Chapter 378: Chapter 389: Eerie Scene
He Juan’s letter stated that if you keep walking westward from the manor, you’ll see two great waterfalls appear on either side of two mountains, and that will be the final destination.
Now, Chu Linfeng and the others see that not far ahead there are two mountains, with a canyon in between. There are huge waterfalls flowing down from both sides of the mountains; the water is swift, splashing high, with a continuous rumbling echoing through the valley.
Below the waterfalls is a river, not very wide but so deep you cannot see the bottom. The five of them walk over slowly.
If you’re talking about scenery, this place is definitely a beauty, with many trees and flowers. Together with the waterfalls on both sides of the cliffs, it gives a sense of entering a fairyland.
But to say this is the teleportation site of Canglan Ancient Land is sowhat unbelievable. Chu Linfeng looked around and found no strange phenona, such as writing on the cliffs or any peculiar buildings; there was nothing here.
Chu Linyue and Yuwen Qingkong, however, were picking brightly colored wildflowers nearby, indulging their childlike antics. Chu Linfeng found a clean stone to sit on, pondering in his mind where the location of the Teleportation Gate might be.
Ouyang Qian and ng Ji then sat not far from him; nobody spoke, silently admiring the surrounding beauty, appearing deeply enchanted.
"Sister Yue’Er, where do you think the teleportation entrance might be? Why set the Teleportation Gate here, and moreover, have it hidden?" Chu Linfeng asked the Sword Spirit in his mind.
At this ti, only the Sword Spirit, an all-knowing guide, could answer his underlying doubts.
"This place may look beautiful, but it is not as you believe. Finding the Teleportation Gate is actually simple. Although it is invisible, it has certain energy fluctuations. You only need to use your Divine Sense to observe with martial insight and should be able to discover it. However, when you uncover the situation here, try not to be surprised; it might be real, or it might be an illusion.
Just rember that the teleportation gate is real; the rest you don’t need to worry about," the Sword Spirit said.
Chu Linfeng felt sowhat puzzled by her words but still slowly cald his heart and began to sense the surroundings.
The sound of the waterfalls initially continued ringing in his ears, but gradually faded away.
Though his eyes were closed, so images began to appear in his mind; there appeared to be no waterfalls nor any so-called mountains, but rather a towering structure.
The images beca clearer, revealing a sect, though it was utterly destroyed, with dismbered limbs and bodies scattered across the ground, and the earth stained in blood.
A great teleportation array stood full of people, each with a sword impaled through their chests, blood endlessly flowing, seemingly dead but all standing without falling.
Even more terrifying was a black-clad masked figure devouring a young girl’s body, blood-stained mouth presenting a grueso sight.
After a while, the image in Chu Linfeng’s mind suddenly changed; a middle-aged man dressed in white appeared, seeing the hellish scene and instantly becoming enraged, engaging in a battle with the dark-clothed figure. Their fight was earth-shattering, the sun and moon darkening, each clash causing the space and ground to tremble incessantly.
In the end, the middle-aged man defeated the dark-clothed figure, who fled imdiately, leaving the man to spit out a mouthful of blood after his departure.
He then gathered all the people together, creating a fla in his hand to cremate them all. Finally, he shot a beam of fiery energy onto the teleportation gate, which vanished, leaving behind only four large characters.
Chu Linfeng saw these characters clearly and felt a surge of tension as they turned out to be the words "Lonely Demon Venerable."
After this mont froze, Chu Linfeng’s mind erupted in pain, awakening him to find the tranquil mountainous scenery was hardly able to connect with the images just seen.
Feeling incredible shock, he touched his forehead, finding it covered in fine sweat, and asked the Sword Spirit: "Sister Yue’Er, what on earth is going on here?"
"What did you see?" The Sword Spirit didn’t answer directly but instead questioned him.
"I saw four words on the teleportation gate: Lonely Demon Venerable." Chu Linfeng answered.
"That’s right, seeing these words ans you are the savior of this world. Everything here is filled with mysteriousness; what each person sees is different, but the actual truth is what you’ve seen.
I could only see the middle-aged man defeat the Black Night People, and then the images cut off, whereas you saw the end, indicating sothing profound. Did you see the face of that middle-aged man?" the Sword Spirit said.
"I don’t think I did, but he feels very unfamiliar yet sohow familiar," Chu Linfeng said.
"That man is actually the Green Frost Sect Master; it’s sothing that occurred before the great battle at the Divine Battlefield. You originally were a major disciple of this sect but due to your exceptional talent, your strength rapidly surged, breaking into the Saint Martial Realm at under thirty years old.
And the figure in black is a traitor of the Demon Realm, Dugu Demon Venerable. The reason for destroying your sect remains unknown.
However, one thing is certain: this matter is certainly related to you. As for how he later incited wars with the Demon Race, you and ng Ji must investigate. This place is indeed the Canglan Ancient Land, rely sealed by you, leaving only a teleportation gate," Sword Spirit explained.
The more Chu Linfeng listened, the less he understood, finding it hard to believe this is truly Canglan Ancient Land. Stabilizing his Heart Spirit, he glanced at Ouyang Qian and ng Ji.
Noticing they seed to also have realized sothing, their eyes tightly shut, only then Chu Linfeng ca to understand the place is indeed as the Sword Spirit said, filled pervasively with mysteriousness.
Not long after, the two won opened their eyes; upon seeing Chu Linfeng gazing at them, they asked in unison: "Lin Feng, there’s sothing unusual here; during ditation, I actually saw so images in my mind."
" too, but I wonder what did you see?" Chu Linfeng inquired.
"I saw this place used to be a huge sect, but it’s unclear how it declined; the image was vague and unclear," Ouyang Qian described.
ng Ji looked at Chu Linfeng saying: "Lin Feng, what I saw was different from Qian’er; this place was wiped out, death everywhere, blood covering the ground. Among them, I saw a person, a person hard for
to believe."
"Who was it?" Chu Linfeng asked.
"The person was you..."
