Chapter 810: Chapter 809: The Visitor

Deep beneath the earth, within the Dome, Yusuf Zuck lay flat on the ground in the shape of a big "X," motionless. A blue halo of light continuously enshrouded him, but his body was also bursting with a strange energy, the Power of the Thick Earth that was converging from the earth itself.

When Yusuf Zuck received the Power of the Thick Earth, his **** seemed as though he were possessed, unexpectedly initiating a sword dance. Moreover, he danced with his eyes closed, and with every movement, a certain aura would flow into his body from the sword, gradually making his breath grow stronger and colder.

There was also Lily Case; she swallowed a red Elixir and immediately flames erupted all over her body, equally bizarre!

Above in the dome, the mural depicting two men and a woman also seemed to flicker, and as the mural flickered, the carvings of the two men and one woman gradually faded as if they were about to melt away.

Anais Dillon, who had entered the underground unknowingly, didn’t realize that his most favored and accomplished disciple had abandoned him and fled. When it came to intelligence, Anais Dillon wasn’t as smart as Tyler Nash, and Tyler Nash, who could withstand anything—he had even drunk urine—would astound the world with his rare outburst.

Asher Zuck, raging with fury, gradually calmed down, but his intent to kill remained. In truth, he not only wanted to kill Bryson Campbell, but he also wanted to kill Lily Case. Since he couldn’t have her body and heart, and since she was already with another, he would destroy her, for as long as she lived, Asher Zuck would forever be a laughingstock!

Only if she and that adulterer were both dead, would all jokes and rumors come to an end, and he might even pursue a new love.

The Ice Fairy, with a cold expression, had already agreed to a marriage with the Five Elements Sect and had even received the gifts. Yet Lily Case played such a trick on her, causing her to break her word and likely deeply offend the Five Elements Sect. Thus, she not only intended to kill Bryson Campbell but also to exact punishment on Lily Case.

A complex and sprawling network of underground tunnels now had over a hundred people enter, all of whom were experts above the Fusion level.

However, even with over a hundred people entering, it was like entering a vast ocean because the underground tunnels were too numerous and large, and Divine Sense could not be used. Some areas had also collapsed, so often they would end up walking into a dead end. They either had to break through the dead end or return and start over.

Of the hundred or so people who went in, after three months, they had found nothing, discovering no rare and valuable treasures, nor seen Bryson Campbell and the Case family, not even their bones!

Of course, it was also possible that Bryson Campbell and the Case family were buried beneath the earth, just not yet excavated.

People started emerging one after another, with the six Earth Immortals coming out first. Even though they possessed the power to move mountains and fill seas, they couldn’t accomplish anything underground, for the Saint Dragon Continent was like that—the earth held infinite mysterious powers, and humans were only meant to live on the surface; no one had yet managed to truly travel underground.

Although the Five Elements Sect had their Five Elements Secret Technique, they could not travel underground either.

You see, true underground travel means integrating one’s flesh with the earth and walking beneath the surface. But there are no roads or spaces underground, only thick earth. How can you walk? Therefore, humans cannot walk within the earth.

After the six Earth Immortals came out, they were all puzzled because they didn’t know whether the treasure had emerged or not, or if someone had already found it and kept it a secret, so they were also at a loss.

On the ninetieth day, Koen Zuck emerged holding a Long Spear, the last one to come out.

He had searched for a full ninety days and hadn’t even caught a glimpse of Lily Case.

"There were too many collapses underground; maybe the Case family and Bryson Campbell really are dead?" someone suggested in a low voice.

"Dax Blackwell, what do you think?" At this moment, the several Earth Immortals looked towards Master Blackwell. They had searched for so long without finding the treasure or any trace of Bryson Campbell, so the question was whether to continue the search or to head back home?

"The Saint Dragon Pavilion still has matters to attend to, so this old man will head back to the Saint Dragon Pavilion first. We shall meet again, everyone!" Master Blackwell believed there was no need to keep searching; three months had passed, and there had been no sign of the artifact. So, obviously, the artifact had either been obtained by someone, or there was no artifact at all!

Master Blackwell left first, accompanied by other experts from the Saint Dragon Pavilion.

As soon as Master Blackwell left, other than the Greenwater Immortal, the rest of the Earth Immortals also turned and left.

Only the Greenwater Immortal stayed behind because she had to explain things to the Five Elements Sect!

Out of the hundred or so people, most also left, but there were still about a dozen who decided to stay and see if any excitement would unfold, to witness whether the Five Elements Sect and the Joyful Sect would end up fighting!

However, to their disappointment, after the Greenwater Immortal bowed with clasped fists to the Sect Master of the Five Elements Sect, Asher Zuck, they both flew southward together.

As for Koen Zuck, he cast a cool glance at the underground ruins before turning and leaving as well.

Everyone was gone, the search had been in vain, nothing was found, no excitement was seen, and so the crowd dispersed!

Anais Dillon and Uriel Arellano, who had been in the secret passageway of the northern cave, had already returned to the Capital City long ago. They couldn’t wait any longer and had gone back to the Capital City after waiting for more than a month. Upon detailed inquiring, they learned that an unexpected event occurred. However, Bryson Campbell had reassigned them to work as waiters in the tavern, continuing their daily lives and keeping an ear out for any news from the ancient ruins every day!

After the experts left the ancient ruins, some wandering lone cultivators and lesser practitioners came to this place to search, too, because it was claimed that a great treasure had emerged. But in the end, they didn’t find the treasure, which led some to believe that it had not yet appeared or that it remained undiscovered.

Time passed, and the location of the ancient ruins saw daily traffic of people coming and going. Even the outskirts were now populated with small merchants and peddlers selling water, food, alcohol, torches, and whatnot.

After another couple of months, winter descended upon the Saint Dragon Continent. The winters on the Saint Dragon Continent were exceptionally short, lasting less than two months—merely a gust of cold winds—and after that surge of air passed, warmth returned as if spring had come again.

Once winter set in at the site of the ancient ruins, people stopped coming entirely, because it was too cold, especially the underground passages. For some reason, during the winter, even urinating could cause one’s ***** to freeze and damage, with chilling winds whistling through the passages.

Bryson Campbell, along with Anais Dillon and Uriel Arellano, also visited this place before the onset of winter. They searched for around seven or eight days but didn’t find any trace of their leader, then the three went back to continue their lives as managers and waiters, resuming their previous routines.

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed, and within this year, many people had visited these ruins. Even some Earth Immortals snuck in, and Koen Zuck came for a second time!

But just like everyone else, they found not a single hair.

Gradually, no one else came, and after another two years, the matter of the ancient ruins was forgotten, replaced by even more explosive news. A group of people had arrived on the Mainland, and each one was an Earth Immortal. They were not from this land; they came from south of Yunnan, having crossed over Thousand Mountains and treacherous terrains to reach the Saint Dragon Continent. At that time, all the foreign Earth Immortals were guests in the imperial palace!

PS: There will be a climax, folks, no need to hurry. The plot is progressing; a big wave of zombies—no, I mean, a big wave of climaxes is about to arrive. The day Yusuf Zuck emerges will be the day he commands the winds and clouds!
