Chapter 8: The Labyrinth

Along the way, Shen Yuan actually encountered many small but delicate sacrificial traps, which seemed a little out of place with the blessing sacrificial techniques on the mountain rocks, and seemed to have been attached to the passage later, so they still kept running.

However, for Shen Yuan, the faint elemental fluctuations emanating from these sacrificial traps were the most obvious hints, which were tantamount to inserting a warning sign next to the mine, and he naturally walked around them all without getting into any trouble.

But this is a labyrinth in front of him, so the appearance of these sacrificial traps is a little intriguing.

Ever since he stepped into the ruins of this snow-capped mountain, he had always had a faint worry in his heart, but now he couldn't help but be cautious when he saw the undisguised killing moves in this labyrinth.

After thinking for a while, Shen Yuan took out the ball red from his ear.

This mutant fire dog was born with the ability to be a clone, and at that moment, Shen Yuan made Qiu Hong differentiate into hundreds of small Mingguang Soul Fire Dogs, leaving her Origin Soul by her side, and other inconsequential Fire Dog clones all ran out along the passages in different directions.

Since this labyrinth had already revealed its killing intent, Shen Yuan felt that he couldn't run around it like a headless fly. If he walked into an even more terrifying method, Shen Yuan didn't think that he would be able to escape from this unfathomable place one hundred percent.

Shen Yuan's spiritual power has always been connected with Qiu Hong's origin soul, and with the spread of hundreds of fire dogs, a maze that gradually completes appeared in Shen Yuan's mind.

He also found many people and corpses of the expedition, and the number of fire dog clones was reduced by more than a dozen, some were killed by Tibetan monks and shadow dancers, and some were less likely to step on the traps in the labyrinth.

Shen Yuan couldn't help but feel distressed, the ball red with a strange flame nature could be said to be a big hole card for him, especially when facing an enemy who was known for his spiritual power, Mingguang Soul Fire could win by surprise almost every time.

And the death of each fire dog clone of Qiu Hong, although it is not fatal, will weaken her next combat power and make the hole cards in Shen Yuan's hand thin.

In addition, Shen Yuan also found another person he had been worried about.

After more than ten minutes, a pitch-black kitten, led by a fire dog clone, came out of a corner of the maze, with some burns on its fur, and trotted to Shen Yuan's side.

Shen Yuan hugged Xiao Erhei, soothed the wounds on her body with gentle water elemental energy, and said softly: "I can be regarded as finding you, let's go together, and after a while, Qiu Hong should be able to explore the entire maze." ”

Cheng Ruan, who had been hiding in the shadows and following Shen Yuan's actions, saw him but did not feel relaxed, but said anxiously: "You must be fast, you use the water element to draw the area that you have explored now, and when we see the edge of this maze, we should be able to guess where the center point of the maze is from the angle, and we will go in that direction." Shen Yuan, we must be fast, we could be killed here at any time......"

When Shen Yuan heard this, he immediately formed a water-blue labyrinth top-down view with the water element, and displayed the information transmitted to him by the ball red through the spiritual power connection in front of Cheng Ruan.

"What is the danger?" asked Shen Yuan in a low voice.

Xiao Erhei squatted in Shen Yuan's arms, a pair of bright yellow cat's eyes looked back and forth on the aqua blue maze, and said quickly: "What we are stepping on now should be the base of the huge stone statue above, to be precise, the position we are in is the inside of the stone statue." ”

"When the stone statue was made, the shape of the labyrinth was cut out in advance, and it is a seamless whole on weekdays. But when the stone statue rises, the top and bottom of the labyrinth will separate, and the labyrinth will appear. And when the statue fell back again, the tens of millions of tons of stones above our heads sank, the labyrinth closed and disappeared, and we were all crushed into flesh. ”

As Cheng Ruan spoke, the light in his eyes suddenly lit up, and he jumped up from Shen Yuan's arms, his cat's paw pointed to a corner of the water element projection, and shouted in a low voice: "This is here, the road is broken, this is one of the edges, let the clones near Qiu Hong concentrate on exploring this area, abandon the surrounding area, and the clones in the distance explore the opposite side of this place." ”

Shen Yuan naturally did as he said, and after a while, a specific maze situation appeared in the area that Cheng Ruan pointed to.

Cheng Ruan patted his claws and said: "Sure enough, it's a circle! This is easy to do, the center point is in that direction, let's go." Let the ball red clone abandon all areas and explore all the forks in that direction. ”

Hearing Cheng Ruan's order, Shen Yuan immediately hugged Xiao Erhei and ran wildly.

Cheng Ruan hugged him for a while, only to find that the speed was a little slow, stretched out his cat's claws and slapped Shen Yuan's chest, jumped out of Shen Yuan's arms with the help of the anti-shock force, his body became larger and turned into a black panther, and gradually disappeared into the air.

"You become a wolf and run, how fast and how fast you run!"

A sentence floated out from where Cheng Ruan disappeared.

The dark cyan spiritual power light flashed, and Shen Yuan turned into a giant wolf with a transparent pale cyan body, spreading its four paws and running wildly in the maze.

Originally, his ghost form was a dark white giant wolf, but in the past few months, the sword-shaped battle pattern of Great Wuyan has purified his spiritual power every moment in his sea of consciousness, and has achieved certain results, and it has gradually changed the appearance of his ghost form.

In order to facilitate Cheng Ruan's observation behind him, the labyrinth projection formed by the water element has been kept above Shen Yuan's head, with the ball red clone as a pioneer to provide information, and Cheng Ruan's command in the back, Shen Yuan's speed of advance is not much faster than before, and the distance from the center is rapidly approaching.

With the information provided by Shen Yuan, Cheng Ruan finally had a direction to move forward, so that she would not run around like just now, and she stepped on the place where Shen Yuan had stepped before she walked, if the two of them would leave footprints on the ground, they could see two footprints that overlapped perfectly, without exception. In this way, the sacrificial traps that were densely packed in the labyrinth could not affect the two of them at all.

Just as the two of them were moving forward quickly, Shen Yuan suddenly noticed the two energy fluctuations gathered together, his heart moved, he stopped, and the water element projection on his head suddenly disappeared.

Two fast-moving footsteps sounded from the passage around the corner in front of him, and when Shen Yuan had just turned into a human form, two Tibetan monks came out of the corner.

The two looked at Shen Yuan in amazement, and one of them frowned and said, "You are walking very fast." ”

An ecstatic smile welled up on Shen Yuan's face, and he said, "Two masters!

"How did you get here?" asked another Tibetan monk.

Shen Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "I'...... I've only had three forks in the road...... It wasn't far from here when I came down. ”

The two Tibetan monks looked at each other suspiciously, and the puzzled expressions on their faces dissipated slightly.

Shen Yuan said at the right time: "Two masters, let me lead the way, I know which direction to go." ”

As he spoke, Shen Yuan took out a compass formed by stones from behind his back, which exuded obvious energy fluctuations.

The eyes of the two Tibetan monks flashed, and one of them stepped forward and unceremoniously snatched the compass from Shen Yuan's hand, and studied it up and down, fiddling with it, not figuring out how this stone that emitted energy fluctuations worked, but this compass did have a rough pointer on it, pointing to a word "sheng" that was carved crookedly.

"What is this?" the Tibetan monk asked.

Shen Yuan scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I picked it up on the ground when I was exploring it just now, and I didn't tell everyone...... Thinking that going out might be able to sell for a good price. ”

"But who knew that as soon as I entered this labyrinth, this compass began to glow, pointing me in the direction of progress, and if I went in the opposite direction, the heat on this compass would get higher and higher, and it would be a little hot. ”

The Tibetan monk tried it and found that it was indeed as Shen Yuan said, if he went in the opposite direction, the compass would indeed glow and vibrate violently, and he looked disagree.

"I'll keep this compass for you first, let's go!" The Tibetan monk unceremoniously took the compass in his hand and strode forward.

Shen Yuan followed behind this Tibetan monk, and another Tibetan monk fell behind Shen Yuan intentionally or unintentionally, sandwiching Shen Yuan in the middle.

In the half minute that Shen Yuan and the two Tibetan monks were talking nonsense, Cheng Ruan was very impatient and sent out several signals to attack, all of which were vetoed by Shen Yuan.

Cheng Ruan felt that with the strength of the two of them, he could completely achieve the effect of killing these two Tibetan monks by surprise.

Shen Yuan had more concerns because he had a lot of information that he didn't have time to share with Cheng Ruan, and he was unwilling to kill the two Tibetan monks here, so as not to cause a situation that was unfavorable to them.

The two Tibetan monks sandwiched Shen Yuan in the middle, walked forward for a while, and when they passed a fork in the road, the Tibetan monk in front of him was in a hurry to see the compass in his hand, and he stepped on a sacrificial trap.

In an instant, thunder burst out from the Tibetan monk's feet, and the twisted electric snake crawled all over the Tibetan monk's body in a blink of an eye, although it did not kill this subtle realm, but fixed him in place, stiff and unable to move for half a minute.

A sharp and condensed wind blade shot out of thin air and slashed at him from the back of the Tibetan monk's head.

The Tibetan monk felt the wind element fluctuating violently in the air, but his muscles were paralyzed, and it was extremely difficult to move his fingers, let alone deal with the extremely fast wind blade behind him.

The Tibetan monk standing behind Shen Yuan naturally noticed the danger of his companion, and almost didn't think about it, he pushed Shen Yuan behind his back with a palm, wanting to push Shen Yuan behind his companion and inherit this wind blade for him.

Boom!

The fierce look on the Tibetan monk's face froze the moment his palm made contact with Shen Yuan's body.

He felt that he was pushed against a hard copper wall, Shen Yuan's body did not fly like a fallen leaf as he imagined and collided with the wind blade, but like a hard mountain rock, firmly standing in place, the thrust in his hand seemed to be a mud cow into the sea, and did not set off half a wave.
