And it's true. The dark creatures that followed Mu Lian's entourage since coming out of the residential area continued to follow them to this day.
In fact, these dark creatures join forces with their friends and form more shadows.
Although it looked quite sinister followed by those shadows, Mu Lian and the others decided to leave immediately.
Because according to Du Luhan and Xu Tian, The longer they stay near the creatures of darkness, their consciousness is lost until they finally fall asleep.
And when the Xu brothers recounted their experience of not being sleepy despite being out here long enough, it made Du Luhan and Xu Tian even more convinced that the people who were outside the protection of the mysterious tree shield only experienced the incident.
"Are you not sleepy at all?" du Luhan asked Xu Jing and Xu Ke.
"I swear, we didn't feel anything! Even now we still feel refreshed." Xu Jing replied with a wry smile.
"Uncle Du, please focus! We almost fell!" yelling Xiaohan over the gondola to the right and to the left.
"Sorry," Du Luhan said began to exert all his attention to operating the gondola.
Du Luhan and Xu Tian are still under the influence of a dark creature's curse, but both insist on operating the gondola, helping to bring along some of the exploration teams that have yet to recover.
And according to the confession of Du Luhan and Xu Tian, it turned out that after they operated the gondola, the drowsiness they experienced became lighter.
With the help of a magical gondola, the exploration team can safely return home. There are no obstacles or accidents that can be life threatening.
But when they had arrived near the residential area, a voice caught the attention of Mu Lian and the others until they stopped to listen.
His voice sounded like it was coming out of the radio, reverberating all over the True Cave. There was a debate between two men.
"Crazy basic! Mr. Shengzi did tell you to inform him when they were stranded for the first time here!
Why did you just do it 6 months later huh?! Their punishment is not over yet, so you have told them as much as possible to keep them alive" said a man with his bass voice.
"Ah, sorry. I haven't told ya? It turns out that the True Cave Ecosystem was slightly disrupted until it underwent several changes after someone acted with the core of Semu Cave.
You hear, hey, sinners? The phenomenon you are experiencing right now is because of your own actions.
I should have told you that the next year would begin our master's program, the first washout program.
One year to come, well now it's six months to come. All the spirit beasts and ferocious beasts present in this place would rise to one level stronger.
Do not be afraid, because after that the second washing program will occur again 10 years later.
You guys must know, right? if all that is here becomes strong you will perish if not become strong in the next 6 months or even 1 year.
But take it easy, if you manage to survive, you will get stronger very quickly because of what?
Because when you manage to kill one spirit beast or beast that is here is equivalent to you meditating for 10 years!" said the man with a lazy tone in every sentence he spoke.
But his sentence had the loudest effect than his colleague's sentence. Everyone could only quietly listen to the instructions of the person claiming to be the follower of the owner of the True Cave.
Yang Mu Lian recalled, her voice first reverberated for a moment before all those in the Sacred Cave were sucked into the stomachs of the gigantic creatures.
The two people, in addition to claiming to be followers of the owner of the True Cave, also claimed to be guards of this place.
So both will keep all those stranded here seriously punished. If judged well by the two guards, it is possible that the punishment time will be reduced.
But I don't know what the conditions for the punishment time are reduced. Mu Lian and the others did not know exactly how long they were sentenced to be stranded in this place.
...
"So, according to the two guards, we only have 6 months to get stronger before all the life force present in this True Cave surpasses us?" mu Haocun said while stroking his chin.
All that was behind the protection of the magic tool as well as the mysterious tree shield were unable to hear the two guards of the True Cave.
Mu Lian and the others also suspected that the voices of the two guards would not be heard until the settlement area because such a major change of monochrome world alone did not occur in the residential area.
Mu Lian decided to share this bad news with Mu Haocun while Meng Zhi, Ling Zizhou and the others told their neighbors.
"I am very angry at the people from the cult of the heretic sect! If only they had not angered the True Cave consciousness it would have been bad news we could have known sooner.
No, if they don't do that, this won't happen!" meimei said accidentally smashing the cup after unknowingly losing control of its power. Tea spilled everywhere.
"May jie!" exclaim Xiohan and Xiaoqiu. Xiaohua hurriedly picked up a clean cloth to help Meimei wipe away the tea that soaked his hands, and his table.
"Six months is like the blink of an eye. There was no chance for one to increase his cultivation," Master Yi said.
"But one of the guards leaked out that their master did not want us all to die in the phenomenon that would happen six months to come" Mu Lian reminded.
Mu Lian and Meimei nodded. Mu Haocun immediately told Mu Lian (because it seemed that Meimei seemed reluctant to come out again) to deliver his message so as not to panic and do what they could at the moment.
Mu Haocun also conveyed to prepare himself to face spirit beasts as well as ferocious beasts whose strength was equivalent to the level of core formation like Meimei or even soul formation like Meng Zhi.
Initially Mu Lian did not believe what she heard but seeing Mu Haocun's expression still the same, Mu Lian finally came out and told Meng Zhi.
When Mu Lian arrived, things were completely out of control. The limb that was used last night to hold a welcoming party, was filled with mobs. They call it the town hall.
The current situation with last night is very contrasting. Today, many faces were anxious and sad.
Everyone thought after being stranded in this place and cursed not to be able to come out for either time but when, they would be left alone. But apparently not.
The crowd was waiting for the decision to be taken by Meng Zhi and their leaders who were currently discussing in one of the big enough tree houses not far away.
Some realized Mu Lian's arrival and greeted Mu Lian but most of them dissolved in their respective minds.
Even Mu Lian's fans looked worried about their uncertain future until they were unaware of Mu Lian's arrival.
"Lian'er? Any word from Ah-I mean your grandfather?" said Meng Zhi.
"Grandfather said that we should not panic and do what we can" Mu Lian said, explaining the suspicion that the guards would not let them all die at any cost.
"Ah. I just remembered. But, how far are those two guards guarding us?" du Luhan said.
"Grandfather didn't say it for sure and we didn't hear it either, did we?" said Mu Lian. Everybody nodded.
"Well, first of all what can we do in these 6 months?" said Xu Tian.
"Having food, herbaceous plants and all the resources we can stockpile" Mu Lian said.
"..."
"Let's just say we're hibernating during the winter. For a difficult time to determine for sure, we use that time to adapt" Mu Lian said.
Du Luhan, Xu Tian and the other chiefs only nodded. After that everything there determines how the exploration team will be formed considering the power of spirit beasts and beasts out there is equivalent to Meimei and Meng Zhi.
Throughout the discussion, the atmosphere was very gripping because their decision would determine the life of their colleagues. There can be no mistake in making a decision.
Even so, they could easily determine which exploration team would be leaving for these six months.
Their main purpose is to bring as many foodstuffs, springs and items that are beneficial for daily life as possible.
The results of the discussion that had been agreed upon were then informed to all who were waiting at the residents' hall.
After hearing the decision, everything looks a little relaxed but anxiety still adorns most people.
Especially the next day began to circulate a list of people who will go to explore.
Everyone knew that the difficulty level inside the True Cave was quite high. To survive alone is difficult especially now they have to actively look for wild animals even spirit beasts if necessary.
The next day, a list of people selected for exploration was attached to a branch near the town hall.
A fairly large crowd was already visible even though the flowers that indicated the sunrise time had just bloomed.
In a paper bag written from teams 1 to dozens of teams are broken down to carry out exploration on the assigned area of each team. In addition, it is also written how many days to the deadline of 6 months.
Everyone got a chance to go exploration, no one was left behind. This is all their leaders can do for the good of their members.
Although the change did not look like a single drop of water in the middle of the ocean, at least they were trying.
Everything was getting ready for 3 days, because within that period of time, Du Luhan and Xu Tian held a briefing on the world behind the shield as well as the existence of the dark creatures.
Du Luhan and Xu Tian repeated the information until the hearing ear would bleed. But this is done so that everyone remembers and does not make mistakes.
Three days went very fast for the chairmen who prepared all sorts of things and walked very slowly for those who followed the 'lecture'.
Fortunately the preparation was completed on time and the time has come for them to exert all their abilities to deal with the events that will occur 6 months to come.
"Be careful on the road. Remember, you have to look after each other!" mu Lian said to the cheerful smiling Xu Jing and Ling Zizhou with her annoyed face.
"Just calm down, I'll immediately take cover behind Ah Zhou if there's anything!" said Xu Jing grinning.
"Heh, what am I your shield?!" snapped Ling Zizhou while glaring.
