At the same time—
Several 10,000 li east of the God Burial Abyss, 2 gigantic spirit boats measuring 300 zhang long hovered motionlessly in the sky.
On the 1st spirit boat, all 913 disciples of the Eternal Immortal Sect stood behind Ruyan Chen with solemn expressions.
Meanwhile, on the 2nd spirit boat, the 1,970 disciples of the Divine Spirit Immortal Palace stood silently in formation.
Nangong Yuqin stood gracefully at the very front of the ship.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the “Myriad-Li Void Mirror” floating above them.
This was a mid-grade semi-saint artifact!
Once activated, it could pierce through space itself and reflect scenes occurring thousands of li away!
Before the trial began, Zhuge Yu had entrusted this mirror to Nangong Yuqin in case of emergencies.
Through the mirror, everyone could clearly see the entrance region of the God Burial Abyss.
As for why they chose to remain several thousand li away—
It was to avoid unexpected danger.
If a terrifying demon beast truly lurked inside the abyss, they would still have enough time to retreat!
…
At the same time—
Inside the God Burial Abyss.
“Rustle… rustle…”
Within the dense black mist, faint footsteps slowly entered the ears of Tan Yun and the others hiding inside the crevice.
Tan Yun silently wrote on the stone wall with his finger:
“Do not attack without my order!”
After seeing the message, everyone quietly nodded.
They were getting closer.
Closer and closer!
From the sound of the footsteps, Tan Yun could sense that—
2 enemies had stopped less than 10 zhang away from the crevice where he was hiding!
“Primordial Divine Eyes!”
Tan Yun’s deep eyes, vast as the cosmos itself, suddenly emitted a strange crimson glow.
Yet he remained concealed within the crevice without revealing himself.
At that moment—
2 Eternal Immortal Sect disciples, 1 tall and 1 short, stared toward the crevice roughly 10 zhang away.
The pair exchanged wary glances before gripping attack talismans in their left hands and tightly clutching long swords in their right hands.
Then, they leaped into the air above the crevice!
But the instant they saw the people inside—
Tan Yun suddenly raised his head!
His strange crimson eyes locked directly onto theirs!
In an instant, both men froze in place, their expressions turning blank with shock.
Then Tan Yun’s lips moved slightly as a soft voice entered their ears.
“Come down.”
“Whoosh!”
The 2 disciples descended into the crevice before obediently standing in front of Tan Yun.
The scene left Huangfu Tingfeng, Lu Ren, and the others utterly stunned!
Tan Yun raised a hand, signaling everyone to remain silent.
To prevent the enemies outside from noticing anything, he wrote upon the stone floor with his finger:
“Write down the purpose of your visit here.”
Immediately, both men quickly began carving words into the stone with their fingers.
Although their handwriting differed, the meaning was exactly the same.
They revealed that—
Together with another 40 people, they had been ordered by the “Holy Princess” and “Young Master Ruyan” to investigate the God Burial Abyss.
As for Nangong Yuqin and Ruyan Chen, they were currently stationed thousands of li away in the sky, using the Myriad-Li Void Mirror to observe the entrance of the abyss.
A cold smile slowly curved across Tan Yun’s lips.
Then he immediately wrote another message:
“After this, return and report to Nangong Yuqin and Ruyan Chen that there is nothing unusual here.”
“However, inside the God Burial Abyss, you discovered many corpses belonging to Huangfu Sacred Sect disciples.”
“You also found traces of gigantic footprints belonging to an unknown monster.”
“In addition, there were pools of blood that clearly did not belong to humans.”
“It is highly likely that a powerful demon beast slaughtered the disciples of the Divine Spirit Immortal Palace, the Eternal Immortal Sect, and the Huangfu Sacred Sect before fleeing while heavily injured.”
“Alright. You may go now.”
“One more thing. After half a month, your original memories will return.”
“But you will completely forget everything that happened here today.”
The 2 disciples obediently nodded.
Then they jumped out of the crevice and continued deeper into the abyss together with the other 18 people, advancing farther into the 20-li-wide canyon.
Within their subconscious minds, everything Tan Yun had just told them felt as though they had personally witnessed it with their own eyes!
…
Half an hour later—
All 20 people flew out of the God Burial Abyss atop their flying swords.
The other 20 waiting outside immediately asked,
“How was it? Did you find anything?”
“We found nothing.”
18 of them shook their heads.
At that moment, however, the 2 Eternal Immortal Sect disciples—1 tall and 1 short—suddenly revealed terrified expressions as they hurriedly spoke,
“We discovered something unusual!”
“Everyone, quickly follow us to report to Young Master and the Holy Princess!”
As soon as they finished speaking, all 40 disciples mounted their flying swords and transformed into streaks of light, disappearing above the entrance of the God Burial Abyss.
After the 40 people had completely departed—
Everyone hidden within the crevice instantly understood—
Tan Yun had cultivated some kind of eye technique capable of controlling the minds of others!
At that moment, Tan Yun looked toward Mu Mengji and the others, his eyes flashing with vicious light as he coldly declared,
“Everyone, from this point onward, there’s a high chance Nangong Yuqin and Ruyan Chen will personally come here.”
“If they do…”
“Follow my commands!”
“Kill as many as possible!”
Hearing this, everyone tightly gripped their weapons as killing intent surged from their bodies!
Of course—
The reason they possessed such confidence despite the overwhelming danger was because they had the “Golden Divine Dragon Lion” on their side!
…
Another half hour later—
All 40 disciples stood atop flying swords above the 2 spirit boats.
Ruyan Chen was the first to ask immediately,
“Well? Did you discover anything?”
Nangong Yuqin and the others also fixed their eyes upon the 40 disciples.
The tall Eternal Immortal Sect disciple, Han Zhifei, hurriedly cupped his fists respectfully.
“Young Master, we found clues!”
“Speak!”
“Yes, sir!”
Han Zhifei respectfully replied,
“When Jiang Lun and I advanced more than 20 li deep into the God Burial Abyss, we discovered over 200 corpses belonging to Huangfu Sacred Sect disciples.”
“In addition, we also found pools of demon beast blood.”
“I suspect the same demon beast that slaughtered the Huangfu Sacred Sect disciples is also responsible for killing the more than 1,000 disciples from our sect and the Divine Spirit Immortal Palace.”
“And now, that demon beast has likely fled while heavily injured!”
At that moment, the short disciple Jiang Lun hurriedly added with certainty,
“Young Master, everything Senior Brother Han said is true!”
“What should we do next?”
Ruyan Chen raised a hand to stop the 2 from continuing before turning toward Nangong Yuqin on the other spirit boat, killing intent flickering within his eyes.
“Holy Princess.”
“That beast slaughtered so many of our people.”
“And now it’s injured.”
“In that case, why don’t we search for treasures inside the abyss while simultaneously hunting down that demon beast?”
Hearing this, Nangong Yuqin quietly pondered.
Since that demon beast had managed to kill so many people while also sustaining injuries itself, its cultivation realm probably wasn’t overwhelmingly high.
Thinking of this, she lightly nodded.
“Very well.”
“Since we now know the cause, we can proceed into the abyss.”
Ruyan Chen smiled faintly before politely saying,
“Holy Princess, my spirit boat is a mid-grade semi-saint artifact personally forged by my father.”
“Furthermore, it contains both offensive and defensive formations.”
“For safety’s sake, why don’t all of you board my ship instead?”
Since the safety of the Divine Spirit Immortal Palace disciples was involved, Nangong Yuqin slightly cupped her hands.
“Then we’ll trouble Young Master Ruyan.”
“You’re too polite, Holy Princess.”
Ruyan Chen smiled while gesturing elegantly.
“Please.”
After Nangong Yuqin and all the Divine Spirit Immortal Palace disciples boarded Ruyan Chen’s spirit boat—
Ruyan Chen immediately began steering the massive vessel toward the God Burial Abyss located several 10,000 li away!
…
After 2 ke—
God Burial Abyss!
Tan Yun stared at the gigantic spirit boat carrying more than 2,000 people as it rapidly approached with overwhelming momentum.
A cold smile slowly spread across his lips.
Huangfu Tingfeng, Lu Ren, Jun Buping, Shangguan Bingbing, Mu Mengji, and Xue Ziyan—
The eyes of all 6 top experts overflowed with surging killing intent!
In contrast, the 19 Weapon Refining disciples, the 15 Formation disciples, and the 10 Talisman disciples all showed traces of fear.
After all, the enemy numbered more than 2,000 people!
But at this moment—
Tan Yun had already successfully lured the enemy into his trap!
And the decisive battle…
Was finally about to begin!
