46 Small Buddha Temple (2/2)

Looking at the map Li Xuan had given him, he controlled the blood-colored avatar and sent it to the restricted zone carved out by the military. Since death was required, he might as well visit to figure out the mystery.

In the ancient, dark, and moist Underground Buddha City, there were crumbling walls everywhere. There was also plenty of sand and gravel that tumbled across the ground.

Zhou Wen saw a stone bridge when he approached the restricted zone on the map.

Typical stone bridges had flowers, grass, birds, or beasts patterned on the bridge railings. But this bridge had several colored, flying fairies.

They were in the form of young women as their clothes fluttered in the sky while they danced. It was a staggeringly beautiful sight.

Comparing it to the map, Zhou Wen quickly confirmed that the restricted zone was just after the bridge. The soldiers had died mysteriously on the other side of the bridge.

Zhou Wen was only gaming, so he naturally didn't have many apprehensions. He controlled the blood-colored avatar to step onto the bridge.

He didn't discover anything abnormal, it seemed an extremely normal stone bridge. The blood-colored avatar easily crossed and arrived at the other side.

Across the bridge, it's original appearance could no longer be identified. Boulders filled both sides, leaving a narrow path among the rock that was enough for a single person's passage.

There was a faint flickering of flames at the end of the rocky path. It was likely an illumination object such as a fire torch or oil lamp.

Zhou Wen carefully observed the path but didn't discover anything abnormal. He then controlled the blood-colored avatar to walk in and head toward the light.

The passage gradually headed up and it was then that Zhou Wen realized that there were stone steps at his feet. However, due to the mud and rubble, the steps had been hidden.

After walking for a while, he saw the stone steps exposed outside.

He didn't encounter any danger despite walking hundreds of meters. However, he didn't let down his guard as he kept observing the stone walls and the steps beneath him.

But nothing happened at all. Instead, the flaming light gradually turned clear. With it, he could barely make out a grandiose entrance.

The entrance had a plaque that was rather old and damaged. The red paint had mostly faded and the text was already very blurry. At this distance, it was impossible to see what the words were.

Zhou Wen controlled the blood-colored avatar to approach the entrance. Shortly after, he finally saw the words: 'Small Buddha Temple.'

What's Small Buddha Temple? Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised. He had heard of Grand Buddha Temple, but he had never heard of Small Buddha Temple.

While he was in thought, he suddenly saw the game screen turn black—clearly, the blood-colored avatar had died.

How did it die? He couldn't help but frown. He had been staring at the blood-colored avatar the entire time, but he didn't see how it had died.

After dripping his blood to revive, he sent the blood-colored avatar to the Underground Buddha City. He made the first stop at the lotus pond and spawned the blood-colored Buddha Heart Lotus, only to have the Mutated Skeleton Ant killed again.

The blood-colored avatar then headed to Small Buddha Temple, but it once again died mysteriously at the stone steps in front of the entrance. Zhou Wen had watched very carefully with widened eyes, but he failed to see how the blood-colored avatar had died under his nose.

However, Zhou Wen shared the same feeling when the blood-colored avatar died. At that instant, he felt all his organs suddenly contract.
