The Infinite Mystery

"Fan Xiaoruo?"

This was the first time Qin Feng heard this name. The interesting thing was that the name Fan Feng Yi of Hidden Orchid Pure Land and Fan Xiaoruo of Myriad Illusion Sect, both had the same surname.

"Oh, you might not know, Fan Xiaoruo is the cousin of Miss Feng Yi. Both of them came from the Fan Family of the Central Region. I don't know about Miss Feng Yi but Fan Xiaoruo entered the Myriad Illusion Sect one year ago and it is said that she is here on a mission that was given to her by the Fan Family." Jin Zhanshan replied with a smile and looked at Fan Feng Yi from the corner of his eyes, wanting to see her expression.

To his disappointment, Fan Feng Yi's face was being protected by a veil. Her face could not be seen by anyone, let alone her expression.

Qin Feng nodded his head and didn't ask any more about Fan Xiaoruo. Thinking for a few seconds, he looked at Jin Zhanshan with curiosity and said,  "Oh right, Brother Jin, what is going on here?"

"I'm not too sure about the specifics but I can deduce that it's related to those pillars!"

Jin Zhanshan's gaze focused on the black stone pillars on the altar as a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"Oh?"

Qin Feng frowned and the confusion in his eyes also deepened. He asked again, "Can I go over and take a look?"

"Sure, but if you go too close to the stone pillars, you will feel unwell and dizzy." Jin Zhanshan warned.

"I know."

With a little curiosity, Qin Feng walked forward. Fan Feng Yi and the other two girls didn't stand at the ceremony, they also walked towards the central area of the altar together with Jin Zhanshan.

This altar was really ancient.  After hundreds and thousands of years of erosion, the surface of this ancient altar was full of potholes. Between the bricks, a lot of soil had become loose.

Everyone on the altar, including Qin Feng, felt a sense of sadness when they stood in front of the pillars. With a majestic and powerful aura, an ancient and unsophisticated aura rushed towards him.

There were more than a hundred of these black stone pillars and the distance between each stone pillar was different. Rust stained iron chains wrapped around the stone pillars as if describing the long and arduous years of life that had passed in the past.

"What exactly is this?" Hua Xing muttered in a low voice and subconsciously walked towards the closest pillar.

When she was only two meters away from the altar, her expression changed drastically. She felt an extremely uncomfortable feeling that forced him to retreat.

"What's wrong?" Zhi Shu asked when she saw Hua Xing retreating.

"I... I had an extremely uncomfortable feeling when I stand in front of that pillar. I felt dizziness enveloping my head." Hua Xing replied.

The others were all amused when they heard this. But this also proved that the warning given by Jin Zhanshan not to go close to the pillars was right.

But it also piqued the curiosity of others.

Immediately after, Zhi Shu also walked forward to probe. Indeed, she felt a bit uncomfortable, but she only retreated after she was about a meter away from the stone pillar. Presumably, this was related to an individual's mental strength.

Qin Feng's eyes narrowed as he stared at the black stone pillars in front of him cautiously.

It was at this time when a warning rang out in his mind. It was from Xu Shang. She said, "Qin Feng, hurry up and retreat. It is extremely dangerous for you to stay here. This alter is used to seal an extremely powerful Demonic Beast and the seal has already loosened and is about to break. If you stay here, you'll die."

Qin Feng was stunned at first then replied with a smile, "Didn't I have you? You can save me at the critical moment, right?"

He could but chose not to block Xu Shang to see outside from the Mysterious Space of the Infinity Symbol. So, it was not a surprise that Xu Shang knew what was happening outside.

"I can, but I'll not. Now you already know that there is danger in front of you. If you still insisted on staying here, then it'll be your fault. I'll not save you!" Xu Shang replied.

"Aren't you afraid of your master punishing you if something happens to me?" Qin Feng again asked with a smile that was not a smile.

"You... Sigh! You are right. But I'll only save you at the moment of your death. Hmph, I'll let you experience some pain first for not listening to my advice!"

Xu Shang wanted to say something hurtful but then she sighed and replied with a puffed face.

"Wait, I'll let you see something interesting."

Suddenly, an idea appeared in Xu Shang's mind to let him see the danger in front of him. An obscure energy fluctuation appeared as Qin Feng felt something fusing with him.

Along with the obscure fluctuation of energy, the visual space in front of Qin Feng underwent a strange change.

"This is?"

Qin Feng's heart trembled slightly. He saw that each stone pillar contained a ball of red light. That ball of red light contained an extremely violent aura. This red light was exuding a berserk and fierce aura!

It gave off the feeling that there was a terrifying monster inside.

Immediately after, Qin Feng saw that the red light inside each black pillar was connected to the sky above the altar that was covered with black clouds. Qin Feng couldn't help raising his head to look at the sky. The thick dark clouds in the sky enveloped the entire altar. Threads of red light intertwined with the inner parts of the dark clouds. It was extremely strange.

A thought appeared in Qin Feng's mind: "The recent abnormality of the Demonic Mountain Forest must be related to this altar."

But what was the purpose of this?

Qin Feng calmed down and continued to check the sky. The sky was covered by dark clouds and a red light flashing inside the sky. Qin Feng used his spiritual sense and the strange power that fused with his body to try and see the light, but right at that moment, an extremely tyrannical aura suddenly suppressed Qin Feng. Immediately after, within the light in the sky, a pair of cold eyes that seemed to be the eyes of an ancient Demonic Beast appeared and stared coldly at Qin Feng.

In an instant, Qin Feng's heart violently shook and his expression changed. it was at this moment when he suddenly felt that all he had experienced in the Thousand Peak Mountain and the aura he felt from deep inside the Thousand Peak Mountain was nothing compared to the tyrannical and terrifying aura that pair of cold eyes gave off to him.

Seeing Qin Feng's condition, Xu Shang retracted her power that fused with Qin Feng. Qin Feng's eyesight returned to normal. The red light and the pair of the cold eye also disappeared from his sight. But for some reason, he could still feel a pair of cold eyes staring at him covertly and covetly, as if it had just seen a very interesting pray and wanted to play with him.

Qin Feng's back shuddered as he retreated a few steps. The sense of danger he just felt exceeded anything he had been through before. He clenched his hands into fists and was completely dumbfounded.

What was that thing just now?

The pair of eyes was that emitted red light was extremely terrifying. It definitely was not the eyes of a human. It was ice-cold, indifferent, and exuded a domineering and majestic aura that looked down on all living things.

It was not just him, Fan Feng Yi's condition was no better than him.

Because of her powerful perceptual strength, she could feel the same that Qin Feng was feeling just now. She could also say that above their heads was an existence much more terrifying than any martial warrior or Demonic Beast she has ever seen.

"We should retreat." Fan Feng Yi looked at Qin Feng and said with a trembling voice.

Fan Feng was a calm person. She has never been afraid of anything and was coveted by countless men. But at this time, seeing Fan Feng Yi's trembling figure and hearing what she said, everyone became confused.

They had seen fan Feng Yi like this for the first time.

Many people looked confused and many doesn't want to retreat for now. But there were still people who believed in Fan Feng Yi's decision and didn't hesitate to retreat.

They were Hua Xing, Zhi Shu, and a young man of the Myriad Illusion Sect. Qin Feng was also one of them. He was well aware of the danger that was looking down on them from above.
