It wasn't until five or six breaths later that Chen Hao and the others heard the sound coming up.
Moreover, the sound was extremely faint; if everyone hadn't strained their senses and listened intently, they probably wouldn't have noticed it.
After hearing this voice, Chen Hao did a quick mental calculation and arrived at an answer:
"This tunnel is about fifty feet deep."
"Fifty zhang?!" Upon hearing this answer, Yan Fei frowned: "If we jumped from that height, even you and I would probably die."
Fifty zhang is a drop of nearly two hundred meters!
Although everyone possessed lightness skills and internal energy to protect themselves, if they fell from this drop, probably none of them would survive.
After all, they are just martial artists now, not immortals or gods.
The impact of landing at a speed of over fifty meters per second is something few people can withstand.
Wanwan leaned down into the tunnel and guessed, "The sound we just heard sounded like something falling into the water."
Do you think there might be a pool of water down there?
"Even if there's a pool of water, you can't just try it!" Chen Hao rolled his eyes at Wanwan. "Wanwan, don't forget that this War God Temple is guarded by a demonic dragon!"
"Wanwan, are you planning to make us feed the dragon?"
"Eh~!!!" Wanwan exclaimed in shock, pointing at the dark tunnel, "Could it be that the demonic dragon you mentioned, Chenhao, is in the pool of water below this tunnel?"
"Yes!" Chen Hao nodded immediately in affirmation.

Chapter 225 The Fall, and the Lake in Front of the Temple of War
"Dragons?! There are actually dragons in this world?"
Upon hearing the information about the Demon Dragon, Ying Zheng looked at Chen Hao in disbelief.
"Young Master Shang, why be surprised!" Chen Hao turned to look at Ying Zheng and smiled, "This world had a glorious ancient period, so isn't it normal for dragons to exist there?"
"However, due to the decline of spiritual energy in the outside world, those once divine beasts and spirit beasts have either disappeared, perished, or degenerated into ordinary wild animals."
"Only in an environment like the Temple of War, which is a self-contained world, can such a path be preserved."
"Mr. Chen Hao, you've misunderstood me!" Ying Zheng shook his head, frowned, and asked incredulously, "What I mean is, the divine dragon actually exists, and isn't just something made up by others?"
"Oh?!" Chen Hao looked Ying Zheng up and down with a strange gaze, and asked with a bizarre expression, "Young Master Shang, don't you know?"
Although Ying Zheng felt somewhat uncomfortable under Chen Hao's gaze, he still asked the question that had been bothering him:
"What should I know?"
“Even now, our world still bears traces of dragons and various other strange beasts!” Chen Hao looked at Ying Zheng and pondered for a moment, then seemed to understand something: “However, most of these life forms live in remote, uninhabited areas, or rather, areas that are forbidden zones for humans, so they are mostly unknown to people.”
"Young Master Shang probably hasn't paid much attention to those legends and biographies, otherwise how would he know some clues about these mythical beasts?"
Ying Zheng was stunned: "...-.."
The knowledge that Ying Zheng was exposed to and learned from childhood was all about how to be a good emperor. He did not have a deep and genuine understanding of things related to legends and cultivation.
Or rather, among the people Ying Zheng came into contact with, very few would discuss these things with him.
"It seems I'll have to gather more information on this when I get back."
Coming to his senses, Ying Zheng couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Chen Hao ignored the silent Ying Zheng and said to the others, "I'll go down from here by myself. You guys wait for me up here."
"Be careful!" Yanfei said to Chen Hao with concern.
If anyone here could fall from a height of over 150 meters without getting hurt, it would only be the resourceful Chen Hao.
With the ability to shrink distances to an inch, such a short distance is child's play for Chen Hao.
Chen Hao nodded to the concerned Yan Fei, Jing Ni, Zi Nu, and Wan Wan, then left the lighting artifact beside Yan Fei before leaping into the tunnel.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~!
A gust of wind swept past Chen Hao's ears as he fell.
After three or four breaths, even without using the Candle Dragon Eye, Chen Hao could see the ground at the bottom and a giant net made of ropes about ten feet thick, suspended about ten feet above the ground.
Although he knew that the giant net might be a means to protect people who fall, Chen Hao did not test its safety. Instead, he used spatial teleportation in mid-air.
Phew~!
Chen Hao suddenly disappeared from mid-air, and when he reappeared, he was already standing below the giant net.
Chen Hao slowly surveyed his surroundings, centering his gaze on himself.
Chen Hao found himself in a huge, square-shaped hall. On the main wall of the hall was a star map covered with stars, and the other three walls were three heavy iron gates.
After careful observation, Chen Hao pushed open the door facing the star map.
Rumble rumble rumble~!
Before Chen Hao's eyes suddenly appeared a corridor that stretched downwards endlessly, like a shortcut to the underworld.
Chen Hao entered the corridor and walked down.
After walking for about ten minutes in this seemingly endless corridor, Chen Hao arrived at the end of the corridor.
Splash splash splash splash!
A turbulent waterfall cascades down from the sky, completely isolating it from the outside world. Under the sunlight shining through the gaps, the waterfall is stained blood red. The corridor seems to be the underground Yellow Springs, separating humans and ghosts, and inside the waterfall is a netherworld cave.
Chen Hao flashed through the waterfall and arrived in a vast and strange world.
Chen Hao, who was in mid-air, saw a large lake about 50 or 60 feet below, which looked like a boundless sea.
On the rock face as far as the eye can see, exotic flowers and plants bloom in vibrant colors. From the large crack in the rock face, clear springs gush forth, forming a long, cascading waterfall that stretches for over a hundred miles, roaring with a thunderous sound—a truly magnificent sight.
As Chen Hao fell through the air, he twisted his body to gather information about his surroundings.
Soon, one small island after another came into view.
The island is about five or six miles away from Chen Hao. The buildings on the island are huge, like another Yanxiang Palace.
Upon seeing this, Chen Hao didn't hesitate. He practiced spatial teleportation and shrinking the earth into an inch in mid-air and headed directly towards the island.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~!
In just a few breaths, Chen Hao suddenly appeared on the small island.
·· ······Requesting flowers···· ···
What appeared before Chen Hao was a thousand-tiered stone staircase. The back of the stone tortoise on one side of the staircase was covered with intricate symbols and patterns. At the end of the staircase was a magnificent and ingeniously crafted palace.
At the entrance of the main hall, the gate was wide open, and looking inside was like looking through a tube at a leopard, seemingly boundless. Above the entrance, there was a stone plaque with three large characters, about ten feet in size, that read "Hall of the God of War".
Seeing this, Chen Hao did not proceed further. Instead, he waved his hand and opened the portal to the cave to guide Yan Fei, Zi Nu, Jing Ni, Wan Wan, and the others.
...
Soon, the group waiting in the Yanxiang Palace passed through the cave entrance and arrived at Chen Hao's side.
"It's been too long!" Zi Nu complained to Chen Hao as soon as she passed through the golden spatial ripples, "Little Chen Hao, don't you understand that there are still people up there who are worried about you?"
. ..... ...
"It took you so long to open the door, we all thought you'd been eaten by a dragon."
(See "Watching Wasted Lu" +850296)
"Hahaha~~!" Chen Hao laughed awkwardly and immediately apologized, "Sorry! Sorry! Because the road ahead was a bit troublesome, I walked by myself for a while."
Don't do that again!
Yan Fei walked to Chen Hao's side, worriedly took his right hand, and asked strangely.
“That’s right!” Wanwan also leaned closer to Chen Hao, her eyes brimming with tears, and said, “In the future, Chen Hao, you should at least tell us in advance about these things, so we don’t worry.”
Seeing the affection between Chen Hao and the women, Han Fei and the others tactfully turned around and looked around.
Looking at the lake, which resembled a boundless sea, and surrounded by exotic flowers and plants, and feeling the gentle breeze blowing across the lake, Han Fei couldn't help but exclaim, "I never imagined that such a huge lake and waterfall were hidden beneath the original palace. It's truly incredible."
Wei Zhuang nodded:
"Although I knew that this space was self-contained and isolated from the outside world, I still found it hard to believe when I saw this scene."
Ying Zheng gazed greedily at everything before him and exclaimed:
"It truly lives up to its reputation as a legendary blessed land; it did not disappoint at all."
Just as everyone was captivated by the surrounding scenery, ripples suddenly appeared on the lake not far away.
"Wa ...
Then, one after another, grotesque fish with ferocious heads, green hair, and human heads and fish bodies leaped out of the water, opened their blood-red mouths, let out strange cries, and pounced on the crowd.
