Chapter 165: Run
"You...." The Grand Uncle was greatly angered by these words. He hadn’t expected young people outside to become so arrogant now. It felt unbelievable to him, yet at the same time, he was filled with frustration.
Just as he was about to continue speaking, Changtian interjected.
"What the Young Master said is right. Grand Uncle, please don’t say anything more. Just follow along. I know you have questions now, but I cannot tell you yet. When the time is right, I will explain it to you."
Hearing Changtian’s words, the Grand Uncle was clearly stunned. He didn’t understand why the Imperial Lord would say this, or why he would fear a young man. This greatly puzzled the Grand Uncle, but since Changtian had explained, the Grand Uncle felt it was not appropriate to ask now. He could only wait for a good opportunity for the Imperial Lord to tell him.
After a moment of silence, Wang Yufan looked at Li Meng’er and said.
"You want to become stronger, and you will achieve that very soon. But once you are stronger, you need to think about what you want to do. The founding elder of this Jidao Imperial Court probably has more trials set up for you later. The difficulty is likely not small, probably even harder than this stone bridge. Although you possess the Rakshasa Body, trials are certainly unavoidable. I hope you can persevere."
"Look, there are two paths behind you. One is specifically designed for you. If I’m not mistaken, the other one should be for other disciples. It’s just that a Rakshasa Body is needed each time to open the forbidden area. I estimate the rewards from the trials inside are still there."
After hearing Wang Yufan’s words, not only Li Meng’er nodded, but Changtian’s heart also stirred with excitement.
If it was truly as Wang Yufan said, then in the future, the disciples of his Jidao Imperial Court could all come here to undergo trials and receive inheritances, which would be even better. However, with tens of thousands of Jidao Imperial Court disciples, it wouldn’t be practical for all of them to come. He would have to go back and establish a rule, allowing only disciples who had contributed to the Jidao Imperial Court or possessed exceptional talent to undergo the trials and inheritances. Only then would it work.
While Changtian was contemplating, Wang Yufan smiled and said.
"Looking at the Imperial Lord, he must be planning for his Imperial Court’s disciples. However, what I want to tell you is that although the other passage is not restricted by the Rakshasa Body, for disciples with low strength, it is no different from seeking death. You will only know the specifics once you enter."
Changtian nodded vigorously upon hearing what Wang Yufan had said.
"What the Young Master says is reasonable. Since my founding ancestor set this place as a forbidden area, there must be a reason for it. We will go check the other path later."
Wang Yufan nodded in response to Changtian’s words. He then looked at Li Meng’er and said.
"Alright, you go in. We’ll just wait for you outside."
Li Meng’er also nodded, then walked into the passage marked with the scythe emblem.
"Alright, let’s go too," Wang Yufan said.
Then, he and Changtian and the others walked into the other passage.
After walking for about dozens of breaths, everyone saw that the originally pitch-black cave suddenly became wide open, as if they had entered an Underground World.
Looking at the scene before him, Li Qiye’s face broke into a smile.
Wang Yufan then said.
"I didn’t expect there to be such a beautiful place beneath this forbidden area."
However, Wang Yufan said.
"The more beautiful a place is, the greater the danger that often accompanies it."
No sooner had Wang Yufan finished speaking than a white light swept directly over everyone’s bodies, though it lingered on Wang Yufan’s body for several seconds.
Then, everyone only heard rumbling sounds coming from not far away. They walked forward. They saw countless continuous mountains ahead, and two huge dark shadows, covering the sky and sun, approached.
As the distance grew shorter, the two massive dark shadows also appeared in everyone’s field of vision.
However, upon seeing this scene, the Grand Uncle suddenly cried out in alarm.
"No, everyone run. These are ancient demonic apes. Looking at their posture, their strength has already reached the God King Realm. Only the Imperial Lord among us is a God King, and he can’t block the attacks of two demonic apes."
After the Grand Uncle finished speaking, he was about to retreat, but Changtian stopped him. Although he was also very shocked, there was a being even more terrifying than a God King here, so he wasn’t as worried.
"Imperial Lord, let’s leave quickly! Don’t stop me! You might not even be a match for these two!" the Grand Uncle said.
Changtian spoke.
"Grand Uncle, don’t be anxious. Trust this Imperial Lord; nothing will happen."
After stopping the Grand Uncle, Changtian said to Wang Yufan.
"Young Master, why are there two God King Realm demonic apes here?"
In response to Changtian’s question, Wang Yufan replied. "There’s no why; they simply exist here. This is a small world, but also a small world where the illusory and the real intersect. The white light that just swept over us was actually testing the strongest among us. As for why there are two God Kings and not one, I don’t know."
"This small world was used by that old man as a trial ground, and it’s really quite good. Every time someone enters this world, they will be matched with a beast of equivalent combat power."
Upon hearing Wang Yufan’s words, Changtian immediately said.
"According to the Young Master, then one of these two is specifically to deal with me, and the other is to deal with you all? Can I fight the other one?"
Wang Yufan smiled and said.
"You can try."
Changtian looked at the two approaching demonic apes and directly punched one that was staring at Wang Yufan.
However, the demonic ape neither dodged nor flinched, as if it hadn’t seen the attack.
It wasn’t until the palm print directly passed through the body of the other demonic ape and struck two large mountains that Changtian reacted.
The demonic ape that was staring at him was already less than a hundred meters from Changtian. Changtian didn’t think much and immediately unleashed a punch.
The demonic ape roared and also swung its large arm, attacking Changtian.
The power of two God King Realm beings directly exploded in this sky, and the space itself began to tremble slightly.
The demonic ape heading towards Wang Yufan and the others also made the same movement, attacking everyone.
"What do we do? It’s over." At this moment, the Grand Uncle had only one thought in his mind. In his understanding, a God King Realm demonic ape was not something he, a True Immortal, could withstand, nor was it something the two young men, including Wang Yufan, in the distance could endure.
Although the Grand Uncle was old, he was also very afraid of death. At this critical moment, he could only try to use his strongest power to see if he could find a glimmer of hope for survival.
However, just at this moment, a voice resounded in everyone’s ears.
