Chapter 575: Chapter 575: Forbidden Area or Trap? _1

"Do you guys think you are stronger than they were and want to compete with me for the Celestial Forbidden Grounds?"

Hearing this, everyone’s face changed.

No one dared to raise any objections, and they all left the Celestial Forbidden Grounds with solemn faces.

Only Lin Haifeng stood still, with no movement.

He looked at Ning Fan with a troubled expression, uncertain what he was thinking.

"It seems you are preparing to challenge me?"

Ning Fan frowned slightly as he looked toward Lin Haifeng.

But just as he finished speaking, the ground beneath them suddenly began to shake.

"The Formation is activating again? Damn it!"

Ning Fan’s expression suddenly changed.

He grabbed Shuang’er and Huo Erba and rushed out of the Celestial Forbidden Grounds as fast as he could.

But he was still a step too late, a faint light screen had already enveloped the entire Celestial Forbidden Grounds.

Lin Haifeng also rushed to Ning Fan’s side, looking at the formation in front of him with a hint of regret in his eyes.

If he had left earlier, he wouldn’t have been trapped here.

At this moment, the Great Grandmasters outside the Celestial Forbidden Grounds were also shocked, then soon revealed mocking smiles.

"Ning Fan, oh Ning Fan, despite your unmatched strength among Great Grandmasters, now you are also trapped inside the Celestial Forbidden Grounds!"

"The Formation of the Celestial Forbidden Grounds cannot be shaken by even Great Grandmasters; we can only wait for it to deactivate on its own."

"It’s been a full hundred years since the last time the Formation deactivated, and it will be another hundred years before it deactivates again."

"I wonder if you have the strength to survive a hundred years within these Celestial Forbidden Grounds? Hahaha!"

The White Witch Sect’s powerhouses mocked Ning Fan, venting the anger they felt from being driven out by Ning Fan earlier.

Elder Kong also laughed and said, "A hundred years later, he will turn into nothing but a pile of dry bones, indistinguishable from those other skeletons!"

"Not to mention whether the food and water inside these Celestial Forbidden Grounds can sustain him that long, it’s even unknown whether he can live to be a hundred years old!"

"Ning Fan, when you drove us out earlier, did you ever think of the present situation?"

The powerhouses felt immense relief at this moment, never having thought that Ning Fan driving them out would actually save their lives.

The Celestial Forbidden Grounds has always been a trap; anyone who enters it ends up trapped until they die!

The scattered skeletons are the remains of those who entered and eventually died trapped within!

"Hahahaha! Everyone disperse; we’ll come back to collect their bodies in a hundred years!"

"The Celestial Forbidden Grounds have closed; there’s no point in staying here any longer. Everyone disperse!"

"Let’s go. All these treasures and chances for cultivation, in the end, turned out to be nothing. It’s better to go back and focus on our cultivation."

One after another, the powerhouses laughed and left, not forgetting to mock Ning Fan and the others as they departed.

Inside the Celestial Forbidden Grounds, Ning Fan surveyed the Formation barrier before him, his gaze growing more solemn.

"A mere Formation thinks it can trap us to death? Dream on!"

"Open up!"

Shuang’er roared angrily, her fist slamming fiercely against the barrier.

Her all-out punch only made the light screen tremble slightly, with no sign of it shattering.

Shuang’er’s face changed, and she called Huo Erba over to join her in striking the light screen again.

It was a pity that neither Shuang’er’s Spiritual Power attacks nor Huo Erba’s formidable physical blows could make the light screen budge.

"Stand back!"

Ning Fan suddenly spoke, and Shuang’er and Huo Erba immediately moved aside.

Lin Haifeng knew Ning Fan was about to make his move and wisely backed away as well.

Vast Spiritual Power surged from within Ning Fan, all of it funneling into his right hand.

Ning Fan then clenched his right fist and smashed it toward the light screen.

The force contained in this punch even caused the ground beneath Ning Fan’s feet to crack, with fissures spreading in all directions like a spider’s web.

"Boom!"

A massive booming noise erupted, shaking the ground violently.

Even Shuang’er and Huo Erba, due to the shockwave from the punch, were forced to retreat more than ten steps before they could steady themselves.

Even Lin Haifeng, as a Great Grandmaster himself, staggered back five steps at that moment!

At this instant, everyone watched the light screen with anticipation.

But the expected shattering of the light screen did not occur.

The light screen remained intact as before, seemingly unaffected by Ning Fan’s punch just now.

"Split the Heavens!"

Ning Fan murmured and the Jadestone Mini-sword shot out of his hand.

Enveloped with surging Spiritual Power, it struck against the light screen.

Everyone’s hopes rose again, but the next moment, their expectations fell flat.

The Jadestone Mini-sword also failed to affect the light screen in any way.

Ning Fan’s brow furrowed deeply, his eyes full of seriousness.

The strength of the light screen had surpassed his imagination; two full-powered strikes had failed to affect it.

Taking a deep breath, Ning Fan calmed his turbulent Spiritual Power.

"With our power, we definitely cannot break this Formation; let’s explore the inside of the Celestial Forbidden Grounds. Perhaps we can find a way out," Ning Fan said, looking towards the others with a solemn voice.

Without objection, the three followed Ning Fan as they ventured deeper into the Celestial Forbidden Grounds.

As they delved deeper, a rich fragrance of herbs began to permeate the air.
