C1067 Second Level
It took Yang Xuan almost half an hour to fully recover the true qi in his body.
"If you leave now, I will never have any thoughts about you."
Yang Xuan said to Gu Zhenghai with a smile.
"Unless you drive me away."
Gu Zhenghai said without hesitation, "Otherwise, there will be a sea of fire and a sea of fire ahead. If I, Gu Zhenghai, frown a little, I am not a human. Now, you are going to save your friend, and I am going to save my leader. This does not conflict with you."
Gu Zhenghai had a determined look on his face.
He could understand what Yang Xuan meant just now. He was telling him that the first stage was already so difficult. He did not know what kind of danger was hidden in the lower two levels.
Anyway, he couldn't help much, so there was no need for him to continue taking risks with him. Moreover, he had obtained another cultivation technique. If he left now, his future would be bright.
Gu Zhenghai wasn't an idiot. He understood these principles in his heart, but the belief and conscience in his heart wouldn't allow him to do so.
Yang Xuan smiled at him and didn't say anything else, because he knew that under such circumstances, people like Gu Zhenghai would never choose to leave no matter what.
"If we can return alive this time, we must find a place to have a good drink."
Yang Xuan said with a smile.
Gu Zhenghai was stunned. After he realized what Yang Xuan meant, he felt flattered at first, but then he suddenly understood what Yang Xuan meant. He felt his nose ache and his eyes turned red.
"Okay, then let's talk about it first. I'll treat you to this wine, and you must drink it!"
Gu Zhenghai's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said firmly.
He could understand what Yang Xuan meant just now. He was telling him that he would encounter many dangers in the future, but he had to protect himself well and return alive.
Although Gu Zhenghai had not been with Yang Xuan for a long time, in this short period of time, he had already regarded Yang Xuan as the second person in the world who was worth his life apart from the green peonies.
He always felt that Yang Xuan had a special charisma.
It was a cultivation base that had reached an unimaginable level, but he did not put on airs at all.
Ever since Gu Zhenghai had met Yang Xuan, he had never felt Yang Xuan treat him as a servant. It was more of an equal respect.
Most people in this world would feel inferior when they were at the bottom of the valley, and they would act as bossy when they were at the top.
Gu Zhenghai had been in the martial arts world for a few years, and he had seen many so-called "Big Brother" figures.
No matter what personality they had or what they liked, they all shared a common point, which was that they were more polite to those who stood above them, or those who benefited from them.
However, they shouted at the people below them arrogantly, as if these people who had lower status than them were born lower than them.
Yang Xuan was definitely the strongest person Gu Zhenghai had ever seen in his life. Before this, he had seen many "experts," and felt that those people were already existences like the ceiling.
However, when he saw Yang Xuan and the monk fighting just now, he knew that the so-called 'ceiling' that he had seen before was not even an ant in front of an expert like Yang Xuan.
However, not only was Yang Xuan powerful, he was even more polite and approachable than all the "big brothers" he had seen.
Gu Zhenghai felt that it was worth it to know someone like Yang Xuan in his life, even if he had never returned from this trip!
"Are you ready?"
Yang Xuan took a deep breath and smiled at Gu Zhenghai. "If you are ready, let's continue this game of adventure."
Gu Zhenghai clenched his fists and nodded. "Yes, I am. Brother Yang, what do you need me to do later?"
Yang Xuan shook his head and said, "I don't know what's down there yet. Let's act according to the situation later."
Gu Zhenghai nodded and walked to the small door of the stone house. He slowly turned the mechanism.
With a rumbling sound, the small door slowly opened, and a flight of stairs leading to the bottom appeared in front of him.
Looking down from the top, this flight of stairs seemed to be bottomless, and the bottom was pitch black, as if it was the entrance to hell.
"Follow me closely, don't get lost."
Yang Xuan took a deep breath and walked down the staircase.
As soon as the two of them walked into the stairs, the stone door behind them suddenly closed.
It was pitch black all around them. They couldn't even see their own fingers.
"Follow me closely."
Yang Xuan reminded again, then started walking down the stairs.
Gu Zhenghai wanted to turn on the light on his phone, but Yang Xuan stopped him.
No one knew what was going to happen next. Before figuring out the situation, it was best not to do anything unnecessary.
The flight of stairs was very long. Gu Zhenghai followed behind and counted. The two of them walked for a total of 109 steps before they finally reached the flat ground.
It was pitch black all around, and they could not even see their fingers in front of them.
Yang Xuan stood where he was and did not move. Instead, he held his breath and focused his mind. Slowly, he released his true qi to sense the Qi in the surroundings.
However, after he used his Qi to search this place for a while, he didn't sense any living Qi.
Gu Zhenghai followed closely behind Yang Xuan. He did not make a sound, and did not even dare to breathe loudly.
He knew that it was best not to cause trouble for Brother Yang if he couldn't help him.
What was going on?
Yang Xuan frowned slightly. He had already released his Qi three times in a row to sense his surroundings, but he still couldn't detect any living creature's Qi.
With Yang Xuan's cultivation base, the Qi he released could accurately detect even a mosquito.
If there was someone who could make Yang Xuan unable to detect his Qi when he released his Qi, then this person's cultivation base would be at least five times higher than Yang Xuan's.
In this world, those who had a cultivation base five times higher than Yang Xuan's could no longer be described as a phoenix feather or a phoenix feather or a qilin horn. This kind of situation probably did not exist at all.
"Turn on the flashlight and take a look."
In the end, Yang Xuan still chose to let Gu Zhenghai turn on the flashlight to take a look.
However, just as Gu Zhenghai turned on the flashlight on his phone, there was a sound of a whoosh, and the surroundings suddenly lit up.
Only then did Yang Xuan and Gu Zhenghai realize that they were in a stone house that was shaped like an octagonal shape. The area was also much bigger than the floor of Monk Wen Zui.
This octagonal stone house was about the size of four basketball courts and was seven to eight meters tall. Other than the weird shape of the house, the other parts of the house were also full of weirdness.
The four braziers that lit up the octagonal stone house were in four different directions.
Not to mention how these four braziers spontaneously lit up, the four flames that lit up were not the light yellow color of ordinary flames. Instead, it was a very strange dark green color!2
