Thud—!!
Amid a dull rumble, the dust piled across the surface of the Bronze Giant Gate slowly fell away. This ancient, mysterious door finally opened completely before the four of them!
Smoke and dust swept past their figures as they crouched beside the cave and watched, their eyes full of shock.
As the Bronze Giant Gate opened to its limit, the entire space once more fell into dead silence. The four exchanged glances and lapsed into silence...
"Did any of you... knock on the door just now?" Baili Pangpang could not help asking.
"How is that possible?" Li Deyang's mouth twitched slightly. "That thing looks evil as hell. Who would knock on it for no reason?"
"Then why did it open?"

"That makes sense!" Baili Pangpang gave An Qingyu a thumbs-up.
The four walked up to the Bronze Giant Gate and swept their flashlight beams beyond it. Through the hazy dust, the outline of an ancient city could faintly be seen.

"Why is it so cold?" Li Deyang
