The spirit of the broken world

Chapter 40: Exploring the Cave

"Li Xue, how did you know Xingkong's identity?"

Fu Hua, who had regained consciousness, asked first before Xingkong spoke.

"this one."

Cheng Lixue put the mask back on his face before starting to speak.

"To put it simply, it's because this guy saved me back then."

As soon as these words came out, Fu Hua looked at the starry sky and frowned.

"Monitor, please don't look at me like that. I was confused and said, I didn't even know this guy before."

Xingkong waved his hands hurriedly, saying that he didn't know anything.

"Master, don't ask this guy, he doesn't know either."

Cheng Lixue intervened to help Xingkong smooth things over.

"Didn't I say before that I couldn't tell Master who the person who saved me was for the time being?"

"Well, that's true."

“That’s because the guy didn’t take the initiative to say it at that time, and now you know it, it doesn’t matter.

But I don’t know anything about other things. After all, when this guy came to save me, he only told me some things that would not affect the present.For example, Master, you have a problem with your memory, and you don’t let me show my true face to others during this period of time. "

After Cheng Lixue finished speaking, he paused and said to Xingkong.

"Don't ask me what Fire Chasing Moth is or who Velvet is. I don't know these either."

After hearing this, Xingkong collapsed in the back seat, covering his face with his hands and wailing.

"Really, I hate the Riddler the most!"

"Deserving it."

Cheng Lixue smiled without any sympathy.

"Okay, here we are."

Cheng Lixue stopped the car, and Xingkong realized that they had arrived at a base.

"Next, let's take a plane to Kunlun Mountain here."

Cheng Lixue said, taking Fu Hua's hand and walking towards the nearest parked plane.

"Wait for me."

On the plane, the three of them sat side by side, with Fu Hua in the middle and Cheng Lixue and Xingkong sitting on both sides.

"Did something happen on Lixue Kunlun Mountain?"

Fu Hua finally found the opportunity to ask Cheng Lixue about the specific matters of this mission.

Xingkong also pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Oh, it's a long story."

Cheng Lixue sighed, organized his words and said.

"Master, you probably don't remember that besides you, the immortal, there is another guardian in China who is our totem. I heard you mention him before.

You said that he had been guarding Shenzhou with you since before Ji Lin's time. You didn't tell me what happened afterwards. You just said that he had been sleeping in Kunlun Mountain. "

"Did you find something wrong with the dragon?"

Fu Hua's brows twisted into the character "Chuan". This was no small matter.

"Well, since a few days ago, the reaction of Honkai energy on Kunlun Mountain has been very unstable, and there are many high-level Honkai beasts coming, as if they were attracted by something.

Moreover, you personally built the cave where the divine dragon is entrenched, and we cannot open it. I was helpless about this situation and had no choice but to ask Master for help. "

Cheng Lixue also said helplessly.

"Master Cheng Hua, we have arrived at our destination."

In the cab, the driver's voice came.

"Aren't we still in the air?"

Xingkong looked at the white clouds outside that were at the same height as him and asked.

"There may be a place to land planes here, and there are other reasons. This place has always been a no-fly zone."

Cheng Lixue said, taking out the parachute and handing it to them.

"No need to go to such trouble, I can just fly you down."

Xingkong said, grabbing their arms, opening the door and rushing in.

"what………!"

Cheng Lixue was stunned for a moment, and the next second she found herself thousands of miles above the sky.

"Calm down, calm down, what are you afraid of when I'm here?"

Xingkong's slightly speechless voice came to his ears, and Cheng Lixue realized that he was being caught by this guy.

"Xingkong, stop making trouble, let's get down quickly."

"Okay, squad leader, we're leaving now."

Xingkong cracked his mouth and smiled, then dived straight down.

"Hey, I haven't flown like this for a long time."

"Slow down, you stupid elf!"

Cheng Lixue's mournful cry spread far and wide in the sky...

"Welcome to take the Spirit flight. Remember to give us a good review."

Xingkong said with a smile on the two of them.

Cheng Lixue glared at him, ignored him, and opened the map.

"Well, good, it's around here, let's go!"

Under the leadership of Cheng Lixue, after walking for another ten minutes, they finally came to a cave.

Looking at the dark cave that was one person wide, Xingkong silently raised a question.

"Isn't this place a bit small?"

"Are you an idiot? Didn't I just say that this is the cave my master built himself? Why leave such a big entrance?"

Cheng Lixue patted Xingkong's back and said speechlessly.

"Oh, your master...wait a minute, you said this was built by Fu Hua?"

Xingkong suddenly raised his voice, turned to look at Fu Hua and said.

"Squad leader, are you the immortal who protects China?"

"Is the reflex arc of your elves so long? I thought you were very calm on the plane just now, but it turns out you didn't react."

Cheng Lixue twitched the corner of her mouth and said very speechlessly.

Fu Hua chuckled lightly, and then said calmly.

"Don't worry about immortals or anything like that. What's important for us now is to see how he is doing."

After Fu Hua finished speaking, he stepped forward and entered the cave entrance first. The two of them looked at each other and followed.

"Sometimes, you are quite convenient."

Cheng Lixue said while looking at the starry sky where a star condensed in his hand to illuminate the road.

"Humph."

After walking for nearly 10 minutes, the space in front of me suddenly opened up. A tall stone door stood at the end of the space. The stone walls on both sides were covered with glowing unknown lichen. It was emitting faint fluorescence and I could barely see the road clearly.

"So, how do you open this door?"

Xingkong patted the thick stone door, took two steps back and clenched his fists.

"How about I just smash it?"

"Although that method is also possible, is there a possibility that this thing can actually be opened with a key?"

Cheng Lixue shook the diamond-shaped crystal in his hand and looked at the starry sky with a very strange look.

"Cough cough."

Xingkong Tactics coughed a few times and silently stepped aside.

Cheng Lixue placed the crystal in the gap on the door. The next second as the crystal emitted light, the thick stone door moved, shaking off a lot of dust.

Xingkong watched Cheng Lixue take the crystal back, then looked at the door, which had not changed, with a very confused look. Just as he was about to speak, Cheng Lixue walked up to him and patted his shoulder.

"Now is the time to use your power, go and push the door open!"

Xingkong rolled his eyes and walked to the door speechlessly.

"Li Xue, don't mess around. The three of us should work together."

Fu Hua spoke to Cheng Lixue and then suggested.

"No need, squad leader, leave this kind of thing to me."

Xingkong looked back and smiled, then put his hands on the door, took a deep breath, and began to exert force.

With a heavy creaking sound, the thick stone door was slowly pushed open, and what they saw was a straight and wide road leading to the depths. The stone walls on both sides seemed to have the same fluorescent lichen as outside, and the light shone on them. Light the way.

The next second, a small bug, probably shaken off by the vibration of the door opening, landed right on Xingkong's nose.

"What's up with him?"

Cheng Lixue asked Fu Hua, looking at the starry sky that suddenly froze motionless.

"I do not know either."

Fu Hua shook his head.

The next second, a piercing scream echoed throughout the underground space.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh... Bugs!!! So disgusting!!!"

Xingkong jumped directly against the door, turned his back to them, and started retching.

"Wow, I think I saw something amazing."

Cheng Lixue's eyes widened.

"Forehead……"

Fu Hua held his forehead with one hand and shook his head gently.

"My squad leader, have you dug this place out?"

After walking for about ten minutes, Xingkong at the front finally couldn't help but turned around and complained to the squad leader.

"Even if you tell me this, I can't remember it clearly."

Fu Hua also shook his head helplessly.

"Oh, let's continue...Ah!!!"

Xingkong had just turned around and hadn't finished speaking. The moment his right foot touched the ground, the ground collapsed. Xingkong was unsteady and fell downwards. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed the edge with his right hand in time, and his falling body stopped instantly.

Looking down at Xingkong, there was a sudden chill. The ground below was covered with dense ice cones that shone with the light of death.

Pull your right arm upwards and return to the ground easily.

"Squad leader, why are there traps here?"

Facing Xingkong's question, Fu Hua was helpless and shook his head innocently.

"Starry Sky, I have lost a lot of memory. I really can't remember these things."

"Is that so?"

Xingkong thought for a moment and said.

"Then I'll open the way in front, so be careful."

Xingkong looked at them and said seriously.

"I'm an elf and my physique is much better than yours. I can open the way just right. Let's speed up!"

Xingkong looked at them and said very seriously, without leaving any room for them to refute, he turned around and left first.

"This guy."

Cheng Lixue looked at his back and muttered softly.

Fu Hua looked at his back and frowned, feeling a little familiar...

After walking for a while, Xingkong suddenly felt that the ground beneath his feet had sunk a little. The next second, the walls on both sides opened, and countless small arrows shot out.

"Ah this..."

Xingkong looked at the arrows outside the barrier that were about to pile up on his insteps, and finally resisted the thought of complaining.

After walking for a while, there was another click.

Xingkong looked back, and Cheng Lixue turned her head away in embarrassment.

The next second, the walls on both sides vibrated, squeezing toward the middle.

"Why should I stand there? Run quickly!"

Xingkong shouted and took the lead to run away, and the two girls quickly followed.

Before they could catch their breath after running out, the stone wall above the three of them and the closed wall behind them suddenly opened. In their shocked eyes, a huge ball crashed to the ground and began to roll towards them...

"Squad leader, after this mission is over, you have to ask for a few more days off for me."

Xingkong tried his best to support the ball to prevent it from rolling, turned his head and said to Fu Hua.

"Well, can I just blow up this place?"

"Of course not, you idiot, this place is all connected. If you collapse the whole place, what are we going to investigate?"

"Then why are you two still standing here pushing this thing? Why don't you run to a safe place quickly!"

Starry Sky yelled loudly.

"Be safe, Starry Sky."

After Fu Hua finished speaking, he grabbed Cheng Lixue's arm and flew back.

After a while, Xingkong leaned on the ball that hit the corner and stopped, and said speechlessly.

"How far behind is there?"

"I don't know, but we've been walking for so long, so it should be soon, right?"

Fu Hua looked at the still endless passage and said uncertainly.

After walking for a long time, they finally came to the end of the passage.

A larger cavity, at the end of which is also a tall stone door, with two statues holding swords on both sides of the door.

Xingkong looked straight at the two statues, feeling that there was a familiar aura on them.

When they walked to the front of the door, the eyes of the two statues suddenly glowed with golden light, and the stone fragments on the surface fell with their movements, revealing the shiny bodies inside.

"Ah, what is this? You can't say it's a statue, right?"

Starsky asked, pointing to the moving statue.

"Well, if I'm right, this should be the puppet from before."

"No matter what it is, we must defeat these two puppets if we want to get there."

Fu Hua took a fighting stance, and before he finished speaking, he rushed forward and punched the puppet's body hard, making a muffled sound.

Xingkong and another puppet exchanged punches, and both of them took a step back at the same time.

"Tsk, this thing is pretty hard and strong."

Before he finished speaking, the puppet slashed with his sword, leaving a crack in the place where Xingkong had just stood.

"No more playing, let's fight quickly."

The light in Xingkong's eyes lit up, and his spiritual power-wrapped fist hit the puppet hard. The puppet took a few steps back and roared, and the attack became even more powerful than before.

"Interesting, can it also absorb spiritual power? I'm more curious about what's inside."

Xingkong said and took a step back, making a fist with his right hand towards the puppet. In the next second, several star chains came out of the void and locked the puppet.

The starry sky gathered energy, the arms formed an L, and the bright light completely shattered the puppet's body.

Then I looked at the battle situation over there. The puppet was at a disadvantage and had many cracks on its body.

"This thing is at most the level of a top A-level Valkyrie. It can easily stand up to an S-level and an A-level."

After seeing this situation, Xingkong walked to the fragments of the puppet and started rummaging around. After rummaging for a while, Xingkong finally found what he was looking for.

"It's a little more advanced than the spiritual crystal I'm making now, but it seems to only have the function of increasing strength."

Staring at the dim spiritual crystal in his hand, Xingkong frowned.

"what happened to you?"

Cheng Lixue walked over and saw Xingkong's appearance and asked doubtfully.

"Does that puppet of yours have this thing?"

Xingkong shook the spirit crystal and asked.

"Did you mean this?"

Fu Hua spread his right hand and saw an equally dim spiritual crystal lying quietly in his palm...
