Chapter 83: The Road to the Unknown



As if possessing self-awareness, the black mist slowly and gradually squeezed into these cracks. Like invisible fingers, they gently touched the wall, exploring the secrets within.

As the black mist continued to seep in, a low cracking sound emanated from the wall. Then, the entire stone where the human face was located suddenly lifted up, revealing a deep black hole.

At the same moment, Blore felt the suction disappear, and he quickly grabbed the tilted stone with his backhand. Perhaps because of the buoyancy of the water, despite the stone's massive size, he didn't feel any heavy pressure.

There is a mysterious atmosphere in the black hole that makes people feel scared.

In this eerie scene, the faces on the cliff seem more lifelike, as if telling a story. And the pried-off stone is like a veil being lifted, revealing the truth behind it.

Lu'e had just swum over and grasped his hand when, in an instant, the ground shook, and a resounding roar echoed through the sky. The cliffs in the water seemed to be violently shaken by an invisible giant hand, trembling violently. The once solid mountain wall began to crumble, and debris tumbled like raindrops, crashing into the abyss without causing a splash. Everything was happening underwater, a strange and wonderful thing.

Amidst the chaos, a massive stone Buddha statue slowly emerged. Standing dozens of feet tall, it stood majestically, like a giant awakening from a deep slumber. Its face was kind and solemn, its eyes slightly closed, as if silently observing the world.

As the Buddha statue gradually emerged, the surrounding atmosphere grew solemn and dignified. Ma Tuan and Xian Ke Lai, who were playing a game of hitting and kicking each other, were initially startled by the noise, but upon seeing the scene before them, they involuntarily stopped what they were doing and stared blankly at the mysterious Buddha statue.

Light from nowhere shone on the suddenly appearing Buddha statue, making it even more dazzling. The details of the Buddha statue were clearly visible, and every line was smooth and natural, as if it was carved by nature.

The statue evoked an indescribable sense of majesty, inspiring awe. In this world of unknowns, this sight undoubtedly left Ma Tuan and Xian Ke Lai feeling profoundly astonished. Their eyes widened, eager to see what secrets this enigmatic statue held.

Its existence gives people a sense of tranquility and peace of mind, as if telling the four people that no matter how turbulent the world is, there is a mysterious force protecting them.

Ma Tuan signaled to Xiankelai with his eyes what was going on, but Xiankelai of course didn't know either. The two of them looked at each other and swam over to find Blore.

At this moment, Blore was holding the big stone and hiding in the dug hole with Lu'e. The black fog was still lingering around them, and it was considerately helping Blore hold the stone.

Because Ma Tuan and the other two were already up there, they were just startled by the loud noise. The rolling rubble did not hurt them at all. Now that the surroundings had become safe, they could easily see the Luohua tea tree.

"Found it," Xianmenlai said in his heart, and then pulled his mother into the black hole.

Ma Tuan took a look and felt that the hole was formed very irregularly, as if it had been forcibly opened. But how could the inside of the Good Man Mountain be empty? Just a shell on the outside? This was outrageous. I had encountered something strange.

Blore saw the two men and waved his hands quickly, and raised the stone in his hand for them to see.

The two people didn't know until they saw it, and they were shocked.

There was a human face on the stone, with a white patch on top of the pitch-black surface. Cyclamen recognized at a glance that this familiar violent dismantling method was definitely done by Green Calyx.

I wonder if it’s heavy for Blore to move that thing?

There is a small platform next to the cave, which seems to be a resting place specially left by nature for explorers. Cyclamen doesn't know how Green Elysium dug a hole so accurately that it only has a small area, and can only praise the wonders of nature.

However, what is amazing is that the mountain behind the platform is completely hollowed out, presenting a mysterious and spectacular scene.

An incredibly luxurious spiral black staircase winds its way from top to bottom, like a giant dragon coiled within the mountain's belly. Each step is meticulously carved, exuding an air of luxury. The black material evokes a sense of mystery and solemnity, as if it leads to an unknown world.

Slowly descending the stairs, it felt like entering a mysterious maze. The light gradually dimmed, with only the faint lights on the stairs guiding the way forward. Strange lights flickered on the surrounding stone walls, as if hidden treasures within the depths were radiating an alluring charm.

I wonder what secrets are hidden in this land of light, is it an ancient treasure or a mysterious relic?

The four of them were speechless and could only look at each other in silence.

Blore pointed to the magnificent staircase, and his meaning was obvious. Anyway, the result would be the same whether to go down or take the stairs, and the others had no other opinions.

From this place, you can clearly see the head of the Buddha statue on the opposite cliff. It is very similar to the one you saw on the cliff before, except that the sun was shining and the fog was lingering. Even though the Buddha statue was engraved with mycelium all over, it inexplicably appeared a bit divine.

Now, even if the statues are carved with kind faces, the atmosphere will be greatly reduced in such a gloomy environment.

After taking a last look at the statue opposite, Ma Tuan stepped onto the stairs and caught up with the three people in front.

Ma Tuan always felt that there was more to this place than just this staircase. He felt that there should be an underground palace and other places. But now they came in because of the destruction of the wall. Could this be Baiming City?
