Ye Zhining was overjoyed and hurriedly walked to the entrance and shouted: "Junior Brother Cheng, I didn't expect you to find it."
Cheng Ling slid down from the screen wall and exhaled: "It's just a coincidence. This hall will definitely not have only one entrance from the front, otherwise no one from the Thousand Machine Sect will be able to leave."
Ye Zhining was silent. This is easy to say. It is not easy to find the clues in the engravings. Cheng Ling is as meticulous as dust and can catch such small details. He is much better than himself.
Cheng Ling continued: "Okay, the passage has been opened, let's see what mysteries the Thousand Machines Sect has!"
Ye Zhining said: "I'll bother my junior brother from now on. It's better for me to open the way in front, and you should follow me!"
Cheng Ling had no intention of eating soft food and readily agreed.
Turning around the screen wall, there was a spacious passage ahead. Under the dim light, I could only see a long object hanging on the stone walls on both sides.
Cheng Ling walked over and touched it gently. He felt a metallic texture, and then touched a layer of soft gel-like stuff. After stopping for a moment, he called Ye Zhining.
The latter asked in confusion: "Junior Brother Cheng, did you find anything?"
"Wait a minute. Walk a little further along the wall and see if you can find the same long object."
Ye Zhining nodded immediately and slowly walked forward while touching the edge of the stone wall. After a certain distance, she said: "Yes, there is indeed a long object here with a soft top. I don't know what it is."
Cheng Ling's mind flashed, and he suddenly remembered the passage he walked through in the lair of the Agni Fire Cult. Could it be that these gelatinous objects were lamp oil? With a thought in his heart, the glazed fire came to the palm of his hand and he patted it.
Dots of flames burst out and splashed on the stone wall.
"Crack!"
There was a sound of burning flames, and the gelatinous objects above the head gradually softened, and finally they all ignited. In an instant, the flames on the right screen wall were like a thread, gradually spreading forward.
Cheng Ling didn't stop. The right side could ignite fire. Correspondingly, the left side must also have such a setting. He hit the flame on the left wall again.
Sure enough, in less than a moment, the wall on the left also began to burn. In an instant, the light in the passage brightened, and the darkness was completely driven away.
Ye Zhining watched the flames continue to spread deeper, sparks flying, like a rain of fire, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "What a beautiful flame, how did you discover it?"
"The passage is entered from the hall, and the sunlight cannot shine in. It is impossible to keep it dark, and there is no lighting treasure at the top of the passage. In this way, there is only one possibility. There must be a mystery in the stone walls on both sides!"
Ye Zhining sighed inwardly, how did Cheng Ling's brain grow? How come you can deduce everything! Thinking back carefully, it is indeed impossible for the Qianji Sect to leave such a dark passage behind Zhaobi.
But hindsight is nothing, people can think of this with just a little thought. For a moment, a thought flashed through my mind: If Zhang Ruixin was traveling with him, he would not be able to reach this point and would not be able to find the clues on the screen wall.
However, Cheng Ling did not relax at all. Under the flame illumination, the passage ahead was clearly visible. The straight line of flames has reached the end, but it begins to turn. How long is this passage?
At that moment, he said: "Senior Sister Ye, let's move forward in the direction of the flames first!"
Ye Zhining readily agreed and used her body skills to rush away quickly. Cheng Ling followed closely behind her, his consciousness always paying attention to the changes in the passage.
After galloping forward for a quarter of an hour, we reached the end of the passage, and there was a fork in the road on both sides.
Ye Zhining stopped and asked, "Junior Brother Cheng, which direction should we go now."
Cheng Ling took a step forward and carefully observed the passage and the ground. However, due to his age, he could not find any traces. He said helplessly: "I don't know. Now it's time to do the multiple-choice question."
"How about this, each of us chooses a passage and walks a certain distance forward to take a look?"
"No, I don't know what will be in the passage. If I get caught in a maze or in any danger, can I turn around in time?"
Ye Zhining paused, she was not afraid of danger, but if it was a formation, there would be nothing she could do. It's better to shut up and wait for Cheng Ling to show the direction.
After waiting for a long time, he looked at both sides for a while, and then said: "Senior Sister Ye, let's choose the right direction first."
Ye Zhining nodded and walked to the right. The road was smooth. After walking for half an hour, he found a wall directly in front of the passage. She was stunned and asked: "Junior Brother Cheng, the right direction seems to be a dead end!"
Cheng Ling couldn't figure it out for a while and said, "Let's go back the way we came and look to the left!"
Ye Zhining responded and turned back towards the way she came. This time, after walking for an hour, a wall still appeared in front of me. Except for the passage that entered, there was no exit at all.
Cheng Ling frowned, took two steps forward, and looked at the wall carefully. After looking for a long time, I found nothing. He returned to the previous fork and started searching seriously again.
Ye Zhining followed closely, not daring to say a word for fear of disturbing his train of thought.
Cheng Ling checked for a long time and finally found a clue. On the stone wall in front of the fork in the road, the color of the stone wall in the middle seemed to be slightly lighter than that of the two sides. His eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand to gently touch the wall in front of him, as if there was a vague connection point.
He immediately took a few steps back, pumped his right arm with strength, and slapped the stone wall in the center with his palm.
"Boom~!"
There was a muffled sound from the stone wall, dust fell, and the difference between the two stone walls became more obvious. After pondering for a moment, he took a big step to the right and continued to slap it with his palm.
"Kaka!"
A burst of mechanical sound came out, and the stone wall directly in front was the same as the screen wall in the hall. The entire wall rotated ninety degrees, revealing another passage.
Cheng Ling glanced at Ye Zhining and said, "Senior Sister Ye, you stand behind me this time."
Ye Zhining nodded helplessly. Her performance was indeed not as good as his. She couldn't find any clues at all and could only rely on Ji Wei.
Cheng Ling was the first to enter the passage, but when he stepped on it, it felt like he was stepping on the void without any focus. The entire space was dark, and even his consciousness could not leave his body. He hurriedly said: "Senior Sister Ye, be careful, hold my hand and don't move it."
Ye Zhining followed behind and felt something was wrong. She couldn't find anything and only heard Cheng Ling's voice. He actually felt a trace of fear in his heart and asked, "Junior Brother Cheng, where exactly is this place? Why can't even the consciousness spread out?"
"I don't know either
, this place is very weird, like stepping on the void, you should be able to touch my body if you stretch your hand forward. "
Ye Zhining pondered for a moment, and finally stretched out her right hand and touched forward. After a moment, he felt Cheng Ling's palm touching.
Cheng Ling also felt it and held her little hand firmly.
Ye Zhining's heart trembled slightly. As a saint of the Yunlan Sect, she rarely saw men when she was growing up in her daughter's country. Although they later went out for training and experienced life and death with Zhang Ruixin, the two of them developed feelings for each other, but it was always based on emotion rather than courtesy. There was very little physical contact, not to mention that they didn't know much about Cheng Lingcai. It's time.
Cheng Ling had no intention of caring about this and told her, "Close your eyes and don't worry about anything else. Just follow my footsteps."
After saying that, he raised his legs and continued walking forward.
Ye Zhining closed her eyes as she was told, and the warmth of Cheng Ling's palm came from her palm. She felt inexplicably safe, her body slowly relaxed, and she followed him forward.
She didn't know that Cheng Ling worked very hard. In order to appease her emotions, he exerted his mental power to the maximum extent. The third level of Divine Soul Nine Transformations was deployed, gradually affecting Ye Zhining's mentality, like a hypnosis, creating a safe atmosphere.
This was also a helpless move. With her strong mental power and keen intuition, she felt that the front was like an illusory space. She could only overcome the difficulty by rushing out of the darkness in front of her without hesitation.
After walking a few steps, all kinds of fantasies came to mind, including wine pools and meat forests, Shura hell, and fairyland on earth. He stayed true to his true feelings and completely ignored these things, only paying attention to Ye Zhining at his feet and behind him.
Time passed slowly, as if a long time had passed, and yet it seemed like an instant. Cheng Ling took a step forward and finally set foot on level ground. He opened his eyes and saw that the two of them were in a passage again. The scene in front of them had not changed at all. It was still a bare stone wall and a long passage.
He grabbed Ye Zhining's hand, turned his head and said to her: "Senior Sister Ye, you can open your eyes now."
Ye Zhining suddenly woke up. Without the warmth of Cheng Ling's palm, she felt a sense of loss in her heart. She hurriedly covered it up and said: "Oh, you're here so soon?"
Cheng Ling was speechless. Miss, do you still think it's too slow? I don’t even know how dangerous it was just now, and those who have weaker fantasy mental strength can’t support it. If I hadn’t practiced the divine consciousness technique, even if I was in the nine-star virtual fairyland, would I have been lost in the illusion, or two explain.
But after Ye Zhining opened her eyes, she asked in surprise: "Junior Brother Cheng, have we really passed through that wall? Why is the passage in front of us exactly the same as before?"
Cheng Ling was silent for a while and said, "It's too early to draw a conclusion now. I'll take a look at the situation on the stone wall first."
After saying that, he took out the glazed fire sacrifice again, looked carefully, and saw that there were still long objects on both sides of the passage. Without hesitation, the Meteor Fire burst out sparks again and splashed onto the wall. Not long after, the flames on the wall ignited and stretched forward in a straight line again.
Ye Zhining smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't this the same?"
Cheng Ling's eyes narrowed and he observed for a moment before saying: "It's different. At least there is no side road yet. Don't worry, let's follow the direction of the flames and look deeper!"
Ye Zhining had no choice but to follow him along the flames on both sides to the end of the passage!
