Chapter 1008: Barrier of the Illusion Array Space
Seeing this passageway, most of the people present couldn't help but show a hint of surprise on their faces.
Hua Rou looked at Zhang Yuanfeng with even more astonishment, and said, "Captain Zhang, could this be...?"
Zhang Yuanfeng's expression was somewhat solemn as he nodded and said, "That's right, this is the place I mentioned to you all at the beginning. If I remember correctly, there should be many things inside that we can use.
Of course, there should also be many dangers inside, so everyone must be careful and don't act on your own."
Saying this, Zhang Yuanfeng suddenly looked at Zhu Fei with a sincere expression:
"Brother Zhu Fei, if there are any sorts of formations inside, I'll leave them to you."
Zhu Fei smiled faintly and nodded, saying, "No problem, Captain Zhang. If there are no further questions, why don't we go in now?"
To be honest, now that things have reached this point, he's somewhat interested in the treasure vault that Zhang Yuanfeng mentioned earlier.
Of course, he's not holding out too much hope for everything inside. It's best if there is something; if not, he won't be too disappointed.
"Alright, let's go in now."
Zhang Yuanfeng nodded, then led the way towards the deep cave entrance.
Seeing this, the others didn't hesitate and followed Zhang Yuanfeng.
As they walked into the dark entrance, Zhu Fei felt a sudden cold wind blowing around them.
Initially, everyone, including Zhu Fei, didn't pay much attention to these cold winds.
But as time went on, they suddenly discovered a faint undead presence mixed within these cold winds!
This sudden discovery startled most of those present.
Almost without hesitation, a series of spirit lights appeared around them.
"Hiss! Wail!"
As spirit lights emerged around them, a series of painful and eerie wails suddenly echoed from all directions.
Pale, twisted faces suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
That chilling aura, sinister shadows, and tortured cries—even though they were immortals—unavoidably made them shiver in this environment.
Fortunately, throughout the journey, these undead did not display any overly aggressive behavior.
Otherwise, even if they didn't lose their minds, they would suffer from unforeseen horrible curses.
"Wait! Something seems off!"
After walking forward for more than one period, Zhu Fei suddenly shouted to stop everyone.
Upon hearing Zhu Fei's voice, Zhang Yuanfeng and the others couldn't help but turn their heads in confusion.
Hua Rou asked strangely, "Fellow Zhu Fei, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Zhu Fei's face was slightly stern, looking at them, asking word by word, "After walking so long, haven't you felt anything?"
"Felt? What feeling?"
Hearing Zhu Fei's question, Zhang Yuanfeng and the others exchanged bewildered glances, unsure what Zhu Fei meant.
Zhu Fei took a deep breath and continued, "Haven't you felt that the path we're walking is just circling in place?"
"Circling in place?"
This time, everyone was shocked and looked around incredulously.
"Zhu Fei, how could we be just circling in place? Haven't you noticed that the scenery here is completely different from when we first entered…"
Liang Qiu glanced at the surrounding scenery and was about to mock Zhu Fei, but before he could finish, his words stopped abruptly.
Because he suddenly noticed that as they paused, the seemingly different scenery around them began to ripple and distort!
In just a moment, everyone was astonished to discover they were still at the entrance!
"How is this possible?" Hua Rou said, incredulous.
Zhang Yuanfeng's face was also solemn. He carefully observed the surroundings before looking at Zhu Fei again and asking:
"Brother Zhu Fei, what's going on? Did you notice something?"
Gently nodding, Zhu Fei replied, "If my guess is correct, there's a space barrier mixed with an illusion array here."
"Space barrier mixed with an illusion array?"
Zhu Fei's explanation left everyone present a bit bewildered, unclear about the principle of this so-called space barrier.
Zhu Fei said nothing more and directly took several array flags from himself.
Then, following a certain direction, he tossed the array flags into the void.
"Buzz—"
With a peculiar wave flashing past, everyone suddenly felt their surroundings beginning to spin.
The light and shadows began to shift constantly, as if some mysterious power had descended, causing a strange illusion in their consciousness.
Until that strange illusion dissipated, everyone was surprised to discover a staircase leading down had appeared before them!
"This...?"
Liang Qiu's gaze was suspicious, his eyes shifting as if in deep thought.
Zhang Yuanfeng, Hua Rou, and the others let out a long sigh.
They looked at Zhu Fei, and besides deep astonishment in their eyes, there was also admiration.
Previously, they never would have expected that Zhu Fei, seemingly ordinary, would have such profound skills in formations.
Fortunately to Zhu Fei's reminder and his current solution, otherwise, with their previous approach, who knows what might have happened.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuanfeng, Hua Rou, and the others stepped forward to thank Zhu Fei.
Zhu Fei merely smiled gently and shook his head, "No problem; since we're companions, doing this is only right."
Pausing, Zhu Fei looked at Zhang Yuanfeng and said, "Captain Zhang, if there are no more questions, can we move now?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanfeng immediately nodded, "Alright, let's proceed cautiously."
After speaking, Zhang Yuanfeng intended to lead the way down the stairs.
Yet at this moment, from the sky behind them, they suddenly heard carefree laughter.
Turning in surprise, Zhang Yuanfeng and the others found three mysterious strangers had appeared behind them!
