She took a few deep breaths, gritted her teeth, and crawled through the crack in the ground.
She didn't know what was down there that she couldn't enter after ten meters. She didn't dare to jump down and could only climb down. Along the way, she would encounter undeads on the wall so she had to clean them up.
The reason why she chose to leave at night was because undeads didn't have combat power. Even though she didn't have combat power, she still felt a chill down her spine as if she was being watched by something.
"Demonheart, these are all inner demons. They can't be disturbed." Hua Ruge closed his eyes and repeated the chant again and again, and at the same time, used his hands and legs to climb downwards.
It was not good to climb up, but it could stop normal people, but it could not stop strong people like Hua Ruge.
Ten meters was a negligible distance in her eyes. She would have reached there in the blink of an eye if the undeads didn't make her hair stand on end.
However, even if she was so slow, it took her less than 10 seconds to reach the bottom. When she reached the bottom, she felt a layer of mist. She didn't know what this mist was, but it was this thing that blocked her spiritual will.
There were a lot of undeads lying on the wall. She couldn't feel their breath but she was sure that they were very strong.
She waved her hand and the undeads were smashed into the dark abyss.
She clenched her teeth and jumped down. It was night time so even if there was a strong undead it wouldn't be able to attack.
After landing on the ground for about five seconds, she suddenly stopped and lightly landed on the ground.
"Creak." She stepped on something that sounded like tiles crashing against each other.
She took out the Illuminating Pearl and hung it on her head. Only then did she realize that what she stepped on was not the ground but was actually tiles, the type that was normally spread on the roof.
She was able to sense what she was looking for so she found that there was a palace below the tile. There were a few undeads in the palace which seemed to be very strong but they were all killed now.
Hua Ruge used some force to land inside the palace and checked the wounds on the corpse. It was a sword wound, it seemed that Tuoba Rui had used it when the corpse was still weak, it could have been at night.
Looks like Tuoba Rui and the others have been here before.
If it was a human, she could determine when the wound was made. But if it was a viable corpse, there was nothing she could do.
She looked for traces of the undeads in the palace and chased after them. She didn't care but still found a lot of undeads in there. But they were killed before they could wake up.
As long as he could track down and kill these undeads along the way, it would be very easy to find them.
Hua Ruge was very fast, because she knew that if she could not meet up with them at night, she would definitely be surrounded and killed by the undead during the day. Who knew how she would end up like them after a few years.
This possibility made Hua Ruge's scalp go numb just thinking about it, which made it even faster.
Along the way, Hua Ruge discovered that this underground world was extremely big, and it was a huge sect's layout as well. The undeads inside were the sect disciples, and many of them were frozen in their normal living conditions.
Sitting, lying down, and even sparring. He could even see the moves the two of them used but were stopped and turned into undeads.
What kind of person was this? To think that it would be so terrifying.
She was incomparably fearful of the people who laid out this formation. Even if they managed to survive, they would likely be met with reprisals. No matter what, it would be a huge crisis.
However, it was impossible for her to give up hope because of the bleak future. Therefore, even if she was afraid, her feet still ran as fast as she could ? ? When she passed by the Compendium Pavilion, she saw that the shelves that held cultivation techniques were all empty.
She had nothing else to take, so she took some historical documents and other stuff. Maybe there was information about this sect in there, and once she knew this, she would be able to grasp important clues, and might even be of use in the future.
This sect was simply too big. Even after chasing them for half the night, she could only see the traces left behind by a few people and not a single person.
However, after she calculated the distance between them and this signature building, she had a rough understanding of the size of this sect. She felt that she should have been able to find Tuoba Rui and the others overnight.
The marks continued forward. There were wounds left by different people on the undead bodies. It was obvious that the three of them were fine here.
After chasing for another incense stick of time, Hua Ruge finally noticed something different. This was the Cultivation Hall, and should be the place where the immortal masters were teaching.
She narrowed her eyes and went forward to take a look, but she didn't see anything. She looked forward and saw traces of buildings being destroyed.
She found out that the undeads weren't just killed in the same place. There were traces of battle. It seemed that the undeads had killed them.
"Looks like they walked there at night. It's already daytime by the time they get there." Hua Ruge speculated.
She still wanted to walk forward but she saw traces of a battle along the way. However they were all undeads and she didn't see any blood or clothes.
She thought she would see them soon, so she picked up her pace. An hour later, she was completely frozen in place.
All traces of the battle were gone. The undeads that hadn't moved were still in front of him. Sitting or lying down or tasting tea.
If the trio passed through this place then they would kill the undeads. The undeads were able to injure people so it was clear that the trio hadn't passed through here.
Her gaze looked in the direction she had come from, and her mind suddenly opened up to a myriad of thoughts.
At that time, Tuoba Rui and the rest set off during the daytime, so there was no reason for them to first pass by the unmoving undeads and then arrive in front of them to attack.
Then the order was wrong. And the place she was standing now wasn't the end, but the beginning. It was true that she was tracking him, but she was heading in the opposite direction.
She slapped her forehead in frustration and said, "What a pig's brain."
However, since the sky hadn't brightened yet, she still had time.
Although she was chasing him, it wasn't difficult for her to figure out where he was. She waved the bracelet in her hand and instantly appeared in the palace she had just landed in. Afterwards, she looked in the opposite direction and found traces of movement.
She breathed a sigh of relief and followed the trail. She would see them tonight no matter what, and she could not drag it out until tomorrow.
