Chapter 263: Restrictions in the Desert
Chen Like had no way to escape the sandstorm behind him. The only way now was to temporarily delay time and think of countermeasures.
"Do you have any ideas?" Chen Li turned to look at Hong Yuan and asked him.
Hong Yuan shook his head. "If I really had a way, I wouldn't be hiding in that place."
Just as he said, if there was really any way, he would not be like this.
It is better to rely on oneself than on others. Chen Li waved his right hand, summoned the Soul-Killing Flag, and then waved the Soul-Killing Flag towards a position in front of him.
In an instant, the blood surged, and countless ghosts appeared here with blood. Hong Yuan was stunned. He did not expect that this kid would actually be a demon cultivator.
While the blood and energy were surging, these ghosts were constantly running in a certain direction, and Chen Li also took Hong Yuan and fled in the opposite direction.
Just as he thought, although these monsters didn't know what had happened, they knew there was a lot of blood and energy there, and thought that there must be help there, so they quickly followed there.
Seeing the sandstorm being carried away from its location, Hong Yuan was shocked. "I didn't expect you to have such a method."
"They are just some small tricks, and there are more than one disaster in this desert. Let's go back as soon as possible." Chen Li said lightly.
Because he now knows very well that if he continues like this, he will definitely be doomed.
Hong Yuan nodded. He also understood what Chen Li meant, so he left without hesitation.
As he was leaving, Chen Li found something wrong. He remembered that he had passed by here just now, so why was he back now?
"Have you noticed anything unusual?" Chen Li turned to look at Hong Yuan and asked him.
Hong Yuan has lived in the Western Desert longer than him, so he is naturally more familiar with the conditions here, so it is understandable to ask him these questions.
"It's indeed a bit strange. I'll make a mark here and try again later." Hong Yuan waved his hand, and a piece of stone suddenly broke.
Chen Li didn't say anything else and continued to fly forward. He always felt like he was going around in circles and there was no way out.
After an incense stick of time, Chen Li looked at the position in front of him, his face turned very ugly, and they returned to the starting point again.
The piece of stone that Hong Yuan had just broken was now lying there.
"It seems that we are really in trouble." Hong Yuan walked to the edge of the rubble pile and said calmly.
Of course Chen Li also realized the problem. He was afraid that they were trapped in this place by some formation or restriction.
"I originally thought that the only dangers this time were the monsters that turned into sandstorms, but I didn't expect there would be other dangers." Chen Li walked to Hong Yuan and said calmly.
Hong Yuan replied calmly: "This kind of thing happens occasionally in the Western Desert. I'm afraid we are trapped by the restrictions buried here."
There was just one thing he couldn't understand. They were clearly flying in the air and didn't touch any restrictions at all. How did they do that?
But thinking about these things now is obviously of no use. After all, we are trapped here, and we have to think of a way to leave here first.
Chen Li glanced at the situation nearby and found that there was something strange here. There were no monsters or disasters.
"At least we are relatively safe here and can take a rest first." Chen Li found a place to sit down and said to Hong Yuan.
Hong Yuan naturally noticed that there was no trace of monsters in this place, which meant that there were only two of them trapped here.
After Chen Li sat down, his spiritual awareness continued to spread, intending to see what was nearby.
Gradually, Chen Li discovered that his spiritual consciousness had only spread to a certain location, and then suddenly merged with the spiritual consciousness on the other side.
This situation really made Chen Li feel helpless. It seemed that this place was a circle. No matter which way he went, he would be trapped in this place in the end.
Chen Li took a deep breath and walked slowly forward with a serious look on his face. "Wait for me here for a while. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, he flew in one direction without any hesitation, leaving Hong Yuan with no time to react.
"Could this kid have discovered something?" Hong Yuan muttered to himself as he looked at the direction where Chen Li disappeared.
Although I'm not sure if it's what I thought, but given the current situation, I can only wait here.
On Chen Li's side, he put all his spiritual energy into his body and flew at the fastest speed.
Not long after, he returned to this place again, but soon left again.
Watching Chen Li come back and leave, Hong Yuan was even more confused. What on earth was this kid doing?
For the next whole day, Chen Li wandered back and forth in this place, making Hong Yuan really unable to figure out Chen Li's thoughts.
At the same time, Chen Li, who was somewhere, quickly stopped when he was about to take a step forward.
Looking at the marks in front of him, Chen Li touched his chin and fell into deep thought. If nothing unexpected happened, he only needed to take one more step forward and he would return to his previous position.
It seems that this place is the end point. If nothing unexpected happens, there must be something hidden here.
Scanning the situation nearby, Chen Li quickly expanded his spiritual sense, intending to find something hidden nearby.
But he spread his spiritual sense far away, even though it was very subtle, he didn't find anything useful.
This is strange. Could it be that my guess was wrong? Chen Li touched his chin and began to doubt.
His eyes were fixed on the ground, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He soon realized something and quickly penetrated his spiritual consciousness into the ground.
Since we didn’t find anything on the ground, let’s see if there is anything hidden underground.
Just as he thought, there were quite a few formation props on the ground, and they were still in operation.
"It seems that I am lucky enough to find these things." Chen Li grinned. He originally thought it was a restriction, but he didn't expect it to be a formation.
Since it is a formation, all we need to do is destroy it.
He waved his right hand, and a black sword quickly appeared in his hand, and he slashed at the ground quickly.
The sword energy instantly cut out a shocking sword mark on the ground in the desert. The aura was so strong that even Hong Yuan, who was far away, felt shocked.
"What's going on? Is there someone fighting over there?" Hong Yuan looked at the place where the spiritual energy exploded just now and couldn't help but frowned and said.
It seems that I have to go and take a look. If something happens to Chen Li, I won’t be able to leave here alone.
Just as he was about to move, the ground suddenly shook violently, making it impossible for him to stand firmly.
Looking at the suddenly changed terrain, Hong Yuan's eyes were filled with surprise. This was really unexpected that such a thing would happen.
On Chen Li's side, he looked at the core of the formation that was pierced by the black sword and nodded with great satisfaction. Now that the core of the formation was destroyed, it would be restored in a short time.
This place has been destroyed, so I will go and see how Hong Yuan is doing. After all, the purpose of my coming here is to bring him back.
He originally thought so, but soon he saw a figure emerging not far away, it was Hong Yuan.
Looking at Hong Yuan who was flying here in a hurry, Chen Li said, "Why did you come here suddenly?"
Hong Yuan stared at Chen Li and said, "I just felt the movement here, so I decided to come over to take a look."
Who could have thought that Chen Li could cause such a big commotion? It is estimated that no matter how powerful a person is, he would not be able to do such a thing.
"Don't worry, the problem has been solved. We won't be trapped here next time." Chen Li pointed to the core of the formation in front and said to Hong Yuan.
Hong Yuan nodded. What he was worried about now was not this, but the monsters lurking around.
Now that they are already out, they must pay attention to the monsters lurking nearby. It is night now, and all kinds of scary monsters may appear.
"Let's leave here first. If we don't leave, we will probably die here." Hong Yuan said to Chen Li very seriously.
Chen Li had no intention of refusing, and he took Hong Yuan away from here immediately. The humming sound was still echoing around them.
Although many monsters are resting, some powerful monsters will wake up at night and hunt.
They don't want to become food for those powerful monsters. Their own lives are the most important.
While escaping from here, Chen Li was also observing the situation nearby. This time was indeed different from before, and they had already left the encirclement.
"It's really strange. It's already night, why haven't those sandstorm-like monsters appeared again?" Chen Li looked at the silence around him and felt quite confused.
Hong Yuan explained, "There aren't many monsters here at night. I'm afraid they've all gone to the outskirts."
Even so, they cannot take it lightly. If something goes wrong, they will be really doomed.
Gradually, Chen Li and his friends soon saw the town not far away, which made the two of them breathe a sigh of relief.
Finally, there is hope. As long as I can get in, I can avoid the attacks of these monsters.
Just when they breathed a sigh of relief, a figure suddenly appeared in their sight and blocked their way.
This is a wolf-shaped monster with brown fur all over its body and scarlet eyes emitting bloodthirsty light.
Those sharp claws looked extremely creepy. I was afraid that Chen Li and the others would die here in just one strike.
"Cold Wind Wolf King!" When Chen Li saw this monster, he couldn't help but be amazed. He never expected that such a monster would appear here.
Judging from the pressure emanating from the Cold Wind Wolf King, it was clearly a demon beast in the middle Nascent Soul stage. The two of them probably wouldn't be able to handle it.
Even Hong Yuan was stunned. He thought he saw hope, but what awaited him was despair.
Even with just the two of them, there was no way they could deal with the demon beast in the middle Nascent Soul stage.
"Find a chance to escape from here later, and I'll find a way to hold it back." Chen Li held the black sword in his hand and said to Hong Yuan.
Hong Yuan was shocked. "Are you crazy? This is a demon beast in the middle stage of Yuanying."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sharp claws of the Cold Wind Wolf King had already slapped down, causing Chen Li and the other man to take a few steps back.
Although the two reacted quickly, they were still greatly shocked. If they had not tried their best to dodge that move, they would have been scratched long ago.
"I asked you to go back so that you could get help. Do you really think I would choose to die?" Chen Li turned his head to look at Hong Yuan and said coldly.
If he went back to ask for help, it would definitely not work. After all, he didn't know Hong Yuan's ability, so he could only rely on himself now.
Hong Yuan swallowed his saliva and looked at the town in the distance. He had to try his best to get back.
"Then you should be careful and wait for me to come back." After saying that, Hong Yuan flew towards that direction immediately.
