Chapter 845: Chapter 845
"I wonder if the Universal Image will still be effective here? If it doesn't work here, that could be a troublesome matter!"
Lin Fan quickly checked the Universal Image.
Soon after, a smile appeared on Lin Fan's face because the Universal Image hadn't lost its effect here and was still usable. This meant that with the help of the Universal Image, Lin Fan's subsequent actions would become much easier.
Lin Fan activated the treasure-seeking function of the Universal Image.
Unfortunately, there were no discoveries in the surrounding area.
Lin Fan aimlessly walked in a certain direction.
The reason why Lin Fan chose this direction was that he felt as if a voice was summoning him.
In reality, Lin Fan knew there was no actual voice calling him; it was merely an illusion, or perhaps more accurately, just a feeling he had.
Lin Fan still believed in his feeling.
He didn't know how long he had been walking. Read full story at novel·fire.net
A loud roar suddenly echoed, coming from within a towering mountain up ahead.
The sound was so immense that even Lin Fan felt his scalp tingle and his eardrums ache upon hearing it.
It was evident that the being capable of making such a sound was a truly terrifying existence, possibly even an Immortal.
"Let's go take a look!"
Without hesitation, Lin Fan decided to check it out.
Soon, Lin Fan arrived at the mountain.
He looked around for a while but couldn't find any clues.
"Could it be that the roar I just heard was also an illusion?" Lin Fan thought suspiciously.
He decided to retreat.
Just then, a sigh echoed.
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan immediately went into full alert mode.
If there were any danger around, Lin Fan would attack without hesitation at the first sign.
"Young man, there's no need to be so tense. I am part of the Human Clan, I won't attack you!"
As the voice faded, a distinctive Human Clan aura suddenly filled the air.
Lin Fan relaxed slightly.
Since if nothing unexpected happened, this person should indeed be from the Human Clan.
But at the same time, Lin Fan was curious: if they were from the Human Clan, how did they end up here?
"Who are you?" Lin Fan asked loudly.
The voice did not answer Lin Fan directly but said: "Haha, it's been many years since anyone from the Human Clan entered the Dark World. Who would have thought that after so many years, someone could still enter?"
After a slight pause, the voice continued: "Young man, tell me, how did you enter the Dark World?"
Lin Fan said, "I came through the Dark Gate!"
The voice sounded visibly shocked and asked: "Are you saying... the Dark Gate has been opened? Doesn't that mean the Dark Clan has entered the Holy Soul Domain?"
Lin Fan said, "You're right, senior. The Dark Clan has indeed entered the Holy Soul Domain."
The voice continued: "Since the Dark Clan has entered the Holy Soul Domain, it must be devastated! The Dark Venerate has immense power, and given the decline of the martial path civilization of the Holy Soul Domain, I suspect no one can stand against the Dark Venerate there. This is truly terrible!"
Lin Fan was now certain that the voice belonged to the Human Clan.
If not from the Human Clan, the voice wouldn't care so much about the situation in the Holy Soul Domain.
"Young man, what are you doing in the Dark World?" the voice asked again.
Lin Fan said, "I came in by accident!"
Although Lin Fan thought the other was likely a Human Clan member, he remained cautious, not knowing if the person was friend or foe, so naturally, he wouldn't reveal his real purpose in the Holy Soul Domain.
The voice chuckled and said, "The guard in young people is quite strong."
Lin Fan ignored that and asked, "Senior, where are you?"
The voice said, "I'm in the Dark Divine Mountain right in front of you, sealed inside. Sigh, I've been sealed here for nearly twenty thousand years!"
The person had been sealed in the Dark Divine Mountain for twenty thousand years?
Staying in the Dark World is already tormenting, and being sealed in the Dark Divine Mountain is even more agonizing...
Lin Fan couldn't imagine how this person endured two hundred thousand years.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan was very curious about the person's identity.
Why had they been sealed in the Dark Divine Mountain for so many years?
Lin Fan couldn't help but ask, "Senior, who are you, and why were you sealed in the Dark Divine Mountain?"
The voice didn't answer directly but instead asked: "Young man, have you heard of the name Yu Gong?"
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.
Lin Fan, of course, had heard the name Yu Gong.
The story of "Yu Gong Moves the Mountain" is well known.
But why did the voice mention this name now?
The voice continued: "In fact, you've surely heard of Yu Gong because the idiom 'Yu Gong Moves the Mountain' is well-known. Young man, I now tell you, I am Yu Gong!"
"Senior, are you really Yu Gong?"
Lin Fan was even more surprised.
The voice said, "Indeed, I am Yu Gong..."
After a slight pause, the voice continued: "Back then, the Dark World and Holy Soul Domain were connected, and in the Holy Soul Domain, there was an enormous Divine Mountain that isolated the entire domain, hindering its development. I thought to move this mountain away, but was initially unsure of where to relocate it. After countless years of investigation, I decided to move the mountain to the Dark World, and began the legendary Yu Gong Moves the Mountain!"
After hearing Yu Gong's words, Lin Fan was still shaken inside.
He intended to move the Divine Mountain to the Dark World?
Undoubtedly, this was a colossal project.
Yu Gong continued: "I kept moving the mountain, even forgetting the existence of time, until, eventually, through much effort, I successfully moved the mountain to the Dark World."
"Originally, my motive for moving the mountain to the Dark World was to facilitate the development of the Holy Soul Domain, but unexpectedly... that action caused the creation of the Dark Divine Mountain in the Dark World. Originally, the Dark World was quite unstable, and residents of the Dark Clan would perish yearly due to the harsh environment. However, with the establishment of the Dark Divine Mountain, the world became stable, and the Dark Clan entered a period of great development. At the time, the Dark Venerate recognized that to keep the Dark Divine Mountain in the Dark World, I needed to be sealed within it!"
"Later, the Dark Venerate used divine skills to seal me in the Dark Divine Mountain!"
"This seal has lasted twenty thousand years, and I have long wished to leave, yet I cannot!"
"Sigh, I am truly a sinner, for without me moving the Dark Divine Mountain into the Dark World, the Dark World wouldn't have stabilized, and the Dark Clan wouldn't have experienced such growth, nor would they have ever been capable of attacking the Holy Soul Domain. I am the Holy Soul Domain's sinner!"
