Apotheosis

"This is weird. Since members of the top seven noble clans have come here, it is impossible that the Valley would be guarded by only two people from the Yu Clan. Where are the other people? Does the Dragon Valley have another passage?" Zen frowned and looked around. At the same time, he walked around the valley.

At last, Zen discovered many footprints on the ground of the valley. He raised his head and looked ahead. There was no passage in front. All Zen saw was three bamboos growing along the valley wall.

It was strange that these footprints led to the three bamboos.

Zen frowned and studied the three bamboos. The main root of each was as wide as the mouth of a bowl. Considering their size, these bamboos had been growing for many years. However, the bamboo in the middle was cut, and only half was left. When Zen observed the middle bamboo, he realized that it had been cut recently.

Zen thought for a while and then reached out to touch the broken bamboo.

A frown appeared on Zen's face. After touching the bamboo, he discovered that the broken bamboo was a virtual shadow.

"Magic array!"

Zen realized that a magic array had been placed here. On further thought, Zen figured that he could enter the array by cutting the bamboo.

The members of the Bamboo Leaf Sect had settled in the forest many years ago, and yet they had not discovered the array. Perhaps the entrance remained a secret as nobody had tried to cut the bamboo in the middle.

It became obvious to Zen that perhaps members of the top seven noble clans had cut the bamboo, started the magic array, and opened the entrance.

Zen prepared to enter the array. However, a thought stopped him. After a little hesitation, Zen pulled out a mask from

ghtened Zen as he could see that he would die if hit by the lightning. In fact, his whole body would be consumed by the lightning, and there would be nothing left to bury!

Zen gulped at the thought. Till now, he hadn't come across a person who could overwhelm him to this extent.

Besides, the pink enchantment wasn't alive. Despite the fact that it spread over a great distance, the enchantment still maintained a lot of power. Zen wondered if a legendary celestial being had made the enchanted barrier.

Zen wanted to try his demonic life energy at the beginning, but now he decided against the thought. It appeared that the enchantment wouldn't attack people. And so he chose not to provoke it. After all, if the lightning did strike him, Zen would suffer a painful death.

As Zen prepared to leave the edge of the enchantment, a creature appeared from outside the enchantment.

It was a tiger. A white tiger!

Had it been an ordinary tiger, Zen wouldn't be afraid. Not even if there had been thousands of them. But this white tiger was different.

This tiger was hundreds of feet tall. Standing before it, Zen felt as tiny as an ant.
