"I'm ashamed. It seems Young Friend Chu Feng has already realized that I'm having a rather difficult time remaining down here."
A look of embarrassment surfaced on Grandmaster Liangqiu's face.
He truly was ashamed. Clearly, Chu Feng's cultivation was far inferior to his own. Yet Chu Feng remained here with far greater composure than he did.
Although Chu Feng was also gritting his teeth just to withstand the force in this place, the truth was that this power inflicted less pain upon him than it did upon Grandmaster Liangqiu.
This let Grandmaster Liangqiu know that while he may surpass Chu Feng in cultivation, in terms of sheer willpower, he truly could not compare.
"Chu… Chu Feng, even if you don't go down, no one would blame you."
"I believe that even Brother Zhu himself wouldn't want you to throw your life away for nothing."
Grandmaster Liangqiu tried to persuade Chu Feng.
The more he discovered just how extraordinary Chu Feng was, the less he wanted Chu Feng to throw his life away in vain.
After all, Grandmaster Liangqiu harbored tremendous hopes for Chu Feng.
He hoped that one day, Chu Feng would shine brilliantly throughout the entire Sacred Light
After all, Chu Feng represented the
"Rest assured, Senior. I will definitely come back alive."
"After all, I still need to return to the
"Chu Feng, you…"
Hearing those words, Grandmaster Liangqiu's gaze immediately became complicated.
He had thought that he had successfully deceived Chu Feng. But Chu Feng's words made him realize that the lie they had told him had already been seen through.
"So in the end, we couldn't hide it from you after all?"
At that moment, Grandmaster Liangqiu began to feel uneasy. After all, the Heavenly Destiny Exalted had already made a prophecy.
"Chu Feng, the Heavenly Destiny Exalted has made a prophecy. If you and Linghu Hongfei were to fight…"
"Senior, I already know."
"There's no need for you to persuade me. My life, I decide for myself." Chu Feng said with a smile.
"Alas…"
Grandmaster Liangqiu knew Chu Feng was stubborn. He also understood that once Chu Feng had made up his mind, no amount of persuasion would make a difference.
"Senior, go wait outside for me. I'll bring Senior Zhu back with me very soon."
Whoosh—
After Chu Feng finished speaking, water splashed upward as he transformed into a streak of light, shooting straight toward the Mirror Heart Land.
Just as Chu Feng had anticipated, once he drew close to the Mirror Heart Land, he was locked onto by a tremendous suction force.
At that point, even if Chu Feng wanted to flee, escape was entirely impossible.
And after Chu Feng passed through the Mirror Heart Land, he fell into an enormous whirlpool.
The whirlpool was continuously pulling him downward. Although it wasn't fast, Chu Feng had no way to resist. Here, he could only sink along with the whirlpool.
In theory, this Mirror Heart Land was the core formation node of the Mirror Sea. Following it all the way down, the endpoint should have been some enormous formation.
Yet at that moment, Chu Feng felt a growing sense of unease.
He could faintly hear strange sounds rising from the immeasurable depths below.
It sounded like the clamor of battle, yet also like roars — like human voices, yet also like the cries of fierce beasts, and even like the howling of wind.
But Chu Feng simply couldn't tell what those sounds actually were. Moreover, the sounds were so faint and intermittent that even he couldn't be certain whether they were a hallucination or truly existed.
What Chu Feng did know for certain was that his heart had begun to grow panicked, uneasy, irritated, and even afraid.
