Upon entering the Stone Hall, the scene before him suddenly opened up.
An ancient, magnificent stone chamber appeared before his eyes.
The hall was rectangular, roughly a hundred feet high and over three hundred feet in both length and width, making it seem exceedingly spacious. Its ceiling was not flat but formed a natural dome, inlaid with remnants of what could still faintly be recognized as special crystals, though their luster had long since faded.
The hall's construction was uncomplicated, even somewhat rough and austere.
Eight enormous square stone pillars, each requiring several people to encircle it, supported the dome. Ancient patterns were carved into their surfaces, resembling clouds or beasts, but the erosion of ages had blurred them beyond recognition.
Heavy blue-gray slabs paved the floor, with thick dust accumulated in their seams. Only a path through the center had a thinner coating of dust, clearly indicating that someone had passed through recently.
The entire hall could be taken in at a glance. Aside from those eight pillars, it contained no furnishings or decorations, exuding a weathered emptiness and solemnity. Lamps were set at an angle into the pillars, their ever-burning flames casting a faint, hazy cold light that barely illuminated the surrounding areas.
Only in the depths of the hall were there three corridors, each ending in a stone door. The doors were ancient in style, and faint traces of flickering runes above their lintels remained active.
At that moment, the hall was deserted and silent, with only Lin Changheng's nearly inaudible breathing and heartbeat.
His gaze instantly locked onto the stone door beyond the left-hand corridor. Only behind that door had the formation been broken, allowing faint, hushed conversation and steady fluctuations of surging magical power to emerge. The two cultivators were clearly active inside.
