Legend of Dragon Son-in-law - Chapter 1520: The Pool

Chapter 1520: Chapter 1520: The Pool

“Stop!”

Jeffrey Wolfe was initially taken aback, then said sternly, “I also opened this tomb door. Even if you didn’t walk the path I trod, you still have to pay!”

He didn’t do this for the money.

Hillcrest Island is isolated overseas, rarely in contact with the outside world.

To them, money is of the least use.

In the eyes of the people of Hillcrest Island, there are no rules in the world to speak of.

What they want, they simply take by force. Those they wish to kill, they simply kill.

What use is there for money?

It’s merely a product of rules.

Now blocking the tomb entrance, they’re just finding a reason to prevent others from entering.

The news of the opening of the Azure Emperor’s tomb had already spread months ago.

Over three hundred years ago, the Sect Leaders from Hillcrest Island and the Spirit Serpent Sect came here to explore.

After all, there’s no wall impenetrable to the wind.

Once one person knows about the Azure Emperor’s tomb, many will come to know about it.

The difference between one person knowing a secret and countless people knowing it.

The exploration back then caused heavy casualties for the two sects.

But they also discovered some miraculous things.

It’s precisely the records left by their predecessors that made them choose to explore the tomb again.

Three hundred years ago, only ten forces arrived.

But today, three hundred years later, nearly a thousand might come.

To them, every additional person is a threat.

Jeffrey Wolfe stood in the doorway, intending to block these people.

Before leaving the Azure Emperor’s tomb, they didn’t want to make too many enemies.

But the man in front of them, who was alone, didn’t scare Jeffrey Wolfe at all.

However, to his surprise, Julius Reed simply ignored him and walked straight inside.

Jeffrey Wolfe signaled to his subordinate, and a young Taoist holding a Longsword ran over to block Julius Reed, sternly saying, “Didn’t you hear my master’s question?”

Too arrogant!

Although Hillcrest Island rarely appears in the world, Jeffrey Wolfe had just demonstrated their sect’s dominance.

And this young man wasn’t afraid at all?

Dared to ignore his master’s words?

But Julius Reed continued to walk inside, as if he hadn’t heard a thing.

“Stop!” The disciple of Hillcrest Island finally became enraged!

Ignored him?

Then be prepared to suffer!

“Do you recognize who my master is?”

He raised his sword and blocked Julius Reed again.

This time, if the opponent didn’t answer, he would definitely strike and kill him!

“Do you recognize this sword?” Julius Reed did not directly answer his question but asked in return.

“Don’t recognize it.”

With a stern face and a slight snort, the Hillcrest Island disciple said, “You really think this broken thing of yours is some renowned sword in the world?”

“Now, you should recognize it.”

Squish!

Before he finished speaking, Julius Reed slashed with a sword!

The expression on the Hillcrest Island disciple’s face didn’t even have time to fade before his head fell.

Afterward, Julius Reed continued heading into the tomb, ignoring these people entirely.

“Master!”

Some disciples of Hillcrest Island were just about to rush forward, but Jeffrey Wolfe stopped them.

“Master, our senior brother has been killed, are we to just sit back and do nothing?” Many disciples were already furious and drew their weapons, ready to avenge their brother!

Utter humiliation!

“No rush.” Jeffrey Wolfe stroked his beard, chuckled coldly, “This kid is affected by Lucius’ poison, and will be useful for a while yet. The tomb is filled with dangers, not just a matter of passing through this door. If there’s a time when we need him, he can save us a lot of trouble.”

“Precisely! I’ve planted poisonous needles inside him. Fellow disciples, be patient. Trust me, he will die very miserably.”

Lucius laughed charmingly.

“You two stay behind and block other Martial Artists who want to enter the tomb. As for that old scoundrel Davion Hawthorne, let him in, you can’t defeat him.”

After saying this, Jeffrey Wolfe led the way inside.

Passing by the Hillcrest Island disciple’s corpse, he stepped over as if he hadn’t seen it.

Isn’t a dead person normal?

Hillcrest Island has three thousand disciples; they can afford to lose one.

Inside the tomb!

The eerie wind felt like knives, causing stinging pain on the face!

The sound of the wind wailed continuously, as if someone were crying, or perhaps someone were laughing hideously.

In the narrow tomb passage, there was only a small oil lamp every five meters, emitting a dim light.

The musty damp smell constantly reminded visitors of the dangers here.

Quiet!

Aside from the wind, there were no other sounds here.

No small animals either.

Even mice probably couldn’t survive in the tomb chamber.

The air is toxic.

But Julius Reed didn’t care.

He only felt slightly uncomfortable in the lungs.

Yet, if an ordinary person stayed here long, they would certainly get poisoned and die.

Passing through the long narrow passage, Julius Reed entered an exceedingly vast space.

Sunlight, from some unknown location, actually shone into this space.

The sound of flowing water!

In front of Julius Reed was a hollow mountain body.

In the center was a pool of water.

The entire terrain resembled a gourd.

He was currently in the hollow of the gourd.

Opposite Julius Reed, a waterfall-like stream flowed endlessly into the pond.

The water was clear.

But there were no fish.

One could see the rocky lakebed below.

The environment here isn’t suited for any life.

Julius Reed looked up and saw a patch of brightness.

But it was unclear from where this brightness originated.

Above, mist swirled, a hazy white expanse.

Opposite him were seven holes arranged in a circle around the center of the pond.

Within less than five minutes of Julius Reed’s arrival, people started emerging from the seven exits one after another.

Interestingly, it seemed each exit housed a separate force.

The divine beings of the West Sea and the demon paths of the East Sea also appeared in the tomb.

Separated by the pond, they hadn’t noticed him yet.

Julius Reed put away his Longsword, standing by the pond, observing each exit’s occupants.

He wasn’t afraid of the poisonous miasma.

The reason he hadn’t come earlier was his complete ignorance of the Azure Emperor’s tomb.

How to enter, its internal structure—these were blanks to him.

Entering together with experienced individuals like Jeffrey Wolfe could save a lot of trouble.

Shortly, the people from Hillcrest Island walked out behind him.

Everyone seemed to have an implicit understanding, and no one bothered anyone else.

Even though the Hillcrest Island disciple’s eyes were filled with hatred, he didn’t come over looking for trouble.

“Davion, according to our master’s records from back then, the water will dry up an hour after the miasma disappears, revealing the passage below.”

Jeffrey Wolfe walked to Davion Hawthorne’s side, smiling as he said, “You can see, there are so many people on the opposite side. Regardless of your impression of Hillcrest Island, we still need to cooperate.”

Davion said nothing, his eyes fixed on the water surface.

The conversation between the two was naturally heard clearly by Julius Reed.

The water will disappear?

Now that’s interesting.

Watch and wait.

It seems this tomb is full of complex pathways.

Boom!

Suddenly, the earth started to tremble!

As if the entire mountain were about to collapse!

“Look!”

Lucius, standing on the ground, pointed to the central water pool about five hundred meters in diameter, exclaiming, “The water is receding!”

No need for her to say, Jeffrey Wolfe had already noticed the change.

The pool’s water level gradually descended!

Half a minute later, only the stone-paved lakebed remained.

An opening ten meters in diameter suddenly appeared at the heart of the lake!
