"Wuwu... Wuwu..."
The sound coming from the distant darkness is so haunting, like the crying of a ghostly woman, or the howling of cold wind, sending chills down one's spine.
However, no matter the terrifying sound or immense resistance, Basil Jaak pressed forward, rushing straight to the end of the corridor.
"Keep going, and you'll die."
Suddenly, a chilly voice emerged from the darkness ahead, echoed continuously along the underground palace corridor, piercing deeply and causing one's heart to tremble inexplicably.
Listening closely to the echo, it sounded like a woman's voice, yet strangely sharp like a man's voice, both peculiar and spine-chilling.
Buzz!
But as the echo faded, Basil Jaak felt a powerful force, like an invisible True Qi barrier, immediately appearing before him, blocking his path.
This force carried an extreme yin and chill; though strong, it posed no threat in front of Basil Jaak.
