Chapter 433 The Sudden Final Step
Xu Ning looked at the narrow doorway in front of him, barely wide enough for one person to pass through, and couldn't help but smile wryly, "Startled? I was definitely startled."
It was through entering this portal that I arrived at this point and met all of you!
And what kind of twisted sense of humor do you have to create that kind of magical illusion array that's like opening a disaster blind box?
However, seeing Bo Yang's smug expression, Xu Ning didn't want to go against his good intentions and casually turned on the switch of the door.
Unlike the pitch-black darkness that appeared when I opened the door myself in later generations, behind the door was just an ordinary stone cave, nothing special.
"Brother Boyang, did you forget to activate this illusion array? There's no change inside or outside."
Xu Ning casually joked with Bo Yang and stepped across the door.
Then he saw the astonished faces of Yelan, Kong, and Paimon.
Xu Ning suddenly turned around, and the portal behind him was rapidly rising and closing.
"Don't let it shut off!"
Although Xu Ning couldn't tell whether the people in front of him were illusions in his mind or whether he had really returned to the grotto he had entered in the future.
However, Xu Ning knew that he absolutely could not let the stone door behind him close, otherwise he might never be able to go back.
Xu Ning touched his brow with his finger, quickly recalling his elemental body and then releasing it.
The wind elemental, wielding two Thousand Rock Spears, flew up and planted them directly into the upper edge of the stone gate, then braced the spears between the gate and the wall.
However, such measures could not slow down the speed at which the stone gate rose, and the two spears were directly pierced into the upper stone wall by the sturdy stone gate.
Meanwhile, the rock elemental threw the Thousand Rock Greatsword in his hand at Xu Ning, and grabbed the upper edge of the stone door with both hands, forcefully suppressing the rising stone door.
"Brother Boyang, Brother Yaksha, come over here quickly!"
Bo Yang and the burly man inside the gate clearly did not hear Xu Ning's shout. Bo Yang even curiously called out in their direction, and judging from his lip movements, he should have been calling out "Brother Xu Ning".
Before Xu Ning could shout again, he clearly saw a huge mechanical drill bit suddenly emerge from the cliff behind Bo Yang and the others.
The moment this enormous mechanical serpent appeared, it caused immense damage to the group. Several people were immediately pinned down by it, and the array that had just been set up to isolate the monsters was broken, allowing the monsters to reappear.
Before the yaksha giant's spear could leave a deep mark on its body, the giant snake had already disappeared into the other side of the stone wall, and from the hole it had crawled out behind it, a group of demons swarmed out.
Xu Ning was filled with hatred and anger. He should have realized that those demons wouldn't appear in the depths of the Abyss for no reason. During his exploration, he had seen those round holes of similar size, but he never thought that they were actually created by this mechanical giant snake.
Now that it has appeared, it has already killed several people, but I just can't go back at this critical moment!
Xu Ning swung the Thousand Rocks Greatsword in his hand and slashed fiercely at the stone gate in front of him with all his might.
"Break it for me!"
No stone gate could withstand the strikes of the Thousand Rock Giant Sword.
The stone gate shattered upon contact with the sword, but the scene behind it also vanished with the sword, as if everything Xu Ning had just experienced was nothing more than an illusion.
A new space appeared behind the stone gate, but Xu Ning had no interest in looking at it.
He wearily slammed his greatsword on the ground, turned around to look at the crowd behind him who were still in shock, and asked, "You're not an illusion created by this space, are you?"
Ye Lan and Kong walked over and helped Xu Ning toward a large rock. There was a meadow with wildflowers, and someone was already resting there.
It's Mandrill.
"You can rest here for a while. Let's explore the space below first."
Ye Lan helped Xu Ning sit back on the grass and began to speak.
"How long have I been inside?" Xu Ning raised his hand and took a sip of Qianyan wine. As the familiar yet unfamiliar taste of the wine melted in his mouth, Xu Ning truly felt that he had returned to the real world.
Ye Lan shook her head, seemingly unable to answer Xu Ning's question, "Time is becoming increasingly difficult to perceive. Our sense of time has been completely disrupted, and I'm afraid no one can give you an accurate time."
Xu Ning nodded. "It doesn't matter, but how did you find Xiao? Or did he find you?"
Ye Lan smiled and said, "Both! In any case, we found Master Xiao, and you're back. I have a feeling we'll be able to get out of here soon."
After Ye Lan got up and met up with Yan Fei, they went to the new room together.
Xu Ning, on the other hand, was quietly lost in thought.
"I just heard you call out 'Brother Yaksha,' who did you see in the illusion?"
A voice came from beside him; it was Xiao, who had been resting with his eyes closed, speaking.
Xu Ning paused for a moment, but still honestly said, "A four-armed yaksha is skilled in using lightning elements. I think it is very likely that it is Marshal Tengshe Tai – Lord Fushe."
Xiao opened his eyes and looked at Xu Ning. "Where did you see him?"
Xu Ning pointed to his lower body, "Right here!"
Xiao nodded. "Then what I saw there was definitely Fushe."
Xu Ning was not surprised to receive such an answer from Xiao, after all, when he first heard Xiao's voice transmission on the previous platform, he heard the name "Fushe" in it.
However, when Xu Ning wanted to talk to Xiao about the floating house, he found that Xiao, who was sitting next to him, was covered in wounds.
The wounds in many places were so deep that the bone was visible, a truly shocking sight.
"How did you get into this state? He's the one who hurt you!"
Xiao nodded. "I saw him in a certain space. He seems to have completely lost his memories, leaving only the instinct to kill. Although he is still very powerful, his strength is much weaker than before. However, I don't want to attack him..."
Xu Ning took out a ceramic bowl from the gourd, poured a bowl of water for Xiao, and handed it to him.
"You drink first and heal your injuries. I can tell you everything I learned in the illusion."
While Xiao was drinking, Xu Ning recounted how he encountered Fushe, how he entered the Layered Rock Abyss, how he went deep underground, and how he arrived here.
"Based on your description, it is undoubtedly Brother Fushe. However, according to you, Brother Fushe has only lost his memory and has not forgotten Liyue or his duties."
Xu Ning nodded and said, "I only regret that I didn't pay attention to the last step, otherwise I would not have let them encounter such danger, and I would have brought them back to Liyue safely."
