According to sect rules, only those with certification devices can enter the Ancestral Darktunnel. Anyone lacking such a device who attempts entry will be killed instantly by spells inside.
As a result, no one is assigned to guard this location. When Yan Xiaobao arrived, there was no one there. After hesitating for a moment, he ventured into the cave-like entrance. Moments later, he stood at the beautiful tunnel entrance, facing over a hundred shaft-like tunnels.
Though the shafts didn't look particularly special, Yan Xiaobao knew that once he activated the certification device, at least one shaft would emit a bright light, indicating he could enter.
As he surveyed the area, intending to activate the device, a young woman emerged from a shaft ahead.
It was Zhou Xinqi using her Foundation Establishment technique. Almost immediately upon appearing, she noticed Yan Xiaobao.
"EEE? Niece Xinqi!" he said, blinking.
