After the voice fell, the ground started to tremble.
The podium sank back into the ground again and everything returned to as it was before the podium appeared.
It was as if nothing else was going to happen.
That was until an even stronger trembling came.
It was so strong that any normal person would have fallen to the ground and would have been unable to walk. But as they were all powerful cultivators, they could use their life energy to keep them standing.
Still, the vibrations were very powerful and it took them quite a bit of life energy to remain standing.
It took a long time to shaking before it finally started to weaken.
In front of them, there was a part of the ground that opened up and revealed a set of stairs that led down.
Judging by the dust built up at the corners of the stairs, it was clear that the shaking was the stairs coming up from under the ground.
Finally the shaking stopped when the opening in the ground completely opened up.
Lin Fan was the closest to the hole since he had been standing where the podium had been.
When he looked down, he found that he couldn't see the bottom of these stairs at all.
It led down at an angle, so he could only see a few flights down before it was all blocked off by the ground in front of him.
But when he stood there looking down, he could also feel a strong energy coming from beneath him. It was clear that there was something powerful that was down there releasing this presence.
When he looked down in his hands, he found that Xiao Feng wasn't surprised by this aura at all. There was even a curious look on Xiao Feng's face, as if he wanted to find the source of this aura.
Seeing this, Lin Fan couldn't help thinking of something.
This aura seemed very familiar and he had finally figured out why it seemed familiar.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was very similar to Xiao Feng's aura.
So did that mean that the one down there has the same bloodline as Xiao Feng?
If that was the case, then why did Hong Long get so excited about Xiao Feng if there was already a dragon that had the ancient beast bloodline in the Dragon Race?
No, Hong Long had revealed a surprised look when he saw this place, so the Dragon Race shouldn't have known about this place if even an elder didn't know about it.
Just what was the dragon that was down there planning?
He remembered that this dragon had called Xiao Feng its "successor", so did that mean that it wanted to pass something down to Xiao Feng?
But when it came to things like this in s, it would usually be a trap for the person who was sealed to steal the body of the one that they were passing things down to.
There was a possibility that this was all a trap to steal Xiao Feng's body…
Still, they had no choice but to go down since the item that they needed was down there. They needed the Dragon Stone to take care of the Azure Dragon Tribe's matters, so they couldn't just leave it there.
In the end, they had no choice but to go down.
However, they wouldn't let Lin Fan and Xiao Feng go first.
That was the bottom line for Hong Long, so he took the lead with Qing Ao behind him just in case anything happened.
At the very back was Momonga who was walking alone.
Then in the middle was Lin Fan who was holding Xiao Feng and Qing Bao Lan, Angela who held onto Lin Fan, and Yuki who walked behind them.
The stairs weren't that long, so it didn't take them long to reach the bottom.
When they arrived at the bottom of the stairs, what waited in front of them were a large set of doors.
These were doors that were clearly the size of a dragon, even though the stairs that had led down to these doors were the size of a human.
This seemed like it was very out of place no matter how one looked at it, even though this was the site of a dragon heritage.
On the doors, there were two dragons soaring into the sky that had been carved. Each of the dragons showed only a single eye and there seemed to be something missing from those eye sockets.
Based on the way that these dragons were designed, it seemed very likely that they would have to find some kind of gem to fit into those eye sockets before the door could open.
But that wasn't the case this time.
After they arrived in the room, there was a glow that suddenly came from the eye sockets.
This glow became stronger and stronger until it was a concentrated glow that filled these eye sockets. Then once they became this concentrated, they started pulsating inside of those eye sockets.
After pulsing for a while, there was a wave of light that was released throughout the room, almost like it was scanning the room.
As the wave of light swept through the room, it almost felt like there was some kind of spiritual sense that was sweeping over them. They tried to resist a bit, but they found that it was hard for them to resist.
This was a powerful spiritual sense that they had never sensed before, but it was similar to…the powers of the master of the store. It was similar to what was the God Realm Expert.
Even Lin Fan who knew that there wasn't actually a master to the store felt that this was similar to the power of the system.
The system wielded God Realm laws, so that meant that to be similar, this had to be God Realm spiritual sense…
But if that was the case, what was a God Realm Expert doing here?
Why did the Dragon Race not know that they had a God Realm Expert?
After the wave of light swept through the room, the light concentrated in the eye sockets suddenly released two beams that landed in the space in front of them. These two beams came together to create what seemed to be a spotlight.
Afterwards, there was a deep voice that said, "Let the successor come forward."
Everyone knitted their brows when they saw this and heard this voice.
Hong Long took the lead by asking, "Who are you?"
The voice didn't answer this and the spotlight just shined there in front of them without changing.
It was as if they didn't hear what Hong Long said at all.
Hong Long revealed an ugly look when he saw this, but he didn't say anything else since he didn't know who the other side was.
But to let Xiao Feng go forward on his own like the voice wanted…that was not something that they would accept.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo Hong Long was the one that came forward to step into the spotlight and said, "I am the successor."
There was a silence that followed after he said this before the beams of light suddenly became much stronger. There was a sudden flash before Hong Long was thrown out of the spotlight and slammed into the wall.
He had a shocked look as he wasn't even able to react to this sudden force that blew him away. It was as if it had appeared out of nowhere and it had blasted him with a force that he couldn't resist at all.
Then the voice said in a firm tone, "Only the successor can enter."
It was clear who he was referring to.
So now they were faced with a dilemma of letting Xiao Feng go alone or…they would have to fight whoever was behind this door who wielded the God Realm powers.
There was no good choice here…
In the end, Lin Fan decided that…he would go in with Xiao Feng.
The others looked like they wanted to stop him, but once Lin Fan made up his mind, it wouldn't be changed.
So in the end, they could only watch nervously as he moved towards the spotlight.
Lin Fan holding Xiao Feng in his arms walked forward towards the spotlight until he was right in front of it. Then he looked up at the door and said, "I want to go in with the successor."
There was no response to this, just like what happened with Hong Long.
So since there was no answer to his question, he didn't hesitate as he stepped forward towards the spotlight. Then in one swift step, he stepped into the spotlight with Xiao Feng in his hands.
There was no reaction at first just like with what happened with Hong Long, but then the voice suddenly said, "You, there's something strange about you."
There was a flash of light before the beams of light started flickering, as if they were scanning Lin Fan.
After a while, the voice said, "This feeling, it's a familiar feeling…"
There was another pause before it slowly said, "This is the feeling of void laws, but…"
After another while, the voice finally said, "Your request is accepted, you are allowed in with the successor."
At this, the door in front of them suddenly opened, but they weren't able to see what was inside. It was as if there was something that was blocking them from seeing into the room in front of them.
So Lin Fan turned back and said, "We'll be heading off."
Without waiting for a response, he headed into the room.
