Chapter 605: Chapter 476: Cavern Abyss, Centipede Disaster
The east foothills of the giant mountain were a vast forest, with gently sloping terrain and a sea of evenly spread green tree crowns as far as the eye could see.
The final destination of Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou, Chen Lake, was located at the easternmost end of this perilous forest.
At this moment, at the foot of the giant mountain, stood the female sovereign, cold and lifeless, on a steep rock face, her eyes staring at the slope of the mountain under her feet.
Next to the female sovereign was the soul-damaged Pan Zheng, who could now only summon two soul pets, one of which was carrying the severely injured Shen Yicheng.
“Master, why have you stopped?” Pan Zheng asked.
“You wait here,” said the female sovereign.
Pan Zheng didn’t quite understand. Most of the other contestants had already reached the west end of the giant mountain, and it would take less than half a day to cross it. If they didn’t take advantage of their lead to reach the end of the Mysterious Realm, they might not be able to achieve the highest honor.
“Master, are you worried about Ling He? There is no one in the second-tier who could possibly contend with him, let alone that many killers still exist. How could the little princess of the Nightmare Demon Palace and Soul Hall Chu Chen possibly stand against him? If it weren’t for that fusion skill, it would have been easy for me to kill Soul Hall Chu Chen!” said Pan Zheng.
The female sovereign did not speak, only telling Pan Zheng to wait there, and then went back on her own.
Pan Zheng dared not defy the orders of his master and could only stand by and watch as the female sovereign retreated back into the giant mountain, walking towards the entrance of one of the caves.
