Gu Yang was a little skeptical, so he clenched his fists and punched the barrier hard.
However, as soon as his fist touched the barrier, a powerful rebound force instantly hit him and knocked him to the ground again.
"Damn it!"
Gu Yang cursed softly, feeling helpless.
He slumped on the ground, rubbed his numb arm, and stared at the pool of blood, as if trying to see through the barrier and see clearly what was happening below.
"call--"
As the last trace of energy was dispelled, Hu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly refined the remaining medicinal power in his body, and his injuries improved a lot.
Although his right arm still ached slightly, at least he had regained his mobility.
He stood up and looked around, and found Gu Yang slumped on the ground with a dazed look on his face.
Hu Qing's heart tightened, and he quickly stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Brother Gu, are you okay?"
Gu Yang slowly sat up from the ground, shook his head, and pointed at the thin light curtain above the blood pool, with a bit of irritation in his tone:
"I'm fine, something weird just happened."
He told Hu Qing everything about the woman's appearance and her jump into the pool of blood, with a hint of doubt in his tone.
After listening to this, Hu Qing frowned slightly and stared at the light curtain.
He reached out and gently touched the surface of the light curtain.
As soon as the palm touched the light curtain, it felt a soft resistance, as if it was sinking into a thin layer of gelatin.
"This light curtain... is not a formation, there are no formation fluctuations." Hu Qing said in a low voice, with some thought in his tone.
He released his spiritual sense and analyzed the structure of the light curtain bit by bit, trying to find the secret within it.
After a moment, he withdrew his consciousness, his tone filled with some certainty:
"This should be a barrier formed by a spiritual weapon or a technique, and the key to entering is blood."
"Bloodline?" Gu Yang's eyes flashed with doubt when he heard this.
Hu Qing nodded, bent down, grabbed a handful of dirt stained with the black shadow's blood, and then sprinkled it on the light curtain.
As soon as the light curtain touched the bloody soil, it trembled slightly, and then the soil sank into it and dissolved into the pool of blood.
Gu Yang looked at this scene, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "This light curtain... can actually recognize bloodlines?"
Hu Qing nodded, his tone somewhat solemn: "That's right, only those with a specific bloodline can pass through this layer of light curtain."
Gu Yang frowned and whispered, "That woman was able to enter the blood pool easily. Could she be the descendant of the black shadow? But if she is a descendant, why did she seriously injure the black shadow?"
Hu Qing was silent for a moment, and said with a hint of meaning: "Perhaps, she is not the descendant of Black Shadow, but has other purposes."
Gu Yang pointed at the pool of blood with a wry smile: "So are we just going to sit there and wait? Should we try to break this? Otherwise, I always feel uneasy."
Hu Qing frowned and whispered, "This barrier is not simple. I'm afraid we can't break it easily."
Gu Yang nodded, his tone filled with anxiety: "But that woman has been down there for so long, and there's been no movement at all. I'm worried that something happened to her, or that she resurrected that shadow."
Hu Qing was silent for a moment, then said, "Don't worry, let's think about it for a while. It's too dangerous down there. We don't have any information at all. If we go down rashly, we'll just be sending food to the enemy."
At this moment, as if reflecting what Hu Qing said, a huge vortex suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the blood pool.
The vortex was like a huge mouth of the abyss, madly swallowing everything around it.
The water in the pond was stirred and churned, making a gurgling sound, as if some huge creature was waking up.
Gu Yang and Hu Qing stood by the pool of blood and felt a strong suction coming from the vortex.
The suction force not only devoured the surrounding flesh and blood energy, but even the energy in their bodies began to become restless.
Gu Yang's face turned pale in an instant. He felt as if his flesh and blood energy was being pulled by an invisible hand and could leave his body at any time.
"not good!"
Gu Yang growled and quickly circulated his spiritual power, trying to stabilize the energy in his body.
However, the suction was so strong that his efforts seemed to be in vain.
Seeing this, Hu Qing immediately released his own pressure. A powerful spiritual power wave burst out from his body, forming an invisible barrier that barely resisted some of the suction.
He stepped in front of Gu Yang, protecting him behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Keep your mind steady, don't be affected by the suction!"
Gu Yang nodded and persevered with gritted teeth.
The two men stared at the vortex in the blood pool, their hearts full of vigilance.
The vortex grew bigger and bigger, and its suction became stronger and stronger, as if it was going to swallow up the entire world.
After a moment, the suction suddenly disappeared.
The whirlpool in the blood pool gradually subsided, and the originally scarlet water turned into clear water, as if the bloody smell had never existed before.
However, this strange calm made Gu Yang and Hu Qing even more uneasy.
"Be careful! Something is coming up." Hu Qing warned in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the center of the blood pool.
At this moment, a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the bottom of the pool.
The black shadow was only the size of a palm at first, but as it continued to rise, its volume expanded rapidly, and eventually turned into a behemoth ten meters long.
Its upper body is similar to that of a human, but it is covered with dark scales and its cheeks are covered with sharp bone spurs, making it look hideous and terrifying.
Its lower limbs are a thick tail covered with thick scales, which are obviously regrown from the energy of the blood pool.
The most shocking thing is that its face looks more like a dragon, and its eyes are like burning flames, emitting a heart-pounding light.
Its claws were as sharp as knives, and a human figure was stuck in one of its claws - it was the mysterious woman.
The woman's chest was pierced by sharp claws, and blood dripped down her body, dyeing the water red.
Her face was pale, her mouth was slightly open, and her eyes were full of fear and unwillingness.
Apparently, she fought a fierce battle with the black shadow in the pool of blood, but was ultimately defeated.
The black shadow grinned and let out a deafening laugh.
Its sound was like thunder, causing pain in Gu Yang and Hu Qing's eardrums.
It stared at the two of them with its burning eyes, its tone teasing:
"For helping me break out of my shell, this is a reward for you."
After saying that, it swung its claws violently and slammed the woman's body towards Gu Yang and Hu Qing.
The woman's body flew like a cannonball, carrying a huge impact force.
Hu Qing and Gu Yang looked solemn. They quickly mobilized their spiritual power and worked together to catch the woman's body.
However, the impact was so strong that the two men felt as if they were hit by two galloping horses. They couldn't help but take a few steps back and almost fell down.
