"There's no major problem, just overly exhausted and affected by some repercussions. I didn't expect Zhao Qinghai's soul power to be so formidable. However, I believe he's not much better off than me." Cuiyu said softly, as she popped a medicinal pill into her mouth.

"It's good that you're okay. This time, you were implicated because of me." Li Lin said softly, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and also took out a healing pill and put it into his mouth.

"Boss, there are demonic beasts approaching, a fifth-level early-stage demonic beast." At this moment, Little Dragon vigilantly watched a part of the forest in the sky, his small eyes shooting out sharp gleams.

"Roar roar..."

A beastly roar vibrated through the valley, and with a huge tremor in the forest, a gigantic demonic beast, measuring four hundred meters, appeared outside the forest.

This demonic beast was a giant python, covered in thick scales, four hundred meters long and tens of meters in diameter. Most bizarrely, this giant python had two huge heads, each with only one giant eye, radiating a bloody and ferocious light, staring at Li Lin and Cuiyu.

"It's a dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao." Cuiyu's face also showed some surprise at this moment, sensing the aura of the giant python, which had already reached the early stages of the fifth level.

"I didn't expect it to be this kind of demonic beast. This beast is extremely rare to encounter." Li Lin exclaimed. The dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao was not an ordinary beast. Just like there are dual-element warriors among humans, this demonic Jiao is a dual-element beast among demonic beasts, with formidable strength. At the level of a fifth-level early-stage demonic beast, its strength is feared to be incomparable even to an average fourth-tier martial general.

"This place is an ancient land scattered from the past, so it's normal to have some extremely rare demonic beasts." Cuiyu said lightly, her gaze also becoming more solemn.

"This is bad." Li Lin immediately thought to himself. He was already struggling against Zhao Qingtian, a second-tier martial general, and now facing the dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao, he was even less capable.

"Another three years, and humans have come again." Watching Li Lin and Cuiyu, the dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao suddenly spoke in human language, its expression somewhat excited, its eyes tightly fixed on Li Lin and Cuiyu.

"What should we do?" Cuiyu said next to Li Lin.

"Run." Li Lin said lightly. At this moment, they were utterly incapable of fighting again, especially against a fifth-level demonic beast, definitely not having the strength.

"Chi..." Little Dragon exhaled a breath, his gaze tightly fixed on the huge dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao in front of them, and said to Li Lin, "Boss, this dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao is very powerful, you guys run fast, I'll hold it off for a while."

"No, you're not its opponent either, we'll leave together." Li Lin said lightly, treating Little Dragon as close as a brother, naturally, he wouldn't let Little Dragon stay behind to take risks.

"Boss, don't worry. Although the dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao is powerful, I can hold it off for a while. It won't hurt me. You guys go quickly, I will naturally find you later." Little Dragon's voice said in Li Lin's mind.

"Little Dragon, be careful, don't take any risks." Li Lin hesitated for a moment, then admonished Little Dragon, and then said to Cuiyu next to him, "Let's go quickly."

As they finished speaking, the two hurriedly fled forward.

"Still want to run?" The dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao said lightly, its huge body swiftly pouncing forward.

"Hiss hiss!"

At this moment, Little Dragon's small body suddenly returned to its original size, although it was nearly half smaller than the dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao, a burst of absolute ferocious aura spread out, seemingly not inferior to Little Dragon.

"The aura of a Demon Emperor, not... the aura of a Spirit Emperor, nor..."

At this moment, feeling the sudden appearance of Little Dragon, the dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao instantly stopped its pursuit of Li Lin and Cuiyu in shock.

"Hiss hiss!" The dual-headed water-fire demonic Jiao hissed deeply, seemingly communicating something with Little Dragon.

"Run fast." Li Lin and Cuiyu hurried all the way, not daring to stop, though worried about Little Dragon, but Li Lin also knew of Little Dragon's extraordinary, at least its defensive power was terrifying.

"There's a dense forest ahead, let's go into the forest."

A dense forest appeared in front of the two, better for hiding. The two hurried into the forest without stopping, with a fifth-level demonic beast behind them.

Just then, while both were focused on escaping, they didn't see outside the dense forest, on a towering tree, there were two big characters written: Forbidden Land.

The two walked straight into the dense forest, just focusing on moving forward.

"Something seems wrong, why has it gotten a bit dark?" After a moment, Li Lin's face suddenly changed, stopping in his tracks, looking around. Inside this dense area, there was never day or night, but now it seemed a bit dark, Li Lin immediately sensed something unusual.

Cuiyu stood still, her beautiful eyes scanning the surroundings, then with a shocked expression said, "This is bad, we might have entered an ancient formation."

"Ancient formation?" Li Lin's face also darkened, having heard from his master, Yu Yu, that within this dense land were ancient formations, even the strong ones from the Yunyang Sect dared not recklessly intrude, it seems they were really in trouble now.

"This dense land itself is an ancient land scattered from the past, it's not surprising to have ancient formations, but this ancient formation shouldn't be complete, we now only have to try and see if we can get out." Cuiyu looked around and said.

Li Lin also looked around solemnly, still inside the dense forest, surrounded by towering trees, with several winding stone paths around, the originally dim sky was not visible, the whole sky seemed to be enveloped in a layer of black fog, the visibility was dim.

"Cuiyu, how much do you know about formations?" Li Lin looked around and asked.

"I only know a little bit, maybe not enough to say I understand." Cuiyu said with a bitter smile.

In Li Lin's mind, the knowledge of formations recorded in the Heavenly Spirit Record left by his master, the Holy Hand Spirit, instantly surfaced.

His mind probed out, sensing the aura within the surrounding space, after a moment, Li Lin said, "Let's go to the left and see."

The two then went down a stone path on the left, the surrounding space was deadly silent, without even the sound of the wind, everything in the space was like a still painting.

This situation also made both of them feel a bit numb in their hearts.

"Too quiet, what kind of formation is this?" Two hours later, Li Lin pondered to himself. After walking for two hours, they were still on the stone path, the space within seemed boundless.

"I've heard of some ancient formations, even martial kings, even martial venerables entering are more likely to meet with misfortune than fortune, hopefully, this ancient formation isn't some malevolent formation." Cuiyu said lightly.

"Be careful..."

As Cuiyu's words just fell, at that moment, under their feet, for some reason, a huge spatial air current vortex suddenly appeared.

Under their feet, in an instant, it became a vacuum, as if a huge spatial black hole appeared out of nowhere under their feet, and the two directly fell into the vacuum below.

"This is bad." Li Lin's wings of wind instantly condensed, in this lightning-fast moment, he immediately grabbed Cuiyu.

"Huh huh..."

The huge spatial air current vortex suddenly roared, like a vortex spinning, Li Lin was about to leap up, but was immediately sucked by a distance, unable to leap out of the vacuum with his wings fluttering.

"Damn it." Li Lin cursed silently, his true qi surged out, the wings of wind exerted to the extreme, his body slowly moving upwards, but the vortex below became stronger, sucking his body back in again.

"Lin'er, don't worry about me anymore, there might still be a chance to escape." Being held in Li Lin's arms, Cuiyu said.

"No, I can't leave you behind since you're with me, I can't abandon you, besides you didn't abandon me in the valley." Li Lin said, his meridians' true qi surged into the wings of wind, but was utterly unable to escape from the vacuum vortex's grasp, the sucking force was getting stronger.

"But if you're carrying me, we might both die." Cuiyu said.

"Even so, I can't leave you behind. If we're unlucky and really going to die, then so be it." Li Lin gritted his teeth and said, although he was not a good person, he couldn't do such a thing.

"Huh huh..."

The vacuum vortex became more and more powerful, the roaring sound deafening, the huge suction force had reached a terrifying level, Li Lin was becoming more strained, the huge suction force acting on his body, his body sinking down, the dark sky above slowly disappearing.

"You fool, now even if you leave me, you can't escape." Under this violent suction force, Cuiyu naturally felt this majestic force, blaming Li Lin verbally, but her heart was actually trembling.

"Be careful, there seems to be a soul attack inside this vortex." Li Lin said solemnly, in this violent vacuum vortex, there was also a huge invisible force that could absolutely restrain the soul.

"Not good, protect your soul." Cuiyu exclaimed, at this moment, Cuiyu felt an invisible energy penetrating into her soul space.

Li Lin had already mobilized a majestic spiritual force to protect his own soul pill, but the violent force was getting stronger, his mind was suffering from a huge energy infiltration, becoming dizzy.

"Huh huh." The two bodies were now completely sucked into the vacuum vortex, the dark sky above also disappeared, the violent force growing stronger.

"Qingling Armor." Under the tearing of this violent force, Li Lin felt as if his internal organs were also vibrating, quickly set up the Qingling Armor.

"Think of a way, we're probably trapped in an ancient formation, otherwise, we're definitely going to die." Cuiyu said to Li Lin, also setting up a light circle around herself.
