"An Lin, what happened? Where am I? "
Shangguan Yi took a couple of steps back, and a faint blush appeared on her face as she surveyed her surroundings.
An Lin replied with a solemn expression, "This is the Four Nine Immortal Sect!"
"My God, you summoned us to the Four Nine Immortal Sect?" Mo Hai was given a fright.
He was in the middle of a baptism of flames, so why did he suddenly appear here?
"Could it be … that you need our help with something urgent?" Yang Yuan looked at An Lin with a calm expression.
An Lin pointed to the four-colored formation beneath his feet with a resigned expression. "Actually … it wasn't me who summoned you here. It was most likely the four little things in my sea of vital energy …"
"Isn't the sea of vital energy all liquid? What the hell are these little things? "Mo Hai was astonished.
"Well … it's a long story …" An Lin replied.
"Aren't the little things in your sea of vital energy yours? Can they move on their own? Is yours a sea of vital energy or a Small World? "Shangguan Yi was also astonished. She felt like An Lin's sea of vital energy was a fake.
An Lin's lips twitched. "Well … it's an even longer story!"
"Then make it short!" Yang Yuan urged in a panicked voice.
An Lin nodded. "Four little Holy Beasts hatched in my sea of vital energy, and they conspired to summon you here …"
"Gasp …"
Everyone drew a sharp intake of breath.
"Can … can you be more specific?" Mo Hai asked with difficulty.
Holy Beasts were far too far away from them. They were the only beings that transcended beyond this world and stood at the pinnacle of the beast tribe. Even the Vermilion Bird Sect, one of the four great sects of the Kingdom of the Nine States, was only able to develop after being blessed by the Holy Beast, the Vermilion Bird.
An Lin was just about to say something when someone suddenly barged in.
"An Lin! Are you alright?! "
An extremely beautiful woman in a jade dress rushed in with a panicked expression.
"I'm fine. Why are you here, Xiaolan?" An Lin asked.
"I faintly felt a summoning, so I came to check out the situation," Xu Xiaolan explained.
She walked in quickly and took a closer look. When she saw Mo Hai and the others, she was stunned again. Then, she covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Heavens, the things that fell from the sky are you guys? Why are you here? "
"You'll have to ask An Lin about that." Yang Yuan smiled.
"We were summoned here by the four little things in An Lin's sea of vital energy," Shangguan Yi replied.
Xu Xiaolan blinked. "Four little things?"
An Lin explained, "Little Vermillion Bird, Little Black Tortoise, Little White Tiger, and Little Azure Dragon."
Xu Xiaolan's eyes widened. "Has your sea of energy become a zoo?"
An Lin: "…"
The four Holy Beasts within An Lin's body suddenly roared in unison as they unleashed their powers at the same time. The four powers intertwined and triggered some kind of special power.
That power pierced through the sea of vital energy and merged into the four-colored formation beneath An Lin's feet, upon which an even more powerful and ethereal aura suddenly erupted from the formation …
Shangguan Yi and the others stumbled back in fear.
They didn't know where this formation had come from, and they didn't want to be teleported somewhere else for no reason.
It would be a tragedy if they were to encounter danger!
An Lin was not flustered as he calmly looked on at everything unfolding before his eyes. He was invincible now, and he didn't know who could make him cower.
The formation contracted, and the light converged to form an antiquated stone gate.
Beyond the stone gate was a boundless starry sky that struck one with a sense of loneliness.
"Is this … a passageway to a mystic realm?" Yang Yuan exclaimed.
"It's not as simple as opening a passageway to a mystic realm …" A white light flashed through An Lin's eyes as he spoke with a grave expression, "This gate … can connect to the outside world …"
"The outside world? You mean the world of another God of Creation? "Mo Hai asked.
An Lin shook his head. "No … I mean … the world created by the Gods of Creation is like a small box within a big box. However, this gate connects to a world outside of the Tai Chu Continent, which is to say, the world outside of the big box … "
Everyone was astonished upon hearing this.
In their eyes, the Tai Chu Continent was the core world, and all of the other worlds within the Tai Chu Continent were subsidiary spaces of the Tai Chu Continent. As for what the outside world of the Tai Chu Continent was like, they had no information on that.
"Hasn't this world been sealed off by Pangu? Even if it's a loophole in the Spirit Realm, only a God of Creation would be able to force it open, right? "Xu Xiaolan knew a little more, but she still found it difficult to understand.
"All of the Holy Beasts are God of Creation Stage beings, so it's not impossible for all four of them to create a gate that connects to the outside world …" An Lin wasn't all that surprised.
However, the rest of the people silently retreated a certain distance.
The unknown often meant danger.
"This stone gate was created by the four little things in your sea of vital energy?" Xu Xiaolan asked.
An Lin nodded.
Mo Hai was a little nervous. "What do they want?"
"They want us to go in?" An Lin stroked his chin.
Everyone silently retreated a little more upon hearing this. They had already exited the palace where An Lin was cultivating in seclusion.
An Lin: "…"
Xu Xiaolan remained in place beside An Lin, and she clasped a hand over her heart. "I can't help but feel like there's something in this gate that's summoning me …"
"Is it the Vermilion Bird bloodline?" An Lin fell into deep thought.
Xu Xiaolan had only just run over because of this inexplicable summoning power.
"So be it. This gate was created by the four little things in my body, so I'll go in with you …" An Lin said to Xu Xiaolan.
Xu Xiaolan was a little concerned. "But …"
At this moment, a warm, powerful hand had already wrapped itself around her soft, fair hand.
"There are no buts … The opportunity is fleeting, and we don't have time to be cautious." An Lin spoke with a firm expression, "Don't be afraid if we encounter any danger. Don't forget, I'm invincible now!"
Xu Xiaolan looked at An Lin and nodded with a smile at his smug and confident expression. "Alright, let's go in and have a look!"
After that, the two of them held hands and walked into the stone door without looking back.
Shangguan Yi, Mo Hai, and Yang Yuan all sighed with emotion as they watched the two of them disappear into the starry sky …
"They sure are brave. They're still able to forge ahead in the face of such a terrifying unknown." Mo Hai sighed. He was different. He had borrowed this ring from Xiao Lan. Strictly speaking, he was just an innocent bystander, so he would not go.
"An Lin and Xu Xiaolan are very powerful, so they have the confidence to do so. We're not powerful enough, so we should be more cautious," Yang Yuan said in a calm voice.
Shangguan Yi's eyes shimmered with emotion. "It's actually love that has made them braver."
The three of them sighed with emotion, but they didn't regret their decision.
It was too dangerous to go in, so it was better for them to stay put.
A smile appeared on Shangguan Yi's face. "Let's wait here for An Lin and Xu Xiaolan to return."
Her voice had only just fallen.
A piercing light suddenly erupted from the stone gate.
Their rings were activated by the energy, and balls of light enshrouded their bodies.
Yang Yuan's expression shifted. "What?!"
"No!!" Mo Hai felt an irresistible power.
"Crap, it's the power of the stone gate!" Shangguan Yi exclaimed.
All three of their expressions shifted drastically, and before they even had a chance to escape, they were sucked into the stone gate …
