Chapter 364 Beyond the Stone Gate: An Unknown Mystery

The powerful suction force that suddenly erupted from the stone gate was like an invisible, monstrous beast, frantically pulling at Huanmo and the others. The dust and gravel that were kicked up around them were sent flying towards the stone gate like meteors under this suction force, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

Huanmo felt as if his feet were nailed to the ground, yet he was being dragged along by an irresistible force, his body almost torn in two. "How can this suction be so strong!" Fear surged through him like a tidal wave. His mind raced, searching for a solution. "Don't panic, stay calm, especially in situations like this!" he repeatedly told himself.

Yi Chen strained with all his might, trying to resist the suction by embedding the broken spear into the ground, but the ground was as fragile as tofu under this immense force. The broken spear only slightly slowed his sliding before being uprooted. "Damn it!" Yi Chen roared angrily, his heart filled with resentment. "Have we escaped the black-faced dragon, only to be defeated before this stone gate?"

The woman in white clung tightly to a protruding rock beside her, her fingers white from the strain, and even her knuckles bleeding slightly. Her hair flew wildly in the gale, obscuring her face, which was filled with fear yet stubbornness. "I don't want to be sucked in like this, without knowing why!" Her eyes revealed a deep fear of the unknown, but the instinct for survival prevented her from giving up easily.

The mysterious figure closed his eyes tightly, concentrating all his energy, attempting to use his own strength to resist the suction of the stone door. His body trembled slightly, large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and his face grew increasingly pale. "The suction of this stone door is no ordinary force; there must be a much more powerful force controlling it." He knew the situation was critical, but for the moment, he couldn't find a way to break it.

Huanmo watched his companions struggle desperately, his heart filled with anxiety. Suddenly, he felt a warmth emanating from the divine artifact in his hand, and its light began to flicker. "Divine artifact, are you going to help us again?" A glimmer of hope surged in Huanmo's heart. He gripped the artifact tightly, trying to use its power to break free from the suction.

The divine artifact's light gradually intensified, forming a faint light barrier around Huanmo, temporarily resisting the suction force of the stone door. Taking advantage of this, Huanmo shouted, "Everyone, come closer to me! Let's use the power of the divine artifact to resist together!" Upon hearing this, Yichen, the woman in white, and the mysterious figure all moved towards Huanmo with difficulty.

After the four gathered together, the light from the divine artifact became even more dazzling, completely enveloping them. However, the suction force of the stone gate also continued to increase, and the light barrier began to tremble violently under this powerful force, with fine cracks appearing.

"This can't go on; the light barrier won't hold for long!" Huanmo frowned, his heart filled with anxiety. He struggled to maintain the light barrier while pondering how to break the deadlock. "Since we can't resist this suction force, let's go through the stone door and see what's inside!" Huanmo suddenly made a bold decision.

"Huanmo, are you crazy? Who knows what's behind the stone door!" Yichen exclaimed in surprise, his eyes wide.

Huanmo took a deep breath and said, "We have no other choice. The suction of this stone door is getting stronger and stronger, and we can't resist it at all. Rather than being exhausted here, we might as well go in and maybe there will be a glimmer of hope."

The woman in white and the mysterious figure exchanged a glance and nodded slightly. "At this point, there's no other way," the mysterious figure said.

Huanmo gripped the artifact tightly and said, "Everyone, get ready, we're going in!" After saying that, he removed the light barrier, and the four of them were instantly swallowed up by the suction force of the stone door and disappeared behind it.

After a dizzying spin, Huanmo and the others found themselves in a huge circular space. The walls of the space were inlaid with countless gems that emitted a ghostly glow, making the entire space eerie and sinister. The floor was covered with intricate patterns that intertwined to form a mysterious design.

In the very center of the space stood a massive stone platform, upon which rested an ancient book radiating golden light. A faint energy barrier surrounded the book, as if protecting it.

"Where is this place? And what is that ancient book?" the woman in white asked curiously, a hint of wariness in her eyes.

Huanmo shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but I can sense that the ancient book seems to contain powerful energy."

Yi Chen gripped the broken gun tightly and said, "No matter what, we should be careful first. There's an indescribable eeriness about this place."

Just as everyone cautiously approached the stone platform, a low, guttural laugh suddenly echoed through the space. The laughter reverberated in the empty room, sending chills down everyone's spines.

"Who is it? Show yourself!" Huanmo shouted, the divine weapon in his hand shining brightly. However, all that answered them was a sinister laugh.

As the laughter grew louder, the eerie light in the space began to flicker, and the patterns on the ground emitted a strange glow. Then, black figures slowly emerged from the walls. These figures resembled humans, but had no facial features, and exuded a chilling aura.

"It seems we're in trouble again," the mysterious figure said with a grave expression.

Huanmo stared at the suddenly appearing black figures, his heart filled with doubt and vigilance. "What exactly are these things? Why are they here?" he wondered to himself.
