Chapter 4682: Eggy Is Injured

After Chu Feng entered the barrier gate, he was not trapped.

Instead, he entered a pitch-black world.

It was called a world because it was vast, but in truth there was no ground — it was like an abyss.

Chu Feng found himself here, his body beyond his control, as if he had lost all autonomy.

Chu Feng looked up and saw that the barrier gate was still there, but his body was falling continuously, plummeting toward the deepest depths of that pitch-black, bottomless abyss.

This feeling was extremely unpleasant — it was as if he were drawing ever closer to death, yet he was utterly powerless to do anything about it.

"Chu Feng, what's going on?"

Eggy had also sensed something wrong and questioned him.

"My body is beyond my control. The trial must not be over yet."

"Don't worry, let me observe carefully."

"As long as it falls within the domain of barrier arts, there must be a solution to be found."

Chu Feng opened his Heavenly Eyes and observed his surroundings, but all that met his gaze was utter darkness — he couldn't see anything amiss.

So he simply closed his eyes and released his Mental Power, using the purest form of perception to sense the situation here.

"Don't worry, Eggy. I know what's going on."

"There should be a barrier gate deep in the abyss. As long as we exit through that gate, we can leave."

Chu Feng said.

"So that's how it is. You scared me to death! Making it all so frightening — I thought we'd fallen into a trap."

Hearing Chu Feng's words, Eggy breathed a sigh of relief.

"But there are still some things that are important, which I haven't yet comprehended."

"Give me some time, and I'll be able to comprehend them soon."

Chu Feng said.

"Then stop talking and focus on your comprehension. This is a matter of life and death — you can't afford to be careless."

Eggy reminded him.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

But just then, waves of sound suddenly came from below.

The sound was like the roar of wild beasts, or the wailing of vengeful spirits — utterly terrifying.

It was surging up from below, drawing closer and closer.

"What is that sound?"

"Could there be monsters in here?"

Eggy shared Chu Feng's senses of sight and hearing, and she too was trying hard to analyze.

"Chu Feng, can you open the Spirit Gate and let me out?"

After her analysis yielded nothing, Eggy said.

She didn't want Chu Feng to be alone in such a dangerous situation.

"No, I can't open it."

"But don't worry — it doesn't seem to be monsters. It's wind."

Chu Feng said.

"Wind? Why is there wind here?"

Eggy was somewhat puzzled.

Soon, the roaring drew ever closer, their clothes whipping wildly as the force grew ever stronger — it was indeed wind surging up from the depths of the abyss.

At first, Eggy didn't know what the appearance of wind here meant. But when Chu Feng's descending body halted, and as the wind grew stronger and began pushing his body upward, she finally understood the wind's purpose.

If this continued, Chu Feng would return through the entrance to the cliff outside.

This wind was meant to push Chu Feng out of this abyss and back onto the cliff.

But judging by the time, that cliff had already been consumed by lava and blood lightning. If Chu Feng went back now, it would be certain death.

"Chu Feng…"
