The blood-colored boat stopped before Liu Zongyang’s group, and 5 people flew out from the boat. They were the browless old demon, the chubby young demon, and the others from the Kong Xiang Family.
“Mr. Xu, you’re punctual.” Liu Zongyang looked over and said with a smile.
“Since Mr. Liu is offering the Mystic Comprehending State Wan Luo Mythical Beast’s soul, we naturally dare not neglect.” The browless old demon said faintly with a hint.
Liu Zongyang chuckled and took out a fist-sized white crystal ball in his palm.
In the crystal ball was a soul that looked like a deer and a horse. It was constantly colliding with the inner wall of the white crystal ball. Every time it touched the crystal wall, it would be pushed back by a white light.
Liu Zongyang glanced at the white crystal ball in his hand with some heartache, then he threw it to the browless old demon.
The browless old demon received the item unceremoniously. He carefully assessed the soul in the ball, nodded, and put it away. He said lightly,
“Okay, since Mr. Liu is so sincere, please speak your mind. However, let’s be clear from the start. Your Liu Family has openly rebelled against the central imperial. Although our Kongxiang Family had a good relationship with you in the past, given the current situation, we do not wish to be involved in the conflict between your family and the Huangfu Family.”
“Of course, it’s not up to me to decide on such a major matter. The reason I invited you is for another important matter.” Liu Zongyang scolded Elder Xu for being a “sly fox” in his mind, but he said without showing it on his face.
Upon hearing this, the browless old demon looked surprised, but he didn’t speak.
“Hehe, I wonder if you, Mr. Xu, have heard of a place called the Demon Abyss Tower in the Demon Abyss?” Liu Zongyang said with a chuckle.
“Demon Abyss Tower?” The browless old demon and the chubby young demon exchanged glances, and the latter also shook his head.
“Forgive my ignorance. Please give me pointers.” The browless old demon said.
“I’m not in the position to give pointers. Since Mr. Xu is interested, I will naturally explain to you.” Liu Zongyang waved his hand and said.
“Then, I will be all ears.” The browless old demon showed a hint of curiosity
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Mr. Xu, do you know where this Demon Abyss comes from?” Liu Zongyang paused for a moment before blurting out a question.
Hearing this, the browless old demon was stunned. He asked,
“As far as I know, Demon Abyss is a mysterious realm that has existed since ancient times. Even the ancient demons can’t explain its origin. Could it be that Mr. Liu has some clues?”
“I, Da Shuo Dynasty, was born following the fate of the demon world. There are countless ancient books passed down in my family. According to years of research by my Liu Family, the Demon Abyss is a separate space connected to the rumored Ancient Demon Realm.” Liu Zongyang said solemnly.
“What? *Ancient Demon Realm!” The browless old demon was indifferent to Liu Zongyang’s boasting at first, but he was shocked by the following words.
The chubby young demon behind him and the rest were surprised.
Ancient Demon Realm had become a lost legend in the present era of the Thousands Demons Continent. Legends said that the Ancient Demon Realm was the origin of the Thousands Demons Continent. However, after numerous inter-realm wars in ancient times, the Ancient Demon Realm vanished.
However, there were still debates on the entire Thousands Demons Continent about the existence of the Ancient Demon Realm.
There were even more rumors that only in the Ancient Deamon Realm could a demon cultivator break through the Mystic Comprehending State, attaining the immortal Eternal State and sharing the lifespan of the world.
“This is the deduction of the ancestors of my Liu Family, but it’s close to the fact. The Demon Abyss Tower I mentioned is the entrance to the Ancient Demon Realm!” Liu Zongyang said confidently.
The browless old demon was a treacherous and cunning person. After getting excited, he quickly calmed down and asked with a flash of his eyes.
“Then, what’s Mr. Liu’s intention for inviting us here?”
“You may be unaware, but the Demon Abyss Tower is in the Inner Abyss of Demon Abyss. I invited you all here to see if you would be interested in joining forces with my Liu Family to explore the Demon Abyss Tower.” Liu Congyang said solemnly.
“The Inner Abyss!”
The people of the Kong Xiang Family were all astounded.
“Have you forgotten that the Inner Abyss of the Demon Abyss has always been the forbidden area? Many people entered the Demon Abyss throughout the ages to explore the place, but none has returned. Even the burial grounds outskirts of the Inner Abyss can easily trap us to death. Be reminded that we are just at the Celestial State peak in this place.” The browless old demon shook his head and said firmly.
The browless old demon knew the terror of the Inner Abyss of the Demon Abyss. Those, who had entered the demon abyss in the past, were undoubtedly curious about the Inner Abyss.
The Kong Xiang Family also sent people to explore the Inner Abyss. However, all those who entered that place died there, including a Mystic Comprehending State elder from the Kong Xiang family.
Since then, the Kong Xiang Family had designated the Inner Abyss as a forbidden area. After all, there was still a large area in Demon Abyss that could be explored, so there was no need to die in vain.
“Hehe, since I have suggested so, I have naturally made preparations.” Liu Zongyang said confidently.
Seeing Liu Zongyang’s confidence, the browless old demon couldn’t help but murmur in his mind.
Does the Liu Family really have a way to enter the Inner Abyss?
Thoughts in the browless old demon’s mind raced, but he appeared unfazed on the surface.
“By the way, I have forgotten to mention this. The Demon Abyss Tower is not only a passage to the Ancient Demon Realm, but it also holds an immense and invaluable treasure within. There are even a lot of ancient time immortal magic weapons. As they say, fortune favors the bold. I believe you understand it clearly. Our Liu Family has made extensive preparations for this trip to the Demon Abyss.” Liu Zongyang said with a glimmer in his eyes.
As soon as those words were spoken, the browless old demon was shocked. He could no longer keep calm. A fleeting greed flashed on his face.
The risk would be worth taking if there were a way to enter the Inner Abyss. After all, no one had been able to enter it throughout history. Surely, there was an abundance of treasures within.
Although the browless old demon was in the Mystic Comprehending State, he didn’t have a decent immortal magic weapon. If he could get one from the Demon Abyss Tower, his overall strength would greatly improve. Surely, his status in the family would soar even higher.
Moreover, if what Liu Zongyang said was true, taking this critical news back to the family master would be regarded as a great merit.
The Liu Family was 1 of the 4 great families as the Gao He Family, the Kong Xiang Family, and Long Family, but the Liu Family was able to contend against the central imperial. Except that they were the descendants of the former dynasty and had a lot of secrets. It was probably related to this Demon Abyss Tower too.
Thinking of this, the browless old demon decided in his mind.
After the people of the Kong Xiang Family thought about it, they also looked eager and excited. After all, since Liu Zongyang said so, he must have some confidence. He wouldn’t recklessly throw themselves to death.
“By the way, apart from your Liu Family, the central imperial should also know about the existence of the Demon Abyss Tower, right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Elder Xu really has a sharp mind. Yes, the Huangfu Family also knows about the opening of the Demon Abyss Tower. If you and I join forces, we will not be weaker than them.” Liu Zongyang saw the changes in the expressions of the browless old demon and the others, and he was determined. He said with a smile.
The browless old demon’s eyes flickered when he heard Liu Zongyang. Then, he nodded and said, “In this case, it’s fine for you and me to join hands, but please explain in detail about the Demon Abyss Tower.”
“Of course…” Liu Zongyang chuckled with a flash of his eyes.
On the other hand, Long Family, Gao He Family, and other small families began to explore different places in the Demon Abyss after some rest.
…
Liu Ming flew east. As he hid his aura with Che Huan Totem and released Divine Thought to be vigilant of the surrounding movements at all times, he avoided the habitats of many demonic creatures.
After a smooth flying journey that lasted a day and night, the terrain Liu Ming traversed became noticeably flatter. Shrubs and forests began to appear. The surroundings looked lush and verdant.
However, among these plants, there were many towering purple trees from which wisps of purple mist emerged, lingering in the air.
As Liu Ming continued to move eastward, he encountered more and more purple plants. Then, some forests and bushes even had most of the purple plants.
The ground began to become muddy, and the humidity in the air increased gradually. The steaming water vapor began to condense into mist in the air.
After flying for another 12 hours, Liu Ming encountered a vast swamp covered with rotten mud.
The vegetation in the swamp was abundant, but a majority of the plants were purple. The purple mist exuded by the purple plants mixed with the mist, forming an odd faint purple color. The surroundings looked slightly blurred as a result.
Liu Ming breathed in the fishy smell in the air, and he frowned slightly.
The purple mist was somewhat corrosive. Although it had no effect on Liu Ming’s physical body, Divine Thought would be significantly restricted here. The Che Huan Totem had also lost its effect.
In other words, if he continued to move forward, he would be exposed to the lurking demonic creatures.
However, since Liu Ming already came to this place, he wouldn’t return halfway.
After making up his mind, Liu Ming wrapped himself in black air before plunging into the faint purple mist.
TL: Does Mo Tian know about the tower too?
