What's going on here?! Wang Chong inwardly muttered, unable to get a single word out of his mouth. He had never imagined that entering the golden barrier wouldn't take him to the Origin Immortal Palace but another dimension entirely.

The world before him was nigh infinite and brimming with mystery.

Wang Chong almost instinctively spread out his Psychic Energy, but he was not able to notice anything strange. Turning around, he saw that the golden light had vanished, leaving only white fog.

Wang Chong deeply furrowed his brow. All of this was completely different from what he had expected.

Bzzz! A slight heat came from his palm as the Origin Immortal Sword began to tremble once more.

It seems like this should be the place! Wang Chong said to himself. He was here now, and since he had received confirmation that this was the place, there was no point in panicking.

Whoosh!

He heard the swaying of the chains, ringing loudly in an otherwise silent world.

Wang Chong immediately turned to the source of the noise and saw two blurry objects swinging in the fog, appearing only for a moment before once more being engulfed.

Chains!

Wang Chong immediately waved a hand, sending Stellar Energy howling forward in a fierce gale to blow away the fog. Not far from him, Wang Chong saw two chains as thick as arms hanging down, extending high up into the air.

A rush of air swept past, causing the two chains to loudly jangle.

Wang Chong thought for a few moments, and then he flew upward, drifting toward the chains like a leaf on the wind.

”So cold! It's Meteoric Metal!”

The moment his feet touched the chains, he recognized that they were made of Meteoric Metal. But unlike the Meteoric Metal he had collected, the chains were made of a metal that was even older and much colder.

Wang Chong circulated his Stellar Energy, causing his feet to exert a pull on the chains, allowing him to swiftly travel upward along them.

One hundred feet, one thousand feet, ten thousand feet… Wang Chong moved with incredible speed along the chains, getting higher and higher above the ground. It wasn't long before he couldn't recognize anything around him, and only the two cold chains remained to lead the way.

Wang Chong had no idea where this was or where the two chains led. Everything was clouded in mystery.

Wang Chong continued to fly upward along the chains, and fifteen minutes became thirty minutes became two hours, four hours, six hours. Wang Chong's Stellar Energy was constantly being worn away, but the chains remained endless.

Gradually, Wang Chong began to sense that something was wrong.

At my current strength, I don't even need two hours to travel ten thousand meters, but six to eight hours have gone by now. How could there be a place so big in this underground world?

Wang Chong speculated. But at this moment, there was no going back, only going forward.

Swish!

He suddenly heard a sound, upon which Wang Chong felt a strange sensation. He stopped and turned in the direction of the sound, and what he saw was another swaying chain spanning the nearby space.

This chain had come from an entirely different direction, but it seemed to be traveling in the same direction as Wang Chong's chains.

”Wait! What's that?”

Wang Chong scanned the chain and immediately noticed something strange. Waving his sleeve, he sent a wave of energy sweeping across, driving away the fog. He was soon able to make out the object on that other chain.

A white skeleton was hanging on it, swaying back and forth with the chain.

The sight of this skeleton was incredibly confusing to Wang Chong. He had been the only one person to pass through the golden barrier and reach this place. There should have been no one except him here.

The third chain's appearance was already very strange, and the skeleton hanging on it pushed the strangeness to maximum levels.

”What's going on here? Has someone been here before? Or are there other passages to this place?”

Wang Chong's mind was in turmoil.

He saw more and more chains as he got higher and higher, and he also saw more and more white skeletons scattered across them. All of this was incredibly bizarre and confusing.

As time passed, Wang Chong could no longer recall how much time he had spent in this place or how much distance he had traveled. He only knew that the chains had gone from two or three to seven or eight, then ten-some chains, and then dozens… Like the threads of a spider web, they all converged on a single location.

Finally, after traveling along the chains for what seemed like an eternity, he saw a door of light at the nexus of the chains, exuding a dim glow as if it was waiting for something.

Buzz!

At this moment, the long-silent Origin Immortal Sword suddenly began to buzz and tremble. The heat coming from the sword immediately invigorated Wang Chong and brought him back to his senses.
