Before long, he arrived in front of a pitch-black, thick door, flanked by two stone statues standing three zhang tall. The statues bore a striking resemblance to Zhao Xuanjing, emanating an incredibly dangerous aura.
Standing before them, Zhao Sheng suddenly felt goosebumps. A sense of fear overcame him, as if he would not escape death should the statues come to life.
Fortunately, the only action the statues took was to emit two beams of yellow light from their eyes, scanning over Zhao Sheng as though verifying his bloodline and identity.
Boom!
After two breaths, the yellow light faded, and the pitch-black doors rumbled open, revealing a spacious and bright stone room behind them.
As Zhao Sheng stepped inside, the door closed behind him with a thunderous sound...
...
One day later
With a water-blue Jade Scroll in hand, Zhao Sheng sat excitedly on a stone platform.
