C303 Darkness and Silence
In the study, the middle-aged man in the dragon robe thought for a moment, he continued, "However, that girl is really a little too much this time around. She actually casually sent outsiders to Living Hell. That place was left behind by her ancestor. How could she allow an outsider to casually enter!?"
"Sigh, this is indeed the fault of Her Highness the Princess. There are many ways to punish those two people. It is indeed somewhat reckless to send them to Living Hell."
"Forget it. Since Aa Ke has already said those words and the news has already spread all over the place, we should not let her change it. Otherwise, it will harm her and our royal family's reputation."
The next day, Qin Feng and Wu Wenshuang were led away by Commander Ku and headed towards the depths of the Imperial Palace.
They were going to Living Hell to receive Princess Aa Ke's punishment.
After a night's rest, all the energy they had lost in the battle yesterday had been restored. Ike, Liang Ruxi and the others had also asked around for information. The Living Hell was founded by the ancestors of the Feiyu Country, and it had been passed down for thousands of years.
The Feiyu Country was known for its light and Wind Spirit Cultivator, and the old ancestor who founded this country was a peerless genius, a powerful Light Spirit Cultivator.
In order to train his descendants, he told them not to forget the hardships of their cultivation. That was why he specially built this Living Hell. Furthermore, only by experiencing the darkness could one truly understand the preciousness of light. Talent! It would make the Light Spirit Cultivator even stronger. If the Light Spirit Cultivator wanted to achieve extraordinary achievements, it would need to illuminate the world with a dazzling light. He had to first experience the profoundness and terror of the darkness.
Thus, after several generations of renovation in Living Hell, it became extremely terrifying and difficult. It became the most important indicator for training and evaluating the disciples of the imperial family.
It was said that in the past few hundred years, the Living Hell had truly become famous. It was as terrifying as a purgatory. Anyone who entered would have a slim chance of survival. However, opportunities often coexisted with danger, even though the Living Hell was extremely terrifying. There were layers upon layers of dangers, but once one walked out of it alive... There were bound to be many benefits to be gained from it.
Every generation, the Feiyu Country would send a few members of the imperial family to enter, and they would even bring in some outstanding geniuses to train themselves. However, very few of them were able to come back alive, but every one of them was a peerless genius. They would become the leaders of their peers.
The entrance to the Living Hell was located in a gloomy hall. The outside of the hall was heavily guarded, and no one was allowed to come close to it.
Today, this place had become the center of attention. Two outstanding geniuses from the Lei Kesi had been sent by Princess Aa Ke as punishment.
Everyone was paying attention to this place, waiting for the result. The geniuses of the Xieluya and Lei Kesi were not allowed to come here. However, they were also looking forward to it in the side hall. Princess Aa Ke, on the other hand, was leisurely playing in a beautiful garden in the Imperial Palace. In her heart, Qin Feng and ___ had already become dead men.
Qin Feng and Wu Wenshuang were forced to come to the entrance. It was a small teleportation formation that could lead to the underground and into the infamous Living Hell.
Qin Feng and ___ looked at each other and walked forward together. They were fearless in their hearts.
Commander Ku watched the two of them disappear into the teleportation formation from behind. A cold smile appeared on his face as he turned around and left. The door of the main hall was slammed shut with a loud bang. The interior of the hall was pitch black, and it was deathly silent.
Qin Feng and Wu Wenshuang had experienced the teleportation formation before, so they weren't unfamiliar with it. After a short period of dizziness and darkness, the two of them appeared in Living Hell.
It was dark all around, except for the faint light above, which could not illuminate the surroundings. They could only see blurry figures.
Wu Wenshuang was a Light Spirit Cultivator. Although she was only a Spirit Lord, she could still circulate the Light Element in her body to create a bright light. She circulated with all her strength and gathered on her right hand. Instantly, her right hand turned into a lantern that lit up a part of the world.
"Is this the Living Hell? A dark underground world?" Qin Feng whispered to himself and looked around with the help of Wu Wenshuang's light.
There was nothing around them except darkness.
The two of them chose a direction and walked forward. They walked for a long time, but they were still surrounded by darkness. There was nothing but darkness. Not even a living thing could be seen.
"Didn't you say that the Living Hell is filled with danger? But we haven't encountered anything until now. We have been in the darkness all this time. What is going on? " Wu Wenshuang was surprised and bewildered.
"A stretch of darkness... A deathly stillness... These are the things that humans fear the most. No one can endure the loneliness. If a person were to live alone in the darkness for a long time, his mind would definitely be abnormal. His mind would be in disorder. " Duan Tianqiu said in Qin Feng's mind.
" Is this a test and training? " After hearing Duan Tianqiu's words, Qin Feng thought to himself. It was said that the ancestors of Feiyu Country built this place to train their descendants.
The two of them continued forward, but it was still dark and empty. Only the two of them were there.
Qin Feng had wanted to use the Mind Power to investigate his surroundings, but he found that the Mind Power was restricted and could not extend out three meters.
Wu Wenshuang had long used up all the Light Element in her body. She wanted to meditate and recover, but found that she could not sense any Light Element in her surroundings. It was as if the Light Element had been sucked dry.
The faint light above had also disappeared without a trace. This place had really become pitch black. It could be said that she could not see her hands in front of her.
Helpless, Qin Feng and Wu Wenshuang held hands to avoid losing sight of each other.1
Wu Wenshuang's hands were extremely soft, as if they were boneless, smooth and elastic. Although Qin Feng was younger than her, his hands were very wide and thick. Because he had been practicing sword for a long time, there were some calluses on his palms. His blood was vigorous, and his palms were warm.
Feeling the warmth and softness of the other's palms, the two of them could not help but feel a ripple in their hearts. However, at the same time, they also forced themselves to calm their minds and not let their thoughts run wild.
In the darkness, the two of them walked forward unhurriedly. Their hands were tightly held, and their moods were somewhat strange.
After an unknown amount of time, the two of them finally got used to holding hands. However, they could not help but feel a sense of impatience in their hearts, because they discovered that the underground world was extremely vast. They had yet to reach the end, and it was still filled with darkness. It was empty.
It was like the end of the world. There was nothing but darkness. It made people panic. If not for the fact that there was another person by her side, Wu Wenshuang would have gone crazy long ago. Even Qin Feng, who was used to being lonely, would feel irritated in his heart.
