152: Weird force field
Centered around that mysterious and ancient bone sword, there was an extremely faint, almost imperceptible magnetic-field-like energy fluctuation.
If one didn't look closely, these subtle energy changes would be completely unnoticed.
A unique area seemed to form around the bone sword, with no traces of any pet beasts' activities to be seen.
This place was like a secluded vacuum zone, so quiet it instilled fear.
With just a quick glance, Li Wen could confidently determine that this seemingly insignificant ring of energy was by no means meaningless.
As someone who was always cautious, Li Wen naturally wouldn't rashly step into this unknown territory.
After careful consideration, Li Wen gestured for Qing Yan beside him to cast a spell, summoning a replica woven from Insect Silk.
This small Insect Silk replica, like a brave vanguard, advanced resolutely towards that mysterious vacuum zone.
The moment the small Insect Silk replica stepped into the vacuum zone, the terrifying scene of life force being rapidly stripped away, which was anticipated, did not occur.
Seeing this, Li Wen couldn't help but let out a slight sigh of relief, but he knew he couldn't let his guard down yet, as he still couldn't be 100% sure of the safety of this place.
Thus, Li Wen decided to continue observing patiently for a while longer.
Facts proved that his decision was incredibly wise and correct.
In the very next second, a jaw-dropping scene suddenly unfolded—the body of the Insect Silk replica, originally composed of soft Insect Silk, suddenly underwent severe deformation as if crushed by an immense force from beyond!
Its slender and fragile body was instantly flattened into a paper-thin sheet, a truly gruesome sight.
Qing Yan, perched on his shoulder, trembled slightly at this moment, evidently suffering some soul damage due to the demise of the Insect Silk replica.
This sudden situation startled Li Wen, and he quickly turned his gaze to Qing Yan's panel, eager to confirm if he was alright.
After a careful check, Li Wen let out a slight sigh of relief; fortunately, Qing Yan showed no abnormal signs for now.
However, what had just happened made him dare not be careless.
After observing and analyzing the Insect Silk replica, Li Wen discovered that the so-called “energy field” existing in this mysterious area was actually a powerful gravity field.
This gravity field seemed capable of automatically adjusting and applying gravitational pressure based on the Energy Value of the entrant.
Thus, at first glance, this place didn't seem like a dangerous, crisis-ridden area, but rather a somewhat peculiar place of inheritance.
But the problem was that Li Wen had no idea about the multiplier of this gravity field's pressure.
Although the situation appeared optimistic on the surface, the potential risks still could not be ignored.
He was now deeply conflicted, wondering whether he should risk trying it himself.
Looking at the sword in his hand again, although it showed no reaction on the current panel, Li Wen always had a strong intuition.
Perhaps it was due to the gravity field of this place that a mysterious compatibility would arise between this sword and Bud Treasure.
This inexplicable premonition made him both excited and worried, making it difficult to decide for a while.
After a long period of deep thought, Li Wen finally came up with an excellent idea that would both ensure his safety and allow him to make contact with the bone sword in the valley.
This method was to seek help from the “Scoundrel Ancestor.”
One must know that even though Li Wen racked his brain and couldn't solve the problem posed by this mysterious force field, he firmly believed that as a Mind Emperor of Saint Rank, he would have a countermeasure.
After all, on the current Blue Star, according to what Li Wen knew, the most top-tier and powerful combat level belonged to the Saint Rank.
If even an existence like Mind Emperor was helpless against this, then Li Wen could only consider himself unlucky and give up this rare opportunity.
Even before Li Wen had stepped into the secret realm, merely by touching the bracelet with his powerful soul force, Mind Emperor's spiritual consciousness instantly connected with Li Wen like lightning.
Mind Emperor urgently asked,
“What happened? Hurry up and tell me! Don't delay my time dominating the arena.”
Li Wen quickly and respectfully replied, “Mind Emperor, this junior has indeed encountered some rather tricky problems here. It was truly out of desperation that I dared to ask for your esteemed help to resolve them.”
However, upon hearing Li Wen's words, Mind Emperor's originally urgent tone suddenly became somewhat playful.
Mind Emperor teased,
“Heh heh, I never thought aKid with your style of doing things would only be hunted down by enemies now. This is truly beyond my expectations!”
“In my opinion, given your usual conduct, you should have encountered such difficulties much earlier.”
Li Wen felt his reputation was being damaged, and he said with a hint of embarrassment,
“Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that there's a mysterious place of inheritance before me, but the assessment checkpoints set outside are truly making me helpless!”
Li Wen said, helplessly spreading his hands.
Then, he hesitated slightly before continuing,
“So, I shamelessly came to ask for your help. Of course, if you really can't pass these checkpoints either, then so be it. I absolutely won't force you.”
However, when Mind Emperor finished listening to Li Wen's words, an unknown anger surged within him.
To think that his own place of inheritance was easily cracked by this kid, yet now he couldn't even conquer someone else's place of inheritance, and even dared to imply that he himself was equally incompetent?
This was no longer a simple goading tactic; it was a blatant provocation!
It was as if he was openly mocking him.
“Look at you and your inheritance, compared to others, it's simply not worth mentioning, not even comparable to a single strand of their hair!”
Thinking of this, Mind Emperor could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He snorted coldly and said loudly to Li Wen,
“Hmph, stop talking nonsense! Later, you just walk into that place swaggeringly, and leave everything else to me.”
“I will use my Nian-power to completely envelop you, thereby deceiving that damned force field!”
After entering the force field, Mind Emperor indeed exerted his power.
Initially, Li Wen still felt the gravity increasing, and he endured the initial phase with his physique, which far surpassed that of his peers.
Later, all gravity completely disappeared, making it feel like walking on flat ground.
