Young Master, Don't Run!
Mysterious Grasslands

The village chief took the three men somewhere. Gin followed him secretly. He activated his sneak skill so that no one knew of its existence. Although those three black robes were high-level cultivators.

Gin really felt curious about the 'stone' they were talking about.

The village chief and the three black-robed people moved out of the village. In the forest around the village, there was a giant tree. The village head pressed on something and suddenly the ground in front of the tree moved. Then the stairs automatically appear. The stairs lead underground. The four of them went straight inside.

Gin came in when he made sure all four had gone down the stairs far enough. When Gin enters, the ground above him automatically moves and closes back up.

Gin went down the stairs one by one without any sound. He kept his movements while eavesdropping on the talks of the other four people remotely.

Surprisingly, Gin thought that this underground staircase would continue to point downwards. But that's not true. The stairs are winding and Gin also occasionally passes through a short tunnel, which makes him have to walk straight. Then he had to climb up the winding stairs.

They had all been underground for an hour. Until they finally arrived at their destination. Gin climbed the underground stairs and he saw a speck of light on the surface.

As he ascended, a dazzling light instantly struck his eyes. Gin immediately pulled out his phone to look at the clock. It's still two in the morning, but this place is so bright. Gin was completely confused by this state of affairs.

He looked around and found that this area was a vast meadow. There was only one very conspicuous tree in this vast meadow. The village chief and the black robes headed there.

Gin's headed there, too. To this extent no one was aware of its existence at all. Although logically the figure is very easy to see because there is only grass, there are no trees and houses that cover it as before.

"This is the place where the stone is located" said the village chief. He scavenged the ground under the tree, then he took out a green stone as big as a pearl. The stone had an irregular shape like a pebble.

The village chief directly threw the green stone at the figure of the shortest black robe. It is clearly seen that the short figure is the leader, because the figure always makes decisions. While the other two figures looked like his subordinates or bodyguards.

He scanned the stone carefully between his fingers. "It's genuine" he said later and stuffed the stone into his pocket.

As Gin looked at the green pebble, suddenly an inscription appeared before him.

Gin had no idea why this thing always appeared randomly. But he remembered, the moment this thing appeared, he would meet with other magical beasts.

But there were no signs of the existence of any magical beasts at all in this place.

"This place is very strange. I can't see the far away area. I can only use my power a few meters away from where we stand now. But when I tried to look further, I just saw darkness." One of the black robes suddenly said.

He had a 'god's eye' cultivation technique that allowed him to see within a few kilometers away. But he could not see anything remotely while he was in this place.

The two black robes did not respond and merely frowned.

"What is this place?" ask the short figure to the village chief.

"I don't know" the village chief replied quickly. He started telling me that he found this place by chance when he wanted to hunt. Then he found the green pebble and was fascinated by it. In an instant he knew that the pebble was a precious thing.

Bad luck came and befell their village. So he spread the information about the pebble to the outside world. He planned to barter between the medicine and this foreign pebble. And coincidentally, the three black robes received information about the stone and they managed to barter.

After hearing the village chief's story, the two remaining black robes tried to use their skills to observe this place. Then the two of them turned their heads in shock, as they really could not see anything.

The shorter figure flew quickly to the side. He wanted to explore this place. But after a few minutes, he saw the same people standing in front of him. He thought he had flown away, but it turned out that he had returned to the same place again. It was as if they were just flying around in the same place.

Everyone looked at him with a puzzled look as they looked back from behind.

"We got it. Let's get out of this place" said the short figure. He felt strange and a little worried. They should leave this place and check it out later.

But suddenly, they had not had time to leave, the ground beneath them shook violently.
