The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

Chapter 182 Obsidian Gate

Thinking that the blood-filled magic pot might be a decoy, Chu Qianqiu looked at the towering Emperor's Tower and felt the impending danger.

There was no time to waste, so he rushed straight to the top of the tower, hoping to find some possible clues.

Liu Jiangnan quickly followed suit and the two of them arrived at the top of the tower, witnessing the view from the peak.

Located at the highest point of the imperial city, besides being able to see endless blood flowing out from the top of the tower, there seemed to be nothing else worth observing.

Chu Qianqiu dispersed and evaporated a large amount of blood water from his side, and upon closer inspection, he discovered in the endless blood spring a continuously bleeding fountain, which should be the source of all the calamities.

"Father-in-law, will you accompany me inside?"

"I believe that fountain is the root of all the calamities at present, and it must harbor terrifying dangers."

"Cough, you brat..."

"I have accompanied you all the way here, so why would there be any reason not to continue forward?"

"Let's go, whether it's life or death, I must venture on with you!"

With a resolute reply, Chu Qianqiu no longer wasted words and leaped directly into the endless blood pool.

After experiencing a baptism of blood and crawling through the endless blood water, risking the erosion of their bodies by the blood, the two finally arrived inside the Emperor's Tower, in a blood chamber.

This blood chamber seemed to be the bedroom where the emperor resided, but the emperor was no longer here.

"This place has been completely soaked in blood... that old fellow from the Rising Sun Empire is not here."

Quickly leaving the blood chamber, Chu Qianqiu followed the blood flowing on the ground and found the staircase leading to the bottom of the Emperor's Tower.

Now, all the blood erupting into the sky was being transported step by step through this rotating staircase.

The further they went down, the stronger they could feel the concentration of blood.

Chu Qianqiu and Liu Jiangnan had no choice but to continue moving downward, searching for the ultimate source of this blood.

...

As they continued to explore along the rotating staircase, they constantly probed and finally discovered the source of the blood spurting out in a certain place below.

"A well?"

It turned out that in the deepest part below, in the underground passage, there were many equally-sized sturdy wells.

These wells were now spraying out large amounts of crimson blood, a horrifying scene that evoked fear and disgust.

In the midst of the blood water, it was already difficult for the two to distinguish anything else, only able to see these wells splattering blood, nothing else.

...

Just as the two were contemplating whether to continue exploring and probe further down the well.

Suddenly, from a distant corridor, a tremendous suction force emerged, seemingly wanting to drain the blood and pull their bodies in that direction.

And the blood that was originally gushing out from the wells towards the outside no longer sprayed, but instead crazily devoured inward.

The blood that had rushed to the top of the Emperor's Tower flowed back, along with the blood that had already covered the imperial city, returning to the embrace of the Emperor's Tower.

But Chu Qianqiu and the others didn't know any of this. They could only feel the force pulling them towards a certain place, which seemed to be the final destination of their journey, the place they had been searching for.

This force was irresistible, and they could only go with the flow.

...

After a while, the surroundings started to become empty, and the blood gradually disappeared. They were brought to an underground square.

This square was illuminated by a special purple light, creating a terrifying atmosphere.

The surface of the square was made of a hard layer similar to obsidian, with many inscriptions that they couldn't understand, like some kind of sacrificial incantation.

Arriving here, Chu Qianqiu and the others were finally able to stand up freely, no longer wandering in the blood sea in a swimming posture.

It was also here that he saw the familiar figures he had been desperately searching for.

And there were quite a few people.

"Why are you all here?"

In front of the altar square, in front of a huge obsidian door, there were a large number of soldiers from the Sun Empire, as well as some familiar figures.

Chu Qianqiu quickly went over to see what was going on and finally found his father and Xiao Hong.

His father and Xiao Hong were not paying attention to him at the moment. They were staring intently at a huge eye in the center of the Black door.

This eye was strangely formed, appearing in the center of the door, vivid and lifelike.

And this eyeball was extremely sinister, like a demonic eye. A crack opened in the center of Black's eyeball, like a bottomless abyss.

It was wandering aimlessly, constantly staring at the people below who were unable to move and had lost consciousness. Naturally, it also saw Chu Qianqiu.

Chu Qianqiu looked up and then looked down at Xiao Hong and the others who couldn't move. He realized what was going on.

Transforming into the Heavenly Fire Spear, he stabbed towards the demonic eye.

He thought that this stab would probably fail, because it didn't look like something simple.

But unexpectedly, this demonic eye didn't dodge or avoid it. It seemed to be weakened, and it was directly pierced by the spear, then painfully melted into a pool of Black blood.

"Is it that simple?"

Staring blankly as the demonic eye disappeared, Chu Qianqiu still couldn't believe it. He thought that maybe he was too happy too soon, perhaps the demonic eye had successfully evaded and being pierced just now was just an illusion.

But then, the soldiers below, who had lost consciousness and were motionless, began to regain their senses. Even Xiao Hong personally called out to him. It was only then that Chu Qianqiu realized that he had indeed succeeded.

"Master, you've finally come, that's great!"

Xiao Hong, who had regained his senses, came to his side at this time, hugging him and refusing to let go.

Chu Cangxuan also arrived after waking up, patting his shoulder. Tears were streaming down his face, as if he had experienced some life-threatening crisis, to the point where he couldn't even speak now.

Seeing that both of his loved ones were alive and seemingly unharmed, Chu Qianqiu finally let go of his worries, sighed, and released a lot of the pressure he had before.

He looked at his father, then at Xiao Hong, asking them how they ended up in this place, what this place was, the eye in front of the door, and what the purpose of this door was, and why they were immobilized here.

To these questions, the two of them said that it was a long story, and they couldn't explain everything. So they turned their gaze downwards.

"This matter is a long story. Perhaps only one person can completely answer your doubts."
