431: Dragon Flame Cave
Hearing the incomparably majestic Dragon Roar, Yang Lingchen couldn't help but consider retreating.
After hesitating for a moment, he ultimately decided to stay.
Since he was already here, and there were so many Heavenly Net Realm experts present, leaving just like this made Yang Lingchen feel somewhat unwilling.
The Dragon Roar ceased for a moment, and the Heavenly Net Realm experts present stood cautiously at the entrance of the Longyan Cave.
At this moment, everyone present was hesitating; no one dared to be the first to enter the cave. If a Divine Dragon truly existed inside, the first person to enter would definitely be cannon fodder.
"What a coincidence! I never expected to run into friends from the Longevity Cult and the Yunhai Sect here."
Just then, a handsome, extraordinary youth with a transcendent Aura descended from the sky, landing at the entrance of the Longyan Cave.
The person who arrived was none other than Tan Shaodu, the Saint of Wentian Palace.
This was the very person who had nearly killed Yang Lingchen with a single sword strike back in the Wentian Mountain Range.
"You bastard! I'll kill you someday." Looking at his enemy before him, a cold killing intent rose in Yang Lingchen's heart.
Following Tan Shaodu's appearance, several more Wentian Palace Core Disciples quickly appeared outside the Longyan Cave.
The cultivation levels of these Wentian Palace Core Disciples ranged from the Heavenly Net Realm Sixth Layer to the Heavenly Net Realm Ninth Layer.
"Tan Shaodu, why are you here?" From the Yunhai Sect's direction, a cold-Auraed youth with sharp eyes stepped forward.
This cold-Auraed youth was precisely Baili Canglong, the Saint of the Yunhai Sect.
"Baili Canglong, if your Yunhai Sect can come, why can't my Wentian Palace?" Tan Shaodu asked.
"Tan Shaodu, since you're here, why don't you lead the way?"
From the Longevity Cult's direction, a tall, straight youth whose eyes held a hint of wickedness stepped forward.
This wicked youth was Shangguan Yuntian, the Young Cult Master of the Longevity Cult.
"Shangguan Yuntian, I feel ashamed to admit that my strength is inferior to yours. This heavy responsibility of leading the way must fall to you to convince everyone! Baili Canglong, what do you think?"
Tan Shaodu laughed heartily, an imperceptible killing intent flashing in his eyes.
Under the current circumstances, Tan Shaodu naturally didn't want to be the first one to stick his neck out.
After all, he had heard that majestic Dragon Roar from afar. Even with his strength at the Heavenly Net Realm Ninth Layer Peak, encountering a Divine Dragon would surely mean death!
"I think there is some truth to what Tan Shaodu said. Shangguan Yuntian, haven't you always claimed to be invincible below the Profound Venerable stage? It seems this heavy task of leading really must belong to you."
Baili Canglong curled his lips into an amused smile.
"Since you two want to be timid cowards, what harm is there in This Young Master taking the lead?"
Shangguan Yuntian sneered coldly. Immediately, he pointed toward several Void Spirit Realm Cultivators not far away and said, "You, you, and you, come over."
"Holy crap! This is truly a case of sitting at home and having trouble fall from the sky! Who did I offend?"
Yang Lingchen, who was sitting not far away, had a dumbfounded expression. He hadn't expected Shangguan Yuntian to point at him.
If he tried to run now, the other party would likely kill him instantly.
Yang Lingchen knew that with his current cultivation level, he had no chance of escaping in front of Heavenly Net Realm Peak experts.
Helplessly, he could only obediently walk up to Shangguan Yuntian.
"The few of you, lead the way for This Young Master. After the task is complete, This Young Master will reward you handsomely." Shangguan Yuntian looked utterly heroic, essentially drawing a big empty promise.
"Fuck! If you want me to scout the path, just say so directly. Do you have to pretend to be so righteous?" Yang Lingchen cursed inwardly.
Subsequently, under Shangguan Yuntian's coercion, Yang Lingchen and two other Void Spirit Realm Cultivators walked into the Longyan Cave.
Shangguan Yuntian, Tan Shaodu, and Baili Canglong followed closely behind, trailed by the people from the Three Major Sects.
After entering the Longyan Cave, Yang Lingchen clearly felt a chilling, bone-piercing Aura, an Aura that hadn't been present during the day.
"Hurry up." Shangguan Yuntian urged.
Just then, terrifying sounds of Dragon Roars rang out again.
"Could there really be a Dragon God Legacy here?" A glint flashed in Shangguan Yuntian's eyes.
Everyone moved quickly, and soon they reached the end of the Longyan Cave.
"Strange, where is that Dragon Roar coming from?" A look of confusion flashed in Tan Shaodu's eyes.
"The Dragon Roar must be caused by some kind of Formation. There is definitely a Dragon God Legacy inside here. Everyone, search carefully; perhaps a Secret Passage is hidden here." Baili Canglong said.
"What you said makes sense. Everyone split up and search." Shangguan Yuntian said.
Yang Lingchen cautiously explored the stone walls of the Longyan Cave.
Just then, a golden light flashed, and a Stone Door suddenly appeared not far from him.
This strange phenomenon instantly caught everyone's attention.
"Kid, go in and take a look." Tan Shaodu winked at Yang Lingchen, signaling him to enter first.
"This...?"
A look of hesitation flashed in Yang Lingchen's eyes. Facing this situation, how could he dare to just rush in? Heaven knows what dangers awaited him inside the Stone Door.
"Go in. If you say one more word, don't blame This Young Master for being impolite." Tan Shaodu looked coldly at Yang Lingchen.
"Hoo...!"
Yang Lingchen took a deep breath, then gritted his teeth and walked toward the Stone Door.
Now that things had reached this point, he had no retreat.
"Buzz...!"
Following the sound of buzzing, a golden light flashed and disappeared, and Yang Lingchen's figure vanished instantly without a trace.
"You, go try it too." Tan Shaodu pointed at another Void Spirit Realm Cultivator who was scouting the path.
When this Void Spirit Realm Cultivator saw Tan Shaodu pointing at him, his legs couldn't help but tremble in fear.
"Hurry up and go in for This Young Master."
But under Tan Shaodu's threat, he still slowly walked toward the Stone Door.
After this Void Spirit Realm Cultivator entered the Stone Door, another golden light flashed, and that Void Spirit Realm Cultivator also vanished without a trace, just like Yang Lingchen.
"Ah... ah... ah...!"
Just then, a horrific scream pierced out from inside the Stone Door.
Instantly, everyone present was dumbfounded, and no one dared to approach the Stone Door by even half a step.
After all, neither of the two people who went in had come out yet, and one had clearly met with disaster.
At this point, who would dare to enter? Heaven knows what the situation inside was. If they went in and couldn't come out, that would be troublesome.
After a long while, Shangguan Yuntian asked, "What do we do now?"
Looking at the pitch-black scene inside the Stone Door, Baili Canglong frowned and said, "If you guys want to go in, then go ahead! This Young Master is still young, so I won't join you in risking my life."
Having spoken, Baili Canglong and Snow Heartless led the people of the Yunhai Sect out of the Longyan Cave.
Seeing Baili Canglong leave, Shangguan Yuntian and Summer First Snow also led the people of the Longevity Cult out of the Longyan Cave.
"Saint, what should we do?" A Wentian Palace Core Disciple looked toward Tan Shaodu.
"Let's go out too!" Tan Shaodu said after pondering for a moment.
Currently, a chilling Aura emanated from inside this Stone Door, and it was pitch black inside. If they rashly entered, they might never be able to come out again.
Subsequently, the group from Wentian Palace also followed Tan Shaodu out.
Meanwhile, Yang Lingchen was exploring a Mysterious Space.
Along the way, he encountered various Mechanisms and Traps. Fortunately, he was skilled at breaking Formations and had some research into Mechanisms and Traps, otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died.
At the same time, along the way, Yang Lingchen found many skeletons, some of which were relatively fresh corpses, likely people who had vanished while exploring the Longyan Cave a few days ago.
Just then, Yang Lingchen arrived at a Magnificent Hall.
In the center of the hall lay an enormous skeleton, which emitted a chilling Aura.
Looking at it from afar gave off an invisible sense of oppression. If Yang Lingchen's will hadn't been firm, he might truly have been forced to his knees... To be continued!
