After Fenghao and the other two entered the tunnel, what entered their eyes was a pitch-black darkness. It was so dark that they could not even see their fingers if they stretched their hands out. The sounds of the four people advancing continued to reverberate within the tunnel. Even the slight panting sounds could be heard.
The darkness was not an obstacle for the four of them who were all sage-level powerhouses. Fenghao walked in front and took the lead, but he kept looking around the tunnel.
The surrounding stone walls were branded with some strange carvings, which seemed to be narrating something. However, Feng Hao didn't have the time to stop and look at them.
"Feng Hao, are you really a Void Martial?"
Wu Liang followed closely behind Feng Hao. At this moment, Huangfu Wushuang and the others weren't around, so he couldn't help but ask. Originally, he still had some doubts in his heart, but after seeing that Feng Hao could actually control the most terrifying power of Heavenly Punishment, he gradually began to believe that Feng Hao was a Void Martial.
"I don't know." Feng Hao fell silent in the darkness for a moment, then slowly said, "I lost my memories, and I even forgot where I came from. Perhaps only Huangfu Wushuang knows all of this."
"According to the current situation, Huangfu Wushuang must have joined forces with the Daoist temple to hunt you down. Given the Daoist temple's style, they will only be at ease after you are eliminated." Wu Wang continued, "I really don't understand why Huangfu Wushuang also hates you so much."
"Don't ask me, I don't know this woman. She said she wanted to kill me, and then she said she was my wife. Even I don't know who she is." Feng Hao smiled bitterly. Unless he recovered all his memories, he wouldn't be able to remember Huangfu Wushuang's identity. He only vaguely remembered that he had fought with Huangfu Wushuang more than once.
"By the way, what is the Void Martial you speak of?" At this moment, Feng Hao also opened his mouth to ask. Since they met, Li Xiangtian had been talking about the Void Martial. What exactly was the Void Martial? Feng Hao was also very curious.
"Don't you know about the prophecy?" Wu Liang was bewildered. However, he soon realized that Feng Hao wasn't from the True Martial Continent. Moreover, he had also lost his memories. It would be strange if he knew about the prophecy.
"Prophecy? What does that have to do with me?" Feng Hao paused for a moment.
Soon after, Wu Liang told Feng Hao everything about the prophecy in full detail. Feng Hao had more or less understood the prophecy. It turned out that he was Xu Wu in the prophecy. His appearance had led to the beginning of chaos in the True Martial Continent.
"The descent of True Martial and the appearance of Hongmeng. Tsk tsk, if Xu Wu is talking about me, then Hongmeng must be Little Yu." Feng Hao also laughed. However, suspicions arose in his heart. Could it be that he really was Xu Wu?
"Because of the difference in philosophy, in the eyes of the Taoist Faction, as Xu Wu, you are the beginning of all chaos in the True Martial Continent. If you are allowed to exist, I'm afraid that the last point of the prophecy will be verified. The True Martial Continent will be destroyed."
Wu Liang shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "This is also the reason why the Taoist Faction wants you to die. Our Academy doesn't even bat an eye at them. The ancestors of the Academy have always been waiting for this prophecy to come true. Everyone in the Academy hopes to leave the True Martial Continent and return to the world that truly belongs to us."
Feng Hao remained silent. He was very clear about the hidden meaning behind Wu Liang's words. Wu Liang hoped that Feng Hao would become a member of the Academy. After all, only the Academy could contend against the Taoist Faction.
He hesitated in his heart, but he didn't know why he didn't like being restricted. He even had a premonition that one day, he would leave the True Martial Continent.
When he heard Feng Hao's silence, Wu Liang seemed to have guessed the hesitation in Feng Hao's heart. He softly said, "Don't worry, Feng Hao. If you join the Academy, you will definitely not be forced. If you are willing, you can become a guest of the Academy. You don't need to be responsible for the affairs of the Academy. What do you think?"
This condition was already very lenient. As long as Feng Hao agreed to join the Academy, the goal of the Academy's ancestors could be achieved. They could leave the True Martial Continent and return to the world that belonged to them.
Because the Divine Body of Hongmeng had already been taken away by the Taoist Faction, the Academy's Eldest Senior Brother had always believed that Xu Wu was more important. Therefore, during the years that Feng Hao had disappeared, he had never given up on searching for Xu Wu.
"Alright, I agree. However, if I want to leave one day, you guys can't stop me." Feng Hao was silent for a while, before he nodded his head in agreement. After all, it was better to stay here. If he left, he would have to face the entire Taoist Faction. He was naturally unable to contend against the entire Taoist Faction alone. Therefore, it was not a bad choice to find a backer.
"Alright, it's a deal. I believe that Eldest Senior Brother will be very happy to see you." When Wu Liang and the other two heard Feng Hao's agreement, they immediately felt a burst of wild joy in their hearts. This trip had not been in vain. At the very least, they had found Xu Wu and successfully brought him into the Academy.
"Even if you want to leave at that time, I'm afraid that we won't be able to stop you." Wu Liang also teased. These words were not wrong. With Feng Hao's cultivation, it was likely that no one in the entire Academy could stop him other than Eldest Senior Brother.
When they heard Wu Liang's words, Feng Hao and Wu Wang also laughed softly. The oppressive atmosphere in the dark tunnel was instantly swept away. However, at this moment, a ray of light appeared in front of everyone in the dark tunnel.
"The exit is up ahead." Wu Liang was delighted. However, at this moment, strange laughter from the evil thoughts suddenly rang out in the tunnel. It was especially ear-piercing in the spacious tunnel.
"Crap, the evil thoughts have caught up." Wu Wang's expression instantly turned dark. The long spear in his hand started to blossom with a fiery-red divine light, instantly illuminating the entire tunnel. With the help of this light, the others also took the opportunity to clearly see what was behind them.
At this moment, even Fenghao's face was filled with shock. This was because, through the fiery red divine light, he, the Immeasurable Being and the other fighters could see an innumerable number of densely packed black figures rapidly approaching them from behind. The scarlet red eyes of every single black figure were that distinct.
"Damn, this number is too frightening." Wu Liang could not help but curse. His eyes widened as he stared closely at the black figures behind him. His expression became extremely unnatural. Why were there so many evil thoughts in this remnant?
