Chapter 591: Dungeon Guardian Boss

"Just let them go?" Lu HaiKong asked as he turned to look at Zhang Yan after the Yellow Turban Saintess and her companions had left. If Zhang Yan had intervened earlier, they could have stopped them.
"We can't stop them. Even if we gave it our all, that woman would still escape in the end. Don't be fooled by her fearful expression earlier; she's not as simple as she seems!"
"Forget it. Let them go. It's your business anyway. Now that we've been exposed, the encirclement and suppression forces will arrive soon. Let's take this opportunity to retrieve the Peaceful Heavenly Scripture and the Heaven-Altering Life-Changing Pill while we still have some time." Lu HaiKong casually slung an axe of Superior Grade over his shoulder.
Zhang Yan nodded, and the two of them proceeded deeper into the Tranquility Dao Temple.
It was evident that Zhang Yan had visited the Yellow Turban Temple more than once, as she was very familiar with the surroundings.
Under her guidance, even though the temple had detected intruders and was conducting a thorough search, Lu HaiKong's path remained unobstructed, and they encountered almost no resistance.
After half an hour, they reached the deepest part of the Yellow Turban Temple.
The deepest part of the temple was a gateway engraved with various mysterious talismans, similar to the one in Lu HaiKong's territory dungeon.
When Lu HaiKong saw this gateway, he focused his gaze, and the attributes of the gateway became clear to him.
Realm of Heavenly Peace
Dungeon Level: ???
Dungeon Description: This is a special dungeon created by Zhang Jiao of the Dao of Heavenly Peace, who spent three years and vast resources to establish it for the worship of the Peaceful Heavenly Scripture.
This is a unique dungeon, and death within will result in actual death.
Entry Requirement: Single Attribute above 80
"Is this the place? Let's go in!" Lu HaiKong raised his axe and was about to charge in.
Zhang Yan hesitated but eventually nodded and followed Lu HaiKong into the Realm of Heavenly Peace.
What surprised both Lu HaiKong and Zhang Yan was that this so-called Realm of Heavenly Peace was actually the Tranquility Dao Temple itself!
As they entered the realm, they found themselves back outside the Dao Temple. The momentary displacement startled them, and they would have thought something had gone wrong if not for the system notification.
Just as they were regaining their bearings, a large number of Yellow Turban Warriors surged towards them from all directions.
It was clear that the security within the realm was much tighter than outside. Lu HaiKong observed that these warriors had Strength above 50, and there were also several leaders with Strength above 60 among the hundreds of them.
"Can you keep up with me?" Lu HaiKong asked Zhang Yan as he raised his axe.
"Normally, I could, but in this situation, I'm afraid I might lose you at any moment!"
"Don't worry, you won't get left behind."
Before Zhang Yan could understand what Lu HaiKong meant, he reached out, lifted her into his arms, and with a swing of his battle axe, they charged into the midst of the Yellow Turban Warriors.
With Lu HaiKong's formidable Strength of 90, even carrying Zhang Yan, he effortlessly carved through the crowd of warriors.
Lu HaiKong did not linger in combat, instead rushing forward with Zhang Yan in his arms. In a matter of minutes, they broke through the encirclement of warriors.
After escaping the warriors' camp, Lu HaiKong quickly found a relatively safe spot within the temple and set Zhang Yan down.
It must be said that although Zhang Yan has some character flaws, her beauty and figure are impeccable.
However, when Lu Haikong embraced her, he didn't blush or feel excited, which was unusual for a man holding a beautiful woman.
That wasn't a problem, but Lu Haikong's words when he let go of Zhang Yan were a bit tactless.
"Look, she's clinging to you so tightly. By the way, when you have time after returning, try to lose some weight. I didn't realize you were so fat until I held you."
In response, Zhang Yan didn't say a word. She glared at Lu Haikong and turned to walk deeper into the Tranquility Dao Temple.
Perhaps it was because Lu Haikong had suddenly embraced her, but Zhang Yan became much quieter for the next period. She didn't engage in any conversation with Lu Haikong, keeping her head down and hurrying along. Even when Lu Haikong occasionally asked her a question, she ignored him.
This was the first time Lu Haikong had seen Zhang Yan behave this way.
However, Lu Haikong didn't seem to mind. The current situation wasn't ideal, as their presence had already been exposed. It was possible that people outside were already gathering to confront them, so time was of the essence. He could only focus on clearing this dungeon as quickly as possible.
In the 16th chapter of the 19th book, there was a mistake in the version!
Given the situation, since Zhang Yan said she couldn't keep up, to prevent getting separated, Lu Haikong had to resort to this move.
As if fearing that Lu Haikong might do it again, Zhang Yan became even more cautious in guiding him forward.
With their familiarity with the Tranquility Dao Temple, they managed to walk for nearly half an hour without encountering the grand scenes they had experienced when they first entered the dungeon.
During this half-hour, Zhang Yan and Lu Haikong noticed that the Tranquility Dao Temple inside the dungeon was significantly different from the one outside.
The temple inside the dungeon was much larger than the one outside, and there were subtle differences in the environment and security measures.
Several times, Zhang Yan almost led them into trouble, but fortunately, she seemed to have an endless supply of talismans on her.
With the help of her talismans and Lu Haikong's formidable strength, they managed to navigate through the dungeon with some close calls.
However, after walking for half an hour, they were still in the outer area of the Tranquility Dao Temple.
It should be known that the Tranquility Dao Temple is divided into inner and outer layers, and the chamber housing the Peaceful Heavenly Scripture is located in the inner layer. Being in the outer layer meant they still had half the journey ahead of them.
At this point, the two walked for another ten minutes and finally reached the boundary between the inner and outer layers.
The boundary between the inner and outer layers was marked by a circular wall. Outside the dungeon, this wall was only a little over two meters high, but when Lu Haikong and Zhang Yan arrived, they found that the wall inside the dungeon was at least fifteen meters tall, making it impossible for them to climb over.
Who knows how such a wall was constructed? It was less than twenty centimeters thick, over fifteen meters tall, and had an astonishing defense.
The two had no choice but to go around to the only gate in the wall. When they reached the gate, they saw a Yellow Turban Divine General in golden armor, standing guard. He was over fifteen meters tall.
"Well, we've encountered the dungeon guardian boss."
