Chapter 2165: Chapter 1900: Repaying Kindness with Enmity_2

But fortunately, the Demon Wolf seemed to want to toy with him and hadn’t exerted full force.

Otherwise, if he entered a state of near death, Yin Xi’s residual power would be instantly activated.

"Howl!"

The One-eyed Demon Wolf raised its head and let out a triumphant howl, walking slowly towards Song Yun.

At this moment, Chen Ben couldn’t even move, and the Demon Wolf wasn’t in any hurry.

However, while it was not in a hurry, He Tiansheng was.

Because right next to Song Yun was He Sui, the two were less than half a meter apart. If the Demon Wolf killed Song Yun, it would definitely follow up by killing He Sui.

By then, the yet-to-activate spell talisman would be unable to unleash its power.

"Song Yun, you’re so cunning, actually trying to use He Sui to force our hand."

He Tiansheng cursed loudly, and had no choice but to swing the magic artifact sword in his hand, releasing several sword shadows with a swish to attack the One-eyed Demon Wolf.

"Howl!"

The One-eyed Demon Wolf was hit and let out an angry howl, but didn’t turn back.

It seemed determined to kill Song Yun first, quickly turning into a shadow and rushing forward, intent on swiftly dealing with Song Yun and then finishing off the others.

In the blink of an eye, it appeared in front of Song Yun, opening its saliva-filled mouth to bite down at him.

Its sharp teeth could bite through even copper bones and iron muscles.

At the same time, the talisman in He Sui’s hand next to him lit up with a blinding light.

The talisman was already activated; as long as she used it, she could kill the Demon Wolf.

But it was all too late, there was no time.

The One-eyed Demon Wolf’s bloodthirsty mouth was already biting towards Song Yun.

"No!"

He Sui shouted anxiously, tears vaguely shimmering in her eyes.

On the other side, He Tiansheng and He Ji felt relieved.

From the current situation, Song Yun would be killed by the One-eyed Demon Wolf, and the next moment, He Sui would use the talisman to slay the Demon Wolf.

This was exactly the result He Tiansheng and He Ji wanted to see.

But suddenly, everyone noticed Song Yun raising his right hand, holding a cup, with the bottom pressed against the stone wall behind him.

What was he doing?

At this moment, Song Yun was holding the Ice Crystal Holy Grail.

Just now, he finally understood why the carving patterns on the stone wall seemed so familiar, because they matched the imprint on the base of the Ice Crystal Holy Grail.

There were also eight passages, and the grail’s imprint matched the stone carving’s pattern.

This was definitely not a coincidence.

Song Yun didn’t know what it represented, but he decided to try, hoping for unexpected results.

So he pressed the imprint on the base of the Ice Crystal Holy Grail against the carving on the stone wall.

At that moment, there was a burst of dazzling light, extremely blinding.

The One-eyed Demon Wolf, whose mouth was poised to bite Song Yun, was also dazzled and couldn’t keep its eyes open, instinctively turning its head and halting the attack.

Its teeth had been just ten centimeters from Song Yun’s head.

This scene was incredibly thrilling.

Then, the light suddenly faded, leaving the whole space with only dim gray light.

When He Tiansheng and He Ji looked towards the stone wall, they discovered Song Yun and He Sui had surprisingly disappeared.

The One-eyed Demon Wolf also gazed at the stone wall, eyes filled with confusion.

He Tiansheng frowned, muttering, "What’s happening, where did that light come from? Where are Song Yun and He Sui? Could they have been eaten by the monster?"

"Howl!"

The One-eyed Demon Wolf roared angrily, abruptly turning its head to look at He Tiansheng and He Ji.

"Run."

He Tiansheng didn’t have time to think about what had happened, regaining his composure, he shouted, and with incredible speed, he sprinted toward the passage they had come from.

He Ji followed closely behind, also taking flight and escaping.

Perhaps the Demon Wolf had been too close to the stone wall, and the light had temporarily blinded its vision, preventing it from pursuing immediately.

It stayed in place for a few seconds, as He Tiansheng and the others had already gone far.

"Awoo!"

The One-eyed Demon Wolf let out an unwilling howl, and instead of chasing after them, it lay down in front of the stone wall, staring intently at it.

Seeing that the Demon Wolf didn’t chase them, He Tiansheng and He Ji both breathed a sigh of relief and slowed their pace.

Finally, they stopped and looked back, their eyes filled with confusion.

He Ji furrowed his brows and pondered, "What exactly happened? Were Song Yun and He Sui devoured by the beast?"

He Tiansheng thought for a moment and said, "No, they definitely weren’t eaten. In that instant, Song Yun must have triggered some kind of Array and left this place. The cup in his hand is the key, the key to activate the Array. The keyhole is on the stone wall."

"Ah, is that so?" He Ji exclaimed, gritting his teeth, "That kid is so cunning, he didn’t tell us about this. No wonder he wanted to take the Longxuan Sect path, now it makes sense."

He Tiansheng fell silent for a moment and gritted his teeth, "We’ll wait here for them to come out. I will not let Song Yun go. Even if I can’t kill him with my own hands, I want to see that One-eyed Demon Wolf kill him."

He Ji nodded and said, "Yes, the One-eyed Demon Wolf is guarding there. If they come out, they’re as good as dead."

...

When the stone wall lit up, Song Yun and He Sui were engulfed in the light together.

The next moment, they appeared in a pitch-black space.

In front of them was darkness; they didn’t know where they were.

Song Yun turned to look back and saw the One-eyed Demon Wolf lying on the ground, its single eye staring intently in their direction.

However, the Demon Wolf seemed to see nothing.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, He Sui exclaimed, and a green light flickered.

Seeing the One-eyed Demon Wolf right behind them, her first instinct was to use her magic charm to destroy it.

"No."

Song Yun hurriedly stopped her.

Seeing the Demon Wolf remain still, He Sui stopped and looked at Song Yun in confusion, "What exactly is going on?"

Song Yun reached out toward the One-eyed Demon Wolf’s direction and felt the space in front of him ripple, his fingers seemingly passing through a wave, emerging on the other side.

"Howl!"

The One-eyed Demon Wolf reacted, letting out a howl and lunging to bite.

Song Yun quickly withdrew his hand, and with a bang, the Demon Wolf seemed to hit a wall, its head tilting as it bounced back.

In front of Song Yun, the space rippled with pattern lines and then returned to calm.

"Howl, howl..."

The One-eyed Demon Wolf, as if going mad, furiously growled in Song Yun’s direction.

Seeing this, Song Yun suddenly realized and told He Sui, "Now, we should be inside the stone wall. We can see the One-eyed Demon Wolf, but it can’t see us."

"Ah! So amazing!" He Sui exclaimed in surprise, "But how did we get in?"

Song Yun shook the Ice Crystal Holy Grail in his hand, revealing the stamp at the bottom, "I got this thing earlier, and I thought it was useless, so I kept it as a memento. I didn’t expect it to match exactly with the carving on the stone wall."

He Sui’s eyes lit up and she said, "So it’s like a key and a lock?"

"More or less."

Song Yun nodded, secretly thinking to himself, could he really be some kind of chosen one?

If not, how could he have ended up with the Ice Crystal Holy Grail?

He shook his head, dismissing the thought, and said to He Sui, "Let’s heal our injuries first. Once we’ve recovered, we’ll continue forward. Who knows what dangers lie ahead."

He Sui agreed with a nod, then she took out two Cloud Sun Pill, one for each of them. Both began healing their injuries after consuming them.

After seven days, Song Yun and He Sui’s injuries were mostly healed.

For their level, fractures and other external injuries are easy to recover from.

However, Song Yun had internal injuries, which took seven days to heal.

Otherwise, it would have only taken two days.

After healing, they continued forward.

Song Yun turned on a flashlight, illuminating the path ahead. The passage had a turn, and it did not seem to be very long.

The two walked along the passage, and less than five hundred meters later, the space ahead suddenly opened up to reveal a circular hall about fifty meters in diameter.

In the center of the hall, there was a cracked stone tablet, with inscriptions carved onto it.

"Let’s go and have a look,"

Song Yun said to He Sui, stepping into the hall.

But as soon as he stepped into the hall, he felt his entire body become extremely heavy, making it difficult to move.

Inside the hall, there was actually a gravitational field.
