Chapter 849: Hidden Passage

Although the cave was quite spacious and wide, it had a linear interior, meaning there was only a single path for Yuan and the others to traverse.

However, even after walking back and forth this cave multiple rounds, they were unable to find any secret passages that the demons could've used to hide themselves.

"I don't see any formations in this place. If there's really a secret passage, it's not concealed by a formation— or it's concealed by a formation that's so powerful that even I cannot see it. However, demons don't have the power to create formations or arrays." Yuan said.

"I also don't see anything out of the ordinary with my divine sense." Feng Yuxiang said.

And she continued in a worried voice, "What if this is a trap? We should probably leave this cave for now."

"Wait." Lan Yingying suddenly said.

"What is it? Do you see something?" Yuan turned to look at her.

"I'm not sure, but that area feels off for some reason— the ground." Lan Yingying pointed at the ground right before the dead end.

"The ground?" Yuan walked over to where Lan Yingying pointed and inspected the ground.

When he couldn't find anything wrong with it, he decided to stomp on the ground.

"Hm?" Yuan raised his eyebrows when he felt a hollow feedback from the stomp.

"It's empty here." He said to them before stabbing into the ground with the Empyrean Overlord.

The ground immediately collapsed, revealing a hidden staircase that led underground.

Furthermore, the scent of demons that had disappeared suddenly appeared again. "I can smell them again! Demons! They're below us!" Yuan quickly said.

"How did we miss such an obvious passage? This must be the work of a treasure that can misdirect our senses. We should be careful, Young Master." Feng Yuxiang warned him.

"Good idea, especially since I can smell more than three demons now." Yuan suddenly said.

"Huh? How many demons can you smell?" Feng Yuxiang asked.

After taking a few deep breaths, Yuan replied, "About seven or eight."
