"Meow!"

The little mysterious cat looked at the bronze door and let out a wary cry.

Su Fan immediately asked, "Is there danger behind this?"

The little mysterious cat nodded right away, and with the little creature's warning, Su Fan became even more cautious.

Next, he placed the White Jade Tiger Talisman into the recessed slot on the bronze door, and the bronze door indeed slowly opened.

Su Fan and the little mysterious cat entered, arriving in a corridor of an underground palace.

"Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Crossbow arrows with special tips soon came bursting toward Su Fan.

Su Fan struck out with his palm in mid-air, then witnessed a jaw-dropping scene.

The palm strike he unleashed dissipated instantly upon encountering the crossbow arrows with special tips.

In the American movies, there's a character called Superman, who can fly and is omnipotent.

But the moment he encounters something called kryptonite, he immediately falters.

These crossbow arrows with special tips have a terrifying suppressive effect on a martial artist's True Qi.

Su Fan even suspected that his protective barrier might be ineffective against these arrows.

With this thought, he abandoned the idea of using his protective barrier to withstand the arrows and instead brandished his five-foot-long sword.

The counterfeit Taia Sword can slice gold and jade, and cut through iron like mud.

"Crack! Crack!"

No matter how many arrows came bursting towards Su Fan,

they were all cut down by the five-foot-long sword in his hand.

Su Fan swung his sword while progressing through the corridor.

Fortunately, this corridor was quite spacious; otherwise, he might not have been able to wield his five-foot-long sword here.

This corridor was very long, with luminous pearls embedded at regular intervals.

Su Fan walked eight hundred steps before coming out of the corridor, arriving in a spacious hall.

As soon as he arrived here, another mechanism was triggered.

"Boom—"

A thousand-pound obstruction fell from above the corridor, completely sealing it off.

Then, from all sides, a large amount of toxic smoke surged forward.

"It's bad!" Seeing this, Su Fan thought to himself.

He, of course, was immune to all poisons, but the little mysterious cat didn't have this capability.

"Buzz!"

Although the little mysterious cat didn't possess Su Fan's skills, it had special abilities of its own.

Suddenly, it raised a golden protective barrier around itself, completely isolating everything.

This protective barrier was markedly different from the ordinary ones; it seemed to be a more advanced application of True Qi.

The little mysterious cat's protective barrier soon began to encompass Su Fan.

Su Fan said, "I'm immune to all poisons, don't worry about me."

After hearing this, the little mysterious cat used the protective barrier to shield itself alone.

This protective barrier was indeed powerful; the toxic smoke surging around could not affect it at all.

The toxic smoke similarly couldn't do anything to Su Fan.

The toxic smoke persisted for a full hour before slowly dissipating.

After the toxic smoke dissipated, another door opened at that moment.

The sight behind this door also left Su Fan greatly shocked.

Although many tomb raider stories mention things like Golden Silk Jade Robes and the living dead,

this time, Su Fan really saw the Golden Silk Jade Robe and the living dead.

Behind the stone door were sixty-four lamps and a medicine pool.

In the medicine pool lay an elder clad in a Golden Silk Jade Robe.

When Su Fan saw this elder, the latter also opened his clouded eyes.

However, the elder was completely unable to move and merely looked calmly at Su Fan from a distance.

Su Fan dared not act rashly, for the aura emanating from this elder was stronger than any Great Grandmaster he had previously encountered.

Therefore, the elder's strength was unquestionable: he was a true Grandmaster!
