A thick fog enveloped an extremely wide radius region. No one knew how vast the location where the Eternal Lake was.
Yi Yun stared at the fog with a frown on his forehead.
“System! Check what exactly the fog is and whether it can be penetrated.” Yi Yun's orders were in his mind.
[Dig!]
[The fog is an incredible seal created by someone who has reached the Eternal level. It had the functions of concealment, illusion and even contained qi elements that could kill Sage Realm level cultivators easily. The seal will open at a certain time because it has been arranged by its creator]
[For current Hosts, the System advises against touching the fog]
[Systems have a way to force open them but require a hefty amount of System Points]
More and more frowns appeared on Yi Yun's forehead and continued asking in his mind. “When exactly did the seal open?”
[Start checking]
[Dig!]
[Finished checking]
[The seal will be opened within 30 minutes]
Hearing the System's reply, Yi Yun would naturally wait as he would only spend System Points if trying to break through using the System's help.
“Now the seal will open.” said Yi Yun.
“Really? How long is husband?” Xiao Moxian asked curiously.
Even Xuan Yuqie, Yu Ruyan and Long Zhi were curious how could Yi Yun know the fog would open completely.
“In 30 minutes. But, if you ask how I know it, the answer is very simple, which is because I have seen the same seal.” Yi Yun said a little bragging.
Xiao Moxian, Xuan Yuqie and Yu Ruyan only smiled slightly looking at Yi Yun who looked bragging.
As for Long Zhi, he only snorted. For some reason, any matter that concerned Yi Yun, it would make him very upset for some reason.
“If this place opens within 30 minutes, then we better wait.” said Yu Ruyan.
All of them nodded. To Yi Yun, he was very curious what exactly was inside there.
**
At a certain place in the seal where the Eternal Lake was located, a group of cultivators were seen moving.
They were a group of bandits led by Chu Tong, someone who possessed an extremely powerful innate tracking ability. Even someone like Zhao Ming had to acknowledge his abilities.
The place that Chu Tong's group was aiming for was an ordinary forest on the outskirts of the seal.
Chu Tong landed and looked around him closely. The goal was fixed on a certain tree that looked a little strange because even though it appeared to have died, it still emitted a powerful aura.
“Here..” said Chu Tong with a small smile on his face. He slowly walked and stared at the tree which had a height of about six meters.
“Bos, what are we doing here?” Ask one of the Chu Tong members.
Chu Tong did not immediately reply and only smiled viciously.
“Right now, it is time for you to make another contribution to me as a member of the group we have formed over the years.” Chu Tong said.
“What should we do boss?”
“Whatever it is, we will definitely do it!”
“Bos is the leader who will rule this Continent someday!”
Chu Tong slowly turned around and gazed towards all of his members who numbered nearly a hundred cultivators. He was small to hear it and issued a certain tool like a small red token in the shape of a rectangle.
“If so, I want you all to die.” Chu Tong said.
Chu Tong's words made all the originally excited members of the group instantly speechless as they felt that what they heard was wrong.
“What? Can repeat boss?”
One of them asked in a confused tone. But Chu Tong no longer spoke as his face looked extremely evil at this moment.
Dungs!
An extraordinarily powerful spiritual force was bursting out mixed with qi. The moment it happened, an enormous pressure was on all of Chu Tong's subordinates.
All the members of Chu Tong immediately crawled on the ground and were shocked by what their boss was doing.
“Bo-bos.. what does the boss do?”
“Do we have any fault?”
“Im sorry our boss!”
Many of the Chu Tong members spoke with great difficulty and sought mercy from Chu Tong as they did not know what was really going on at this moment.
“This is your last contribution because I have been taking care of you all this time.” Chu Tong placed the token he held onto the tree in place of a small hole corresponding to the size of the token, after which, he immediately floated into the air to wait for what would happen next.
Jrezh!
All of a sudden, hands made of qi came out from within the ground and instantly attracted all of Chu Tong's subordinates.
“Arrrrrggggh!”
All of them shouted loudly from feeling pain as their bodies sunk into the ground.
Chu Tong noticed all of these things with a small smile on his face. “It turns out the ancient record was indeed true. There were several Secret roads to enter there, and this was an underground pathway that made one directly reach the Eternal Lake. And to do that, it takes a certain token created by someone in the past when the Eternal Lake was about to be opened and this requires the victim to activate another seal.”
At the moment when the scream was still heard, it was at that moment that the tree that was originally the key was actually slowly sinking into the ground.
Chu Tong wasted no time and directly moved towards the tree and held the tree to bring himself inside.
In the fairly distant sky, Zhao Ming stared at what had happened from the very beginning. He had never seen such a seal before and when Chu Tong was brought underground by the tree it was like breaking through the ground, he was shocked and immediately moved at his highest speed to catch Chu Tong.
As Zhao Ming approached, Chu Tong who was about to sink completely stared at Zhao Ming. He grinned as if he had already learned that Zhao Ming had been following him all along.
Wussh!
Chu Tong sunk into the ground completely and at that very instant, Zhao Ming arrived on the spot.
“Sial! It seems that the bastard has been examining me from the very beginning. He predicted about my strength and the distance between us when he unlocked the secret passage!” Zhao Ming that he had made a mistake and had not predicted it from the start. He was too confident in his strength and in fact he had been fooled by Chu Tong.
From the very beginning, Chu Tong seemed to show no look of alert expression towards the surrounding area as it had already devised a mature plan after detecting that anyone was following his group.
Not long after, the tree that was originally in that place slowly came out back to the ground. But there was absolutely no token held by Chu Tong before.
Therefore, Zhao Ming immediately attacked the place with all his might to forcefully open the secret passageway. But, what he did not expect, the place was extremely hard like a diamond and when the attack hit the target, it was instantly returned to him.
Seeing that, Zhao Ming immediately made the strongest defensive technique he had.
Duars!
A huge explosion occurred at the site. As the dust disappeared, the place seemed to have no damage at all. As for Zhao Ming, he was seen to have suffered quite serious injuries.
Zhao Ming's current face was extremely dark because Chu Tong had tricked him raw. “Sial!”
