After seeing this stone staircase, Chen Ziyan's last worry was put to rest.

As long as this stone staircase is there, even if an accident really happens, he will not be trapped underneath.

As the rope descended, Chen Ziyan and the others soon landed next to the jade stele, which was on the stone platform.

Although most of the area was occupied by the jade stele, the remaining space on the stone platform was very limited, but it was enough for the three of them to stay.

Holding the jade stele beside him, Chen Ziyan raised the searchlight and looked around, taking in the surrounding environment.

When I was observing through the cave entrance just now, not only was there a distance limit, but the field of vision was also greatly restricted, so the perspective was not comprehensive.

Now that he's down, Chen Ziyan naturally has to observe carefully.

Soon, he found a man-made cave on the side of the rock wall.

The stone steps built along the rock wall finally end at this cave.

Obviously, if you walk down the stone steps, the cave will be the real destination.

However, Chen Ziyan didn't care much about these, because he knew very well that this was indeed not an ordinary road. Compared with this, he was more concerned about the function of this cave.

As for why he was so sure that the cave was man-made, it was because he could clearly see the flat and smooth cave wall through the beam of the searchlight.

It was difficult for Chen Ziyan to find a second explanation for this level of smoothness, except that it was caused by human intervention.

After roughly estimating the distance between himself and the cave, Chen Ziyan felt that he could easily swing over with the help of the rope on his body.

He estimated that the distance was about ten meters, and it would be easy to swing over with a rope.

As for the option of swimming into the water, Chen Ziyan had never considered it at all. It was not that he had not tried to explore the situation underwater.

But I don’t know if it’s a problem with the water or the bottom of the pool, but the beam of the searchlight couldn’t penetrate the water at all, as if it was being swallowed up directly.

There is no doubt that this is obviously problematic.

How could he be so stupid as to jump into the water without knowing the situation?
Not to mention that the distance of ten meters was reached in an instant, Chen Ziyan knew very well that if the water was really dangerous, it would only be measured in seconds, and he did not want to take the risk.

Anyway, the method of swinging over is not difficult to implement, so why take unknown risks?

When Chen Ziyan expressed his idea, the two guys next to him immediately expressed their agreement.

The two of them were not stupid. They knew that if they really went into the water, Chen Ziyan would not be the first to go, and they would be the ones in real danger then.

Now that there is a safer way, I would naturally support it with both hands and feet.

As for the fact that doing this would make it harder for the other guys above, the two said that it was nothing, and for the sake of their lives' safety, they could only cry for their brothers.

Chen Ziyan told them that it was just a process, and when he saw that the two had no objection, he told the people who stayed behind about his idea.

This place is only a dozen meters away from above, and we can communicate by just raising the volume a little, so the conversation was completed quickly.

The process of swinging to the cave was very smooth. Not only did Chen Ziyan say something, but the two guys were also very agile, and with the help of the others above, they landed on the edge of the cave very smoothly.

After entering the cave, Chen Ziyan discovered that the cave was not quite what he had imagined. The main problem lay at the bottom of the cave.

He just looked over from the stone platform and could only see the edge of the cave. He couldn't see the specific situation inside, so he didn't know that there was no ground inside.

It can't be said that there is no ground, but there is no ground in the center of the cave, directly exposing the deep pool below. A small dock?

Looking at the gap in front of him, Chen Ziyan thought of this possibility.

But he gave up the idea the next second because it was unreasonable. If it was a dock, there should be another exit in this space.

But he had just looked around and found that there were no other exits on the surrounding rock walls except this cave, so this should not be the dock.

After all, it can’t be for boating in the pool outside, right?

The pool is about 20 meters in diameter, and even the smallest fishing boat cannot navigate it.

So the real exit is in the water?

After thinking about it, Chen Ziyan felt that the layout in the cave should be some kind of hint.

He did not forget the purpose of his coming down, which was to find the way to the underground space.

When he first discovered the cave, he thought this was the exit, but after entering, he found that it was not, so the only way he had to find was in the water.

Looks like we still have to get into the water!

After sighing silently in his heart, Chen Ziyan looked at the water at his feet again.

Chen Ziyan is not the kind of person who hesitates. Since there is no other way now, even if he knows that there may be danger underwater, he has to go down to find out.

He is cautious when he should be cautious, but he will not hesitate to take risks when he needs to.

Fortunately, before coming down, Chen Ziyan had already changed into a diving suit in advance, considering the possibility of water entering, otherwise he would have to go up again.

After making the decision, Chen Ziyan began to make arrangements for it.

Although we cannot be timid, it is always a good idea to make more preparations for it.

In fact, there is nothing to prepare. It’s just a matter of communicating with the guys above and asking them to pull them up directly when they notice something is wrong.

As for other aspects, it all depends on how they adapt to the situation.

After everything was ready, Chen Ziyan jumped into the water first. He looked at the two men who came down with him and followed him helplessly.

They thought they didn't need to go into the water, but they didn't expect they still couldn't escape.

After entering the water, Chen Ziyan immediately became alert and looked around through his helmet and the portable searchlight on his shoulder.

Although the lighting range of a portable searchlight is not as good as that of a handheld searchlight, it is still enough to illuminate a few meters around you.

After looking around and finding nothing, Chen Ziyan breathed a sigh of relief.

What he was most worried about was encountering an unknown attack as soon as he entered the water. In that case, it would be difficult for him to obtain useful information.

At this time, the two guys also entered the water, and the three of them immediately joined together, protecting each other and swam towards the center of the pool.

This was the plan Chen Ziyan had made before going into the water, because he felt that instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, it would be better to start the exploration from the stone platform.

If this pool is also part of the Qimen Dunjia formation, then the stone platform is definitely not a useless decoration. Even if it is not the key to leaving, it can definitely provide some effective information. (End of this chapter)
