The sharp gaze passed through the Earth Turning Dragon Worm caused Ling Dong and Bai Han to feel a chill in their hearts.
Although Ling Dong had once used a forbidden technique to kill an existence who was half a step into the Heavenly Cycle Righteous God realm, Ling Dong still did not dare to look directly at the terrifying feeling of being scanned by an existence who was half a step into the Heavenly Cycle Righteous God realm at such a close distance.
What happened next frightened Ling Dong, Bai Han, and Old Hai even more. The old man turned his head to look at the situation at the top of the mountain and seemed to have noticed something unusual. His eyes flashed as he suddenly stood up and turned around, sweeping his gaze towards the top of the mountain.
Perhaps it had sensed the old man's sharp gaze, but the squirming shadow slowly came to a stop and became one with the brown mountain rock. It didn't dare to move at all.
Even though the shadow had stopped, the old man was still looking in this direction suspiciously. His body moved slightly as if he was about to step forward to check.
The old man's slight movement scared everyone hiding in the Residence of Ten Thousand Stars out of their wits. As long as this existence that was half a step into the Zhou Tian Righteous God realm looked closely, they would definitely be able to find the shadow.
They had snuck in right under the noses of these old fellows, who were still fighting to the death for this qualification. As long as they were discovered, they would immediately become public enemies and be annihilated into dregs.
While everyone was panicking, Ling Dong's thoughts suddenly fell on the Earth Turning Dragon Worm that his Divine Sense was attached to. His heart stirred as he suddenly had an idea.
"Quick, quickly disperse the Divine Sense attached to that Earth Turning Dragon Worm, Old Hai!" Ling Dong pointed to the Earth Turning Dragon Worm and reminded them.
Even if the cultivators here weren't extremely smart, their reactions weren't bad. As soon as Ling Dong said this, Old Hai suddenly understood what Ling Dong wanted him to do.
The moment everyone withdrew their Divine Sense, Old Hai gave a slight command. The Earth Turning Dragon Earthworm that was quietly hidden in the soil with only its head sticking out gently jumped up and carried a small piece of gravel with it.
With the old man's concentration and his half-step Heavenly Cycle Righteous God cultivation base, the Earthshaking Dragon Earthworm's deliberate leap was like a clap of thunder in his ears.
With a wave of his hand, the Earth Turning Dragon Worm was sucked into his hand. His eyes revealed an unexpected look of relief. Seemingly bored, he placed the Earth Turning Dragon Worm in his palm and began to play with it.
"Fellow Daoists, Fellow Daoists Gu Yuan and Tong Luo were displeased with the three of us and issued a challenge. They have already been sent out after four consecutive defeats. In order to prevent this from happening again, if there are any of you who are dissatisfied with us or have confidence in us, you can challenge the three of us!
The three of us will accept any challenge and will not be restricted by the restriction of one challenge per round. "Just in time, Grand Hall Master Xi Hao's voice once again sounded around Long An Star Palace.
"Continue to challenge. According to the rules we have discussed, the next five Fellow Daoists who have lost twice in a row will choose their opponents to challenge. Please …"
Grand Hall Master Xi Hao's voice completely caused the old man to return to the rock he was sitting on. As the two half-step Zhou Tian God existences began to fight, everyone's attention was completely focused on the peerless battle between the two people in the field.
"Phew …"
"Shadow, you can continue!" Ling Dong and the others, who heaved a sigh of relief, squeaked. The shadow that was the same color as the mountain began to wriggle forward like a stream of water. It was slow but fast.
Speaking of which, it was quite miraculous. No matter how Ling Dong concentrated and observed, he could only vaguely see a shadow that was the same color as the mountain wriggling. As for where the shadow's physical body was, he could not find it.
Once again, Ling Dong had the thought that there were endless Abhijnas and Secret Arts in the world. He could not let his guard down.
However, after this hair-raising episode, as the shadow flipped over the mountain and moved toward the back of the mountain, the safety became greater and greater as the distance widened.
At this time, the battle in front of Long An Star Palace had also reached its climax. After the names were called, someone immediately pounced out. The two people fought fiercely. Sometimes, the winner was decided in an instant. Sometimes, after a while, one side took the initiative to admit defeat. No matter what, the spectators were watching the battle attentively.
It was as if the continent's top boxing championship was being held. Everyone wanted to pay attention to the strengths and weaknesses of their opponents. Everyone wanted to learn something from it.
The old man, who had just discovered the slight abnormality at the volcanic crater, did not bother to step on it in the slightest. Only the Ground Flipping Dragon Earthworm was anxiously circling in his palm, but it could not find a way out.
Although the secret passage and the volcanic crater were only separated by a mountain peak, this was a mountain peak. Although the distance between the two mountains was only a few miles, the distance up and down the mountain was dozens of miles.
Even though the speed of the shadow's Secret Art of Deception was not bad, and after it was further away, it still took almost an hour to reach the place that Bai Han pointed out.
"Brat Han, where is the entrance to the secret passage that you mentioned? You said it was close, but why can't I see an entrance?!" The shadow's soft questioning voice rang out. It could not be helped. It now had to communicate with Ling Dong and the others, so it could only speak softly like it was talking to itself.
On the other hand, if Ling Dong and the others wanted to communicate with it, it would be enough to send a divine thought over.
Hearing this, Ling Dong frowned. The shadow was right. Although Bai Han said it was right in front of him, he really did not see any entrance.
In the Myriad Stars House, Bai Han took out a token that was engraved with simple patterns and asked, "Brother Ling, can you give this token to the shadow?"
"Sure!" Ling Dong nodded and took the token. This token was extremely heavy, and the touch was extremely strange. It faintly carried a burning feeling.
With a thought, Ling Dong had already sent this token to the squirming shadow. However, the latter scolded, "Who threw it? You can throw it anywhere, but you threw it at me …"
"Shadow, do you see that three-meter-deep crater on the left side of the mountain? If you see it, wrap this token and jump directly in, "Bai Han instructed.
"Jump directly into this crater?" The shadow hesitated, but the squirming shadow did not stop at all. It directly squirmed over the edge of the crater and fell in.
At their cultivation level, they naturally understood that each of their companion's words could not possibly be a joke. They all had a certain deeper meaning.
As expected, the moment it touched the bottom of the crater, a circle of extremely gentle silver light burst out of the token. The solid bottom of the crater suddenly blurred, and the shadow's figure passed through the bottom of the crater as if it had passed through a curtain of water, and once again fell straight down.
"Peng!"
"Ai, my head! Brat Han, why didn't you say so earlier? You just happened to give me an upside down fall. You don't know that when I used this secret technique to deceive the heavens and cross the river, my physical body was still weaker than an ordinary person's! " With this fall, the shadow's figure suddenly blurred and revealed its true form. It was currently rubbing its head in extreme discomfort.
"Brother Ling, send me out. Once we enter this secret passage, we'll be safe! This secret passage is said to be a secret passage left behind by Long An Star Palace in case of accidents. It's set up with an extremely advanced formation. Now, even if we make a ruckus in the secret passage, they won't be able to discover anything! "
Hearing Bai Han's words, Ling Dong and Elder Hai both breathed a sigh of relief. After being on tenterhooks for so long, even when they were far away from the mountain peak, they were still on tenterhooks. At this moment, everyone's minds could finally relax.
Naturally, Ling Dong would send them out of the Myriad Stars House one by one. Because of this, everyone's surprised gazes once again focused on Ling Dong. There was even a hint of passion in their gazes.
"This time, we were lucky to have invited Brother Ling over. If it weren't for Elder Huo and Brother Ling's treasure, I'm afraid we really would have no way to enter or retreat!" Bai Han solemnly said to Ling Dong with clasped hands.
However, Ling Dong pointed at the shadow and said, "Everyone just worked together. Without the shadow, no matter how good this treasure of mine is, it would be useless."
After chatting for a while, Ling Dong laughed a few times. After that, he started to size up the secret passageway.
Just as Bai Han said, this secret passage was made with great care. The walls of the secret passage were as smooth as a mirror, and there was a faint flicker of brilliance. There should be a formation protecting it.
"This is the first protective formation of Long An Star Palace's secret passage. However, with this token passed down by our ancestors, the formation didn't activate at all. It's not a big deal," Bai Han said as he led everyone forward.
As they advanced, Bai Han introduced it to everyone, "The first protective formation of Long An Star Palace's secret passage is mainly used to warn and trap the enemy. However, when it comes to trapping the enemy, the second labyrinth is the real place to trap the enemy!
I don't know what kind of formation is used to protect this labyrinth, but it can actually suppress one's divine sense to the extreme. No matter how high one's cultivation is, even if Elder Hai came here, he would have to explore the labyrinth like an ordinary person. Moreover, this labyrinth has a strange formation that detonates Reiki. If anyone has the ability to destroy the labyrinth, the detonating formation will immediately activate, and millions of Reiki will explode. Tsk tsk! "
"This labyrinth is used to trap the enemy. Its main purpose is to give Long An Star Palace enough time to react. Heh, that's all that was recorded by our ancestors. However, this labyrinth isn't much of a problem for us. Our ancestors also have some records of how to enter and exit this labyrinth. Everyone, just follow me! However, you must follow me closely. This labyrinth is constantly changing its position! "
"After exiting this labyrinth, we will have to face the third protective formation of this secret passage. Brother Ling, it's up to you now!" Bai Han looked seriously at Ling Dong.
"Oh, what's the third protective formation?" Ling Dong asked.
"The Myriad Peaks Geocentric Magnetic Formation!" Bai Han said solemnly.
At the same time, in front of Long An Star Palace, where the elimination battles had already ended, those powerful existences that had not come out were all healing their injuries or meditating. Only the old man that had been sitting halfway up the volcano was leisurely playing with the rare Earth Turning Dragon Worm in his hand.
Perhaps he was bored of playing with it, so he suddenly stood up and looked around. As he looked around, he was suddenly stunned.
The surrounding thirty-six peaks of the Star Dou Mountain Range were all extremely desolate. There was not even a single blade of grass. Forget mosquitoes and flies, even the lowliest ant beast was nowhere to be seen. Apart from this group of outsiders, there were no other living beings.
"Not a single blade of grass grows in the Star Dou Mountain Range. Ant beasts are extinct. No living beings exist …" As he muttered, the old man's eyes suddenly widened. He looked at the Earth Turning Dragon Worm in his hand with great shock.
Since not a single blade of grass grows in the Star Dou Mountain Range, ant beasts are extinct, and no living beings exist, then where did this Earth Turning Dragon Worm in front of him come from?
