Spirit Through the Heavens - C223 Go to end
“Lu Feng, which direction should we go next?” Huo Wu looked around and replied.
Since they had already gathered ten treasures, their speed was much faster than before.
In order to avoid encountering danger again, as long as Lu Feng sensed danger in front of him, they would avoid him.
Although they did not encounter any more attacks from Demonic Beast along the way, they had instead been knocked unconscious by them.
That’s right, Lu Feng and the rest had basically lost their sense of direction, because their surroundings were practically the same.
Other than the fact that they knew they were coming from that direction, they didn’t know which direction to go in.
“Let’s go and try choosing any one of them!”
Lu Feng looked at the other three directions, and then casually pointed at one.
“Alright!”
Regarding Lu Feng’s suggestion, the others naturally did not have any objections. Since they were already lost, walking around randomly might just be the opposite.
But after two hours passed, Lu Feng and the rest could not help but stop.
“Lu Feng, we seem to have been here before!”
Wang Kai looked around. Although there weren’t any vegetation in the area, there were still some dried up grass and the like. As a result, there were still some effects on this place.
“Wang Kai, try using your Heaven Transforming Axe to make a mark on the ground!” Actually, Lu Feng also felt that this place was a little familiar, so he suggested.
“Alright!”
Wang Kai replied, then carried his Heaven Transforming Axe and drew a few deep marks on the muddy ground in front of him.
“Let’s go!”
After marking them down, Lu Feng and the rest continued on their way.
Two hours later …
“Eh, we seem to have returned to the same place?” This time, it was Lin Xuan who spoke.
“No way. Look, there are no traces of me around here!” Wang Kai rebutted after looking around.
The tracks he left behind were very deep, so he definitely wouldn’t disappear for no reason after two hours.
Although the marks were gone, Lu Feng and the others still felt a sense of familiarity, as if they had returned to their original place.
“Like this, I will leave this Talisman Paper here. It has my mental power on it, so if it is to leave a mark, it might disappear. But if it is left here, it will definitely not disappear!” Just then, Ji Bing took out a piece of Talisman Paper s and said.
As he said that, he attached a strand of his own mental power onto the Talisman Paper. It was only a strand of mental power, but even if it disappeared, it would only cause minimal damage to Ji Bing.
Just like that, when Ji Bing left the Talisman Paper behind, everyone continued to move.
“Wait a moment?”
But after an hour had passed, Ji Bing suddenly called for everyone to stop.
“What’s wrong?”
With regards to Ji Bing’s reaction, everyone could not help but ask.
“Ji Bing, did something happen to the Talisman Paper?” Lu Feng asked.
“Lu Feng, we have been going straight ahead, but why are the Talisman Paper slowly coming to my left side?” Ji Bing felt the position of the Talisman Paper and asked.
“Ji Bing, where are the Talisman Paper now?” After hearing this, Lu Feng hurriedly asked.
“Over here!”
Ji Bing pointed to his left and replied.
“Alright, let’s continue!”
After knowing this, Lu Feng let everyone go, but after walking for five or six minutes, he asked for the location of the Talisman Paper.
Although they had walked for five or six minutes, the Talisman Paper’s position had changed. It was actually a little off from where it was before.
“I understand!”
Seeing that the position of the Talisman Paper from before and the changes now, Lu Feng finally understood one thing.
But if that was the case, then why did Wang Kai not see the marks he made previously?
“Everyone, we’ve already travelled quite a bit. Why don’t we take a break on the spot?” Lu Feng’s eyeballs moved slightly. He seemed to have thought of something, but because he wasn’t certain, he didn’t say it.
“Alright!”
Although everyone wasn’t very tired, since Lu Feng wanted to rest, the others would naturally have no objections.
“Hmm?”
But less than five minutes after he sat down and rested, Ji Bing, who was meditating, opened his eyes once again.
Because at this moment, he realized that the Talisman Paper’s position was off from his again, but he had clearly been sitting on the spot without moving.
“Ji Bing, did the Talisman Paper’s position change?!” Seeing Ji Bing like that, Lu Feng suddenly replied.
“Lu Feng, how did you know?” Hearing that Lu Feng had actually guessed right, Ji Bing was slightly shocked.
“It’s exactly as I expected!”
After hearing what Ji Bing said, Lu Feng finally understood one point. Combined with the various signs from before, as well as the movement of the Talisman Paper just now, a bold guess formed in his mind.
“What? The ground under our feet is moving?” After hearing Lu Feng’s guess, everyone revealed an expression of disbelief.
How is it possible that the earth can move beneath my feet?
Lu Feng did not believe his own conjecture, but if it was not for the fact that the ground was moving, then how could he explain the previous phenomenon?
Why did they always return to their original spots, and why did they not see Wang Kai’s mark when they had clearly returned to their original spots? Now that the Talisman Paper could actually move on its own, these signs showed that the ground under their feet was moving.
As no one believed in this, Lu Feng allowed everyone to stand at their original spot, and the distance between the two of them could be held by hand.
Just like that, seven to eight minutes had passed, and when Lu Feng and the others were preparing to hold hands again, they realised to their astonishment that the distance between some people had widened, and they could not even lift their hands anymore. However, some people were already very close, and holding hands was not a problem.
Although all of this was still a bit unbelievable, it proved that the ground under their feet was truly moving. However, it was not moving very frequently, so they did not feel anything when they were walking on it.
“Lu Feng, this mud doesn’t seem to be moving in the same direction, for example, the distance between you and I is getting closer, but the distance between Wang Kai and I is getting further, the movement is not the same!” Huo Wu analyzed.
Indeed, from the experiments just now, it was found that the movements of the ground under everyone’s feet were different.
“The land is moving, so why do we walk back to where we came from?” Someone asked in confusion.
“It looks like the frequency of our travel is very close to the frequency of the movement of the land. How about this, we’ll speed up a bit and see what happens?” Lu Feng suggested.
“No problem!”
Everyone agreed with this suggestion. They hadn’t been travelling with all their might before, so it wasn’t difficult for them to increase their speed.
Just like that, when Lu Feng led Ji Bing forward, everyone followed. This time, their speed was at least twice as fast as before.
One hour later …
“Looks like our guess is right!”
When Lu Feng and the rest stopped again, they were no longer in the same place as before. Even Ji Bing could not feel the location of the Talisman Paper.
There was a limit to the range of one’s spiritual energy, and one wouldn’t be able to sense it after a certain distance.
But now, Ji Bing couldn’t feel that Talisman Paper, which meant that the Talisman Paper was already very far away from them, and they had succeeded.
“Continue!”
Seeing that they had finally moved forward a bit more, Lu Feng and the others hurried to their destination again. They had already obtained their treasures so it would be good for them to rest early.
Just like this, with the passage of time, Lu Feng and the others discovered that the surrounding environment was constantly changing, which meant that they were constantly moving forward, and did not make a detour to their original path.
“Someone’s coming!”
When Lu Feng and the rest were moving forward quickly, a group of people was lying in ambush not far in front of them.
There were a total of twenty people in this group, and their cultivation bases were the worst, at Peak Spirit Movement Stage. As for Early Period of Spirit Gathering Stage Expert, there were eight of them.
Judging from their clothing, it was obvious that they came from the same dynasty.
“Finally someone’s coming. Brothers, no matter who the other party is, we must take them down!” A young man laughed complacently.
Since they came to this place so early, it was clear that the entire team had obtained a treasure. As long as they could take down this team, they would have quite a bit of treasure.
“He’s here!”
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, one figure after another appeared in their line of sight.
“Take care!”
Since he did not know who the group that came over was, the twenty people were naturally carefully waiting in ambush. That way, even if they met any powerful imperial power, they would have the confidence to take them down.
“Yi, that’s …”
However, when these ten people walked in, one of the twenty people couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
“So it’s this kid. It seems that enemies meet on narrow roads. I actually bumped into him so quickly!” The young man snickered.
If Lu Feng saw this face, he would definitely recognize it, because this person was Huang Gai, who had vented his anger on him because of Jin Sha.
Previously, Huang Gai had said he would ambush them on the way to the finishing point, so they had already been here for a long time.
Although waiting for a long time was a bit boring, compared to finding a treasure, waiting for someone else was undoubtedly the smartest method.
All he had to do was to get the treasure and bring him back to the end. As for the process, it didn’t matter.
“Brothers, there’s no need to hide anymore. It’s just a group of small fries, come out and greet them!” Because he recognized Lu Feng, Huang Gai naturally knew that these ten people came from the Dynasty Level.
It was not shameful to use an ambush against a powerhouse of the imperial rank. However, dealing with a powerhouse of the Dynasty Level was obviously a bit too much.
And after hearing Huang Gai’s words, the people who were originally hiding, one by one revealed themselves, and even their auras, were no longer hidden.
“Stop!”
When Huang Gai and the rest were exposed, Lu Feng, who was rushing towards them, immediately stopped them.
Then, he looked forward, and his eyes slightly narrowed. That was right, at this time, Lu Feng had already discovered the numerous figures that stood not far away.
