Top-class Bodyguard

"Not dead?" Long Yue was shocked, with disbelief on her face, "How is that possible?"

Ren Feng's expression was extremely serious, "At first I thought it was impossible, because when we initially entered this relic, the information hinted that it was a tomb, and if it was a tomb, then one would certainly be dead. But after the previous courtyard situation, I had to doubt that the Primordial Emperor wasn't dead."

"When I broke through the array to enter, it was merely a knock, the door opened automatically, and then there was the wine order on the long table before; thinking about it carefully, it simply sends chills down the spine."

"But those are just phantoms and illusions, Mu Han Elder said, those might either be remnants of cultivation techniques or manifestations of one's spiritual sense," Long Yue said.

"That's correct, but the Primordial Emperor isn't one of them." Ren Feng looked at Long Yue earnestly, "This tomb is the Primordial Emperor's tomb, at that time I and a few others were forcibly placed on chairs, others failed the wine order and died, yet I received a reward, if it were a phantom, how could such a phenomenon occur?"

"The phantoms sitting at the long table, I'm sure they're unreal, but when I saw the Primordial Emperor, the sensation was too real, especially when I recited that poem, he even analyzed it, which meant he was definitely alive. If it were a phantom or unreal existence, it couldn't possibly hear what I said!"

Ren Feng spoke increasingly affirmatively, eyes gleaming: "And when we came out of that room, a terrifying energy swept over us from the sky, grabbed us all into mid-air, then flung us to various locations on this island, proving a point, as this phenomenon was akin to the previous automatic door opening."

Long Yue felt a little dizzy, "Ren Feng, I'm unclear about several things, if he is alive, why would he do this?"

"I don't know either." Ren Feng said, "The situation now is more like a game, this island became a chessboard, we're his pieces, manipulated by him, but his ultimate purpose, we cannot guess."

Long Yue was silent for a moment: "Is the Primordial Emperor really still alive?"

"Even if not alive, he exists in some other form, only then can we explain the phenomena we encountered earlier, otherwise it's simply too eerie."

Ren Feng shook his head, recalling his previous confrontation with the Primordial Emperor on the third level, merely a glance, he felt as if his soul wasn't within his body, as if it all flew out.

This is simply, incredible.

At least Ren Feng could affirm one thing, the Primordial Emperor's strength had reached an unfathomable, extremely bizarre level, even if their strength wasn't suppressed, a group of experts including him couldn't rival the Primordial Emperor!

"Stop overthinking," Ren Feng comforted, "At least the Primordial Emperor doesn't have the intent to kill, otherwise, when we just entered, he could have killed us all immediately, no need for such hassle, so he's certainly up to something."

Long Yue nodded, she glanced around, worry on her face: "I wonder where Mu Han Elder and the others are, will there be danger."

"They should not be, at least their strength can ensure self-preservation."

"What do we do now? Do we need to find them?"

Ren Feng took an item out of his storage pouch: "I have a way."

That item unfolded, spread on the ground, revealing a complete map. All the scenes seemed to be projected into mid-air, many things vividly lifelike, as if modern 3D technology, even more realistic than today's 3D!

Long Yue was also a bit surprised looking at this magical artifact, this magical artifact could be called a living map without exaggeration, even the various landscapes were marked on it.

"This is the map I obtained on the third level, it's the map of this island, look, we first appeared here."

Ren Feng pointed to a beach in the far west of the island, "Then forward, encountering beasts then retreating, passing through bamboo groves, turning to this courtyard, then encountering strange energy in the courtyard, separating everyone. After my confirmation, the location we're in should be here."

Ren Feng pointed again to a forest area in the southeast of the map, that forest was extremely dark, seemingly shrouded in black night, and all the trees seemed twisted, strange-shaped, merely looking at it sends chills down the spine.

Long Yue compared the surrounding scenery, indeed, the trees matched those of the forest on the map.

"According to this map, our ultimate goal is the previous city, we must cross a path passing through these places."

Ren Feng's finger moved across the map from the forest to the winding path, then to the gorge, through a series of terrains, to a place resembling a square.

"This is an unavoidable place, to reach the city in the far north, we must pass through this square, because all roads on both sides of the square are impassable, these are all beast territories or extremely dangerous terrains, even with the strength of the Divine Realm, it's too dangerous to pass, so once we reach here, we can find Mu Han Elder and Sima Nan."

Long Yue glanced at the map, "What if they didn't fall on this side of the island?"

"Impossible, if they fell on the other side, they might find that city, that's unfair to others, the Primordial Emperor as the chess player wouldn't allow such unfair circumstances."

Ren Feng's gaze was steady: "I think this is more like a trial, since it's a trial, fairness is an extremely important factor."

Long Yue looked at the map, "After reaching the square, we can go straight, then through another place, we can reach that city."

"That's right." Ren Feng nodded, looking into the distance, "The Primordial Emperor is inside that city, waiting for us, no matter what it is, once we reach there, everything will naturally be resolved."

"Let's go then."

Ren Feng put away the map, took out many magical artifacts from his storage pouch, directly handed them to Long Yue.

"These things I acquired on the second and third levels, this journey is certainly full of dangers, the Primordial Emperor separated each of us, it won't be simple to pass through easily."
