Chapter 126 You really are a master of time management!
After carefully reviewing the system information, Gao Huohuo took advantage of the fact that no one was around and immediately began to search carefully inch by inch along the underground river.
She knew perfectly well that Chen Wanzhen was no pushover; how could she possibly come here for no reason?
They're using the pretext of catching heretical practitioners; there must be something fishy going on behind the scenes.
She searched carefully along both banks of the underground river, but found nothing suspicious.
Must we wait until a specific time is right for the treasure to reveal its true form?
But right now she's all alone here, and if the treasure really appears, she's not very confident she can get her hands on it.
Just as Gao Huohuo stood by the river, torn between whether to leave or stay.
Zi Ying's voice suddenly rang in her ear: "Gao Huohuo, someone is coming."
Gao Huohuo didn't dare to delay. He quickly put an invisibility talisman on himself, and with a flash, he hid in a secluded corner.
In the blink of an eye, the sound of two people talking could be heard coming from afar.
"How much longer will it take to get that treasure? I can't stand being here for another day."
A cold, somewhat impatient voice rang out, and Gao Huohuo immediately recognized it as Chen Wanzhen's.
"Holy Maiden, please calm down. That thing is hidden underwater, and it's not convenient to investigate it right now. But it will only be a matter of a day or two, so please don't worry."
Another voice quickly offered reassurance.
“Underwater? Won’t that be dangerous?” Chen Wanzhen asked again.
"I have already thoroughly investigated the area, and there is no danger nearby. Please rest assured, Holy Maiden."
"In that case, let's quickly spread the word that the evil cultivator has been caught and that all the other cultivators should disperse."
If another bunch of idiots like those five from before were to appear, I can't guarantee I'd be able to control myself.
Before long, the sound of the two leaving gradually faded away, and Gao Huohuo cautiously peeked out from the corner.
He secretly wondered: Could the treasure be underwater?
But she had no idea what kind of treasure it was.
Never mind that for now, let's get it first.
Anyway, if I don't need it myself, I can take it back to my senior brothers and sisters, so the trip will not have been in vain.
Having made up his mind, Gao Huohuo's spiritual energy surged around him, as if he were wearing a layer of dazzling armor, and he resolutely went down into the water.
Compared to the difficulties she faced when she first went into the water, this time the journey was much smoother.
Before long, Gao Huohuo successfully reached the bottom of the water, but there was nothing there.
Did she go to the wrong place?
Or perhaps Chen Wanzhen was also fooled, and there was no treasure at all underwater?
Undeterred, Gao Huohuo swam around the bottom of the water a few more times, and even summoned Xiao Lingzi to help check if there was any illusion at play.
After all that effort, nothing came of it.
This enraged Gao Huohuo, who threw a punch with a huff, the powerful force of which created a string of bubbles.
Then, filled with anger, she swam out of the water.
As soon as Gao Huohuo returned to the shore, he suddenly felt a powerful suction force rushing towards him.
Before she could react, she was sucked back in.
Moreover, this suction force is even stronger than the suction force when the Chaos Pearl exploded before.
Gao Huohuo dared not resist directly, so she quickly filled her body with spiritual power. At the same time, she swiftly opened the name on the system.
Once the suction completely disappeared, Gao Huohuo looked around and was surprised to find himself in a very special place.
Judging from the surroundings, this seems to be another independent space, but it is full of spiritual energy.
"This underground river is actually connected to other dimensions?"
Gao Huohuo muttered to himself, "It seems that Su Ruoyun probably doesn't know about this either."
However, this space was truly vast and empty; as far as the eye could see, it was completely deserted, and there was no trace of an exit.
Gao Huohuo turned around in all directions, but still found nothing.
The surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of a sword cutting through the air could be heard.
"Where exactly is the treasure?" Gao Huohuo wondered to himself, filled with doubt.
"It's fine if we didn't see any treasure, but what's the point of having such an empty space?"
Is it just to lure me underwater and then trap me here?
The worst part is that I had already swum out of the water when I was inexplicably pulled back down. That's incredibly unsportsmanlike!
Thinking of this, Gao Huohuo shouted into the void:
"Zi Ying, come out and chat with me, how are we supposed to get out of here?"
Zi Ying's voice drifted over: "Gao Huohuo, is it possible that this space itself is a treasure?"
"Huh?" Gao Huohuo's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
"What kind of treasure is this space? Even if it is, what use is it?"
"Zi Ying, let me tell you, I've studied for nineteen years, don't try to fool me!"
Zi Ying was both amused and exasperated: "Aren't you only thirteen? Where did this nineteen-year age come from?"
Gao Huohuo solemnly counted on her fingers and began to calculate for Zi Ying:
"Look, three years of kindergarten, six years of primary school, three years of junior high school, three years of senior high school, plus four years of university, that makes exactly nineteen years."
Zi Ying was even more surprised: "Putting aside your 'kindergarten' for now, tell me how you managed to use thirteen years as nineteen?"
Gao Huohuo shook his head smugly: "That's easy, I just split myself into two."
One studied during the day, the other at night, and they completed all their studies in nine and a half years.
Zi Ying couldn't help but tease, "Wow, you really are a master of time management!"
Following your logic, does that mean you're now divided into two?
One of them goes out to seek help, while the other just stays here and waits to die?
Gao Huohuo quickly shook his head, looked at Zi Ying, and said with a righteous expression:
"No way, one of them is chatting with you right now, and the other one is chatting with you too."
Upon hearing this, Zi Ying felt a chill run down her spine.
He secretly groaned: Good heavens, so this means that after finally waking up from my deep sleep, I'm going to be trapped here for another hundred years?
Thinking about it that way, I immediately lost interest in chatting.
Without saying a word, it transformed into a streak of light and "whoosh" disappeared back into the whip to hide.
"Hey, Ziying, didn't I tell you to come out and chat? Why did you go back again?"
Seeing this, Gao Huohuo quickly shouted:
"Come out quickly, let's discuss together what the probability is that this space contains treasure?"
"If it really is a treasure, then if we work together to subdue it, we can get out of here!"
Upon hearing this, Zi Ying felt that it made some sense, and that's when she emerged from the whip again.
He suggested to Gao Huohuo, "Gao Huohuo, why don't you try dripping a few drops of blood into this space?"
Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo immediately put on a bitter face and said, "This space is so big, even if I bleed myself dry, it probably won't do any good!"
After saying that, she simply lay down on the ground, looking like she was giving up.
Zi Ying was now in a hurry. After thinking it over and over, she simply called out Han Guang as well, hoping that it could come up with some ideas.
"Gao Huohuo, don't forget what you said!" Zi Ying reminded him anxiously.
Gao Huohuo replied lazily, "Got it. When I'm here, you're here; when I'm not here, you're not here."
Upon hearing this, Han Guang was immediately enraged and said irritably:
"What do you mean 'you are where I am'? It's clearly 'I am where you are, I die and you die'!"
Gao Huohuo casually replied, "Fine, fine, you die, you die."
