The black qi within the space was thick, and divine sense could not be used. Chen Lin advanced with great caution.
Zhu Yunyan followed close behind, holding a palm-sized round disc and constantly changing its orientation, seemingly sensing something.
Elsewhere.
Yang Qianxing and Li Haofeng were also advancing cautiously.
Suddenly, Yang Qianxing frowned and stopped.
"Senior, what's wrong?"
Li Haofeng hurriedly stopped as well, cautiously scanning their surroundings.
"Something's wrong."
Yang Qianxing looked deep in thought.
But even after thinking for a long while, his brow remained tightly furrowed, his expression bewildered.
After a moment's consideration, his expression shifted. A vortex appeared between his brows, countless stars twinkling within it like a vast starry sky.
Then he raised a hand and tapped the space between his brows.
Countless rays of starlight burst forth, forming a projection before him. Images flashed through it, depicting the scenes of him, Chen Lin, and the others entering the space within the tower's fourth layer.
He moved his fingers, speeding up the changing images until they finally froze just before the group entered the passage.
"Do you remember this person?"
Yang Qianxing pointed at a figure in the image and questioned Li Haofeng.
Li Haofeng leaned closer for a look and immediately said, "Isn't that Xu Chenxuan? He left through that Teleportation Gate with Xue Yueyi. Who knows whether they returned to the God Pillar Realm?"
As he finished speaking, regret surfaced in his eyes once again.
Yang Qianxing moved the images forward again, and Li Haofeng's gaze turned astonished.
"He entered the passage?"
In the image, Chen Lin entered the passage first, followed by Zhu Yunyan, then Xu Chenxuan.
Yang Qianxing and Li Haofeng were the last to enter.
"That can't be right. If he came in, where is he?"
Li Haofeng was suspicious.
