Chapter 31: A Plan within a Plan
This suction force was like a hand, pulling everyone towards the eye of the storm, including even the robust Dragon Three. They couldn't escape the attraction and were slowly being pulled towards the eye. Zong Kuo remembered shouting loudly, but he was getting closer and closer to the eye. The situation was most dire for the four people walking in front, Jin Tian Xing and his companions, who were only half a meter away from the eye of the storm. Their faces and bodies had already been cut by the strong winds, leaving bloody gashes, with fresh blood flowing out. The four of them used all their might to resist the suction force, and Huang Zhen even hugged a stone pillar tightly, using his mouth as well, biting onto it and refusing to let go.
Lan Xinlin was after all a woman, with limited physical strength. Her legs went soft and she was sucked in by the Wind Eye. Frightened, she closed her eyes and waited for death to arrive.
After five or six seconds, she opened her eyes and was still alive. It turned out that Jin Tian Xing had grabbed onto her from behind. His situation wasn't good either, as the two of them were being sucked into the whirlwind together.
"Lan Xinglin shed tears and said, 'Tian Xing, let go, or you'll die too.' Jin Tianxing shook his head, the veins on his hand bulging, but he refused to let go."
Old Mo suddenly shouted, "Over there, quick look over there!" Lan Xinlin looked in the direction Old Mo had pointed, and on the wall next to the wind eye, she saw a square-shaped mark, roughly the same size as the Tianyan Token. Old Mo shouted, "Put the Tianyan Token in it and try it out!" Since they were already at a dead end, they might as well give it a shot. Lan Xinlin struggled to take out the Tianyan Token and asked, "Which side should face inward?" Huang Zhen, who had been sucked down from the stone pillar by the suction force, was now heading towards the wind eye, "It doesn't matter, just stuff it in!" Lan Xinlin closed her eyes, inserted the Tianyan Token. After a series of clicking sounds came from within the wall, the suction force disappeared, and the wind stopped. Everyone fell to the ground, panting heavily.
"Long San, go get that token over here." The conversation just now was fully heard by Zong Kuo, and he only found out about this important token now.
Long San struggled to get up from the ground, walked to the wall, carefully took out the token, and the wind eye did not restart.
Zong Kuo held the token in his hand and rested on the spot for half an hour before continuing to explore forward with his group.
The road behind did not show any danger, and the Tianyan token seemed to have closed all the mechanisms.
After turning a corner, Huang Zhen stopped in his tracks, shocked by the scene before him. "This...this...this..." Jin Tianxing couldn't believe his eyes, as an enormous city had appeared underground, it was too unbelievable.
"What did you see?" Lin Tianxue ran over and took a look, also stunned. Rubbing her eyes, it wasn't an illusion.
Zong Kuo and others also ran over, looking at the huge city, not knowing what to say.
Old Master Mo's eyes were slightly moist, the dream of three generations was finally realized by him.
"This is a city recorded in the epigraph, and it has been preserved intact until now." Huang Zhen finally spoke out.
"Hahaha......" Zong Kuo looked up at the sky and laughed loudly, "All of this is mine, mine!" "You're daydreaming!" A cold voice came from the darkness in front.
"Who's there? Come out." With a loud shout from Zong Kuo, five or six handguns pointed forward.
A woman slowly emerged from the darkness, her white clothes shining like snow, as if she were a fairy from the ninth heaven descended to earth, but on her forehead was painted a strange eyebrow, giving people an inexplicable sense of eeriness.
Jin Tian Xing saw the woman and was struck by lightning, "Is it you... really is you..." The white-clothed woman only looked at Jin Tian Xing for a moment before shifting her gaze to Zong Kuo.
Zong Kuo smiled and said, "So it's you. I thought you were someone else. Should I call you Roy or the Three-Eyed Goddess?" Roy replied coldly, "I was wondering how you could get here. It seems that the piece of Tianyan token that went missing years ago has fallen into your hands." "You seem to be dissatisfied with my being alive. Have you forgotten our partnership? We are allies." Roy burst out laughing and said, "Zong Kuo, you killed my fellow Taoist and plotted against Guizang. Did you think I was really helping you for the money? Now it's no harm to tell you that everything was fake, all just to get rid of you. Your influence in the outside world is too great, so we could only lure you here and eliminate you." "Eliminate me?" A fierce glint flashed in Zong Kuo's eyes. "Many people have tried to eliminate me. Can you do it?" "I couldn't do it on the outside, but I can do it here. Don't believe me? Try shooting." Zong Kuo signaled Long San to fire his gun. Long San pulled the trigger at Roy, but there was only a click - none of their guns worked.
Roy waved his hand, and the Heaven's Eye token suddenly became very hot. Zong Kuo couldn't hold it and dropped it to the ground. Lan Xinlin quickly grabbed it with her green net, and as soon as the token was in her hands, it stopped burning. Long San tried to snatch it, but Roy waved his hand again, sending Long San flying out and heavily crashing to the ground.
Huang Zhen muttered to himself, "It seems like magnetism, yet it doesn't seem like it. What's going on?" Ah... Jin Tian Xing suddenly let out a loud shout, "Luo Yi, why did you deceive me!" Luo Yi turned around, her eyes revealing a hint of tenderness, and softly said, "Tian Xing, I love you, but I am not allowed to have love." As Luo Yi's attention wavered, Lin Tian Xue seized the opportunity to throw out a flying dagger, which struck Luo Yi right in the chest. Fresh blood immediately gushed out, staining her white clothes red.
"Roi...!" Jin Tianxing hugged Roi tightly and glared at Zong Kuo and the others in anger.
