Dual cultivation makes you stronger, everyone else is a prodigy, and I'm the only one slacking

After the group entered the palace gates, they discovered a scene that left them speechless.

Here, towering walls stand in rows, each one seemingly formed from a colossal boulder, with no top or end in sight.

Between the walls, countless passageways were created.

This is clearly a maze puzzle.

It seems that to get deeper into the underground palace, we have to get through this maze.

Yu Luoning and his group were almost the last to enter. When they reached the entrance of the maze, they only found a few paths ahead and a few fellow cultivators standing scattered around.

Some people couldn't resist, so they flew up on their swords and soared to the top of the wall, wanting to get a better view of the entire maze from above.

As a result, it flew halfway down as if it were slammed down from mid-air by an invisible force, crashing to the ground and becoming a bloody mess.

Yu Luoning felt a chill run down her spine as she watched this scene.

Mo Yuntian remained calm and said, "It seems that flying is prohibited here."

The group looked at each other, at a loss for words, and could only obediently continue walking.

After walking for a short while, Yu Luoning discovered that the spiritual energy here was extremely abundant, seemingly more than three times more abundant than outside.

It's obvious that some people had already realized this.

Some people sat cross-legged against the wall, closed their eyes, and practiced their internal energy, guiding spiritual power into their meridians little by little.

Yu Luoning looked on with extreme envy. She hadn't even begun to cultivate the Desolate Bone Chapter of the Great Wilderness Annihilation Scripture she possessed.

Suddenly, I regretted it; I should have known better than to travel with them.

We can't keep everyone waiting for her.

Moreover, she dared not practice his family's cultivation method in front of Li Yunyu.

Yu Luoning touched her nose, took a breath, and once again sensed the density of spiritual energy around her.

Why not ditch a few people halfway through and go meditate by yourself?

She sighed, lifted her foot, and continued walking forward with Mo Yuntian and the others, turning left, turning right, walking straight...

After walking for an unknown amount of time, everyone sensed that something was wrong.

"That's strange, haven't we come back?"

Mo Fei looked up and glanced around, then scratched his head.

Feng Qiguang pointed to a crack in the stone wall, "That's right, we've come back to where we started. This is the third time."

Yu Luoning remained silent, then asked Mo Yuntian, "Senior Mo, have you made any discoveries?"

Mo Yuntian's expression was solemn. He did not answer immediately, but took out a black magic artifact from his sleeve and held it in his palm. He slowly said, "Please take a look, everyone. When I came in, I placed a positioning talisman behind us. It should have been behind me. But now the talisman has been moved to the southwest."

Everyone followed his gaze to the magical artifact, and sure enough, it was just as Mo Yuntian had said.

"So, this maze is moving?" Mo Fei gasped.

Yu Luoning pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, there are only a few ways to solve the maze. You either follow the right-hand rule or the left-hand rule, which means sticking to the wall and always staying to the right or left. Or you can use the backtracking method and mark the path you've already taken. Flying is prohibited here, so you can't get a panoramic view. And these walls can move, so neither the left-hand rule nor the right-hand rule works."

Mo Fei looked completely bewildered. What was he babbling on and on? He couldn't understand a word he was saying.

"So, fellow Daoist, do you have any good ideas?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze fell on Yu Luoning.

Li Yunyu's expression remained calm, with a slight smile playing on his lips, his gaze fixed unwaveringly on Yu Luoning.

Yu Luoning immediately noticed his gaze and froze.

In the chaotic space, the two did all sorts of intimate things, but after they came out, they acted as if nothing had happened, pretending not to know each other.

Along the way, she didn't dare to look at him even once, but he didn't shy away at all. If it weren't for the white silk covering his eyes, Yu Luoning felt that his gaze could solidify and stick to her body.

What's wrong, bro? Can you tone it down a bit?

She quietly moved half a step to the side, but it was no use; the gaze followed her again.

Yu Luoning coughed lightly, forcibly averting her gaze from him, and after glancing around the high wall, said in a serious tone:

"What I mean is, since conventional methods don't work, we have to find a way."

No one spoke; they waited for her to continue.

Yu Luoning raised her hand and pointed straight ahead:

"Go straight and break through all the walls in front of you, one by one. Even if the walls can heal, healing takes time. As long as we break through quickly enough and move fast enough, we can pass through before they close."

Before he finished speaking, Mo Fei's eyes were already shining.

These words pleased him greatly; he had long been annoyed by this maze.

"Great idea!"

Without saying a word, Mo Fei rolled up his sleeves and punched the wall directly in front of him.

With a loud bang, the stone cavern splintered, and a gap suddenly appeared in the wall, through which the passage behind could be vaguely seen.

"Hurry up!"

The five of them quickly passed by.

The next second, the edge of the gap behind me automatically healed, and the broken stones automatically returned to their original shape, fitting together perfectly without any trace of breakage.

Seeing that his method had worked, Murphy burst into laughter. "Next up, let's stick close and not get separated."

Boom! Another traffic jam.

The group smashed their way through the crowd, their rhythm becoming increasingly practiced.

When Mo Fei got tired of smashing things, Li Yunyu took over.

After Li Yunyu cleaved several gaps in the ground with a single sword strike.

Feng Qiguang suddenly spoke, "Stop!"

Everyone paused and turned to look at him.

Feng Qiguang stood still, his gaze fixed on Yu Luoning, pausing for a moment.

Then, subtly shifting away, he said, "Our direction has changed!"

"How did you know?" Mo Fei asked in surprise.

Feng Qiguang did not answer immediately, but took out a small compass from his Qiankun bag. This was not a tracking compass, but another secret treasure of the Feng family.

"I observed the pattern of the wall's movement. It wasn't moving randomly. Here, the order is based on the Heavenly Stems, with ten breaths forming a cycle, and each cycle corresponds to the changes of the Five Elements."

"We were just moving along the gold line, but we're now turning into the water line, so the path has changed."

"That's right!" Mo Yuntian suddenly spoke up.

"This is indeed ordered by the Heavenly Stems, and each shift is regular, but I couldn't figure it out completely. Young Master Feng, you are so accomplished in formations at such a young age, it makes me look at you with new respect."

Mo Fei scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.

He had been exposed to his family's forbidden techniques since childhood and knew a little about them, but he was only a half-baked expert and didn't understand array deduction or rune calculation at all.

Listening to the conversation around him, he was completely bewildered.

Li Yunyu glanced at Feng Qiguang; the Li family's lineage was quite accomplished in the Dao of Nirvana.

However, they were not good at things like magic mazes, and since Feng Qiguang spoke with such certainty, the group had no choice but to follow his lead and turn to the left.

Yunyu broke through the wall in front of them, and the group filed in.

As the group walked to the left, Feng Qiguang turned sideways, raised his hand and pulled Yu Luoning in front of him into his arms. At the same time, a purple arc flashed around him, and the next moment, the two figures disappeared behind the wall.

Everything happened so fast, in the blink of an eye.

With a loud bang, the wall was restored to its original state.

Li Yunyu turned around and stopped in his tracks.
