Chapter 903 The Immortal Arrived (1/2)
Back in the space passage, Darren and Chaz could barely keep themselves upright as great pains wrack through their bodies.
As they began to fall, the bleak landscape rushed around them.
Eventually, their bodies hit the ground with a bang.
The impact broke several bones in their bodies.
”Huh. The ground here must be really hard. We barely even made a dent on it.”
And indeed, even with Chaz wearing his black armor on, the ground appeared untouched. There were no cracks at all.
Darren gingerly sat up and crossed his legs. He began the process of healing by assimilating the spiritual energy. It was obvious how the space passage had done a number on his body.
In the end, it took him an hour to recover.
”What is this place?”
Darren looked around him. It was a barren land with dark clouds hanging forlornly overhead. A cold wind blew, disturbing the stillness of the place every once in a while, and brought a light drizzle. From afar, the pale yellow outlines of the mountains loomed over the horizon. It was as if this whole place had already withered.
”It's different from how Chandler's scrolls describe it to be.”
The scrolls that Chandler gave to him had descriptions of all the cities. But he hadn't read anything that looked like this place.
”When we were passing through the channel, I think I heard someone saying that it's the wrong place... So maybe we are teleported to the wrong place?” Chaz murmured.
”I heard that, too, but I thought it was all just in my head,” Darren admitted as he recalled what the old man had said.
”Well, that's it then. We've been sent to the wrong place,” Chaz said. The disappointment in his voice was palpable. He had waited many years for a chance to enter the eighteen cities. But now, with just an unlucky accident, he wouldn't be able to fulfill his dreams.
”Don't worry. We still passed through the same passage that will lead us to the eighteen cities. Maybe we just landed on the wrong place,” Darren said, trying to console his friend.
According to the scrolls, there were also some large desolate areas surrounding the eighteen cities. These places were said to be so dangerous that even the masters of the eighteen cities did not dare roam these lands.
Chaz started to feel a little bit better at Darren's reassurance.
”What should we do now?” Chaz asked.
