Chapter 2229 - 2229 2219 The Hole

2229: Chapter 2219: The Hole 2229: Chapter 2219: The Hole The immense power terrified everyone around, as the scorching breath was akin to Hellfire, ominously incinerating the inner world of all individuals.

“Quickly take me to that Secret Chamber.”

Long Yan’s pupils suddenly narrowed, this sensation was all too familiar; he had felt it on Zhiyan before, yet even Zhiyan did not possess such an intense flame aura.

If Qing Luo had shown himself, Long Yan wouldn’t be so perturbed, but since the fight began, Qing Luo had not shown his face, thus Long Yan couldn’t help but think more, letting Bai Mu lead him in search of the Secret Chamber.

Seemingly sensing Long Yan’s panic, Bai Mu didn’t dally either, swiftly leading Long Yan towards the Ruins, though finding something within the rubble of the collapsed castle was no easy task.

Bai Mu mobilized everyone to search for the old Secret Chamber, and for a moment, a large swath of Demon Soldiers began splitting up to search, but even with the Demon Soldiers’ capabilities, there were limits—the castle occupied too large an area, just a small door was not easy to find.

“Brother Long, do you know what this is all about?”

Bai Mu forcibly suppressed the panic inside his heart; even the Demon Soldiers felt a wave of discomfort, let alone sensitive beings like Bai Mu and Xing Rou, that bloodline suppression was terrifying indeed.

“I don’t know.”

Long Yan didn’t lie; he just had a bad premonition, but as to what exactly Qing Luo was up to, he had no idea; beside him, Jingzhe subtly shook his head, this battle concerned the fate of the entire inner world, yet after Long Yan killed the Four Great Demon Guards, it became passive again.

“Right, just yesterday, the Corpse King and the zombie hordes on the side of Demon Mountain all disappeared.”

Bai Mu told Long Yan, ever since Long Yan killed a high-stage zombie, Bai Mu had been cautious and had sent people to monitor the side of Demon Mountain, carefully avoiding all zombies, but just yesterday, scouts reported that all the zombies in the mountain were disappearing.

The scouts even investigated deeply and saw no sign of any zombies; normally the side of Demon Mountain, with its ghostly wails and howls, was very suited to the extreme yin apt for zombies, yet now there was utter silence, even the scouts went deep into the old lair of the Corpse King, but still found no zombies.

Long Yan hearing this couldn’t help but ponder; why would the zombies disappear completely clean within a day?

The inner world was only so large, where else could the Corpse King go if not Demon Mountain?

At this moment, Long Yan recalled that old legend; zombies initially came from the Real World into the inner world, maybe the Corpse King took all his subjects to the Real World, then perhaps there might indeed be an Entrance to the Real World in Demon Mountain.

Thinking this, Long Yan felt like a light bulb had switched on; it seemed he didn’t need to go through the Blood Demon Emperor’s territory, perhaps in the lair of the Corpse King there was an exit, Long Yan made up his mind, after the event was over he would definitely check it out.

“Sir, I found it.”

At this moment, a Demon Soldier knelt before everyone, it had found the Underground Passage leading to the Secret Chamber, following the Demon Soldier’s lead, everyone arrived at a section of the Ruins, surrounded by thick rubble—it seemed this Hidden Door was only found after several Demon Soldiers lifted it.

“Will you come down with me?”

Long Yan turned back to look at the three people, after all, the intense aura wasn’t something they could endure, just as Long Yan’s words fell, Jingzhe and the Heavenly Demon City’s City Master both shook their heads, the aura was too terrifying, they were not yet brave enough to go down with Long Yan.

“I’ll go down with you.”

Bai Mu said while looking into Long Yan’s eyes.

He still had some matters to inquire about from Qing Luo, such as whether it was really he who killed his parents, or why Qing Luo would want to kill his own parents.

At first, the passage below was quite small, but once both of them completely went down, they emerged in a luxurious room.

A tiger skin laid on the bed, and a huge deer head was nailed on the wall.

The entire Secret Chamber was dazzling with treasures to the extent that Long Yan felt that there was no need for candles, as these white and yellow items alone could illuminate the whole room.

“The Qin Emperor Mirror is gone.”

Bai Mu said calmly.

The room was only so big, and now there wasn’t anyone in sight.

It seemed they had gotten the wrong place.

However, the disappearance of the Qin Emperor Mirror puzzled Bai Mu.

Long Yan, however, did not speak but instead lightly tapped on the wall, the thick wall making a thumping sound.

Both were pleasantly surprised by this, suggesting that there was more to this Secret Chamber than meets the eye.

“Step back.”

With a fierce punch, Long Yan’s full-strength blow created a large hole in the wall.

The black and menacing cave entrance, like a wild beast choosing its prey, opened its mouth wide at the two.

Given that Long Yan’s original intent was also to kill Qing Luo, there was no need for pleasantries.

From the dungeon ahead, intermittent roars of beasts echoed, adding a layer of horror to this dark area.

Bai Mu took out a flint from his Storage Ring, and the dim flame instantly lit up the surrounding scene.

“Woo…”

Continuous cries came from below.

Neither of the two was intimidated by this momentum.

However, Jingzhe above changed his expression when he heard this sound.

“Let’s go.”

The two followed the stairs down, carefully watching their steps on the floating stairs suspended in the air, because the surrounding area was too dark.

A small misstep could lead to falling, so this slowed down their progress considerably.

“What is this?”

The scene in front of them looked more like the inside of a human body, with a heart above the complex network of blood vessels.

The two moved like two blood cells within these blood vessels.

Long Yan summoned the Lu Xian Sword, like a dagger, and gently drew on the blood vessel.

The extremely sharp Lu Xian Sword immediately made a sizable cut on the frail walls of the blood vessel.

However, the thick inner wall astonishingly recovered to its original state in just a short while, making Bai Mu continuously marvel at this abnormal healing ability.

“Brother Long, which way should we go now?”

For a moment, Bai Mu was unsure, as the blood vessels inside were intricate and complex.

Even those roads in front of them had four or five branches.

“Towards the heart.”

Long Yan closed his eyes, expanding his perceptual range to the maximum.

He instantly located the position of that terrifying breath.

As long as they found the source of this breath, Qing Luo would definitely be there.

After hearing Long Yan’s words, Bai Mu inwardly nodded.

What Long Yan said made sense, so the two of them headed towards the region of the heart.

The complex paths nearly caused them to lose their way, but eventually, they found the location of the heart.

Standing outside, they could feel wave after wave of astonishing breath.

This terrifying feeling almost suffocated Bai Mu.
