Chu Mu couldn't hide his surprise and suspicion. He subconsciously glanced back, but the fluorescent portal had vanished.
He scanned his surroundings, his eyes filled with vigilance.
"You are permitted to stay here for one year. Afterward, go to the junction of the two realms and set up this array for Us."
Just then, a voice suddenly transmitted into his mind.
Before Chu Mu could even react, the thick, churning fog in the Inheritance Hall began to slowly dissipate.
The trial that was supposed to be here seemed to have vanished with it.
A short distance in front of Chu Mu, a light flickered. A Storage Talisman drifted down, coming to a stop before him.
Chu Mu paused, taken aback. He glanced around the hall; it was unchanged from when he had last seen it. It was still the same Inheritance Hall, and upon the high platform, the massive Celestial Trace Crystal Stone still stood tall and imposing.
The voice had been perfectly clear, yet he couldn't find its source.
