Li Rui and Old Monster dealt with the Three-Eyed Beast and honestly felt a bit tired. They sat on the ground to recover their Source Qi.
Old Monster also sat down to recover his True Qi. He thought of a way to cross the Rainbow Bridge.
After about an hour, both Old Monster and Gan Ni Rui's main wife had nearly recovered, and they stood up to look at the Rainbow Bridge ahead.
Old Monster had already thought of a way to cross the Rainbow Bridge, but he had not yet told Li Rui.
Old Monster looked at Li Rui and said, "Shall we go back?"
Li Rui was speechless, "Can you really handle the Locust at the entrance, Senior?"
Old Monster was also helpless and said, "We can only go over. What a pity about my treasure."
Indeed, the method Old Monster thought of involved using one of his treasures.
Old Monster took out a piece of Transparent Clothes from his Cosmic Bag, draped it over his shoulders, and then grabbed Li Rui and flew directly across.
The Transparent Clothes instantly formed a huge barrier that surrounded the two of them, while magma erupted beneath the Rainbow Bridge...
Inside this clothing, Li Rui felt no heat at all; it seemed to be a true treasure.
As soon as it touched the clothes, they began to burn rapidly. Just as they landed, Old Monster quickly threw away the clothes and sighed regretfully, "I have such a treasure just to cross this broken bridge."
Li Rui couldn't help but eye Old Monster's Cosmic Bag. This guy had everything in there; he must have collected many treasures over thousands of years. He took out such a piece and was heartbroken over it; it seemed Old Monster was quite stingy.
Old Monster looked at Li Rui and instantly understood what he meant!
This guy had no idea how much he had paid for that clothing to obtain it. To think he would complain about him being stingy; if he had known, he wouldn't have brought him along.
The relationship between the two seemed to draw closer through their silent banter.
As they walked, they found themselves at an end, or rather, in front of a door. This door was transparent; they could not see it, yet they could not pass through it.
In this situation, Li Rui also felt quite frustrated. He and Old Monster launched various attacks against the door, but none were effective.
Old Monster looked at the barrier ahead and said to the skilled Li Rui, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a secret realm. This is the entrance to the secret realm, but no matter what we do, we can't break through this barrier."
"It should be a secret realm, but how do we get in? This is quite a troublesome problem," Li Rui replied.
Li Rui and Old Monster had been studying the situation for almost an hour, but they had not come up with any leads.
At that moment, they were greeted by an old friend—yes, it was Weiya.
Lightning Weasel returned after rescuing his wife and child. He came back because he was more familiar with Azure Dragon Tomb. Although Old Monster had been to Azure Dragon Tomb before, there were many secrets here that he was still unaware of.
Lightning Weasel tracked their scent all the way. He knew they had encountered the Three-Eyed Monster and was curious about how they had crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
The moment Old Monster saw Weiya, he expressed his shock, and the two stared at each other in surprise.
Lightning Weasel broke the silence first and asked, "How did you get here so quickly?"
Old Monster stroked his beard proudly and replied, "Who am I? Is it surprising for me to come here?"
Seeing his proud demeanor, Li Rui scratched his nose. Why did this Old Buddy always like to show off in front of Lightning Weasel?
It seemed Li Rui did not understand their relationship, but he knew that Lightning Weasel's visit was definitely not just a simple social call.
Lightning Weasel did not expect them to find this place so quickly; clearly, this location was not ordinary.
Li Rui looked at Lightning Weasel and asked, "Is there some kind of secret in this place?"
"This secret realm is the largest treasure vault within the Azure Dragon Tomb. As long as you open it, there is a peerless crystal inside that contains a rule, which is the Time Rule."
Li Rui and Old Monster listened to Lightning Weasel's words and instantly became unsettled.
Time Rule, they both knew what that represented. Anyone who could comprehend even a little of the Time Rule could kill opponents beyond their level in battle.
There was once a person who fully understood the rules of time, and during one battle, he made his opponent stop moving; by the time they realized what had happened, they were already dead.
The world knows the power of the Time Rule because, in this world, there is nothing but space and time. This world is formed by various rules.
By comprehending a rule, they could achieve great accomplishments, and the Time Rule just happens to be a precious rule that stands above others, on par with the rules of space.
"Did you encounter the Three-Eyed Beast before?"
Li Rui felt a bit curious when he heard Lightning Weasel ask about the Three Beasts. What does this secret realm have to do with the Three-Eyed Beast?
Lightning Weasel scratched his nose and said, "Without the Three-Eyed Beast, you can't open this secret realm."
Old Monster and Li Rui looked at each other with expressions of despair; the problem was that they had already killed the Three-Eyed Beast.
Uh, seeing their shocked expressions, Lightning Weasel curiously asked, "What's wrong?"
Then Old Monster reluctantly replied, "We killed the Three-Eyed Beast."
Upon hearing Old Monster's words, Lightning Weasel almost spat out blood in disbelief. How could they have killed the Three-Eyed Beast? That didn't make sense; he remembered that the beast couldn't be killed at all.
"How could you possibly kill the Three-Eyed Beast? The Three-Eyed Beast is a spirit derived from this barrier, so as long as this barrier exists, it won't die."
After hearing Lightning Weasel's words, Li Rui and Old Monster were both filled with astonishment!
Since they won't die, it means they are still inside the barrier.
But how can we lure them out?
This is a headache-inducing problem, but for Lightning Weasel, it is not a problem at all.
He turned to Old Monster and asked, "Do you have the Seven-Inch Heart?"
Old Monster stroked his beard and replied, "How do you know everything, you rascal?"
"Stop talking nonsense and quickly take out the Seven-Inch Heart!"
Lightning Weasel said to Old Monster, who did not hesitate and directly took out the Seven-Inch Heart, showing no fear that Lightning Weasel would run off with it.
Lightning Weasel, with his white fluffy paws holding the Seven-Inch Heart, faced the barrier and said, "I have the Seven-Inch Heart. As long as you come out and open this barrier, I will give you the Seven-Inch Heart to help you transform into human form."
Old Monster and Li Rui finally understood why the Three-Eyed Beast wanted the Seven-Inch Heart and Soul-Settling Grass so badly; it turns out these two items could help them break free from this barrier and transform into human form.
