Chapter 623 Dark Living Being!
Fang Yu came to the rock wall beside the entrance, and facing the wall, he threw a punch!
“Boom!”
With a loud explosion, the entire rock wall was forcibly blasted through by Fang Yu.
And the well behind the rock wall appeared before Fang Yu’s eyes.
Fang Yu stepped through the penetrated opening, walked to the well, and looked down.
The water level in this well was very high, and the water had a light blue color.
Fang Yu scooped up a bit of water from the well with his palm, observed it for a moment, then poured it into his mouth.
It had no taste.
But after the water entered his stomach, there was a cooling sensation.
“This is liquid formed from spiritual energy.”
Fang Yu was already a bit thirsty, so he scooped up water several more times.
But drinking this way wasn’t satisfying enough, so Fang Yu simply submerged his entire face into the well to drink his fill.
However, as soon as his face entered the well, he immediately felt dizzy.
“Rumble…”
The ground shook, emitting a series of thunderous sounds.
At the same time, a powerful suction force appeared at the bottom of the well, seemingly trying to drag Fang Yu’s entire body downward.
Fang Yu grabbed the sides of the well with his hands, easily resisting the suction force.
But after thinking for a moment, he let go.
“Splash!”
Thus, Fang Yu’s entire body was sucked to the bottom of the well.
…
Han Meiren and Ming He were striving to push forward when they suddenly felt the ground shake.
The surrounding space distorted again.
Soon, the scene before their eyes underwent a complete transformation.
Now they were standing at the entrance of a huge cave!
The color of the scene before them was no longer gray-white, but the normal bronze color of ancient rock walls.
What was going on?
Han Meiren and Ming He were both confused.
They had visited spirit ruins before, but had never encountered a situation like today.
This spirit ruin in Jiangnan seemed very different from those they had entered previously!
“We were probably inside some kind of formation just now. This is the real entrance,” Ming He said after thinking for a while.
“But we didn’t do anything… why did we suddenly arrive here?” Han Meiren asked with furrowed brows.
“It is indeed strange…” Ming He stroked his chin, his brows also tightly knit.
But after pondering for just a few seconds, Ming He’s brows relaxed.
“Let’s not waste time thinking about it. We came here for only one purpose: to capture spirit beasts,” Ming He said.
“Hmm… I was just a bit curious,” Han Meiren said with an alluring smile.
“Whoosh…”
Just as the two were about to enter the cave, a whistling sound came from the sky behind them, accompanied by a long, piercing cry.
A vast surge of spiritual energy appeared in the sky.
A spirit beast had appeared!
Han Meiren and Ming He’s expressions changed, their eyes lighting up with excitement.
They had just arrived here and already encountered a spirit beast. Their luck was incredibly good!
They both turned around and saw a bird-like creature engulfed in flames flying in the air.
This creature was quite massive. Flying in midair, it was like a small sun, dazzlingly bright and radiating scorching heat.
“It’s a phoenix! A phoenix tribe creature!” Ming He shouted excitedly.
Among spirit beasts, the phoenix tribe was one of the most elite groups.
Capturing such a high-level spirit beast and refining its essence would not only greatly increase one’s lifespan but also significantly boost one’s cultivation!
For half-spirit beings like them, such spirit beasts were the best cultivation resources!
“Let’s go!” Ming He glanced at Han Meiren beside him and said.
“Mm.” Han Meiren didn’t hesitate, patting the storage pouch at her waist and taking out a red ribbon.
This was her exclusive magical weapon, named Enchantress.
Ming He extended his right hand, materializing a huge curved blade.
Looking at the phoenix tribe creature in the sky, he grinned widely, gripped the blade tightly, and charged forward.
In an instant, Ming He appeared before the phoenix tribe creature, swinging his blade toward its neck.
The phoenix creature violently flapped its wings.
“Whoosh!”
A powerful gust of wind swept toward Ming He!
Ming He’s expression changed slightly. His blade, originally moving forward, was blown backward by the gust!
At the same time, his body was uncontrollably blown backward!
On the ground, Han Meiren threw out her Enchantress.
The red ribbon continuously extended in the air, flying toward the flame-covered phoenix creature in the sky.
The ribbon kept lengthening in the air, forming a circle around the phoenix creature and rapidly contracting, seemingly trying to bind the phoenix creature.
“Boom!”
The phoenix creature violently flapped its wings again.
Another extremely violent gale spread outward in all directions.
The red ribbon that was contracting in the air instantly dispersed under the wind.
Even Han Meiren on the ground and Ming He in midair were blown backward by the blast.
“Screech…”
The phoenix creature opened its mouth and emitted a soul-shaking cry.
This sound had extreme penetrating power.
“Puff!”
Ming He in the air and Han Meiren on the ground both spat out a mouthful of blood.
The phoenix creature flapped its wings, flying high in the air. Its eyes, like fireballs, swept over the two of them, as if warning them.
“Whoosh…”
Then, with a whistling sound, the phoenix creature flew directly into the cave.
Ming He and Han Meiren looked toward the cave with shocked expressions.
This was the first time they had encountered such a powerful spirit beast!
Although they had only briefly engaged in two rounds of combat, neither side had used their full strength.
But just those two wing flaps and that soul-striking cry… were quite shocking.
“This phoenix tribe creature is definitely not an ordinary being… it’s at least a sacred beast level existence!” Ming He’s eyes showed shock, but even more excitement.
If they could absorb the essence of such a high-level spirit beast… the benefits would be unimaginable.
“Let’s go in too!” Ming He said, coming back to his senses.
At this moment, Han Meiren hesitated and asked, “Are you sure we should go in? We might not be able to match the abilities of the spirit beast we just saw. Perhaps we should notify our master first…”
“Don’t forget, I still have the magical tool bestowed by the Immortal!” Ming He looked at Han Meiren and grinned.
Han Meiren was stunned, then also smiled, saying alluringly, “Well then, Brother Ming, once we’re inside, you must protect your little sister. You know my combat abilities are far less formidable than yours.”
“Don’t worry, with me here, you won’t need to lift a finger,” Ming He laughed.
Afterward, the two entered the cave together.
…
On the ground above.
The incident at the Baotian Museum quickly attracted attention from all directions.
The Baotian Martial Arts Association promptly sent people to investigate, discovering the black hole in the ruins.
The vast spiritual energy emanating from underground left these martial artists stunned.
Thus, information about the black hole and spiritual energy began to spread from the mouths of several martial artists in the association, quickly spreading throughout the Jiangnan martial arts world, and even to other regions!
A group of martial artists who heard the news flocked toward the Baotian Museum!
…
Beneath the well.
Fang Yu continued to sink, reaching the depths of the well.
Strangely, the deeper he sank, the brighter it became around him.
Fang Yu could clearly see the light blue spiritual water before him, as well as everything around.
But in fact, there was nothing around, just vast, boundless spiritual water like an ocean.
However, that suction force still existed, continuously pulling Fang Yu downward.
Fang Yu looked down but couldn’t discern anything yet.
After sinking for about ten minutes, a black dot suddenly appeared in Fang Yu’s field of vision.
As he continued to sink, this black dot grew larger.
Soon, Fang Yu discovered that it was a completely black humanoid creature.
This humanoid creature’s limbs were all bound by silver-glowing chains, layer upon layer.
The powerful suction force was emanating from this humanoid creature.
Soon, Fang Yu arrived before the humanoid creature.
This was the deepest part of the well. Below was the ground, with no more space to sink.
Fang Yu looked at the black humanoid creature before him, slightly furrowing his brows.
The humanoid creature remained motionless.
Its body was made of a material Fang Yu couldn’t identify with his naked eye, but it was definitely not flesh and blood.
In the phoenix tribe’s spirit ruin, at the bottom of a well used to trigger a restriction, there existed such a humanoid creature?
What exactly was this thing? And who had chained it here?
“Hey, you pulled me down here, you should at least say something, otherwise I’ve come down for nothing,” Fang Yu said to the humanoid creature before him, transmitting his voice with true energy.
The humanoid creature did not respond.
Although it was completely black, it was clear that its head was lowered.
Fang Yu thought for a moment, stepped forward, and moved closer to the humanoid creature.
“Why don’t you…” Fang Yu was about to continue questioning.
“Ha…”
At this moment, the humanoid creature, which had been keeping its head down, suddenly raised it.
It opened its pitch-black mouth, emitting a piercing sound, seemingly wanting to swallow Fang Yu whole!
