There were all kinds of tremors outside the stone house. The ground kept cracking, and there was almost no place to stand. Some people fell into the cracks because they could not dodge in time.
Once someone died, the crowd got even more panicked. The stone house beside them was their last hope of survival, so many people wanted to get inside. Who knew…
“Ah…” The few people who led the way into the stone house were rebounded by a powerful force. Things did not end there. Their center of gravity was unstable due to the impact, and there were huge cracks everywhere on the ground. They all fell inside.
With the lesson of those few, the others did not dare to barge in anymore. They stayed on the remaining ground in helplessness, praying for the blessings of the heavens.
Yi Fentian suddenly said, “Don’t expect Ye Jiushang to save you. Do you see that? A protective barrier has been set up outside that stone house. Apart from a select few, no one else can enter. Ye Jiushang doesn’t care about our lives at all. Why must you place your hopes on him?”
His words had a huge impact. The people became panicked, afraid, and desperate.
Bai Han and Lian Fangcheng did not say anything. They just listened to Yi Fentian, feeling that he made sense.
However, Xue Hanxi reprimanded him, “Young Master Yi, please understand the situation before you speak. We’re not related to Ye Jiushang, and the time we came to this place is different. Everyone is independent. If you want to live, you have to rely on yourself. Don’t always think that others will save you. When you encounter danger, if you want to live, rely on your own ability. No one will be responsible for your lives.”
“Xue Hanxi, I was just telling the truth. Is that wrong?”
“There’s nothing wrong with telling the truth, but are you telling the truth?”
“You…”
Yi Fentian wanted to continue arguing with Xue Hanxi, but another intense tremor stopped their conversation. The cracks increased, and the intact ground became a valuable safe haven. In order to survive, many people had no choice but to scatter and jump to another piece of land.
But this way, everyone would disperse, and the possibility of death would be very high. If those skeleton soldiers crawled out of the ground, they would definitely die.
Xue Fanxin naturally knew that the situation outside was bad. People from the four great clans were constantly dying, but in the face of such a natural crisis, she was helpless. Those who were capable could not do anything either.
“Little white tiger, do you know how to resolve the danger outside? If you don’t think of a way, those people outside will probably die.”
“Awroo… awroo…” The little white tiger called out a few times.
Little Lei immediately translated, “It said that unless Master absorbs that power, the situation will only worsen. This is the tomb in the Spacetime Emperor’s tomb. The black light that entered Master’s body just now is the core power that supports this place. Once it is gone, this tomb will cease to exist.”
“In other words, we can’t do anything?”
“Awroo, awroo…”
Little Lei continued to translate. “There is a way. It’s that stone tablet.”
“What’s wrong with the stone tablet?”
Didn’t that stone tablet shatter? Why was the little white tiger still talking about it?
