Chapter 3859

Many people in the Sagely Mountain City were cashing in on their rewards.

Zi Chen had successfully ascended the third floor. It had been a series of twists and turns. Fortunately, although there was much suspense, the outcome did not change.

Those who believed in Zi Chen had all gained a lot. They were all grinning from ear to ear.

Among them, the She Shan brothers had gained the most.

After all, the two of them had always believed in Zi Chen. Moreover, they had bet heavily on Zi Chen every time.

After cashing in on their rewards, the She Shan brother smiled and said, "Continue to bet that Lord Zi Chen will enter the fourth floor."

For a moment, many people looked at the She Shan brother.

After all, after the third floor was the final floor. There were very few people who could reach this floor. Previously, many people had stopped while they were ahead.

The She Shan brother did not care about the gazes around him. He continued, "Bet that Lord Zi Chen will ascend to the next floor."

The being in charge of placing the bet took a deep look at She Shan's younger brother before placing the bet for him.

However, at this moment, the person's expression suddenly changed. He said, "Zi Chen can no longer be placed."

"What? Can no longer be placed?"

The She Shan brother was stunned. He said, "Did you make a mistake?

What about the others?

Can they still place their bets? "

Suddenly, a burst of exclamations came from outside the gambling den. It seemed that everyone had seen something extremely shocking.

The She Shan brothers vaguely heard Zi Chen's name. They immediately ran out of the gambling den.

When they arrived outside the gambling den, they looked up at the sky. After seeing the scene on the screen, their expressions changed.

On the third floor, wherever Zi Chen passed, those powerful Holy Symbol Beasts would dodge in advance as if they could predict the future.

A very safe path was opened for Zi Chen.

The city was in an uproar.

The She Shan brothers finally understood why Zi Chen's bets were closed.

All the Holy Symbol Beasts deliberately avoided him. Zi Chen would have no problem reaching the fourth floor. How could they place their bets?

Were they supposed to bet that he would give up?

This situation was similar to Zi Chen obtaining the recognition of the Four Mountains. This was the first time something like this had happened, and it was also unprecedented.

The crowd was in an uproar.

No one understood what was going on.

In fact, even Zi Chen himself did not understand why there was no danger along the way. This made him feel a little uneasy.

Because there was no danger, it meant that the opportunity had passed by.

"What's going on?"

On the Saint Talisman Mountain, the hearts of the elders were filled with doubt.

This was because this situation was too unusual.

Li An went to Mirror Spirit again to ask about this.

Unexpectedly, the mirror spirit shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.

Li An obviously didn't believe it, but he couldn't question the mirror spirit, so he could only go back.

In fact, he had really wronged Mirror Spirit this time. He really didn't know about the current situation.

Although he could see everything, it did not mean that he could understand it. Furthermore, the Sacred Mountain was also an independent existence with its own thoughts and soul, even though it could not communicate with others normally.

Along the way, Zi Chen saw mountains, rivers, and jagged rocks, but he didn't see any danger.

This made him more and more vigilant as he went deeper. After all, it had been peaceful for too long. Perhaps he would encounter a terrifying storm as soon as he appeared.

However, this time, Zi Chen was no longer worried that the danger would come from the Descenders. Instead, he was worried about the Sacred Mountain itself.

He walked for four hours. During this time, he didn't see a single Saint Talisman Beast, so naturally, he didn't encounter any danger.

The more he walked, the less confident Zi Chen felt. He began to doubt himself. Did he go in the wrong direction?

For a moment, he even wondered if he should go back the way he came.

Zi Chen couldn't see the entire world, but the people outside could. They also saw Zi Chen's hesitation and vigilance. They knew that this was a completely unnecessary expression and that they could just keep moving forward.

However, Zi Chen didn't know that.

At the same time, in the Sacred Mountain Gambling House, someone suggested that Zi Chen continue to bet. The reason was that Zi Chen was too vigilant and might really lose his qualifications because of his paranoia.

This senseless and even ignorant suggestion naturally wouldn't be accepted.

If the gambling house really opened like this, it was likely that the Holy Mountain Gambling House would lose everything in just one round.

Zi Chen was indeed vigilant, but that was only a short delay. By the time he reacted, he would definitely be on the fourth floor.

Not only was this suggestion rejected, but the person who proposed it also received a torrent of curses.

After several hours, Zi Chen still didn't encounter any danger. His expression couldn't help but change. He cried out involuntarily, "It's an illusion formation. It's definitely an illusion formation!"

When they heard such a confident tone, laughter rang out from the city. Since they had a complete view of the situation, they looked at Zi Chen as if they were looking at a fool.

A day passed just like that. During this day, Zi Chen was constantly suspicious and displayed his cautious nature to the fullest. However, after seeing that there was no danger, he decided to not think about it and just walk around.

Another day later, Zi Chen arrived at a huge canyon. There were many canyons here, and they gave him a faint feeling of unease.

If he had a choice, he would definitely avoid this canyon.

But at that moment, he saw a ray of light.

That light was like a crack, or perhaps a passage.

It seemed to be a passage to the next floor.

Zi Chen was very surprised that he could find this place so smoothly, but his mood also became heavy. After all, he had gained nothing on this floor, and he hadn't even encountered any danger.

Then what was waiting for him in front of this place?

It was impossible to stop moving forward. Zi Chen took a deep breath, then raised his head to look at the sides of the canyon and walked forward.

One step, two steps, three steps. He didn't walk quickly, but his steps were steady and his mind was tense. He was on guard against every corner of his surroundings.

There were still no abnormalities in his surroundings until Zi Chen had walked nearly half of the distance.

With Zi Chen's current cultivation realm, he would need roughly three breaths to cross the next half of the distance.

If he displayed his maximum speed, two breaths would be enough.

Zi Chen took a deep breath and mobilized his soul power.

But immediately after, the circulation of soul power stopped, and Zi Chen exhaled again.

Holy Rune Beasts appeared in the upper part of the canyon. They were huge, as if mountains had appeared out of thin air.

Shadows fell from above, and the breathing of those Holy Rune Beasts formed waves of wind that swept down from above and swept through the canyon.

The Holy Rune Beasts that couldn't be seen previously appeared one by one, and there were quite a number of them.

Zi Chen stopped and stood there motionlessly, like a person who was pretending to be dead.

Those Holy Rune Beasts didn't move either, and they just looked down at Zi Chen.

There were many Holy Rune Beasts, and they were very powerful, but Zi Chen didn't sense any killing intent from them.

This made him a little hesitant.

Both sides were in a stalemate for dozens of breaths, during which Zi Chen's entire body was drenched in cold sweat.

Those beasts still didn't move.

Zi Chen took a deep breath and walked forward.

This required a lot of courage.

Those Holy Rune Beasts above were still quietly looking at Zi Chen, and their gazes followed Zi Chen's movements, but they still didn't attack.

Zi Chen walked very slowly, even slower than before. Step by step, he walked to the entrance of the fourth level with great pressure.

The entire Sagely Mountain City was in an uproar again. It was obvious that Zi Chen was going to pass through the third level without any danger and enter the final level.

Isn't this too smooth?
