Warren's Rise and Fall - Chapter 214: Breaking the Illusion

Elder Wang Yanran saw this and quickly had his mouth blocked again. The elder had a serious face, and her eyes revealed majesty and wisdom. She was wearing a light blue robe and her long hair was tied up, looking dignified and steady. Elder Wang Yanran knew the importance of this mission and must not let Lu Xunhuan's reckless behavior affect the actions of the entire team. She frowned slightly, and then told everyone to look around to see if there were any entrances, exits, or mechanisms. After Lu Xunhuan's mouth was blocked, he could only express his dissatisfaction with his eyes, but there seemed to be a hint of a comfortable smile in his eyes, as if he was watching an interesting farce.

Everyone immediately dispersed and began to search carefully around. Wang Lunwo seemed particularly calm, his eyes were sharp, and he observed everything. The young disciple had a resolute face and his eyes were full of desire to explore. He had read the Book of Changes on Blue Star, and at this moment, his mind kept recalling the mysterious runes he had seen. Suddenly, a subtle rune caught his attention. He squatted down and looked at the rune carefully, and a sense of familiarity surged in his heart. After repeated comparisons, he finally determined that this was the pattern of the Greedy Wolf Star.

Although he had discovered something strange, Wang Lunwo was not in a hurry to make it public. He knew very well that in this place full of unknown dangers, exposing his discovery too early might bring unexpected troubles. He raised his head and his eyes fell on Yan Jinfan who was not far away. Yan Jinfan was a powerful disciple from the same school and was good at flying. Wang Lunwo walked quickly to Yan Jinfan and whispered, "Brother Yan, can you take me up into the air? I have an important discovery that needs to be verified from the air." Yan Jinfan was slightly stunned, then nodded. He waved his hands lightly, and a strong airflow lifted the two of them up and slowly rose into the air.

As they slowly ascended into the air, the surrounding scenery gradually became wider. The people below watched them rise, some disapprovingly, while others showed a puzzled look. A female disciple from Liuli Sect was not used to their behavior and said directly: "Who is this person? He just ascended into the air like this. Did he find something?" Another female disciple also echoed: "Yes, why didn't you tell us what you found?" Another female disciple said worriedly: "Even if you found something, you should be careful. If the people from Hehuan Sect find out that we are here, we won't be able to get away." Everyone was talking, and the scene was a little chaotic for a while.

In the air, Wang Lunwo was concentrating on feeling the surrounding environment. As the altitude continued to rise, the fog below became thicker and thicker. When he reached an altitude of 100 meters, the vision had become very blurry due to the fog below. Wang Lunwo had no choice but to turn on the water perception. He closed his eyes and felt the flow of water vapor around him with his heart, trying to find some clues from it. Water perception is his unique ability, which can perceive the surrounding environment and objects by sensing the changes in water vapor. In his perception, the surrounding water vapor seemed to have life, flowing gently and transmitting various information.

After careful perception, Wang Lunwo indeed discovered the distribution of several other star patterns. He was excited. These patterns were Lianzhen Star, Jumen Star, Wenqu Star, Wuqu Star, Pojun Star, Lucun Star, Zuofu Star, and Youbi Star, distributed in the shape of the nine stars of the Big Dipper. It seemed that this was the center of the maze. Wang Lunwo opened his eyes and carefully observed the position and distribution of these patterns again to make sure that his judgment was correct.

Then, he signaled Yan Jinfan to land on the ground. Yan Jinfan nodded slightly, controlling the airflow to slowly descend. When they returned to the ground, everyone's eyes were immediately focused on them. Wang Lunwo walked quickly to Elder Zheng without any hesitation and briefly told Elder Zheng about his speculation. Elder Zheng had a serious expression, with a hint of surprise and admiration in his eyes. He frowned slightly and asked seriously: "Wang Lunwo, how sure are you?" Wang Lunwo answered without hesitation: "To be honest with you, Elder, I am more than 80% sure." Elder Zheng pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll talk to Elder Wang."

After hearing what Elder Zheng said, Elder Wang Yanran also came over. The two elders discussed in a low voice and finally decided to do as Wang Lunwo said. Although the female disciples of Liuli Sect were dissatisfied, they felt that the speculation of a young disciple of Wang Lunwo might not be reliable, but they still did not dare to disobey the elders. So, the four male disciples of Cangyun Sect, the four female disciples of Liuli Sect, and Wang Lunwo stood at the positions of the nine stars of the Big Dipper. After everyone stood still, they looked at each other, their eyes full of tension and expectation.

Lu Xunhuan was also attracted by the huge movement. Although his mouth was blocked, his eyes were fixed on Wang Lunwo, with a deep look in his eyes. Perhaps he did not expect that this seemingly ordinary young disciple could actually solve such a complicated maze.

When the fog completely dissipated, Xiaoyao Valley was not far ahead. Wang Lunwo looked at the valley in front of him, but he did not feel the slightest bit of joy in his heart. He knew very well that the enemy's base camp was ahead and he had no chance of winning. He turned around and said to Elder Wang Yanran and Elder Zheng Youxu: "Elders, although the maze here has been broken, Xiaoyao Valley is ahead, which is the enemy's base camp. Our strength is limited, and we may fall into great danger if we move forward rashly. I suggest that everyone leave and find a better time to explore again." Elder Wang Yanran and Elder Zheng Youxu looked at each other. They saw Wang Lunwo's performance just now and agreed with his judgment in their hearts. Elder Wang Yanran nodded slightly and said: "What Wang Lunwo said makes sense. Although we have solved the maze this time, the situation in Xiaoyao Valley is unclear, and we must not act rashly." Elder Zheng Youxu also agreed: "That's right, we should evacuate here first and make long-term plans."

However, just when everyone was about to evacuate, a loud voice rang out: "It's a pleasure to have friends coming from afar!" This voice seemed to come from all directions, full of majesty and mystery. Everyone suddenly became nervous, tightened their weapons in their hands, and observed their surroundings vigilantly. Elder Wang Yanran's face was solemn, and she whispered: "Everyone be careful, it seems that we have been discovered." Elder Zheng Youxu also frowned, thinking about how to deal with it. Wang Lunwo's heart tightened, he knew that they were in danger at this time. But he did not panic, but calmly observed the situation around him, trying to find a way out.
