290 The Bridge of Helplessness
In the ancient dimension.
Gu Mingzhou walked back and forth around the light cocoon.
“Even you can’t break it?” He said in disappointment.
He had already used all his strength to try using the spear, but unfortunately, he couldn’t even hurt the hair of the light cocoon. He couldn’t break it at all. Now, if Master Qin couldn’t break it, no one around Gu Mingzhou could help.
“It’s just a simple seal. If it was in the past, I could easily break it with a breath. Now that I’m seriously injured, and my cultivation has declined, I can’t do anything about it.” Master Qin explained as his palm-sized body circled the huge light cocoon.
“That’s not right. This light cocoon is so weak. Don’t you have a spiritual sense in your body? Let him out, and we’ll be able to break it immediately!”
After circling the light cocoon a few times, Master Qin seemed to have discovered something. He flew back to Gu Mingzhou’s side and asked.
“The spiritual sense is imprisoned in the light cocoon.” Gu Mingzhou rolled his eyes at Master Qin and said, somewhat speechless.
If Jing Wudao could come out, he wouldn’t have to worry about breaking the light cocoon.
“That spiritual sense is imprisoned in the light cocoon? Hehe, interesting!” upon hearing this, Master Qin was overjoyed. Once again, he activated his palm-sized body and started to spin around the light cocoon.
“Aren’t you talking nonsense? If Brother Wudao weren’t injured, he wouldn’t have been imprisoned inside.” Gu Mingzhou was even more speechless. But before he could finish his sentence, he seemed to have caught on to something.
She quickly walked to the light cocoon and grabbed Master Qin, who was still spinning.
“Master Qin! Quickly help Brother Wudao heal his injuries. As long as he can recover, he might be able to break the seal by himself!”
“Aiyo, f*ck, let me go. Are you trying to kill Master Qin?” Master Qin’s tiny body immediately scurried around in Gu Mingzhou’s palm and he shouted in a panic.
“I’m sorry, I’m too excited. Quickly help heal Brother Wudao!” Gu Mingzhou quickly let go of Master Qin and apologized.
“What’s the rush? Let me observe first and see if this light cocoon can be penetrated!” Master Qin said unhappily. At the same time, he broke free from Gu Mingzhou’s restraints and flew up again, spinning around the cocoon of light.
“Master Qin, what are you doing? Hurry up and save him!” Gu Mingzhou said anxiously when he saw that Master Qin was only circling around the light cocoon and did not release the magical purple glow.
“Don’t worry. I’ll do it. But let me make this clear. I can’t guarantee that I can penetrate this thing!” Master Qin’s body, which was spinning around the light cocoon, instantly scattered down rays of purple light.
This time, it was not the void that was trembling but the huge light cocoon.
It was as if the surrounding spiritual energy was pouring in and the light cocoon was unable to withstand it. The entire cocoon began to shake, and it was getting more and more intense.
“Aiyo! There’s no need to be in such a hurry!” Master Qin was shocked when he saw this. As he shouted, he immediately shot away.
Gu Mingzhou didn’t know why Master Qin suddenly ran away. He was about to speak when his heart suddenly throbbed. He immediately swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue and instantly retreated tens of meters away.
The moment he retreated, the light cocoon that was shaking violently exploded.
Boom!
Although the sound wasn’t deafening, it was still quite harsh.
Light burst forth, and golden threads flowed.
A red figure emerged from the exploding light cocoon, holding a sharp sword and soaring into the clouds.
“Brother Wudao!” Gu Mingzhou immediately smiled and shouted in surprise.
“Gu Mingzhou, what are you doing here?” Jing Wudao jumped down from the sky.
“Do you still need to ask? If he’s not here, how can you come out?” without waiting for Gu Mingzhou’s reply, Master Qin, who had been running away in a hurry, flew back.
“It’s you? Did you give me that life force just now?” Jing Wudao looked at Master Qin with surprise on his face.
“Nonsense. Other than Master Qin, who else has such a skill?” Master Qin flew back to Gu Mingzhou’s shoulder and said arrogantly.
“So, you were the one who helped break the seal of Wu Ji sect outside the forest?” Jing Wudao immediately asked.
“I only did this because of Mingzhou. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered with you.” Master Qin was very arrogant as if he didn’t like Jing Wudao.
“Didn’t you just say that you were asking me for help?” Gu Mingzhou directly exposed Master Qin at an inappropriate time.
“No matter what, we should thank Senior for saving our lives. Please accept my bow!” Jing Wudao didn’t mind. Instead, he respectfully bowed to Master Qin, who was on Gu Mingzhou’s shoulder.
“Forget it! What senior? Just call me Master Qin!” Master Qin said shamelessly.
“You’re pushing it. If I didn’t use the instant talisman, I’m afraid you would have become a corpse by now!” Gu Mingzhou could not stand Master Qin’s arrogance and said ruthlessly.
“You little brat! You were the one who told me to speak less. Besides, wasn’t I sleeping when the incident happened? Do you know that venerable sovereigns…” Master Qin suddenly stopped before he could finish his sentence. He seemed to have recalled something.
“Do you think you can make venerable sovereigns bow down to you?” Gu Mingzhou instantly caught hold of something and took the opportunity to ridicule Master Qin.
“I can’t be bothered with you!” Master Qin gave in, which was a rare sight. He shrank into Gu Mingzhou’s neck and stopped talking.
Gu Mingzhou finally gained the upper hand and was prepared to continue mocking Master Qin.
“You used the instant talisman to escape from Shangguan Fei and the others?” Jing Wudao interrupted Gu Mingzhou, who was about to press on with his victory and asked.
“Yeah! I’ve traveled a thousand miles in an instant. They’re probably still wondering how I disappeared.” Gu Mingzhou did not know that Shangguan Fei had already know his position when he used the instant talisman.
He even forgot the instant talisman in his hand was also there. The original owner of the talisman, Wu Ji patriarvh, was also there.
“With Shangguan Fei’s knowledge, I’m afraid he can recognize that you’re using an instant talisman. Maybe they’re on their way now,” Jing Wudao turned around and looked behind him.
“It can’t be?” Gu Mingzhou immediately became a little nervous. His good mood from just now when he was fooling around with Master Qin instantly disappeared!
“I can even feel their presence getting closer. We have to leave this place as soon as possible!” Jing Wudao retracted his gaze and said. Without waiting for Gu Mingzhou to object, he reached out and pulled Gu Mingzhou up.
“Where are we going now?” Gu Mingzhou allowed Jing Wudao to carry him as he asked in confusion.
“Since we can’t get out for the time being, let’s just walk to the end. Let’s go to the bridge of helplessness!” Jing Wudao explained as he flew forward with Gu Mingzhou.
“The bridge of helplessness? You mean the second one?” Gu Mingzhou remembered Shangguan Fei’s explanation. The second catastrophe seemed to be the so-called bridge of helplessness.
“It’s right ahead!” Jing Wudao pointed forward and chuckled.
Gu Mingzhou quickly turned his head and looked ahead.
Less than 500 meters away from them, a huge black shadow loomed above the river that was filled with white fog!
