Chapter 508.2
Chapter 508 “Nine Jade Tablets (2)”
After eight hours of flight, their destination soon appeared in sight . It’s a lonely peak surrounded by jagged cliffs and rus.h.i.+ng rivers down below, a dangerous terrain all around . Regardless of this fact, none of the partic.i.p.ants wanted to slow down for the cave entrance was just up ahead . If not for the haze of fog emanating around the hole, they would’ve likely charged ahead of the hosts themselves .
“Elder w.a.n.g, under the command of Lord Hong Ru, I’ve brought the partic.i.p.ants for the Star Cave Venture . ”
Speaking out respectfully was Master Wei Bo who directed his speech at a certain old elder sitting crossed legged beside the entrance . Based on how white that hair was and the perennially petrified pose this person held – plus there’s a thick layer of dust on the man’s shoulder – who knows how long he’s been here .
Furthermore, the posture of Xue Pian Ran was rather tamed as well when facing this strange senior . In fact, it’s almost like she’s taking extra precaution to show her inferior status like a well-behaved la.s.s . Putting into consideration for all these factors, it’s obvious this one that’s known as Elder w.a.n.g was very special in his ident.i.ty . Perhaps second only to Chen Hong Ru, the lord and master of the Dan Palace .
“Old rules, draw a lot first if any of you wish to enter the cave . ” After a long minute of no response, the one known as Elder w.a.n.g finally spoke in leisure tone before tossing out nine pieces of jade tablets towards the ground .
Just that they didn’t land… . the objects simply dangled there in the air right before touching the dirt, releasing a wrapping bright light to illuminate the numbers etched along the surface of these objects .
The Star Cave was the forbidden grounds of the Dan Palace . That mean’s unless it’s the determined date after every three years, the place would remain closed off by a seal and guarded by this unidentified elder . In simpler terms, this Elder w.a.n.g was the guardian in charge of deciding who gets to go in!

Unlike Ling Yue who was rather intrigued by the intricacies of these strange items that’s just floating in the air, the other partic.i.p.ants only showed eagerness to have go at the supposed ‘lot’ .
“Ladies and gentlemen, there are nine starting routes within the Star Cave, each diverting into two separate roads inside . Naturally the treasures are also different depending on the path you take because its all different . The first to third are the best, four to six are secondary, and the worst lies in the seven and ninth numbered routes . Now, let us begin . Each team can only send one representative forward to pick the lot . Whatever numbered jade you get will be whatever cave path you take . ” Xue Pian Ran softly explains using her delicate voice .
“It’s just a lottery, how difficult could it be . ” Some of the others started to sneer at the long explanation . Their opinion was that they’ve already arrived here outside their objective so its only a waste of time and effort to go through such complicated measures .
Speaking of which, the first to come forward was the leader of another nation that’s known as the Xuan Kingdom in the north, he’s also the one who made the comment the earliest as well .
The Sacred Maiden herself said it already, number one would warrant them the best route while nine would give them the worst path . So, the target of this individual naturally fell onto the number one, two, and three of these nine jades .
Upon catching his intended target, the person’s face couldn’t resist showing a sense of ecstasy .
“Haha, it’s easy, I got it . ” Unfortunately, that gleeful laugh didn’t even get to finish before an excruciating scream escaped that mouth .
Before anyone knew what was happening, the impudent arm there just suddenly crunched up into an awkward bend, followed swiftly by a splattering, gory mess of what used to be that ignorant man . All that remains now was the mushy ground meat of his flesh on the ground and a misty cloud of blood .
“Overconfident fool, the delegation team of the Xuan Kingdom has lost their qualification to enter the Star Cave . Next!” The guardian known as Elder w.a.n.g announces, his face flat like an expressionless mask .
“That is too much . You people only said we must draw a ‘lot’, never did you mention anything about subjecting us to another trial . We came all this way to North Qing so we’re not leaving empty-handed . ” The secondary leader of the Xuan Kingdom roars out after his superior was just murdered before his very eyes .
