72 Chapter 71: The Arduous Path of Cultivation_1

As Fang Ren stepped entirely through the Asura Gate, he felt the weight around him return to normal, and before his eyes lay a narrow tunnel, surrounded by a reddish hue.

The temperature here was high, and no sooner had Fang Ren entered than he felt his skin burn as if scorched in pain, while from the crimson walls wafted a pungent, blood-like stench.

Fang Ren looked back and found that the door through which he had entered had vanished; there was only a narrow tunnel with no end in sight.

Feeling the pain on his skin and the bloody odor all around, an invisible pressure made his spirit tremble, and instinctively, he wanted to shrink back.
