Feng Wanli did not agree with Li Cheng’s words. A person who could crush a Tribulation Loose Immortal with a flick of his hand, claiming this place was dangerous?
Li Cheng glanced at Feng Wanli, “Within a radius of 25,000 miles, there are more than ten demon beasts stronger than you, and three of them are not weaker than your old ancestor. Is that not dangerous?”
“And this is just the peripheral zone of this region. Further ahead, who knows what more formidable beings we might encounter!”
Li Cheng’s words immediately caused Feng Wanli’s expression to change slightly, and he fell silent. It wasn’t that he was cowardly, but this made him realize, just how unfathomably deep the waters of the Kunlun Realm were!
Within just tens of thousands of miles, such powerful beings lay hidden; the closer one gets to the core, the stronger beings one would inevitably meet. If these beings were to escape out there, it would be a colossal trouble!
All the major sects have Lower Realm people who have reached the Complete level of a Heavenly Immortal, but these Lower Realm people are mere specks of dust in front of these terrifying beings!
The waters, they are too deep!
“Taoist Friend Ye, these demon beasts and the like inside, they won’t run out, will they?” Feng Wanli quickly asked.
Ye Chenfeng shook his head, “I’m not sure about that. The entrance clearly allows free passage, but those demon beasts are strange; they won’t even step into this valley!”
“A few times, when I was chased by demon beasts, they stopped pursuing me the moment I fled into the valley. I deliberately tested this and came to a conclusion: these demon beasts are unwilling to enter the valley.”
“But I dare not say they won’t leave. It’s probably just that they are unwilling, or simply don’t want to.”
Li Cheng pondered. It was like a safety zone!
Could it be that some force is preventing them?
But no matter what, this was good news.
“Li Cheng, why don’t you capture a wise demon beast and ask it?” Feng Wanli said.
Upon reaching a certain level of cultivation, demon beasts would develop Spiritual Wisdom and gain the ability to speak human language.
And as they continue to cultivate, the blood within their bodies might break through the shackles, transforming into Spirit Beasts, Immortal Beasts, or even the legendary Divine Beasts.
“Wiry bother with that? Let’s go and investigate that abandoned city first.”
Having said this, Li Cheng soared into the sky.
Avoiding demon beasts and Natural Arrays all along the way, after a while, the abandoned city that Ye Chenfeng mentioned appeared in the trio’s sight.
The city was not large, occupying just over ten miles. What came into view was nothing but broken walls and ruins; even the thick city walls had collapsed in numerous places.
“It looks like a city where mortals lived. Is there anything worth investigating here?” Feng Wanli took a moment to look around and then spoke.
Disappointment showed on Ye Chenfeng’s face. “In all these years, this is my first time arriving in front of the city, and I did not expect it to be like this.” “But since we’ve come all this way, why not go in and take a look?”
As Ye Chenfeng was about to fly into the city, Li Cheng quickly grabbed him, “Don’t rush. There’s a Time Formation!”
The abandoned city might seem ordinary, but Li Cheng’s perception could not be fooled; the entire city was shrouded in a Time Formation!
Perhaps because the Formation had existed for too long, the Time Law in this region was far more active than in other places.
“In my Taoist Mysterious Sect’s Universe Mystery Tower, thirty days inside equate to only one day outside. What about the Time Formation of this abandoned city?” Feng Wanli asked, his tone filled with pride.
Li Cheng glanced at Feng Wanli, “The opposite. This Time Formation has slowed down the flow of time. If my senses are correct, entering it for a day would mean that about one hundred thousand days have passed in the outside world, which is nearly two hundred seventy-four years!”
Feng Wanli’s face froze. His pride in the Universe Mystery Tower paled in comparison to this Time Formation!
Moreover, this Formation slowed down time; why would someone arrange such a Formation?
The deceleration by a factor of one hundred thousand was utterly insane!
“If we go in there, we’d be making a huge mistake. Shall we continue on our way and see what else is here?” Feng Wanli coughed dryly.
Indeed, a mistake could be made; entering for even a brief moment would certainly cause one to miss a lot of things happening outside.
Li Cheng smiled, “What I’m talking about is the effect on mortals. The higher one’s cultivation, the weaker its influence on the flow of time. If you go in, it’s probably just a hundredfold difference.”
Ye Chenfeng withdrew his gaze, “Then that’s strange. This place must have been inhabited by mortals in the past. With such a formation, they couldn’t possibly leave the city, right?”
Li Cheng nodded, “This formation doesn’t have any trace of being artificially arranged; it is completely naturally formed. It’s very likely that a Universe Mystery Stone fell here and under special conditions, formed a formation that envelops the entire city.”
Feng Wanli clicked his tongue; he knew that Li Cheng was looking for the Universe Mystery Stone, and here it might be, in the city.
This luck was simply unmatched.
But the prerequisite is to break the formation first; otherwise, it would likely be difficult to enter the city.
However, Li Cheng still did not take action and was contemplating all the possibilities.
First of all, the Universe Mystery Stone would not run away. If it appeared here now, it might have been left by someone who came here in the past. But why would they leave it?
Secondly, could it be that the Universe Mystery Stone had developed spiritual wisdom, or even took up the path of cultivation and came here on its own?
To be able to produce an influence of a hundred thousandfold on the speed of time, this Universe Mystery Stone, was not simple!
Therefore, Li Cheng was more inclined to the second possibility.
Thinking this, Li Cheng said, “You guys take a look around; there are plenty of treasures from heaven and earth in this vicinity. I will try to break the formation first.”
“No problem!” Feng Wanli spoke and signaled to Ye Chenfeng, “Let’s go, we shouldn’t stray too far, just wander around nearby.”
Just as they were about to leave, Feng Wanli seemed to have thought of something and turned around, smiling cheerfully, “Let’s negotiate something!”
Li Cheng looked at him, waiting for what he would say next.
Feng Wanli said, “I’m in a really dangerous state right now. Lend me the Dark Talisman Immortal Robe, and I’ll return it to you when we get out.”
“Didn’t you say that with me around, there’s no danger?”
Feng Wanli shook his head repeatedly, “But you are about to break the formation, right? No one will protect me during that time, hehe, after all, the Dark Talisman Immortal Robe is just an unexpected fortune, it’s just a few days’ borrow, don’t be stingy.”
Li Cheng casually tossed the Dark Talisman Immortal Robe to Feng Wanli, “Then be careful. When I searched the soul, I saw that the robe was taken by the wearer a few hundred years ago after slaying a strong person from the Ten Thousand Evils Cave.”
The implication was clear; whoever possessed this item would be pursued by the Ten Thousand Evils Cave.
If it wasn’t returned, then one should await the Ten Thousand Evils Cave’s arrival!
It was unclear whether Feng Wanli understood Li Cheng’s implication, but he cheerfully accepted it, his expression one of joy at having found a backer.
As the two left, Li Cheng sat down cross-legged in front of the gates of what once was a city and began his enlightenment!
The Time Law here was extremely active, especially on the formation. It must have been the Time Formation and the Universe Mystery Stone that attracted it over the years.
Comprehending this Time Formation would undoubtedly lead to rapid comprehension of the Time Law.
Furthermore, after realizing it, breaking the formation would naturally be a simple task.
Now he had only eighty strands of Time Law, with twenty-one chances for enlightenment; it was unknown how much he could advance the Time Law. “Eh? Master Li mentioned breaking the formation but entered an enlightenment state instead?”
The two who had just flown not too far away both turned around simultaneously, Ye Chenfeng exclaimed in astonishment.
At this moment, Li Cheng seemed to merge with heaven and earth; they could certainly recognize that it was the state of enlightenment!
After a moment, the two recovered from their surprise, and Feng Wanli curiously said, “Taoist Friend Ye, besides demon beasts, there shouldn’t be any other creatures here, right?”
Ye Chenfeng smiled awkwardly, “I’m not sure, but since there’s a deserted city, I suspect… What is that!”
