Xiao Lengyue stared at the arrogant face of Xuan Xing. Her face was expressionless, in this place not only Xuan Xing was proficient with divine inscriptions, there were a few other geniuses who also had high attainments in the same dao as well. However, nobody seemed to be able to compare to Xuan Xing.

Xuan Yang and Xuan Xings father was the extremely famous Xuan Emperor. Not only was the Xuan Emperor at the immortal emperor level, he has very high attainments in divine inscriptions to the extent that he could even reverse the heavens and earth. Xuan Yang had no interest in divine inscriptions and was only interested in increasing his personal strength. Xuan Xing was different, he inherited the talent of his father in the dao of divine inscriptions and was even more powerful compared to some divine inscriptionists of the elder generations.

However, Qin Wentian seemed as though he had not even heard Xuan Xings words. His eyes were in total focus, staring at the misty emperor palaces ancient pathway. The runic network diagram there was too mystical, and incredibly profound, able to be said that it was at the very peak of divine inscriptions. He could clearly unravel a part of it, but once he did that, it would trigger a burst of destructive energy. He wasnt sure how terrible the consequences would be.

There were different pictures that made up the diagram. And it seemed that behind each picture, there were countless hands waiting for you to unravel it, pulling the person into the network of runes if you fail in your attempt. For those with a lower level of attainments in the dao of divine inscriptions, they would suffer a miserable fate if they tried and failed to accomplish it.

"Im unable to solve this." Qin Wentian suddenly spoke. Xiao Lengyues countenance froze, she turned her head and stared at Qin Wentian for a moment before stating in a solemn tone, "Try to look at it more meticulously again."

"Theres no one in the City of Ancient Emperors that can unravel this." Qin Wentian decisively replied. A strange expression appeared on Xiao Lengyues face. The arrogance of this fellow didnt seem to be inferior to Xuan Xing.

"Stop your bragging. If you are unable to unravel this, it doesnt mean no one else can." Upon seeing how arrogant Qin Wentian was, and the certainty in his tone when he spoke of divine inscriptions, Xuan Xing felt that Qin Wentian was extremely irritating. Hence, he couldnt help but to sneer coldly.

"Wow, you are so strong. Why dont you unravel it then for me to see?" Qin Wentian replied, using Xuan Xings own words to smack his face.

Xuan Xings expression stiffened. He contemplated, surveying Qin Wentian before smiling in disdain, "Do you know who you are talking to?"

"Or to better put it, do you think because Xiao Lengyue invited you here, you have the qualifications to talk to me in this manner?"

"I dont care who the hell you are. The manner you talk to me with, is the manner I will reply to you in." Qin Wentians countenance was sharp as he replied.

"Excellent." Xuan Xing stepped out. Instantly, a diagram made of runic inscription lines appeared beneath his feet. Xiao Lengyue frowned and swiftly moved in front of Qin Wentian, staring at Xuan Xing as she asked, "Xuan Xing, what are you intending to do?"

"Hiding behind a woman? Useless trash." Xuan Xing coldly laughed as he swept his gaze at Qin Wentian. After that, he flicked his sleeves and continued to observe the runic network diagram of the ancient passageway.

Xiao Lengyues expression was much more unsightly compared to before. She frowned and stared ahead as though she was thinking of something. However, right now she only heard Qin Wentian speaking in a low voice beside her, "Since there is a passageway, there must be a way in for sure. However, Im also certain that theres no one in the City of Ancient Emperors who can unravel that diagram. If we want to enter, we can only try it out, moving on the passageway step by step, allowing the runic diagram to pull us in, thereby causing a transformation to occur. As to how the runic inscriptions would transform, I cant be certain. But if we want to enter the palace, this is the only method left."

Xiao Lengyue turned, her beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian as she asked, "Are you sure?"

"There should already be people who tried this method before." Qin Wentian replied.

Xiao Lengyue stared into Qin Wentians eyes as she nodded, "Indeed, those who stepped on the ancient passageway in the past were all absorbed within because of the transformations caused by the divine inscriptions. We dont even know if they are still living or have already died. From this point, we can see that your conjecture is right."

"Lengyue, dont believe this guy so easily. Hes merely a seventh-level ascendant and his life and death is not important. If you encounter danger, the consequences would be unimaginable." Xia Qianhan cautioned Xiao Lengyue. Qin Wentians idea was too risky.

"Since you dont dare to take a risk, why dont we just return? Why would you want to waste time talking about entering the emperor palace? Could it be that there wont be any dangers in there?" Qin Wentian sarcastically shot back. Xia Qianhans eyes narrowed, "You better mind your tone."

"If you dont need me here, I shall take my leave now." Qin Wentian stared at Xiao Lengyue. This Xia Qianhan had never given him respect since the beginning and he couldnt be bothered with him as well. Qin Wentian has a clear estimation of himself, Xiao Lengyue was a supreme beauty and ranked #6 of the Immortal Ascension Rankings, the daughter of the Xiao Emperor. How would she fall for him? Before this, she invited him into the Xiao Sect solely because of his abilities in divine inscriptions.

However, how about this Xia Qianhan? He didnt have a clear estimation of himself at all. He felt that Qin Wentian wasnt qualified to be beside Xiao Lengyue but most probably, he himself in Xiao Lengyues heart, was also nothing much. Xiao Lengyue didnt even put the two sons of the Xuan Emperor in her eyes. Let alone him, Xia Qianhan.

"Stop fighting." Xiao Lengyue unhappily stated. "Lets wait a few more days to see if the others can unravel this."

Xia Qianhan didnt say anything, he merely coldly glanced at Qin Wentian. There were many experts here who wanted to unravel the diagram yet as time passed by, nobody managed to do so.

However, these geniuses present all had patience, they didnt mind spending time, trying again and again. Qin Wentian sat alone in a spot to cultivate quietly. He already knew he wouldnt be able to unravel this divine inscriptions diagram, so he couldnt be bothered to waste his time.

One mistake would cause countless transformations to the inscriptions. That would only lead to death. As for what transformations would occur, he can only understand after observing them with his own eyes.

"Qin Wentian." At this moment, Xiao Lengyue appeared beside him. Qin Wentian opened his eyes, only to see Xiao Lengyue saying, "After so many days, these people show no signs of advancement at all. Seems like you are correct, I will believe you but do you dare to risk it?"

"I believe since the emperor palace exists, there would surely be a way to enter." Qin Wentian replied.

"Good. In that case, I will follow after you." Xiao Lengyue smiled. Just a slight smile of hers already contained boundless charm. Qin Wentian stood up, his silhouette flickered towards the passageway. Xia Qianhan turned to Xiao Lengyue, "Lengyue, are you sure you want to take the risk?"

"Since we are already here, we might as well test it out. My members of the Xiao Sect, if there are any who wants to retreat, you can feel free to do so. Come with me only if you are willing to take the risk." Xiao Lengyue stepped out, each of her steps were filled with determination. Even a female dared to take the risk, how could the other geniuses of the Xiao Sect choose to retreat? They exchanged glances and shared a laugh before following after Xiao Lengyue.

Qin Wentian walked past Xuan Xing. Xuan Xing inclined his head and stared at them and a moment later, he only saw Qin Wentian directly stepping onto the ancient passageway.

"What?! Is he courting death?" Xuan Xing laughed. As the sound of his voice faded, Qin Wentians foot had already landed on the runic diagram. Instantly, a buzzing sound rang out as a terrifying energy gushed forth. The ancient passageway started to twist about, as though it will soon collapse.

Although Xiao Lengyue was prepared in her heart, she was still stunned when she saw this. However the next moment, she saw Qin Wentians body being absorbed into the passageway. Steeling her heart, she sprinted forward, and stepped onto the passageway as well, together with Qin Wentian.

"Lets go." The Xiao Sects members all stepped within, allowing the ancient passageway to absorb them.

"Have they all gone mad?" A dazzling light gleamed in Xuan Xings eyes. After that he actually commanded, "Members of the Twin Stars Alliance, follow me in as well."

His personality was such, he was unwilling to lose out to others. And given his attainments in divine inscriptions, he also faintly sensed that Qin Wentians words had a possibility of being right. There should be a way in, and seeing Xiao Lengyue daring to take the risk, how could he still choose to retreat?

Since theres someone leading, taking full brunt of the danger, the courage of everyone was boosted. Especially so when they saw Xiao Lengyue, the supreme beauty leading the way. The various geniuses naturally wouldnt choose to retreat now. Hence all of them stepped into the twisting passageway and an instant later, they felt as though the sky and earth turned topsy-turvy, like they were being buried within. However, just a moment later, they saw weak flickers of flames around the walls, illuminating the place they were transported to. The geniuses studied their surroundings and to their surprise, they found out that they seemed to have entered some sort of underground palace.

"Qin Wentian, you are correct." Xiao Lengyues beautiful eyes shone with sharpness as she stared at her surroundings. The true way to reach the emperor palace wasnt the ancient passageway out in the open but underneath it instead. The walls of this underground palace were engraved with complex runic diagrams which were extremely vast. Up ahead, was a stretch of darkness, there seemed to be no end to this passageway.

"Your luck is pretty good." Xuan Xing naturally wasnt willing to admit Qin Wentian managed to spot this earlier than him.

But at this moment, Xuan Xings body suddenly flickered as he dashed forth, rushing towards a certain direction. Not only him, several of the experts also rushed out, including Qin Wentian.

"SCRAM!" Xuan Xing roared in rage. He stomped on the ground as divine inscriptions appeared, forming into a diagram that radiated a terrifying light as a baleful ferocious beast lunged out of it, tearing its way ahead.

Qin Wentian mirrored his move, a wind roc came out of the runic diagram he summoned, rising with the wind, smashing towards the wall ahead of him.

"What are they snatching?" Xiao Lengyue frowned, instantly understanding that these people were trying to snatch something. All those who rushed forth were geniuses that were proficient in divine inscriptions.

"Making his own decisions without consulting you." Xia Qianhan stated. "Lengyue, this person cant be trusted."

Xiao Lengyue stared ahead. Right now she understood that the runic diagrams engraved here are all made of extremely powerful divine inscriptions. All the geniuses who were proficient in divine inscriptions were all summoning their own inscriptions to collide with them.

Qin Wentian borrowed the speed of the wind roc he summoned, causing his speed to explosively rise. However, Xuan Xin roared in rage, "YOU DARE?!"

After yelling, he directly blasted out a palm imprint, wanting to attack Qin Wentian.

But Qin Wentian already arrived before the wall. His palms pressed onto the wall, causing a brilliant light to flash as a picture scroll appeared, the information directly gushing into his sea of consciousness. Behind him, the attacks from the other experts arrived. Qin Wentian transformed into a wind roc once more and sped away, causing the numerous attacks to land on nothing but his shadow.

"Ive acquired the map of this place, why are you all standing around and not helping yet?!" Qin Wentian roared to the Xiao Sect. His body sped forth with rapid speed and upon hearing his words, Xiao Lengyue and her cronies swiftly followed, rushing in Qin Wentians direction. A terrifying freezing energy gushed forth from her, as her palms stretched outwards. It was so powerful that it caused the other geniuses present to freeze for a moment as they shivered.

However, Xuan Xing continued pursuing, rushing towards Qin Wentian. His eyes gleamed with a dazzling astral light before he closed his eyes and opened them once again. After this instant, the runic diagrams here could no longer hide the truth from his eyes, he was able to see everything. Stepping out, he blasted an overwhelming might backwards, wanting to obstruct Xiao Lengyue!

"Mystic Eyes!" Xiao Lengyue froze. Qin Wentian was in terrible danger!
