The Beginning

Xiao Ning'er was in awe, she also tried to test the material used to build this gate, which was also gigantic in size, it was even bigger than Glory City's gates, any the material used to build it were far stronger.

Shen Tian still had to find out how you could open this gate,"Feng Hao, do you have any idea how we can open this gate? I don't think It has something to pull it, and if we try to push it, it probably won't open from the rust."

Feng Hao smirked,"Actually like you said, just use your raw strength to burst it open, I mean… You are at least at the peak of the Black Gold Rank, right?" He questioned Shen Tian who whistled innocently.

"Answer my questions...Bastard."

Shen Tian silently looked at the massive gates and sighed,"It might give birth to commotion if I do it your way, Feng Hao… However, I don't think there is another way, it doesn't seem like they were opened recently."

Shen Tian's hand formed a fist, and he took a stance, taking a deep breath he said,"Stand back, it might be a bit careful." He warned the two, who almost immediately retreated back, knowing Shen Tian was very strong physically.

He used a chakra influenced technique,"Heavenly Fist Of Pain" Which used his chakra to increase the physical strength of his fist, and used the strength of around the second star of the Legend Rank.

*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*

The gates shook as his fist made contact with it, creating several shockwaves which pushed Feng Hao and Xiao Ning'er behind, who struggled to keep their balance at the immense amount of wind attacking them.

The gates screeched, as rust fell to the ground, creating several firework like explosions, and opened, Shen Tian roared, the appearance of what was behind the gates appeared in front of the three.

Shen Tian sweated,'That punch made me relax a bit, seriously, I really had so much steam to release… Fucking Glory City, who knew mortals could make me so annoyed.' He thought and sighed.

Feng Hao and Xiao Ning'er were speechless, and the latter decided to speak first,"Isn't this the same technique you used when you opened that massive hole, back at the Ancient Orchid City Ruins?"

Shen Tian looked at Xiao Ning'er and nodded,"Yeah, but in this I used a far higher amount of strength than in it, it probably could've created a hole ten times larger than that… Those gates are heavy."

Feng Hao gasped for air,"This is what so powerful… You definitely have entered the Legend Rank! The Second Legend Rank Demon Spiritualist of the city right now, after Ye Mo, and you are so much younger!"

Shen Tian rolled his eyes,"Remember, this Underground City has around a hundred Legend Rank Demon Spiritualists, and even people beyond it, my achievement isn't really that massive." Feng Hao pouted.

"But you are only 13, when compared to them, I'm sure you can be also considered crazy! I mean… You still have a month until you turn 14, just how crazy is that?!" He shouted at Shen Tian.

Shen Tian rolled his eyes,"Let's go inside, it seems there is a massive tunnel before we can reach anything, according to my spy, this tunnel is a few kilometers long, so we can take it easy." He stated.

Xiao Ning'er looked at him silently, and decided to take his hand, intertwining the two together, Feng Hao smirked silently, while Shen Tian did not have any reaction, he thought it was natural since they were supposed to be married sooner or later.

Xiao Ning'er blushed slightly, and then was cheerful, and was slightly surprised, when Shen Tian lowered the distance between the two, and their forearms meet each other sometimes, earning a blush from her.

Feng Hao smiled, he was happy that his friend could be comfortable in his life, and wouldn't lack the opportunity to experience the love of a woman. What was he talking about, he was 13 himself....

After a few dozen minutes of walking, they had reached the end of the tunnel, Shen Tian groaned,in front of them, was another gate,"Seriously, how many gates do those dudes need?" He complained.

Shen Tian had a grim expression,"Stand behind me, I'll use my technique again, even if it creates a commotion, there isn't really much I can do about it." He took a stance and punched again.

The gate was forced open, with far less struggle than the other one, it seems this gate was lighter than the other one, and had way less rust than that one, it seems it was maintained more than the other.

The difference between the two gates was, also the sight behind them, instead of a dark tunnel, the second gate had a beautiful field in front of it, filled with grass, and strangely, there was even a blue sky above.

It looked as if they had never left the surface, however Shen Tian and the rest, knew that it was fully artificial, some expert probably had used their Demon Spirit to create this fake look, so the rest could be more comfortable.

The three stepped on the grass, and after touching it, they immediately noticed how soft it was ,as if it was artificial,"Even the grass is not true, I guess they couldn't fully make grass from the surface without true light."

Xiao Ning'er nodded,"However, it still does look nice, compared to how the Dark Ruins look, it is indeed better, the Dark Ruins look as if someone burned the entire surface, it is extremely barren." She said.

Feng Hao looked around and also noticed several trees in the distance,"It seems they also found a way to plant trees here ,those are not artificial at all." Shen Tian smiled softly,"I guess those know the important of trees, and how they produce oxygen to keep us alive."

Feng Hao rolled his eyes,"That's basic biology, even we are taught that, we were taught about that in one of our first classes at the Holy Orchid Institute!" Although it seemed obvious, Shen Tian was actually the one who added this knowledge to the system.
