"I thought that guy from the Holy Kingdom would arrive first."
The moment Mu Qing entered this space, he heard a familiar voice.
Looking up, he found Yin Tian standing before him.
"That guy probably won't be coming. I slaughtered him halfway here," Mu Qing said indifferently.
A flicker of surprise crossed Yin Tian's eyes.
He knew Ji Haimu's strength. He had not expected Mu Qing to kill him outright!
More importantly, Mu Qing did not seem to have suffered any injuries.
Mu Qing ignored Yin Tian's expression and looked around. The place was somewhat eerie, but the space was very small. There was only a residence before them.
Above the residence hung a plaque bearing two words...
Slaughter Hall!
Aside from the residence, there was a lake not far away and a patch of farmland, though all the crops upon it had withered.
Not only that, but the trees surrounding the residence had all dried up as well.
Mu Qing frowned and asked, "This is the fifth trial?"
It was somewhat beyond his expectations.
Wasn't the fifth trial supposed to be a place for a great battle?
Yet the situation before him did not seem to be so.
Yin Tian stepped forward and looked up at the plaque inscribed with the words Slaughter Hall. "I don't think this is the fifth trial. This is the core area of Slaughter Hall."
"The core area?" Mu Qing was startled.
He immediately released his soul power to probe this small space.
If this truly was the core area, didn't that mean the Supreme Heart was here?
Yin Tian seemed unconvinced by Mu Qing's action and advised, "There's no need to investigate. If the Supreme Heart were truly that easy to find, it would be an insult to the word 'Supreme.'"
After all,
