The space where He Buxian, the Fallen Black Phoenix, and Feng Changge are currently located is clearly a space deliberately set up by the Water Drop People, and it is not a place that can be easily left.
Just like now, they have almost finished off those hounding beasts and dark green insects, but Sang Er is still trapped inside the barrier.
Moreover, because they had previously consumed a large amount of energy, even if the three of them combined their remaining strength, they would still be unable to break through the outermost barrier.
Moreover, the three of them were located on the inner side of the barrier, where its power was strongest, rather than on the outer side.
"I've just examined these four seals. They're ingeniously designed; breaking one will affect the whole situation. We can't leave by breaking just one seal; we need to break all four to escape successfully."
He Buxian sounded somewhat heavy-hearted when he said this.
My own power is now completely exhausted, and although Feng Changge and the Fallen Black Phoenix still have a little power left, it is estimated that there is not much left.
In short, they currently have absolutely no power to break the seal.
Thinking about this made He Buxian feel worried.
If I hadn't spoken up to stop them, the Fallen Black Phoenix and Feng Changge would probably have started arguing again.
The fact that the three of them continued arguing when they were already so weak only shows that Feng Changge really lacked a sense of the bigger picture.
Thinking that the Palace Master still needed the power of Feng Changge, and that he himself had no way to bring Feng Changge to Lin Yu's side, He Buxian felt somewhat guilty.
"If I can't even do such a simple job well, what else can I possibly accomplish?!" He Buxian thought angrily.
The three of them fell silent again.
After about three breaths, Feng Changge finally spoke, this time addressing the Fallen Black Phoenix.
"Back when I was still in the Phoenix Ancestral Sea, the High Priest had already told me about you."
"He said you were already capable of breaking all the seals in our clan back then, making you the most gifted member of our ancient Phoenix clan. But it was precisely because of this that you were able to break the seals protecting our clan..."
"What exactly are you trying to say?!" Before Feng Changge could finish speaking, the Fallen Black Phoenix's sharp gaze had already fallen on him, looking icy cold.
If looks could kill, the Fallen Black Phoenix would probably have already killed Feng Changge by now.
Feng Changge seemed to realize that his words had gone a bit too far, and silently withdrew his gaze before saying, "It's nothing. Isn't breaking seals your specialty?"
"You managed to break our protective seal back then, so what's a single Water Droplet Man's seal compared to that?"
"If you can use the same skills you had back then, let alone these four seals, I don't think even forty seals would be a problem for you."
When Feng Changge said this, he did not look at the Fallen Black Phoenix.
The Fallen Black Phoenix's expression was uncertain. These words certainly didn't sound like good news, but when Feng Changge said them, his tone wasn't as confident as usual; instead, it sounded somewhat dejected.
The Fallen Black Phoenix hesitated for a moment before realizing what was happening.
The reason Feng Changge said this was actually because he trusted the words of the black-robed high priest.
Besides that, there was also a hint of confidence in his own abilities.
This trust left the Fallen Black Phoenix somewhat bewildered. He had always thought that Feng Changge disliked him intensely, to the point of wanting to kill him.
But now, looking at Feng Changge's gaze towards him, it seemed more like pity and grievance than hatred.
"Why don't you just break them apart? That way we can get out of there," Feng Changge said defiantly.
Only at this moment does he truly resemble a child.
Hearing Feng Changge's self-righteous words, He Buxian, who was sitting to the side, couldn't help but chuckle.
This kid is way too naive!
But I don't know if this kid is naive or something else, to say something like that.
The Fallen Black Phoenix shook his head helplessly. After a moment, he finally spoke, "As you know, that was a long time ago. And when I broke the Phoenix Clan's protective seal, my power was at its peak."
"We've already had two-thirds of our power drained the moment we entered this wretched place. Our bodies are practically drained dry. Where do we have any strength left?"
"So you're saying everyone's like you? Releasing the primordial fire doesn't require any effort?"
"To be honest, after releasing the primordial fire, I've almost exhausted my power. I simply don't have any extra strength left to break this barrier."
The Fallen Dark Phoenix spoke these words with a sense of helplessness.
For a demon beast like him, age is an extremely vague and ethereal concept.
As a demon beast, it's hard for it to care about age.
But it wasn't until Feng Changge brought it up today that he realized he had truly grown old.
He Buxian looked at Feng Changge, who was sulking, and felt a mix of emotions.
However, he was unaware of the intricacies of the ancient phoenix clan. Nevertheless, He Buxian could roughly discern that Fengchang Pavilion had placed all its hopes on the fallen black phoenix.
In He Buxian's eyes, Feng Changge is now a complete airhead, a typical example of someone who is simple-minded and clueless.
"I'm telling you, little phoenix, it's time to use your brain. Your physical strength is decreasing little by little. Are we made of steel and iron? Won't our physical strength improve?"
"This space has created a magnetic field, and this magnetic field suppresses cultivators in every way. You are suppressed, and of course, the Fallen Black Phoenix and I are also suppressed. You haven't forgotten that we both lost our power, have you?"
"We should be thankful that we're still above ground. Otherwise, if we had accidentally fallen below ground, who knows how much our power would have been suppressed. But maybe then we wouldn't have to experience the discomfort of suppressed power."
When He Buxian said this, he seemed to have given up entirely, never expecting that they would fall at this final step.
Even now, He Buxian can still clearly feel that his strength is gradually weakening.
Although the spiritual energy has been completely exhausted, there is still life energy remaining.
I never imagined this barrier would be so sinister; it even absorbs other people's life energy. It's incredibly powerful.
That water droplet person is really strong.
