Zhan Jie de Nan Hai

Chapter 1501 High Expectations

The faces of the many experts in the Sacred City shifted slightly upon witnessing this. They hadn't expected Bai Di and the others to act so directly, catching everyone off guard.

"What powerful means!"

The old man with the black snake laughed heartily, "You have crippled the young lord's cultivation. The Lord of the Sacred City will surely be enraged, and you will all suffer the wrath of the Sacred City!"

"If we were afraid, we wouldn't have made a move!"

Lord Xue Luo chuckled, "The Sacred City's people are so overbearing. This is the fate you deserve!"

The black snake's expression turned grim. He naturally understood that some matters were not as simple as they imagined.

The events had already transpired, filling them with surprise and doubt. They wondered what gave the various cities the confidence to act.

"Capture all of them!"

Bai Di stated coldly, "In a few days, the Four Great Cities will march on the Sacred City!"

Many people's expressions changed. They hadn't anticipated Bai Di speaking so openly.

The Sacred City was teeming with experts. Even if the Four Great Cities united, they might not be able to contend with it.

Bai Di's declaration clearly indicated a desire for an all-out war with the Sacred City, which left many bewildered.

At the same time, everyone could clearly sense that something extraordinary would happen in the near future, possibly even affecting the entire Desolate Ancient World.

Upon thinking of this, their expressions turned solemn, and they understood the gravity of the situation.

"Now that the experts of the Sacred City have been apprehended, what are you waiting for?"

Lord Xue Luo spoke with a significant tone.

Hearing this, everyone turned their gaze towards the Divine Tomb, but they dared not step in rashly.

"The Divine Tomb still contains divine aura. If we enter, we might face mortal peril!"

The elders spoke without any reservation.

Although they now had an opportunity to enter and were overjoyed, they wouldn't readily throw their lives away.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you wait for the experts of the Sacred City to arrive, you might not get another chance to enter the Divine Tomb!"

Lord Xue Luo smiled faintly, "As for how you choose, that is your own decision!"

Following these words, the elders' expressions shifted. Lord Xue Luo's statement was indeed thought-provoking.

After a long period of hesitation, a group of old cultivators stepped forward, cupped their fists towards the Four City Lords, and said, "Our lifespans are nearing their end. We wish to seek an opportunity, so let us be the ones to clear the path!"

After speaking, the elders stepped into the Divine Tomb, appearing fearless of death.

Their destinies were nearing their end. Without a fortuitous encounter, they would likely face certain death.

If they bravely entered the Divine Tomb, they might still have a sliver of hope.

Seeing this, Lord Xue Luo's lips curved into a smile. This was for the best.

With these individuals entering first, they would be able to ascertain the dangers within.

As time passed, no sound emerged from within the Divine Tomb, causing further suspicion. No one knew what had happened.

Concurrently, everyone could clearly sense the divine aura within the Divine Tomb was dissipating.

"It seems it's time to enter!"

Bai Di's lips curved upwards as he spoke with a significant tone.

"If Lord Bai Di cannot wait, you are welcome to enter!"

Lord Xue Luo smiled, "Although entering first carries some risk, if there are treasures in the tomb, you will be the first to obtain them. The Heavenly Dao is such that to gain any benefit, one must exhibit great courage!"

"Well said!"

Bai Di revealed a faint smile, exuding a powerful aura that surged outwards, carrying an invincible momentum.

Seeing Bai Di enter the tomb, the other cultivators could no longer restrain themselves. They knew that if they missed this opportunity, it would be a great loss.

In the blink of an eye, the City Lords, without any hesitation, stepped into the tomb, their momentum like a rainbow.

Zhao Xiaotian looked at Lu Fan and asked, "What do you think? Should we make a move?"

"We've come this far. Do we still have a retreat?"

Lu Fan said with a wry smile, "Let's take a look at what exactly is inside this Divine Tomb. Since so many people have already entered, it's time for us too!"

In response to his words, Zhao Xiaotian nodded slightly and stepped forward, walking into the Divine Tomb with a sharpened gaze.

Upon arriving at the Divine Tomb, Lu Fan's brow furrowed slightly. It was no wonder it was called the Divine Tomb; it was truly extraordinary. The aura emanating from within the tomb was terrifying.

"I truly never imagined we would have such a good opportunity!"

Ancestor Tian Huo exclaimed, "To encounter this mysterious tomb is truly our good fortune!"

"That may not be the case," Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, "Whether we can get out of the Divine Tomb is still a question."

As soon as Lu Fan finished speaking, everyone's expression tensed. What Lu Fan had said was not without reason.

Being able to truly emerge alive from the Divine Tomb was perhaps the most important thing. If they couldn't achieve that, it would be meaningless.

After all, no matter what they obtained, if they died, it would be of no use.

Inside the Divine Tomb, after walking for a long time, they discovered numerous caves, each leading in a different direction and emitting an unparalleled terrifying aura.

Some followed the figures ahead, pursuing them from behind, while others took a different path, hoping to find a better entrance. This way, they might have a chance to find the treasures of the Divine Tomb.

Lu Fan and his companions belonged to the latter. They found an unoccupied cave and went straight in. After all, the caves ahead were already occupied by others, and any treasures found would likely be claimed.

However, after searching for a long time, Lu Fan and his companions did not sense any special characteristics of the mysterious tomb, which made them curious.

Under normal circumstances, if this were truly a Divine Tomb, there should be many treasures, but as it stood, it was not as they had imagined.

"If I'm not mistaken, there should be something special within the Divine Tomb!"

Lu Fan said, "But it feels like we're walking through a maze now. Do you feel that way?"

"I feel it too," Zhao Xiaotian nodded, "Could it be that this isn't a Divine Tomb? But if it is, why is there divine aura?"

"If I'm not mistaken, there aren't any treasures within the tomb. It's merely a cave left behind from ancient times!" Lu Fan shook his head, "It seems we overestimated this cave!"

"If that's the case, haven't we come here for nothing!" Ancestor Tian Huo said with a wry smile.

"Let's go, let's get out of here quickly!"

Lu Fan shouted, and his figure moved directly towards the outside of the cave. There were no treasures here, and it was useless to remain.
