The night was as quiet as still water.
Under the cover of night, Lin Hao made his way to the Danling Sect's Ice and Fire Pool.
The moment he arrived, Lin Hao was taken aback. Seeing the scene before him, he thought he must have come to the wrong place.
What lay before him was not the pool he had seen yesterday, but a deep, bottomless pit.
Nearby, the sign for the Ice and Fire Pool was gone, replaced by one that read "Sword Enlightenment Pool."
Even the stone bearing the words seemed to have been replaced.
Lin Hao glanced around, then prepared to retreat.
"What's the matter? Thinking of leaving so soon after arriving?" A woman's voice suddenly rang out without any warning.
Though the voice was pleasant, a chill ran down Lin Hao's spine as he heard it.
'After cultivating my Imperial Art, my Spiritual Sense has become terrifyingly sharp. Yet now, someone has snuck up on me completely undetected. If they had intended to kill me, the outcome would have been dire.'
