The Emptiness Dragon System
CH.53RD. Second Layer

The hundreds of Origin Kings that gathered were completely unable to accept this kind of reality.

Everyone looked glum, especially as they looked at the corpses lying on the ground.

If this Dragon Altar was just an illusion, what would these people die for?

"Miss Qin, can you explain all this?"

Suddenly from the crowd someone turned his head towards Qin Wu who was quite far behind.

Qin Wu could not advance too far due to his low strength and had already stopped walking a moment ago.

Hearing this accusation, Qin Wu frowned, and raised his head, then said, "What do you mean?"

"Hmph, does Miss Qin not understand what I mean? You're the one who told us about this Dragon Altar, and we all believe in you, but the truth is that it's fake! After many people were killed and injured here, is Miss Qin still pretending not to know?"

This man was filled with anger, as if Qin Wu had already deceived them and was in charge of the people who had died.

What he said was in line with what many cultivators believed. Everyone stared coldly at Qin Wu.

Qin Wu's brows furrowed, but before he spoke, the guard next to him gave a cold snort and snapped, "Didn't you think before you speak? What does this have to do with Young Miss?"

"What does this have to do with him? If it wasn't for Miss Qin saying nonsense, we wouldn't …"

"Will not go forward without hesitation?"

Before this man finished speaking, Yuan Tian suddenly cut in and sneered, "Don't be silly. You all know, even if Miss Qin doesn't say anything, with such a great opportunity before your eyes, will you just shut up?"

Hearing what Yuan Tian said, many people lowered their heads and began to ponder.

Even without an explanation from Qin Wu, none of them would ignore this Dragon Altar. Just like they were doing now, they would swarm around and end up in the same situation.

In other words, the presence or absence of Qin Wu, the situation would not change.

"Miss Qin is good enough to advise you, but now that you blame her, aren't you ashamed?" Yuan Tian stared coldly at the cultivator who spoke earlier.

This man agreed with Yuan Tian, and his eyes began to glow.

"Miss Qin is not wrong. If anyone dares to accuse him again, they will become my enemies," Yuan Tian said indifferently.

"My Chu family agrees!" Chu Qing chimed in with a smile, not missing this opportunity to take a benevolent stand and improve the reputation of his Chu Family.

"Right, we don't blame Miss Qin. Miss Qin did not need to respond to such a trivial matter."

"Yes, if not for Miss Qin, we don't know what this thing is, instead of saying thank you, instead of accusing. People like this were nothing but a disgrace to the cultivators of the Sky Water City. It was a shame to stand between them!"

As the crowd took a stand, the face of the man who had just accused Qin Wu reddened, he was eager to look for a hole to cover up his embarrassment and never came out again.

Not far from there, Qin Wu smiled and said elegantly, "Thank you very much for all your understanding, but, This Dragon Altar really has a precious treasure."

"Where?" Yuan Tian's expression became hot and he hurriedly asked.

Qin Shan's face sank as he looked at Qin Wu, he prayed that Qin Wu would not divulge anything.

Qin Wu smiled slightly and replied, "His treasure ... The Dragon Altar itself. Perhaps the thing placed on it was only an illusion, but the Dragon Altar was refined from the Dragon Bone, one of the Refining Artifacts materials coveted by many cultivators even Emperor."

With just these words, everyone's expression became fierce again.

Qin Wu sighed, "But .. With our paltry strength, there's no way we can take it. If it were that easy, it would have already been taken by a powerful master a long time ago, and if we tried to attack it, it would most likely trigger a much stronger barrier, though, so I advise everyone not to act rashly."

Hearing what Qin Wu said, Yuan Tian's expression gradually calmed down. They turned their head towards the Dragon Altar and sighed.

The treasure was right in front of them, but they could not seize it, which made them discouraged.

After the treasures in the Dragon Altar disappeared, the barrier also lost its pressure.

Seeing this situation, Qin Wu smiled lightly, he turned around, and walked out.

Qin Shan sighed and also walked out.

Several dozen cultivators flew in different directions.

Qin Shan chose a random direction and went to look for the Pillar of Light that led to the second layer.

It shouldn't be hard to find this Pillar of Light. As long as he was close enough, he could definitely find a clue.

As Yu'er saw Qin Shan bewilderedly searching for the Pillar of Light, he said, "Among the mountains, behind the misty edges, surrounded by clear springs, pillars of light will appear."

"Huh? What do you mean Yu'er?" Qin Shan pouted.

"Your knowledge is absolutely incredible!" Qin Shan sincerely admired Yu'er's intelligence.

...***...

Seven days later, Qin Shan frowned and he stared at the mountains in front of him. An anxious expression was seen on his face.

He had been searching for the entrance to the second layer all along but had yet to find any trace of it.

What Yu'er said that day was still ringing in his ears, so he followed his instructions and searched all the mountains he found.

He had no idea what the mountain range before him was currently the target he was looking for.

To find out, he had to go there and prove it.

In an instant, Qin Shan's figure moved forward.

After a while, Qin Shan landed at the base of the mountain, he looked around, and flashed a happy smile.

This place was surrounded by mountains and covered in mist, as Yu'er said.

Qin Shan moved forward and looked up his head looking at the sky. The luminous door stood right in front of him.

Frowning, he retreated a few steps and the Pillar of Light in front of him simply disappeared. Stepping forward again, a pillar of light reappeared.

Without any hesitation, Qin Shan leaped inside.

When it appeared in the second layer, this place was no different from the first layer. The world energy was still very thin, unsuitable for cultivation.

However, the second layer seemed to be much more dangerous than the first layer.

Qin Shan had already explored the first layer but had not encountered many powerful traps and barriers.

But after arriving at the second layer, he could feel many energy waves hidden under the supervision of his Dragon Sense.

However, with his System Map, Qin Shan was not worried about facing danger as the Spirit Array trap was clearly visible on the screen, hence he could choose the path safely.

Half a day later, Qin Shan arrived at a windy valley that was about a thousand meters wide.

At that moment, there was suddenly a terrifying suction force coming from below, making him fall uncontrollably.

Qin Shan's face changed drastically.

He pushed his Source Qi trying to withstand this suction force.

But his efforts were in vain. Even with his Pseudo-Dao Source cultivation, he couldn't even slow down the fall.

The wind whistled as Qin Shan fell increasingly faster, a stinging pressure began to be felt on his face.

Qin Shan finally started to panic.

He understood that he had already triggered a trap that his System Map could not detect.

Such a powerful pressure was impossible to create by humans, it must have formed naturally.

A naturally formed Spirit Array was extremely difficult to detect.

If his descending speed continued to increase, even with Qin Shan's tyrannical physique, he would definitely die from this devastating impact.

It will be a very sad death.

Without a second thought, he fled to the System World.

A while later, a thud sounded as Qin Shan reappeared at the bottom of the valley.

He tried to stand up but suddenly he was sucked to the ground, not even lifting a single finger could.

Gravitational field? Qin Shan's expression sank.

Qin Shan released his Dragon Sense to check his surroundings.

However, the pressure here was too frightening, even making his Dragon Sense warp.
