Chapter 123 - Brothers in Arms! Break the Stone Puppet!
Chapter 123 Brothers in Arms! Break the Stone Puppet!
The moment they made contact with the stone puppet, they could already tell that something was wrong After the two of them had attacked at the same time with their full strength and cut off the statue’s legs, the energy that was being emanated from this monster seemed to have gotten stronger.
“Don’t worry about it, senior brother! Let’s strike first!” Ye Yunfan said as the sharp blade in his hand stabbed directly into the opponent’s stone throat!
“Clang!”
The sharp blade in his hand was directly repelled.
Seeing the sword in his hand being repelled, Ye Yunfan had an incredulous expression.
The stone puppet was no longer of the same hardness as before!
The stone puppet that had lost its legs and was currently collapsed on the ground had truly become an impenetrable fortress!
“Senior brother! This can’t do!”
Gu Lingfei’s eyes turned cold.
He didn’t expect the opponent before him to be so difficult to deal with!
The two of them had already used almost all of their skills and were on the verge of shattering the other party, yet at this moment, they were unable to damage it even the slightest bit!
“Junior brother, we should only be able to shatter this monster after reaching a certain balance!”
Jiang Yiming nodded.
He didn’t expect his eldest disciple to be able to comprehend the most important point so quickly!
Amazing!
To be honest, the stone puppet’s strength was only average. As long as one could find a way to break its balance, one would be able to easily defeat it.
Jiang Yiming didn’t expect that Gu Lingfei, who usually seemed a little reckless, would be able to guess the mysteries of it first!
Thinking about this, Jiang Yiming nodded with satisfaction.
It wasn’t hard to break the stone puppet at all, it was just a matter of finding the balance in its body.
“Junior brother! Wait until it grows a little bigger! Then we’ll strike together and crush it!” Gu Lingfei shouted.
Ye Yunfan nodded and used his spiritual energy to retrieve the sword that had just been thrown out.
The sword was nothing valuable, but it could be considered something that he had obtained by chance.
As such, his feelings for the sword were naturally not shallow.
“Come! Let’s attack together!” By now, the two of them had completely understood the rules of how the statue worked.
Their next mission was to find the most delicate balance point on its body!
Then destroy it in one go!
The two of them kept trying. Even though they still couldn’t destroy the stone puppet before them directly, they had firmly controlled it on the ground, making it so that the puppet was unable to move.
The Lingyun Sect’s members below the arena had also seen through its mysteries at this point.
“This secret realm was really a good thing,” Jiang Yiming thought to himself.
He continued to watch the performance of his two disciples.
After several attempts, they finally found a vague balance.
With a final concerted attack, they finally shattered the statue!
Seeing the somewhat terrifying stone statue turn into a pile of powder, Gu Lingfei and Ye Yunfan finally felt at ease.
They panted heavily as they recovered their breath.
“Phew, you’re good, senior brother! I didn’t expect that at such a critical moment, you’re the one who discovered the solution first!”
“Hmph, of course! Otherwise, how can I be your senior brother?”
Just as the two of them were still teasing each other, the stone pillar in the ring had risen up once again.
They were already used to facing the stone pillar by now.
After the battle of each level ended, the stone pillar would rise, and above it would be their handprints as if the pillar was confirming the identity of the challengers completely.
But this time, the situation was a bit different from before.
A handful of sand had mysteriously appeared on the stone pillar.
Just as the two were still curious, the sand began to inexplicably float in this place where there was no wind at all and melted into the air.
What was this?
Even Jiang Yiming was a little puzzled.
After a moment of pondering, Ye Yunfan had already figured it out!
“Senior brother! This, this should be…”
“What is it?!” Hearing his junior brother say such words, Gu Lingfei had also guessed was it
was.
The pile of quicksand was quickly disappearing in the midst of their conversation.
“Senior brother, you should still remember, right?” Ye Yunfan’s expression was somewhat fearful.
“When we entered this array just now, Master had already told us that as long as we step into this secret realm, we would only have two choices left. Either we fight to the end, or, just like that pile of stones just now,” He swallowed a mouthful of saliva with some difficulty before continuing, “Turn into dust.”
The two of them looked at each other.
If they continued to just wait here, they would face only one thing, and that was death.
As they watched the pile of sand slowly drain away, the two of them stood in front of the stone pillar.
With that, a ray of light burst out from within the stone pillar, and two pills appeared before them.
A fragrance filled the air between the two.
“This is?”
“This should be a pill used to recover one’s spiritual energy. That’s right, the pill that Master had given me to eat smelled like this,” Ye Yunfan sniffed and said. Seeing the pills in the array, Jiang Yiming’s heart was filled with joy.
The pills were something quite good.
It seemed that the secret realm was not just a simple training ground or secret realm.
He wondered, though, if he could take the things in there with him to the outside world.
If it was possible, the secret realm would then become a place that could provide pills and treasures!
After his two disciples came out of the secret realm, he would have to go in for a trial too!
He wanted to see just how many treasures were hidden in this secret realm!
The two people in the ring took the pills together after they looked at each other.
An unprecedented sense of comfort filled their bodies.
“Whoa, I really didn’t expect the effects of this pill to be as such!”
The two of them were a little surprised.
After all, they had thought that these were just some random pills.
As for the effects of the pills, the two of them didn’t even dare to think about it.
Seeing the sand on the stone pillar slowly disappear, the two of them nodded to each other and put their hands on the handprint once more.
Then, the stone pillar slowly sank, and a black fog gradually took shape in the array.
It seemed to be in the shape of a person, but it also seemed to be some kind of fierce beast.
Jiang Yiming was also quite surprised.
What was this thing?
He seemed to remember that something like this was recorded in the ancient books that he had read before.
Speaking of which, the things that had been sent by the DongFamily behind Dong Misent were all good stuff.
Not only were there books that recorded all kinds of medical techniques, but there were also ancient books that recorded all kinds of strange anecdotes.
The black mist before them, if he remembered correctly, was called the “black abyss”.
It didn’t have a body and was something like a spirit left behind by an expert.
The difference was that although it appeared in the form of a spirit, it didn’t have a mind of its own.
