Chapter 209 Secret Dungeon: Unearthing Mysteries and Forbidden Knowledge

[New Mission Unlocked: Kill Lin Fan]

Zhao Tianming's expression immediately shifted to surprise as he observed the hologram before him.

Unexpectedly, a sudden new mission had emerged. However, he promptly stroked his chin, contemplating that if there was a fresh task, Lin Fan must be in the vicinity.

His attention then focused on Jin Ling, and he inquired, "Is there a disciple named Lin Fan here?" His tone resonated with curiosity.

Jin Ling raised an eyebrow, "Lin Fan? I'm not familiar with that name, but there's a member from the ancient Lin family who joined the Heavenly Demon sect," he replied.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianming remained silent. Instead, he redirected his gaze to the hologram, muttering to himself, 'System, do you possess any additional information about Lin Fan?'

However, there was no response from the system regarding this inquiry.

Zhao Tianming sighed. Sometimes, the lack of communication from the system made it challenging for him to track someone from the mission.

In the end, he dismissed the hologram and turned his attention back to Jin Ling. With composure, he stated, "Elder Jin, guide me around. I wish to uncover more details about Lin Fan," his tone resolute.

"What about our previous serious discussion?" Jin Ling inquired, his brow furrowed.

"That can be revisited at another time. Besides, you have no option but to align with my plan. Furthermore, your informant did an excellent job gathering information about that ancient location, so I believe there's no significant issue with our strategy," Zhao Tianming responded, displaying nonchalance.

Jin Ling's expression turned somber upon hearing this. He sighed and acquiesced, "Very well, follow me."

Zhao Tianming grinned with satisfaction, and with that, they both rose from their seats and exited the building.

The sun's intense rays grew hotter, yet a gradual coolness settled in with the passing time. It was 2 PM, and within the Heavenly Demon sect's premises, students remained active.

Particularly, in a field where hundreds of students gathered to witness the monthly competition among outer disciples.

Typical of sects, the area was segmented into five zones: outer disciple, inner disciple, core disciple, elder, and the sect leader's palace area, each with distinct facilities.

On a high mountain slope in the Heavenly Demon sect, Long Tian, Li Yue'er, Ling Han, Su Chen, and Mo Yuegang descended through an unmarked path, surrounded by a dense forest.

As they conversed during their descent, Su Chen led the group. At this moment, Mo Yuegang had no malicious thoughts towards Long Tian. What he had in mind was to build good relations with Long Tian, which would undoubtedly benefit both him and the Heavenly Demon sect.

After a few minutes of traversing, they halted at a location resembling a dungeon, its entrance concealed by wooden coverings.

Long Tian raised an eyebrows, observing this place hidden among the trees on a steep mountain.

"How did you come across this place, Elder Su?" he inquired.

While engaged in conversation, Li Yue'er noticed that Long Tian seemed disinterested and was immersed in reading a book.

Approaching him, she inquired, "What are you reading, Long Tian?"

Long Tian remained silent, his attention entirely focused on the book's contents. The cover revealed the inscription: "Long Family - Nine Dragons Breathing Technique."

His expression soured, "Sect master, I believe your predecessor should clarify why this technique is present here," he stated, shifting his gaze to Mo Yuegang.

"What do you mean, young master?" Mo Yuegang inquired.

Long Tian simply handed the book to Mo Yuegang.

Taking it, Mo Yuegang's eyes immediately fell on the writing on the book cover: "Long Family - Nine Dragons Breathing Technique."

His expression tightened as he spoke, "This technique has existed here for thousands of years, and I've only recently discovered it. I..." his words trailed off as he diverted his attention to the entrance.

His forehead wrinkled, "Do you all sense something?" he asked.

Ling Han squinted, nodding, "I do. There are two auras approaching here," he responded.

Mo Yuegang suddenly extinguished the fire in his hands and said, "Let's hide and see who is coming. Considering Elder Su has assured that no one else knows about this place, I think that's not entirely true."

Su Chen's expression turned sweaty upon hearing this; he had indeed cautioned his disciples to keep this place a secret, yet two presences were approaching.

They all concealed themselves behind the cabinet, with Mo Yuegang helping to mask their auras.

Meanwhile, outside the dungeon, two figures approached the entrance—Zhao Tianming and Elder Jin Ling.

Zhao Tianming wore a somewhat somber expression after scrutinizing the list of Heavenly Demon sect members and finding no trace of anyone named Lin Fan. He had no choice but to try something else.

His gaze shifted to the open wooden-covered entrance of the dungeon.

"Is this the location your disciple mentioned?" he inquired.

Without hesitation, Jin Ling affirmed, "No doubt about it; this is the place."

Zhao Tianming nodded. Instead of immediately entering, he fixed his gaze on the hologram before him.

[Demon's Nest: The place where your great journey begins, or the place where your downfall starts]

In the early stages of acquiring the system, he received a beginner's reward—a map pinpointing secret locations and treasures. One of them was within the Heavenly Demon sect, believed to be this very place. Despite the ominous terms "great journey" or "downfall," he had already visited three locations with similar warning holograms, each bestowing great power.

And now, at the fourth location, he was confident it wouldn't differ from the three places he had explored previously.

"Let's go in, Elder Jin," he decided.

With a nod from Jin Ling, the two ventured into the dungeon.
