The Exit Vanishes
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Xue. Please be careful as well; the White Tiger may awaken at any time and return to the mountaintop."
Mu Yunxin looked deeply concerned.
Xue Gu nodded and lightly headed towards the mountaintop.
Jie Ku follows closely behind.
After they could no longer see each other's backs, Mu Yunxin to Song Wen Wendao.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, I believe you. The White Tiger's lair is not on the mountaintop."
Song Wen frowned slightly and asked, "If that's the case, then what exactly were you trying to do just now?"
Mu Yunxin smiled dismissively.
"If I didn't say that, how could I lure those two idiots to the mountaintop? If they don't go to the mountaintop, who will help us lure the White Tiger away?"
"Do you have a way to lure the White Tiger to the mountaintop?" Song Wen asked.
"Fellow Daoist, you have used Thunder Method and have personally been to the mountaintop. Even with clouds and mist, you should be able to discern the location of the mountaintop. If you unleash a Thunder Method and land it on the mountaintop, it will surely alert the White Tiger, causing it to go to the mountaintop to investigate. With Xue Gu and Jie Ku attracting the White Tiger's attention, the three of us can take the opportunity to enter the stone hall," Mu Yunxin himself.
Upon hearing this, Song Wen did not reply, but instead fell into deep thought.
Mu Yunxin's plan sounds feasible.
However, it's not without risk.
Activating Thunder Method will generate strong spiritual energy fluctuations.
If the White Tiger were not attracted by the Thunder Method, but instead followed the fluctuations of spiritual energy...
That would expose Song Wen, Mu Yunxin, and Rong Jingyun.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, please decide quickly. If we delay too long, Xue Gu and Jie Ku will descend the mountain. Wouldn't we miss a golden opportunity?" Mu Yunxin urged.
Song Wen turned his head and looked at Rong Jingyun.
"Elder Rong, what do you think of this plan?"
Rong Jingyun said, "Although it's a bit risky, it's a brilliant plan."
Song Wen nodded and said, "Since you both agree, let's proceed according to this plan."
Compared to Rong Jingyun Mu Yunxin, he had an advantage in escape techniques, and also had Death-Substitute Puppet.
If they really face the White Tiger, with the two of them delaying White Tiger, there's no need to worry about them not being able to escape.
The three of them agreed and immediately headed towards the stone hall.
Less than fifteen minutes later, the three reappeared below the cliff beneath the stone palace.
After signaling Rong Jingyun Mu Yunxin to be on guard, Song Wen began to unleash the Great Cavern Divine Thunder.
Xue Gu and Jie Ku set off before Song Wen and the other two. They should have already reached the summit by now.
Under the extremely tense gazes of Mu Yunxin and Rong Jingyun, Song Wen finished casting the Thunder Incantation.
Strands of lightning appeared among the clouds high in the sky, then quickly converged.
"Snap."
A loud bang.
A bolt of lightning, as thick as a bucket, struck the mountaintop.
"Roar!"
The White Tiger inside the stone hall suddenly awoke.
As it watched the lightning descend from the sky, it couldn't help but worry about its lair.
Although the tiger's den was empty, it was, after all, the place where it had lived for over a hundred years.
This is the place where White Tiger feels most comfortable and relaxed!
There is no room for error!
The White Tiger immediately opened the stone palace gate, flapped its wings, and flew towards the mountaintop.
Upon seeing this, Song Wen and his two companions below the cliff perked up. They no longer bothered to conceal their auras, but instead used their most proficient escape techniques to fly up the cliff and head towards the stone hall.
The plaza outside the stone hall is about two li wide.
The three of them shot across the square like arrows released from a bow.
Because they needed to reach the stone palace gate in the shortest possible distance, the three of them dared not fly high and instead flew close to the ground.
The three sped past, the strong wind they created stirring up the snow on the square. As a result, snowflakes drifted down behind them.
Song Wen took the lead and charged ahead.
Rong Jingyun followed closely behind.
Mu Yunxin was left behind.
However, the distance between the three was not far, only about one or two zhang (approximately 3.3-6 meters).
Just as the stone palace gate was in front of them, two figures suddenly rushed out from the side.
It turned out to be Jie Ku and Xue Gu.
The two people who should have been on the mountaintop suddenly appeared in the square outside the stone hall.
The two attacked from the side and rear of the stone hall.
"Mu Yunxin, you shameless slut. I've treated you so well, and you actually used me, luring me into risking my life. Truly, the heart of a woman is the most poisonous."
"If Jie Ku and I hadn't been cautious and not gone to the summit ourselves, but instead sent the 'Dark Sting Bee' to scout ahead, Jie Ku and I would probably have perished in the tiger's belly and become your stepping stones as you left the secret realm,"
Xue Gu ran towards the stone hall while cursing loudly.
Upon seeing Xue Gu and Jie Ku appear, Song Wen and the other two's expressions changed drastically.
The fact that these two didn't go to the mountaintop means that no one is diverting the White Tiger's attention. Once the White Tiger discovers that the mountaintop is empty, it will definitely return immediately.
But the arrow was already on the bowstring, and there was no turning back.
The three of them had no choice but to press on and continue their charge toward the stone hall.
Song Wen was the first to step into the stone hall, followed by Rong Jingyun.
Mu Yunxin met Xue Gu and Jie Ku outside the gate.
Perhaps out of concern, Song Wen and Rong Jingyun, who had entered the stone hall first, closed the gate, intending to use them to lure the White Tiger.
Although Xue Gu hated Mu Yunxin to the core, he did not lay a hand on her.
Both sides exercised restraint and entered the stone hall together.
However, upon seeing the situation inside the stone hall, all five of them turned ashen-faced.
Inside the stone hall, apart from a few pillars, there was nothing else.
Where is the exit to the outside world?
"Where's the exit? Why is there no exit from the secret realm?"
Mu Yunxin turned deathly pale, her expression filled with disbelief.
"Roar!"
The roar of the White Tiger came from high above.
Upon discovering that the mountaintop was deserted, the intelligent White Tiger realized that it had been lured away from the mountain.
The White Tiger swooped down from the sky, heading straight for the stone palace gate.
"Close the door quickly!" Rong Jingyun exclaimed.
Mu Yunxin, Jie Ku, and Xue Gu reacted and each used their spiritual power to move the stone door.
With a "bang".
The stone gate, nearly three zhang high, slammed shut with a loud bang.
Song Wen, who was the first to enter the stone hall, did not pay any attention to the matter of the White Tiger.
He immediately sensed something strange about the stone hall.
But for a moment, I couldn't quite grasp what was wrong.
After staring at the main hall for a while, he finally realized what was wrong with this stone hall.
The proportions of the stone hall are out of proportion.
Generally speaking, the depth of a stone hall is greater than its width.
But this stone hall seemed rather strange.
The depth and width of the stone hall are almost equal.
Song Wen raised his hand and waved it, and three ten-foot-long thunder spears crashed down on the stone wall directly in front of him.
"Boom!"
Three thunder spears landed in the same spot on the stone wall.
A flash of lightning, and pebbles flew everywhere.
The stone used for the wall is extremely hard and was not penetrated.
The thunder spear left only a deep pit on it, about half a zhang wide and three chi deep.
Song Wen raised his hand, and three more thunder spears shot out.
Xue Gu and his three companions, who had just closed the stone door, were taken aback when Song Wen suddenly attacked the stone wall. After a moment of surprise, they reacted.
Each of them summoned a Spirit Artifact and attacked the same spot on the stone wall.
With the combined efforts of the five, a hole as tall as a person was blasted into the stone wall.
This stone wall is nearly ten feet thick.
Looking through the stone cave, you can see that behind the stone wall, there is another secret room.
In the center of the secret chamber, a Black Hole floats in mid-air; it is the exit of the secret realm.
