Traveling to ancient times, with space

Chapter 188 Blocking the Road

The boy clung tightly to Su Yue's clothes, and the two mingled together in the panicked crowd.

However, amidst the overwhelming crowd and the cacophony of voices, Su Yue cleverly used the pushing and shoving of the crowd.

She pretended to be forcibly pushed aside, and just in time broke free from the boy's hand that was tightly gripping her robe.

At the same time, Su Yue's mental energy had already been firmly locked onto Dali.

While everyone else rushed towards the exit, Su Yue went against the flow and charged into the arena without hesitation.

Amidst the chaos, Dali cleverly slipped away and hid in a secluded corner of the stands, quietly waiting for Su Yue to come looking for her.

After a difficult and crowded procession, Su Yue finally managed to find Dali's hiding place.

She lowered her voice and called softly, "Dali."

Hearing that familiar call, Dali suddenly raised his head.

Their gazes instantly focused on the person in front of them, who was dressed in a black robe and wearing a mask.

With just one glance, Dali immediately recognized that the person was Su Yue.

Without the slightest hesitation, Su Yue quickly reached out and grabbed Dali, whispering, "Let's go!"

Then, she led Dali away quickly.

Long before, Su Yue had already used her mental power to detect a relatively safe escape route.

So the two began to flee.

Along the way, they dodged left and right, and even took down one or two aggressive law enforcement teams.

However, at this very moment, the Black Illusion City outside was already in a state of extreme chaos.

On the streets, law enforcement officers patrolled back and forth, their expressions stern as they vigilantly watched their surroundings.

The two found a corner, and Su Yue took out the spiritual spring water from her spatial storage, along with a clean black robe and the stolen mask, and gave them to Dali.

After Dali hurriedly packed his things, the two looked at each other and decided to leave this troublesome place immediately.

After all, the place was already in chaos, and the situation was becoming increasingly difficult to control.

Su Yue knew that if they delayed any longer, Dali would most likely be discovered by those searching everywhere.

If we fall into their hands again, the consequences will be unimaginable, and escaping will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Just then, a large crowd appeared inside the Black Illusion City. Many people were panicked by the sudden change in the arena and were shouting to escape the underground city.

Among the bustling crowd were naturally the two people who were determined to leave the city.

The two of them cleverly blended into the crowd, trying their best to appear inconspicuous.

As they got closer to the exit, they were suddenly blocked by a group of law enforcement officers who came towards them.

A noisy argument broke out ahead; someone was protesting the law enforcement team's demands: "Why should we take off our masks?"

Faced with such questioning, the law enforcement officers snorted coldly and responded firmly: "Stop talking nonsense! Take off your masks and undergo inspection. Once we confirm there are no problems, we will let you go."

Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite; please return the way you came! There was absolutely no room for negotiation in his words.

Su Yue clearly realized that her plan to sneak out with this group had failed.

Without hesitation, she gripped Dali's hand tightly, and the two quietly slipped away along one side of the path.

They walked along a dimly lit, winding path.

Su Yue focused intently, pushing her mental energy to its limit.

She could sense even the slightest movement ahead, whether it was just a faint sound or a shadowy figure.

Once she senses someone ahead, she will act decisively and eliminate them with lightning speed to ensure that she and Dali can pass smoothly.

Using her mental perception, Su Yue finally found another exit from the underground city.

However, she couldn't be sure if the other exit was safe.

But there's no other way now, so we have to grit our teeth and keep going.

As the two ran breathlessly toward that place, the already somewhat dim path turned completely dark.

It was unclear whether Zhao Ming's torch had already gone out, or whether there was simply no lighting available here.

To make matters worse, this is a location that Su Yue couldn't detect from above.

Without the aid of spiritual energy to pave the way, the two of them could not have found this place so easily by blindly groping in the dark.

As they drew closer, they were surprised to find that a huge and heavy stone gate stood there.

Looking up, a plaque hung high above the door, bearing the three large characters "Corpse Refining Hall" that the boy had mentioned.

I don't know if it's bad luck or bad luck!

This underground castle is so vast that it resembles an intricate labyrinth, making it easy to lose one's way within it.

However, it seems quite by coincidence that they ended up in this place.

The name "Corpse Refining Hall" is terrifying; it's definitely not a good place.

This place is not safe to stay in. We must find an exit and escape as soon as possible.

Instead of barging in recklessly, they found a corner where they wouldn't be easily spotted and hid.

Hidden in the shadows, Su Yue took a deep breath, concentrated her energy, and slowly released her spiritual power, probing towards the mysterious stone door.

The moment her mental energy touched the stone door, the scene inside was clearly displayed in her mind: a spacious, desolate room, empty of everything.

Strangely, there were more than a dozen small and exquisite stone doors distributed on the walls around the room.

Each stone door was engraved with strange symbols, which Su Yue could not understand.

However, this did not stop her from continuing to use her mental power to explore further.

She controlled her mental energy to explore each stone door, starting from the first one on the left.

Beyond the stone gate was a long, narrow tunnel, about thirty meters long, that stretched straight to a stone cave at the end.

Inside that dark stone cave, there was a pool of astonishing size.

The pool was filled to the brim with a dark, viscous liquid that was nauseating to look at.

Upon closer inspection, countless corpses were found floating densely on the water's surface!

These bodies were either whole or incomplete, and some had even begun to decompose.

Upon seeing this, Su Yue trembled, a chill instantly rising from her spine.

Her eyes widened, her mind filled with confusion. What exactly was this place?

What are these people doing putting so many corpses in this pool?

What is their purpose in doing this?

Is it simply used to soak corpses? But what purpose could such a method serve...?

A series of questions swirled in her mind, but she couldn't find any answers.
