As the Universe Turns - Chapter 437
Chapter 437 Crack
About half an hour later, everyone arrived at the deepest part of the valley. Indeed, there was a spatial rift in front of them. Back then, because of the obstruction of the devil aura, Daoist Gui and the others were unable to reach this place. Otherwise, they would not have been trapped in Tomb of Gods and Demons forever.
“Good, it’s indeed a spatial rift that leads to the outside world. Brat, you really have the ability to bring us here. Very good, hahaha …”
Pili Zidian became excited. He stared at the spatial crack and his gaze gradually turned cold. “It’s been a thousand years. When I leave, none of you will be able to escape. It’s time for the outside world to change its owner …”
Evidently, these people had a deep grudge against Immortal Alliance. Once they were allowed to leave, the seal on Immortal Alliance would be broken. At that time, Tomb of Gods and Demons would undergo a drastic change. After everyone broke out, the chaos in the Eastern Continent would begin. Perhaps even the Immortal Origin Five Regions would be affected.
“It’s not too late. Let’s work together to see if we can open this spatial rift.”
Daoist Gui walked up and exchanged a glance with the others. He immediately began to work. The seven of them had already transformed into spirits. With their combined strength, how could they be idle? The entire valley immediately began to tremble non-stop.
After an incense stick of time passed, the spatial rift could not be opened. Pili Zidian frowned and said, “How could this be …”
“Something’s wrong …”
Daoist Gui frowned and walked closer. He continuously formed seals with both of his hands and inserted a secret technique into the crack. Not long after, a faint string of restrictive runes appeared in the depths of the crack.
“As expected …”
Daoist Gui’s eyes turned fierce. At this moment, his voice became very low. He turned to the people behind him and said, “Come up and look.”
The few of them furrowed their brows and immediately walked forward. When they saw the faint seal of the restriction curse appear in the crack, Pili Zidian’s eyes were about to crack. “Bastard! Even this place was sealed by them. How did they find this place?”
“From the looks of it, it seems to be a seal that was set not long ago.”
Compared to Pili Zidian, Ji Wuyan was much calmer now. After pondering for a while, he said, “The crack here won’t open. Let’s go to the next place.”
Xiao Chen and Luo Die stood behind them without saying anything. The ghost daoist glanced at them and said, “Little friend, please go somewhere else.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Xiao Chen had expected that things would not be so simple, so he immediately left the valley with the few of them and continued on to the next place. Seven days later, he arrived at another place that the ghost daoist had mentioned.
This was also a valley. However, the aura of the Fiendgods was heavier than the previous valley. This time, Xiao Chen was still leading the way, and everyone followed closely behind.
In the depths of the valley, there was indeed a spatial rift. This time, the seven of them worked together to cast a spell. However, it wasn’t long before they discovered that the rift here had actually been sealed.
“How could this be …”
Ji Wuyan slowly frowned. How could there be such a coincidence in the world? Wherever they went, the cracks were sealed.
“I still don’t believe it … Go to the next place!”
At this moment, everyone set off for the next valley. In the following month, they walked through four valleys in a row. However, the spatial rifts in each valley were no exception. When they arrived, they were already sealed, as if someone was deliberately trying to prevent them from leaving.
“No … no …”
Pili Zidian’s gaze gradually turned sharp and his voice became much colder. “Why does the Immortal Alliance seem to know where we go in advance? Wrong … There must be an inner ghost of the Immortal Alliance amongst us!”
“What are you talking about?”
Once these words were spoken, Ji Wuyan and the others knitted their brows tightly. This kind of words could not be said casually. Everyone here had enmity with the Immortal Alliance, how could they be mole?
“Amitabha …”
The few of them looked at each other and suspected each other. Only Ku Chanzi clasped his hands together and closed his eyes to chant a Buddhist chant.
“It’s you … You’re from the Immortal Alliance!”
Pili Zidian’s eyes were fierce as he suddenly pointed at Luo Die. At this moment, the air seemed to have frozen. Everyone remained silent and their gazes fell on the woman standing beside Xiao Chen.
“I…”
Luo Die’s face turned slightly pale as she shook her head, “It’s not me …”
“Not you?”
Pili Zidian walked closer. His gaze was like two sharp sword lights. He coldly said, “Ever since you came, no matter where we went, the Immortal Alliance will know and seal the crack. Isn’t it the spiritual message you sent out?”
“I didn’t!”
Luo Die’s face was pale as she shook her head.
“Sophistry is useless … die!”
Pili Zidian’s killing intent surged. Suddenly, a sword thrust towards her throat. How sharp was this sword? With her cultivation, how could she dodge it? In a critical moment, with a “zheng” sound, the tip of the sword finally stopped in front of her throat.
Xiao Chen reached out and grabbed the sword blade, blood dripping down his palm. He turned his head and looked at Pili Zidian coldly, “There’s no evidence yet, you’re going to kill her?”
“Evidence?”
Pili Zidian’s eyes turned cold. “What evidence is needed for the fact that it’s already in front of you? Other than her, who else can be from Immortal Alliance? Are you from Immortal Alliance? I think you were dazed by the beauty that allowed a person from Immortal Alliance to follow you all the way! Idiot … Get lost!”
“Stop!”
Daoist Gui waved his sleeve and a strange wind blew over, forcefully separating Pili Zidian from Xiao Chen. He said coldly, “Now is not the time for mutual suspicion. Now that all the cracks have been sealed, we should think about how to get out!” Otherwise, once they set up the Heaven Locking Array outside, they will never be able to leave! ”
“I agree with Senior Ghost.”
Ji Wuyan stood out and glanced at the frightened Luo Die. Then, she looked at Pili Zidian and frowned, “Calm down first. There is always a way to solve everything.”
“Humph!”
Pili Zidian snorted coldly before putting away his sword.
Daoist Gui slowly walked over and looked at Xiao Chen. “She’s the one you brought. It’s up to you to decide. But remember this little friend, the God’s Demon Tomb will never allow anyone from Immortal Alliance to appear. You know what to do.”
“This junior naturally knows.”
“Forget it, let’s go. There’s a small town ahead. Let’s go to the town and rest for the night. We’ll think of a way tomorrow.”
…
Leng Yue was silent at night, and the town was especially quiet. The candle fire in the room was still unextinguished. Xiao Chen sat quietly, and Luo Die was carefully bandaging the wound on his palm.
“Are you … feeling better?”
Xiao Chen did not say anything. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that she was motionless, Luo Die saw him looking at her like this. She lowered her head and whispered, “Why are you looking at me like this …”
“Who are you?”
“I…”
Luo Die lowered her head and whispered, “When I was young, the village was destroyed. Afterwards, I was rescued by the East Li Alliance Master …”
“Let me ask you one last time, who exactly are you?”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s eyes suddenly turned cold. Even the candle in the room shook.
