Chapter 476 - Palace (5)



There were a total of ten people who had gone in and taking away the four that had gone into doors while Lin Fan had been away, as well as Wang Jian and his follower who had also gone into a door, there were only twenty people left standing here including Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen.

It wasn't that these people didn't also believe that there were opportunities behind these doors for them, it was just that they were too afraid of Lin Fan to move.

These people were all followers, so they had the mentality of following and submitting to the strong.

The people who had gone just now were people with high ambitions that allowed them to overcome their previous mental dispositions towards experts, but it was too bad that they didn't know that this was what had determined their deaths.

The ones that had chosen not to go against Lin Fan's words and stood there waiting had actually made the right choice.

Six minutes passed and there was a door that had opened.

This was the second trial that had been cleared and naturally the one who had done it was Wang Jian.

When he came out, he didn't look any worse for wear, but he did have a disappointed look on his face. Opposed to him, there was the Myriad Sword Hall junior who was walking behind him looking quite sorry with a bitter look on his face.

It was clear that one of them had a worse time compared to the other, but that was just the difference in strength.

Wang Jian walked over to the group again and looked at Lin Fan before saying, "Do you have a way to clear this round?"

Lin Fan looked back at him and just gave a nod.

Wang Jian didn't ask anything else and stood with the crowd, but it was clear that he didn't plan on going into any more doors and that he was planning on going with Lin Fan. This made it even harder for them to break off and go through the doors themselves.

After another minute of waiting, Lin Fan didn't wait any longer.

The countdown still didn't match the number of people that had gone in, so there were still people who were still alive, but Lin Fan gave up on them. After all, he wasn't a saint that would wait for everyone, he just needed to go to the next round. Not to mention that they were running out of time.

Waiting for everyone like this had drained half an hour from their two hour time limit, so they really were pushing it.

Since that was the case, Lin Fan raised his hand and summoned out the dead rat puppets that all lined up in front of a row of doors.

He came to the end of this row and opened and closed the doors one by one, sending the rat puppets in.

In less than a minute, the countdown above the gate started going up. The number continued to soar until it reached the required number.

But right before anything else happened, the number suddenly went up to 51, going above the number that they needed.

Right after that, there was a clicking sound before the door unlocked and swung open to reveal a corridor that didn't seem to have an end in sight.

But that wasn't the first thing that Lin Fan cared about, what he cared about more was the number of the countdown. It seemed like it was possible to exceed the number needed by sacrificing people and they didn't need to wait for the trial of others to finish before unlocking this gate.

That meant that if the people who were still trapped in the rooms were to survive and pass their trials, they would be able to catch up to them in the next trial.

Though that was what this should have meant, that didn't mean that Lin Fan would wait for them.

While Lin Fan stood there in thought, Wang Jian was the one who took the lead by walking right down that hall without any fear. He went at a steady pace and was soon already getting further and further away from them.

Of course following behind him was that other Myriad Sword Hall junior.

When the other people in the group saw this and saw that Lin Fan still wasn't moving, they couldn't wait any longer and ran down the corridor, chasing after Wang Jian.

After all, Lin Fan wasn't the only expert here. Wang Jian might have lost to Lin Fan, but that didn't mean that he wasn't an expert in his own right. Between following Wang Jian and following Lin Fan, it really didn't matter to them since both of them would treat them as pawns.

At the very least, Wang Jian was the one moving forward right now and these people couldn't wait.

Soon, it was only Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen who were left in this room.

However, even though it was only the two of them in this room, neither of them made a move.

Lin Fan had still been in thought while Mo Ze Chen just stood there waiting for Lin Fan to come back to his senses.

It didn't take Lin Fan long to come back to his senses since in the end, there was nothing he could do for the people that chose to follow their own desires. In the end, they were the ones that made the choice, so they would have to face the consequences. 

If they could make it out and come to the next round, that was good for them, but if they couldn't, that was just fate.

After thinking this, Lin Fan started moving through the gate and heading down the corridor with Mo Ze Chen following behind him. As they went along, Mo Ze Chen took one last look behind them before following Lin Fan down the hall.

Eventually they had gone far enough where they couldn't see the gate behind them anymore.

When this happened, what they didn't see was that the gate had closed behind them. At the same time, the countdown increased by the remaining number of people that had been inside the doors, but there wasn't a single door that had opened to let anyone out…

As Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen continued down the corridor, they noticed that the area in front of them was perfectly lit even though there wasn't a single torch that was by them. As they realized this, they began looking around for the reason and when they looked up, they found that there were tiny lights that were like the giant sun that was above the palace outside.

All of these tiny lights were sparkling in the sky above them, but when Lin Fan looked closely at them, he couldn't help feeling a familiar aura coming from them. Looking more closely, he could see that there was a faint golden glow around these lights.

Could it be…?

Lin Fan stopped moving and Mo Ze Chen turned to look at him before also turning to look at the lights with an intrigued look.

After a pause, Lin Fan suddenly called out Xiao Feng and jumped onto his back. When Lin Fan had jumped onto Xiao Feng's back, Mo Ze Chen also jumped right on without a word.

Both of them rode Xiao Feng just like this as he flew up to the ceiling above them, but before they could reach the small lights that were above them, there seemed to be a kind of invisible barrier that was stopping them from going any further. Xiao Feng tried pushing through, but he wasn't able to break through it at all no matter how hard he had tried.

Lin Fan knitted his brows when he saw this and he raised his hand to gather his power, but then he felt a hint of danger from in front of him. It was as if he made a move, there would be something that would be some powerful force that would strike him down where he stood.

Lin Fan wasn't certain of this, but he didn't doubt his instincts in this situation because it seemed too likely that this was the case.

However, when he looked at the lights that were in the ceiling, he could tell that these lights were all made of that golden energy that was special in this realm. Looking at all these lights that were in the ceiling, it was clear that there was a giant amount of that golden energy that was stored here.

Lin Fan wanted this energy since he knew that this golden energy was important in this realm, but at the same time, there was a chill that ran down his back.

He didn't know specifically what this kind of energy was, but according to the little girl, this was the energy of the "gods". If that was the case, someone that could control this much of this energy, just how powerful could he be?

Lin Fan already had some idea what the purpose of these ruins were and with this clue added in, he felt an even stronger chill run down his back.

But still, there was nothing he could do but continue forward.

So Xiao Feng came back down to the ground and they continued forward down this corridor.

It didn't take them long to reach the end of this corridor, but when the walked through the end, they couldn't find anyone there.
