Dim and cold Desert Ancient Forbidden Land!
Shi Feng and two others were rapidly shuttling through the air when suddenly a range of mountains appeared ahead; there was actually such a range of mountains in this desert.
"I didn't expect there to be such peaks in this Ancient Forbidden Land! This is sothing unheard of." Huo Yu said, looking at the mountains.
"I have heard of it!" At this mont, Lei Lin's expression turned unusually solemn, as he slowly spoke.
"Oh?" Huo Yu lightly exclaid "Oh" and looked at him.
At this mont, even Shi Feng turned his head towards Lei Lin.
For such peaks to suddenly appear in a desert, Shi Feng was also quite curious.
And Lei Lin, whose expression turned unusually solemn, slowly opened his mouth once again: "Rumor has it, those peaks are called the Soul-breaking Mountain Range. Ordinary people entering this ominous land won't see them.
Yet the three of us, one might say, are quite unfortunate to encounter them today!"
"Soul-breaking Mountain Range?" Huo Yu muttered the na, and in this ominous and fierce land, just uttering these four characters made it feel even more foreboding!
"Soul-breaking Mountain Range?" Even Shi Feng began to mutter the na of those peaks.
Lei Lin did not continue and turned his head to look behind. Then he said: "Indeed!"
When Lei Lin uttered the words "Indeed," Shi Feng and Huo Yu imdiately felt sothing was wrong, and simultaneously turned to look behind.
"Huh!" A sound full of shock and doubt ca from Huo Yu's mouth.
The land behind them should have been an endless desert. But when they turned around, they saw that behind them was also a range of mountains!
Not only behind them but even to their left and right, combined with the front, at this mont, they could say they were surrounded by those mountains.
"What the heck is happening here?" Huo Yu exclaid once more in shock. And at this mont, he suddenly saw that the desert beneath them was rapidly retreating, transforming in an instant into a chaotic stone territory.
In just a mont, they could no longer see a single trace of the desert.
The bodies of the three abruptly paused at this mont.
"Could we have entered a powerful Illusion Array?" Scanning all around with his gaze, Huo Yu spoke again.
Then he sensed it; even though the desert retreated, the feeling of being watched secretly still hadn't disappeared.
It seems that unknown presence was still following them.
After hearing Huo Yu's words, Shi Feng nodded and said: "This should be a powerful Illusion Array!"
At this mont, Shi Feng not only scanned his gaze across all directions, but also used Soul Power to sense all around.
In the blink of an eye, the earth and sky changed. If it's not that they entered another's Illusion Array or were tricked by another's Illusion Technique, then what is it? Especially with their own eyes, seeing the desert below turning into a dense chaos of stones.
"It's said this is not an Illusion Array." At this ti, Lei Lin, whose expression remained solemn, suddenly opened his mouth and spoke.
Following this, he continued: "According to legend, those who see the Soul-breaking Mountain Range are taken by a Mysterious Force into another space. Then, their souls will definitely break here!"
"Break their souls here? Given that you know the legend, it must be true that so people entered here and left, to spread what happened here." Huo Yu voiced disbelief at Lei Lin's words.
"No! No one has ever left here alive, at least I've never heard of it." Lei Lin maintained a solemn face, incredibly serious and incredibly certain as he spoke.
Then he countered Huo Yu: "If you and I die in this Soul-breaking Mountain Range, do you think no one will know?"
Upon listening to Lei Lin's words, Huo Yu gradually understood that they both had Secret Techniques implented by elders from the Sacred Land. If they perish here, their final monts would be sent back to the Sacred Land.
Lei Lin ant that those who once entered the Soul-breaking Mountain Range had the Secret Techniques of their elders on them, and the legend that spread from here was what they conveyed before dying.
Lei Lin said: "Many years ago, a genius from the Thunder God Sacred Land, a genius from the Jiangg Family, the Holy Maiden from Peach Blossom Palace, and several other geniuses from various Great Forces, all entered the Desert Ancient Forbidden Land to explore, but they all entered this Soul-breaking Mountain Range!"
"And then all those people died in this Soul-breaking Mountain Range?" Huo Yu asked in astonishnt.
He hadn't heard of this secret tale.
Lei Lin nodded to Huo Yu and said:
"From the images sent back to the Great Forces, there was no sign of them being attacked by any creature, yet one by one, they fled in extre terror and were each killed by that invisible presence. So were dismbered, others had their heads removed; anyway, each manner of death was extrely tragic."
"This... Soul-breaking Mountain Range! Not a single soul has ever left alive from the Soul-breaking Mountain Range!" Hearing Lei Lin's words, Huo Yu felt goosebumps rise all over his body, and he felt even worse.
Following this, he looked at Shi Feng and inwardly said: "This Demon! Seeking his own demise! Of all places, he chooses to enter the Desert Ancient Forbidden Land to seek thrill!"
"Let's go! Let's check out what's ahead." Shi Feng still had an indifferent deanor as he spoke. His disposition seed as though he hadn't really listened to Lei Lin's words.
Yet, Shi Feng then said: "I, for one, want to see if this Soul-breaking Mountain Range really ensures that those who enter must break their souls." After speaking, Shi Feng's figure rapidly flashed toward the direction of the mountains ahead.
Watching that rapidly departing silhouette, Huo Yu turned his head to Lei Lin with a bitter smile and said: "I never thought, from the day we were born, it was destined for us to beco sworn enemies, but now, we're to die here together; it seems this is fate!"
"Where did this person suddenly co from? How co I have never heard of such a figure on the Wilderness Continent before?" Lei Lin asked Huo Yu, as he watched the rapidly departing figure.
"Let's chase after him; I'll tell you slowly along the way. This is completely a Demon; if you don't want to suffer any more, you better behave, eh!" Huo Yu said with a long sigh at the end.
Then his figure started to move as well, transforming into firelight, rushing rapidly to the front.
"Let's go!" A low shout sounded, and Lei Lin imdiately transford into purple Thunder Light, following Huo Yu. Yet as he thought of entering this Soul-breaking Land, Lei Lin also sighed: "Ah!
Soul-breaking Mountain Range, oh Soul-breaking Mountain Range! Am I, Lei Lin, really to break my soul here? I, Lei Lin, still young, will eventually beco the Sacred Lord of the Thunder God Sacred Land, to be the preeminent gaze across the world. If I really break my soul here, I am truly unwilling!"
