Chapter 994: Chapter 303: The Dead_2

Shen Jinxuan turned her face slightly, as if there were a light breeze, and asked with a smile: “Do you feel something similar?”

Su Changxing nodded: “Yes, let’s speed up and move forward, we should be able to get out soon.”

This place probably exists in the crevice of the world, also commonly known as subspace, which is generally riddled with spatial rifts. But here, there is nothing, suggesting that it has been artificially transformed this way.

The crisp sound came from the front, like the sound of metal clashing.

“There’s the sound of chains.” Shen Jinxuan was the first to react, looking in the direction of the sound, there seems to be a black spot at that location.

Su Changxing looked at the black spot: “That’s a door…”

Shen Jinxuan thought for a moment and said: “Is it the passage to exit? Seems a bit far.”

“Maybe.” Su Changxing replied, continuously observing the surrounding space, seeing intricate lines, unlike anything in subspace, but rather a small independent world, though its rules are entirely different from the normal world.

Here, water flows without ripples, and sound can travel far, continuously transmitting forward until it disappears.

Therefore, despite being far away, they could still hear the sound of chains coming from the door.

“There should be something inside.” Shen Jinxuan stated confidently, having left the Death Rift, the oppressive atmosphere eased, and she spoke more eagerly.

Sean raised an eyebrow, suddenly feeling uneasy: “Inside… could it be a demon?”

This distance is long yet not long, mainly because time passes very slowly in this place. If not for Su Changxing’s strong perception, one might even think time is still here.

Indeed, it was a door, hovering mid-air about half a meter above the ground. Even from a distance, one could see different scenes inside the door, unlike the pitch-black outside.

Sean looked cautiously at the door ahead: “Should we go in?”

But before he finished speaking, Su Changxing stepped in, followed by Shen Jinxuan: “If you’re scared, just wait outside?”

Sean looked back at the pitch-black surroundings, his face twitching uncontrollably, immediately following suit: “No way, I have to follow you guys, I’m the guide.”

Though he was a Tier Six Extraordinary, his courage was really small, probably less than Shen Jinxuan.

Even though Shen Jinxuan’s courage wasn’t considered great either.

Su Changxing was quite puzzled why someone like Sean could survive so long in the Death Rift, given his overly small courage.

Perhaps it’s a special kind of talent.

A long corridor, spacious and grand, with bronze pillars on both sides, engraved with various demon reliefs, yet not making the environment bizarre, but rather solemn and dignified, like a sacred place.

As for why it’s certain the engravings are demons, it’s because some Su Changxing has seen in the Death Rift, though drawn not very much alike, but it retains a semblance, and the person who engraved these must be a Soul Painter.

The sound of chains came from the end of the corridor, clearly heard from the doorway, though the sound seemed to be getting smaller, the impact weakening.

“Let’s go in and check it out.” Su Changxing observed the surroundings, decisively said, leading the way further inside.

Sean pointed to the blue crystals on the pillar, shocked: “These are Celestial Calamity Demon crystals, there are so many here.”

Shen Jinxuan walked over, observing the blue crystals, eyes widened: “The value of these things must be high, right?”

Sean nodded: “Definitely, Celestial Calamity Demon crystals can exchange for hundreds of Black Coins, the value is undeniably high.”

“But I see the demon crystals here might be part of some energy flow, best not to touch them.”

Before he finished speaking, Shen Jinxuan just pried off a piece of blue crystal from the pillar, looking very relaxed, seemingly without much effort.

“…” She glanced back at Sean, looked down at the beautiful crystal in her hand, “You didn’t mention it early enough, but it seems there’s no change.”

After speaking, she pressed the crystal back, somewhat reluctantly, seemingly revealing a certain attribute of being a money-lover.

Su Changxing acutely felt a slight change in space just a moment ago.

It was quite strange, he originally thought the ones on the pillar were just decorations, unexpectedly they have an actual function.

“Try removing all these crystals.” He looked at Shen Jinxuan and Sean and said.

Shen Jinxuan turned to Su Changxing, blinking: “Are you sure this won’t be a problem?”

Su Changxing reached out and took down a blue crystal from the adjacent pillar, shaking his head: “Not sure, I thought they were just decorations, but now it seems they aren’t.”

[Demon Crystal: Seems just a decorative piece hanging on the pillar, but perhaps with underlying secrets… This is a kind of demon skilled at creating illusions.]

There exists something here, not only deceiving him but almost fooled the Eye of Data as well.

Shen Jinxuan squinted her eyes slightly, with an inexplicable smile, pried off one demon crystal from the wall after another, asking: “What usual functions would this thing have?”

Sean also looked over, unsure what the demon crystals actually do, in the Death Rift, hunting demons to get such crystals always sold in attics for Black Coins, then exchanged for other things.
