She extended her small hand again, pointing in the depths of the mist.There, faint ancient calls seemed to echo intermittently.
The call was long and mysterious, as if it had traversed countless ages and times to reach them.
It contained a strange magic power that irresistibly drew people to explore it.
Luo Qingchen listened intently, feeling a stir in his heart.
Could this ancient call be related to the Star Map fragments?
Or perhaps, it was connected to the legendary Star Altar?
He felt that the secrets hidden within the Heavenly Desperate Cliff were far deeper than he had imagined.
And the target of their journey might indeed lie in the direction the call came from.
The mist remained thick, yet under the influence of Bai Ling’er’s Dragon Power, a relatively clear area formed around the three of them.
The ancient call, like a lighthouse in the dark, guided them in the direction they needed to go.
Luo Qingchen took a deep breath, suppressing the flutter in his heart.
"Let’s go and take a look."
He said to Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan.
The two women had no objections.
They too were filled with curiosity about the mysterious call.
The three of them once again set out on their journey.
This time, they were even more cautious and vigilant than before.
Luo Qingchen used the Chaotic Power to protect his body, always alert to his surroundings.
Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan followed closely behind, not daring to become careless.
Bai Ling’er quietly stayed in Lin Wan’er’s arms, the golden mark on her forehead continuously emitting a faint light, dispelling the mist and guiding their way.
The closer they got to the direction from which the call came, the more chaotic the surrounding Spiritual Energy became.
The air was filled with an increasingly dense Evil Qi and resentment.
On the ground, there were remnants of skeletons and unidentified creature corpses all around.
These skeletons and corpses mostly appeared in a strange black color, obviously eroded by the chaotic Spiritual Energy here.
Occasionally, a few stray mutated Demonic Beasts or Lost Souls leaped out from the mist, attempting to attack them.
Yet, deterred by Bai Ling’er’s Dragon Power, these creatures dared not approach, only howling in unwillingness from a distance.
This allowed the trio to move much faster.
After about an hour, the mist ahead suddenly thinned significantly.
A massive stone wall appeared before them.
The stone wall stood dozens of meters high, with an ancient bluish-black color throughout its surface.
It was covered with weathered scars, clearly having existed for an incredibly long time.
On the stone wall, numerous dense, ancient runes were engraved.
These runes had strange shapes and complex strokes, completely different from any rune system currently known in the Cultivation World.
They exuded an aura of age and mystery, as if containing some kind of universal truth.
"This is..."
Luo Qingchen looked at the runes on the stone wall, a trace of astonishment flickering in his eyes.
He found that the style of these runes bore some resemblance to certain patterns on his Star Map bronze plate.
Su Xiaowan was also deeply interested in these ancient runes.
She hurried to the stone wall, wanting to study them closely.
However, just as her fingers were about to touch the stone wall.
The runes on the stone wall suddenly flared with a blinding green light.
A powerful Power of Restriction emanated from the stone wall.
"Watch out!"
Luo Qingchen’s expression changed, hurriedly pulling Su Xiaowan back.
Su Xiaowan felt an invisible force hit her, pushing her several steps back, nearly causing her to fall to the ground.
"Such strong restriction!"
Su Xiaowan said, shaken.
She hadn’t expected such a powerful restriction to be arranged around the stone wall.
If she had touched the wall just now, she might have been gravely injured.
Lin Wan’er also wore a serious expression.
She could sense that the runes on the stone wall contained extremely powerful energy.
This energy was ancient and obscure, entirely beyond their current understanding.
Luo Qingchen examined the restriction on the stone wall carefully.
He discovered that the restriction and runes were perfectly integrated, forming a single entity.
To break the restriction, one must first understand the meaning of these ancient runes.
However, the complexity of these runes far exceeded his expectations.
Just as the trio was studying the wall’s restriction.
The surrounding mist suddenly began to surge wildly.
Low growls came from all directions.
"Not good, something’s coming!"
Luo Qingchen’s face dropped as he immediately became alert.
He could sense several powerful auras rapidly approaching them.
These auras were filled with violence and bloodthirst, clearly unfriendly in nature.
"Shush, shush, shush!"
Dozens of dark figures emerged from the mist, encircling the three of them.
These dark figures were precisely the mutated Demonic Beasts encountered earlier.
But unlike before, these beasts were larger in stature, and their auras were even stronger.
Their eyes were blood-red, glinting with a ferocity that sought to devour.
Clearly, they were drawn by the energy fluctuations from touching the wall’s restriction.
Moreover, these beasts seemed exceptionally sensitive to the living’s aura.
Their target was directly focused on the trio of Luo Qingchen.
"Damn it, these things are here again!"
Su Xiaowan said in frustration.
She quickly took out the Array Plate, ready to set up a Defensive Array.
Lin Wan’er also wielded her Green Vine Whip, preparing for battle.
Luo Qingchen’s brows furrowed tightly.
The strength of these mutated Demonic Beasts was much greater than those they had encountered before.
Each one was comparable to a cultivator at the Initial Realm of the Golden Core stage.
