Chapter 1815 1815: Giant Stone Gate!
However, Xue Yiyi didn't have much interest in those people. She only responded out of politeness once or twice, spending most of her time talking with Su Chen!
This made a few of the young men feel some animosity towards Su Chen!
Of course, Su Chen felt it too, but he didn't care much!
He was now indeed quite interested in the so-called ancestral land, curious about what he might find inside!
Seeing his interest, Xue Yiyi shared a bit about the ancestral land's tales and legends during the journey, which were well-known in this world, but Su Chen, being an outsider, naturally hadn't heard them before.
After four or five days of traveling, they finally arrived in a forest.
"City Lord, it seems people from other cities have already arrived in significant numbers!"
One of the young men noticed the scattered footprints on the ground and spoke.
"Yes, let's hurry too!"
Feng Bing quickened his pace at once!
While walking, an unusually designed building appeared ahead. Feng Bing and his group didn't hesitate and walked straight in.
"The entrance to the outer layer of the ancestral land is inside this building."
Xue Yiyi whispered to Su Chen.
Su Chen nodded and followed behind Feng Bing and the others, entering inside.
Once inside, it felt like entering a maze; up, down, left, right, winding back and forth, they were long past the building and had no idea where they were!
However, Su Chen did notice quite a few formations and mechanisms, but they had all been dismantled, so following the others, he encountered no danger.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally emerged, and at that moment, Su Chen was utterly dumbfounded!
In the distance, there was a massive stone wall with a Giant Stone Gate embedded in it, the gate spanning several hundred meters in length and standing two to three hundred meters tall!
Such a large stone gate was indeed extremely rare!
And before this Giant Stone Gate, there was a wide platform with dozens of people on it, who seemed insignificant in front of the enormous gate!
"This Stone Gate is the first obstacle to entering the inner layer of the ancestral land, and it's controlled by a formation. Only by breaking the formation can one enter."
Xue Yiyi introduced this to Su Chen as she looked at the enormous gate.
"Is there any possibility of breaking it by force?"
Su Chen asked casually.
He knew that when one's power was strong enough, some formations could be forcibly broken!
"Impossible!"
Xue Yiyi shook her head and said:
"Several city lords and other masters once tried to break it by force together, but aside from leaving a few marks on it, the gate didn't budge an inch!"
Upon hearing this, Su Chen nodded. It seemed that to break through, they truly had to dismantle the formation!
Since Feng Bing, the City Lord of Fengcheng, had already reached the Divine Sea Realm, the other city lords probably weren't much weaker!
For so many experts to work together without any effect, this formation likely couldn't be broken by force by just anyone!
Moreover, carelessly damaging the original formation could even cause severe consequences!
As Su Chen chatted with Xue Yiyi, they headed towards the Stone Gate.
"Yiyi?!"
They hadn't gone far when a voice rang out.
Then, a middle-aged figure ran over, his face showing surprise and delight!
"Father!"
Xue Yiyi excitedly ran over.
"City Lord Xue."
At that moment, Feng Bing also came over to greet him.
"City Lord Feng."
Xue Wuheng, puzzled, looked at Feng Bing and asked:
"Why is Yiyi with you?"
Feng Bing recounted the story of Xue Yiyi being captured and subsequently rescued!
Xue Wuheng, hearing this as Xue Yiyi's father, was naturally filled with fear and anger!
"City Lord Xue, it's my fault for not guarding the Imperial Realm better, leading to such an incident. I'm truly sorry!"
"City Lord Feng, how can I blame you for this?"
Xue Wuheng quickly said, with a sudden fire in his eyes:
"But, alas, Lisan and his group are already dead; otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have let him off!"
"Father, I want to introduce a friend to you."
At this moment, Xue Yiyi pulled Su Chen over to Xue Wuheng and said, "Father, this is Su Chen, a friend I met on the road."
"Oh, hello."
Hearing Xue Yiyi, Xue Wuheng smiled; he wasn't exactly cold, but he wasn't particularly warm either!
The main reason was, of course, that Su Chen's cultivation was too low, as in the Martial Arts world, there's only one criterion for judgment, and that's strength!
"Young Master Su, we meet again!"
At this time, a somewhat alluring voice rang out, with an even more alluring figure!
"Miss Shi, long time no see!"
Su Chen was also a bit surprised to see Shi Ruoxuan here!
"You two know each other?"
Xue Wuheng was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
"Yes, we're both from the outside world."
Shi Ruoxuan smiled slightly.
Meanwhile, the young men with Feng Bing were secretly grumbling in their hearts:
Even though both are from the outside world, how can the strength gap be so big?
One is nearly at the Nine Turns of the Tongxuan Realm, unattainable for them, while the other is at the Second Turn of the Cave Void Realm; anyone in Fengcheng's street would be stronger!
Then, the group continued upwards, with Xue Yiyi naturally accompanying her father, while Su Chen fell back to chat with Shi Ruoxuan.
"How come you're here?"
Su Chen asked curiously.
"It's not just me; many people are here!"
Shi Ruoxuan smiled.
"Oh!"
Hearing this, Su Chen's eyes brightened!
Previously, he mainly focused on the Giant Stone Gate and hadn't really noticed the crowd!
Sure enough, shortly afterward, as he reached the vast area before the Giant Stone Gate, he recognized quite a few familiar faces, almost ten people in total!
The Zhenyu Dynasty had three people: Zheng Hao, Pan Xuan, and the man in ordinary blue clothes who had previously stopped Zheng Hao!
The Xianluo Dynasty had two: Shi Ruoxuan and a young man with the surname Wei.
And from the Shenfeng Dynasty, besides Su Chen, there were Leng Ning and Wang Sheng!
The Bo Yun Dynasty had two people here, and the other dynasties also had one or two people present!
Although everyone wasn't well-acquainted, having come from the outside world together, there was naturally a sense of camaraderie in this unfamiliar world!
Except for Zheng Hao and Pan Xuan from the Zhenyu Dynasty, who showed obvious hostility to Su Chen, others were still quite happy to see him!
Moreover, Su Chen had already proven his strength by easily defeating Pan Xuan outside!
Of course, Wang Sheng appeared calm, but Su Chen could still sense he wasn't truly at peace!
If there was anyone who seemed truly serene, it was the ordinary man in blue from the Zhenyu Dynasty!
