"Good stuff? What good stuff?" Lin Fan's heart stirred, sowhat expectant.
Since Emperor Jade ntioned it, that it could enhance his Realm, this thing must be no ordinary item!
"Brother Lin, let's go inside!" Xue Chen spoke up.
He took out a fiery-red jade from his storage treasure, heavily inscribed with ancient runes.
"This is the key to the Forbidden Land. Apart from myself, only a few Elders from the Heavenly Fire Sect have it. Now that the entire Heavenly Fire Sect is after us, holding this key and entering the Forbidden Land, they would never expect it!"
"Good!"
Lin Fan nodded.
Following that.
Xue Chen activated the Array of the Forbidden Land and together with Lin Fan, they entered the Forbidden Land.
The mont Lin Fan and Xue Chen stepped into the Forbidden Land, the Great Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder... and other Elders, along with Chen Xue, appeared outside the Forbidden Land.
"Letting it slip through to Xue Chen seemingly by accident, this kid would definitely co to the Forbidden Land, just as we thought. However… the only change is, that Lin Fan, unexpectedly ca out halfway! It really took us by surprise!" Fourth Elder frowned as he looked towards the direction of the Forbidden Land.
"Fourth Elder, I didn't expect it either! Lin Fan's power is too formidable, I nearly died by his hand." Chen Xue bowed his head, resentnt deep in his eyes.
He silently vowed that if he had the chance, he would surely leave Lin Fan with nowhere to be buried!
"Heh heh! Third brother, no need to worry, this Lin Fan won't get away! However, I didn't expect that this kid would still dare to co back, he really has so nerve! But, where is that woman? And that mysterious pearl, the energy contained within it is simply too enormous! If we can obtain it, maybe it could take our Cultivation to the next level!" Second Elder sneered darkly.
"Alright! Let's follow them inside too. As soon as Xue Chen makes a move and opens that place, we'll strike imdiately!" The Great Elder's eyes were dark and piercing as he stared intently towards the Forbidden Land.
"Good!"
Everyone nodded.
The next second.
Unnoticed, they entered into the Forbidden Land.
anwhile.
The instant these Elders from the Heavenly Fire Sect entered the Forbidden Land!
"Little Fan Fan, there's trouble!" Emperor Jade suddenly transmitted his voice, sounding very urgent.
"What's wrong?" Lin Fan halted in his steps.
Emperor Jade solemnly said: "The Elders from the Heavenly Fire Sect have followed us into the Forbidden Land, it seems… your and Xue Chen's whereabouts have been leaked, you two have fallen into a trap! However, these people haven't made their move yet, they seem to be waiting for sothing, don't give yourselves away!"
"The Elders from the Heavenly Fire Sect followed in?" Lin Fan was quite surprised.
He thought that their tracks wouldn't be discovered.
But unexpectedly, their whereabouts had been disclosed!
"Yes."
"They don't intend to act?"
"Not for the ti being, I overheard their conversation, it seems… they are hoping for Xue Chen to open a certain place, hence, they haven't made a move, once Xue Chen opens that place, these people will spring into action!" Emperor Jade explained.
Lin Fan secretly nodded: "Good, as long as they don't make a move imdiately, I still have a chance!"
Lin Fan's eyes narrowed, a deep chill flashing within.
However.
He made no move to announce it, and continued walking deeper into the Heavenly Fire Sect's Forbidden Land with Xue Chen.
This was a massive range of volcanic mountains, as Lin Fan and Xue Chen moved deeper, the temperature kept rising.
Eventually, Xue Chen had to bring out a Magic Artifact to shield against the terrifying heat.
However, surprisingly, Lin Fan seed unaffected, as if nothing was amiss; he neither sweated nor even felt a hint of the blazing heat!
"Brother Lin, what's going on? Aren't you hot?" Xue Chen looked at Lin Fan in surprise.
"It's alright."
Lin Fan smiled faintly.
Hot?
For him, it was nothing at all!
Within Lin Fan's body, at all tis, the Chaos Golden Body Technique was at work, absorbing any energy that ca near him subtly and silently.
It was as if Lin Fan's body was a huge vortex!
Heat, too, is a form of energy!
And the heat nearby, once it approached Lin Fan, would be instantly absorbed by him.
So, this bit of heat had no effect on Lin Fan at all.
A mont later.
"Brother Lin, we have arrived!" Xue Chen stopped in front of a huge stone gate, which was a hundred zhang tall, imnsely massive.
What's the concept here?
A hundred zhang is equivalent to three hundred ters. On Earth, three ters is roughly the height of one floor, so a hundred zhang is almost like a hundred floors!
"Such a big gate?" Lin Fan was sowhat surprised and taken aback.
"Brother Lin, when the gates are opened later, don't be surprised, or shocked… stay calm…" Xue Chen spoke up, even turning to give Lin Fan a deep look, which made Lin Fan feel very uncomfortable, as if tinged with a sense of unease.
How to put it… it didn't seem like a man's gaze… but rather like that of a resentful woman!
"Wait!"
Lin Fan frowned, as if he had suddenly thought of sothing.
"What's up?" Xue Chen looked at Lin Fan curiously.
After thinking it over, Lin Fan decided to inform Xue Chen about the Heavenly Fire Sect Elders following behind them.
Xue Chen shuddered after hearing this!
"What..."
"Shh! Brother Xue, don't show any abnormal reaction, we must not let others detect anything unusual, try to remain calm!" Lin Fan transmitted his voice.
"Okay."
Xue Chen took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and transmitted back, "But what should we do next? If I open the gate, these people will definitely rush up, and at that point..."
"Stay calm!" Lin Fan thought for a mont and asked, "Brother Xue, after the gate is opened, can it be closed imdiately? Or say, can it be opened just a crack so that my Divine Sense can get inside and then close imdiately?"
Lin Fan's idea was to enter with Xue Chen using the Instant Escape technique the mont the gate was opened.
Then.
Close the gate!
Since this gate can block the Elders of Heavenly Fire Sect, and they are looking to watch Xue Chen opening this gate.
Then, the Elders of Heavenly Fire Sect definitely have no way and no ans to open this gate themselves.
Otherwise, why would they waste ti letting Xue Chen open it?
"This... there's no way! The area around this gate is controlled by an Array. Once opened, it will either fully open or fully close; there is no possibility of opening just a crack…" Xue Chen shook his head.
The next second.
A thought suddenly struck Lin Fan's mind!
"Brother Xue, I have a plan now, open the gate!" Lin Fan grinned.
"Are you sure?" Xue Chen looked at Lin Fan skeptically.
"Of course, open the gate!"
"Okay!"
Xue Chen took a deep breath, walked up to the gate, placed his palm in a specific spot, and activated the Array.
Then.
A thunderous roar resounded!
The gate responded by opening!
A surge of overwhelming Spiritual Power rushed forward, like a flood breaching a dam, enveloping Lin Fan completely as if he were subrged in an ocean of Spiritual Energy!
Lin Fan finally understood why Xue Chen had told him not to be surprised!
