The road is right under your feet

Chapter 157 The Strange Gate

"Hey, brother, open your eyes. If you don't, you'll turn into a pig head."

"..."

Everyone was extremely worried about Zhuo Pingjian, but he remained calm and composed with his eyes closed.

It’s true...the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is.

After a while, they finally came to their senses, because they found that Shirahoshi had not moved either, and like Zhuo Pingjian, he closed his eyes and began to practice.

What followed was a familiar series of operations, including soundproofing arrays and spirit gathering arrays.

"I know, they are in the same group, we have all been deceived."

When this statement came out, everyone was lost.

When the people in the audience saw that their plan was interrupted, they exchanged glances and immediately became angry.

Under the shouting of a few people, the crowd started to curse wildly, saying all kinds of things.

However, no matter how they cursed, Shirahoshi and the other man remained indifferent.

Wendell shook his head. "Looks like this farce should come to an end." Then he walked out.

Ning Chengfeng also left.

...

Bai Xing fell into a mysterious state again, and that voice exploded in Bai Xing's mind again.

This time it did not cause a strong impact on Shirahoshi, but instead allowed Shirahoshi to grasp that glimmer of inspiration.

Gradually, he touched the threshold, and a magnificent and ancient door appeared in his sea of consciousness.

Bai Xing stood in front of the door, his heart shaking.

There was a voice in his heart that kept clamoring to push open the door. Bai Xing suppressed his turbulent thoughts and placed a hand on the door hesitantly.

Finally, Bai Xing made up his mind and pressed his weak hands forward suddenly.

"Om-"

A stream of air vibrated like ripples.

Shirahoshi's robe rustled and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

The door...opened.

What is behind this door? Why did it appear in his sea of consciousness? How is all this related to that voice? Or what secrets are hidden in this Tianjiao Arena?

The doubts in his heart prompted Bai Xing to step into this door.

The moment Bai Xing stepped over the threshold, the scene around him changed.

The sky was yellow and the ground was black, with sand blowing all over the place and it was a desolate place.

“It’s another doomsday scene.”

Bai Xing took a deep breath and walked slowly forward on the barren land.

Suddenly, the scene before my eyes changed again.

The stars are turning and things are changing with each passing day.

Everything is speeding up a hundred times or a thousand times.

It was almost as if all Bai Xing's eyes were covered with blurred lines. He couldn't see anything clearly, and his head felt dizzy after looking at it for a long time.

After Bai Xing felt dizzy for a while, he closed his eyes.

Suddenly there was a loud noise, which made Bai Xing open his eyes again.

Shirahoshi's eyes widened as soon as they opened.

There were many spiritual weapons lying in front of him, but no one was in sight.

Bai Xing hesitated for a moment, but still walked forward. He felt that there seemed to be something in front of him that was attracting him.

I don’t know how long I walked, but there seemed to be a faint light rising into the sky ahead.

Bai Xing's heartbeat inexplicably quickened, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

As Bai Xing got closer, a corner of the thing finally appeared. He couldn't help but slow down his pace, and the throbbing in his heart became more intense.

Soon, Shirahoshi finally saw the whole picture.

"It's actually... the Tianjiao Monument?"

Bai Xing was suddenly a little disappointed. The Tianjiao Monument in front of him was towering into the clouds, stretching across the sky, and was obviously different from the Tianjiao Monument on the Tianjiao Arena.

But that cannot change the fact that this is the Tianjiao Monument. He should have guessed it long ago. The unusual movements on the Tianjiao Arena must be related to the Tianjiao Monument. He actually thought there was some treasure there.

Bai Xing snorted and was about to leave.

The moment Bai Xing turned around, the wounds on the ground disappeared in an instant and turned into nothingness.

Bai Xing looked calm, his steps steadily on the empty ground.

The monument to the genius behind him kept humming, as if expressing dissatisfaction, but also as if trying to keep him.

As if it had not expected Bai Xing to be so determined, it began to tremble even more, as if it was about to rise from the ground.

Bai Xing was unaware of this.

---

In the stands, the people who originally felt bored and wanted to leave suddenly looked up in horror.

Someone exclaimed in shock, "Tian...Tianjiao Monument?!"

"Oh my god! What happened? The Tianjiao Monument is actually...actually moving?"

"Hurry... hurry and inform the elder."

"..."

The people below the stage were in a state of confusion, while the people on the stage remained unmoved.

The vibration of the Tianjiao Monument also affected the people competing on the other stages. They exchanged glances and temporarily reached a consensus of a draw.

Suddenly, everyone's expression changed.

They all flew away from the ground on their swords.

---

Shirahoshi wandered in the void, so quiet that the only sounds he could hear were his own breathing and footsteps.

Suddenly, the ground under his feet shook and cracked like a mirror. Bai Xing gradually lost his balance and without hesitation, he ran forward.

"Damn, what the hell is this place?"

Suddenly, Bai Xing stepped on empty air and his whole body fell straight down.

Bai Xing suddenly opened his eyes and breathed deeply, but found that the earth was still shaking. When he looked again, he found that he had left that hellish place and returned to reality.

"Oh shit, there's an earthquake?!"

Bai Xing didn't have time to be shocked, he quickly ran to Zhuo Pingjian and patted his cheek, "Wake up, Zhuo Pingjian, wake up quickly."

Zhuo Pingjian woke up after being slapped by Bai Xing. Just as he was about to say something sweet, he saw his own young master and was so angry that he dared not say a word.

The next second he realized something was wrong and his face suddenly changed.

Before he could react, his collar was grabbed by Bai Xing. After a dizzying spin, he was already standing on the flying sword.

He looked down at the completely collapsed arena below, feeling extremely frightened, and clutched the corner of Bai Xing's clothes tightly in his hand.

Bai Xing sensed Zhuo Pingjian's uneasiness and glanced back at him, "Okay, it's okay now."

"Yeah." Zhuo Pingjian nodded subconsciously.

After leaving the danger zone, Shirahoshi stopped and looked down.

The area below had completely collapsed, the ground had collapsed, and many buildings had fallen into the cracks, but the Tianjiao Monument had disappeared.

"Could it have fallen down as well?" Bai Xing suddenly wondered, "That's impossible, right? The Tianjiao Monument is so huge, there may not be enough space for it in this place."

Thinking of the huge size of the Tianjiao Monument, I suddenly thought of the Tianjiao Monument in that door, towering into the clouds, while the Tianjiao Monument here was like a smaller Q version, there was no comparison at all.

Just as Bai Xing was thinking, a blurry shadow shot towards him.

Bai Xing dodged backwards reflexively.

The phantom seemed to have a positioning tracker installed on Bai Xing. It turned around very quickly and flew towards Bai Xing again.

In just a moment, Bai Xing was able to see its entire appearance. He was a little surprised and a little uncertain, "Tian... Jiao Monument?"

The shadow quickly enlarged, and at such a close distance, Bai Xing had no time to dodge and was hit directly.
