Chapter 1398: Maze

On this day, as Lin Feng was leading the group on their journey, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, causing everyone behind him to be taken aback, not understanding why Lin Feng halted. Could it be that he encountered a super Demon Beast? Just as everyone was puzzled, Lin Feng spoke.

"I found the exit."

Turning to look at the crowd, Lin Feng smiled and said he was truly delighted to have finally found the exit to this forest. Over twenty miles away lay the edge of this forest, and there was an unusual building there, which was undoubtedly the exit of this forest.

Upon hearing Lin Feng say this, everyone was overjoyed. Finally, they could leave the forest. They were genuinely happy, with smiles appearing on each face, fixing their gaze on Lin Feng, waiting for him to lead them out.

At this moment, Lin Feng said nothing more, suddenly accelerating, leading the group towards the peculiar building.

However, twenty miles was nothing in front of many experts. In the blink of an eye, Lin Feng and the others arrived beside this building. Stopping, they began to scrutinize this extraordinary building.

What made it remarkable was that it appeared like a Pyramid on the surface, towering over a hundred meters high, standing like a mountain in front of everyone. It seemed to cover at least several thousand or even tens of thousands of acres, appearing incredibly majestic, causing a powerful sense of oppression standing before it!

At the forefront of the building, there was a pitch-black entrance, with no other entrances in sight. What made everyone curious was that the stones composing the building were black, shining with a strange black light, appearing exceptionally eerie. No one had seen such stones before, unsure of what these black-glowing stones actually were.

"Brother-in-law, is this the entrance?" Without others speaking, Leng Hao first asked Lin Feng. He found it hard to imagine this place was the exit. It felt like a man-eating beast, and he couldn’t connect such a place with an exit.

"Lin Feng, isn’t there somewhere else? This place doesn’t seem simple!" The Old Monster couldn’t help but speak at this time, also feeling something ominous. The building looked too eerie to be a believable exit.

The rest of the group also nodded, agreeing with the two’s feelings. The place gave them a strong sense of oppression and was undoubtedly very dangerous inside. They wanted to find out if this was really the exit.

"The boundary is already ahead. There’s no other way apart from here."

Lin Feng knew the group’s concerns. He also understood there was definitely danger here, but this was the only exit. Even if it was dangerous, they had to pass through here. After witnessing Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal’s methods before, he didn’t believe there was any other place besides this exit.

Upon hearing Lin Feng say this, the group had nothing to add. If there was another exit, Lin Feng wouldn’t have stated otherwise. Seeing no alternative, they could only grit their teeth and enter. No one knew what the situation inside was like, so they could only proceed with caution.

Seeing everyone silent, Lin Feng led the way, guiding everyone into the pitch-black tunnel. Once inside, the entrance silently closed, and nothing of the outside scene was visible anymore. This made everyone’s hearts sink. Although anticipating a no-return forward path, realizing the way back was thoroughly blocked, they could only proceed further.

As darkness unfolded, lights appeared at intervals in the corridor, granting an extremely eerie atmosphere. Though some road was visible, it couldn’t be seen far. Such a feeling was unsettling, but moving forward was their only choice now.

Without going far with gritted teeth, Lin Feng and the others reached an intersection. Everyone was confused, uncertain of which direction to go next, and turned their gaze toward Lin Feng. Lin Feng was also surprised by this situation, and in lack of alternatives, he tried using his Divine Sense to understand the area.

Unexpectedly, the stones here were unique, capable of blocking his Divine Sense, making it impossible to determine which path was correct. Such a situation made Lin Feng frown.

"Lin Feng, what’s wrong?" Xia Lalan was the first to notice Lin Feng frowning and asked, somewhat concerned. She wanted to know what had happened and why Lin Feng was frowning.

"This place is strange; my Divine Sense can’t extend," Lin Feng said frankly, revealing the actual situation.

"Then... what shall we do?"

"Can we... can we still get out?"

"Could this be a dead end?"

...

Hearing Lin Feng say this, everyone immediately panicked. Looking at Lin Feng, they didn’t know what to say. Without Divine Sense to detect the danger beforehand, how were they supposed to pass this challenge? Aside from the pitch-black stones, there was nothing here; they truly couldn’t figure out what this trial was.

"It’s okay, since we’re here, let’s make the best of it. There must be a way out, this is merely a test set by Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal." Seeing everyone panic, Lin Feng spoke to comfort them. This place is the Heavenly Immortal Mansion Ruins, meant to find an inheritor, so it couldn’t be all dead ends. There must be a way out, there is no need for them to worry about this.

Originally, everyone was quite anxious, but after hearing Lin Feng’s words, they felt a lot more at ease. They remembered that this was the Heavenly Immortal Mansion Ruins, so it couldn’t be designed just to take lives, which meant there must be a way out. Thinking of this, they were not as panicked anymore.

Seeing everyone calm down, Lin Feng proactively led them along a random path, starting to walk down it. Soon, another junction appeared; he picked a direction and continued forward, and not long after, they came across another junction and chose another direction...

In this way, everyone wandered like headless flies for several hours; here, no force was useful, and aside from finding a path, there was no other solution. When they reached a dead end, they stopped.

"It’s a maze, and it looks quite large. As for when we can get out, I can’t guess."

Looking at everyone, Lin Feng said seriously. He now realized this was indeed a maze and a very large one at that. He hadn’t chosen paths blindly, but after several hours walk in mostly one direction, he knew this maze exceeded anyone’s imagination. Even he wasn’t confident he could get out of it quickly.

"It’s okay, we’ll all face it together!"

"Yes, we will definitely find a way out!"

"Lin Feng, you lead us, we trust you!"

...

Hearing Lin Feng speak like this, Xia Lalan and others chimed in. Actually, they had long sensed that this place was a maze. With no solution for this maze themselves, they could only rely on Lin Feng; there was no other option. They didn’t believe they could get out of such a huge maze alone.

Hearing everyone speak like this, Lin Feng’s face revealed a faint smile. He felt their trust in him and nodded at them, then began to return the way they came. All the routes they’d taken before had turned into a map in his mind, so it was easy for him to lead them back.

However, unexpectedly, midway through their return route, they encountered another dead end, which furrowed Lin Feng’s brows again. He could be certain that this was indeed the way they came, but the path had changed, sealing off the hallway that they had originally walked through. This only indicated one thing: this maze could transform itself! At this thought, Lin Feng’s expression turned grim. The Heavenly Immortal Mansion Ruins were truly complex. Without finding the correct method to proceed, anyone could be trapped here!

Xia Lalan and the others were surprised to find themselves in another dead end; they completely trusted Lin Feng’s memory and couldn’t think of any other explanation except that the maze itself was strange. Worrying wouldn’t help, so they hid their concern, not wanting to add pressure on Lin Feng, waiting for him to lead them forward.

After thinking briefly, Lin Feng led everyone back, choosing another path to follow...

In this way, stopping and going, more than a dozen hours passed here. When everyone felt weary, Lin Feng finally stopped, allowing everyone to rest. Meanwhile, Lin Feng closed his eyes to map the maze in his mind, marking the places that had changed. Although this method was exhausting, passing through such a maze required it.

While Lin Feng and the others were resting, Wang Batian also found that black Pyramid. He didn’t hesitate a bit and rushed in. Like Lin Feng’s group, at first, he didn’t think too much, then haphazardly wandered through the maze. But as he went deeper, he often hit dead ends and realized this stage wasn’t simple; it was a super maze!

Moreover, the Divine Sense couldn’t scout here, making him feel even more oppressed. In annoyance, he suddenly had an idea, wondering if he could smash the walls with Power Energy. If possible, he could carve out a direct path and no longer wander aimlessly.

Thinking this, he immediately circulated Gang Qi, enveloping his fist in a moment with black Gang Qi. Once ready, he struck the black glowing wall!

"Bang!"

Unexpected events occurred. The wall did not shatter as anticipated; instead, nothing changed, just like before, which stunned Wang Batian. Considering that this punch could easily smash a stone mountain, he couldn’t understand why the stone wall showed no sign of damage, not even a scratch. This was incredibly unbelievable!

But just as Wang Batian stood there stunned, suddenly, eerie blue lightning flickered across the black wall, and in an instant, Wang Batian felt a fierce, boundless lightning strike him, causing unbearable pain, making his eyes feel like they were about to burst!

Fortunately, this was just momentary, and the blue lightning vanished in the blink of an eye. If it had lasted longer, Wang Batian might have ended up charred!
