   Chen Yu immediately jumped up from the ground. Before the friends could react, she almost flew towards the boulder as she ran.



    The remaining five people froze, but they also scrambled up and chased after her. 

    The boulder looked entirely ordinary. At closer look, they found a vine coiled on it, which was different from the withered and black vines around it. The vine was lush and was growing robustly.

    Chen Yu examined it closer and faintly felt a powerful aura from the inside of the boulder.

    There is really something inside!

    Just as Chen Yu stretched her hand to touch it, a bright seven-colored spiritual light shot out from inside the boulder without warning.

    “It’s this light!” Liang Yu said excitedly, “Phone signal.”

    Liang Yu lowered his head and took out his phone, but unfortunately, when he raised his phone up, the signal was once again blocked, and the message he edited in advance was not sent out.

    “We seem to have seen this light a while ago,” Shao Qi recalled.

    “Yes, I saw it not long ago.” Lu Ning stood next to Chen Yu and observed the boulder for a while, and also sensed something inside. “It seems there’s really something here.”

    “What could it be?” Everyone wondered.

    Chen Yu stood in front of the boulder, a bit stunned. She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but the moment the seven-colored spiritual light appeared just now, she felt that the evil qi on her body seemed to have decreased a little. However, the time when the colorful spiritual light appeared was too short, making her a little uncertain. Was her evil qi naturally evaporated from her body or absorbed by the colorful spiritual light?

    With such a doubt, Chen Yu decided to reach out and try it out.

    “Don’t move!” Qin Guanhai, who had been standing on the periphery, saw Chen Yu reaching out to touch the boulder and suddenly perceived a strong danger. He quickly called her to a stop, but unfortunately, he was a step too late.

    The moment Chen Yu’s palm touched the boulder, a towering evil spirit suddenly rushed out from within the boulder. A dark and heavy mass blasted in the air, but something seemingly blocked it. Finally, it scattered in all directions. Immediately afterwards, a dull hissing emanated within the boulder, and the huge boulder began to tremble violently. It was as if something was pinned down by the boulder, and it was trying to push it away and jump out from inside.



    “What is this?” The group stared in horror at the huge boulder that kept shaking.

    “Roar… Roar…”

    “Inside… it seems… there’s…”

    “Zombie!” Chen Yu asserted, “From the concentration of evil qi just now, I’m afraid this is a millennium-old zombie!”

    When the five people heard that it was a millennium-old, their faces instantly turned white as sheets. A zombie and a malevolent ghost weren’t at all on the same level, okay? With their strength today, how could they beat a millennium-old zombie?!

    “Great… Great God, can you beat this millennium-old zombie?” Liang Yu tremblingly asked Chen Yu, the only calm one.

    “I can’t!” Chen Yu shook her head bluntly. Although she bluffed Lou Ming the first time they met that she could catch a millennium-old zombie easily,… that was because the old man was around ah!!!

    “Th-Then what are we going to do?”

    “We’d better brainstorm on how to get out,” said Chen Yu. As long as they could get out, she could fetch the old man and everything would be fine, so she turned around and moved to continue searching for the exit.

    “I’m afraid it’s useless.” Liang Guang said sullenly, “I have been curious about who would set up such a large formation here. Now, nine out of ten, it is probably to trap this zombie. If this is the case, I’m afraid we can’t get out without getting rid of the zombie.”

    Thinking about the possibility of this speculation, the faces of the friends turned a few shades whiter.

    “Graaa… Graaa…” The boulder trembled more and more violently, and the zombie’s roar sounded even more shrill.

    “Ka-chow!” A faint cracking sounded. Amidst the zombie’s roar and the boulder’s shaking, that crack was akin to a thunderbolt that fell on everyone’s ears.

    A crack in the boulder?

    “It’s coming out.” Everyone retreated three meters away in fright.



    “I told you not to touch it,” Qin Guanhai said weakly.

    “Uh…” the culprit, Chen Yu, laughed dryly, “This zombie’s senses are too keen. A mere touch actually woke it up, hehehe…”

    When Lou Ming and Elder Wu arrived at the valley, Cheng Peng and Tian Fei were waiting there anxiously.

    “Third Young Master!”

    “Third Young Master!”

    The two hurriedly greeted the approaching Lou Ming and his company.

    “Where did Shishi go missing?” Lou Ming asked anxiously.

    “Here.” Cheng Peng did not dare to delay and pointed to the location where Chen Yu was standing before her disappearance. He added, “At that time, Tian Fei and I were behind a pine tree ten meters away, and Miss Chen Yu was standing here. She seemed to want to enter the valley, so she took a step forward. After just one step, she disappeared entirely into thin air.”

    “Disappeared into thin air?” Lou Ming repeated incredulously.

    “I was staring at Miss Chen Yu, and I didn’t even blink. Just one step, about two seconds before and after, Miss Chen Yu disappeared in a puff right under my eyes,” Cheng Peng stressed again and again.

    Lou Ming frowned, looking at the valley in full view and asked, “Where have you all searched?”

    “We searched the surrounding woods, but we still couldn’t find her.” Tian Fei not only didn’t find Chen Yu, but also drove away three malevolent ghosts along the way.

    “Elder Wu…” Lou Ming was about to turn his head to ask Elder Wu for help, but he was taken aback when he saw him standing on the hill and looking ahead: “Elder Wu, is there anything wrong?”

    “Awesome…” Elder Wu clicked his tongue in astonishment. “I didn’t expect a magical barrier to be here.”

    “A magical barrier?” Lou Ming had read about magical barriers from books and knew what it was, “Could it be that Shishi is inside? Elder Wu, do you have a way to unseal the barrier?”



    “A magical barrier is a very advanced formation. Nowadays…” Elder Wu said, “I don’t know if others know how. Anyway, I can’t do it.”

    Even Elder Wu couldn’t unseal it? Lou Ming’s face turned white, and his heartbeat seemed to have stopped.

    “I’ll call and ask Master Mao,” Lou Ming said and was about to call.

    “If he’s capable of it, he would have been able to separate the evil qi from your body,” Elder Wu spat.

    “Then what should we do?” Among the masters Lou Ming knew, Master Mao was considered the one with the highest cultivation level.

    “I’ll go in first and take a look!” Elder Wu pondered for a moment and said, “I hope that girl is okay.”

    “I’ll go with you,” Lou Ming said immediately.

    “Do as you please!” Elder Wu raised his eyebrows indifferently. He turned around and stepped into the barrier, then he, too, disappeared in front of the crowd’s eyes.

    Seeing such a miraculous spectacle, the crowd was startled again.

    Lou Ming followed closely. He was about to step in, but He Qi stopped him: “Young Master, you can’t go in.”

    “He Qi.”

    “Young Master, as Mr. Wu said just now, he can’t unseal the barrier. If he goes in, he may not come out. You can’t go in.” After He Qi finished speaking, the rest of the assistants quickly followed suit and blocked his way.

    Lou Ming stopped in his tracks and didn’t order He Qi to get out of the way. After a moment of meditation, he suddenly said, “You should know that I like Shishi.”

    The assistants were stunned. They couldn’t understand why their Young Master suddenly confessed his love.



    “Your responsibility is to keep me safe, and I know what I’m doing now is very irresponsible for you guys, but… Shishi is in there,” Lou Ming said, “I want to go in.”

    He Qi opened his mouth, but those countless words to stop him that piled up to his throat suddenly couldn’t get out.

    “Elder Wu has already gone in. He must have a way to save Miss Chen Yu,” Cheng Peng said on He Qi’s behalf.

    “But I’m standing right here.” Lou Ming asked, “If the person you like is in danger inside, can you stand here and wait for others to save her?”

    No!

    This answer crossed everyone’s mind.

    Elder Wu waited inside the barrier until Lou Ming came in, then he asked as if he had forgotten what he said, “I told you, right? You might not get out once you’re in.”

    “You did.” Lou Ming smiled gently.

    The author has something to say: 

    After Lou Ming entered the magical barrier, the assistants also wanted to follow, but could not enter the boundary.

    He Qi wondered: Why can they enter, but we can’t?

    Cheng Peng: Elder Wu is a Celestial Master.

    He Qi: What about Young Master?

    Tian Fei: Young Master is the son-in-law of a Celestial Master’s family.
