Chapter 469: Trying to advance
"How so?" Fang Yan's face was full of confusion, and he took two steps back in disbelief, and stood there in a daze.
After a few moments, he seemed to come back to his senses, took two more steps forward, and then stood still.
"I'm still in this valley of death." After a moment, Fang Yan let out a long sigh, his mouth was bitter, and he looked at it with a complicated expression.
Before his eyes, there was nothing.
However, it was this empty space that forcibly blocked his way, so that he could no longer move forward half a step.
The dialect knew that he was out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den. If he hadn't guessed wrong, he would have been trapped in a formation again.
"Alas......"
With a long sigh, Fang Yan sat down in place with some weakness. stared blankly into the distance.
The mountains in the distance were clearly visible, but the dialect could not be sure whether what they saw was real or illusory. But what is certain is that he is still in the valley of death.
Thinking of this, the bitterness at the corners of Fang Yan's mouth became a little thicker. The last glimmer of hope in my heart was shattered.
In fact, when he first appeared in this space, he had already vaguely guessed that he should still be trapped in Death Valley. After all, if Death Valley had come out so easily, it wouldn't have been called Death Valley.
It's just that although he guessed, it was just a guess, and there was still a trace of luck in his heart, hoping that a miracle would happen. Judging from the current situation, it is clear that this miracle did not happen.
Fang Yan couldn't help but let out another sigh, constantly tormented by one predicament after another, so that he was already physically and mentally exhausted.
staring blankly at the front for a long time, Fang Yan took a deep breath, and the gloom in his eyes swept away, only to see that as soon as his palm was turned over, two spiritual weapons appeared in his palm.
"Go!"
Fang Yan shouted softly, and the two spiritual weapons galloped forward like arrows from Xuan.
"Choke!"
Two muffled sounds soon sounded in his ears, and when he looked up, the two spiritual weapons stopped in front of his eyes, as if they were blocked by something, and he couldn't move forward.
Fang Yan shook his head with a wry smile and slowly stood up from the ground. There was no surprise on his face, as if he had expected this to be the case.
If these two spiritual weapons could penetrate out, it would surprise him.
Turning his head to look at the sides, he pointed a little, and the two spiritual weapons turned around in mid-air, and flew in the direction of his right hand.
"Sneer......"
Everywhere the spirit weapon passed, there were all piercing sounds.
Fang Yan stood motionless, but his eyes were slowly moving with the two-year spirit weapon.
A moment later, he urged the two spirit weapons to fly upward, and as he expected, the spirit weapons also stopped after rising more than three zhang high, and could no longer move an inch.
Fang Yan smiled bitterly, withdrew the spiritual weapon, and slowly walked in the opposite direction with his legs.
Through the temptation of the two spiritual weapons just now, he already knew that what trapped him was a circular formation. If he was not mistaken, this formation should be centered on that hot spring.
In this way, this formation is really not small, it is four or five hundred zhang long.
Fang Yan walked slowly along the edge of the formation, his eyes constantly scanning around, hoping to find something unusual.
However, to his great disappointment, he went around the formation in a complete circle and did not find anything unusual. In other words, within this formation, there is no other exit.
Fang Yan's face was pale and he stood in place, a rare flash of fear in his eyes.
Am I going to be trapped here?
How is this possible?
The thought only flashed through his mind before he rejected it.
If there really was no way out of this formation, then when he was teleported here, the giant tiger's reaction couldn't be explained at all.
After all, if this is really a dead end, then the giant tiger doesn't have to stay there at all, and there is no need to stop him at all. Just let him in.
Thinking of this, Fang Yan unwillingly looked around, and the strange thing was that there really didn't seem to be anything abnormal in this formation. There was neither the existence of a teleportation array, nor the spirit beast in sight.
Could it be that it is the same as the previous formation, which will automatically unravel when the time comes?
Thinking of the formation he had been trapped in when he had just entered this Death Valley, his mind came alive again. However, after only two breaths, he shook his head in despair.
He had already absorbed the vitality of this formation for half a month, and if this formation really would be automatically unlocked, I am afraid it would have been unlocked long ago.
"Is anyone there?" Fang Yan suddenly shouted around, "Senior, can you hear me?" β
There was silence all around, and there was no echo.
After waiting for most of a quarter of an hour without receiving a response, the dialect also gave up shouting.
Could it be that it takes longer for this formation to unravel automatically? Fang Yan muttered, then nodded comfortingly.
Yes, this formation is much larger than the original formation, and it seems that it is not impossible to unravel it for a longer time.
Thinking of this, he forcibly suppressed his restless state of mind, and after taking a few deep breaths, he slowly walked back to the hot spring.
With the giant tiger's abnormal behavior before, he could be sure that this formation should not be as simple as just trapping him. Since he passed the test of the giant tiger and was teleported here, there are naturally some reasons.
It's just that he hasn't noticed these reasons yet.
Walking to the hot spring, Fang Yan sat cross-legged and quickly entered the state of cultivation. The vitality here is so rich, he naturally won't waste it in vain. Being idle is also idle, it is better to seize the opportunity to improve your strength.
Since there was nothing abnormal in this formation, he didn't have to enter that picture scroll to cultivate anymore. On the contrary, at this time, he was even expecting some danger. In that case, he would at least have a glimmer of hope of getting out of here.
Feeling the rich vitality immersed in the body, Fang Yan's heart could already be sure that the vitality in this position was indeed richer than the vitality at the edge of the formation.
It's just that why he is like this, he didn't think much about it, abandoned the distracting thoughts in his mind, and meditated on cultivation.
Three days later, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Whoosh!"
As soon as his eyes opened, the transparent blade that floated in front of him trembled slightly, turning into a white light and flying out.
"Chokβ"
A snort sounded violently, and the blade stopped in mid-air more than two hundred zhang away, making it difficult to advance an inch.
Fang Yan shook his head, summoned the spirit weapon back, slowly closed his eyes again, and entered the cultivation state.
In the following time, every three or five days of cultivation, he would wake up and use the spirit weapon to probe around, wanting to see if this formation would be automatically unlocked.
However, what made him very disturbed was that every time he tried to try, it ended in disappointment. In this way, after many times, he slowly became numb. The mood that was a little anxious at first gradually calmed down.
Since he is trapped here, and he has no way to get out, no matter how anxious he is, there is no point in being anxious. He always believed that there must be a reason why he had been teleported here. And even more convinced, he will definitely be able to get out of here.
The reason why I am still trapped in this formation now is that the time to leave here has not yet come. In this case, it is better to seize this opportunity, absorb some more rich vitality, and take the opportunity to improve your strength.
The vitality here is so strong, and the effect of cultivating here for one day is much greater than cultivating in the outside world for three or four days, how could he let go of such a rare opportunity?
Of course, a big reason why he was able to calm down was that the vitality here was very strong. If the vitality here is not much different from the outside world, whether he can be so calm is really a matter of two words.
In this way, in the cultivation of dialect meditation, time passed quietly, and unconsciously, half a year passed in a flash.
In the past half a year, Fang Yan still had to test this formation every three days and five, but the result of the test never surprised him.
It is worth mentioning that as early as a month ago, the vitality in Fang Yan's body had reached a very full state, in other words, his strength had now reached the peak of the Soul Condensing Realm, and he was only one step away from that Condensing Soul Realm.
However, even this step is the distance, and the dialect cannot step on it.
"Hoo ......"
Fang Yan let out a long breath and withdrew from his cultivation.
In the past, the first thing he did when he woke up was to urge the spiritual weapon in front of him to test this formation, but this time, he didn't do it.
"It's been a month...... he muttered softly, his eyes were a little dazed, it had been a month since he had reached the peak of the Soul Condensing Realm.
At this moment, his strength is at least twice as strong as when he first entered this formation. However, after nearly a month of cultivation, the vitality in his body did not change much.
He also knew that he had now entered a bottleneck, if he didn't break through the Soul Condensing Realm and advance to the next realm, no matter how much he cultivated, his strength would not change much.
But what bothered him was that although his current strength had reached the peak of the Soul Condensing Realm, and he had even touched the threshold of the Soul Realm, for some reason, he just couldn't step into that realm, and he was never able to pierce that layer of film.
It was the first time he had encountered such a situation since he had cultivated, and for a while, it made him a little confused.
After a long while, Fang Yan took a deep breath, and after a moment of silence, he seemed to have decided something, gritted his teeth, sat cross-legged, and quickly entered the cultivation state.
This time, he was going to try to shock the soul return.
