"Are you alright?"

Tang Lingchuan looked at the three soaked people and asked solemnly.

"We're fine. Were you also swept down by the water flow!?"

Fang Qingyu took off his soaked clothes and frowned as he looked at the crowd ahead.

A good few dozen.

And all of them were from the special training class.

"Yes, while walking, we were suddenly swept here."

Tang Lingchuan said helplessly from the side.

"Where is this place?"

Hearing this, Fang Qingyu turned around and surveyed the surroundings.

The pool behind roared like thunder.

The huge crack in the dome was like a giant beast's single eye, with a waterfall cascading down like a silver curtain, carrying broken stones and splashing a foot-high white foam in the pond.

On the shore where they stood, there was only one door.

All around were black cliffs.

"It should be a tomb."

Tang Lingchuan responded, as they had come earlier and had already surveyed the area thoroughly.

"Why only you? Where are the others?"

Wu Yan looked around and returned, suddenly asking.

This operation saw nearly the entire Divine Management Bureau dispatched.

Hundreds of martial artists and Divine Cultists came.

With such a rapid, sudden water flow, it's impossible none were affected.

"I don't know, I was the first to arrive here; apart from the special training class members, I haven't seen anyone else."

Tong Ran shook his head with a grave expression.

At this point...

Fang Qingyu realized the severity of the problem.

The sudden water flow was specifically targeting those who hadn't fully entered the Extraordinary realm.

It gathered all of them here.

The ultimate purpose remains unknown.

But such a powerful force exists.

How could it be something they could resist...

Additionally, communication devices are completely useless.

In other words.

Nearly all members of the special training class are here.

Rendering them isolated and helpless.

"Is there any way out?"

Fang Qingyu thought for a moment, frowning and asked.

"No."

Tong Ran shook his head, pointing to the dome's opening.

"Unless you can fly, braving the water flow to exit from that opening; otherwise... it seems the only way is to go through this door."

Then he turned to look at the stone door beside him.

Fang Qingyu looked at the intact door, frowned, and asked.

"What are you doing here then?"

Logically, they arrived earlier.

And the door is the only path.

Why stand here waiting in vain!?

"Waiting for you."

Tong Ran replied flatly.

Without a hint of embarrassment.

"Aside from waiting for you, there is a bit of luck."

Tang Lingchuan's expression was very bitter.

"After all, many martial artists and Divine Cultists came for this operation."

"Not a single one came."

"Understood."

After quickly understanding the current situation.

Fang Qingyu sat directly on the ground.

"Then let's wait a while longer, see if anyone else comes. I'll rest for now."

Just killed a Drowned Minion, which didn't spend much force.

Instead, it was the struggle in the water, activating the Eternal Night Curtain that left him exhausted.

While there is still time.

Might as well recover some strength.

Moreover, who knows, someone might come to rescue them soon.

...

Meanwhile.

At the Divine Management Bureau headquarters.

The command center was in chaos.

"Immediately request aid from the neighboring city's Divine Management Bureau."

Wu Yu calmly issued commands.

In fact, since the third special training class team went missing, the bureau had already implemented measures and ordered everyone to retreat.

But it happened too quickly...

In less than 10 minutes.

The action recorders of everyone blacked out and lost contact.

And hundreds of cameras on the main battlefield were shaking violently.

Then, Wu Yu switched the channel to private.

"Grandmaster Chen, I now hand over full command of the main battlefield to you, end the battle within 1 hour, is that possible!"

"Yes."

Grandmaster Chen's voice was brief but powerful.

Wu Yu let out a slight sigh of relief, then slammed the table.

"Now, contact all Martial Arts Hall instructors, and all active martial artists and cultists in the bureau, come with me!!"

The hundred members of the special training class.

Are Qingjian City's next generation of top Extraordinary seeds.

If this mission results in total casualties.

Then Qingjian City's top forces to suppress Life Ghosts and Alien God believers would be extinct.

Such responsibility.

He cannot bear, nor dare to bear.

...

Underground.

Half an hour passed.

Fang Qingyu and the others still hadn't seen any rescuers.

"It shouldn't be like this..."

Wu Yan frowned, eyes full of unease.

He knows the Divine Management Bureau best.

Their disappearance should have stirred the whole Qingjian City into chaos.

Why has no one come to rescue them?

"Let's wait a bit more."

"Maybe soon..."

Tang Lingchuan consoled from the side.

It could be said that everyone was comforting each other.

In a dark, unknown space.

Facing the powerful force that transported them here, it's unrealistic to say they aren't in despair.

All they can do is comfort each other.

Trying to avoid panic.

But before Tang Lingchuan finished his sentence.

The platform they stood on suddenly started shaking.

Everyone immediately stood up and looked at the ground in surprise.

When Fang Qingyu felt the descent, he rushed towards the stone door.

Simultaneously shouting.

"Quick, move!"

Everyone paused for a moment, but fortunately reacted quickly.

Hastily following Fang Qingyu.

"I'll count to three, two, one, and then push together."

Fang Qingyu stood in the middle of the stone door, spoke to the martial artists pushing the door from both sides.

The several-meter-high stone door.

Was pushed open with a loud bang.

Graah—

The moment the door opened a crack, thick black mist seeped through like a spider web from within.

But there was no time to care about what's inside.

The door was pushed open enough for two people to walk through.

Fang Qingyu led the way inside.

The crowd surged in behind him.

Behind them the stone door closed with a thunderous sound.

Everyone began to look curiously at the scene behind the stone door.

In front of them was a bronze palace the size of a football field.

Eighteen Coiled Dragon Copper Pillars supported the dome, the Luminous Pearls embedded in the dragon eyes were dust-covered, yet cast moving green shadows on the floor.

The entire palace was paved with some kind of Obsidian.

Utterly luxurious!!

"Look ahead!"

Wu Yan suddenly whispered.

Everyone followed his gaze, at the end of the nine-tiered black jade steps.

On a throne made of stacked bones, a woman in palace attire lounged.

She wore a seven-tiered golden silk buyao crown, gold thread embroidered stars adorned the Profound Phoenix Robe, and within the wide hanging sleeves, pale fingertips faintly showed.

Most suffocating was her visage.

Her face seemed forcibly frozen in the moment of death by some mighty power, her vermillion lips slightly parted as if to deliver a command, and a fractured bronze sword's tip protruded from the blood hole in her forehead.

Countless dark red chains pierced her limbs and body.

The other ends vanished into the dome.

Tong Ran initially followed and observed with a frown.

But as he kept watching, he suddenly staggered back a step, bumping into the copper pillar in fear.

His voice became sharp.

"God... Goddess!!?"

As his voice fell.

The entire palace suddenly started to echo with ethereal chime sounds.

The dust-covered bronze chime next to the throne began to sound on its own.

As if playing music to awaken the woman.

At the moment Fang Qingyu looked towards the woman's head, his heart sank into an icy abyss...
