n“Senior? What are you doing? Haven’t we already discovered the treasure?”

nLooking at the confused disciples, Xuan Yi couldn’t be bothered to waste his breath.

nLike lightning, he dashed through the underground palace.

nHe didn’t have any time left to spare. If he continued wasting time, he feared that he would be killed by the unknown being.

nAfter all, he was the one who forced the system to issue an emergency escape mission.

nXuan Yi was not confident that he could win easily.

nHe maintained his maximum speed all the way while every cell in his body roared furiously.

nHe mobilized all the spiritual essence in his body and darted past various garrisons like a fiery flash of light.

nMany people noticed him as well, but from their point of view, it was impossible to catch up to Xuan Yi’s speed.

nThe speed of lightning could no longer be used to describe his speed.

nSoon, Xuan Yi had already covered a hundred miles. At this moment, he was still some distance away from leaving the underground palace.

nHe gritted his teeth and mustered his strength again.

nUsing his spiritual essence to stimulate every cell in his body while disregarding the damage that it might cause, he maximized his power output.

nEven with Xuan Yi’s body’s strength, he could barely maintain it.

nHowever, he persevered until the mission completion notification sounded.

n“Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the side mission.”

nUpon hearing this, he slowed down slightly and rushed out of the underground palace’s main entrance.

nHe ignored the shouts and obstructions of the other people and continued to sprint forward.

nAfter pulling some distance apart, Xuan Yi concealed his aura and crawled in a nearby underground cave, looking at the entrance of the underground palace from afar.

nEven being quite far away, he could still feel the scorching aura emanating from the palace.

nIt was unknown if the incident was triggered by exploring disciples who broke the seal.

nSuddenly, Xuan Yi heard the sounds of burning flames and heavy breathing.

nIt sounded like bodies being burned to a crisp by raging flames, as well as screams formed from burnt throats.

nThe sounds were transmitted from the underground palace and were extremely horrifying.

nA few disciples who were guarding the door were oblivious of what had happened.

nBut their survival instincts were urging them to leave.

n“What’s going on in there? Did you guys hear anything strange?”

n“I heard it too, and it seems like something is coming this way.”

nAs soon as he finished speaking, a shadow appeared out of nowhere.

nImmediately, the others became nervous and picked up their weapons.

n“Run quickly, don’t bother anymore, someone must have triggered the seal.”

n“But what if Master and the others know we left?”

nBefore he could finish his words, the dark figure suddenly accelerated and bolted out of the shadows.

nThe tensed nerves of the disciples were broken in an instant, and countless attacks were launched towards the figure at the door.

nOne of them glanced at the figure unintentionally and hurriedly asked his companions to stop.

n“Stop, it’s Elder Zhang.”

nWhen the smoke dispersed, a relatively young man appeared before them.

nHowever, his entire body was trembling uncontrollably, appeared to be charred black, and his clothes seemed to have also been burned.

nMost importantly, he seemed to be a lunatic, and the voices coming out of his throat did not sound human.

nXuan Yi had some impressions of this person.

nThe man could be considered a rare living legend.

nHe had already reached the intermediate stage of the Heavenly King Realm in just around 3,000 years. To Xuan Yi, he was quite a worthy opponent.

nIn time, he might not even be a match for that old maniac.

nNonetheless, it was unknown how such a person could end up in a crazy state like this.

nAt present, he looked extremely old. His eyes were dull, his entire body was filthy and his skin was full of wrinkles.

nHe looked like a frail old man.

n“Elder Zhang, what’s wrong? Why are you like this? Where are the others?”

nA few disciples hurriedly went forward to support him.

nHearing the questions of the disciples, he acted as if he did not hear them.

nNo one knew what he was thinking.

nHe only muttered, “It’s coming, it’s coming.”

nThe few disciples were extremely puzzled. They discussed settling him down, while the others went in to check.

nThey were unaware, but Xuan Yi, who was hidden in another place, noticed it.

nAt the entrance of the underground palace, the flow of time slowed down tremendously.

nOne-tenth.

nIt seemed that what the Dean said was true about the different time flow.

nJust as Xuan Yi discovered this phenomenon, the sound of footsteps entered his ears.

nA faint sense of threat stimulated him.

nHe immediately withdrew his mind and focused on observing.

nAs the footsteps approached, the other disciples also heard it one after another.

nA mysterious figure appeared out of the dark once again.

nBut this time, it was clear they had come with bad intentions.

nEven Xuan Yi who was far away could feel it.

nFollowing that, many similar figures emerged out of the underground palace.

nTheir battle intent soared to the sky, and a terrifying pressure covered the entire area.

nEven Xuan Yi felt a little uneasy.

nAt this time, a naive disciple mustered up his courage and asked, “Who are you? How dare you barge into the underground palace? Are you tired of living?”

nThe leading figure ignored him and merely glanced at him.

nThe low-level disciple felt a horrifying pressure and exploded to death.

n“Who are you? What era is this?”

nThe disciples looked at each other, not knowing what the figure was talking about.

nWhat was he trying to achieve?

n“How dare you? We are the disciples of the Ten Great Sects and you dare to kill our people?”

nA few people were about to stand up but everyone was stunned when the mysterious figure turned around indifferently.

nOnly then did they remember that the more than ten figures in front of them were all Heavenly King Realm beings.

nBehind them were figures of dozens of Sage Realm beings.

n“Die.”

nThe leading figure spoke softly. Soon after that, a small portal appeared behind him.

nA Divine God carrying an aura of destruction descended into the world and proceeded to ruthlessly plunge a long spear towards the crowd as if it were an uninhabited realm below.

nIn the blink of an eye, these hundred disciples were all killed.

n“Is this the current standard of the South Continent? It’s a little lacking.”

n“We’ve been asleep for too long. I wonder if any old folks still recognize us?”

n“Let’s go see the post 100,000 years South Continent. This time, they will remember us.”

nDozens of figures soared into the sky and left the area.

nAfter a long time, Xuan Yi came out of his hiding spot.

nRecalling the recent events, he roughly understood the current situation.

nJudging from the conversation just now, this group of people probably existed 100,000 years ago.

nFor some reason, it was most likely a seal that forced them to be trapped here.

nSome people might have broken the seal and unintentionally released this group of ancient beings. The fate of the current South Continent would no doubt change drastically soon.

nTo further confirm his theory, Xuan Yi came to the camp previously set up by the disciples to search for informative records.
