Seeing the passage grow smaller and smaller, the people who had been searching for treasure panicked and immediately flew toward it like mad.
But the passage had now shrunk to the point where only two people could enter at once, and it was still shrinking faster and faster.
There were too many people. Several people finally rushed inside, but it was not so easy for those behind them.
In the end, as the passage closed completely, those who had rushed over could only pounce on empty air.
When they watched helplessly as the passage completely closed, they were all dumbfounded.
"Where's the passage? Where did it go?"
Panic instantly spread through the crowd. They desperately searched for the passage, only to discover that it simply no longer existed.
"It's over. The passage is gone... The next passage won't appear for another thirty years. That means we'll be trapped here for thirty years."
Someone in the crowd suddenly cried out in alarm.
Only then did everyone fully realize what had happened, and panic spread through all their hearts.
But what could they do now? With Zhuge Lan gone, they had lost their leader. Who still had the mind to dig for treasure?
At that moment, a terrifying roar came from the forest. Looking closely, they saw that it was actually two Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts.
Moreover, both Soul Beasts were terrifyingly enormous.
The treasure-hunting teams instantly went pale with fright.
Faced with such colossal monsters, they had long since been scared out of their wits.
The two gigantic Soul Beasts charged toward them, and a massacre immediately unfolded.
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
Under Zhuge Lan's lead, they soared through the sky. The scenery below was exceptionally beautiful, and at an altitude of ten thousand meters, they traveled extremely quickly.
