System: Replicating The Heavens
44 Ch 44: Terrifying Illusions
The five people continued to go down. They were on high alert. The more they walked down, the higher the gravity become and the more pressure they had to bear. They had already started regretting coming here so recklessly. They should have at least waited for news of what is below the abyss to spread.
It is said that a human's greed knows no bounds. They thought that a rare treasure has been born at the depth of the abyss, causing them to make plans and come here to explore the abyss without any worry in their hearts.
Although they knew that the abyss was dangerous and they needs to be extremely careful and vigilant of everything, they had never imagined encountering problems even before reaching the depth of the abyss.
Alex and others walked slowly. They knew they can not afford to lose focus no matter how terrifying the pressure they had to bear. There was no way to return for the time being, so they had to continue going down and look for a way to return.
As Alex was walking, he suddenly felt his cultivation base being affected and the next moment, his cultivation was sealed. Right now, he was no different from any ordinary person who have never cultivated.
"What the..." Alex was surprised. He was walking at the front, so to look at other four people, he turned back and said, "Do you guys' cultivation have also been se...???"
Alex stopped midway because he didn't find anyone behind him. At some point, Neon, Arlo, Kai, Ryan have disappeared, and he didn't even feel when this happened. The mystery of this place was increasing as he walked forward.
Alex became more cautious. He knew that he can not go back, so he continued his journey, but this time, he was more vigilant and observant of his surroundings.
Alex didn't know for how long he had been walking. He had already lost the sense of time as well as direction. The more he went down the abyss, the more lost he felt. At some point, he even had the feeling that someone was watching him from the depth of the abyss.
Alex was still walking when he suddenly noticed something and stopped. In front of him was a low knoll. He did not know why a knoll appeared at this place, but there seemed to be something different about this knoll.
Alex walked around the knoll and found a wordless tombstone covered in weeds. He struck out with his palm and shattered the wordless tombstone with his powerful strength. Then, a rumbling sound was heard. A black tunnel that led underground appeared where the tombstone had been shattered.
Cold energy rushed out of the tunnel, and a sound that could cause one's scalp to go numb could be heard coming from the tunnel.
"Didn't they say a meteor fell down and this abyss was formed because of that meteor? Why does a tomb appear here?" Alex was confused but he realized something and muttered, "Moreover, the meteor should be at the depth of the abyss, not on the way down the abyss. This tomb, there must be something special about it!"
Alex no longer hesitated at all. With a flash, he entered the tunnel. After all, at the very least, he came across something that was different from the never-ending-looking path.
The tunnel was pitch black and the chilly wind was blowing. Alex's eyes were filled with cautiousness. This was an unknown and nameless tomb, he had to be careful as he had no idea what he would come across in this tomb.
Alex had already prepared himself mentally. Once he found out that he couldn't solve the problem with his current strength, he would immediately retreat.
No matter how great the secrets and benefits he can obtain here, the prerequisite was that he could ensure his own safety.
This tunnel was very long and deep. After walking for about 500 meters, Alex suddenly discovered that the surrounding environment had changed drastically. There was no longer any darkness. He stood in the void, surrounded by dense Sword Qis. Suddenly, a rainbow descended from the sky out of nowhere. He took a step in the void and stood on the rainbow subconsciously.
The next moment, he was surprised by his own action.
Why did he had taken the previous step? Why did he step on the rainbow?
Although there were questions, there was no answer. At least, not for the time being.
To be safe, Alex took out the Heavy Earth Sword to be safe. Although this sword was sealed, it was still a Royal Grade Weapon. As for how powerful a Royal Grade Weapon is, Alex had no idea.
The moment Alex took out the Heavy Earth Sword, the path under his feet began to crumble suddenly. His heart immediately filled with unwillingness. He did not want to die here like this. He raised his sword to take action, but he was powerless to change anything. His sword and his body were destroyed along with the collapse of the path.
At the moment of destruction, Alex saw a very familiar figure. It was his mother and father whom he loved the most in his heart. Then another figure appeared beside his parents. This figure was Asna.
"No, I can not die here. I have to bring Asna back. I also have to look for ways to go back to the clear Sky World and meet my parents. They must be waiting for me, and if they had gotten the news of my death, how sad and heartbroken they must have become? I can not die here. I have to go out!"
Just as the path as well as his body was about to be destroyed completely, Alex showed an astounding will.
Suddenly, two rays of golden light shot out from the void, piercing through the world. After that, everything disappeared, and Alex found himself still standing in the tunnel.
Everything that happened just now was just an illusion. The special force that existed in this place caused Alex to be trapped in an illusion. If not for the figure of his parents and Asna suddenly appearing in front of his eyes at the last moment, he would have lost himself in that illusion forever, never to go out. His body would remain standing in this tunnel until his life force completely dissipated.
Alex took a deep breath. He finally understood the terror illusion at this place. However, this Illusion alone was not enough to stop him here.
Alex continued forward. One scene after another, the Illusion also continued to appear, trying to trap him. every illusion was stronger than the previous one.
Alex saw everything that happened on the day he was brought out by one of his father's confident and was killed.
He saw countless swords falling down like rain, piercing into his body, making him experience the pain he had never gone through.
Such kind of illusion continued to appear. many times, Alex almost lost himself in those illusions. Fortunately, he somehow managed to conserve his will and broke those illusions one after another.
After experiencing such illusions one after another, he almost became immune to them. Later, Alex didn't even care what Illusion appeared in front of him. He was incomparably determined as he continued forward, breaking all the illusions one after another.
Gradually, Alex found that he could easily break through these Illusions. This path that led to the great tomb had tempered his state of mind, making him even more determined and his will firm!
Alex walked into the tunnel that led to the underground grave. Strands of a terrifying aura began to fill the air around him.
He increased his speed. In the blink of an eye, he had rushed several hundred meters away. Soon, he saw light at the distance and knew that was the exit of this tunnel. Without caring about the strands of a terrifying aura, Alex rushed forward with full speed and in less than five minutes, he went out of the passage and arrived at a circular space.
The terrifying aura in this place was incomparably dense. It was as if Alex was standing in an ocean of these terrifying auras.
In the center of this space was a box made of wood. Alex could tell that the interior of this box was the source of the terrifying aura.
The box looked very ordinary, but it was covered with mysterious and complicated patterns. Alex looked at these patterns and found them eye-catching. He was not familiar with these things, but it did not stop him from observing them more carefully.
He did not know what terrifying thing was inside this box, nor did he know what will happen if he were to open the box. So, to be safe, he decided to study these patterns first so that he could at least understand what these patterns actually mean.
Maybe, if his luck was good, he might even find out whether opening the box would be safe for him or not.
