Chen Changan jumped into Heavenly Pool and discovered that it was much larger beneath the surface than it was above.
It was also deeper than he had expected. Chen Changan quickly descended nearly a hundred meters, yet still hadn't reached the bottom.
Although Chen Changan's cultivation was only at the True Qi Realm First Layer, his actual strength was far greater.
Besides, his physique was special, and the water pressure didn't affect him at all.
Chen Changan continued descending. After going nearly a thousand meters down, he finally noticed something different.
At the bottom of Heavenly Pool was another barrier. This one simply held back the water, separating it from the cave entrance below.
"Interesting."
Chen Changan smiled faintly, then flashed forward and charged straight into the cave.
Inside, everything was pitch-black. The passage was narrow and long, but still wide enough for him to walk upright.
Chen Changan flicked a finger. A streak of golden Sword Qi shot forward, illuminating the passage and revealing its every detail.
The passage wasn't long, only about a hundred meters. At the far end stood a stone door.
Chen Changan soon reached it. He had expected to have to put in some effort, but the stone door swung open with a simple push.
Beyond the door, it was still pitch-black. But from what Chen Changan could sense, the space here wasn't very large.
Most importantly... it was warm!
This warmth wasn't natural. It was the warmth of a place where someone lived.
Someone was here!
There was someone here!
"I know you're here. I mean no harm. I was just passing through, noticed something strange about this place, and came in to take a look," Chen Changan said calmly.
The other person was powerful. Chen Changan couldn't sense his cultivation, nor could he
