Su Chen roughly calculated the distance and time he would travel inside the cave. At his speed, he would probably have already crossed the mountains by the time he entered the cave.
But everything around him remained nothingness.
"What happened..."
Su Chen suddenly realized that his senses were being gradually deprived.
The process had already begun the moment he entered the cave.
"I should have brought that little guy in; I was too confident."
Su Chen felt a pang of regret for not bringing the little white fox in.
It was the little guy who guided him to open the hole.
Even if the little white fox couldn't speak, if it had just given him some hints, Su Chen might not have been in such a difficult situation.
Su Chen adjusted his mindset and then tried to use his own strength to see if he could find a way out.
"Is consumption increasing?"
"Whether it's spiritual consciousness or anything else, the feeling of restriction is even more severe?"
Su Chen keenly sensed the changes occurring inside the cave.
However, Su Chen had no good way to deal with all of this and could only make adjustments and try things out little by little.
But Su Chen's methods were destined to be in vain. The changes inside the cave were too rapid, and everything was as turbulent as the tide. Su Chen was like a small boat, and could only accept his fate.
Unable to open the Qiankun Bag, and with the increased energy expenditure, Su Chen quickly found himself in a desperate situation.
Until the moment Su Chen completely lost consciousness, in a hazy state, Su Chen seemed to see the little white fox appear in front of him.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Chen heard the sounds of singing, along with what seemed to be the sounds of chess games.
The moment Su Chen regained consciousness, he sprang up from the ground and cautiously looked around at everything.
To his surprise, Lu Wuyai, whom he had been searching for, was sitting right next to him.
The song he vaguely heard seemed to be hummed by Lu Wuyai himself.
"You're finally awake. I thought you wouldn't wake up."
You are the first person to stay there for more than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
As soon as Lu Wuyai spoke, Su Chen sensed something was wrong.
"Lu Wuyai" seems to be completely different from the person he knew. The Lu Wuyai in front of him is only a facade. He doesn't know who is actually talking to him.
"A stick of incense?"
"Don't be surprised. Once you enter that passage, your senses will change. Everything you perceive will be distorted, whether it's time or anything else. No matter how you calculate it, it won't be what you imagine."
The other party seemed to have seen through Su Chen's thoughts and directly offered an explanation.
"What did you do to Lu Lu Wuyai?"
"Lu Wuyai? Is that the name of this soul?"
A smile appeared on the other person's face, as if they were happy to hear the name.
"who are you?"
"I don't know who I am. I only know that my duty is to guard that passage."
Make all the humans who have wandered in leave, and prevent all the guys from getting out.
As for Lu Wuyai, whom you mentioned, I quite like him.
Why don't you just give it to me?
"Give it to you?"
He's not an object, how can you expect me to give him away?
This person is very important to me; I hope you can let him go!
Chapter 162 Blood Oath
Su Chen stared intently at the guardian in front of him.
The other party did not exude any dangerous aura, but that was what worried Su Chen the most. He couldn't see through the guardian's true nature at all.
"I'm sorry, he's also very important to me."
"So, there's no room for negotiation?"
Su Chen stared intently at the other person, pondering whether or not to make a move.
If a fight breaks out and the opponent cannot be subdued, not only will the individual be in danger, but Lu Wuyai will also be implicated.
"Don't look at me like that. I don't know what you're thinking right now."
"Trying to beat me on my home turf? Isn't that a bit too much of an overconfidence?"
There was no emotional fluctuation on the other person's face.
Although his words were unpleasant, they were all true.
As long as he kicks Su Chen back into that passage, he won't need to do anything more; Su Chen will naturally be worn down and die.
"Since you were able to get past those statues and open the seal on the passageway, it proves that you might have some connection with those guys inside."
I'll give you another option: if you can satisfy me, I'll naturally return your friend to you.
"What conditions?"
Su Chen stared intently at the other person, completely unable to see through the guy in front of him.
"Relax, I won't make a request that you can't fulfill."
I need you to swear that you will never go through the passage and enter the world inside.
After the other person finished speaking, they just looked at Su Chen quietly, as if waiting for his answer.
Su Chen was somewhat bewildered.
He had considered many conditions, but he never expected that he would have to swear an oath.
Moreover, the content of the oath seems so strange.
Is this all you need?
"Nothing else needs to be added?"
Su Chen pressed for details, asking what exactly was on the other side of the passage, as he didn't know for the time being.
But he knew that if he didn't choose to bring Lu Wuyai out, all his subsequent plans would be in vain.
"All it takes is this simple vow."
But I want you to swear a blood oath.
Blood oaths are considered one of the more powerful types of oaths.
Back when the limits of the universe were higher, the control over cultivators was much stricter, and at that time, the vows made were more about the Dao heart.
If one goes against this, their Daoist heart will collapse.
They could no longer comprehend any of the great principles of heaven and earth.
As for breaking a blood oath, the person who made the oath will die on the spot.
That was a constraint bound to the body of the oath-taker, and no one could change it.
"What? Still considering it?"
Is this really the only condition?
"Never lies."
"it is good!"
Su Chen decisively swore a blood oath. This place seemed very strange, but compared to Lu Wuyai, nothing else mattered for the time being.
Just as he had said, after Su Chen made the blood oath, the other party kicked him out of this space, releasing Lu Wuyai's soul along with him.
"There is only one path to enter and exit this world. If you don't come in through the passage, you will never be able to get in."
The guardian looked out of the passage and saw that Su Chen was emanating an aura that he found very unpleasant.
Moreover, he can open the entrance and exit of the passage. Even if Su Chen is not that person, he is definitely connected to that person in some way.
As soon as Su Chen appeared outside, he was immediately surrounded by several people.
Why are you all so nervous?
"Didn't I just go in for a little while?"
Su Chen looked at Hua Jingyun and Jiang Li with some surprise; their tense expressions were genuine.
"A little while?"
You've been inside for ten days now.
If you don't come out soon, the two of us might just barge into that passage.
Jiang Li and Su Chen hesitated outside for a long time. If Su Chen hadn't emphasized before leaving that they shouldn't rush in and should wait for him to come out, they would have been fine.
Otherwise, the two women would have entered the passage long ago.
Ten days?
Has it really been that long?
Su Chen was slightly taken aback when he heard the date. He could not perceive much in the passage, and his sense of the passage of time was even more vague.
In Su Chen's own estimation, he had only stayed inside for half a day at most.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. What did you encounter inside?"
Why did you stay for so long?
Jiang Li looked at Su Chen curiously. They had been waiting outside for so long, and they could feel the demonic energy emanating from him from time to time.
And each time, the demonic aura seems to be slightly different.
