Since he obtained the Purple Gold Pagoda, it has been difficult for it to even move, let alone react. Now it actually shook, and almost stunned him!
"Is this thing trying to harm me?" Su Yang's lips twitched.
Just as Su Yang was wondering what was going on, a series of hurried footsteps came from not far away.
Su Yang turned his head slightly and saw that the person who came was Su Huang.
Upon seeing Su Yang, Su Huang hurriedly clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Ancestor, may we go to the Elder Hall for a chat?"
Su Yang nodded silently.
He knew that Su Huang must have discovered something, and that things might not be so simple.
On the way, Su Huang briefly told Su Yang about the recent situation, the mysterious cause of Su Zhu's death, what Su Zhan had seen, and some discoveries he had made in the Ye family's secret room.
After the two arrived at the Elder Hall, Su Huang said, "It seems that something was sealed at the bottom of the Ye family's secret chamber before. I guess it was a strange beast that the ancestor killed. But when I went down there, I also discovered that there seemed to be something even more terrifying trapped deep at the bottom. And that thing should be the one that is causing the current instability of spiritual energy."
After listening to Su Huang's analysis, Su Yang nodded slightly: "So you want me to go and take a look?"
Su Huang said with embarrassment, "After all... such beings are at least as strong as the alien beasts that our ancestor dealt with last time. With my strength, I am no match for them at all."
Su Yang smiled faintly: "Knowing that you are weak is not a bad thing. In that case, I will accompany you to see what exactly caused such a huge change here."
Su Huang was overjoyed: "Alright, I'll lead the way right away!"
The two sped south, and along the way, many Su family disciples were heading back.
When Su Huang ordered everyone to evacuate, they also notified many people to evacuate together. At first, they might not have felt anything, but after they realized that the earthquake was becoming more and more obvious, they began to feel a little scared.
Watching the Su family disciples leave, Su Yang felt that Su Huang's decision this time was indeed quite prudent.
Upon arriving at their destination, even the vendors who usually set up stalls there dared not stay any longer. Perhaps it was a case of "three men make a tiger," but the departure of the Su family disciples also influenced some people nearby. In just half a day, there was not a single person left.
But that doesn't really matter; in fact, it's more convenient to act when there's no one around.
“The spiritual energy seems to be even more unstable.”
Upon reaching the cave entrance, Su Huang frowned. Even without any tremors, the spiritual energy emanating from the cave entrance itself appeared unusually unstable.
It seems the problem must be happening down here!
"Are you sure it's down here?" Su Yang suddenly asked.
"I'm sure!" Su Huang said with certainty.
"Okay, then you can go back now," Su Yang said casually.
ah?
Su Huang was taken aback. Calling him back now? What did that mean?
Su Huang paused for a moment, then said, "Let's go together. The terrain below is a bit complicated. I can lead the way."
Su Yang smiled and shook his head: "No need. I can already sense an aura right here at the cave entrance."
Hearing this, Su Huang was even more confused.
Is there an aura challenging Su Yang?
Isn't he unable to detect fluctuations in spiritual energy?
At this moment, Su Yang added, "That aura is challenging me."
provocative!
Su Huang immediately dared not say another word. Since it was a provocation, it meant that the being below wanted to compete with Su Yang! Such a being would only be cannon fodder even if he went down.
Thinking of this, Su Huang's face showed a bitter expression, and he had no choice but to clasp his hands and say, "Then please be careful, Ancestor."
Su Yang simply nodded without saying a word.
Seeing this, Su Huang took three steps back, then leaped backward and quickly left the place.
As for whether there really is a presence below challenging Su Yang?
You could say it exists, or you could say it doesn't.
But the aura that Su Yang could sense was indeed very clear. This was because the Purple Gold Pagoda in his mind was extremely active at this moment, as if it couldn't wait for Su Yang to go down and explore.
"What exactly is it that attracts the Purple Gold Pagoda so much?" Su Yang frowned.
Thinking of this, Su Yang fell directly down from the cave entrance.
The first thing you notice is that it's black!
Secondly, it stinks!
The stench from below had already permeated the dark room above. Su Yang frowned, waved his hand, and the safety shield spread outward from his body, gradually enveloping him and completely isolating the stench.
Further down was the ball cage that Su Huang had mentioned earlier. The damaged iron chains on the ground and the destroyed array seals were exactly as Su Huang had described.
"Looks like this is the place," Su Yang murmured.
Then, Su Yang closed his eyes.
His senses spread outwards from the soles of his feet, and he sensed every part of the underground chamber below, down to the smallest crack. However, Su Yang discovered that although the cage containing the strange beast was large, there was no trace of a second strange beast.
“That’s not right.” Su Yang frowned.
His eyes were still closed as he continued to expand the scope of his perception, letting it seep outwards from the cracks in the wall, until finally he discovered…
Beneath the rock strata beneath his feet, there was another space!
The space was vast, and there was a strange energy that subtly repelled the power he perceived in his mind!
Su Yang suddenly opened his eyes: "It actually rejects my mental perception!"
This was the first time his perception of his mental state had been rejected; even within the illusion, his mental state could be probed.
What exactly is hidden down there?
Rumble...
Suddenly, the underground chamber trembled, several times more violently than any other time! And after the tremor, a series of low roars came from beneath Su Yang's feet.
"There really is something down there." Su Yang narrowed his eyes.
Just as he was about to draw his sword, he suddenly noticed that the dark room was gradually changing.
Directly in front of him, a pair of bronze eyes slowly opened, each eye the size of an adult. When the pupils were wide open, a beam of golden light instantly pierced towards Su Yang!
However, the moment the golden light struck the safety shield in front of Su Yang, it instantly dissipated into a blur!
At the same time, Su Yang drew his sword sharply, and a sword cry suddenly resounded in the underground chamber. A beam of sword light pierced through the pair of large eyes in front of him in an instant. However, this sword seemed to have no effect. Instead, the pair of eyes gradually disappeared into the darkness.
Su Yang was stunned for a moment.
Although that sword strike was just a test, he could clearly sense that the eyes were neither an illusion nor a physical entity. They could attack and steal flesh and blood, but when attacked, they would vanish into nothingness.
Su Yang frowned: "Is this the golden eye the first witness mentioned?"
