Avenue Stowaway

Chapter 172 Dangerous Corridor

The situation suddenly turned into a confrontation between Kong Fang and Huangfu Qi, who were both wearing silver guards.

Seeing these five people, Kong Fang slowly relaxed, but Huangfu Qi and the other five did not dare to relax at all. The five of them stared at Kong Fang vigilantly. If Kong Fang made any unusual movements, the five of them would definitely launch a crazy attack immediately.

Kong Fang also understood this in his heart, so he did not move, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"I didn't expect to meet you here." Kong Fang said with a wry smile.

Hearing Kong Fang's voice, Huangfu Qi and the other five were stunned for a moment, and looked at Kong Fang in silver armor with confusion. They had some impression of this voice, but they had never seen him dressed like this.

"It sounds like the voice of the cultivator we met outside Qingtian Tomb." Ye Qingli looked at the others in surprise and said uncertainly.

"It's him." Qin Long gritted his teeth. Qin Long had lost all face in Kong Fang's hands, so he had a very deep impression of Kong Fang's voice.

Seeing that the five people were looking at him in confusion, Kong Fang finally relaxed completely. The armor on his face opened up, and Huangfu Qi and others saw Kong Fang's face.

"It's really you." Huangfu Qi said in surprise. Then Huangfu Qi looked up and down at the silver guard on Kong Fang's body and said in surprise: "I didn't expect that you actually have such precious full body armor."

Qin Long, Wan Xianglin, Ye Qingli, and Lu Zhu also looked at the silver guard on Kong Fang, with a little envy in their eyes. Full body armor is extremely difficult to refine, so it is extremely rare and precious.

Kong Fangneng possessed extremely precious full body armor, which surprised Huangfu Qi and others.

But Huangfu Qi and others didn't know that compared with the Silver Guards, there was not much difference between the full body armor and the tattered ones.

The armor on Kong Fang's head turned into a strange stream of water, which directly merged into the armor on his shoulders. Kong Fang's head was exposed.

Huangfu Qi and the others were shocked when they saw this scene. Although they did not have full body armor, they still had some understanding of full body armor. But full body armor did not seem to have the ability to turn into water, right?

"How did you end up here? Were you also teleported here by the formation when you entered the ruins to explore?" Kong Fang asked curiously.

Although Kong Fang, Huangfu Qi and others had some unpleasantness outside Qingtian Tomb, they were not enemies. On the contrary, because of their previous acquaintance, everyone was somewhat familiar with each other, so they did not need to be on guard all the time like facing strangers.

Of course, Huangfu Qi and others did not think that Kong Fang alone could threaten the five of them.

Hearing Kong Fang's words, Huangfu Qi and the other five showed a helpless expression on their faces. Huangfu Qi shook his head and sighed, "We don't have your good luck. We were teleported into the ruins as soon as we entered Qingtian Tomb. When we were looking for a way to leave the ruins, we were accidentally teleported here by the formation. We have been trapped here for nearly two months."

Ye Qingli, Lu Zhu, Qin Long and Wan Xianglin all had bitter looks on their faces. They were not much later than Kong Fang when they entered the Qingtian Tomb, but the results were completely different. Kong Fang was teleported outside the ruins, while they were unlucky enough to be teleported directly into the ruins.

In the end, not only did he fail to get out of the ruins, but he was teleported again. And then he was directly trapped here.

Kong Fang's mouth twitched. Huangfu Qi and the other five thought he was lucky. Little did they know that it was Huangfu Qi and the other five who were lucky. If these five people had been teleported into that body of water with him, no one would have survived. Although the ruins were also an extremely dangerous place, at least these people were still alive.

What made Kong Fang speechless was that he had always wanted to enter the ruins, but was teleported to a place far away from the ruins. Huangfu Qi and others wanted to go to other areas outside the ruins, but were teleported directly into the ruins.

Suddenly, Kong Fang was startled, looked at Huangfu Qilian and asked, "You said you have been trapped here for nearly two months?"

Huangfu Qi and the other five looked at Kong Fang in astonishment, their hearts were a little confused, Kong Fang's reaction was too slow. They had been talking for a long time, but Kong Fang just reacted.

Kong Fang just recalled the scene of encountering the giant beast and temporarily ignored Huangfu Qi's words.

After Huangfu Qi nodded in acknowledgment, Kong Fang immediately looked around.

Kong Fang found that they should be in a certain palace, and the place where they stood was a small room, only four or five feet in size. The room was surrounded by green walls, and there was green light flowing on the walls. Obviously, there was a complete formation in operation. Such walls were not something Kong Fang and his team could destroy.

This room has only one exit, which is behind Huangfu Qi and the others. This is a corridor that is less than two feet wide, but extremely long. Kong Fang roughly calculated that this corridor is at least four or five hundred feet long.

At the end of the corridor, there was a layer of green light, and it was impossible to see what was behind the green light.

Huangfu Qi and his five companions had been trapped here for nearly two months, but there was no danger in this room. Kong Fang carefully observed the corridor, but after a while he found nothing.

"I don't know who built the Qingtian Tomb, but that person's attainments in formations are definitely terrifyingly high. Formations are clearly set up in some places, but nothing can be seen from the outside." Kong Fang shook his head and gave up. Instead of wasting time observing, it would be better to ask Huangfu Qi and others who had been teleported in a long time ago.

Huangfu Qi and his four companions have been trapped here for nearly two months, and they must have figured out some of the situation.

Seeing Kong Fang's puzzled look, Huangfu Qi took the initiative to introduce before Kong Fang asked: "We are trapped here, in fact, it is all because of this corridor."

Huangfu Qi turned around and pointed at the corridor that was less than two meters wide and said to Kong Fang who was walking beside him: "Don't be fooled by the fact that this corridor is extremely peaceful now and seems to be safe. Once you walk in, countless attacks will immediately appear in this corridor, and the frequency of attacks is many times higher than that in the ruins. And the farther you walk, the more terrible the attacks in the corridor will be."

Huangfu Qi smiled bitterly, "We could only advance 70 to 80 feet each time, and then we had to go back the same way. We even used our life-saving items to try to force our way through, but the power in the life-saving items could only allow us to advance 3 to 4 feet more, and we were still a long way from the layer of green light."

Ye Qingli, Lu Zhu, Qin Long, and Wan Xianglin also fell silent. This place is simply a cage. Once you enter, you can never get out.

Kong Fang keenly grasped the doubts in Huangfu Qi's words. He couldn't help but ask Huangfu Qi beside him: "What did you mean by returning the same way just now? Don't you think you won't be attacked when you go back?"

Huangfu Qi was stunned for a moment, then patted his head in annoyance, "We have come up with a lot of ideas in the past two months. We have been discussing and trying every day, and it has become a subconscious behavior. I forgot that you just came here. I am really sorry."

Huangfu Qi apologized and then explained carefully: "The attacks in this corridor do not appear randomly. They only appear when you walk into the wrong position and trigger the formation. If you do not trigger the formation, you can pass through this corridor safely."

After hearing what Huangfu Qi said, Kong Fang became more confused. If this was the case, Huangfu Qi and his team would have found a safe route after a few more attempts. It was impossible for them to be trapped for two months.

Huangfu Qi shook his head and continued, "It's good news for us that there is a safe route in this corridor. It's also our only hope to escape. However, this safe route changes every half an hour, and there is no regular pattern at all. Otherwise, we would have gotten through it long ago."

At this time, Ye Qingli suddenly said: "Brother, look, the formation in the corridor is about to change again."

Huangfu Qi and Kong Fang both turned their heads to look towards the corridor.

Suddenly, a faint green light covered the corridor, which was less than two meters wide. The green light was dense and flowing like water vapor. However, this situation only lasted for a few breaths before the green light disappeared again.

"The route we explored before is useless again." Huangfu Qi couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.

"Junior Brother Wan, I hope you have better luck." Huangfu Qi nodded to Wan Xianglin.

The others also looked at Wan Xianglin and wished him good luck.

Kong Fang stood aside and watched. He didn't quite understand the situation here yet, so he decided to wait and see.

Wan Xianglin took a deep breath and suddenly walked into the corridor.

As soon as he stepped into the corridor, a beam of fire suddenly appeared from under Wan Xianglin's feet and wrapped around Wan Xianglin at an extremely fast speed.

Wan Xianglin quickly rushed forward, and pushed his hands on the ground, ready to turn over, but when Wan Xianglin's palms pressed on the ground, three golden lights suddenly appeared in the space in front of Wan Xianglin. These three golden lights contained extremely terrifying power, and formed a "品" shape to attack Wan Xianglin who was upside down.

Unable to move forward, Wan Xianglin could only dodge to the left. Wan Xianglin rolled over and landed on the ground, half squatting. Just as Wan Xianglin was about to exert force to move forward, a large blue net suddenly appeared in front of him. This was a large net formed by pure water power. If he was caught in this net, no one knew what would happen.

This net instantly covered a space of ten feet in size. It was extremely difficult for Wan Xianglin to dodge left or right. Moreover, the big net quickly enveloped Wan Xianglin, leaving him no chance to dodge.

Kong Fang, the bystander, was horrified. In just one or two breaths, Wan Xianglin had already encountered three attacks. Huangfu Qi had said before that the deeper into the corridor, the more terrible the attacks would be. Kong Fang finally understood why the safe route changed once every half an hour, that is, once an hour. In such a long time, Huangfu Qi and other peak-level cultivators could not explore the corridor. It was lucky to be alive with such a high frequency of attacks. It was too difficult to find a safe route.

In a hurry, Wan Xianglin could only dodge backwards, and Wan Xianglin also had to pay attention to the next attack. Every time he landed, he might encounter danger. This was the most profound experience Wan Xianglin and his team had in the past two months.

Wan Xianglin took two steps back and was about to dodge the impending danger again when suddenly, he controlled his body and stood still.

Kong Fang watched in amazement and found that after Wan Xianglin took two steps back, there were no new attacks in the corridor, and the big net formed by pure water power also disappeared into the void.

Huangfu Qi and the other three people around Kong Fang all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally, we found a safe place to stay." Huangfu Qi nodded slightly, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

Kong Fang's heart sank gradually. To cross this corridor, which was four or five hundred feet long, within an hour was much more difficult than he had initially imagined.
