The entrance was an old and broken stone door.

Spider webs and piles of dust were everywhere, but it was easy to spot traces of people that have been through the place, and once in awhile, it was still possible to spot a few pieces of rubbish discarded by adventurers. A few pathways that were hidden in the distance, appeared before Tang Tian and Bing. Tang Tian noticed that the pathways were all constructed with similar red rocks as the outside.

Bing’s face was solemn and heavy: “Follow me, but be careful.”

“Uncle Bing, you’ve been here before?” Tang Tian asked in a small voice. Although the inside was gloomy, he was not afraid at all.

Bing floated forward and said: “I’ve been here before. This used to be a military encampment of the army. Inside, there is a military weapons warehouse, so there are many mechanisms here.”

“Mechanisms?” Tang Tian’s eyes opened wide and looked around.

Yaya on his shoulders learnt Tang Tian’s face, puffing up its cheeks to force its small eyes to open wider, and looked around. It was unsure where Tang Tian kept his spirit nuclei, while in its hands was its bow and arrows.

“En?” Bing suddenly had a feeling, and snorted: “There are people behind us.”

“There are people?” Tang Tian’s eyes immediately showed vigilance.

The cold aura around Bing’s body rose up a few notches. He did not enter the pathways, and, without saying a word, went to the wall by the side, and seemingly pressed onto something. Suddenly, ka, ka, ka, the entire wall actually lifted up, revealing a bronze pathway.

Tang Tian swallowed his saliva. An entire pathway made of bronze, after so many years, did not have even a bit of rust. Pieces of delicate carvings on the bronze wall filled the entire passageway. Simple and unadorned bronze decorative designs, covered in dust due to the passage of time, slowly opened up in front of Tang Tian’s eyes. Small cups on the walls all started to light up, wriggling into the depth of the pathway.

“It is still working, it did not die off.”

Tang Tian could hear, although Uncle Bing was doing his utmost to maintain his calm tone of speech, the intonation change actually exposed his mood. It was not the way he thought it would come off as, calm.

Tang Tian walked into the bronze pathway, and the rock wall once again slowly dropped down, fitting tightly. What led Tang Tian to feel odd, was that the air in the pathway was extremely refreshing, and it was not muddy, like he thought it would be.

“Do not step on the floor.” Bing reminded Tang Tian.

“Do not step on the floor?” Tang Tian was stumped: “Then how do i walk?”

Yaya’s eyes lit up. With its small legs, it shot out like a bullet, rushing towards the walls. Pa, pa, pa, Tang Tian only saw a bullet, shooting from the left wall to the right wall and to the left again while moving forward, progressing very quickly.

“It seems that Yaya is smarter than you.” Bing dropped these words and continued floating in front.

Tang Tian’s eyes twitched, and without saying a word, he activated his light body arts, continuously using them to move forward. It was good that his light body arts were strong, and to him, it was too easy.

The pathway was much deeper than what Tang Tian thought, and he could feel that it was constantly extending downwards.

Tang Tian’s mind became more and more surprised. This bronze pathway was already more than 10 kilometres, and it was still going downwards. Such a surprising engineering measurement, how financially stable they were to build this!

“Careful, if the front did not lose its effectiveness, we will require identity authentication.” Bing’s words were heavy.

“What authentication?” Tang Tian asked.

“Emblem!” Bing said.

“Do we have it?” Tang Tian asked again.

“No.” Bing straightforwardly replied.

Tang Tian stood there in a daze: “Then what do we do?”

“Rush over.” Bing said.

“Rush… rush over?” Tang Tian thought he heard wrongly.

“That’s right!” Bing suddenly appeared beside Yaya, grabbing him, and appeared behind Tang Tian, one hand on his shoulders and said: “Godlike young man, we are depending on you!”

Tang Tian wanted to scold him, but red rays of light suddenly blossomed in front of his eyes.

“Wa, wa, wa!” Tang Tian did not care about anything else and dodged to the side.

A bronze arrow swept past his body, ‘Duo’, it was stabbed deeply into the wall, the bronze arrow’s feathers trembled with a hum. Seeing that, Tang Tian’s heart trembled, his face turning slightly pale. If he was stabbed by it, most likely, he would be stabbed through!

“Don’t be stunned! Keep rushing forward!” Bing urged him.

“You asshole!” Tang Tian cursed in anger, his leg suddenly releasing power, pouncing to the opposite wall, another bronze arrow shot by!

“Do not step on the floor!” Bing hid behind Tang Tian’s back, and loudly reminded.

Xiu, xiu, xiu!

Broken sounds, that can make a person’s hair stand, sounded out from deep within the pathway.

Tang Tian’s pupils withdrew. A few little bright dots appeared in his vision as he channeled power into his legs. Like an arrow leaving the bow, he pounced to the opposite wall.

Duo Duo Duo!

Tang Tian could not be bothered to scold anyone anymore as the rain of arrows arrived, twelve bronze arrows nearly blocked off his dodging space.

The intense fear provoked every muscle on his body, as he gathered his unprecedented attention. He neared the wall and suddenly extended out his hand, five fingers forming the shape of hooks, pop, heavily sticking them into the bronze wall. The heavy inertia caused his entire body to smash against the bronze wall, this power transmitted to his fingers, causing his fingertips to feel acute pain. Yet he did not care about any of that, and used his other hand five fingers which were also curved to act like hooks, pop, he dug them into the bronze wall as well.

His arms suddenly released power, and like a lizard on the wall, Tang Tian quickly moved forward along the bronze wall.

Duo, duo, duo!

Many bronze arrows swept past his body, bringing along a bite cold air that caused Tang Tian’s hair to stand.

“Wonderfully done!” Bing was slightly excited: “That’s the way, rookie! Continue rushing forward!”

Rookie…

Tang Tian’s eyes twitched, but he resisted the urge to throw Bing down, and continued to madly move forward. His entire body was stuck close to the wall, and could only rely on his fingertips and arm power. Tang Tian’s tyrannical physical strength, was showing its true potential.

Xiu, xiu, xiu!

The arrows came like rain, coming forth with terrifying power, unceasingly shooting out from the depths of the pathway.

Tang Tian’s complexion changed, he could not exhale properly, his ten fingers dug into the walls, at the same time his both legs using strength, he was like a frog, shooting outwards.

“Extremely good! Your entire body’s strength is extremely harmonized, filled with beautiful explosive power! Rookie, excellent! Do not stop, rush rush rush!”

Bing, who was behind him, was very excited. The surrounding familiar sights led him to return to his era. He brought along one after another young and pure youth, and constantly completed their harsh training. At that time, he was like how he was currently: at the side roaring at them, giving them encouragement.

All that was left of the army was him alone.

He was not considered dead nor alive.

But from the beginning, he was at a loss on why he was the only one left…

In the army, his power was not very strong, and there were countless people much stronger than him. His mechanical engineering skills were completely off the top in the army. His strategic wisdom was also not of top tier.

Why did he become a spirit? Why was it him? Why!

He had asked himself that same question countless times, but he could not think it through, and could not understand. The army was annihilated, so what was the use of leaving an instructor like him? If the Heavens really did have karma, then it ought to be a regiment commander or that sort of important person that survived….

But it was not like that, and only he was left alive….

An angry whistling sound shout out from the side of his ear, gradually pulling him back out from his thoughts.

He could not deny it, Tang Tian was a good soldier!

Although Tang Tian’s talent was not worth much, Bing said Tang Tian’s balanced five elemental affinity was not a bad thing, and that Tang Tian’s energy accessibility was not a problem. But he left out half of what he wanted to say. Everything he said that was no problem, was merely that they have no problem, excluding True Power. He had seen many who were very naturally intimate with True Power, and that was talent innate in their bones and roots. The present individual’s roots and bones were not important in the eyes of Bing, as when he was training the recruits, there was no lack of talents who were extremely connected with the five elemental affinities. All these people could train True Power much faster than other people, their efficiency was much higher, and improved at an astonishing rate!

But in Bing’s eyes, talent or innate in bones and roots, was just that. Talent to genius youths is more important. To a soldier, bravery, willpower and tenacity were the most important. In these aspects, Tang Tian, who was one of the many recruits under his wing, was definitely outstanding.

Tang Tian was not smart, but his calm attitude during battles was like a natural instinct equivalent to a wild beast, and that made Bing even more surprised. He had just broken into the fourth level of True Power, but was able to remain calm for such a long journey despite the raining arrows, if the army was still alive, it would have attracted a big hoorah.

This mechanism, Tang Tian was not the first to charge into it.

The majority of the Southern Cross Army soldiers had swift and fierce temperaments, loved challenges, and would frequently take off their emblems and challenge the mechanism. Many people would do it for fun, but those who could complete clear it were all old soldiers, and never had a recruit ever passed through.

Suddenly, Bing was interested in whether Tang Tian could clear everything completely.

Tang Tian was completely unaware of what Bing was currently thinking. He was fully absorbed and concentrated, his intuition and attention purely to the front.

The lizard method of advancing soon came to trouble, as the mechanism seemed to be able to feel his method of progress, and the bronze arrows started to become even more menacing. Tang Tian could immediately feel the pressure, as consecutive bronze arrows dangerously swept across his body, and the closest one swept across his forehead, the biting cold chill it brought along left a thin wound line on his forehead.

Tang Tian kept perspiring with cold sweat, it was his first time getting caught in this kind of predicament.

The space in the pathway to dodge became more limited and more limited, but the number of bronze arrows was increasing more and more. Just like that, it could seal up the space, and cause his dodging space to become even smaller.

What can he do?

Sweat flowed down to Tang Tian’s chin. He was oblivious to the fact that the method he was using took a huge toll on his physical strength. His breathing became more coarse and irregular, but his expression did not cower a bit, and he faced forward, looking straight, his brain thinking very quickly.

If there is no more space to dodge… what do I do?

Tang Tian’s eyes flashed with a thread of severe fierceness.

If there was no more space to dodge, then create more space!

Tang Tian used his astonishing speed to move forward across the wall, dodging the angry whistling arrows, the cold bronze wall led his heart to feel very cool-headed. Seven arrows locked the space in front of him, Tang Tian did not hesitate and shot out of the wall.

Three bronze arrows whistling in, in the shape of ‘品’, shooting out together.

Tang Tian who was in the air suddenly crouched in and bent and held his knees, as the three arrows immediately failed and briefly brushed past him.

However at that moment he had lost his momentum, him in the air, suddenly arrived very close to an angry arrow.

Seeing that he was about to be penetrated through, Tang Tian suddenly shook.
