In the next moment, without hesitation, Di Beichen and Baili Hongzhuang fiercely collided with the walls on both sides!
Seeing this scene, Xiao Hei, Xiao Bai, and Bai Shi couldn't help but cover their eyes. It was too cruel!
To directly crash into the walls, if the result was not what their masters intended, then both their masters and Di Beichen would be in trouble.
Boom!
A loud noise echoed in the ears of Baili Hongzhuang and Di Beichen, and they felt like they had hit something solid, but the expected pain did not follow.
Baili Hongzhuang slowly opened her eyes and saw Di Beichen looking at her with a smile on his face.
The darkness in front of them had disappeared at some point, replaced by a brightly lit area.
"My lady, we did it!"
Di Beichen couldn't hide his astonishment in his eyes. He was truly impressed by his lady's intelligence!
He had no understanding of illusions at all. If it weren't for his lady figuring out the flaw in this illusion, they would have wasted a lot of time in the passage.
A faint smile appeared on Baili Hongzhuang's lips. It seemed that her expectations were indeed correct.
In their sight, the passages intertwined and branched out in all directions, with closed stone chambers appearing on both sides of the passages. Some treasures would be placed in these chambers.
When they turned their heads, they realized that everything they had seen before, the darkness and the seemingly endless passage, were all illusions. In reality, the passage was only a short distance of about ten meters.
However, they also saw many cultivators continuing to walk in place, their faces filled with confusion, just like the expressions on their own faces earlier.
On some other paths, there were also numerous corpses.
Seeing this, Baili Hongzhuang's gaze couldn't help but fall on the Chaos Ring in her hand. If it wasn't for the Chaos Ring guiding her to a clear path, she wouldn't have been able to escape from the predicament so easily.
Suddenly, Baili Hongzhuang spotted Xia Zhiqing, who was still walking aimlessly on the other side, and couldn't help but call out, "Zhiqing!"
"Zhiqing, can you hear me?"
However, no matter how Baili Hongzhuang shouted, Xia Zhiqing remained in a daze and couldn't hear her words.
Seeing this, Baili Hongzhuang felt somewhat helpless, but fortunately, the path chosen by Xia Zhiqing and the others was not a dead end, which relieved her.
"Forget it, let's move on." Baili Hongzhuang turned to look at Di Beichen and said.
"Okay!"
Di Beichen nodded, immediately walking forward with Baili Hongzhuang.
Bang!
As a stone chamber was opened, countless dust and smoke billowed out. Baili Hongzhuang and Di Beichen were surprised to find that the chamber contained many martial arts techniques.
The grade of the martial arts techniques was not high, mostly yellow-ranked martial arts. However, they could still fetch a good price if sold.
As Baili Hongzhuang picked up one of the martial arts techniques, she found that it immediately turned into powder and dispersed on the ground.
"It seems that these martial arts techniques have been stored here for too long, and the paper has turned to ashes." Di Beichen sighed with regret.
Martial arts techniques were the essence left behind by many cultivators, and it was a pity to see them disappear like this over time.
Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly, not lingering on the matter, and said, "It seems these papers can no longer be preserved. Let's move on."
"Okay." Di Beichen agreed, "From the extent of these paper's changes, it seems that this relic has been around for at least a few hundred years."
"After such a long time, many treasures have likely lost their usefulness. We can only see if there's anything still worth keeping."
