fan Nuoxi sent a lot of scouts toward the seven or eight passages, "Don't worry about these for now, let's follow them out first."

The group chose the passage taken by the Danqiu people and followed them in.

After turning several corners, we finally walked out of the cave.

Before my eyes was another vortex passage with a grayish-white aura, and a long team was entering the passage in an orderly manner.

This time, after Fan Nuoxi and his group entered, there was nothing unusual. They could see the people in front of them as well as the people behind them.

About an hour later, they finally returned to Danqiu Kingdom.
