The trust between Luo Beixi's junior fellow apprentices made Li Yan think of Li Wuyi at that moment.

If it were my senior brothers and sisters, they would have been able to carve out a way of escape for themselves before, and they would have done so without any complaints.

Li Yan took advantage of the other party's trust and easily captured Luo Beixi almost without a fight. This made Li Yan, who had always been scheming, feel a little guilty because he thought of his senior brothers, but the thought passed away in a flash.

Li Yan After a ray of Divine Sense penetrated "Tuban", he immediately used some Pill to recover the injuries on Luo Beixi's body to avoid bleeding to death!

Luo Beixi said that when he came over, he encountered many crossroads, which is why Li Yan did not choose to retreat, but forced a breakthrough with the golden-armored flame giant.

Li Yan has always believed in his own perception. Although he encountered many side roads along the way before, he always felt that the route he chose was probably better.

Give him a feeling that if he keeps walking like this, he can either find the exit here, or he can finally find the location of "Strength Soul Gu".

So Luo Beixi said that there were forks in the direction he was coming from. Li Yan felt that it was better to rely on his own perception. If the other party went wrong, he might be able to go right!

Although the golden-armored flame giant on the opposite side has reached Early Body Integration Realm's peak strength with the help of the golden light here, Li Yan still believes that he can get past it.

Even if he is willing, he can defeat this golden-armored flame giant with all his means.

Sure enough, Li Yan succeeded in repelling the opponent in the end, but Li Yan did not choose to defeat the flame giant because he was not like Luo Beixi, who just encountered this golden armored flame giant.

Li Yan has guessed that the flame giant is formed by the formation here. If he defeats the opponent, the situation may be the same as before, and there will be no more pursuit behind him.

But it is more likely that if there are too many deaths, the opponents will regroup and appear. Then the Fire Giants that I killed at the beginning may all merge in. The strength of the Fire Giants at that time may not be what it is now.

It is even possible to reach Integrated Body Middle Stage, or in the later stages. Wouldn't that mean you have found a more powerful enemy for yourself?

Li Yan doesn't understand the rules for forming a flame giant here. He still wants to find an exit from here first, or find the location of "Strength Soul Gu". Why bother fighting a restriction if he stays here by himself?

If he loses, he will not end well. If he wins, the opponent will just collapse. As long as the formation continues to operate, the flame giant may appear again in the next breath, and he is simply wasting his life...

Sensing the roar of the golden-armored flame giant behind him, Li Yan moved forward quickly. He did not immediately attack Luo Beixi. Soul Search was still in danger. He wanted to leave here first before talking.

Li Yan still has a question in his mind, that is, how does Luo Beixi prepare two Jade Slips at all times? But now he has no time to explore what content is burned into the two Jade Slips?

After burning the incense, Li Yan was still in the Golden Light Cave, but he had turned into different forks eight times.

"It seems that I was lucky and did not enter the place where Luo Beixi was involved!"

Although Li Yan did not find the exit, he did not enter the death door where Luo Beixi was involved. This he can still be sure of.

Luo Beixi previously needed to escape while blocking the golden-armored flame giant, but because he was very successful in concealing himself, his progress has been relatively smooth.

In addition to the continuous consumption of mana to maintain the body from being torn apart by the golden light, the speed of travel is not slow.

In one stick of incense, if he was really unlucky, he would have already broken into the death door where Luo Beixi was involved. Currently, except for the golden armored flame giant, there are no other attacks.

In fact, this statement is not completely correct. These ubiquitous golden lights are an extremely powerful attack. If one's cultivation level was weaker, it would have been cut into blood and mud!

During this period of time, Li Yan was also thinking about the Golden Armored Fire Giant. The toughness of the opponent's body had always been inconsistent with its combat power.

The performance of the flame giant Early Body Integration Realm encountered later was even more obvious. At that time, Li Yan had already determined that it was not a trap set by Luo Beixi. He was not afraid of being spied on by the other party in secret and had already used his true power.

The toughness of the flame giant's body has exceeded that of monk Body Integration Realm. You could say that he was born from a restriction, but Li Yan felt a sense of substance.

Therefore, Li Yan feels more like the clone of a powerful monk. This means how powerful the monk's true self is. When Li Yan had this idea, he was even shocked.

If this is the case, then as long as the opponent's body appears, killing yourself is as simple as blowing a breath.

But soon, Li Yan felt that maybe his judgment was wrong. Why would such a powerful monk put so many clones of himself in a formation?

Is it to protect him from practicing in seclusion? But even if the original deity enters deep seclusion, he will still have a mental connection with his clone.

If he breaks in like this and the other party's Body Integration Realm clone cannot be found, this is a huge potential threat to a monk practicing in seclusion.

Even if it were him, he would have to wake up and deal with the hidden enemies, otherwise he would no longer be able to practice with peace of mind.

This is also the reason why many powerful people leave a clone outside when they are in long-term or deep retreat, that is, they can forcefully awaken their true self in an emergency!

But now, a lot of time has passed, but he has not received any fatal blow, which makes Li Yan's guess shaken again, and the tension is relaxed a little...

Li Yan, which turned into golden light, suddenly stopped. The fork in the road he chose did not have a new fork in front, but had already reached the end. The golden light there continued to surge, but there was no way forward.

"Isn't this another death door?"

Li Yan stopped and looked carefully. He was still some distance away from the front. At this time, he turned into Wang Xing again.

Because that Ye Yuhong was probably involved here, Li Yan wanted to use the previous method again after encountering him, Li Yan Divine Sense probed forward, and soon his Divine Sense was bounced back.

"Huh? There's no teleportation feeling like inhalation!"

Li Yan Divine Sense The golden light passed through there. At the end of the cave, there was no stone wall. Even though the golden light was constantly emitting in the void, it also had no power of teleportation.

Li Yan's first feeling after exploring was that this was not the place he originally escaped from, but Li Yan was not sure that the door behind it was not the door of death. It could also be the door of life, which was the exit he had been looking for.

Li Yan did not approach immediately. His mind moved, and immediately two Gu worms appeared. They were still wrapped in his magic power and were quietly sent forward.

At the same time, Li Yan has raised his alert to the highest level. The anonymity of his exploration is completely different from that of himself. The most likely result is to attract the golden-armored flame giant.

This thing has never appeared again after losing its perception of itself, but Li Yan knows that as long as there is a slight abnormality here, the golden armored flame giant will most likely appear here instantly and attack him immediately!

Li Yan moved very slowly, wrapping the two Gu worms and getting closer to the bottom of the hole. Finally, when he was almost near the bottom of the hole, Li Yan placed one of the black-armored Gu worms on the ground.

However, the mana shield that protected it did not dare to be removed, lest it be instantly strangled by the golden light. Two Gu insects flew at an extremely slow speed, one slowly flew into the golden light at the bottom of the cave, and the other crawled towards the ground!

Soon Li Yan heard the feedback from two Gu insects. They hit a layer of light mask and could no longer move forward!

"Not the kind of death door I experienced!"

Li Yan felt happy. In this case, the two Gu insects were not teleported away, so it most likely means that there may be an exit behind the cave wall in front!

However, Li Yan did not give up, and once again continued to activate the two Gu worms, making them try to swim around in the golden light at the bottom of the cave.

In the end, nothing happened, nor did it attract the attention of the golden-armored flame giant. After dozens of breaths, Li Yan summoned the two Gu insects back.

Then he quietly approached the front. When he reached the place where the two Gu insects could not move forward, Li Yan quickly returned to a transparent body state from a golden light.

After recovering, he was nailed there like a puppet. All his senses were instantly opened. In the dead silence, except for the golden light surging everywhere, Li Yan seemed to have left here long ago.

Hundreds of breaths passed, and Li Yan confirmed that the golden-armored flame giant was not alarmed. Then he slowly raised his arm, and after a little bit of golden light penetrated it, he gently pressed it forward.

Then, he felt as if he had touched a hard membrane on his palm.

"There is no attack, no suction involved, this is most likely the exit location..."

Li Yan relied on the feeling of the palm of his hand to quickly judge in his mind that the exit position of the general formation was relatively gentle inside, while defense and attack were restricted outside. The inside was loose and the outside was tight.

But this is not an absolute thing, it is just a situation that will occur with a high probability. Some formations contain extremely vicious attacks both inside and outside the exit...

Li Yan With a thought, "Heaven-Stealing Kerchief" appeared in his hand. He had no good solution at this time. Although his formation skills were constantly improving as his cultivation level improved.

But it is always lower than that of formation mages with the same level of cultivation. What's more, even if Li Yan thinks he can break the formation now, he can't try it.

Whether it is using formations to break formations or using compass to fix stars, there will be some movement. What he has to do now is to leave quietly!

"Prison Breaker" technique is the most reliable, but it is also the method that causes the most noise among all the methods to break the formation. Li Yan decided to use "Heaven-Stealing Kerchief" to see if it is feasible?

After all, this thing has always broken through the formation, and it is basically silent. Although the danger it encounters is getting bigger and bigger, its speed is getting slower and slower, Li Yan has to Qi Ingestion in his heart, this thing is basically unfavorable...

Li Yan stood there like a dead thing, and time seemed to slow down extremely. The endless golden light surged here, making people even more confused about time!

At a certain moment, Li Yan felt that the area covering "Heaven-Stealing Kerchief" was empty. With a quick scan of his Divine Sense, he found an illusory pinhole-sized hole there.

Divine Sense reached in instantly, and then his Divine Sense passed through it, and what entered Divine Sense was a bright golden light.

"Or the Golden Light Cave? A series of nested formations!"

Li Yan, who was standing at the bottom of the cave at this end, frowned. He did not expect that outside the formation, there was still golden light, which gave him an endless feeling...

Could it be that he didn't break away from the formation? But the next moment, Li Yan noticed something different. Although the expression on his face remained unchanged, his body entered the illusory hole in an instant.

The moment his body passed through it, Li Yan picked up "Heaven-Stealing Kerchief" and put it back. This thing once again demonstrated its strange power, but Li Yan had no time to think about it.

Li Yan When the condensed body appeared again, he was already standing on the ground, but there was still a transparent figure. He looked around again.

After Divine Sense's investigation just now, although he had made a preliminary judgment about this place, further investigation was needed at this time, and he could not move forward rashly.

Although there is still a lot of golden light here, it is no longer so dazzling. Instead, it is filled with a soft golden color, allowing people to see very far with just one pair of eyes.

That's not all. There is no sharpness in those golden lights anymore. When Divine Sense walks through it, there is no cutting meaning anymore. It is quite easy to move through.

Li Yan Divine Sense Just scanned it before and found that Divine Sense had flown five or six thousand miles in an instant and was no longer affected by anything.

This place is no longer a narrow and curved cave, the space is very wide, which makes Li Yan feel that he should find an exit to trap his formation.

There is a small rotating golden cloud behind Li Yan. In this golden space, it still looks a bit conspicuous. That is where Li Yan came from just now.

This place is not the place where Li Yan was first teleported. He has never been there before. Li Yan just wanted to further explore the situation here, and his expression suddenly changed on his blank face.

"You actually have the means to break through the formation quietly, and the concealment technique is so powerful, but you are just a person who hides his head and keeps his tail. What other means do you have for someone to see?"

A muffled thunderous sound suddenly sounded on the side of Li Yan.

When Li Yan quickly turned his head to look, a tall figure like a mountain had appeared there. The moment the tall figure appeared, Li Yan felt the surrounding ground shake.

He Divine Sense scanned it and found that although the surrounding scene had not changed, the golden clouds that had been spinning behind him just now were gone.

"Trapped!"

Li Yan's heart sank. He had just escaped from one formation, and now he was trapped by another formation.

The figure that appeared like a mountain looked exactly the same as the golden-armored flame giant that we had encountered previously, judging from its body shape and facial features.

It's just that now he has turned into a giant in golden armor, and there is no longer any flame coming out of his body. When talking to Li Yan, a piece of golden light is shooting out of his eyes, and it is no longer the flame.

He held a golden giant sword in his hand, but what shocked Li Yan even more was that the aura exuding from the golden armored giant had already reached the level of Integrated Body Late Stage.

"Could this be the opponent's true form?"

Li Yan Before, after seeing the golden-armored flame giant chasing Luobei, he had related speculations. However, the result of his guess at that time was that the flame giant should still be formed by a formation.

Because they need to deal with several of them being involved at the same time, the formation needs to disperse the power and turn it into several flame giants.

And once the formation only produces one flame giant, Li Yan thought at that time that it might be Integrated Body Middle Stage's strength, and the possibility in the later stage is very small.

In that way, if he encounters someone, he will still have some ability to protect himself, but now a strong person like Integrated Body Late Stage appears, which is beyond Li Yan's judgment.

He felt that his guess was wrong. Could it be that he was really the clone or incarnation of the monk? However, Li Yan also felt that it was not the case. Perhaps the golden armored giant in front of him was the result of the formation restriction.

The cultivation level of the main body is only a small level higher than that of the clone. Although this situation occurs, it is rare. Nine times out of ten, it is difficult for the clone to cultivate to this point, and then it may soon become a matter of priority...

Li Yan did not answer the flame giant's words, but quickly searched around. He wanted to see if there was anyone else in the secret, Divine Sense, who was not inferior to the Body Integration Realm monk?

Li Yan At this moment, sweat is oozing out from his back. He is most afraid that all the flame giants are clones or incarnations, and their true bodies will appear at any time, so he will definitely die here today!

"This person has never appeared before. Is it because he can't find me, or is he just playing cat and mouse..."

Li Yan quickly sensed the golden light on the opponent's body, and at the same time watched the agility in the golden light giant's eyes!
