When my cultivation is recovering, the sect comes to persuade me to quit? I agree!

The arms were hairy, obviously the arms of the King Kong Monkey!

His arms swung left and right, grabbing at random during the analysis, accompanied by angry growls.

Before Lu Chen stood up from the ground, the spirit ape's arm arrived!

In desperation, Rong Xueer grabbed Lu Chen's clothes and pulled him forward desperately.

The spirit ape's arm touched the soles of Lu Chen's feet and passed through...

Lu Chen quickly moved his legs forward, and then stood up straight when he reached a spacious place.

Outside the gap.

Many King Kong Monkeys roared, and even a few of them stretched out their arms one after another!

Their purpose was very clear. Since they couldn't get in physically, they wanted to grab the two people out with their hands.

But because the gap was so long and their bodies were so large, they couldn't reach two people.

So, he could only vent at the entrance of the cave.

At the beginning, Rong Xueer's heart was in her throat, but after a while, when she saw that those huge monsters couldn't get in at all, Rong Xueer's heart relaxed a little.

After calming down, Rong Xueer could see clearly that the gap was connected to a cave.

However, the cave was pitch black and they couldn’t see their hand in front of them. They also didn’t know how deep the hole was.

A layer of sweat had already appeared on Lu Chen's forehead.

The all-out run just now made Lu Chen very tired, especially at the moment before giving up, Lu Chen almost used up all his strength.

Although he had some skills, he was facing a group of spiritual beasts. He had no way to exert the spiritual power in his body while running away, and could only rely on his physical strength.

Now that he had escaped from danger, Lu Chen sat down to rest.

Next to her, the look of astonishment on Rong Xueer's face had not completely disappeared.

From childhood to adulthood, Rong Xueer has never had such an experience.

Thinking about the scene just now, Rong Xueer's heart is still beating wildly.

The noise outside gradually died down, and Rong Xueer felt as if she had survived a disaster.

She wanted to sit down cross-legged like Lu Chen, but Rong Xueer found that she had scratched her clothes several times without knowing when.

Before coming to the forest, he was dressed neatly and elegantly.

Looking down at herself now, Rong Xueer was speechless.

Now, I am as poor as a beggar on the street, and all I need is a branch and a bowl to beg for food.

Rong Xueer shrank her legs.

The slightly intact piece of cloth barely covered the calves.

But the ankles were still exposed.

On the snow-white ankle, the wound caused by the branch was dripping with blood.

Just now, Rong Xueer was so anxious that she didn't feel anything. Now, seeing the wound in front of her, Rong Xueer couldn't help but gasp.

Fortunately, there were some trauma medicines in his Qiankun bag, so he could barely deal with it.

"Lu...Brother, do you need any medicine?"

Rong Xueer looked up and asked softly.

Thinking of the address of the person in front of her, a hint of doubt flashed in Rong Xueer's eyes.

Is he Lu Chen or Lu Yao?

If he is really Lu Chen, is he the Lu Chen who won the first place in the Nine Yang Competition?

Is he really the one who made his father willing to give away all the princesses?

Thinking of this, Rong Xueer's heart began to sink little by little.

Countless emotions flooded into her mind, and Rong Xueer didn't know how to describe her current mood.

"No, thanks."

Lu Chen's words were very brief, and he didn't even raise his head when answering Rong Xueer's question.

Rong Xueer also knew that the person in front of her must be very tired, so it would be better for her not to disturb him.

After a long time, the King Kong Ape stopped rioting and peace returned outside.

Lu Chen stood up slowly and then looked at Rong Xueer.

"You're not hurt, are you?"

Rong Xueer shook her head.

"I'm fine, Brother Lu, how are you?"

Running such a long distance while carrying myself on my back must have consumed a lot of energy.

When asking the question, Rong Xueer's eyes were full of worry.

Lu Chen dusted himself off.

"It's okay, it's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

After taking a look at the gap, Rong Xueer looked worried.

"We are surrounded by so many King Kong monkeys. How are we going to get out?"

"I heard that those spirit beasts already have human minds, and are even smarter than humans. They won't always be blocking the gap, right?"

"If that were the case, we would starve to death."

After saying this, the expression on Rong Xueer's face became more and more depressed.

Lu Chen slowed down his pace and quietly approached the crevice.

Through the light, he found that things were just as Rong Xueer said.

At this moment, there were many King Kong Monkeys waiting outside, and their eyes were all looking towards the cave entrance.

It seems like they won't stop until they catch them.

Lu Chen cautiously retreated back inside and walked in front of Rong Xueer again.

"The situation is not good. Those King Kong Spiritual Apes have not left and have been guarding the gap. Once we get out, they will attack."

Rong Xueer was anxious.

"What should I do?"

Lu Chen looked inside the cave. It was pitch black and he couldn't see what was going on inside.

Retracting his gaze, Lu Chen took out the Fire Fold from his arms and looked into the cave.

The cave entrance is very deep, and there are only stone walls as far as the eye can see.

Lu Chen pointed his finger into the cave.

"Since we can't get out, we might as well explore the cave. Maybe there are other exits in this cave."

Hearing these words, Rong Xueer's eyes lit up.

Why didn’t I think of this?

If it’s the same as what Lu Chen said, that would be great.

"Brother Lu, I will listen to you."

At this moment, Rong Xueer was very dependent on the man in front of her.

As long as I am with him, I will feel inexplicably angry and at ease.

Even Rong Xueer no longer cared about the true identity of the person in front of her.

Whether he is Lu Yao or Lu Chen, he is his benefactor.

This is an unchangeable fact.

This alone is enough.

If Lu Chen really lied to me, he must have had some compelling reasons.

Rong Xueer was very grateful that the person could take her along at such a dangerous moment.

What does identity matter?

He didn't want to tell the truth, so he pretended he didn't hear what happened.

Thinking of this, Rong Xueer's heart gradually calmed down.

Lu Chen, who was concentrating on finding a way out, did not notice the strange expression on Rong Xueer's face at all.

Naturally, he was unaware of the changes in her heart.

Lu Chen took out a torch from the spirit beast's bag. He led the way in front, and Rong Xueer followed behind.

Inside the cave, there are small pebbles underfoot, which make a crackling sound when you step on them.

Lu Chen walked forward, becoming more and more frightened. According to the distance just measured, he should have left the mountain long ago, but the cave entrance still meandered downwards.

It seems like there is no end in sight.

What exactly is this place? Why is there such a cave?

As he continued to move forward, all kinds of questions arose in Lu Chen's mind, and he felt more and more that the cave in front of him did not seem to be formed naturally.

The further you go, the rougher the road becomes.

Fortunately, I had a torch in my hand, otherwise I would have fallen down if I was not careful.

Exploring forward cautiously, suddenly, Lu Chen's face showed caution again, and even his steps stopped.

Although there is light in front of me, it is still a little dark around me.

Rong Xueer couldn't see the expression on Lu Chen's face clearly, she just followed Lu Chen forward.

So Lu Chen suddenly stopped, but Rong Xueer did not slow down, and accidentally almost bumped into him.

"oops!"

Rong Xueer let out a cry of surprise.

Although the sound was not loud, it could be heard very clearly in the cave.

Lu Chen stopped it quickly.

"Do not talk!"

Rong Xueer got up and covered her mouth with her hand. As she stopped, her breathing became much lighter.

At this time, there were some sounds of gravel breaking in the cave.

Lu Chen quickly took out a dagger!

Could it be that there are monsters in this cave?

But thinking about the gap in the mountain just now, there shouldn't be any.

If there really is a monster, then the entrance to the cave cannot be a crack, it should at least be a cave entrance.

How could the gap that they all had to enter sideways be big enough for the body of a monster?

The sound of gravel continued to sound. Lu Chen turned carefully and looked at Rong Xueer.

"Wait here and don't move. I'll go to the front to see what's going on."

Rong Xueer's heart was in her throat and she forced a nod.

Lu Chen took out another dagger and handed it to Rong Xueer.

"Take it."

Rong Xueer took the dagger and felt a little calmer.

Lu Chen was afraid of making noise while walking, so he leaned his entire back against the cave wall and climbed forward carefully.

As the sound got closer, Lu Chen threw the torch in his hand towards the place where the sound came from!

After a "pop" sound, the fire illuminated the situation ahead.

Only then did Lu Chen see clearly that it was actually an ordinary pangolin.

It turned out to be a false alarm.

Lu Chen drove the pangolin away, took back the torch, turned around and saw Rong Xueer.

After listening to this, Rong Xueer patted her chest.

"I was so scared, I thought I encountered some spirit beast again."

Lu Chen analyzed immediately.

"There shouldn't be any spirit beasts here. The cave entrance is so big, but the outside of the cave entrance is just a crack. This is enough to prove that there shouldn't be any spirit beasts here."

Only then did Rong Xueer put her mind back to where it belonged.

"that would be great."

Finding a way out is the top priority now.

Lu Chen looked ahead and continued speaking.

"Let's continue exploring inside. Maybe there will be a way out."

Rong Xueer smiled, and her voice became more relaxed.

"I hope so."

The two of them calmed down and continued to explore.

I don’t know how long I walked, but the entrance to the cave suddenly appeared in front of me!

The space inside is several times larger than that of the cave.

But the situation inside left them dumbfounded.

This place is like a center with holes on all sides!

Some of the holes are small and people cannot fit in at all, while some of the holes are very large, almost the same size as the hole that Lu Chen and his group came from.

The densely packed holes make one dizzy.

Lu Chen hurriedly stopped, closed his eyes, picked up a stone from under his feet, and drew a mark on the place where he had just come out.

Rong Xueer was a little dumbfounded.

"Brother Lu, what on earth is this place?"

Lu Chen shook his head, he was also confused.

The end of the cave seemed endless for a moment, and after walking forward for a while, the two men sat on the ground to rest.

Rong Xueer then asked.

"Brother Lu, I didn't have time to ask you, who were those five people chasing you outside just now?"

Lu Chen didn't want to waste time explaining, so he just spoke perfunctorily.

"A few enemies."

Rong Xueer said with a pout.

"I heard it just now. They seem to want to kill people and steal treasures. They are definitely not good people who can do such a thing!"

Thinking of what Qi Wangyue had just said, Rong Xueer was still feeling scared.

Lu Chen didn't say anything. He just looked at each hole carefully, his mind didn't seem to be here.

Then he discovered that the holes were of different sizes.

However, the degree of friction on the stone walls at each cave entrance is different. There are traces of friction on the walls of several large caves.

Lu Chen stood up quickly and looked carefully.

Rong Xueer: "Brother Lu, what did you find?"

Lu Chen stroked the scratches on the hole with his hand.

"There should be other monsters here. Look, there are traces of friction on the stones on the ground."

With Lu Chen's reminder, Rong Xueer discovered this.

"What kind of monster is this? Could it be a spirit beast?"

"Whether it is a demon beast or a spiritual beast, we must investigate it thoroughly. There must be an exit hidden in there."

If there really are spiritual beasts and demon beasts, they will definitely get out, which means that the entrance of the cave will definitely be connected to the outside world, and then their goal will be achieved.

Rong Xueer was a little worried.

"But...but if it's a spirit beast, wouldn't it be too dangerous?"

"No matter how dangerous it is, it shouldn't be as dangerous as the King Kong Spirit Ape outside."

The King Kong Monkey is a social animal. Although one King Kong Monkey is powerful, it is not scary, and they still have ways to deal with it.

At least there is a chance of escape.

But if there are so many King Kong Monkeys, they won’t even have a chance to escape.

In other words, even if there are spiritual beasts in this cave, as long as they are not social animals, they still have a way to deal with them.

This is also the only option they have.

Rong Xueer had no choice but to speak.

"I'll listen to you, Brother Lu."

From the moment the two met, Lu Chen became Rong Xueer's support.

Now in this environment, Rong Xueer's dependence on Lu Chen is increasing.

Coming to a cave entrance that was quite worn out, Lu Chen walked into the cave with a torch.

The cave is winding and the road under your feet is becoming more and more difficult to walk on.

They were afraid that there might be danger ahead, so the two of them did not move very fast.

After walking for a while, the space in front became larger and larger, the air became very humid, and there were actually trees, flowers and plants!

Rong Xueer was overjoyed when she saw it.

"Brother Lu, we are out!"

Lu Chen held the torch high and looked at the stone wall above. There was no sunlight at all. Although the dome was large and the space was not small, it was not like the outside world.

Lu Chen frowned.

"We should still be inside the cave and not out yet."

Rong Xueer bent down and smelled the flowers blooming on the ground.

“Why are there plants here?”

When Lu Chen saw traces of animals crawling in front of him, he spoke quickly.

"Be careful, there may be a monster here!"

Rong Xueer also noticed this. He held the dagger in front of his chest and hid behind Lu Chen.

Lu Chen explored forward carefully. The plants growing here were very strange. The trees growing here were all small trees, but the plants grew extremely lush, and some of the vegetation was even taller than the trees.

Lu Chen and Rong Xueer were interspersed among the vegetation, groping their way forward.
