98: Enter the Tianji Pavilion!

Feeling the aura emanating from him, you didn't have time to think and directly led Zhuge Qing and Zi You into the Broken Mountain.

There was a barrier outside the Broken Mountain. When you entered, you immediately found that the internal space of the Broken Mountain was much larger than it appeared from the outside.

However, to your surprise, the destructive aura suddenly disappeared after you entered.

"How could this be?"

You turned to look at Zhuge Qing, finding him staring at his own hands with a puzzled expression. Just as you were about to ask him what had happened,

You suddenly felt Zhuge Qing's aura rapidly declining.

In just a few breaths, Zhuge Qing's cultivation, which was at the Mahayana Realm, directly fell to the Nascent Soul Realm Great Perfection!

At the same time, you noticed that Zi You's aura was also changing, and soon, like Zhuge Qing, her cultivation dropped to the Nascent Soul Realm Great Perfection.

"There's a Law here, forcibly suppressing my cultivation!"

Zi You looked behind her with a wary expression.

"Something's not right!"

You looked at Zi You, asking her what was wrong.

Zi You looked at the barrier you had passed through and said,

"Why didn't the Hao Tian Holy Land people chase us in?"

Upon hearing this, your body trembled violently.

Before entering the Broken Mountain, you had already felt that the Hao Tian Holy Land people were very close to you, and with their speed, they would soon catch up.

You had no choice but to enter this Broken Mountain.

Now it seems your choice was correct.

Good news: You have temporarily escaped the threat of the Hao Tian Holy Land.

Bad news: You are trapped inside this Broken Mountain and cannot get out.

Outside the Broken Mountain, within the Heavenly Void.

The Grand Elder of Hao Tian Holy Land arrived before the Broken Mountain and waved his hand, signaling to stop.

"Grand Elder! I didn't expect these ants to run into this mountain. Should we..."

The Grand Elder of Hao Tian Holy Land shook his head.

"No! We'll just guard outside. If we go in, our cultivation will be suppressed, which would give them a chance to counter-kill us!"

The Grand Elder of Hao Tian Holy Land had already sensed before you entered the Broken Mountain that the highest cultivation among you was only at the Mahayana Realm.

For him, a powerful expert at the Undergoing Tribulation stage, there was no need to risk a battle on equal terms.

Inside the Broken Mountain.

You and Zhuge Qing continued to walk deeper.

At present, all you could do was find the Tianji Pavilion Old Site.

From the perception of the Heavenly Evolution Art, you could sense that the Tianji Pavilion Old Site must be here.

Suddenly, you noticed the entire mountain range began to shake violently.

Immediately after, you saw figures emerging from underground on the path ahead.

In an instant, you were completely surrounded. You stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the corpses surrounding you.

The aura emanating from these corpses was, without exception, all at the Nascent Soul Realm Great Perfection.

At this moment, you finally understood why the people from Hao Tian Holy Land didn't come in.

"Run!"

As soon as the words fell, you immediately used the Great Desolation Imprisoning Heaven Finger and charged towards the corpses ahead.

Bang—

Under the attack of your Great Desolation Imprisoning Heaven Finger, a short path was cleared for you in an instant.

However, after just one breath, this path was once again blocked by corpses.

What made you feel even more despair was that the corpses you had just shattered with your Great Desolation Imprisoning Heaven Finger reformed into complete corpses on the ground and stood up again.

When you tried to use the Great Void Art to leave directly, you found that due to the restrictions of the Law here, your Great Void Art could only traverse a very short distance on the ground.

Seeing that you couldn't escape using the Great Void Art, you and Zhuge Qing continuously attacked the corpses, forcibly carving out a path in the sea of corpses.

At the same time, Zi You took out the Chaos Bell to help you block the corpses that ambushed you.

Thus, an unknown amount of time passed.

You saw a sea of blood ahead, and on that sea of blood, you saw a magnificent pavilion.

"Tianji Pavilion!!!"

Hearing this, Zhuge Qing followed your gaze, and his face instantly showed a look of pleasant surprise.

As you approached the sea of blood, you found that the corpses no longer targeted you, as if they were very afraid of the sea of blood before them.

After a bitter battle, you found that all three of you had suffered considerable injuries.

You looked at the sea of blood before you, hesitant to cross it easily for a moment.

From the behavior of those corpses just now, you knew that this place was definitely not simple.

However, Zhuge Qing couldn't care less.

Flying was impossible here, so Zhuge Qing directly took out a small boat from his Storage Ring and placed it into the sea of blood.

With no other choice, you and Zi You had to follow Zhuge Qing's footsteps and proceed towards the Tianji Pavilion.

Fortunately, you found that there was no danger in the sea of blood for the time being, and you arrived smoothly before the Tianji Pavilion.

"Yin and Yang Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation!"

Zhuge Qing looked at the Tianji Pavilion before him and said with a frown.

You were slightly stunned upon hearing about this Formation, as you had not encountered it in the Heavenly Evolution Art.

You asked Zhuge Qing what kind of Formation it was.

Zhuge Qing told you that this was the Formation Tianji Pavilion used to guard its treasures back then, primarily for killing!

Zhuge Qing also told you and Zi You that if one did not know how to break the Yin and Yang Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation, anyone below the Mahayana stage would surely die, and even Body Integration experts with higher talent would be severely injured if they didn't die.

And at present, under the Law suppression here, everyone's cultivation was restricted to the Nascent Soul Realm Great Perfection.

Zhuge Qing told you that the Yin and Yang Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation could not be mastered by anyone outside of Tianji Pavilion; it was one of Tianji Pavilion's core Formations.

Upon hearing this, you inwardly sighed, wondering who had thought of burying the Tianji Pavilion here.

This meant that, apart from the Tianji Pavilion successor, no one or no force could lay claim to it.

Zhuge Qing's next words made both your and Zi You's faces light up with joy.

"Others may not know, but that doesn't mean I don't!"

Zhuge Qing told you that this Formation happened to be a Formation passed down only within his Zhuge clan.

So, you followed Zhuge Qing's footsteps, entering the Tianji Pavilion step by step.

Under Zhuge Qing's guidance, you easily passed through the Yin and Yang Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation.

Upon entering the Tianji Pavilion, you found that the Tianji Pavilion was divided into nine floors.

You were surprised to find that the Tianji Pavilion, Heavenly Evolution Art, and Heavenly Secret Art all seemed to have nine floors. You wondered if there was some connection.

On the other side, after entering the Tianji Pavilion, Zhuge Qing began frantically searching for the whereabouts of the Heavenly Secret Art within the Tianji Pavilion.
