Chapter 14: The Cave Without End
Fantasy is better than action, since it has been determined with a high probability that this is not a phantom array, Luo Gan naturally will not waste time in the same place.
No matter how the space here has changed, since it is not a phantom array, there will always be an end. If you can't walk 2,000 steps, take 3,000 steps, if you can't walk 3,000 steps, take 5,000 steps, and if you can't do 5,000 steps, then take 10,000 steps. Anyway, when he walked here, Rogan didn't feel any slowly increasing pressure, or even feel tired.
......
Reality is always much crueler than imagined. Five thousand four hundred and twenty steps, which was the number of steps Rogan had taken so far, was still the same black cave, and there was no sign of the end except that the appearance of the stone was indeed different from before.
Thirteen thousand six hundred and twenty-one steps, Rogan is no longer as excited as he was when he first entered the cave, the unchanged scenery is still dark with no end in sight, and Rogan's heart is gradually becoming more and more numb.
In the midst of this, Luo Gan actually wondered if he had been deceived by a more intelligent illusion array, so every time he walked a distance, Luo Gan would stop and expand his divine sense to explore every inch of land. It's a pity that Rogan didn't find anything, except that his spirit was tossed and he was even more exhausted.
However, although the spirit is tired, the body rarely feels tired at all. Rogan himself was also surprised, although his body was quite good, it was impossible not to feel at all after walking such a long distance. But as curious as he was, Rogan really didn't have the energy to think about it.
......
Thirty-five thousand six hundred and thirty-eight steps, at this time Rogan was still struggling to remember the number of steps taken, but he didn't think about anything else. As for how much time it took, I didn't have the time to think about it for a long time. He no longer stopped to observe with his senses, and Rogan's brain was almost completely empty, and his face had lost his trademark languid smile.
If anyone saw Luo Gan's appearance at this time, they might wonder if he had been trained as a puppet by some evil cultivator. His face was expressionless, his eyes were hollow, and his brows were furrowed tightly from a long period of high concentration, and his constantly moving steps were more like puppets being manipulated. The dark and deep cave is more like a desolate beast that chooses people to devour, and wants to swallow Luo Gan's bones, which makes people shudder.
In fact, neither Luo Gan nor the other disciples who entered the cave before were aware of a key problem, and there was actually not a trace of spiritual power felt in this cave. Luo Gan didn't find out because he couldn't feel the spiritual power in the first place, and the other disciples didn't notice this problem due to the increasing pressure.
No matter where you are in the cultivation realm, you can feel the existence of spiritual power, it is just a difference between abundant and not. For the monks, spiritual power is no less important than ordinary people who need to breathe air, although it will not directly affect their lives, but in an environment where spiritual energy is thin, cultivation will not only fail to progress but will also regress. Retrogression is even more uncomfortable than killing these monks.
Monks need spiritual power, let alone magic circles. Now, if Luo Gan can still think normally, he should understand, and after a little analysis, he can understand that this cannot be a phantom array. So since it's not a phantom array, what is it that makes the space change?
It's a pity that at this time, Rogan has no way to do some deep thinking, and the only thing he has to do now is to move forward step by step.
......
How many steps? 50,000 or 60,000? Forget it, if you can't remember it, you won't remember it. It's strange, why doesn't my body feel tired? Is this still my body?
Stop, stop and let me rest. Damn, why, why do you have to go any further? Are you still my legs? Do you have to go down to the next two legs and still want to control my brain?
Rogan still walked like the walking dead. His spirit had become so sluggish that he was about to fall asleep when he was standing, but his legs were still speeding forward briskly. By this time, Rogan had long since lost his sense of the cave, and now he felt like a sailor drowning in the sea. Ah, I can swim, I can rush up, but the surrounding sea water is desperately squeezing my body, even rushing into my mouth and into my internal organs. What does it feel like to swim desperately to shore but keep sinking down, is it despair?
......
At the same time, outside the entrance of the cave, Hao Lei, who was talking about Mengxue, was secretly talking.
"Senior sister, did you say that the old man from the Red Sword Gate came over this time because the fifth junior brother told him that we have a secret realm here?" Hao Lei asked a little melancholy as she looked at the sky.
"Why bother asking me, don't you already have the answer in your own mind? I told you not to contact him too much. You see, what do you get in exchange for your kindness? A person who betrays once will naturally betray a second time. Tan Mengxue returned coldly.
Hao Lei looked at Tan Mengxue angrily, "Don't let you say that! He, he must have a hard time." Maybe the old man with the red sword was so vile and shameless that he made him? I don't believe he was like that. ”
"But the man you spoke of as despicable and shameless is now his master. Maybe he is no longer the person you and I knew at the beginning. Tan Mengxue's words were still cold, but there was still a slight sadness in them.
"Alright, that's the end of the topic. I don't believe that Shizun and Senior Brother are unaware of this, since Senior Brother didn't mention it to you, then don't talk about it anymore, not to mention that Shizun's disgust for this kind of betrayal person is also known to you. Tan Mengxue interrupted Hao Lei's words and put an end to the matter.
Hao Lei pouted, full of unhappiness, and felt very uncomfortable thinking that the junior brother she trusted so much had betrayed her. I can only find other topics to transfer my feelings, "Then Senior Sister, did you say that Senior Brother will get the inheritance in the secret realm?"
"Of course. Tan Mengxue has great confidence in Luo Gan, "I can trust the strength of the senior brother. Senior Brother would normally be able to cultivate his body and divine consciousness to that level without feeling spiritual power, and these things would not stump him. What's more, didn't the master say that this is the opportunity of the senior brother. Have you ever seen Master Zun lie?"
"That being said, we don't know what the situation is inside. Hao Lei looked at the entrance of the cave and said worriedly.
Senior brother will definitely succeed, definitely. Tan Mengxue silently refueled Luo Gan in her heart.
