Departure

"Shen Bao, you've crossed me too many times now! And you remained safe just because you are backed by Master Rain… But once we're in the dungeon, you better watch your back!" came the words of Wei Lei as he rushed briskly past me.

Okay, so it seems someone from the Black Tower had found the entrance to a Cultivator's Cave. Usually, these are places filled with intrigue, various dangers, and even death traps!

It will help them gain phenomenal knowledge, and even a smidgen of the treasures found there would make them truly wealthy.
