You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 350 - 4. Beiyuan Mountain_3

Seventh Princess didn't say much and stepped inside.

Xiahong Yuanyu saw this and led the twenty or so cultivators behind him to follow the Seventh Princess.

Next were Lin Yue and a few others.

At last, Lou Kedi led a group of Forbidden Army and hurriedly entered the long passage at the end.

Silence reigned, with only the echo of footsteps.

The walls and stairs of the passage emitted a faint glow, yet it remained somewhat dim.

No one spoke.

The group descended thousands of feet deep underground along the long staircase and finally reached the end of the passage stairs—a platform leaning against a massive stone wall.

This platform was quite spacious, and on the stone wall, there was a circular door three Zhang tall, within which was a barrier rippling like the surface of water.

"This door is a barrier similar to 'Void Transfer,' leading to one of the seventy-two exits to Beiyuan Mountain," Lou Kedi said, "No one knows which exit this door leads to at this moment, but as long as you can pass through this door's barrier, it signifies that Beiyuan Mountain has allowed you to enter. Go ahead."

He first looked at the Seventh Princess and said, "Seventh Princess Your Highness, would you go first?"

"Okay."

The Seventh Princess did not hesitate and immediately walked towards the water-like barrier at the doorway. After her figure completely entered the barrier, she vanished from sight.

Seeing that the Seventh Princess had entered, the others were eager to try and prepared to follow.

Xiahong Yuanyu glanced at Lin Yue and the nine cultivators, but he walked up first, then looked back at the twenty-plus people and ordered, "Hurry and follow."

Then, he walked towards the water barrier, entered it, and disappeared.

Lin Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, faintly guessing Xiahong Yuanyu's intentions.

The twenty-plus cultivators brought by Xiahong Yuanyu also followed one after another towards the doorway's water barrier.

But—

The first person following Xiahong Yuanyu, upon touching the water-light barrier at the doorway, felt a force of repulsion and was bounced back, at which they couldn't help but be stunned.

"It seems Beiyuan Mountain didn't choose you," Lou Kedi said upon seeing this: "Next one."

Then the second, the third, the fourth...

All were bounced back, none able to pass through the water barrier.

It was not until the seventh person that another one managed to go through.

After the twenty-plus people had all tried, in the end, only four had entered.

Among the last batch of cultivators to enter, apart from Lin Yue, the remaining eight were somewhat nervous. According to the family records, at least five out of ten should have been able to enter; who would have thought it would be so difficult now?

Yet when these eight people all tried once, they shockingly found that only one person had managed to go in.

Before long, only Lin Yue had not yet tried.

Under everyone's watchful gaze, Lin Yue also walked straight towards the water barrier at the doorway, his hands holding a rather robust package.

The next moment, his figure also entered the barrier.

The cultivators who were bounced back were stunned.

He actually... actually went in?

Lou Kedi was also somewhat surprised; currently, it was hard for even one out of ten to enter, yet this seemingly ordinary young man managed to do so.

It seems he must be quite talented.

"Li Shiyu?" Lou Kedi silently remembered this name.

...

After Lin Yue passed through the water barrier, he felt a strange, irresistible force permeate around him, causing him to continually weaken.

Soon, he found his Divine Thought, Primordial Power, powerful body, and sensing of heaven and earth... all vanished without a trace. Even the Magic Treasure Short Sword he held in his hand couldn't be brought in.

On him aside from a set of mortal clothes and a package, only the Fine Iron Flying Knives hidden in his robe remained.

Indeed, within Beiyuan Mountain, no items beyond the mortal realm could be brought, not even Fine Iron. After all, it would be nearly impossible for a mortal to melt mortal iron.

Fine Iron weapons were the limit, and the clothes were merely Heavenly Silkworm Silk of mortal Martial Artists.

However, their usefulness was limited.

Even a mortal Martial Artist who mastered only the basics of Micro could break Fine Iron with his bare hands or tear apart Heavenly Silkworm Silk clothing.

It was barely better than nothing.

Although he had sealed his storage treasure and Lifebound Divine Weapon inside his body and brought them with him, he couldn't use them or take them out.

It was as if he had returned to his original mortal state.

Even the powerful Recovery Power of "Nine Deaths Immortal" was suppressed to almost non-existent, only a slight bit remaining.

He also didn't know if the Divine Skills of Secret Listening were still present.

Meanwhile, Lin Yue found himself in an extremely dim cave.

Ahead, there was a faint light, likely in the direction of the cave entrance.

Lin Yue touched his own cheek and found that the disguise of mortal features was still in place, which put his mind at ease.

He followed the light and initially, the cave was very narrow, barely allowing one person to pass. After walking more than ten Zhang, he finally saw the cave entrance.

Outside the entrance, the light of the setting sun was dimly visible, indicating that it was almost night.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yue suddenly noticed that there was a body lying on the ground at the cave entrance.

Looking closer in the light, it turned out to be the cultivator who had entered before him!

At that moment—

"Swish, swish, swish, swish!!"

He heard the sound of arrows cutting through the air and Lin Yue immediately noticed several shadows flying towards him from outside the cave!

If even one percent of his Cultivation remained, these arrows would be more laughable than toys, but in his current mortal body, if an arrow pierced him, he was undoubtedly doomed!

...

Outside the cave.

Under the bloody dusk light, four figures were hidden in a thick bush, each holding an Iron Embryo Bow, simultaneously bending their bows to shoot arrows at the cave!

Not far away, Xiahong Yuanyu stood behind a tree, shouting lowly, "Fire arrows and kill!"

He thought to himself, although influenced by the Seventh Princess to not capture people, the Seventeenth Prince must be able to enter, so regardless of whether any of the Seventeenth Princes were among those who entered, he wouldn't let any escape; killing them all was the plan.

After all, killing here only meant being expelled from Beiyuan Mountain, not truly assassinating a prince, what did he have to fear?

Here, everyone was mortal, and no amount of Martial Arts expertise could stop a flurry of arrows!
