Chapter 788: Chapter 773 Danger Approaches
The Nine Major Forces acted separately, each choosing an entrance to enter, and through the Sound Transmission Jade Tokens in their hands, they could seek help within a certain range.
Under the leadership of the Grand Elder of the Main Hall from Taiyi Palace, they charged into the entrance from the most western channel.
As Xiao Ye entered the passage, he immediately felt a sudden darkness envelop his vision, and the continuous sound of waves that filled his ears also disappeared.
When Xiao Ye felt the light restore a bit and his feet stepped on solid ground, he couldn’t help but look around and was immediately shocked.
At this moment, he and the Martial Artists from Taiyi Palace were in a massive Underground Palace, where the end could not be seen at a glance.
This huge Underground Palace was filled with a desolate and ancient aura, as if it had been floating through the ages for a long time.
What was most astonishing was that the walls of the Underground Palace could emit a hazy glow, brightening the surroundings enough that everyone could clearly see things, though not comparable to the outside world.
Moreover, in this Underground Palace, there was the movement of air, and the breeze that hit their faces carried strands of Yin Qi, whistling past everyone as if countless torturous souls were wailing, causing Xiao Ye to involuntarily shiver.
This place really had a bizarrely eerie feeling, both in atmosphere and origin.
“Everyone heighten your alertness, do not take it lightly; after all, this is the Ultimate Palace’s territory, but no one knows what might happen. If a severe danger arises, we Elders might not have time to save you,” said the Grand Elder of the Main Hall with a commanding voice.
The eighteen Devilish Disciples from Taiyi Palace nodded in agreement.
“Xiao Ye, I can already sense there might be a very terrifying crisis here; this mission is probably not simple. You must stay with me at all times and not wander off, understand?” Elder Yang quietly conveyed through the power of King Martial.
Xiao Ye was slightly stunned. This content belongs to NoveI(F)ire.net
Elder Yang could sense danger?
Why was it that even the Grand Elder from the Main Hall didn’t sense it?
And why did Elder Yang use the power of King Martial to communicate?
For a moment, Xiao Ye was utterly confused, but he still nodded.
After all, Elder Yang would not harm him.
However, due to Elder Yang’s words, Xiao Ye became somewhat nervously tense.
Following this, a group led by ten Law Enforcement Elders from the Holy Palace began to explore the vast Underground Palace.
Elder Yang did not walk at the front but stayed by Xiao Ye’s side, evoking envy from other Devilish Disciples.
Just like the Grand Elder from the Main Hall said, if a terrifying danger occurred, these Elders might not have time to rescue them. After all, there were ten Law Enforcement Elders from the Main Hall and eighteen Devilish Disciples.
If a grave danger happened, who would these Law Enforcement Elders save first?
Yet, Elder Yang was constantly by Xiao Ye’s side, how could they not be envious?
Moreover, seeing Elder Yang’s actions, even the Law Enforcement Elders from the Main Hall seemed to consent tacitly.
This made the Devilish Disciples from the Main Hall realize the deep regard Holy Palace had for Xiao Ye.
Even if there was no Elder Yang, should any danger arise, the Law Enforcement Elders from the Main Hall were sure to rescue Xiao Ye first.
The Martial Artists from Taiyi Palace were now positioned at the most western edge of the entire Underground Palace.
They stood on solid ground, formed a formation, and slowly walked forward.
Xiao Ye looked around and saw that his current location was like a barren wasteland; nothing was around except for the walls emitting a hazy light that shone towards them.
The footsteps of the crowd echoed nonstop in the underground palace, filled with desolation and loneliness.
They had been walking for half an hour and had not seen any living creatures or objects.
The crowd was starting to get a little impatient.
Although they were not flying, they were still powerful martial artists and geniuses, naturally walking at a fast pace.
Yet they had been walking for such a long time and still hadn’t left this area.
“How big exactly is this underground palace?” Xiao Ye’s face was filled with shock, and he instinctively looked towards Elder Yang beside him, suddenly slightly stunned.
Because at this moment, Elder Yang’s face was filled with a solemn expression, as if he had sensed some danger.
Xiao Ye then looked towards the ten Law Enforcement Elders ahead and immediately noticed that these elders, like Elder Yang, had progressively more solemn expressions.
The atmosphere in the area became increasingly eerie.
“Could there be danger here!”
A glint flashed in Xiao Ye’s eyes; his hand hovered near the Space Ring.
Should a formidable crisis truly arise, he would not hesitate to draw the Xiao Blade and sweep away all in his path.
From the start of this mission, Xiao Ye had noticed some unusual silence here.
In the blink of an eye, the crowd walked forward for another half an hour.
At this point, the Yin Wind in the air howled even more fiercely and louder.
Xiao Ye could even feel the goosebumps on his skin; his body was shaking as if invisible ghosts were quietly following him.
Little White in Xiao Ye’s arms also popped its head out, becoming restless and anxious, looking around with its bright, anxious eyes.
“What, you sense a danger getting closer?”
Xiao Ye was startled by the meaning in Little White’s cries.
Why had even Little White sensed danger, yet these Elders didn’t warn them?
He hurriedly looked at these elders again and found their expressions had changed from solemnity to being wooden and vacant.
They mechanically moved their feet forward, as if something ahead was summoning them.
Xiao Ye reached out to grab Elder Yang’s robe.
His hand had just neared Elder Yang when a terrifying force repelled it, preventing him from getting close.
And Elder Yang, as if he hadn’t heard Xiao Ye’s call, continued to mechanically step forward.
The other seventeen Devilish Disciples also reacted and tried to grab the Law Enforcement Elders, but like Xiao Ye, were all repelled.
