Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2538 (Two Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty-Eight) Rope Ball

"It sank?" Tie Wandao said to Tie Jinjue, "What does this mean? Is the entrance very deep?"

Tie Jinjue said: "I can't tell. I don't know if that thing will just disappear into the ground or turn into something else."

After Li Pingrun made some more movements, he walked towards the place where the cone-shaped hard cover sank.

"He seems to be going to see that place." Tie Wandao said.

"Well, it seems so." Tie Jinjue said.

When Li Pingrun walked there, he saw that the cone-shaped hard cover had sunk into the mud and had turned into a nail under the effect of the magic he used later.

The nail was firmly embedded in the ground. It didn't look like it was stuck in the mud after the rain. Instead, it looked like it was nailed there, motionless and very strong.

Li Pingrun took out a long rope used for rituals from his bag, tied one end of the rope to the nail, then half-knelt down, pulled the other end of the rope, and moved away from the nail.

"I really don't know what he is doing." Tie Wandao said while watching from a distance, "It looks like that thing just now didn't disappear. It may still be there, but it sank, or like you said, it turned into something else. Otherwise, Li Pingrun wouldn't be squatting there as if he was moving something." Tie Wandao said.

"His movements seemed like he was pulling something." Tie Jinjue said, "but I can't see clearly."

"I can't see clearly, but it does look like it's pulling something," said Tie Wandao.

After Li Pingrun straightened the rope used for the ritual, he picked up a straighter branch from the ground and tied the other end of the rope to the branch, fixing it in place. He inserted the branch vertically into the soil, but only a short distance.

At this moment, the rope is very close to the ground and parallel to the ground.

The nail and the branch in his hand were both perpendicular to the ground.

Li Pingrun walked back for a while and started to perform the ritual again.

As he performed the ritual, the branch circled around the nail in the middle.

As the branch turned, the rope was always stretched straight, and the branch had drawn a very large circle with the nail as the center and the rope as the diameter.

After Li Pingrun stopped performing the ritual, he approached the branch.

At that time, the branch was still perpendicular to the ground.

Li Pingrun untied one end of the rope from the branch, rolled it up with his hand and walked towards the nail.

When he got closer to the nail, he already had a ball of rope in his hand.

He squatted down again, untied the other end of the rope from the nail, wound the rope around, and put the rope he had wound into a ball into his bag.

At this time, he stood in the circle drawn by the branch and performed a ritual on the nail.

Soon the nail disappeared into the soil.

After Li Pingrun finished his ritual, he walked towards Tie Jinjue and Tie Wandao.

Tie Wandao said to Tie Jinjue: "Judging from his behavior this time, he should have completed the ritual."

Tie Jinjue said: "It's coming towards us."

After Li Pingrun greeted the two, Tie Wandao asked, "How is it going? Do you understand the situation underground?"

"Actually, I'm not sure whether what I vaguely saw when I was performing the ritual was the situation underground here." Li Pingrun said.

"What did you see when you performed the ritual?" Tie Wandao asked.

"I vaguely saw those white pillars again." Li Pingrun replied.
