“Hu Chi!” Fu
Qian Kun's breathing became heavy once again.
The words of the big black cat clearly indicated that there was indeed a Holy Crystal within this spatial seal, but it was somewhere else.
“No matter, regardless of whether this Holy Crystal is real or not, now that Qin Chen is inside, let's make a trip and see what the Piao Miao Palace is really up to?”
Fu Qian Kun snorted coldly.
After all, they came to rescue Qin Chen and disrupt the Piao Miao Palace's plans. It didn’t matter if the Holy Crystal was real or not; they had to break into this spatial passage.
“You few, follow me, the big cat. This spatial passage seems like just an entrance, but in reality, the spatial power within is very chaotic. It is likely a random passage. If you all separate too far, it’s very possible you will be teleported to different places,” the big black cat warned.
From beginning to end, it was only hidden in the void, not truly appearing.
Swish! Swish!
Streams of light flickered up, and under the lead of the big black cat, everyone followed the remaining powerful beings and rushed into the spatial passage.
Buzz!
As the spatial passage flashed, the group instantly disappeared.
“Hmm?”
At the moment Fu Qian Kun and the others entered the passage, a thousand miles away in a sea of thunder, an old man’s gaze flickered, hurriedly looking toward the passage.
Before him, there was a compass that suddenly jumped when Fu Qian Kun and the others entered the passage.
“This Spirit Probe Compass suddenly jumped, could it be that some expert has barged in?”
The old man’s eyelids twitched; it was Yuan Tianhuan from the Martial Competition.
He was following Shangguan Xi'er’s orders to guard this place, using the Spirit Probe Compass to detect powerful beings entering the spatial seal.
Although the Empress had instructed to attract all the strong beings from Thunder City and the surrounding region, even those in the Two Heavens of Martial Domain, truly fearsome experts still needed to be paid extra attention to avoid any oversight in the plan.
“Yuan Tianhuan, have you discovered anything?”
At that moment, a cold voice sounded, and a figure instantly appeared beside Yuan Tianhuan; it was Shangguan Gufeng, who asked indifferently.
She was sent here to oversee in case any accidents occurred.
“Greetings, Lord Shangguan Gufeng. Just now, this Spirit Probe Compass suddenly jumped, so I…” Yuan Tianhuan hurriedly replied.
“Oh?” Shangguan Gufeng frowned.
To make the Spirit Probe Compass jump, the expert must at least be a peak Martial God. After all, in Shangguan Gufeng's eyes, even great Martial Gods were not worthy of concern; only peak Martial Gods could earn their attention.
“Who was it? Did you see clearly?”
“This…”
Yuan Tianhuan broke into a cold sweat, tremblingly said, “I didn’t notice anything unusual.”
That was indeed the case; earlier, he had been very careful to observe the entrance without distraction, yet he hadn’t seen anyone worth noting.
With the cultivation levels of Fu Qian Kun, Mo Ka La, and the others, if they deliberately concealed themselves, how could Yuan Tianhuan have noticed?
But Shangguan Gufeng's gaze turned sharp, a cold killing intent surged: “Are you sure you didn’t discover anything unusual? Or are you just being lazy?”
“I truly didn’t notice anything unusual.”
Yuan Tianhuan was trembling, sweat pouring down, his clothes soaked through. In front of Shangguan Gufeng, he felt an unprecedented pressure, his heart racing as if it might explode.
Just then, the Spirit Probe Compass jumped again, capturing Shangguan Gufeng's attention.
Boom!
A terrifying aura appeared at the mouth of the passage.
It was an old man with graying hair and beard, his gaze indifferent, staring at the passage ahead, astonished.
Shangguan Gufeng's expression changed in shock, “The Extreme Mirror Pill Emperor from the Alchemy Pavilion, how could this be possible?”
Her heart trembled.
The Extreme Mirror Pill Emperor was a long-time senior elder of the Alchemy Pavilion, currently the brother of the Pavilion Master. Over three hundred years ago, he was a powerful expert of the Pill Emperor level, and for the last hundred years, he had faded from public view without a trace. It was rumored that he had already perished.
