Chapter 425: Chapter 424: Close the Door

"Huh, there’s a sound!"

Just as Lin Hao was pondering, suddenly, Mo Changfeng abruptly turned around, looking deep into the palace, his long sword shimmering, instantly entering a battle-ready state.

Lin Hao also heard that sound.

It was a clanging and rattling, like a massive iron chain being pulled by something, dragging on the ground, scraping, and colliding.

At the same time, an inexplicable chill followed the sound of the chain collisions from the depths of the palace.

Not just eerie, but also heart-palpitating, the sound of the chains seemed to arise from one’s heart, grazing against the bones.

Upon hearing the sound, even Lin Hao got goosebumps, and Mo Changfeng’s face changed drastically, looking into the depths of the palace with horror.

The vast palace was originally lit by the starlight emitted from Primordial Stones, but now, a layer of white chill was added to it.

Like a fairyland, yet more like hell!

"This is..." Mo Changfeng’s expression turned even more solemn, the sound of the chains colliding as if drifting from hell, each scrape and bang seemed to accelerate his bloodflow with the sounds, even his heartbeat seemed to be controlled by the sound of those chains.

"Boom!"

Just as the two were searching for the source of the chain noise, suddenly, the stone gate behind them closed by itself.

The heavy stone gate thunderously shut, the entire palace felt like it shuddered.

"Not good!"

Mo Changfeng was instantly terrified!

This underground palace seemed to have only one exit; now that the exit was closed, wouldn’t they be trapped here to die?

Without a second thought, Mo Changfeng flashed his treasure sword, channeling Primordial Qi, and struck directly at the stone gate!

"Clang!!!"

Sword clashed with stone, sparking brilliant flashes, lightning in all directions, but the stone gate did not budge. Even Mo Changfeng’s strike left only a bright scratch.

Such a hard stone gate!

Mo Changfeng took a sharp breath, and even Lin Hao frowned, a flash of horror in his eyes.

"I don’t believe it, again!"

Knowing the gate was shut to trap them, Mo Changfeng wasn’t foolish. The sword missing its mark, he immediately channeled Primordial Qi, a powerful force rapidly gathering, the glow flickering around his long sword, the sword energy condensed, an invisible yet overwhelming pressure emanating from Mo Changfeng’s sword.

"Dragon Slayer Technique first style, one slash, embark!"

The sword was a treasure sword, and the technique was even more extraordinary.

Mo Changfeng roared, a horizontal slash across the sky, saw sword energy cleave through the air like lightning from the treasure sword.

"Whoosh!"

The sharp piercing sound of ripping through the sky echoed in the palace, followed by a booming explosion that made the entire structure tremble.

But!

"How is this possible!"

Mo Changfeng could hardly believe his own eyes; his Dragon Slayer Technique, a cultivation technique from a secret ruin on Resurrection Island, was immensely powerful, at least at the level of Upper Realm combat power. This sword had been made with the most advanced technology in the world, a costly alloy.

Yet faced with just a stone gate, it had barely scraped off a bit of dust.

"Again!"

The more mysterious, the clearer the danger, Mo Changfeng dared not be careless, his gaze suddenly falling upon the mountain-like Primordial Stones behind him.

Good thing there were Primordial Stones!

With his right hand holding the sword, Mo Changfeng’s left hand reached out towards the mountain-like Primordial Stones.

"Absorb!"

Like the Absorption Star Technique, mounds of Primordial Stones were lifted by Mo Changfeng’s vacant grasp, soaring into the air, flying towards him, and as they flew, they were directly refined into Primordial Qi, surging into Mo Changfeng’s body.

Then, Mo Changfeng’s power soared!

Returning to Truth Peak, Refining God Realm, Returning to Void Realm!

So many Primordial Stones pushed Mo Changfeng’s power to the brink of Sky-breaking!

It was a pity though that only Mo Changfeng’s Primordial Qi cultivation increased, but his body didn’t reach the strength to break the sky.

The power of Returning Void realm’s Primordial Qi was the limit that Mo Changfeng’s body could withstand. At this moment, Mo Changfeng’s hair fluttered without wind, his body shimmered with starlight, and over his treasure sword, sword energy billowed!

"Reverse Spiral Slash!"

Another long howl, and this time, Mo Changfeng’s Sword Energy was ten times stronger than before!

The Sword Energy filled the air, making even Lin Hao have to momentarily evade its sharpness.

"Boom!"

Another strike, flashing with lightning.

The whole hall seemed like it was about to collapse; even with that strike, Lin Hao thought he heard the wails of fierce ghosts in the void.

"Open for me!"

Mo Changfeng was truly panicked now, he also felt the hall was permeated with eeriness.

"Boom!"

"Clang!!"

With a dazzling light, Mo Changfeng struck the Stone Gate with his sword. The Stone Gate was unharmed, but Mo Changfeng’s face suddenly changed dramatically, turning blood-red, followed by a spurt of blood shooting out in a jet.

Almost at the same moment, the high-tech alloy Treasure Sword in Mo Changfeng’s hand also broke with that strike!!!

"This... This is impossible!!"

Staring at the shallow sword mark on the Stone Gate, Mo Changfeng couldn’t believe his eyes, a sense of unprecedented fear rising in his heart!

Could there be a stone door this solid in the world?

Is this place, perhaps, a land of certain death?!

Only a place of death would have such a solid stone door in place; no wonder that giant skeleton didn’t follow in—because this was a place you could only enter but not leave!

Was he doomed?

Mo Changfeng was panting heavily, big beads of sweat sliding down his forehead, then he looked at Lin Hao with a face full of shock.

"What do we do?"

What to do? Lin Hao glanced at Mo Changfeng without responding.

The sound of chains dragging continued within the palace.

"Let’s have a look."

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

Lin Hao had faced far more dangerous situations than this; it was just child’s play to him.

With so many Primordial Stones here, what was there for Lin Hao to fear?

He extended his right hand, and the Void Ring appeared on his finger. With a flash of light, a tornado burst out of the Void Ring, pulling the Primordial Stones within the hall into it.

No matter what happened next, he had to secure the immediate benefits.

The Void Ring was no ordinary Storage Ring; its space was unimaginable.

In just moments, the Primordial Stones in the hall began to disappear at a visibly rapid pace.

"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!!"

Beside him, Mo Changfeng exclaimed three shocking "holy shits," his eyes widened as big as lightbulbs, nearly petrifying as he dumbfoundedly watched the Void Ring on Lin Hao’s finger as if in a dream.

The Primordial Stones that his ten Storage Rings could carry were nothing compared to the slightest fraction Lin Hao’s Void Ring could hold!

However, Lin Hao paid no attention to the stupefied Mo Changfeng; while storing Primordial Stones, he continued walking forward.

The hall was very strange.

The chilling sound of chains, as if from Hell, still echoed, and the Primordial Stones were continuously absorbed, revealing stone pillars that had been buried.

On these stone pillars, there were carvings of strange patterns, unseen before; if one looked closely, those patterns seemed to move, even causing dizziness!

This was certainly not a benevolent place.

Lin Hao’s expression was solemn as he stepped forward. But this hall seemed endless, stretching out without any end in sight.

Even after the Void Ring was filled to the brim, there were still boundless Primordial Stones.

Mo Changfeng had already become like a fool, while Lin Hao was also shaken inside.

Suddenly, a ray of multicolored light flashed in the depths of the hall, followed by a pulse that made the heart tremble.

"Be careful!"
