Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 197 Invisible Gate

If she loses her composure now, then Song Juan is truly in danger.

Xia Mian forced herself to calm down and looked at the ground pointed to by the black arrow.

There was a small whirlwind on that piece of ground, swirling continuously in that empty land.

Xia Mian gently pressed her lips together, her expression becoming increasingly grave.

"There seems to be something hidden underground." Lu Zechuan slightly furrowed his brows, lost in thought.

Xia Mian lightly moved her fingers, and the whirlwind hovering on the ground was immediately swept away by her gesture.

A thin layer of dried leaves covered the ground; they were sparsely scattered, with gaps revealing the dark earth beneath.

Under the thin mist, golden lines occasionally flowed on the exposed ground.

Xia Mian’s eyes narrowed tightly, this ground seemed to be enchanted with a spell.

"This is an Invisible Gate." Xia Weizhang stood some distance away, astonishment showing in his eyes.

Xia Mian slightly pressed her lips together, raised her hand, and thoughtfully rubbed her chin.

Invisible Gate?

A flash of insight struck Xia Mian’s mind — yes, this was an Invisible Gate.

As long as the array is set up, an invisible gate can be established within a radius of a hundred miles, which can lead to any space.

Xia Mian furrowed her brows even tighter. If this Invisible Gate led to any space, how could she determine where Song Juan had gone?

"Cousin, heed my advice and let’s go back!" Xia Weizhang’s face turned pale.

The Invisible Gate belonged to the Wood Clan of the Mystical Sects, capable of connecting anywhere plants survived, leading to any place the Wood Clan wished.

Finding traces of the Wood Clan here in the back mountain!

After the war of the Hundred Families, the Divine Clan and the Wood Clan were almost irreconcilably opposed. Discovering Wood Clan traces here now was almost enough to frighten Xia Weizhang to death!

"Go back?" Xia Mian raised her brows lightly, "Go back and wait for your people to bring me news?"

Never mind whether the Divine Clan would be perfunctory with her, judging by their attitude toward Song Juan, they likely couldn’t wait to sever mother and daughter ties!

Xia Weizhang showed a look of urgency, "Cousin, the three elders promised to help you investigate your mother’s news, so they surely would spare no effort, you just need to quietly wait at Divine Manor..."

Before Xia Weizhang finished speaking, Xia Mian’s fingers moved slightly, drawing a complex talisman in the air.

As Xia Mian’s fingers moved, Xia Weizhang could clearly see the flow of spiritual energy in the air.

At that moment, Xia Weizhang was so shocked that his mouth dropped open, his jaw almost hitting the ground.

Lu Zechuan being able to continue using magic here was something he could somewhat accept, considering the place was filled with plants and vegetations, giving the Wood Clan a natural advantage.

But what about Xia Mian? She could also use magic, what was going on?!

Could this forbidden back mountain discern individuals?

Was it because they both looked good?!

As Xia Weizhang’s worldview shattered and he began to question life, the speed at which the golden threads on the ground were connecting increased, as if transmitting some signal.

As the speed of the golden threads’ connection quickened, a hundred meters behind the group, a cracking sound began to emerge from the space.

Ding Cheng held their breath, turned back slowly, and saw the space being torn apart by invisible hands...

A fierce wind roared out from the torn space, causing flesh and bones to ache painfully.

Xia Mian sensed something abnormal behind her, glanced back, then pushed the talisman she had formed onto the golden patterns on the ground, before turning to walk towards the torn space.

Lu Zechuan followed closely, Ding Cheng initially wanted to slip away, but their body didn’t listen and was pulled towards the torn space by the gusting wind, closing in involuntarily.

Ding Cheng looked distraught; just a mere portion of the fierce wind leaking from the torn space was so domineering, entering might very well tear their bodies to shreds!

Ding Cheng struggled not to enter, yet Xia Mian’s voice softly reached her ears, "You’ve got to tread the path my mom once walked, no matter what you say."

With Taoist Techniques on her side, Ding Cheng was still so fearful of this Space Gate, while Song Juan was just an ordinary person! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Once through this Space Gate, life and death were unpredictable...

Xia Mian forced herself not to think of these things, slowly stepping into the Space Gate.

The fierce wind surged from all directions, yet Xia Mian seemed immune to the pain. She lightly waved her hand to disperse the wind and continued forward.

Ding Cheng and Xia Weizhang followed closely behind Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan, their thoughts diverging.

Having entered this place, with its peculiarities all around, they feared finding an exit on their own was impossible.

Now, following Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan was the wisest choice.

Inside the Space Gate, everything was a white blur, obscuring directions and the view of the interior.

However, in the distance, there lay a faint light, like a lighthouse in the ocean, guiding the group’s way forward.

As the group kept moving forward, a cracking sound came from the space behind them as it began to slowly close!

Xia Weizhang’s face changed again dramatically!

If they hadn’t exited this section of the Space Gate before the space behind them closed, would they be smushed into a pancake by the closing space?

Just as this thought sprouted in Xia Weizhang’s mind, the speed of the closing space behind them suddenly began to increase.

Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan were aware of it and quickened their pace.

As the space behind them began to close inch by inch, spatial turbulence surged above them.

Ding Cheng and Xia Weizhang, in such an environment and without their Spiritual Power Taoist Skill, turned pale, tightly following behind Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan.

Despite their efforts, spatial turbulence occasionally brushed past them, leaving immediate bloody marks where touched.

Ding Cheng looked distraught, with a mood to curse out loud.

If she had known following Xia Mian would lead to this outcome, she’d undoubtedly have left this blasted place without hesitation!

But now, speaking of which, it’s too late, having entered this cursed back mountain, her Space Transmission Chain was completely dormant, she couldn’t leave even if she wanted to.

Blood dropped onto the broken space’s ground, vanishing abruptly, as if something had sucked it away.

Yet in everyone’s tense progression, nobody noticed this detail.

One drop, two drops, as the blood from Ding Cheng and Xia Weizhang dripped onto the ground, the space grew increasingly restless.

The formerly white and foggy space seemed to dim now.

Lu Zechuan narrowed his eyes slightly, holding onto Xia Mian’s hand tightly, "Something’s not right!"

No sooner had these words left his mouth, the white misty space passage began to shake violently, making it hard for everyone to stand firmly.

As the shaking intensified, spatial turbulence grew more dense.

Xia Mian’s face darkened, the distant light seemed to dim even further.
