Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

Chapter 116 Exploring the Boundary

"Bixi, try to fly around the tribe and see if there's anything unusual about the flight."

Elder Guiyuan looked at the tourmaline green wings with a gleam in his eyes:

"That's great! Qingli has transformed into a blood wolf, Bixi has returned to her original form, and Zhuzhu's restoration is just around the corner. Then there's hope of separating Dragon Shadow and the Sea Demon God. Everything is developing for the better, and life will be full of sunshine! I, the old man, have become several snow seasons younger!"

Bixi spread his wings and flew into the air, while Elder Guiyuan observed its flight path from the ground. The orcs also looked up at Bixi, silently cheering him on!

After repeated test flights, no abnormalities were found. Bixi also increased the speed and range of the flight.

Suddenly, Tourmaline let out a scream and fell straight down.

Elder Guiyuan was shocked and hurried over to check.

I saw a crack appear on Bixi's wings, and blood was flowing out of it.

"What's going on?" Elder Guiyuan asked anxiously.

Bixi said weakly, "To the north of the tribe... there is an invisible barrier, and my wings hit it..."

Elder Guiyuan looked up toward the north, thinking to himself, "Is there a barrier here? I guess I need to go there and find out what's going on."

"Bixi, are you okay? You can't rush into transformation. Take it easy and let the witch doctor take a look at your injuries first!"

Mona anxiously covered her torn wing with her hands while asking the beastmen to bring out green crystals and replenish the tourmaline. The witch doctor also swiftly tended to the wound and prepared to bandage it!

Mona stopped the witch doctor's actions: "I will use healing magic to treat him, no need to bandage him!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a faint green light emanated from Mona's hand, covering the injured wing layer by layer. The bleeding stopped visibly, and the torn wing was repaired.

"Na, I've made you worry again. Am I really useless? I can't even do a small thing!"

"Silly boy, you're already amazing! My Bixi is truly amazing! He's reverted to his ancestral form and become a true Teng Snake!"

"Mona, take your beast husband back to recuperate. I'll go check out the barrier. It's very strange. I've never heard of any secret realms in your Eastern Continent. Flying beasts never got hurt when they flew over them before! I don't see any barrier here. Where did this barrier come from?"

"Thank you, Elder Guiyuan. Please be careful and check first. Don't put yourself in danger!"

"I'll go with the elder! We can look after each other!"

"That's fine, Bai Chen, be careful and take good care of Elder Guiyuan!"

Bai Chen stepped forward and, together with Elder Guiyuan, prepared some tools and weapons and headed towards the north of the tribe.

Along the way, he carefully observed the surrounding environment, but did not find anything unusual. When he approached the barrier, he finally saw its true appearance.

The barrier appears as a transparent wall without any color or texture, but is able to block the passage of objects.

"This is similar to the barrier in the Qilin Secret Realm. It looks transparent, but it contains murderous intent. I wonder what is hidden behind this barrier?"

As Elder Guiyuan spoke, he tried various methods to break through the barrier, but none of them succeeded. He began to ponder the origin and purpose of this barrier.

At this moment, Bai Chen noticed a stone tablet next to the barrier, with some strange symbols engraved on it. He walked closer to the stone tablet and carefully studied the symbols on it, hoping to find some clues.

"Elder Guiyuan, take a look. Do these symbols resemble the Five Elements symbols in the Qilin Secret Realm?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Guiyuan hurried over and carefully traced the symbols with his fingers. After some effort, he finally deciphered the information on the stone tablet. It turned out that this barrier was an ancient protective formation designed to protect a certain important place or object.

Elder Guiyuan was filled with curiosity and decided to continue exploring to find out what secrets were hidden behind this formation. Elder Guiyuan and Bai Chen studied the stone tablet for a long time but still had no clue.

"Maybe we need to find other clues left by the person who set up the formation." Bai Chen suggested.

So the two began to search around and finally found a tattered book in a hidden corner.

The book records detailed information about this formation and how to enter it.

Following the instructions in the book, Elder Guiyuan and Bai Chen successfully cracked the formation and entered a mysterious cave.

There was a strange atmosphere in the cave, and a faint light flickered on the walls.

They walked forward cautiously, hoping to find the answer to the mystery.

"Elder, this place is similar to the Phoenix Clan's volcanic cave. There are no more records in this fragmented book. It's unclear how safe it is. Let's retreat first and make full preparations before coming back!"

"I think a preliminary investigation first, and then targeted preparations will be more effective. Now that we're here, you and I should be careful, and nothing will happen!"

Bai Chen couldn't persuade the elder, so he nodded and carefully explored the way ahead with the faint light from the stone wall. Bai Chen walked ahead cautiously, and Elder Gui Yuan followed closely behind.

Suddenly, Bai Chen seemed to step on something. With a click, something broke and the whole ground began to shake.

"Oh no, run!" Elder Guiyuan shouted loudly.

However, it was too late. The passage ahead suddenly collapsed, sending countless rocks crashing down. Bai Chen quickly dodged to the side, avoiding the disaster. But Elder Guiyuan was not spared, struck by a huge rock and fell.

"Elder!" Bai Chen hurried to Elder Guiyuan's side and checked his injuries. Fortunately, Elder Guiyuan only suffered some minor injuries and was not seriously injured.

"We can't stay here for long. Let's get out first." Bai Chen carried Elder Gui Yuan on his back and walked out with difficulty. When they finally walked out of the cave, it was almost dusk.

"This time it's all thanks to you, Bai Chen." Elder Guiyuan said gratefully.

"Elder, you're too kind. This is what I should do. But what secrets are hidden in this cave?" Bai Chen asked doubtfully.

"Let's make plans after we recover from our injuries." Elder Guiyuan patted Bai Chen's shoulder, "Let's go back to the tribe first."

Bai Chen carried the elder on his back and walked through the forest with difficulty. Thinking of the collapse just now, both of them were still frightened.

"Elder, I find this very strange. Qingli and Bixi both successfully transformed, and this barrier appeared. I've trained in many places in the Eastern Continent before, but I've never heard of a secret realm in the Lejia Forest. There were only rumors of a powerful being, but that powerful being was Longying! Is this barrier and cave that suddenly appeared a blessing or a curse?"

"Bai Chen, you've seen it too. The same five elements symbols, the same records of entry and exit, should be a blessing, not a curse. I've guarded the Qilin clan's secret realm for a thousand years. Does that mean other clans also have inherited secret realms? I just don't know it!"
