"Allow me to open this stone door, young master!"
Gailo launched a powerful shot and hit the stone door with his palm.
The vigorous positive energy slammed into the stone door with tremendous force, making it shake. It even caused the entire church to tremble.
However, such a powerful blow failed to break through the stone door.
After trembling for a while, the stone door only moved slightly inward. However, it still stood firm and had no intention of opening.
Gailo felt a little embarrassed at that.
He was an expert at the fifth level of the Fetus Refine Realm, after all. In Great Ling World, he was equivalent to a Great Bishop, second only to the Pope.
Right then, however, he couldn't open a single stone door, which was a little embarrassing.
Thus, Gailo took a deep breath. This time, he was prepared to go all out. He was definitely going to blast open the stone door. He wouldn't embarrass himself in front of Fade again.
However, just as Gailo was about to strike, Fade stopped him. "Let me do it!"
"This isn't an ordinary stone door. There's a formation on it. If we were to use brute force on it, I'm worried that half of the church might collapse."
After explaining, Fade took a step forward. A trace of positive energy emerged from his fingertips and he quickly tapped a few times on the stone door.
With the infusion of Fade's positive energy, a complicated six-pointed star pattern appeared on the stone gate, emitting a layer of dark red light. It had a unique aura to it.
"Look at that aura. No wonder it was so hard to break," Gailo said with a sigh.
While he was speaking, Fade attacked again. He hit the six-pointed star a few times in succession, and several beams of light began to flow in a specific direction and order.
Then, with a light crack, a fissure appeared in the middle of the stone gate and it opened automatically.
Seeing that, Gailo's eyes lit up. "As expected of you, young master. You're talented in formation cultivation, too!"
Fade ignored Gailo's flattery. He took a step forward and entered the dark space behind the stone gate.
Gailo followed closely behind. After walking for a while, they found that the passage behind the stone gate was slanted downward. They had probably entered someplace akin to a secret underground chamber.
"What on earth is this place? It's so mysterious. It even has three Bishops guarding it," Gailo muttered.
All of a sudden, a burst of rushing wind came from both sides of the passage.
The sharp arrows were whizzing toward the two men at an extremely fast speed.
Despite that, Fade casually waved his hand and deflected all the arrows.
"There are hidden mechanisms, too. How interesting!" Fade narrowed his eyes and continued to move forward.
As they went deeper, they encountered a lot of traps along the way. Some would cause a blazing fire, some would surround them with freezing ice, some would release poisonous gas, and some would unleash a vicious beast.
To Fade, though, it was no big deal. He managed to get through all of them easily.
After passing through nine traps, they finally walked out of the narrow passage and came to a brightly lit stone room.
At that moment, however, there were already dozens of men in the stone room with pale faces but strong bodies. They were holding weapons and surrounding the exit.
Behind those guards stood a long-haired man in a moon-white robe in the middle of the stone room.
"Who are you? How dare you break into the secret chamber of Twin River Church?!"
As soon as the man shouted, his subordinates immediately moved and attacked Gailo and Fade. Their killing intent was awe-inspiring.
Gailo was the first to rush forward. After a series of crackling sounds, he quickly subdued the dozens of guards in just a few breaths.
The man in the long robe was shocked and shouted, "Who are you? Do you know-"
However, before he could finish his words, he was picked up by Gailo and brought over to Fade.
"This man is an ordinary person, young master. However, the guards from earlier were a little strange. They seem to have been hypnotized and couldn't feel any pain. They were fighting with their lives on the line," Gailo explained.
Fade nodded slightly and glared at the man in the long robe. He coldly stated, "Tell me, what kind of place is this? Who set it up? What is it used for?"
The man continued to yell. "How dare you! How could such a secret be-"
Fade was a little impatient. He smacked his palm on the man's head and directly activated his divine soul.
He was just an ordinary person. The strength of his divine soul was so weak that he soon fell unconscious.
Soon, Fade finished probing his soul energy. His face darkened and he strode forward.
Gailo hurriedly followed up.
After passing through the stone room, they found that there were even more stone rooms inside.
They walked into one of the rooms, where there were all kinds of bottles and cans, as well as various herbs, ores, and other items. It was like a laboratory.
Moving forward, a restaurant, a lounge, and a bedroom appeared in front of them.
There was a layer of extra space under the church.
In these rooms, there were seven or eight men in the same robes. Before they could even speak, they were knocked out by Fade.
After passing through these rooms, a huge stone room appeared in front of them. The room was divided into small sections, where many young women were imprisoned. For the most part, they were all delicate and pretty.
In fact, in some of the small sections, there were men in long robes who were recklessly releasing their animalistic desires onto those young women.
"Is this the secret chamber where Twin River Church hosts private entertainment? I bet these girls were all lured here!" Gailo said angrily.
Fade did not say anything. He continued to move forward.
This time, they arrived in a slightly smaller stone room.
The room was divided into small sections as well. However, the people locked inside weren't young women, but children who couldn't be older than ten years old. There were boys and girls.
"Such young children. They're all..." Gailo's eyes were red, and his anger rose.
Fade did not say anything. He continued to go deeper.
When they got to the last door, they were blocked by a layer of light.
"It's another formation! There are secrets inside!" Gailo exclaimed.
Fade narrowed his eyes and struck out with his palm.
With a boom, the curtain of light was directly shattered.
Then, the strong smell of blood gushed out.
The horrible stench almost made Gailo vomit, and his face turned pale.
"Ugh-" Gailo mumbled and raised his head. "What on earth is this..."
However, before he could finish his words, he was stunned when he saw the scene inside the room.
His already furious gaze practically had flames blazing in it. The anger on his face immediately evolved into rage and resentment. His muscles trembled violently, and the joints on his right hand were clenched so hard they began cracking.
Gailo had never lost his cool so badly ever since he had reached such a high level of cultivation.
At that moment, however, he couldn't help it.
