"What is that?" Syni Su was bbergasted. She could feel the intense powering from the grounds as if something wanted to get out.


    "..." Jin Rou didn''t know what to say. However, he was still calm and touched the shaking ground.


    "This isn''t right." He mumbled to himself. He could feel the terrifying powering below, "There should be nothing of a power this sort. Howe...?"


    Jin Rou had been here in the grounds since he was a child. Thus, he was very familiar with the twist and turns of this vastnd. However, it was the first time he felt something terrifying like this. As if a beast was wanting to be set free.


    "Syni, don''t move." Jin Rou saw Syni Su wanted to get closer to him. But he stopped her.


    "But..." Syni Su was still a girl. So, she was easily scared by this.


    "If you move, we''re going to roll down this ce." Jin Rou took a deep breath and exined, "I don''t know what''s happening but the ground is very sensitive right now. One wrong move, and a slight step and we will fall down."


    "Fall down?" Syni Su roamed her gaze but she couldn''t see nothing. Then, she activated her heavenly gaze that could pierce through the sky. There, she could see a deep abyss below them. The depth couldn''t be seen even her eyes activated.


    "This..." Syni Su covered her mouth with her jade-white hands from shock.


    However, she eventually calmed down after a few seconds.


    Jin Rou couldn''t help but admire Syni Su''s fast adaptability of new things. Not just anyone was capable of achieving this as it required a very strong mental fortitude.


    "What should we do then?" Syni Su was asking Jin Rou seriously. It was obvious that she was giving her full trust to the other party.


    "We need to lighten our steps. At the lightest maximum." Jin Rou suggested. It was the only way that he could think of right now. After all, flight and teleportations weren''t allowed here in the first ce.


    "Got it." Syni Su understood and immediately lighten her steps. Right now, she could walk on water without difficulty.


    "Un." Jin Rou nodded and did the same. But his was lighter than Syni Su''s, "We will take turns in stepping. For instance, you will wait until I sessfully stepped on. And after that, it will be your turn to do it, too. Until we reach the gate, we will do this."


    "I understand." Syni Su nodded seriously. It wasn''t the time to joke around as the abyss waiting for them below wasn''t a joke. She activated her maximum awareness and ability so that she wouldn''t be a hinder to Jin Rou. Though they had the same cultivation level, Jin Rou was still stronger in her mind.


    However, just when Jin Rou would begin the first step, suddenly the whole ground shook once again. But this time, it was worse.


    "Step, step what?" An unfamiliar voice suddenly rang their ears. It was a creepy voice that came from the deep abyss, "You think that method will work to get out of this ce?"


    "Who are you?" Jin Rou heightened his senses. He could feel an ominous presence creeping and watching them. However, he couldn''t trace where it wasing from.


    Syni Su almost flinched and ran towards Jin Rou. However, she remembered about what he said a while ago and stood still.


    "Kekeke. Who am I is not important." The voiceughed sinisterly, "What''s important is you are going to die along with the Su''s princess. Isn''t that great?"


    "A devil!" Jin Rou instantly recognized theugh and his eyes widened in surprise, "How you beasts are immediately..."


    "Here?" The voiceughed once again, "Of course, our emperor misses your family already and wants to pay a visit as soon as possible. So, we used everything in our resources toe here immediately."


    "..." Jin Rou was speechless. They miscalcted. His grandmother said that the devils would attack after a month or so as the preparations and expenses for a universal travel of arge scale wasn''t a joke. In fact, the Su Family had already used 1/4 of their full resources just to travel here.


    So imagine, what terrifying amount the devils spent just to make this happen.


    "We want you to die here, so just obediently do what I say. Will you?" The voice didn''t give a damn about Jin Rou''s status and title as he mocked him, "You are a useless king, so you wouldn''t be a help to your family so much as well die here. Don''t worry, your family will soone over so—"


    "Shut up." Jin Rou activated his spear and immediately crushed it down towards the deep below. It created a web of cracks as it pierced through towards the depth.


    "Boom!" The whole ground broke and everything fell down in a manner, including Jin Rou and Syni Su.


    Jin Rou looked down towards the abyss as he was falling while Syni Su was giving him an annoyed and strange look.


    After a minute of falling, Jin Rou had finally reached the bottom andnded safely. Of course, Syni Su was the same as well.


    The entire ce was filled with demonic qi that could suffocate and leave a victim breathless for a minute and die.


    "Oh? You chose to dive in yourself before I pull you." The voice rang once again, "But don''t you think it''s foolish? It''s like you''re epting your death bying here."


    This ce was a different dimension and Jin Rou was very aware of that fact. It wasn''t part of the grounds, to begin with.


    "I''m sorry to disappoint you but my time isn''t up yet." Jin Rou smirked and said, "Besides, I came down here to y by your rules. It seems like you want to y, so I might as well entertain you. After all, you prepared so much for this."


    Syni Su couldn''t understand what''s going on with Jin Rou''s head. However, seeing the overflowing confidence Jin Rou was showing, she couldn''t help but feel relieved.


    Perhaps, they stood a chance against this devil.
