An hour later, Fade Chen finished his experiment, sweating profusely and panting, obviously exhausted.

Seeing this, everyone gathered around.

Chen Huochong was at the front and supported Fade Chen: "Boss, are you okay?"

"Fade Chen—" Others also surrounded him.

Fade Chen calmed down and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, I'm fine."

"It's just too much consumption for a while, just take a rest for a while."

Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly took out various elixirs and liquids and asked Fade Chen to take them.

After a short rest, Fade Chen slowed down, looked at the worried people around him, and said with a smile, "I'm fine."

"I tried it just now. In theory, I replaced the core of the teleportation circle with Yuan Yin, which can reactivate the magic circle and restore the teleportation function."

"Of course, this functionality is one-off."

Hearing this, Chen Huo couldn't help applauding: "Boss, that's great, we have a way out."

Fade Chen said: "Don't be too happy."

"I mean, theoretically, I can reactivate the magic circle. But in reality, with my current situation, it's very difficult to succeed. Because the magic circle is incomplete and needs to consume too much spiritual energy, I can't support it alone. "

"So, we have to find a way to repair the magic circle as much as possible, and at the same time accumulate spiritual energy for consumption."

Everyone nodded quickly.

"Fade Chen, what can we do to help, just ask."

So, in the following time, the seven of them became busy.

Fade Chen is mainly responsible for repairing the magic circle and accumulating spiritual energy at the same time. Let others come and help when needed. Those who can't help for the time being, use the resources in the treasure house to practice hard and improve their strength.

Three days later, after repairing around the clock, Fade Chen restored most of the magic circle, and accumulated a lot of aura. According to this progress, in another two or three days, the accumulated spiritual energy will be enough to activate the magic circle once.

Several other people, because of the busy and hard work of the past few days, have lost a lot of weight and looked a little embarrassed.

However, everyone is in a good mood. Because of these few days of penance, everyone can clearly feel that their strength has improved a bit.

If the protective effect of the special ointment on the soul is included, everyone's combat effectiveness has been greatly improved. Even against the demon monks of the same level, everyone has the confidence to win.

Just when everyone was rejoicing, suddenly, Qi Hao ran back in a hurry: "It's not good."

"What's going on?" Fade Chen asked seriously.

Qi Hao panted and said: "When I was patrolling outside just now, I saw a group of Heavenly Demon Army moving not far away. According to their marching route, I am afraid they will search for us tomorrow."

"Heavenly Demon Army! Could it be that we have been discovered?" Everyone was shocked.

Fade Chen continued to ask Qi Hao: "How many people are there in that Heavenly Demon Army, and what is its strength? Is there anyone you know?"

Qi Hao recalled for a moment: "There are not many people, only more than 20 people, it should be a small team."

"As for the strength and the people I know, I dare not get close, so I can't judge."

Fade Chen nodded slightly, then looked at everyone, and said: "Chen Huo and I went out to investigate, you guys hide the traces of the activities, and be careful not to reveal your whereabouts."

After getting along with each other for this period of time, everyone also knew Fade Chen's character, so they nodded in agreement without saying anything, and then went to their respective jobs.

Chen Fei and Chen Huo left the cabin and came to the place where Qi Hao was patrolling. Looking from a distance, as expected, they saw a marching team in a mountain col several kilometers away.

Seeing this, Fade Chen didn't approach directly, and said to Chen Huo: "You follow this team, but pay attention to the distance, don't get too close."

"Yes, boss!" Chen Huo nodded without asking.

Fade Chen got into the forest, walked quickly, circled a big circle, and headed towards the rear of the team.

About two hours later, Fade Chen came back and immediately asked Chen Huo, "How is the situation?"

Chen Huo replied: "This team has been moving in the nearby mountains and forests. They searched very carefully, and almost never gave up on a single cave. Therefore, they are not moving fast."

"I guess they should be looking for us."

"It should be so!" Fade Chen nodded, agreeing with Chen Huo's guess, "I bypassed them just now and went to investigate behind."

"I found that a large army was stationed in a town 30 kilometers behind them, which should be their base camp. Not only in this direction, they also sent search teams in other directions. It seems that they are carrying out a carpet Search, I'm afraid we can't hide here."

When Chen Huo heard this, he became a little anxious: "Boss, what should we do?"

Fade Chen paused, and said, "Let's go back first."

Back at the cabin, Fade Chen and Huo Chen told the others about the situation they had detected.

Everyone became anxious and worried.

"If the other party searches, what should we do? I'm afraid we can't hide it."

"It's not safe here anymore, do you want to change places?"

"I'm afraid other locations are even less safe. After all, we don't know each other well here, so where can we hide?"

"Then what should we do? Stand still and wait to die?"

When a crisis is approaching, everyone is inevitably a little anxious.

Seeing this, Fade Chen suppressed other voices and said, "Calm down, everyone, let me summarize the current situation."

"According to the other party's direction of travel and search speed, tomorrow is at most the day after tomorrow, and they will definitely search here. When the time comes, we will find that this is a high probability event. We can say that it is inevitable."

"But if we leave, we won't be able to take the treasure house with us, and we are indeed unfamiliar with other places. I'm afraid it will be difficult to hide. Sooner or later, we will be found by the opposing army."

"I can't hide, I can't escape, so do we have to die?" Xie Jing was a little emotional.

Fade Chen glanced at her, and said in a deep voice: "At present, we still have a way out, and that is the teleportation array."

Mentioning this, everyone's eyes lit up, but then they realized something.

"Fade Chen, what you mean is that we leave through the teleportation array."

"This is a good way, but the teleportation array has not been repaired yet, as you said, it will take at least two or three days, so I'm afraid it's too late."

Fade Chen nodded: "What you said is the truth, so the only way I can think of is to delay that team and buy time for the repair of the teleportation array."

"Everything that can be repaired by the teleportation array has been repaired. What is lacking now is the accumulation of aura. So, next, you need to accumulate aura as soon as possible for the teleportation array to use."

"I'm going out to make noise, get that team elsewhere, and try to buy as much time as possible."

When Chen Huo heard this, he immediately became anxious: "Boss, you are too dangerous like this. You also said that there are large troops behind the other party. Once you show up, they will send large troops to surround you, which is too dangerous."

"Fade Chen, I'll lure the team away. You come to repair the circle." Han Huai said.

"I'll go too!" Yunxi said immediately.

Seeing this, the other three also wanted to speak.

Fade Chen shook his head and said, "I will go alone, which is the best choice at present."

"To put it bluntly, the strength of everyone present is not as good as mine. Moreover, I still have the means to protect myself, so it is most suitable for me to go."

"Can--"

Others wanted to persuade, but Fade Chen decided directly.

"Okay, I don't have time, so the plan is set, everyone prepare quickly."
