”Ah!”
”How could this be?! Is the Origin Immortal Lord still no match for him?!”
The martial artists instantly panicked. For this unsettled crowd, True Lord Yellow Dragon's voice had a nightmarish tone to it, and they would not find the description of 'monster' for him to be an exaggeration.
But True Lord Yellow Dragon's voice resounded for only a few moments before an even more powerful energy quashed it. The earth once more calmed back down.
Wang Chong couldn't see what was happening down below, but the 'aftershocks' alone left him flabbergasted.
”Senior, what's your condition?” Wang Chong asked in concern.
”I'm fine. His resistance is extremely fierce, but I've prepared these formations for a thousand years for this very moment. Although I can't seal him here forever, it should be for long enough.”
The Origin Immortal Lord's voice came in bits and pieces, but his words still managed to soothe Wang Chong's mind.
”Back up a little. I will now help you get out of this place!”
Wang Chong had barely taken a few steps back when a boundless stream of destructive energy exploded out of the fissure.
Boom! Crack! The rock wall near the crowd suddenly collapsed in a great shower of stones.
The easily-frightened crowd instantly scattered upon witnessing this sudden attack.
”Look! What's that?!” someone shouted.
”Not good! There's a crack in the rock wall! Is this place going to collapse?!”
The martial artists were all panicked and fearful. This place was at least twenty thousand meters beneath the earth. If it suddenly collapsed, they would all be buried here and would only have death awaiting them.
”Wang Chong, what's going on here?!”
Song Yuanyi strode over to Wang Chong's side. While everyone else was in disarray, only Wang Chong continued to stand at his original spot, apparently extremely calm.
Moreover, the wall had cracked open far too abruptly. If there was one person who knew the truth of it all, it was probably Wang Chong.
Wang Chong had entered the Origin Immortal Palace, and he was the only one to have any connection with the Origin Immortal Lord.
”Everyone, don't panic. This is a passage the Origin Immortal Lord opened for us. True Lord Yellow Dragon might come out at any time, so we need to use this crack to return to the surface as quickly as possible.”
Wang Chong's voice resounded through the pit, and the panicked crowd instantly calmed back down.
”Lord Marquis saved us, so we'll listen to your orders!”
The martial artists began to call out, their eyes gleaming with respect.
”This place won't last long and might collapse at any time.” Wang Chong suddenly turned to Song Yuanyi and asked, ”Alliance Lord Song, please lead everyone out of here!”
Song Yuanyi merely gave Wang Chong a profound glance before turning back around.
”Guangting, Black Yin Ancestor, you lead the way. Bone Devil, the Demonic Emperor, and I will hold the rear.”
Under Song Yuanyi's command, the group began to make their way past the rocks and bones, entering that pitch-black crack which was thirty-some meters tall and around five meters wide.
Song Yuanyi's built-up prestige in the martial arts world ensured that the group departed in an orderly fashion, and it took only a few moments before they were all gone.
Once everyone was gone, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief turned to look at the motionless Wang Chong and called out, ”Chong-er, we'll wait for you! Come as soon as you can!”
Seeing Wang Chong nod, the two of them entered the crack without hesitation.
Bang!
Not long after they left, a massive boulder came from above and smashed into the ground not far from Wang Chong's feet.
As more time passed, the surrounding rocks began to tremble, and more and more rocks and dust came down.
Buzz!
Wang Chong's eyes flashed. Suddenly, the bones and rocks vanished, and Wang Chong emerged in a vast white world.
Fog permeated the place, and Wang Chong could see two straight chains in front of him that stretched to the other side. There, a familiar figure was silently watching him. He had apparently been waiting for some time.
Origin Immortal Lord!
Wang Chong instantly recognized the elder.
This place was very similar to the white world he had traversed before entering the Origin Immortal Palace, but Wang Chong was aware that all of this merely an illusion.
The Origin Immortal Lord had pulled his mind into this place.
”Senior!”
