Chapter 515 Entering the Trial Ground
Chapter 515 Entering the Trial Ground
Stone City, by Xuanwu Lake.
Suddenly, a light mist rose up and quickly covered a large area by the lake. The mist did not seem too thick, but the strange thing was that if you stood outside, you could not see the situation inside the mist at all.
The appearance of this fog also attracted the attention of a group of wild dogs drinking water by the lake. Just as the wild dogs were eager to go in and take a look.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Three arrows shot out from the fog, and the four wild dogs fell to the ground. One arrow actually pierced the necks of two wild dogs in succession. In this way, the three arrows killed the four wild dogs.
Seeing their own kind falling to the ground one after another, the other wild dogs were frightened out of their wits. Amidst the extremely miserable cries, the remaining six or seven wild dogs fled into the distance and soon disappeared without a trace.
Soon, six people came out of the fog one after another. The one in the lead was Qin Zhong, and following behind him was Xue Yue, who had shot the three arrows just now.
"Is this Xuanwu Lake?" Looking at the nearby Xuanwu Lake, Xiao Yingyong walked to the water's edge with a smile, gently stirring the water surface with his hand.
"My mom always wanted to travel to Stone City, but she's been very busy since my dad passed away. I never thought I'd finally make it to Xuanwu Lake after the apocalypse!"
Qin Zhong, Yan Shikai, and Niu Dagang stood together. As soon as the three men walked out of the space node, they gathered together and lit a cigarette. Yan Shikai said, "Star Lord, your mirror monster's abilities are truly remarkable. Although the journey here was a bit dangerous, it certainly saved us a lot of time on the road!"
"Yes!" This was the second time that Niu Dagang had transferred to another place through the mirror monster's inner world, but he still felt particularly shocked. There was an inexplicable fear in his eyes when he looked at Qin Zhong.
Facing the two people's words, Qin Zhong smiled slightly, without saying much. He finished a few puffs of the cigarette in his hand, threw it on the ground and stomped it out with his foot, then said: "Everyone, do you have any other questions? Remember the precautions I told you before!"
Yan Shikai, Xiao Yingyong and others nodded, indicating that they had remembered it.
Seeing that everyone had no problems, Qin Zhong immediately took out the badge given to him by Mr. Mu from his space ring.
As the badge was taken out from the space, a figure was projected from the badge. It was Mr. Mu.
As soon as Mr. Mu's projection appeared, he saw Qin Zhong and others. Although Mr. Mu's face was covered by a layer of mist, everyone could still feel his gaze falling on them.
"Mr. Mu, my team is here. We can enter the trial ground!" Seeing Mr. Mu appear, Qin Zhong immediately stepped forward and said with a serious expression.
Mr. Mu did not speak immediately, but his eyes swept over everyone. As his eyes swept over them, everyone felt as if they were exposed to X-rays, as if they were seen through from the inside out.
Qin Zhong's face changed slightly. Among these people, he had the highest rank and his feelings were particularly clear. He felt that under Mr. Mu's gaze, it seemed as if no secrets could be hidden and all were revealed.
As if noticing the strange look on Qin Zhong's face, Mr. Mu's voice slowly rang out: "Because this is your first time entering the trial ground, we need to build an archive for you. We won't deliberately spy on your secrets, so please rest assured!"
Qin Zhong frowned slightly and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay... Don't think too much!"
Although Qin Zhong said this, he secretly sighed in his heart. This is the sorrow of the weak. Even if someone peeks into your secrets, what can you do?
……
Fortunately, the waiting and file creation time was not long. After about two or three minutes, Mr. Mu seemed to have created files for all six people, including Qin Zhong. Then he said, "I will open the trial door now!"
As they were talking, they felt the ground beneath their feet seemed to be shaking. Everyone looked around, wanting to check what was going on. Soon, they heard Xue Yue's surprised voice: "Look at the lake!"
At the same time, everyone looked towards the center of Xuanwu Lake. They saw that the water in the lake was bubbling and boiling, as if something was emerging from under the surface of the water.
As everyone stared in amazement, the lake water boiled more and more violently, as if stirred by an invisible force, splashing water everywhere, and the white waves bloomed layer by layer like blooming lotus flowers.
Immediately afterwards, the water waves in the center of the lake began to roll violently, as if being pushed up from the bottom by a powerful force.
Suddenly, a dazzling light shone through the lake, and in the light, a huge metal platform slowly rose. It emitted a cold metallic luster, and its surface was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and the surrounding green trees.
As the platform rose, everyone's heartbeat quickened.
In the center of the platform, there stands a huge bronze door. It is tall and majestic, more than ten meters high. The door is carved with complex and mysterious patterns, and ancient runes are like flowing flames, flickering a faint light on the bronze surface.
The outline of the bronze door appears particularly clear in the sunlight. It stands there in the air, as if it were a gate growing out of this metal platform, mysterious and awe-inspiring.
"Open the door!" With Mr. Mu's clear shout, everyone felt the ground beneath their feet tremble slightly, and then everyone saw the bronze door slowly open a crack.
The gap is not too big, just enough for one person to walk through. Even if two people walk side by side, they probably can't pass through.
"Alright, the trial gate is open. Qin Zhong, take your people in!"
Seeing that the bronze door had opened a crack, Mr. Mu's eyes fell on Qin Zhong and asked him to bring people in.
Seeing this bronze door filled with a strange atmosphere, especially when the door opened and a cold breath emanated from it, Qin Zhong felt a little uneasy.
But at this moment, retreat is absolutely impossible. Even if it means death, I have to go in!
Thinking of this, Qin Zhong turned his head to look at the people surrounding him, stretched out one hand in the air, and approached. Xiao Yingyong's hand pressed on his hand...
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Yiyi, Xue Yue, Yan Shikai, and Niu Dagang all put their hands up.
After everyone's hands were put together, Qin Zhong shouted Tian Gang, and everyone shouted Tian Gang at the same time, and then let go of their hands together.
After doing all this, Qin Zhong took a deep breath, jumped onto the metal platform, and came to the slightly open bronze door. Through the gap, he looked at the vague black inside the door and strode in.
As soon as he walked in, before Qin Zhong had time to look around, he felt a sudden and powerful pressure coming down from the sky. The gravity, like a mountain pressing down on his head, almost broke his body and forced him to kneel down on one knee.
"Ah!" Qin Zhong went berserk in an instant, but then he was horrified to find that he couldn't go berserk at all.
At this moment, Qin Zhong felt as if the ground had turned into quicksand. His legs instantly sank into the ground, and his whole body continued to sink.
"Shit, what's going on?" Although Qin Zhong was a little panicked, he tried hard to control his emotions and began to use other super powers.
But soon, he discovered incredibly that he could not use any of his super powers, and even if he wanted to release the Mirror Demon and Wukong, he could not do it.
The Tang sword and the space ring seemed to have lost contact and could not be opened at all. At this moment, Qin Zhong was really panicked!
