Chapter 2190: Chapter 2190

"Finally, we encountered some good people!" The Second City Lord couldn't help but sigh, nudging the Great City Lord and the Third City Lord: "Get up, it's okay now!"

The Great City Lord and the Third City Lord opened their eyes, looked around, and the Great City Lord asked curiously: "What is this place?"

"I don't know!" Su Yang shrugged: "I was going to ask you guys, do you find this place familiar?"

The three Crystal Skulls looked around and then at each other, nodding simultaneously: "You know what, it does look a bit familiar!"

"What!?" Su Yang was stunned. He originally didn't have much hope for these three, but unexpectedly, they actually found this place somewhat familiar, which was completely beyond his expectations.

"Then what is this place?" Su Yang quickly asked.

The three shook their heads simultaneously, and the Great City Lord said: "We just feel it's familiar, but we really can't remember what this place is. We just feel like the aura here is somewhat familiar, probably something we've seen before!"

"Familiar aura?" Su Yang frowned, thinking that there might not be any valuable information to be gleaned from these three.

At this moment, the Third City Lord looked at the black mist ahead and suddenly said: "Especially here, there are two familiar auras."

"Two!?" Su Yang was surprised. Isn't there just one mass of black mist here? How can there be two familiar auras?

"Yes, two familiar auras!" The Great City Lord closed his eyes and felt for a moment, then said in a low voice: "One is very familiar. The other is somewhat fearful..."

"Familiar, fearful?" Su Yang was stunned again. Indeed, there were two auras. But the question is, how are there two auras in this mass of black mist?

"What's inside this black mist?" Su Yang asked, surprised looking toward Su Zhan.

"There's something inside the black mist?" Su Zhan was even more surprised. He stared at the black mist for a while, shook his head, and said: "I don't know either. I tried to enter the central part of the black mist to investigate before, but I couldn't get in, so in the end, I gave up."

"Couldn't get in? Why?" Su Yang asked curiously. Since the black mist can be torn open, why can't one enter?

"It seems like there's an invisible force blocking me when I get to the middle, preventing entry at all," Su Zhan said. "I think there might be a prohibition inside."

Su Yang stared at this black mist for a while. If there's a prohibition inside, then is it used to seal that aura in the middle? And that is why there are two auras here?

And if that's really the case, then their previous guesses might not be correct. This black mist isn't waiting for someone to finish their cultivation, but rather it's guarding something here, right?

After thinking for a while, Su Yang decided to take a look himself. His cultivation of Devouring the World was different from Su Zhan's, so maybe the situations they encountered inside would also be different.

If he could figure out what exactly is inside the black mist, he might also be able to uncover its real purpose!

"I'll go take a look!" Su Yang said.

Su Zhan didn't stop him. He had been inside many times before without any danger. The only trouble was being unable to enter completely, getting blocked at a certain point. This time, Su Yang going in would also probably be a waste of effort.

Su Yang took a deep breath and walked straight into the black mist.

The situation was the same as Su Zhan had described. There were indeed no obstructions inside the black mist, and Su Yang found nothing peculiar as he walked through it.

However, as he got closer to the central part, Su Yang suddenly realized that the pressure inside seemed stronger. It felt as if an invisible force was pressing down on him, preventing him from moving forward.

Su Yang was surprised because this situation was completely different from what Su Zhan had described.

Su Zhan had said that there was an invisible force inside that blocked people directly. However, when Su Yang came in, it wasn't an invisible force he encountered, but this kind of pressure.

Although the pressure was also preventing him from moving forward, it didn't completely stop him. He could still manage to keep moving forward with difficulty.

Enduring the pressure, he walked further, and Su Yang faintly discovered a tall figure in the central area of the black mist.

This figure was floating in the air, surrounded by swirling black mist. From a distance, the mist seemed to come from the figure and at the same time, constantly entered the figure, which was very strange.

Su Yang felt a stirring in his heart. Could this person be the master of the black mist, the founder of Devouring the World?

By now, the pressure Su Yang felt had become very strong. Su Yang's power was limited, making it extremely difficult to walk here.

Yet, Su Yang still pressed on against the pressure, continuing to move forward. He wanted to see clearly who this person was.

Struggling to walk forward a bit more, Su Yang hadn't yet clearly seen the appearance of the figure but noticed something appearing beneath this person.

It was a black monument, and despite being obscured by the black mist, Su Yang could feel the monument emanated a strong and majestic aura. The monument felt similar to the Heavenly Sect Stele he had seen before, but its aura was much more powerful than the Heavenly Sect Stele.

With Su Yang's current strength, even seeing this monument from afar made him want to prostrate in worship, which spoke to the monument's immense aura.

As for the previous Heavenly Sect Stele, Su Yang, with his strength at that time, felt a desire to kneel when standing in front of it but was still able to remain standing.

The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.

However, the auras of the two were similar, which made Su Yang even more puzzled.

What connection is there between these two steles?

By this point, the pressure that Su Yang felt was so overwhelming it was difficult for him even to continue walking.

Nevertheless, Su Yang forced himself to take a few more steps forward. He didn't know how many more steps he could manage; he could only push himself to keep moving forward.

Given the current situation, it seemed impossible for him to see both things clearly. He could only attempt to see either the figure or the monument clearly.

In the end, determination paid off. After walking forward for a while and just before he couldn't hold on any longer, Su Yang finally saw the monument in its entirety.

Only half of the monument remained, with the bottom showing clear marks of having been cut by a sharp blade, with just the upper part remaining.

And on this half of the monument, there was only one large character inscribed - Dao!
