Chapter 707: Chapter 293 Red Moon Sect (6k)_2
"You must begin by slowly growing from the basics. What you are about to become is what we call a gardener profession, equivalent to a 1st Rank Transcendent."
The voice quickly added this, but this claim did not deter these ordinary people; instead, it further convinced them of the existence of this Transcendent path.
Indeed, only this makes sense. If they could instantly obtain powerful strength without repercussions, they would be truly skeptical.
After all, they are infinitely yearning for the Transcendent, but they are not fools.
On the contrary, compared to some Low-tier Starry Sky professionals, they are even more knowledgeable about the Transcendent professions despite not being able to access them.
It is precisely because of this desire that they mustered the courage to continue venturing into this cave, which appeared abnormal at first glance.
Speaking of which, this cave is quite peculiar. Even with illumination, the surroundings are pitch black, as if this is the natural color of the cave.
The texture beneath their feet is also different from regular mountain rocks, feeling more soft and unlike stone.
The cave is deep, and the young man who asked questions earlier settled his mood, instinctively pondering in his mind.
Although he hasn’t become Transcendent, he still works in a field related to Transcendents, responsible for mining rare minerals required by Transcendent professions, and has some research on geology.
It’s a pity the time isn’t right now; otherwise, he would certainly study the cave’s layers here thoroughly.
Moreover, this is beneath the Holy Mountain, not just any other place.
Since Lord Tree Pavilion emerged, the Holy Mountain has been sealed off and has become a true sanctuary. Even locals from Tree Pavilion find it difficult to approach, so he didn’t expect that the sect had a way to enter.
He speculated that this place is undoubtedly connected to the secret of Tree Pavilion’s upper echelon; otherwise, it’s impossible to establish such a cave here.
Thus, he refrained from acting rashly, having basic trust in the abnormality here.
And even he did not anticipate that his guess would turn out to be true, and it was soon confirmed.
The cave was pitch dark, making it hard to perceive distances. Following the cave path for an indeterminate amount of time, they finally saw a trace of Light not belonging to them ahead.
"We’ve arrived!"
Seeing that ray of Light, the accompanying ordinary people were all spiritually invigorated!
This not only represented their advancement towards the Transcendent but also meant their departure from the depths of the cave!
Though they had the determination in their hearts which enabled them to persist in moving forward, their fear of the cave lingered within.
Their steps quickened a bit, and soon the group followed the Light out of the narrow cave, leading to a sudden expansion up ahead.
"Is there really such a place beneath the Holy Mountain?!"
The young man in front was astonished by the scene before him.
Originally, he thought they would enter some kind of secret base or mysterious ritual site beneath the Holy Mountain.
The truth is precisely that, but he couldn’t correlate the secret base he imagined with the vast underground chamber that lay before him.
They found themselves merely in the mid-section of this enormous chamber, a walkway encircling its midpoint, with the chamber measuring nearly two hundred meters in height; its ceiling blanketed in luminescent plants.
The glow they had seen earlier was a result of these plants, illuminating the cave to the point of rivaling daylight, with tall, primitive flora and various buildings. This place practically constituted an independent ecosystem!
Among them all, the most striking was a particularly tall cathedral.
"Ah, that is the place where you shall receive your gift.
Welcome to Red Moon City!"
The breathtaking scenery vanished in an instant, and soon they were guided into a closed corridor, taking a shortcut to reach a room already prepared for them.
The young man recognized these corridors from a quick glance earlier, where many buildings connected via dark pathways ultimately leading into the still shadowy cave walls.
They were likely traversing one of those corridors now.
Yet, to be fair, this pathway was far beyond his initial expectations. He thought it would resemble the dark pipes, but found it surprisingly high-tech, with silvery metallic surfaces lined with bands of light. This was the epitome of a secret base!
Facing the imminent Transcendent, he could barely contain his excitement.
Meanwhile, outside the corridor encased in metal, the Fungus Blanket wriggled, channeling Magic Power to various places.
The originally concealed Insect Swarm and the witches emerged from their hiding places to continue their work, and even the tranquil-looking plants began swaying autonomously, stirring the air.
It turned out all were merely disguising themselves, creating the illusion of a normal underground world before the group’s eyes!
However, having entered the corridor, these individuals were no longer aware...
That is until, the next time they realize this, it will be a time when there’s no need to hide anymore...
Perhaps due to the surge of excitement, their pace quickened considerably; the corridor wasn’t too lengthy, and they soon arrived in a room.
"Is this what will grant us power?"
The room lacked any unnecessary decoration, containing only a long table, and a number of special artifacts equal to their group size. The leading young man immediately discerned the truth.
"Indeed, with these, you shall acquire power equivalent to 1st Rank Transcendent.
Now, take one each, and find a room to try Fusion."
The guide behind them waved his hand, and the wall of the room split open to form a doorway, revealing a hallway with hints of room doors within.
