Chapter 457 Crypt (3)



Looking right down, it was like looking down into the pits of hell, but they weren\'t able to see a thing.

It was just pitch black down there without a single light. It was so dark that it almost seemed like it would swallow any light that entered it.

Mo Ze Chen had been trying to figure out how deep these stairs went and also what might be at the bottom, but he had had no luck at all.

In the end, he chose to pull out a glow stick that he lit up before throwing it right down into the darkness of the stairs. However, the moment the glow stick was thrown down, the light that should have come from it seemed like it was being sucked away by something that was around it.

It didn\'t take long before that strange suction force had sucked all the light of the glow stick away.

In the end, the glow stick had only travelled less than a meter before all of its light was sucked away, but it didn\'t stop travelling since neither of them had heard the sound of it making contact with something.

Lin Fan was much more sensitive to sound because of his sound laws, but even then, he wasn\'t able to hear a thing.

This glow stick continued falling out of sight and it took a whole minute before there was any sound that came from the stairs, but there was a sound that rang out in the end. This sound was very soft and it was very easy to miss, if Lin Fan hadn\'t been using his sound laws to listen for the vibrations, he would have missed it just like Mo Ze Chen beside him.

Mo Ze Chen had been standing there with a dazed look on his face as he was focused on listening for the sound, but he couldn\'t hear it in the end.

But Lin Fan had his sound laws, so he made up for him. With his sound laws, Lin Fan could tell from the way the sound travelled that there wasn\'t a small distance that was in front of them.

At the same time, based on the way the sound echoed down there, it was clear that what was underneath them wasn\'t a small space.

It seemed like it had been as he had suspected, instead of this place all being above ground, the majority of it was actually underground in this crypt.

But before they could move forward, there was still another problem that they had to solve which was the fact that there was something sucking away the light that they had.

Perhaps it wouldn\'t be as bad if this place was above ground and there were windows, which would give them at least a small amount of light. After all, no matter how strong the laws in this place were, it wouldn\'t be able to suck away the endless source of light that lit up this entire city.

So even if the place was a bit dim, with Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen\'s cultivations, that wouldn\'t be a problem since their eyes had been strengthened to the point where they could see a blade of grass a thousand meters away.

However, this place had to be underground without a single window, which meant that no matter how good their eyes were, they still wouldn\'t be able to see a thing. That was because they hadn\'t reached the point where they could see in the dark just yet and it would be dangerous to rely on spiritual sense alone.

Since that was that case, they had to find some source of illumination to light the way for them.

Lin Fan thought for a minute before suddenly calling out Xiao Huo who perched himself on his shoulder.

With a single thought, there was a ball of flames that appeared by Xiao Huo and started moving under Xiao Huo\'s control towards the dark abyss of the stairs. It flew forward and the moment it crossed the threshold of the stairs, there was an invisible force that suddenly started sucking away at the light that it produced.

When this started, Xiao Huo suddenly knitted his brows and gave a grunt since it was much stronger than he had expected, but he continued pouring more life energy into the ball of fire to maintain it. With this sudden injection of life energy, this ball of fire was able to continue burning, but it was clearly shrinking at a visible rate.

There was no doubt that the force that was sucking away at the light of the flames was much stronger than the life energy that Xiao Huo kept injecting into the flame. At this rate, all that would happen is Xiao Huo would run out of life energy to sustain the ball of fire.

Lin Fan could also tell from his connection with Xiao Huo just how straining it was for Xiao Huo to keep the light of the flames in the flames, so it was enough to show how strong the suction force in this stair corridor was.

So Lin Fan told Xiao Huo to stop supplying the ball of flames with life energy.

The moment Xiao Huo cut off the life energy supply to the ball of flames, the ball of flames almost immediately disappeared since it was already small enough to be swallowed right away.

Xiao Huo looked at Lin Fan with an unwilling look since he didn\'t want to give up this easily, but Lin Fan knew that there was no other choice since Xiao Huo just wasn\'t strong enough.

Xiao Huo and his other pets were all still in the low Fragmented Soul Realm in the end and they hadn\'t been able to break through since Lin Fan hadn\'t been able to set up the shop yet, so they weren\'t able to go into the cultivation realms to train.

It seemed like Lin Fan would need to set up a shop as soon as possible because it seemed that he was still much too weak…

Still, Lin Fan sent Xiao Huo back into the pet space and began looking around himself.

Since this crypt had been built as part of this trial, there must be some way to pass through this. After all, there was no way that whoever made these ruins and these trials wouldn\'t also leave a way to pass them since that seemed meaningless.

Lin Fan began walking around the small room that they were in, looking for a way to head down.

Mo Ze Chen had already figured out that Lin Fan had already heard the sound of the glow stick falling and he had also come to the same conclusion as Lin Fan about the light, after all, he had been watching as Xiao Huo sent the ball of flame into the stair corridor. He knew that without a proper source of light, it would be unwise to head down since it was too dangerous.

So following Lin Fan\'s example, Mo Ze Chen also started moving around the room, looking for something that they could light their way.

But even after searching the room for a few minutes, the two of them couldn\'t find a single thing since this was nothing more than a small and simple room.

It wasn\'t until Mo Ze Chen started getting frustrated and tinkering with all the things in the room did they finally get a clue.

There wasn\'t much in this room, but there were light sources in this room that lit up the room. There were a few torches that were hanging on the walls, attached to the walls by holders.

Mo Ze Chen went over to one of the torches and began pulling on it, trying to see if he could find some kind of hidden passage since that was something common in ruins like these. The most common pattern for opening these hidden passages was generally a torch on the wall, a book in a bookshelf, or some kind of hidden button.

Since there were no bookshelves here and a hidden button would be too hard to find since it was a "hidden" button, Mo Ze Chen chose to try the torch method.

When he pulled on the torch, it did start moving, but it didn\'t do what he wanted it to do. Instead of coming back with the holder on the wall, the torch came right out of the holder.

In the end, instead of opening a hidden passage like Mo Ze Chen wanted, he was just left standing there with a torch in his hand.

Lin Fan had seen him doing this and then he realized something. These torches, weren\'t they lighting up the room that they were currently in?

Looking over at the stairs, Lin Fan found that past the threshold, there was a bit of light that reached down into the stairs and allowed him to see a few steps in front of him.

But that shouldn\'t be the case since when Xiao Huo had tried to send his ball of fire down the stairs, he had immediately been met with this powerful force that had sucked away all the energy that was inside that ball of fire.

The strange thing now was that this strange energy didn\'t suck away the light that came from the torches.

Could it be that these torches were the key?

Lin Fan thought about it for a bit before saying to Mo Ze Chen, "Hand me that torch."

Mo Ze Chen was surprised to hear this, but he still handed the torch over.

With this torch in hand, Lin Fan approached the stairs.
