"What's going on? Why are the walls here starting to glow? It was still dark when we came in just now."
"Yes, when we entered the passage for the first time just now, there was no situation of blocking the way back. I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult to escape this time!"
Many survivors were a little panicked. They were all ordinary evolvers, and they only had the life level of the early Black Iron stage.
At this time, something unexpected happened, and everyone was a little at a loss.
"The secret realm has reached three thousand people, and the trial has begun."
A strange voice appeared directly in his mind. Wang Ce was slightly startled at first, and then looked at the others with his eyes.
Sure enough, everyone looked around with some confusion.
"Did you hear that voice too?"
Zhou Banshan was born in the military, so he didn't make so many twists and turns, and he didn't hide his clumsiness. He just asked questions directly.
"That's right, the secret realm is full of 3,000 people, and the trial has begun!"
The burly man from before was also a little confused.
"There are only thirty-eight of us. Even if we include the lost Professor Yuan Zhenhua and the dozen or so people rescued by the military, we will not exceed a hundred people. Why does that voice say that there are already three thousand people?"
"Could it be that the cave we entered through is not the inheritance of Gonggong?"
Zhou Banshan was a little confused. If it was really Gonggong's inheritance, why didn't he even have a decent magic weapon or spell?
"The meaning of what I said just now seems to be that three thousand people gathered together and then entered some kind of trial together."
Wang Zhi thought for a moment and then continued.
"Obviously, this is not the inheritance of Gonggong. It should be the entrance to the trial of the Gonggong clan."
"No wonder we didn't encounter any danger after entering the passage just now. I guess it's because this is a test before the trial!"
"Let's move forward, there is no turning back."
The group of people had no choice but to move forward. The surrounding walls seemed to glow. Even without turning on the flashlight, they could clearly see the situation in the passage.
The material of the passage seems to be wooden, with wooden texture on it.
Thinking about this, Wang Ce touched the somewhat hot Buzhou Tong Tianzhu, thoughtfully.
Perhaps this passage is also related to the Buzhou Tong Tianzhu, and may even be made of the same material.
After all, the Irrespective Heavenly Pillar is just like a wooden stake, and it can be as big or small as you want, and this passage can also be deformed. I think they have something in common.
Everyone walked forward for about ten minutes, but it seemed like they couldn't see the end. It was a test of their mentality.
"I say young man, there is no other way if we keep going like this. This passage is endless, and we will die here sooner or later."
Some of the survivors who were already exhausted couldn't help but speak. Wang Ce couldn't help but slow down and looked at Youyou aside.
"Brother Wang Ce, my teleportation ability seems to be restricted. The space here is very weird and I am not allowed to travel through it."
Youyou has been very scared since entering Gonggong Cave, and this is the first time she speaks.
"It seems that this weird passage is not caused by space. It must be controlled by some unknown force!"
If it were something like a space node, Yoyo could definitely break through.
But now, even Youyou with space powers is restricted, which means that this place should be man-made.
"How about we try to go back?"
Zhou Banshan has completely recovered now, but at this moment, he had a sudden thought.
The reason why he and the survivors were able to return to the original cave was probably because they all walked backwards.
"You can try it."
Until there is no better way, Wang Ce can only try blindly and keep trying.
It would be great if Ge Ji was here. The fat man is full of tricks and knows a lot, so he may not be able to do anything.
The group of people started walking back, and sure enough, after walking thirty meters back, they had reached the end.
"We just walked forward about a kilometer, but now we can only go 30 meters when we look back!"
"I see!"
Wang Ce's eyes lit up, and many survivors looked over excitedly.
"Young man, what did you find?"
"Now even the cave we went back to has been flooded by the water. Now we are praying not to go back."
"Yes, at least there is fresh air here. If you accidentally return to that cave and get drowned in the lake, I'm afraid you really won't survive for long!"
When everyone heard that Wang Ce had discovered something, they all gathered around excitedly.
It's not that they don't want to make progress, but that they have tried countless methods before, but they all ended in failure.
At this moment, Wang Ce was able to make a discovery, which was naturally a huge breakthrough.
"I haven't found a way out of this predicament, but I think I should have figured out some principles."
Everyone was a little disappointed when they heard Wang Ce's previous sentence, but the last sentence once again brought a glimmer of hope.
"Young man, tell me, it's better than being trapped here."
"Yeah, it's not a problem to just keep walking like this. If you talk about it, maybe you can really figure out the answer."
Wang Ce didn't show off and said directly.
"Obviously, we are now like the tracks of a tank. No matter how we walk, there will be a road in front of us and behind us."
"We can think of the channel as a ship. It protects us from being disturbed by external objects."
"So, as long as some people stand still and the other people speed up and move forward, one boat will become two boats, protecting the safety of the two waves of people respectively."
"This is also the reason why you guys are separated from Professor Yuan Zhenhua, because the distance between you is too big, and the ship is so long, so it was divided into two."
"Furthermore, this also reasonably explains why the passage is very safe and does not actively attack people. However, if someone is waiting to attack the ship and wants to break the protective circle, he will naturally be regarded as a saboteur by the ship, so that's why Will be attacked."
"So I speculate that as long as we master the way this ship moves forward, it will be possible to reach the other side!"
Wang Ce's words made everyone's eyes light up. In fact, the reason was very simple, but everyone didn't think about it in the first place.
"Yeah, we always thought this was a dangerous place. We just thought about its weirdness and weirdness, and didn't think about protecting us at all. According to what you said, it really might be like this."
"According to what you said, it's easy to understand why we walked back to the cave."
"There was a scientific experiment before where a man was thrown into the desert and asked to walk in a straight line. The man thought he was walking in a straight line, but in fact he was drawing a very big circle!"
"Perhaps we really lack a compass. As long as we find this direction, it is really possible to control this ship!"
Everyone's minds began to become active. If this was indeed what Wang Ce speculated, it would be a major discovery.
Not only will there not be any danger, you may even get opportunities and treasures!
After all, the voice just now said clearly that the three thousand people are full and the trial has started.
Obviously, in ancient times, this should be some kind of trial road to temper the younger generations.
Since it is a trial, there are definitely dangers, but relatively speaking, there will also be certain rewards.
Zhou Banshan also squinted his eyes slightly, but said thoughtfully: "According to what you said, your fat friend has probably found a way to use this boat!"
"At that time, he was taking that woman with him, and he kept talking plausibly, talking about strange things like Qi Men Dun Jia, the position of the universe, and so on. And I saw many times that he took the female college student who was with you and hit the wall. .”
"At that time I thought they were sick, but now that I think about it, I'm afraid that fat man knew something."
Wang Ce grasped the key point, and then his eyes suddenly lit up and he said excitedly.
"Hit the wall? I think I might know the answer!"
"Five Elements Great Escape, Wood Escape!"
In the horrified eyes of everyone, Wang Ce walked towards the passage wall on the side, and then passed through the passage wall!
"Sure enough, this passage is made of wood!"
"Although this is not an extraordinary tree, it is still of the wood genus and can be traversed by wood escape!"
Wang Ce became a little excited. Although he didn't fully master Wood Release, he only mastered some superficial skills, but it was enough for him to break through the barrier, stand on the mast of this "ship", and take a look at the real scenery!
Soon, Wang Ce traveled to the edge of this "ship". He did not dare to travel any further because he could already feel the danger outside.
From this perspective, he finally understood how this "ship" operated!
It's right above your head!
Feeling the rapid consumption of spiritual energy in his body, Wang Ce did not dare to delay and quickly retreated.
After emerging from the passage wall, Wang Ce gasped for breath, thinking to himself that the Thirty-Six Tiangang Techniques were really not something he could perform at the moment.
Even just some fur will consume a huge amount of spiritual energy.
In comparison, Shunpo can only be regarded as a minor technique, while the Thirty-Six Techniques of Tiangang are real techniques.
It seems that only by reaching the Bronze level can one truly come into contact with the power of these spells.
He has heard more than once that the bronze level is the beginning of cultivation. After reaching the bronze level, you can be called a perfect person!
The body will be flawless and perfect, it can return to its innate nature, and its abilities will be completely awakened!
"How are you, young man? Did you find anything?"
There was a middle-aged man who looked at Wang Ce with a somewhat reserved look.
If it had been before the white mist broke out, he wouldn't have had to do this.
But after the white mist broke out, the world has completely changed, and the rules and order of the past naturally do not apply to the present.
Nowadays, strength is paramount and the strong are respected. Wang Ce has shown enough skills that even if he is older than Wang Ce, he will unconsciously be polite at this time.
Zhou Banshan looked at Wang Ce with a bit of surprise, and he was sure in his heart that Wang Ce must have had some adventure. Otherwise, how could a physical evolver master such a great skill?
You know, even a bronze-level waiting person cannot break through the wall of the passage, not even a small piece of it can be broken.
But Wang Ce was able to shuttle through it, which was enough to prove his excellence.
"As I speculated, this is indeed a ship to protect us, and its operation method is actually right above our heads!"
As he spoke, Wang Ce mobilized the spiritual power in his body and blasted upward.
Everyone’s expressions changed drastically!
"No! This will rebound the attack and everyone will be hurt!"
Zhou Banshan shouted to stop him, but he saw with his own eyes that after waiting for the opportunity to display a powerful superpower, it affected many people.
Several of the late-stage Black Iron warriors under him were seriously injured!
So when he saw that Wang Ce dared to mobilize his spiritual power to bombard the passage wall, his expression immediately changed.
The expressions of other survivors also changed drastically. They all heard what Zhou Banshan said just now and knew that they could not attack the passage, otherwise there would be a terrible backlash!
Many survivors blurted out the two-character national curse when they were in a hurry.
Some timid ones were already lying on the ground, trying to reduce the injured area as much as possible.
They didn't dare to run around and could only pray in their hearts that it would not affect themselves.
"boom!"
Accompanied by a real buzzing sound, a horrifying scene appeared. Just above the crowd, a round hole with a diameter of two meters appeared on the wall of the passage.
But above this round hole, there is actually a cave.
Wang Ce and Youyou climbed up first, followed closely by Zhou Banshan, and others helped each other climb up.
After coming up, everyone couldn't hide their shock when they saw the scene in front of them.
Zhou Banshan, who was born in the army, even expressed his unabashed emotion.
"It turns out that this is really a ship. The channel we have been running through is really like the tracks of a tank, providing forward momentum!"
"Where is this place? Why is it so dark around here?"
"Yes, the surroundings are like a galaxy, with many stars twinkling."
Everyone saw the scene around the "ship" and felt very shocked.
However, Youyou grabbed Wang Ce's clothes and said weakly.
"Brother Wang Ce, Uncle Fatty and Sister Zhou Zhou are in here!"
Youyou pointed at a very close star and murmured softly, but everyone's pupils gradually dilated.
"Could it be that these stars are all ships?"
