For Lin Yu, saving He Buxian was just a small favor, nothing special, but for He Buxian, it was a life-saving act.

At this moment, Lin Yu had no time to care about what He Buxian was thinking. He had already activated the Hongmeng System to thoroughly investigate the surrounding situation.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that that mysterious power could attack He Buxian right before his eyes already shows that the opponent's strength is extraordinary.

Such provocative behavior is tantamount to touching a tiger's tail.

Lin Yu has a good temper, but not so good that he can tolerate someone dancing wildly in his own sensitive area.

After this battle, Lin Yu finally understood that his opponent was provoking him.

They were now standing deep in the earth, and what Lin Yu and He Buxian did not expect was that the walls deep in the earth were not smooth, but full of sharp spikes and protrusions, and they would be damaged if they were not careful.

After all that ordeal, He Buxian's spiritual energy was completely exhausted. He barely survived thanks to Lin Yu's help.

Although Lin Yu maintained a calm expression, he soon discovered that all the spiritual power within his body had been sealed.

"This place is truly eerie," Lin Yu thought to himself.

This was the first time Lin Yu had encountered such a situation since arriving in the fantasy world.

Thinking back, ever since I entered the fantasy world and acquired the Hongmeng System, I've spent most of my time in the Primordial Hall.

For a period of time after Lin Yu first obtained the Hongmeng System, the system completely prohibited Lin Yu from leaving the area outside the Primordial Hall.

At first, Lin Yu didn't understand the meaning of this setting, but now that he has inadvertently fallen into the Dao Qi era, he finally understands it completely.

The arrays of this ancient era are truly too sinister; a slight misstep could lead to a place where spiritual power is sealed.

Once a cultivator's spiritual power is sealed, they are no different from ordinary people, except perhaps for having a slightly stronger physique.

"Perhaps the Hongmeng System initially prohibited the host from leaving the area where the Primordial Hall was located in order to avoid danger," Lin Yu speculated.

However, this feature is clearly a function of the Hongmeng System from the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era, and the Hongmeng System of the current Dao Qi era is obviously not as intelligent.

"No wonder this system needs an update and upgrade. If I'm not careful, the host might die because of it," Lin Yu thought to himself.

If it weren't for my own immense strength and the fact that I had already tempered my body after glimpsing the Heavenly Dao, I would probably be at a loss in this situation.

After such a long time, Lin Yu had long sensed the hidden problems behind the Hongmeng System.

That means the Hongmeng System might not have only one host!

Of course, so far, this is just Lin Yu's conjecture and has not been confirmed by him.

However, through the various experiences of this journey during the Dao Qi era, especially the many unusual reactions of the Hongmeng System, Lin Yu realized that his conjecture might actually be true.

The Hongmeng System also existed during the Dao Qi era, but it did not have the name Primordial Hall.

Lin Yu had previously asked the black-robed high priest, but the priest had no recollection of the " Primordial Hall." This could only mean that the Hongmeng System in the Dao Qi era was not centered around the Primordial Hall.

Otherwise, if the Hongmeng System of the two eras were the same, then the Hongmeng System owners in the Dao Qi era should be similar to me, increasing the fame value of the Primordial Hall by publishing rankings to improve their own level.

However, during the Dao Qi era, the Primordial Hall was not a sect at all.

Therefore, Lin Yu guessed that even if there were owners of the Hongmeng System in the Dao Qi era, their way of using it would definitely be completely different from his own back then!

"Lord of the Palace, do you see the ground moving?" Just then, He Buxian's trembling voice rang in Lin Yu's ears.

He Buxian's words immediately brought Lin Yu back to his senses.

After everything that had just happened, He Buxian was exhausted, and Lin Yu's own spiritual power was completely sealed.

Fortunately, Lin Yu possessed great physical strength. If he wanted to, he could force his way up the rock face using only his physical strength.

However, while he could do this, He Buxian clearly did not have the same ability.

"The most urgent task is to find a way to get He Buxian out of here as well," Lin Yu thought to himself.

Reminded by He Buxian, he also noticed the ground.

The ground of the entire valley was a dark green, extremely obscure, and He Buxian only saw it by chance.

After He Buxian's reminder, Lin Yu deliberately looked down at the ground.

Compared to He Buxian, Lin Yu didn't need to rely on any external power; he directly used the elemental power of lightning to forcibly illuminate a small part of the land.

This photo was quite something; what I saw there was startling.

Of course, the shock was mainly felt by He Buxian; Lin Yu remained quite calm after seeing the scene.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!" He Buxian's body trembled violently.

At first, he only saw something moving on the ground below through the reflected light and was puzzled. But with Lin Yu's intervention, he suddenly realized that what he had just seen was not his imagination!

The ground is really moving!

Thinking about it carefully, he realized the dark green color on the ground was familiar; weren't those the small, dark green insects that had just crawled out from deep within the scales of that monster?

"Let's go!" Lin Yu naturally realized this as well, and picked up He Buxian with one hand and started running uphill.

At this moment, the mountain wall of the crack was almost vertical, but Lin Yu carried He Buxian upwards as if it were effortless, which was enough to show the strength of his own physical body.

In fact, Lin Yu had not slackened his cultivation even back in the Primordial Hall, precisely to deal with the current situation.

Lin Yu had no idea that he would encounter such a strange situation in the Dao Qi era, when he hadn't had the chance to do so in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms.

The large swarms of dark green insects are enough to prove that these insects are social animals.

The power of a single insect may be weak, but the combined power of tens of thousands of insects is unimaginable.

Based on what we just saw, these insects are very likely to be bloodthirsty. After sensing the life force on Lin Yu and He Buxian, it goes without saying what those dark green insects will do.

"Those monsters might have been captured into the rift in the same state as He Buxian, becoming food for those dark green insects!" Lin Yu thought of a possibility.

Perhaps everything, from the very beginning, was a huge scam.
