Long River Eternity

"How can it be black? I heard from my dad that during the test, everyone was in white light, but the brightness of the light was different?" A student whispered in confusion.

"I've heard that from my mother too, and you can see there are strange words on the stone," another student echoed.

"Quiet, everyone knows that Lin Ding has had a special physique since he was a child, but the reason has never been found. Maybe this is the reason. It may just be a strange disease. Don't make a fuss." Director Tang looked at Lin Ding deeply and said to everyone.

Then, Director Tang looked at the instrument panel on the screen and saw that the needle had stopped at the fourth small grid of the first large grid and stopped jumping. He said, "Gen level. Okay, Lin Ding, you can let go of your hands. Do you want to go up first?"

"I don't feel any discomfort and want to stay here." Lin Ding let go of his hand and said calmly

Director Tang nodded lightly and asked others to come up for testing.

Sure enough, when other people were tested, they all flashed white light without exception, and the pointers mostly stayed between Level E and Level C, with a small number of people at Level D.

Everyone has completed the test, and only Wang Qingshan and Wei Wu have reached Class A.

"The energy of the ruins is indeed rich. In just one hour, I broke through the bottleneck and reached Class A." Wang Qingshan said excitedly.

"Wei Wu is actually Class A?! He usually doesn't show off, so everyone thinks he's just Lin Ding's little follower." Some students whispered to the side.

"Yes, Class A is so low-key. If it were me, I would have shown off everywhere and everyone would know about it." Another student said enviously.

Wei Wu, however, stood aside, looking somewhat unhappy, muttering to himself, "It really is Class A. What should I do?"

"Okay, this coming-of-age ceremony is over. Now follow me and leave the ruins one by one." Director Tang shouted to everyone.

Seeing Wei Wu sulking in the corner, Lin Ding came over to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Just focus on your cultivation here. I'll help you take care of your grandma. Don't worry. Only by cultivating well can you better protect your family."

"You're right. I will definitely break through soon and return as soon as possible. You must also practice hard, otherwise you will be left further and further behind by me."

Wei Wu finally made up his mind to go into seclusion in the ruins.

"It's a deal!" Lin Ding was happy with Wei Wu's decision.

While the two were talking, half of the people had already left the room.

The two of them hurried forward and prepared to catch up with the main force.

Suddenly, the ground began to shake violently. In the blink of an eye, the pillars supporting the ceiling began to break, and mud continued to pour into the room through the cracks.

"There's an earthquake, run!" One of the students walking behind yelled, and the students who were originally frightened by the sudden earthquake and stood there in a daze quickly ran out.

Suddenly, several figures flew out from all around the room, came to the largest crack, gathered their energy, and deployed a protective shield above their heads to block the pouring soil and crumbling stones.

"Hurry up and leave!" one of them shouted to the students.

Director Tang was also at the front organizing the students to evacuate as quickly as possible.

"Hurry up!" Wei Wu grabbed Lin Ding and ran along the wall toward the passage. However, the shaking was too violent, and the two of them swayed from side to side, unable to run fast. In addition, they were far away from the passage to begin with, so they only managed to get a few steps.

The two men were so anxious that they didn't notice that a support nearby had broken and was falling towards them.

"Bang!" The support fell, hitting half of Wei Wu's body and head. Fortunately, Wei Wu was not pinned down, but only knocked him unconscious and flew towards Lin Ding. Wei Wu was half a head taller than Lin Ding and was muscular. He could take on two Lin Dings at once. Lin Ding was no match for Wei Wu's impact.

As a result, the two of them fell towards the wall and hit it hard. Lin Ding wanted to use his hand to cushion the impact, but as soon as his palm touched the wall, a flash of light appeared on the wall, and the original wall turned into a door.

The two men rushed towards the door together. Lin Ding hit his head hard against the wall inside the door, then fell heavily to the ground and fainted with Wei Wu.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Wu woke up first. It was pitch black all around him and he had no idea where he was.

Lin Ding rubbed his head which had just been hit, then fumbled around and found Lin Ding lying beside him.

Wei Wu shrank back at first, then thought it might be Lin Ding, so he pushed the person lying on the ground: "Lin Ding? Is that you?"

After being pushed a few times by Wei Wu, Lin Ding slowly woke up and said drowsily, "Ah, my head hurts. Where is this? It's so dark."

"Are you okay?" Wei Wu said happily when he heard that it was indeed Lin Ding.

"It's okay, I just hit my head when I fell down just now, and I feel a little dizzy." Lin Ding replied while rubbing his head.

"It's good that you're okay. It seems like the earthquake has already happened. We need to find a way to go back. Where are we?" Wei Wu thought that Lin Ding had taken him in to hide, so he asked.

In the darkness, Lin Dingxiang looked around and found no light source. He said, "I don't know either. After you were knocked down, you pushed me against the wall. There turned out to be a door there, and we fell in together. I hit the wall and passed out."

Wei Wu stood up and felt around the wall. Sure enough, they were at the same corner. He felt around both walls and pushed, but in the darkness, he couldn't tell which was the wall and which was the door. Besides, neither side was moving, so there was no sign of a door.

"We can't push either side, it seems we can't get out." Wei Wu said.

"Let's feel our way along the wall to see the other side," said Lin Ding.

"Okay, you hold my clothes and I'll walk in front."

Lin Ding touched Wei Wu's clothes, and Wei Wu walked forward with one hand on the wall. But after a few steps, he came to another corner.

"It's the corner again." Wei Wu said as he walked past the corner and continued forward.

This time I walked for a long time, but still didn't reach the end.

"It looks like this is a passage." Lin Ding imagined the terrain in his mind based on the road he had walked.

In this way, the two walked for about five minutes. Although they walked very slowly, they still walked about thirty or forty meters.

Suddenly, Wei Wu's hands, which were supporting the wall, felt loose, and he almost fell.

"What's wrong?" Lin Di asked, sensing something was wrong.

Wei Wu felt around carefully and found a corner, so he asked, "The wall is turning. Should we continue along the wall?"

"See if there is a turn here." Lin Ding gestured to Wei Wu to go to the other side of the passage to see if the wall here also turned.

When they reached the other side, they found that the wall on this side also turned. But the difference was that Lin Ding felt a protrusion on the wall on this side, and he pressed it tentatively.

Suddenly, a light flickered above my head, and after flashing a few times, it stabilized.

The sudden bright light made the two of them subconsciously cover their eyes.

After adapting for a while, the two looked around and found that the place they came to was indeed a long corridor, and what they touched just now was the light switch of the room.

Now the two of them are in a small room. The room is empty except for a door on the opposite wall and a small screen on the wall to the right of the door.

"Another door. Do you want to go in?" Wei Wu looked at Lin Ding and asked.

"The door is closed. Let's see if you can open it." He said as he walked to the door.

Lin Ding touched the door and found that he had no idea how to open it. There was not even a crack on the door.

Seeing that Lin Ding couldn't figure out the door, Wei Wu began to study the screen next to the door.

He pressed the screen with his finger, and the screen beeped twice and a red cross appeared.

Lin Ding was attracted by the sound of the screen, turned his head to look, and then subconsciously put his entire palm on the screen.

With a "ding" sound, the word "pass" appeared on the screen. Then, a vertical crack appeared in the middle of the iron door in front of him, and then it opened horizontally to both sides.

The two of them peeked inside and found another small room.

"Are we going in?" Wei Wu asked.

"Now we can only go in and take a look." Lin Ding said as he stepped into the room, and Wei Wu had no choice but to follow him in.

After both of them entered, the door closed again, and with a shake, the whole room moved downwards.

"We seem to be descending." Wei Wu said, feeling the touch under his feet.

"I feel like I've seen this scene before." Lin Ding said softly.

Wei Wu looked at Lin Ding helplessly and made up his mind to take Lin Ding to the hospital.

Half a minute later, there was another slight vibration, and the door of the room opened again. What came into the eyes of the two was a room twice as large as the ruins. As the door opened, a few scattered lights lit up on the towering roof, and a few flickered on and off, while the rest had long been shattered.

In the dim light, the scene in the room made Lin Ding's eyes widen instantly.
