章 1050: The Ancient Pathway

Not far from the Imperial City was a massive forest filled with vicious demonic beasts. In the center of this forest, a vast river flowed, connected to the endless sea. 

On this moonless night, in the dark forest, a barely visible dark silhouette appeared around the river bank, holding a strange compass in its hand. 

After confirming something on the compass surface, "The hidden entrance should be here." It muttered to itself before diving into the raging river without any regard for the many marine demonic beasts in it. 

The compass in its hand began to tremble as it glowed brightly in a specific direction in the river's depth. The black silhouette continued diving as the river seemed quite deep. 

Suddenly, because of the brilliant white light from the compass in this darkness, it was like a torch that could be seen from miles away. 

Powerful auras locked on the silhouette and bolted in its direction with dense bloodlust.
