"Go!" Peng Yan and his wife took advantage of Lin Xin's distraction and ran away, quickly disappearing into the distance of the passage.
Lin Xin turned around, waiting for people coming from the tunnel behind him, but he only heard a few faint collisions.
Boom!
Suddenly, the entire cave shook violently. He also nearly lost his balance, hurriedly bracing himself against the cave wall.
"What's happening!?" he said, his face tense, "Could it be a collapse?"
*********************
Deepest part of the cave
Inside a huge cavern stood a vast and imposing black palace.
The palace was filled with towering black columns, each carved with various finely detailed and fierce-looking beasts and insects.
In the center of the underground palace, a square was encircled by more than ten massive columns, each tens of meters high.
The square had smooth stone paving, and at its center stood a massive statue of a four-armed woman in black clothes.
