Carson Flores stepped through the doorway, and the scenery before him changed in an instant.
As expected, there was spatial folding magic in this passage, and Carson now found himself on a vast plaza, teeming with an astonishing number of adventurers.
So many people?
Carson was taken aback, quickly sweeping his gaze around, and he noticed quite a few powerful sects.
Three of the Five Directions Sects were here: Mystic Dragon Mountain, Heaven One Sect, and Suspended Temple, along with several other formidable frontline sects, including the Three Saints Sect!
Carson imdiately recognized the leader of the Three Saints Sect, River Fulton of the Realm of the Mystic Elephant, accompanied by three other Great Land Sovereigns and over a dozen Celestial Horse Knights, exuding an extraordinary aura.
The appearance of Carson and his group attracted attention from the crowd, but they rely glanced over without further regard.
Judith Hamilton was shocked by the scene before her, whispering, "Weren’t we the first ones to co in?"
Callan Mason replied in a low voice, "We were trapped in that stone chamber for a day; they must have arrived during that ti."
Mack Conley murmured, "These sects don’t seem to have suffered any major losses. Could it be that they didn’t encounter any danger, or do they have a way to break through the passage?"
Chana Hinton added softly, "The monk Kong Xuan from Suspended Temple is skilled in spatial arts; perhaps all these people have sothing to do with him."
Callan Mason gave a wry smile, "We thought we could get a head start, but we ended up falling behind and taking a detour. Now, any opportunities here likely have nothing to do with us."
Carson remained silent, instinctively glancing at Ben Singleton.
Ben Singleton squinted slightly, scanning the surrounding crowd with a calm gaze, showing no trace of tension.
Ben’s perception was astonishing; as soon as Carson looked at him, he sensed it and turned his head instantly, their gazes clashing in the air.
Ben smiled faintly and turned away as if nothing had happened, but in that brief exchange, the previous confusion and disorientation due to amnesia were gone, replaced by depth and anticipation in his eyes.
Is he... not pretending anymore?
Suddenly, Carson felt that Ben was aware of his suspicions, and he seed to understand Carson’s secret as well.
No need for concealnt between these two who hide themselves.
After all, they had co this far.
Is Ben’s ultimate goal this Tomb of Emperor Howard?
Despite being in a massive space with at least hundreds of people, everyone remained quiet, sitting cross-legged in silence as if waiting for sothing.
Callan Mason, skilled in socializing, went out to probe around and returned with a shocked expression.
"There are living people in the tomb!"
Living people?
Weren’t the hundreds of individuals before them living? Or could they possibly be dead?
Uh, that’s not right...
Carson’s pupils shrank abruptly, and he instinctively lowered his voice, "Do you an that the owner of this tomb is still alive, or that there’s a keeper?"
"Yes."
Callan Mason’s face was full of shock as he glanced around quickly before answering in a low voice, "Rumor has it that those who ca in first were planning to conduct a thorough search here, but suddenly soone warned them not to move recklessly, or they would face mortal danger."
"A man spoke, his voice authoritative, but no one could pinpoint where the voice ca from. He instructed everyone to wait."
"Many suspect it might be Emperor Howard, so even the Five Directions Immortal Sect didn’t dare to act rashly, fearing they might provoke trouble."
Judith Hamilton whispered, "This tomb has existed for who knows how many millennia, and even this world has been destroyed, who could live that long? Could it be adventurers playing tricks, impersonating Emperor Howard to scare everyone, giving them the opportunity to loot treasures?"
Mack Conley nodded, "It’s not out of the question. But with so many strong fighters here, whether the claims are true or not, it’s not our place to intervene. All we need to do now is protect ourselves!"
"Yes!"
Everyone quietly sat down in a remote spot, while more people continued to be teleported into this vast space.
Carson was observing quietly when he suddenly heard footsteps from the side. Turning his head, he saw Luna Jas from the Sea Shark Sect walking briskly toward him.
Carson narrowed his eyes slightly, glancing around but not seeing Brodie Fleming, the leader of Sea Shark Sect.
Luna Jas stopped in front of Mack Conley and said coldly, "Weren’t you the first to co in? Why are you only arriving now?"
With an interrogative tone, Mack suppressed his murderous intent and replied icily, "It’s none of your business!"
Luna Jas raised an eyebrow, "Oh, you’ve grown quite bold. It’s been a while; have you grown so nerve?"
Mack retorted coldly, "What, do you want to fight? Aren’t you afraid of causing more trouble?"
Luna Jas was, of course, sowhat fearful. No matter how capable and arrogant he thought he was, he was still just under Daluo!
There were plenty of people here who could crush him with one hand, so how could he dare stir up trouble here?
