Chapter 1400 Three Doors

"Old Ghost Chen, don’t just stand there, eat quickly, and then we can talk." Xia Yan looked at Chen Qing and the others in their pitiful state. He understood that Chen Qing and the others were stunned by Lin Feng’s actions, but now wasn’t the time for conversation. Without further thought, he urged Chen Qing and the others to eat first, regain their strength, and then figure things out.

Xia Lalan and others also nodded in agreement at this moment. Chen Qing and the others were really too weak right now. It’s only because they’re cultivators that they’ve survived without food for so long. Even a strong Divine Change Realm cultivator wouldn’t hold up otherwise. Eating and restoring tili was the priority, not talking; the discussion could happen later.

The hidden world cultivators, upon hearing Lin Feng and Xia Lalan, felt tears welling up in their eyes. If it weren’t for meeting Lin Feng and the others, they would’ve starved to death here. Thinking of this, they couldn’t help but feel immense gratitude towards Lin Feng. But with their bodies about to give out, they couldn’t afford to think too much and immediately grabbed food and water, devouring them fervently...

Once they had eaten enough, Lin Feng finally spoke to them again, "Did you find any clues?"

Lin Feng asked casually. He’d already figured out about eighty percent of the maze’s structure. If Chen Qing and the others had any clues, they might be able to get out even faster.

"We can’t find the right path at all. This maze is too big. Worse, it keeps changing, and we can’t leave any marks. Even if we put things on the ground, they just disappear later. Without meeting you, we’d have no way out."

Chen Qing’s face turned distressed upon hearing Lin Feng’s question. Honestly, they were ashamed. Despite trying everything they could think of, they hadn’t found a way out and were left wandering aimlessly, which was incredibly frustrating.

The other cultivators’ faces also turned awkward upon hearing this. If any of them had a clue, they wouldn’t have nearly starved to death. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to share—they simply didn’t know.

Seeing Chen Qing’s response and the expressions of the cultivators, Lin Feng understood and nodded, saying to them, "I can probably lead everyone out in about a month. If you have no other options, follow us."

"What!"

"Thank you so much!"

"We... we..."

...

Chen Qing and the others were overwhelmed with gratitude upon hearing Lin Feng. With Lin Feng’s assurance, what else could they say? On their own, they couldn’t have escaped in a month’s time, let alone a year. They would’ve starved by then. Now, they had hope, and they were filled with overwhelming gratitude and excitement, not knowing how to properly thank Lin Feng...

"No need to be so excited, let’s go."

Lin Feng, seeing their response, understood their feelings. So he nodded to them, spoke calmly, and turned to walk forward. There wasn’t much need for words now. Following him would surely lead them out of there.

Everyone watched Lin Feng step forward, and they all followed behind him, leaving the place together...

...

"What’s with this damn maze? Why is it so big, and why haven’t we found the exit yet!" Su Zhong stared at the pitch-black walls, feeling on the edge of insanity. He had used every conceivable method, even started drawing a map, but as time passed, he realized the maze was far larger than he imagined. He was uncertain when they’d finally escape.

Moreover, the maze felt overwhelmingly oppressive. A day or two would’ve been tolerable, but it had already been months, and they still hadn’t found a way out. Facing the endlessly dark maze every day was unbearable. He desperately wanted to leave immediately.

"Senior Brother, we’ve mapped out most of the maze now. I believe we can find a way out. There’s no point in getting anxious; after all, this Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal created such a labyrinth to trap people. It’s not like anyone wants to be here, but we have no choice. Let’s hang in there and focus on finding the way out."

Su Qi tried to comfort Su Zhong at this moment. In fact, she was already exhausted by the situation but forced herself not to think too much. This place was lifeless and dead; it wasn’t meant for people to stay. However, there was no way out other than finding an exit, and no one could do anything about it.

At this time, no one else spoke, but everyone’s expressions were quite grim. Su Qi and Su Zhong were in the same state, and of course, the others felt the same but just didn’t voice it. Facing such a massive and complex maze, any shortcut was impossible, and they could only walk out of the maze as time went by. Being anxious wouldn’t help at all.

"Alas, this Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal is really troublesome. Why make it so complicated? Forget it, let’s move on." Hearing what Su Qi said, Su Zhong could only sigh helplessly. From the time they had spent, he deduced that it wouldn’t take much longer to walk out of this maze. He knew what the situation was, but he was just venting.

After speaking, he shook his head and continued walking forward. Su Qi and the others didn’t say anything either and followed Su Zhong to continue exploring the maze, hoping to leave here as soon as possible...

...

In the blink of an eye, everyone had been here for over four months. Lin Feng had pretty much grasped the layout of the maze. After a few days of calculation, he successfully led everyone out of it. But to everyone’s surprise, when they exited the maze, they ran into Wang Batian and Su Zhong. Lin Feng was astounded, unaware of how these people managed to get out.

Like Lin Feng, the people behind him didn’t expect to encounter such a situation upon seeing Wang Batian and Su Zhong. They had been with Lin Feng all along and knew how complicated the maze was. They were not surprised that Lin Feng found a way out, but how Wang Batian and Su Zhong did it was remarkably strange.

In fact, Su Zhong and Wang Batian had also bumped into each other. With the shared goal of quickly leaving the maze, they combined the maps they had each explored. They were very fortunate; when they merged the maps, they realized that almost the entire maze was complete, allowing them to exit in such a short time, which would have been impossible otherwise.

Similarly, Wang Batian and Su Zhong’s groups were surprised to see Lin Feng and his team. They were stunned on the spot. It took merging their maps for them to pass through in such a short time, but Lin Feng had led so many people and still found the right way. This was astonishing to them!

However, none of them intended to speak with Lin Feng, and the group silently headed toward the maze’s exit. Before long, they entered a corridor that shone with a unique black and purple light, and soon they reached the end. At this point, a hall appeared, seemingly able to accommodate a hundred or so people without feeling crowded; instead, it was quite spacious.

On the wall opposite them, there were three identical doors without any markings. Undoubtedly, one of these three doors was the way out, but as they were identical, no one knew which one was correct!

At this moment, everyone looked at Lin Feng, unsure how he planned to resolve the issue of the three doors. But contrary to their expectations, Lin Feng sat on the ground and closed his eyes, appearing as if he were cultivating. This confused everyone, as they couldn’t understand what Lin Feng was doing!

Although everyone was anxious, with Lin Feng sitting there focused on his cultivation, they had no choice but to follow suit. So the people Lin Feng had brought with him also sat down and began cultivating. Knowing that the spiritual energy here was richer than before, they were determined to make the most of it as it was impossible to find such a place outside the maze.

Lin Feng’s group showed no intention of making a move, which made Wang Batian and Su Zhong frown. Wang Batian couldn’t act alone and simply stood nearby, keeping a close watch on Su Zhong. Impatient and desperate to leave the maze, Su Zhong had no patience to wait for Lin Feng and his group to solve the problem of the three doors.

"You, go into the left door!" After thinking for a moment, Su Zhong fixed his gaze on a young man brought by the Gu Family and directly commanded. Clearly, these three doors weren’t simple; he needed someone to take the risk and find out which door could be entered.

The young man was dumbfounded by Su Zhong’s order, standing there in shock. He never dreamed Su Zhong would give such an order. He knew very well what it meant; it was almost a death sentence, given how dangerous the Heavenly Immortal Mansion Ruins were and having witnessed the previous dangers. With his just entered Infinitesimal Realm strength, he couldn’t believe he would survive.

As this thought crossed his mind, tears welled up in his eyes as he looked towards Gu Nanshan, hoping to see what the Family Head would say. Gu Nanshan also noticed the young man’s expression and felt heartbroken. In the Gu Family, this young man was considered the most talented disciple next to his son. However, he didn’t have the courage to offend Su Zhong, especially since only the young ones could possibly explore the path. So he reluctantly nodded to the young man...

Seeing that even Family Head Gu Nantian was like this, tears streamed down the young man’s face as he turned and walked towards the left door. A sense of desolation filled his heart as he realized he had been abandoned. Now, all he could do was pray that the door he chose was the correct exit; otherwise, he would surely meet his end here.

Su Zhong and the others watched the young man intently, and in the blink of an eye, they saw him step into that door. As the young man entered, their hearts were on edge, unaware of the mysteries inside. To their surprise, the young man disappeared, leaving them uncertain about what was happening inside.

Just as they were speculating about what was inside, an unexpected event occurred!
