Chapter 96: We Lost Contact With...Chen Feng!

“Crap!”

Sakurai Longzi let out a cry of surprise within the forest full of black, thorny trees.

“What’s wrong?” Park Yunmo immediately turned around and asked anxiously.

Blake, who was standing by the side, also looked over with a serious expression on his face.

Just a few hours ago, Chen Feng had fallen off a cliff in front of them.

The three of them had waited at the edge of the cliff for two hours, but there was still no sign of Chen Feng.

A deep horn rang out from within the dark abyss.

The black, toxic gas that caused one’s heart to palpitate suddenly grew even stronger along with the sound of the horn. The gas directly surged out from the abyss. Even the surrounding forest was affected by it.

The trees were reduced to ashes due to the corrosive effect of the toxic gas. Pu Yunmo and the other two could not stay here any longer. They were forced to return to the center of the forest.

Although they were very worried about Chen Feng’s whereabouts, the situation that they were currently in clearly meant that they could no longer continue searching for him

Furthermore, the dark abyss was way too large. No one knew where Chen Feng would escape from.

There was a high chance that Chen Feng would not return even if they waited on the spot.

To them, there was only a single piece of good news.

The [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] had designed an investigative beacon for each member. This scout beacon had a very basic effect. It could detect their opponent’s vital signs.

It could be used to tell if their opponents were dead, alive, healthy, or seriously injured.

Although the beacon had no other functions, it could display a certain teammate’s vital signs no matter where he or she was.

The beacon would still be able to tell if a person was dead or alive even if one of them was at the South Pole and the other teammate was in the North Pole.

To Sakurai Longzi, the best news was that the fact that Chen Feng’s investigative beacon had indicated that he was alive in these few hours.

This made them feel more at ease. After all, Chen Feng was not dead yet. A miracle could happen if he was not dead.

But now…

“Crap!”

Sakurai exclaimed in shock.

Chen Feng’s detection beacon had always indicated that he was still alive. However, just now…it had suddenly lost connection with him!

“Is Chen Feng dead?” Park Yunmo asked in disbelief.

“He’s not dead, but it doesn’t mean that he’s not dead…” Sakurai Longzi said in a difficult tone.

She had never seen such a situation before, so it was hard to describe what exactly had happened.

Chen Feng’s investigative beacon seemed to have suddenly vanished from the world. It no longer showed his current status.

“Isn’t that impossible?” Park Yunmo frowned when he heard what she said.

“The investigative beacon of the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] was created through special means. Theoretically speaking, it can be connected to the person that it is tracking wherever they go, be it the moon or Mars…”

“In that case, there can only be two possibilities.”

Sakurai Longzi pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Which two possibilities?” Park Yunmo was stunned.

“The first possibility is that Chen Feng is way too far away from us right now. The distance between him and us has even exceeded the limits of the detection beacon. That would happen if he’s on the moon and Mars as I just mentioned. After all, we have never tried doing that before. It is only theoretically possible for the beacon to remain connected under such circumstances.”

“The second possibility…”

Sakurai Longzi looked up. Her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise as she looked towards the dark abyss.

“Chen Feng might have entered another dimension, so the investigative beacon failed!”

….

At the same time.

Chen Feng slowly opened his eyes.

He was in an extremely narrow and dark place right now. The air was filled with a damp and moldy smell.

Chen Feng felt like his body had been swallowed by a black hole when he first entered this place. Even the time around him slowed down.

“What…is this place?”

“Could it be related to the system’s reward?”

Chen Feng was momentarily puzzled. He was still holding onto the simple token with the words “Clouds of Heaven” carved on it in his hand.

However, the token mysteriously disappeared after he arrived here.

“It looks like this is the special space created by that god.”

Chen Feng mumbled as he walked along the narrow passageway.

There was no light here, and his surroundings were submerged in absolute darkness.

However, two flashes of lightning appeared in Chen Feng’s eyes,. The lightning through the darkness and allowed him to see everything.

With the aid of the lightning, Chen Feng’s gaze was as sharp as a hawk even in the absolute darkness.

He saw everything in the narrow corridor.

Meanwhile, Chen Feng’s pupils constricted. A distance away, ghastly white bones were scattered messily on the ground of the corridor.

There were corpses everywhere!

Some of the corpses had already been reduced to ashes. There were some scattered weapons and armor among them.

Chen Feng walked over and picked up the weapons and armor.

Bang!

A thin sword that was over a meter long shattered into pieces in Chen Feng’s hand.

“It’s been way too long.”

Nobody knew how long these things had been placed here. The bones had turned to ashes, and even the blade had lost its intelligence. It had turned into scrap metal.

“They’re all trash,” Chen Feng sighed.

There might be some precious treasures within it, but divine effects within it had already lost their effect due to the passage of time.

Finally, Chen Feng only saw a few useful items after walking around. He kept them all in his backpack.

Among them, the highest quality item that he found was a Purple Quality armor. However, many of its divine forces had dissipated due to wear and tear over time. At most, ts powers were equivalent to that of a Blue Quality item.

“Why are there so many corpses here?”

Chen Feng frowned.

“Could it be…Can I no longer leave after entering this place?”

Chen Feng could not see find a way out in the dark corridor. He could only walk forward.

Boom!

After taking a few steps, the whole corridor suddenly shook. The rumbling sound echoed through the narrow corridor.

A black object fell from the sky and landed on the ground heavily.

It was not shaped like a human, but it looked like a human.

He could tell that the man had four limbs and a head, but his figure was slightly large. It had black fur on its body, and it was around four to five meters tall.

Chen Feng immediately took out the [Sea Calming Scepter]. The figure exuded a sense of intense pressure.

The figure’s green eyes looked at Chen Feng as it slowly walked toward him.

It looked like it was taking slow steps, but each of its steps actually spanned the distance of around ten meters.

Swoosh!

It instantly appeared in front of Chen Feng.

“Defeat me… before…”

The shadow mumbled something.

However, the meaning of its words was clear.

Chen Feng would only be able to move forward by defeating it. If he could not defeat it, he would forever be trapped here. He would never be able to leave this place.

In the end…he would end up having the same fate as the corpses that littered the ground!

Chen Feng rubbed his palm lightly against the [Water Repelling Pearl] on the tip of the [Sea Calming Scepter]. An azure light filled the surface of his body. His eyes were filled with determination.

“I will definitely defeat you.”

“That’s because…I can’t die here.”
