“We are here.” Fang Yuan looked around him and gave a satisfied nod.
“Where is this?” Hei Lou Lan came out of Fang Yuan’s immortal aperture.
The two had used Fixed Immortal Travel to escape Starry Sky grotto-heaven and arrive at this ce.
Hei Lou Lan looked around her and guessed this was either an underground cavern or inside a hollow mountain. The light was sparse, causing the ce to be dark and gloomy, there were jagged rocks and the moisture in the air was very high, however it was quite spacious.
“This ce is Earth Abyss.” Fang Yuan lightly replied.
“Earth Abyss?” Hei Lou Lan looked at Fang Yuan with an astonished gaze.
She was not unfamiliar with Central Continent, and knew that this Earth Abyss was located in the far west of Central Continent, and was an iparablyrge underground world.
Earth Abyss was divided into tens ofyers with everyyer being at least hundreds of thousands of square kilometers in size. The space was extremelyrge and the underground world was deep and secluded. There were all sorts of caves and tunnels, some were likebyrinths, some had giant undergroundkes while some had t ground.
Earth Abyss was home to untold number of living organisms, it was full of vitality, the unique ecology was clearly different from the surface.
“Truly a great ce, the earth qi is dense in Earth Abyss and will greatly reduce the time for the blessednd to fall.”
Hei Lou Lan nodded then changed the subject: “But the main headquarters of Ancient Soul Sect is in Earth Abyss. Ancient Soul Sect is one of the ten great ancient sects, it is like a colossal beast that has held dominance over the far west for thousands of years. They have upied Earth Abyss and treat it as their own exclusive domain. If you want the blessednd to fall here, it is like nting flowers in another person’s backyard, aren’t you afraid of being found?”
Fang Yuanughed: “Don’t worry, the depths of Earth Abyss are extremely secluded, Ancient Soul Sect has spent thousands of years but has only explored no more than eighteenyers fully, with some brief explorations up to the twenty-seventhyer. From the twenty-eight to thirty-sixthyers, only Ancient Soul Sect’s Gu Immortals roam about asionally. As long as we nt the blessednd below the fortiethyer, we do not need to be concerned about being discovered even if we make argemotion.”
“Fortiethyer? I remember the exploration of Earth Abyss done by Ancient Soul Sect only found thirty-sixyers?” Hei Lou Lan was astonished.
Fang Yuan snickered: “That is because they are ipetent, the depth of Earth Abyss surpasses people’s imaginations. How could it stop at thirty-sixyers?”
As he said this, he recalled his previous life.
In his previous life, when Fang Yuan was rank five, endless beast tides emerged from Earth Abyss, attacking the surface and bringing disaster to Central Continent.
Ancient Soul Sect suffered the brunt of their attack, suffering such disastrous losses that their foundation was damaged.
After the beast tides charged out of Earth Abyss, they constantly drove out beast groups on Central Continent’s surface and gradually formed into an unprecedented, terrifying beast tide that spread over the whole of Central Continent.
In those years, there was great misery and suffering in Central Continent, countless small sects were destroyed like stones in the path of a flood.
The ten great ancient sects organized groups of experts and rushed everywhere to destroy the beast tide.
They spent several years before they were finally able to eradicate the beast tide from the surface. Afterwards, both righteous and demonic path Gu Masters moved together inside Earth Abyss.
Fang Yuan also entered Earth Abyss together with others and killed wild beasts, obtaining resources for his cultivation.
They purgedyers afteryers, and entered deeper and deeper. After entering the thirty-sixthyer, Gu Masters discovered a new passage.
Further down was an evenrger underground world with territories of countless beast groups, deste beasts and ancient deste beasts. It was and filled with dangers everywhere.
Even when Fang Yuan had self-detonated, the exploration of the Earth Abyss had not finished. They had only discovered there were one hundred and sevenyers.
Ancient Soul Sect currently upied thirty-sixyers, which was just the portion that was closest to the surface.
Fang Yuan naturally would not speak of these details to Hei Lou Lan, he only said: “Just follow me.”
Hei Lou Lan saw Fang Yuan’s confident appearance and followed him deeper into Earth Abyss.
The ce they had appeared was the eighthyer. And as they moved down, they saw many of Ancient Soul Sect’s Gu Masters. These Gu Masters mostly were in groups, some were hunting wild beasts while some were gathering underground moss.
The deeper they went, the fewer the number of Gu Masters they saw while the cultivations of the Gu Masters increased correspondingly.
From rank two Gu Masters at the start to rank three to rank four.
How could these mortals have the ability to detect Fang Yuan and Hei Lou Lan’s traces? Even if they brushed past some Gu Masters in a narrow path, these mortals would not have been able to sense anything.
When they reached the thirtiethyer, they no longer saw mortal Gu Masters. It was a scene of darkness which greatly restricted vision, but fortunately, Fang Yuan and Hei Lou Lan were Gu Immortals, they had all sorts of investigative Gu.
At the thirty-fifthyer, one of Ancient Soul Sect’s rank six Gu Immortals was being chased miserably by an ancient deste beast and four deste beasts.
This Gu Immortal had helped Fang Yuan, he and Hei Lou Lan were able to smoothly pass through the deste beasts’ camps and enter the thirty-sixthyer.
Here, Fang Yuan walked to the key area ording to his previous life’s memory.
After setting up six Gu formations, Fang Yuan pointed below his feet and said to Hei Lou Lan: “My attack power is not enough, it is better if you activate your Immortal Gu and attack this muddy ground.”
Hei Lou Lan followed Fang Yuan’s instruction, she transformed into a strength path phantom giant and punched heavily at the muddy ground three times.
Mud and stones spattered, but could not ssh out of the Gu formations. Thunderous sounds echoed, but outside the Gu formations, it was a scene of tranquil silence.
The muddy ground was notpletely smashed and only formed a crater that reached seventy to eighty feet.
“Continue, quickly!” Fang Yuan urged before jumping inside.
Hei Lou Lan took a deep breath and jumped inside, punching rapidly.
Under these continuous bombardments, the giant crater deepened further and after thousands of feet, it finally broke openpletely, forming a hole.
Fang Yuan and Hei Lou Lan entered this hole to the thirty-seventhyer.
Hei Lou Lan was covered with sweat. She raised her head and saw that the hole was rapidly being restored under the effect of the Gu formations.
“That was the thinnest area in the thirty-sixthyer. Even so, it was nearly ten thousand feet thick.”‘ Fang Yuan exined.
“How did you discover this ce?” Hei Lou Lan was filled with doubts.
Fang Yuan snickered. Due to the Snowy Mountain Alliance, he could not lie but could choose to not speak.
Hei Lou Lan saw Fang Yuan’s silence and snorted, but did not pursue it.
The thirty-seventhyer was filled with much more danger. After all, this ce waspletely in its raw state, Fang Yuan and Hei Lou Lan could be said to be among the first outsiders to explore it.
When the two finally reached the fortiethyer, the seal on Star Lord Wan Xiang finally reached its time limit.
“Your estimate was really urate.” Hei Lou Lan ced Star Lord Wan Xiang’s corpse on the ground and gazed at Fang Yuan deeply.
At Fang Yuan’s will, hundreds of mortal Gu flew out from Star Lord Wan Xiang’s body like a swarm of locusts, they buzzed as they flew into Fang Yuan’s immortal aperture.
Without theyer of suppression, Star Lord Wan Xiang’s body gradually let out bright starlight.
The starlight became brighter and brighter, at the same time, the ground started to tremor.
Several breathster, vast amounts of earth qi emerged likeyers of dust umting on the ground.
The starlight stabilized, the piercing radiance wasparable to the sun during a summer afternoon.
A formless suction force suddenly erupted which started to absorb the surrounding earth qi. Fang Yuan and Hei Lou Lan had already retreated far away from the starlight.
“What is going on?”
“It is an earthquake, another earthquake!”
“Leave, the earthquake this time is quite strong, if we don’t leave now we might be buried alive.”
The Gu Masters in Earth Abyss scurried off like rats, shouting in panic as they ran as fast as they could out of Earth Abyss.
They did not feel this was strange.
The structure of Earth Abyss was not stable and there would asionally be earthquakes or copse of ces within. It was because of this as well that Ancient Soul Sect did not spend a lot of energy to carry out explorations, even though they were in control of this ce.
Large amounts of stones fell down from above, even more dangerous were those sharp stctites that could pierce through rank three defensive Gu if they struck.
In fact, not only the Gu Masters, the numerous living beings in Earth Abyss were also in misery. Many were crushed to death by the falling stones, while others were buried alive.
To ce the blessednd, Fang Yuan had brought about the death of at least a hundred thousand or more lives.
After five minutes of time, the starlight slowly stopped absorbing earth qi, and formed arge square door. Therge door waspletely constructed from starlight and was hovering in the air. There was a que on top of the door where four words were written – Star Form Blessed Land.
Hei Lou Lan let out a breath of cloudy air: “We finally seeded, it seems our luck is not bad. Themotion was huge, but it did not lead to an attack from the wild beasts in this ce.”
“Let’s go.” Fang Yuan took the lead and opened the starry entrance.
Hei Lou Lan followed closely behind. The two entered Star Form blessednd.
It was as if it waste at night in here, the sky was pitch ck and filled with stars.
The dazzling starlight shone on the ground of the blessednd, the visibility was high and it was not dark.
The whole of Star Form blessednd’s terrain was like a giant basin. In the center were upwards sloping grounds while at the edge of the blessednd were continuous mountain ranges, as if forming a circr wall.
“So much star fragment grass!” Fang Yuan looked at the ground, the grass underneath him here actually entirely consisted of star fragment grass.
Star fragment grass clearly required to be nted on cloud soil, but this star fragment grass was directly nted on the ck muddy ground, yet their growth was in a much better state than the ones Fang Yuan nted in Hu Immortal blessednd.
Fang Yuan sighed with praise: “This is the benefit of having a star path blessednd, growing the rted nts is not only easier, but also guarantees harvest.”
Hei Lou Lan’s gaze was, however, attracted to the spinefin star dragonfish that were leisurely flying in the night sky.
She could only see three spinefin star dragonfish.
These giant dragon fish were about the size of a whale, but had the shape of a carp. There were bones protruding out of their backs that extended outwards.
Their scales were blue in color, their eyes were asrge as carts, with some starry radiance in them.
However, under the keen observation of Fang Yuan and Hei Lou Lan, they quickly discovered some traces of battle. Not far away,rge patches of plotted grass were in mes with ck smoke rising up. The three spinefin star dragonfish had injuries on their body. At the far end of their sight, those continuous mountain ranges also showed unnatural holes, like cheese that was nibbled at by rats.
“It seems that this Gu Immortal had been in a fierce battle.” Fang Yuan said.
“Right, if not for my main body being heavily injured by Song Zi Xing, suffering hidden injuries to both the physical body and soul, how could my grand main body, Star Lord Wan Xiang, perish inside the eighth star hall?” A boy suddenly appeared before Fang Yuan and Hei Lou Lan.
His appearance was as if he was carved from jade. He was wearing pinkish blue clothes wrapped around his chest and stomach, his small arms and legs were tender white like lotus roots. He was hovering in the air, his small cheeks puffing in anger.
