1420 Basement

After spending a moment staring at the gruesome scene before him, Yuan released a deep sigh before turning around and walking out of the room.

He walked back downstairs until he reached the basement. A thick cloud of dust smacked into Yuan's face when he opened the basement door, but he reacted quickly enough to block it.

Upon walking down the staircase that creaked with every step, Yuan arrived at a small room that he'd visited before during a trial within the Stairway to Heaven.

The room seemed empty at first glance besides the obvious dust covering every inch of the place, but Yuan approached one of the walls in a manner that suggested something was there.

He closed his eyes and stood there in silence. A few moments later, he muttered a few inaudible words. A profound ripple swept the room in response, revealing a red portal standing right in front of Yuan.

After seeing this portal, Yuan walked into it without any hesitation.
