The bottomless Dragon Pool stretched into unfathomable depths!
Cao Jinxing followed the others down a hundred feet. The water grew colder and colder, and when he looked down, all beneath his feet was still pitch-black.
The enormous mountain beneath the pool resembled a dormant behemoth, exuding a cold, sinister gloom.
Heavenly Secret Twenty-Five submerged first and hovered before the mountainside.
Before him stood a massive stone door set into the rock face, bearing a relief of a Qilin throwing back its head in a long roar.
-Originally, a water-curtain barrier had concealed this entrance. An expert had used Qimen Dunjia to alter the configuration of the mountains and waters, making people "look without seeing" and "touch without feeling." Anyone who stared at it too long would even fall into an illusion and ultimately drown!
Throughout the world, those capable of unraveling this barrier were few and far between.
Heavenly Secret Twenty-Five was one of them.
It could only be called fate: the time had come for the "immortal mountain" to emerge into the world.
The stone door had been installed for convenient passage. If it could close, it could naturally open.
Heavenly Secret Twenty-Five stared at the Nine-Palace Lock in the center of the stone door. Rather than attempt anything rashly, he took out the [Heaven-Covering Formation], pressed his palms together with the Formation Disk between them, and began using his Faxiang power to seek a divination from heaven!
Surging true qi poured into the Formation Disk.
The [Heaven-Covering Formation] released streams of brilliant light, sparkling radiantly!
Behind him, Cao Jinxing's expression darkened at the sight. He recalled how this old bastard had blocked their way and forced him to exchange the [Heaven-Covering Formation] for the [Wind-Raising Formation]...
I'll settle the score with you later!
