First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419: Opening The Hidden Chamber

Orion inwardly nodded his head, ’I know, but we have no choice. The portal leading to the outside is most likely at the center of the ruin. Even the Beastkins’ portal is always shifting, and now even they can’t get back. We need to head there if we want to leave.’

Lumi thoughtfully fell silent, quietly retreating to a corner of Orion’s Sea of Consciousness as the group pressed onward, moving deeper into the labyrinth.

Orion maintained his calm composure externally, but inside, his mind was sharpened to an absolute edge of caution, constantly sensing the increasing oppressive aura that permeated the air around them.

Each subsequent corridor and chamber had more intricate runic patterns on the walls, the stone walls etched with elaborate runic designs pulsating gently with ancient energies.

Mana streams flowed visibly across the surfaces like veins of ethereal light, casting eerie yet mesmerizing glows upon the group as they traversed forward.

They encountered several battles, taking their time to dispatch the beasts they encountered through seamless coordination.

Orion didn’t care about his mana output as he blasted one spell after another due to his absurd mana quantity. And even the frequency of battles was steadily increasing, a clear sign they were nearing something significant.

Eventually, after hours of cautiously progressing through the labyrinth, Orion and the rest arrived at a vast sealed chamber.

The atmosphere here was suffused with a subtle menacing aura. Standing before a towering stone door, heavily sealed with complex formations and runes, were three unfamiliar Tier 9 human cultivators and the four Beastkin geniuses.

Orion’s gaze rapidly swept across the human cultivators, immediately sensing that their auras were somewhat unstable, clearly indicating that they’d only recently broken through to Tier 9, likely after entering the labyrinth.

His brows furrowed slightly, as this development was unexpected. He had underestimated the ambition of the noble houses. They had clearly sent peak Tier 8 humans to quickly break through after getting treasures here.

As Orion’s group approached, all eyes shifted toward them. The Beastkin cultivators displayed open contempt and irritation, especially Rokar, whose eyes burned with fierce hostility.

In contrast, the human cultivators immediately recognized Orion and his group, offering respectful nods of acknowledgment.

Breaking the silence, Orion looked directly at the human experts and calmly asked, "What’s inside this chamber? Why are you all standing here instead of entering?"

Before the human experts could respond, Rokar’s voice sneered contemptuously, his tone filled with scorn, "Do you seriously think we’d just be standing out here if we already knew what was inside?"

Orion didn’t spare him a glance, completely ignoring his provocation. His gaze remained thoughtfully fixed upon the massive door, analyzing the formation.

Rokar, seeing Orion dismiss his words, felt a vein pop on his forehead and turned his head away, choosing to avoid a direct conflict right now, especially against Orion’s entire group.

Yet, Elias and Magi weren’t about to let such blatant disrespect pass quietly.

Magi scoffed openly, voice filled with mockery, "Heh, it seems the Wolfkin puppy knows how to bark loudly now, too bad barking doesn’t open doors."

Rokar spun around furiously, glaring daggers toward Magi, his killing intent spiking sharply, "What did you just say, you weak human trash?"

Elias laughed sarcastically, deliberately adding fuel to the flames, "Did our Magi hurt your feelings, little puppy? If you have time to prance around here, why not go open the door instead?"

The air quickly became heavy with tension as both sides exchanged fierce glares and heated words, their conflict threatening to explode at any moment.

Ignoring their arguments entirely, Orion calmly stepped toward the towering door. His approach toward the door caused all eyes to turn toward him, their expressions swiftly shifting from irritation to intrigue.

The human cultivators watched him intently, while the Beastkin merely sneered skeptically, expecting nothing.

Orion gently placed his palm onto the cold, intricately carved surface of the enormous stone door.
