Chapter 161 Finding Wu Lan
Chapter 161 Finding Wu Lan
On the fourth floor of the inky black demon cave, a figure was lying on the ground covered in blood.
His chest rose and fell slightly, and his eyes stared blankly at the dark sky above.
Wu Lan has been lying here for several hours, and the monster on the fourth floor has already reached a level of cultivation close to that of a golden elixir.
Even if he had many trump cards in his hand, they would be almost exhausted after killing one round after another.
Until he encountered a demonized hawkbeast here, he exhausted all his means and barely killed it.
The price he paid was that he was seriously injured, his demonic energy was exhausted, and he lay on the ground exhausted and unable to move.
The evil energy recovered bit by bit, and he finally had enough energy to open the storage ring and take out the healing pills, and the bleeding on his body slowly stopped.
He lay down again, and his injuries were much better. Then he struggled to get up and continued to move forward.
He didn't have much time left. He had been fighting all the way and had wasted too much time.
In this way, Cheng Shuang and others will encounter much less danger, and their speed will naturally be much faster.
At this rate, Cheng Shuang and his group will catch up with him in at most one day.
Among all the known people in the Demon Realm, only he and Cheng Shuang can enter the Holy Spring.
He must get in before Cheng Shuang.
……
"Sister, we haven't encountered any powerful monsters along the way. It seems that Wu Lan is really ahead of us."
After the few of them dealt with another monster in the early stage of foundation building, the worry on Cheng Shuang's face became more and more intense, and she couldn't help but say to Cheng Shuyan with concern.
They are still on the third floor. Although they have not encountered any danger, they are constantly tripped by monsters and have never caught up with Wu Lan.
In addition, the demon cultivators who originally stayed on the second floor gradually discovered that the powerful monsters on the third floor had been cleared out, and they also began to enter the third floor.
As the number of people increased, there were more and more cases of killing and stealing. Even their team of six people were ambushed several times.
Although he was not hurt by those people, he still wasted a lot of time fighting against them.
Cheng Shuang knew that Wu Lan would definitely enter the Holy Spring before her. She understood this the moment Wu Lan appeared at the Holy Son selection site.
She didn't choose Wu Lan because she didn't want him to be involved.
The Demon Lord is currently in seclusion and is unaware of what is happening in the outside world, but Elder Qu will certainly not let Wu Lan in.
But she didn't expect Wu Lan to come anyway.
Behind them, a group of demons were rushing towards them quickly. When they saw them, they couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The leader hurriedly quickened his pace to catch up with the others, stopped Cheng Shuang and asked, "Young Demon Lord, have you seen Young Master Wu Lan?"
"No." Cheng Shuang shook her head with a worried look on her face. "We haven't seen him yet. Judging from the current situation, he may have entered the fourth floor."
"How can that be possible!" the leader said anxiously, "If we let Young Master Wu Lan enter the Holy Spring first, we'll all be in big trouble!"
There was a hint of blame in his tone, and Cheng Shuang couldn't help but frown slightly.
"That's your fault, the Prison Hall! You should have kept an eye on him and prevented him from entering the Demonic Lair! Now that this has happened, whatever consequences you have to endure are your own fault!"
Seeing that the two sides were about to argue, Cheng Shuyan quickly spoke out to persuade them:
"Everyone, please stop arguing. Our most urgent task is to quickly head to the fourth floor to find Wu Lan.
Shuang'er, isn't it said that the Holy Spring is guarded by a formation and only our sword formation can break it?
Even if Wu Lan reaches the Holy Spring first, he may not be able to break the formation, so we should not lose our composure."
The man snorted coldly upon hearing this, but ultimately said nothing more.
After Elder Qu returned, he immediately ordered them to bring Wu Lan back, otherwise they would not be able to return alive.
At this moment, whether they can keep their lives depends entirely on whether they can successfully get Wu Lan away before he steps into the Holy Spring.
Without wasting any more time, everyone rushed towards the fourth floor.
One day later, everyone finally reached the fourth floor.
However, as soon as you step into this area, a strong and pungent smell of blood hits you in the face, making you feel sick.
The atmosphere here is completely different from the previous three floors, filled with endless killing and violence.
Even this group of demon cultivators who were gradually becoming more and more demonic could not help but frown and look uncomfortable.
However, Cheng Shuyan felt like a fish in water here and was extremely happy and contented.
This is undoubtedly an excellent place for her to practice.
If she hadn't wanted to accompany Cheng Shuang to the Holy Spring, she would have wanted to stay where she was and practice.
Now the number of people in the group has reached more than ten. The monsters in the cave are almost all solitary. Faced with such a large team like theirs, they all choose to hide in their hideouts.
As a result, the group's speed was actually faster than when they were on the third floor.
Everyone endured the discomfort and hurried towards the holy spring. Finally, half a day later, they saw Wu Lan's figure in the distance.
His robes had rotted into shreds and were hanging on his body, and his body was covered in blood.
But he was completely unaware of it. In front of him, he could vaguely see a pool of blurry spring water shrouded by the power of the formation.
However, Wu Lan waved the long spear in his hand and attacked the formation outside the holy spring.
Cheng Shuang witnessed everything that was happening before her eyes, her eyes instantly became moist, and tears flowed out like a dam breaking, blurring her vision.
She looked at Wu Lan's back and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Wu Lan, stop! I don't need you to do this!"
Accompanied by the shouts, Cheng Shuang was extremely anxious and rushed towards Wu Lan as fast as the wind.
At the same time, everyone else also rushed towards where Wu Lan was in panic.
Everyone's face was filled with anxiety and worry, fearing that if they were a step late, Wu Lan would break through the mysterious formation and break in.
However, at this moment, Wu Lan seemed to notice shouts and footsteps coming from behind him.
He slowly turned around and glanced coldly at Cheng Shuang who was rushing towards him.
Then, he quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something.
In an instant, a dazzling light shot up into the sky from behind him, and a huge and complex formation suddenly appeared.
This formation is like an indestructible wall, blocking out anyone who tries to approach.
No matter how hard they tried, they were unable to break through the barrier at all. They could only watch Wu Lan standing inside the formation, far away from them.
At this moment, Wu Lan had no expression on his face, and his voice was cold and emotionless as he said:
"Cheng Shuang, this is a matter of my Demon Realm. It has nothing to do with you. Go back!"
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to the crowd and turned around to continue focusing on the formation in front of him.
"Everyone listen up, form the sword formation!"
