The further down they went, the dimmer the surrounding light became. The sky seemed to darken as well, with twinkling stars in the sky, the moon, the Milky Way, and even meteors streaking across the horizon. However, when he looked around, he could still see neat rows of stairs.
At this moment, Yun De'er suddenly asked, ”Hey, this place is so magical. Did you hear what he called this place?” Jun Lanyue shook his head, and Yun Dai'er continued, ”Did you really not hear it, or were you just pretending not to?” He said this place is called the 'Origin of Grief'. I thought it was just a name, I didn't think that this kind of scene would appear here. ”
Just at this moment, they stepped onto the ground below the stairs. The ground immediately began to tremble, and the surroundings started to shake. Rumbling sounds could be heard. Soon after, a huge fireball descended from the sky, burning with raging flames. The few of them were immediately shocked. The violent wind blew against their faces, and there was a huge force within that force. This temperature became hotter and hotter, eventually becoming scalding hot and burning their skin.
Yun De'er screamed as she looked at the few people in the distance. Surprisingly, they were not affected at all as they quietly walked forward. It was only then that Yun Dai'er realized that what he just said was not true. She then patted her head, blocking his line of sight and said, ”I'm fine! This is fake! ”
They stood in the middle of a huge crater, surrounded by the crackling sound of electric currents. The power of the atom was starting to awaken; this was the place where everything was destroyed, and all the reincarnation cycle would come to an end.
Behind him, Sara, Feng Yu, and Ling Nu were all shocked. Yun Dai Er slowly took a step forward. The crater under her feet was like a huge transparent glass. They could still walk on it, but the surroundings were all lit up by fire, causing people to shiver.
Slowly walking out, the group finally made it through the illusion of whether it was real or fake. When they reached the opposite side of the stairs, the surrounding light gradually returned to normal, as if it was waking up. At the end of the stairs was the person who was smiling at them.
Although they looked calm on the surface, they were still frightened by the world-destroying scene. Hence, they said, ”Everyone, this is a world of light and shadows created by the Altar Master of Buddhism. You all need not worry.”
”Ah —” Yun-dell sighed deeply and said, ”Why is it called the Origin of Grief?” This person said, ”…” This was all personally arranged by the Altar Master Wu Yun. If you want to know the reason, please meet Master Wu Yun before you understand. I do not know what it means.
”Alright, alright, let's go!” Jun Lanyue waved his hand, stepping onto the last step of the stairs. The spirit woman also followed him.
The guard at the door also looked into the distance without moving.
When he stepped into the main hall, he found it empty and a little lonely. There were no people on either side of him, only the empty ground. There were giant dragons painted on the walls, dignified and magnificent. There was a tall platform in front of them, and on it sat a little girl. Behind her were two maids. Below the high platform, there were two rows of guardians.
Lin Che's immature voice shouted, ”Who are you!”
When Jun Lanyue heard this voice, he appeared cordial. However, during his stay at the Black Tortoise Mansion, he had not taken care of Lin Che, so he felt somewhat ashamed. Just as he was about to say something, he was pulled by Yun Dai'er.
Jun Lanyue knew what she meant, so he replied, ”Great Master Black Tortoise!”
