Chapter 514: Mysterious Land

Passing through the massive stone gate.

What met the eyes was a colossal palace.

But unlike the underground palace corridors outside, the walls here emitted a yellow light, illuminating the surroundings…

Xiao Fan looked around; the height here was terrifying, at least nearly ten thousand zhang high.

After entering, he did not see Qiao Rong or the others…

"They should be inside," Xiao Fan murmured, and at that moment, the massive stone gate behind him closed with a loud "boom."

"Am I trapped too?!"

Xiao Fan let out a breath, but fortunately, he had Wanxiang; if he wanted to leave, he could do so at any time.

What he had to do now was find Qiao Rong and Wu Qingyan, then take them away.

It could be considered returning a favor to Elder Qiao.

Xiao Fan entered; there were no fluctuations of spiritual energy within the stone gate.

"It's somewhat like the Sacred Pill Tower," Xiao Fan said to himself, feeling that this place was like the black tower, devoid of any spiritual energy.

Xiao Fan went deeper step by step, observing his surroundings at the same time…

The surrounding walls were all yellow; there were no ancient paintings carved like in the palace corridors, yet they constantly emitted a yellow light.

"It's quite miraculous…"

Spiritual energy or certain gemstones, like night-luminescent pearls, could also release light continuously.

But this underground palace had existed for at least ten thousand years…

What kind of thing could remain incorruptible for ten thousand years?

And continuously release light at the same time?

Clearly, even things like night-luminescent pearls couldn't possibly do that…

The Golden-Haired Lion was shivering, following closely behind Xiao Fan, its two hind legs trembling…

Xiao Fan had no time to pay it any mind; he didn't dare to speed up and could only move forward with caution…

After all, according to Qiao Rong, this place was a great tomb, and there could be danger at any moment.

Xiao Fan didn't know how long he had walked, but he finally reached the end, and what appeared before him were three passages…

"Three paths?"

Xiao Fan looked around; he tried using a communication jade slip, but he couldn't contact Qiao Rong at all.

Xiao Fan let out a breath and walked toward the middle one.

Little Gold followed behind; man and beast moved forward…

These three passages weren't too large, but they weren't small either.

Similarly…

After entering, the surrounding walls also emitted yellow light, illuminating the area…

Xiao Fan moved forward step by step…

After walking forward for half an hour…

"Hmm?!"

Xiao Fan was suddenly stunned because in the passage ahead, he saw two corpses, fresh corpses…

There was still fresh blood on the ground here, proving that these two corpses had only just died.

Xiao Fan approached; he had an impression of these two people.

"People from the Treasure Pavilion…"

The pupils of these two corpses were constricted, looking as if they had been terribly frightened before death, and their limbs were all intact; only a hole had appeared in their abdominal Dantian, and their Golden Cores were shattered…

Xiao Fan let out a breath and continued forward with the shivering Little Gold…

At the same time, he slightly quickened his pace, his brow furrowed…

There was danger in here; he had to hurry and take Qiao Rong and the others away.

Another hour passed…

Xiao Fan remained cautious of his surroundings; the fact that people had died proved that there was definitely danger here he didn't know about.

A light emerged from ahead…

"This is…"

This light was white, unlike the yellow light around them.

Xiao Fan quickened his pace with Little Gold…

The two of them exited the tunnel, and the scene that followed gave Xiao Fan a shock…

"This… how can this be!"

This place was like a Small World, with white clouds in the sky and a bright sun hanging there, constantly emitting warm sunlight…

And on the ground, there were actually all kinds of plants; the main thing was that there was actually dense spiritual energy around…

"This is a tomb?!"

Xiao Fan felt like he was hallucinating.

"Scary… scared…" Little Gold spoke with a trembling voice in human language…

It was too eerie; it was clearly a tomb, yet it ended up looking like a paradise.

This sense of discordance made it difficult for Xiao Fan to adapt for a moment.

Xiao Fan led Little Gold out of the passage and stepped into this Small World…

He could feel that the temperature emitted by the sun in the sky was real.

And these plants on the ground were also real.

Xiao Fan wanted to fly up to see how high this place was.

"Hmm?!"

As it turned out, Xiao Fan found that he was actually unable to take flight…

"This… my spiritual energy?!"

Xiao Fan was shocked; he found that his spiritual energy was all gone.

He tried to circulate his Cultivation Technique, but it was completely useless; he found that his own spiritual energy had been sealed, and he couldn't feel it at all.

At this moment, he was just like a Mortal.

"When did it start… from when I entered the stone gate or when I entered this area…"

Xiao Fan was shocked; in a strange environment full of eerie danger, he had actually lost his spiritual energy…

For him, this was disastrous news!

Xiao Fan looked at Little Gold: "See if you can mobilize your own spiritual energy…"

"Awoo…"

Little Gold gave a cry, yet there was no reaction at all.

"No… my… spiritual energy… is gone…"

Little Gold spoke stutteringly; its situation was the same as Xiao Fan's, unable to mobilize spiritual energy.

Xiao Fan let out a breath and clenched his fists.

"Physical Body strength is still there; I have the strength of the Body Tempering Realm?"

Xiao Fan's face was ashen; he hadn't found Qiao Rong, and instead, he was facing such a perilous situation.
