The entrance to the ruins was a patch of foliage.
Or rather, it was the door that was hidden under this patch of foliage.
This was a door that wasn’t well hidden at all, it could have even been considered out in the open with the way that it was placed under this patch of foliage.
But this was the entrance of the ruins.
They could feel the spiritual energy that was coming from the door, so there was no doubt that this was it.
It was just that this seemed like it was too out of place and so obvious that it was a trap that Lin Fan couldn’t believe that this was it…
So he took out the map and carefully looked it over. He compared it to the map of the surrounding area that the elders had drawn for him and made sure that they were indeed in the right place.
No matter how he looked at it, this was it…
There was nothing else here that could be it.
So he had no choice but to accept that this door was what they were looking for.
With a sigh, Lin Fan said, “Did you find a way to open it?”
Senior Brother Ying shook his head and said, “We’ve already tried all kinds of things, but we haven’t figured out a way to open it yet.”
Lin Fan gave a nod as if he had already expected this.
If this place was that easy to open, it would have already been opened and ransacked.
One could tell from the spiritual energy that came from this place that it was a very special place. So if anyone were to find it, they definitely would have tried to open it.
Since they couldn’t open it, Lin Fan walked forward to stand in front of this door.
With a wave of his hand, there was a jade pendant that appeared in his hand.
This was the jade pendant that had come with the map.
However, he had no idea what to do with this jade pendant since he didn’t know how this jade pendant would open this door.
But the system had told him that he needed this jade pendant to open up these ruins, so he believed the system since it had never led him wrong.
So he waited to see what would happen once he brought the jade pendant out.
There wasn’t anything that happened at first, but then…there was a reaction that came from the jade pendant.
That jade pendant suddenly floated out of Lin Fan’s hand and floated there in space in front of the door on the ground.
It was as if there was some kind of resonance between the two.
At the same time, there was this strange spiritual energy that was being released by the two of them. This was an energy that none of them recognized, but they could tell was powerful.
This was definitely not a normal aura…
After this jade pendant floated there in the air for a while, it suddenly flew down to the ground.
It landed on the door and there was a glow that came from the jade pendant to the door.
This glow spread all over the door until it was completely wrapped up in this glow from the pendant.
As this door was covered in this glow, it started to creak.
It was as if there was something about it that was changing, but they couldn’t tell just what it was.
All they could tell was that it was releasing a terrifying aura now.
This was an aura that was far beyond anything that they had felt before.
Even for the elders that once belonged to the Love Sect when it was at its peak, this was an aura that was even stronger than any of the elders that they had seen before. It was even stronger than the sect master who was in the Soul Formation Realm.
Just how strong was the person who had left behind these ruins?
Lin Fan could also tell the same thing since he had felt the aura of a Soul Formation Realm Cultivator before in the form of Elder Jian.
So he was wondering…how strong was the enemy that Feng Yu wanted him to take care of?
Would he even be able to do anything to them?
Perhaps in a thousand years when he became stronger, but how strong would that person be at that time?
Lin Fan just gave a sigh before giving up thinking about this.
For this matter, he would just handle it however it came. As long as he was able to keep himself alive, there might be a day that he would be able to take revenge for Feng Yu.
But of course, he would never risk his own life for this kind of revenge.
That would just be foolish.
After this aura appeared around the door for a while, it slowly started to open to reveal…
Darkness.
There was only darkness behind the door.
What was revealed was an abyss that they couldn’t see the end of.
There was only darkness as far as they could see and it didn’t seem like there was a bottom to this pit.
All of them just stood over the pit and stared down into it, as if they were trying to find anything about this pit that would give them any hope.
But in the end, Senior Brother Ying couldn’t help asking Lin Fan, “Sect master, are you sure that this is it? This just seems like a trap.”
Lin Fan didn’t answer right away as he stared down into the abyss.
But he was actually talking to the system.
“Are you sure that this is it?” Lin Fan said in his mind, as he waited for the system to respond.
The system said in its mechanical voice, “This is indeed the ruins indicated on the map.”
“Then why is it pitch black like this?”
The system just calmly replied, “The host can jump in and see.”
Lin Fan gave a secret bitter smile when he heard this.
“Are you sure?” Lin Fan asked once more.
The system didn’t bother answering this, which was more than enough of an answer for Lin Fan.
With a sigh, he walked up in front of the hole and then…he suddenly jumped in.
The elders were too shocked to react to this in time and they didn’t have time to catch him as he was already falling down into the hole.
The elders could only watch as Lin Fan suddenly fell into the hole in front of them, disappearing from their sights.
As Lin Fan fell, he couldn’t help feeling a bit of doubt because there didn’t seem to be anything changing. The only thing that he could see was the elders above him getting further and further away as he kept falling.
Then all of a sudden, there was a bright flash of white light before the scenery in front of him changed.
He went from the dark abyss to a forest.
He found that he was standing right in the middle of a forest that he didn’t recognize at all.
As he landed in this forest, Lin Fan quickly raised his guard after being surprised and looked carefully around him. He made sure that there wasn’t anything dangerous around here before finally letting down his guard.
Instead, he turned his attention to the gate behind him.
This was a glowing gate that seemed to be made of stone with some kind of portal in the center.
He didn’t know where this gate would lead him, but he could feel a powerful spiritual energy coming from it.
This definitely wasn’t a normal thing.
After standing there and looking over the gate for a bit, Lin Fan took a step forward and walked towards the gate.
Standing there in front of the gate, he wasn’t able to find a single thing off about it.
So the only thing for him to do was…to step into the gate.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Fan walked into the portal of the gate.
When he did, there was a bright flash of white light that forced him to close his eyes before darkness appeared around him again.
He felt as if his body was being thrown forward after the bright white light faded.
At the same time, he could see that something was there in front of him that was different from the rest of the darkness around him.
It was…Senior Brother Ying and the rest of the elders that were looking down at him.
Lin Fan felt himself being thrown out of the same door that he had entered through and he flew into the air a bit before landing on the ground in front of Senior Brother Ying and the rest of the elders.
After he landed, he just looked around himself in a daze.
Senior Brother Ying and the other elders also stared at Lin Fan in a daze as they didn’t know what had just happened.
After a long moment of silence, Lin Fan said, “I see, so that’s what it is.”
Senior Brother Ying and the elders revealed confused looks when they heard this.
They all looked at Lin Fan as if they were waiting for him to explain, but all he did was walk back over to the door and look down at the abyss.
After a long time, Senior Brother Ying couldn’t hold back his curiosity anymore and asked, “Sect master, what is this?”
Lin Fan said with a smile, “It’s a Minor World.”
