It turned out that Di Jingtian was now bound by heavy shackles and had lost the ability to move freely.

During his days of confinement, he gradually realized that this place was a vast ancient tomb, clearly a resting place meticulously crafted for him by some peerless expert.

However, what puzzled him was who had imprisoned them here.

Di Jingtian felt deeply guilty and helpless—he was now imprisoned and powerless, unable to stay by Ye Ling's side to protect her.

At this moment, Ling'er has lost all her spiritual power, and there must be many mysteries and traps hidden in this tomb.

He was deeply worried, fearing that Ling'er might accidentally trigger those deadly mechanisms, leading to unpredictable and serious consequences.

That's why I spoke up to stop it.

Sighs echoed in the air... He couldn't help but worry about the safety of his other companions.

Eaglewood, Jade Bamboo, Rhyme and Shade... Where are they now? What is their condition? Everything is still unknown.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, ten days have passed. The highly anticipated martial arts tournament has finally begun.

At the same time, Ye Ying and the cute little white fox also arrived at this place.

Holding the little white fox, Ye Ying stepped into a vast plaza. Looking around, she saw towering peaks piercing the clouds in all directions. Brilliant sunlight pierced through the clouds, cascading down like a golden waterfall, illuminating the entire plaza and creating a dazzling spectacle.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Ying quietly walked to the foot of a large tree at the edge of the square.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, she lightly leaped and landed steadily on a thick tree branch.

After standing still, she looked down and surveyed the surrounding area. She saw that the square was crowded with people, and many martial arts masters had gathered there.

Each of them possesses unique skills and exudes an awe-inspiring aura.

They come from all corners of the country, belonging to various sects, each carrying the honor and mission of their respective sects, and representing different forces in the martial arts world.

This grand martial arts competition was a magnificent event, one of the most important annual events in the martial arts world.

Amidst the cacophony of voices all around, a vague outline of the martial arts tournament gradually emerged in Ye Ying's mind.

At this moment, her heart was filled with endless excitement and anticipation.

After all, this was the first time in her life that she had witnessed the legendary martial arts tournament in person; before this, she had only seen it on television.

Now that she could personally experience this truly awe-inspiring phenomenon, she naturally couldn't contain her excitement...

Since embarking on this journey, Ye Ying has heard many legendary stories about the martial arts tournament from passersby she encountered along the way.

Over time, she came to realize that this martial arts tournament was of great significance to her—only by participating in it and achieving final victory could she obtain that crucial key.

Only by firmly grasping this key can we successfully accomplish the arduous mission we are entrusted with.

This is not only an opportunity for her to showcase her skills and prove her abilities, but also a hurdle she must overcome before achieving her goal. Furthermore, it represents all the arduous efforts she has made since her grandparents disappeared without a trace.
