Whoosh!
Upon entering the Silken Cloud Grotto-Heaven, Lin Mo took a deep breath and felt his spirits lift.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy here was more than twice as dense as that atop Silken Cloud Peak outside. This truly deserved to be called a blessed grotto-heaven.
After all, Silken Cloud Palace was one of the Twelve Ancient Sects. Its Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was already far denser than that of ordinary sects, and far surpassed even the Azure Cloud Sect Master Peak.
Clearly, a formidable Spirit-Gathering Grand Formation existed within this grotto-heaven. It could not compare to those of Primordial Antiquity, of course, but it was still exceedingly rare.
From what that senior palace master said, the creatures here seem extremely aggressive. They'll stop cultivators from approaching the sacred object...
Lin Mo stood where he was, surveyed his surroundings, and silently considered the situation.
Although she had not stated it outright, her words had clearly hinted at it.
Besides the grotto-heaven's unusual creatures, the ten Silken Cloud Palace disciples were his competitors too. They certainly would not let him pass the trial easily.
After all, the sacred object's blessing could only be bestowed once, on a single person. Those Silken Cloud Palace disciples would surely fight for it with all their might. Every one of them was a potential opponent!
Ten Golden Core cultivators from Silken Cloud Palace, all women. I've never been one to hit women...
Lin Mo grinned and put the matter out of his mind. Silently circulating the Turtle Breath Art, he concealed his aura completely, then chose a direction at random and set off on foot.
There were no flight-restricting wards inside the Silken Cloud Grotto-Heaven, but Lin Mo had no intention of exposing himself and becoming the target of every arrow.
