Crossing to Douqi Continent and walking sideways

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er practiced with all their might in the Mingtan Spring. The energy of the Mingtan Spring seeped into their meridians like water, nourishing their bodies. The aura of the two gradually increased, and a faint light appeared around them.

However, just as they were getting better and better and were about to touch the critical threshold of a breakthrough, an extremely huge suction force came from the bottom of the Mingtan Spring without warning. This suction force was extremely overbearing, as if a prehistoric giant beast hidden in the darkness suddenly awakened, opened its huge mouth that could swallow the world, and suddenly dragged the two people's bodies to the bottom of the spring.

Xiao Muchen was shocked and immediately mobilized the Dou Qi in his body. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and a series of bright Dou Qi runes appeared in front of him, trying to resist this terrifying suction. His clothes fluttered in the water, and the light around him shone like stars, but in the face of this extremely brutal suction, his resistance was like an ant trying to shake a tree, and he could not change his fate of being pulled.

Lin Wan'er was even more frightened, her exquisite and beautiful face was now filled with panic and deep fear. She tightly grasped the staff in her hands, and quickly chanted the mysterious and ancient spell. Brilliant spell lights gushed out from the top of the staff, trying to stabilize her body. However, the seemingly powerful spell lights were like a weak candlelight swaying in the wind in front of this suction force, and were instantly swallowed up and had no effect.

Seeing that the two were about to be sucked into the bottomless abyss at the bottom of the spring, which was full of unknown horrors, Xiao Muchen made a quick decision, with a flash of determination in his eyes. He suddenly grabbed Lin Wan'er's soft and boneless jade hand tightly, and in his palm, the two powerful fire powers of the netherworld poisonous fire and the wind and thunder raging flames instantly gathered. The flames burned in the water, and the surrounding water was burned and steamed. He shouted and blasted towards the bottom of the spring with all his strength.

"boom!"

A loud noise echoed in the spring water, the sound waves were surging, the water splashed everywhere, and the whole Mingtan Spring seemed to tremble. However, the suction force only weakened for a moment, and then pulled them with even greater force. This force was so strong that it seemed to pull their bodies and souls into the endless dark abyss mercilessly, and there would be no day for them to turn over.

Just when they were about to fall into the abyss of despair, a mysterious and brilliant light suddenly shot out from Xiao Muchen's storage ring. The light was dazzling, like a scorching sun rising in the dark spring, illuminating the surrounding darkness. In the light, an ancient jade pendant was faintly visible, and the jade pendant was engraved with strange and mysterious runes. Those runes were like agile snakes, flashing mysterious light, interweaving into complex and mysterious patterns.

The light emitted by the jade pendant actually counteracted the suction of the Mingtan Spring, causing their sinking speed to slow down significantly. Xiao Muchen looked at the jade pendant that suddenly appeared, his heart full of doubts and surprise: "This jade pendant is..." He tried to search deep in his memory, but he couldn't remember the origin and purpose of the jade pendant.

Taking advantage of this brief respite, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er tried to adjust their disordered breathing, trying to calm themselves from extreme panic. Their heartbeats were beating rapidly, like the roar of an excited war drum, and they were particularly clear in the silent spring water. But before they could come up with a response, the light on the jade pendant began to flicker, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

"Oh no, the jade pendant can't hold on any longer!" Lin Wan'er exclaimed, her voice filled with anxiety and worry. The voice spread in the spring water, with a hint of trembling and despair.

Sure enough, the light of the jade pendant dimmed instantly, like a falling meteor, disappearing into the darkness. The powerful suction force once again took the upper hand, dragging the two people towards the bottom of the spring in a more brutal and violent manner.

During this rapid sinking process, Xiao Muchen, with his extraordinary eyesight, discovered that there seemed to be some strange patterns on the wall of the spring. Those patterns were winding and emitting a faint and strange light, as if some ancient and mysterious formation was quietly operating.

"Could this suction be related to these lines?" Xiao Muchen thought to himself, his brain working rapidly, thinking about various possibilities. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but he quickly denied them.

In a flash, just as they were about to be sucked into the bottom of the spring, Xiao Muchen tried his best to thrust the Star Sword in his hand into the spring wall. The sword collided with the spring wall, splashing a string of dazzling sparks, illuminating the surrounding darkness. The two men finally stopped at this critical moment. But at this moment, their situation was still precarious. The Star Sword made a "crackling" sound under the huge pulling force, and tiny cracks began to appear on the sword body, as if it would break in the next moment.

Lin Wan'er's delicate body trembled slightly, but her beautiful eyes were filled with determination. She looked at Xiao Muchen and said, "Muchen, we can't just sit there and wait to die." Although her voice contained a hint of fear, it was more of indomitable spirit and courage.

Xiao Muchen nodded, his eyes firm as iron, and responded: "You are right, let's try to study these patterns, maybe we can find a way to crack it." His voice was steady and powerful, giving Lin Wan'er a little comfort and hope.

So, at this critical moment, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er held on to the Star Sword tightly to prevent themselves from being pulled down by the suction force again, while carefully observing the lines on the spring wall. Those lines were complex and mysterious, as if they contained the most profound secrets between heaven and earth. Each line seemed to be telling an ancient story, waiting for them to interpret.

Xiao Muchen suppressed his fear and anxiety and carefully distinguished the direction and changes of each line. He found that these lines seemed to have some rules, as if they were running according to a specific energy flow trajectory.

"Wan'er, look at these lines. They seem to be running along some kind of energy flow trajectory." Xiao Muchen said, his voice sounding a little dull in the water.

Lin Wan'er frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps we can try to disrupt this trajectory. Maybe we can destroy this formation and get rid of the suction." There was a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

Xiao Muchen took a deep breath and said, "We can only give it a try!"

He once again mobilized the Dou Qi in his body, injected the powerful Dou Qi into the Star Sword, and then controlled the sword body to move slowly along those lines, trying to disrupt its trajectory.

However, the moment the Star Sword touched those patterns, a powerful recoil force instantly came, which directly numbed Xiao Muchen's arm and almost made him lose consciousness.

"Not good!" Xiao Muchen cried in his heart.

But there was no way out at this time, Xiao Muchen gritted his teeth and exerted his strength again. This time, he also injected the power of the Netherworld Poison Fire and the Wind and Thunder Rage Flame into the Star Sword. On the sword body, the strange fire burned fiercely, fighting against the recoil force.

Lin Wan'er watched nervously from the side, with her staff in her hand ready to help at any time. Her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and her eyes were full of concern and tension.

After a difficult confrontation, the recoil force finally began to weaken. Seeing this, Xiao Muchen was overjoyed and sped up his movements.

Just when they thought they were about to succeed, there was a sudden and even more violent vibration from the bottom of the spring, and a suction force even stronger than before suddenly erupted.

"Ah!" Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er exclaimed in unison.

The two of them fell uncontrollably to the bottom of the spring again, so fast that they had no time to react. The surrounding water surged rapidly, forming huge whirlpools that seemed to swallow them up completely.

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er's faces turned extremely pale, and their eyes were filled with despair. But in this despair, there was a hint of unwillingness and stubbornness...
