Chapter 234 - Chapter 234: Chapter 225: Periphery Area? (2/2)

Li Tangyu was quite puzzled.

However…

He still took a step forward and said to Brother Yue:

“This brother, we are with him and wanted to wait for him before going to the cave tabernacle.”

Brother Yue frowned upon hearing this and said with displeasure:

“You can go in first. The cave dwellings inside are all independent from one another.”

“There is no difference if we enter separately…”

After saying this, he then turned to Lin Jing and said:

“You come in first, and I’ll take you to your cave dwelling in a bit.”

Seeing Brother Yue saying so, Li Tangyu did not persist any further.

If they had come a bit earlier, perhaps they would have seen the conversation between Brother Yue and Liu Yiyuan.

In that case…

They probably wouldn’t have felt at ease letting Brother Yue separate Lin Jing from the rest of them.

Such a pity.

They had likely slowed down earlier to avoid Liu Yiyuan.

Therefore, they did not witness the two’s conversation.

Lin Jing was the same.

Although confused, he still went inside,

However…

Brother Yue still had not returned the token to Lin Jing.

“Junior Brother…”

“You first take them in. I’ll wait for two more people and bring them in together.”

After Brother Yue finished speaking, that disciple of the Nanming Immortal Sect then said to Li Tangyu and the others:

“Let’s go, everyone.”

Seeing Lin Jing had entered, despite their doubts, they followed the Nanming Immortal Sect disciple inside.

After they had gone in,

Brother Yue waited a bit longer. Seeing no one else was coming, he then said to Lin Jing:

“There’s hardly anyone coming behind us, I’ll take you inside first.”

After speaking…

Brother Yue instructed the other disciples guarding the entrance of the cave and then led Lin Jing into the depths of the cave.

Lin Jing felt something was amiss with what Brother Yue said, but couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was wrong at the moment.

Afterwards…

Lin Jing thought that since this was the territory of the three major sects, there probably wouldn’t be any danger. After pondering, he still followed…

Upon entering the cave, Lin Jing realized…

The interior was filled with bizarre rocks and formations, looking like an ancient cavern that had formed long ago.

Among these rocks, there were scattered crystals, sparkling brilliantly, quite beautiful to behold.

Beyond that.

The spiritual energy here contained some indescribable mystical element, making each inhalation feel very refreshing.

The cave seemed very deep, but as the two walked further inside, it didn’t feel gloomy at all.

Moreover.

Along the way, there were numerous magic artifacts for illumination embedded in the cave walls, emitting a soft glow that was particularly reassuring in this cavern.

Lin Jing thus continued to follow Brother Yue ahead of him.

They walked for almost half an hour before turning at a bend.

Suddenly…

A fork with two cave entrances appeared ahead.

On the rock above each entrance, a sign was placed indicating the destination of each pathway.

The sign above one of the paths was labeled “Internal Region.”

The other slanted pathway had a sign stating “Outer Region.”

Clearly.

These two paths led to different areas.

Moreover, Lin Jing could distinctly feel that the mysterious element in the cave leading to the internal region was much more concentrated.

Thereafter.

He saw Brother Yue head straight for the fork labeled “Outer Region.”

Lin Jing immediately became suspicious and stopped in his tracks, asking Brother Yue:

“Brother, my token is for the internal region, why are you taking me to the outer region?”

Originally.

Elder Master Li had told them when he handed them the tokens.

Their tokens were for the internal region.

And he also warned them not to go to the core region, Lin Jing remembered it very clearly.

Yet now.

The Nanming Immortal Sect disciple leading him in was actually trying to take him to the outer region.

Of course, this would arouse Lin Jing’s suspicion.

Brother Yue saw Lin Jing standing still and questioning him,

So he turned around and said with a frown:

“Your cultivation is too low, it’s not suitable for you to enter the internal region.”

“I’ll give you a token for the outer region later, and you’ll cultivate there instead.”
