Chapter 1172 Enter The Passageway

"It appears that they are looking for the entrance to the forbidden area..." Kayla remarked at once upon noticing the shadows.

"So, should we wait until they have entered? But they might send someone to block the entrance. If that happens, I'm sure that it will give us a hard time," Rocky said after thinking for a while.

"There's no need for us to wait. I know another way to enter the forbidden area. It can be a bit riskier, but it is much easier than entering from the entrance, which initially requires us to break the seal. Come with me." After finishing her words, Kayla gestured to Rocky and the others to follow her.

Without thinking twice, Rocky and his group immediately followed Kayla to the southeast side of the ruins of the Butterfly Divine Clan. After walking for a while, they arrived at a place where countless tombs lay on the ground. However, most of these tombs had already been destroyed, making the place very desolate and eerie.

"Back then, the alliance of the spiritual race clans surrounded the Butterfly Divine Clan, causing the latter to suffer a crushing defeat. This war led to the deaths of the majority of my clansmen, and only a few of them escaped," Kayla sighed as she explored the cemetery with her eyes.

"Why would the alliance of the spiritual race clan attack your clan? Perhaps it's not just because your clan was more powerful than them, right?" Rocky couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. At that moment, he wanted to learn the real reason why the Butterfly Divine Clan was annihilated.

"You're right about that. One of the reasons for the destruction of my clan was due to its power. At that time, it was very powerful. In fact, it had many members that far surpassed the other clans', making it a threat to others. Moreover, the other clans formed an alliance to exterminate my clan primarily because they were afraid of our leader, Aaron Bai. Sure, he brought prestige and power to the clan. Yet, the other clans all wanted to stand against him because he had a forbidden item in his hand!" Kayla expounded.

"What? A forbidden item? What was it?" Rocky asked with an utmost interest.

Soon after, all the women shot Kayla a glance, as they anticipated her answer.

"Unfortunately, I don't know what it is, either. The only thing I know about this history is that more than five hundred years ago, Aaron had entered an ancient mysterious place with each of the other clans' leaders. At the end of

when he heard Cherry's motive.

As they talked, Rocky and the women had passed numerous tombstones when finally, they had arrived at a broken stone tablet deep in the cemetery.

Kayla waved her hand, and a strong spiritual power moved the stone tablet away. A rumbling sound was heard, and a deep passage had finally appeared under the stone tablet.

"This is the other passage to the forbidden area, which will lead you directly to its depths. However, I can only escort you up to this point. What happens next will all depend on you. Take extra precaution. This is a dangerous place due to several dead souls of the dead members of the Butterfly Divine Clan that linger in the area. Prevent from being possessed at all costs because it will surely be a disaster. In addition, many traps lie around the area, so you must be very careful..." Kayla reminded them.

After hearing her words of precaution, Rocky and others exchanged looks. Soon after, Rocky led the way as he entered the passageway first. Not long after, their shadows receded and vanished.

Seeing that the group had entered the passageway, Kayla could not help but get worried and muttered to herself, "I hope they come back safely!"

Meanwhile, as soon as the group entered the passageway, the light around them instantly dimmed, and coldness started to creep their bodies.

The passageway was wide and made up of flat stones. Despite Rocky and the women standing side by side, there was still some space.

"Watch where you are going!" Rocky warned the women as he looked at the never-ending passageway. The women nodded immediately after hearing his reminder.
