Chapter 1647: Chapter 1643: Guidance in the Heart

At this moment, Zhao Feiji’s whole body had his malevolent aura restrained and the ghostly Qi was not visible, whether it was his complexion or his temperament, he looked no different from an ordinary person, except that his pupils seemed to contain ancient wells of abyss, filled with rich darkness.

"Congratulations, for successfully advancing to the middle stage of True Immortal. Looking at this, you are only half a step away from the later stage, right?" Shen Luo looked Zhao Feiji up and down, and spoke with great satisfaction.

"It all depends on Master’s support, otherwise, I would have had difficulty breaking through this mid-stage bottleneck anytime soon." Zhao Feiji clasped his hands together and bowed in gratitude.

"It’s our good luck and also your good fortune," said Shen Luo with a smile.

"Now I can finally be of some help to Master and won’t be dragging Master down." Zhao Feiji said genuinely with a flushed face.

"No rush, you continue to recuperate in the Ten Thousand Demons Banner to stabilize your realm for now. I will call you out when I need your help," Shen Luo said.

Zhao Feiji hesitated for a moment but nodded, then turned and went back into the Ten Thousand Demons Banner.

"So Brother Shen has a strong warrior too," said the Enlightened Heavenly Beast.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo only smiled and didn’t explain further.

The trio stayed for a moment, and after Shen Luo had taken an Elixir to recuperate, they got up and left.

Upon exiting the great hall, the trio found that the scenery outside had changed once again, with roads crisscrossing everywhere and they had already appeared on the right side of the mountain peak.

"Where to next?" Nie Caizhu asked.

Shen Luo looked into the distance, and relying on the sense of the Sword Qi he had left before, he identified several palaces that had already been explored, ruled them all out, and chose the one closest to himself.

"Let’s go over there first." Shen Luo pointed and said.

Having said that, he took the lead and walked in that direction.

But he had only taken a few steps when Shen Luo suddenly furrowed his brows and stopped in his tracks.

"What’s wrong?"

Nie Caizhu and the Enlightened Heavenly Beast, not knowing why, also stopped and looked at Shen Luo.

Shen Luo did not answer, but simply took out the Free and Easy Mirror from his sleeve, activated it slightly, and opened a white light gate, through which a figure immediately emerged, it was Zhou Tie.

After Zhou Tie appeared, his initially bewildered eyes suddenly lit up, and urgency appeared on his face as he turned his neck left and right, continuously surveying the surroundings.

"What did you feel?" Shen Luo asked.

"I don’t know, but it seems like something is calling me, urging me to quickly go there," Zhou Tie said with a deeply furrowed brow and an anxious expression.

Having said that, without waiting for any reaction from Shen Luo and the others, he started walking quickly forward.

Shen Luo and the others exchanged glances and quickly followed.

"Where are you going?" Shen Luo asked hastily.

"I don’t know, I don’t know where to go, but there’s a voice constantly swirling in my mind, guiding me to follow it, I must go, I must follow it," Zhou Tie continued speaking, but his feet didn’t stop moving.

But he quickly deviated from the path in the woods and plunged headfirst into the dense forest.

Seeing this, Shen Luo and the others immediately stepped forward to intercept.

"You mustn’t venture inside here. Once you lose direction, it won’t be a matter easily resolved in a short time," the Enlightened Heavenly Beast looked at Shen Luo and furrowed its brows as it spoke.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo pondered for a moment and asked, "Zhou Tie, is the voice in your mind telling you to go in there?"

"Yes, it’s telling me to go inside, that I must go inside. Don’t stop me; I need to go in. It’s waiting for me." Zhou Tie wore an anxious expression and nodded repeatedly.

Shen Luo’s brows drew tightly together, showing some hesitation.

"Could it be some trickery by Wu Luo?" Nie Caizhu asked.

"It doesn’t seem likely. Even if Wu Luo wanted to control him, he couldn’t have infiltrated his divine soul into the Carefree Mirror. Moreover, taking such a roundabout way doesn’t make much sense," Shen Luo shook his head as he spoke.

"Friend Shen, think carefully. Once we get lost in the forest, even if we manage to find our way out eventually, we might delay our journey, risking others beating us to the real Tianyan Palace," said the Enlightened Heavenly Beast.

"There must be a reason for this. I think we should follow him," said Shen Luo, after pondering for a long while.

Having said that, he no longer obstructed Zhou Tie, letting him lead the way into the dense forest.

With Shen Luo having made up his mind, the other two didn’t say much more and followed Zhou Tie into the forest.

Zhou Tie walked through the dense forest without any clear direction, changing direction every few dozen steps, appearing to lack any discernible pattern.

Shen Luo and the other two followed Zhou Tie, turning left and right. After about half a moment, they still hadn’t emerged from the mountain forest; instead, it felt as though they were encountering ghostly misdirections, endlessly circling back on themselves.

"Friend Shen, we can’t keep following him around aimlessly like this. We’ve practically been going in circles all morning and have already made at least six rounds," the Enlightened Heavenly Beast stopped Shen Luo and said.

"You’re right. I’ve been observing as well, and Zhou Tie’s path is indeed circling. However, the situation here is somewhat different, which you might not have noticed. Each time we circle, although we are still in the forest, the scenery within has slightly changed," Shen Luo brushed off the Enlightened Heavenly Beast’s hand and continued following Zhou Tie, speaking as they walked.

"What do you mean?" The Enlightened Heavenly Beast asked, baffled.

"Have you not noticed that the trees around us are becoming denser, and their color greener?" Nie Caizhu, however, understood Shen Luo’s point and pointed to the surrounding trees as she spoke.

Upon hearing this, the Enlightened Heavenly Beast suddenly realized, "Are you saying, although we are going in circles, the environment around us is actually constantly changing, so in reality, we have been making progress?"

"Exactly. Right now, we are in the mountain forest, unable to see what’s outside, but in fact, we have been descending all along. If I’m not mistaken, we should have reached halfway up the mountain," said Shen Luo.

"Halfway up the mountain? But there’s no palace at halfway..." the Enlightened Heavenly Beast hastily said.

As soon as its words fell, Zhou Tie, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.

Shen Luo and the others also walked up to where he had halted, only to see Zhou Tie standing there, looking baffled, gaze blankly fixed on a row of towering trees ahead.

"What’s happening to him..." asked the Enlightened Heavenly Beast, puzzled.

Seeing this, Shen Luo slightly furrowed his brows, raised a finger, and gently poked into the void in front of Zhou Tie.

With a "whoosh".

The group suddenly experienced a blurry moment, as if a vast curtain had been swiftly pulled open in front of them, revealing a clear and expansive scene, with all the forest trees vanishing, replaced by a flat, spacious cliff platform.

On one side of the platform, leaning against the mountain wall, a palace building stood majestically.

Zhou Tie took the lead and walked towards the palace.

Shen Luo and the others also followed him to the front of the palace, and upon a brief investigation, they felt waves of prohibition power emanating from the palace doors.
