The atmosphere around the ancient gate became deathly still.
On one side stood Situ and Goro.
On the other stood the experts of the Darkness Clan.
The enormous stone doors behind them continued opening slowly.
Ancient crimson light flowed from the hidden realm like a river.
The energy contained within was so dense that even breathing it caused one's cultivation to stir.
Yet nobody paid attention to the hidden realm.
At this moment, everyone's focus was on each other.
The silver-eyed youth from the Darkness Clan smiled coldly.
His gaze remained fixed on Situ.
"We discovered traces of this hidden realm centuries ago."
"The clan sent countless teams."
"We lost many experts."
"We searched every corner of the Vermillion Flame Realm."
His smile widened.
"Who would have thought a human would help us open it?"
Situ listened quietly.
Then he nodded.
"I understand."
The silver-eyed youth seemed pleased.
"Good."
"Then step aside."
Situ smiled.
