“Continue. Why did you suddenly stop?”
Zhao Anqi, whose body was burning up, asked curiously. There was no external interference, and she had already prepared for this.
“Something happened to Yan Wuyue.” All the thoughts in Zhou Mingrui’s mind were interrupted.
At this moment, an emergency signal came from his spiritual link with Yan Wuyue.
Hearing this, Zhao Anqi quickly put on her clothes even though she was both mentally and physically unhappy. Then, she asked quickly, “What happened? Where did the accident happen? I’ll ask the driver to take us there immediately.”
“Okay, I’ll confirm the location with her immediately.” At that moment, Zhou Mingrui’s eyes were clear. He no longer had the desire from before.
He wanted to make a call, but he realized that no one picked up. This made Zhou Mingrui frown.
But soon, he received a message on his phone. It was a picture of a place.
“What is this?” Zhou Mingrui was a little confused.
Soon, Zhao Anqi recognized the location and quickly said, “I know this place. I’ll get the driver to take us there!”
Zhao Anqi picked up the walkie-talkie and immediately ordered the driver to head to the location.
Along the way, the feeling in his mind grew stronger and stronger. However, no one picked up Zhou Mingrui’s phone calls.
Yan Wuyue was either in a critical state and had no time to recover, or she had been subdued.
Her life couldn’t be in danger, which was clearly shown through the spiritual link.
“I forgot to tell you that the location is in a mountain range outside the city. That place is classified as a mild danger zone.” Zhao Anqi quickly said.
“If it’s a mild danger zone, Yan Wuyue wouldn’t need me. So, it must be another danger.” Zhou Mingrui analyzed.
“I’m going to find my dad now. How about we get him to help us?” Zhao Anqi said worriedly.
“No need for that. I don’t understand the situation there yet. Let’s go and figure it out first!” Zhou Mingrui said in a deep voice.
At this moment, the driver was no longer driving slowly. He had transformed into a super racer. He increased the speed of the car to the maximum but not over the speed limit.
Soon, the car arrived outside the city. On the muddy road, the car began to shake slightly.
“We’re here.”
The moment the car came to a stop, Zhou Mingrui immediately opened the car door and alighted.
The surroundings were a sparse forest, and there was no trace of a battle at first glance.
“Um?” Zhou Mingrui scanned his surroundings in puzzlement. He then looked in a particular direction based on the feeling he had sensed through the connection.
“You stay here. If I don’t come back in half an hour or I don’t contact you, ask your father to bring people to find us.” Zhou Mingrui said with narrowed eyes.
“I think I should just follow you?” Zhao Anqi was worried.
“No, you can’t come. You’re our last assurance.” Zhou Mingrui turned to Zhao Anqi and said, “If something happens to you, we won’t be able to turn things around.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.” Zhao Anqi understood what he meant and did not force herself.
With that said, Zhou Mingrui turned around and followed the spiritual link. Soon, he entered the forest, but he still did not see anyone.
“That’s not right, the spiritual link is clearly here.” Zhou Mingrui looked at the quiet surroundings and was immediately puzzled.
“Wait, could it be another secret realm?” At that moment, Zhou Mingrui suddenly thought of this possibility.
However, the problem was how to find the entrance to the secret realm, in which he had no experience.
At that moment, Zhou Mingrui’s expression turned solemn because he heard a faint voice in his mind.
Upon realizing this, Zhou Mingrui immediately closed his eyes and focused. Soon, he heard the voice that belonged to Yan Wuyue.
[Can you hear me, Wuyue!]
Zhou Mingrui was still unable to hear it clearly. All he could do was call out in reverse. At the same time, he began to lock onto a more accurate location based on the strength of the sound.
[Zhou Mingrui!]
Soon, Zhou Mingrui could hear Yan Wuyue’s call more clearly.
[I heard you. Are you in another space?]
[That’s right, I’m in an alternate space!]
After receiving a clear answer, Zhou Mingrui immediately pressed, [Then how do I get in and find you?]
Yan Wuyue immediately replied, [The place where you are now is the closest to the link. Next, I will use this spatial characteristic to burst out energy. You have to seize the opportunity to break in directly.]
[Before you come in, you have to leave an item with your energy outside. That is the key to our return.]
[Alright!]
Zhou Mingrui immediately replied. After some thought, he took out a piece of bone from his pocket. After injecting some energy into it, he buried it under his feet. Following that, he began to focus his attention on the space around him.
A few minutes later, the space in front of him to the left suddenly distorted slightly. Zhou Mingrui, who was staring intently, immediately noticed it.
In the next moment, the twisted space was like a cloth that was being pulled, and it began to show signs of twisting. It became more and more twisted, and even a crack appeared.
At that moment, the Nether Flame Bone Blade appeared in Zhou Mingrui’s hand. Without any hesitation, he aimed the blade in that direction and slashed.
The phantom energy on the blade condensed and turned into an energy blade.
Just like a pair of scissors, the blade directly tore open a crack in the originally extremely distorted space. A strange scene could be vaguely seen inside.
[Now’s the time. Come in directly!]
Upon hearing that, Zhou Mingrui charged forward without any hesitation and crashed into the spatial rift.
The moment he entered the rift, a powerful pulling force was exerted on his body. However, Zhou Mingrui managed to withstand it with his strong body.
After a few seconds of dizziness, the world in front of Zhou Mingrui’s eyes became clear again.
The first thing that came into view was the incomparably tall trees and all kinds of strangely shaped flowers and plants.
“Hurry, come over!”
The next moment, Yan Wuyue grabbed Zhou Mingrui’s arm and pulled him into a hidden hole.
“What’s going on?”
Zhou Mingrui asked curiously after they entered the cave.
For the first time, Yan Wuyue showed a helpless expression. “It was originally going according to plan, but when I was about to get that thing, a mysterious guy suddenly appeared. I don’t know what method he used to cause the surrounding space to fluctuate and produce spatial ripples.”
“Who knew that there was a hidden spatial secret realm here, and it just happened to be right next to me? I didn’t even have time to react before I was directly sucked in.”
Zhou Mingrui was surprised. “What? Are you saying that you didn’t know about this place in your previous life?”
Yan Wuyue nodded. “I can’t possibly know all the spatial secret realms. It’s possible that this place has been developed by someone in my previous life, but I don’t know about it. It’s also possible that no one has ever come here in my previous life.”
