Chapter 421: Chapter 282: Ancient God Script! Speed Reporting Office!
Lin Yan, using the Origin Power of Duke Murky Spirit as arrows, shot them with the Divine Bow.
By this moment, the power of the arrows had completely vanished.
Either they had been depleted within the Forbidden Land,
or they had returned to Duke Murky Spirit himself.
Since the arrows were shot from Lin Yan’s hands, he could faintly sense...before the arrows completely vanished, they had sustained much wear and tear.
This so-called wear and tear were either from piercing through something or encountering some obstruction.
The last point the arrows passed through was extremely perilous!
He did not know the terrain within the Forbidden Land, nor which areas were more dangerous.
But the position where Duke Murky Spirit resided was obviously in a dire direction!
"So that’s how it is."
The East Mountain Prefecture Master revealed an expression of realization and looked toward the bronze mirror in his hand.
This bronze mirror had its back covered with the trajectories of runes.
Whereas the front was blank, occasionally transmitting scenes and sounds.
These were the people within the Forbidden Land, consuming their True Qi, sending back scenes using the rune mirrors in their hands.
But True Qi was limited, and given the extreme danger inside, it was impossible to maintain the mirror’s scenes at all times.
Only at crucial moments would scenes be transmitted back, accompanied by the voice of the one holding the mirror.
——
Within the Forbidden Land.
An area dimmed, as if shrouded in fog, filled with a bone-chilling air.
The Deputy Commander’s gaze sharpened; his cultivation was quite high, enabling him to observe scenes in the darkness.
The members of the Observatory brought with him, however, were not all above the Inner Strength Realm.
Among them were those in the Inner Strength Realm, as well as those in the Blood Refining and Marrow Cleansing Realms.
Hence, these individuals needed to light torches to observe the surroundings.
"No mistake ahead!"
The Deputy Commander thought so in his heart.
During his last exploration of the Forbidden Land, based on information left by predecessors, he had walked more than a thousand steps.
After these steps, moving forward meant danger at every step, like walking on thin ice.
At a distance of twelve hundred steps, his subordinates had almost completely perished, and he, having been heavily injured, barely escaped from the Forbidden Land.
And based on his previous experience, those who had explored the Forbidden Land before him also took the correct path within the outer twelve hundred steps.
And before their deaths, they had ventured three hundred steps further.
Thus, after entering the Forbidden Land, he and Elder Luo together, had stormed through these fifteen hundred steps.
Only then did they disperse at this complex crossroads.
But he had already advanced another three hundred steps, safe and sound.
From this, he inferred that the path ahead should be safe.
However, there had just been some turmoil on Elder Luo’s side, apparently danger had already emerged.
"Deputy Commander, there is a fork in the road ahead, three paths."
A Martial Artist at about the Inner Strength Realm said gravely, "I will take two people with me, each to explore..."
"Hmm."
The Deputy Commander nodded slightly.
Of these three paths, typically only one was the way to survival.
They might all be dead ends.
Those three going to explore were basically heading to their deaths.
He knew that his nod was akin to the Executioner throwing down a marker for execution, slaying these bold and resolute men.
But his expression remained calm, he waved his hand and said, "Go, it won’t be long before I join you."
"May the Deputy Commander escape misfortune and continue to serve our Human Clan!"
The man bowed deeply, then picked two people, and headed deeper into the Forbidden Land.
After a while, a cold wind suddenly arose.
"The line on the right has been cut." A young man whispered, "One has died."
"Hmm."
The Deputy Commander’s expression remained unchanged, and he clenched his fists.
At that moment, he saw a light from the middle pathway.
His gaze sharpened, and he hurried forward.
He saw the subordinate he had just sent into the Forbidden Land rushing toward him.
But in the next instant, the Deputy Commander’s expression drastically changed.
He saw the man running toward him, but as he ran, his arms and legs suddenly split apart, fluttering to each side.
Even his head detached from his neck, rising a foot high, floating in the air.
"Deputy Commander, there are sinister creatures ahead!"
The head yelled, saying, "The entrance is here!"
As the voice fell, the head suddenly shuddered, the eyes looking dazed.
The pupils dilated momentarily, dropped to the ground, and then like a ball of meat, rolled aside.
The Deputy Commander, holding the rune mirror in his hand, his face changing momentarily, sighed, "It’s better this way, clean and without suffering."
Footsteps came from behind him, as his other subordinates followed closely.
And he gripped the rune mirror tightly and proceeded forward.
In a moment of haze, he saw a dense darkness ahead, as if enveloped in fog.
Amid the haze, a grand gate appeared.
Above it hung a plaque, imbued with a sense of age and decay.
The Deputy Commander was startled, immediately flipped the rune mirror, and reflected the scene ahead.
But in the next moment, his hand suddenly felt empty.
The rune mirror had inexplicably vanished.
A chill rose in his heart.
"Just now... something took the rune mirror from my hand..."
The Deputy Commander’s face turned pale, he thought, "Had It desired my head, wouldn’t I have been headless before even realizing it?"
——
Outside the Forbidden Land.
The East Mountain Prefecture Master’s expression had become extremely solemn.
The scene that had appeared on the rune mirror, he had also seen it just now.
Soon after, the scene on the mirror suddenly plunged into darkness.
"Just now, the fog was hazy, obscuring it, but that plaque above the gate..."
The East Mountain Prefecture Master’s gaze was grave, he took paper and pen, and according to what he had just seen, stroke by stroke, he wrote down the extremely complex characters.
