Chapter 354 Going to the Abyss Alone

Sword Sect, on the Merciless Cliff.

When a beam of golden light came quickly from the horizon, Han Qing and Li Changfeng saw this scene on their respective peaks and were both stunned.

How come the spirit came back on its own? ! ! Could it be...

Suddenly, they had a bad feeling in their hearts, so they both ran in one direction in an instant.

On the Ruthless Cliff.

The wind and snow were like countless tiny ice needles, biting to the bone.

When the dazzling golden light fell on a huge piece of ice in front of him, the ice that had been sealed for a long time slowly melted, revealing a figure inside.

The person in the ice's eyelashes, as black as crow feathers, moved slightly, and his half-closed eyes gradually opened, but his eyes were as dark as ink and seemed empty, without any change in emotion.

At this moment, the two figures beside him fell to the ground immediately.

"Nephew?"

"Junior brother?"

The two asked in unison, then looked at his face tentatively.

But who would have thought that just by looking at each other, those eyes, like a black vortex, seemed to absorb all the emotions of the person.

It was so cold that it seemed to have even condensed into shape.

Li Changfeng couldn't help but take a step back and took a breath.

Han Qing frowned when he saw that something seemed wrong with his condition.

The people before, even if they were a little cold in nature, would at least communicate when facing them, and there would be some fluctuations in their eyes.

But now, the indifference of the person in front of me is no longer just a superficial sense of distance, but a soulless loneliness that goes deep into my bones.

How could this be? Shouldn't this trip be smooth? Han Qing frowned.

In fact, when Lu Wuhui first proposed that solution, they were a little hesitant at first, but finally chose to believe him.

After all, in all these years, he has never once asked them to worry about anything. He has always done his best in everything, so they are very relieved.

Besides, it would be too unfair to let him prove his truth by being ruthless. Now there is a better way, so why don't they help him?

But his current appearance was completely opposite to what they had expected.

It really is like a puppet with all the emotions drained away...

At this moment, the ice on his body had completely melted, and he stepped out and walked between the two people.

"Hey, Junior Brother, where are you going?"

Li Changfeng was about to reach out to stop him, but the other party stopped and slowly turned his head.

But when he met that empty look, Li Changfeng suddenly stopped.

"Abyss."

Just two simple words made people feel as if they were falling into an endless cold pool. Only the warmth he exhaled when he spoke prevented the two from doubting that the person in front of them was a living person.

Without any words, he raised his hand and clenched it, and the space in front of him collapsed and shattered. Then he passed by the two people and stepped in alone.

When the space shrank again, Han Qing and Li Changfeng finally woke up from their dream and exhaled deeply, having not dared to breathe.

"How could this be???" Han Qing murmured in a voice full of vicissitudes.

The person who went there to seek love became completely heartless after returning?

"Uncle, the look in Junior Brother's eyes just now was a little too scary, wasn't it?"

"...Don't even mention it, I was shocked."

Li Changfeng was a little troubled, "Then what should we do, uncle?"

Han Qing quickly stood up and said, "Why don't you report to the Grand Elder? What else can we do?"

…

The report had just been submitted to the higher authorities. The elders were sitting together to discuss the current situation, and the telescope, which was responsible for contacting various places and could not be activated unless it was an emergency, suddenly lit up.

Han Qing immediately stepped forward to check it out, and the elders also looked over curiously, but the content on it shocked everyone present.

"How could he have entered the Abyss alone and even removed the switch that could open the formation, sealing off the entire Abyss?!!"

"Is the Sect Leader crazy? Why are you so impulsive? How can one person kill so many ghosts?"

"Wait, what's written down here? There are remnants of the ghost clan who are stirring up unrest among the demon clan in Nanzhou and have even entered the mortal world?"

…

The waves of impact left the elders present dumbfounded.

It was obvious that the leader's sudden rush into the abyss was definitely related to the ghost tribe he encountered in Nanzhou.

"The ghost tribe had planned this long ago. The sudden rise of our sect in the Five Sect Trials over the past few decades was superficially an invasion by the demon tribe, but in reality, it was the ghost tribe behind the scenes fanning the flames."

"It's connected to the turmoil in Nanzhou. The people behind the scenes fled to Nanzhou and launched their actions, eventually even going so far as to reach out to the mortal world."

Han Qing summarized it.

"Such a big thing happened, why didn't the Immortal Alliance report it in advance?" An elder slammed the table in anger.

Looking at the voice transmission report, Han Qing couldn't help but frown, "The ghost tribe is cunning. They actually live next to people with Tianlong luck and use dragon energy to hide their bodies."

"Dragon Qi? Could it be..."

"Indeed, I think they are planning to sacrifice the Human Emperor to the Ghost Dao, in order to infringe upon the Heavenly Dao and bring down divine punishment, and forcibly split open the entrance to the Abyss."

The faith and order of the human race are not only what the world of immortal cultivation should maintain, but also what the way of heaven should maintain. However, I didn't expect that the ghost clan would use this as a way to open the abyss.

Han Qing sighed and continued, "The Holy Ruins and the Immortal Alliance finally discovered in the mortal world that the ghost who had fought with the Sect Leader had his dying soul transported back to the Abyss by a teleportation array that had been set up long ago."

"That's probably why the Sect Master chased directly into the abyss."

Suddenly, everyone present understood everything.

"But the leader is too..." someone couldn't help but speak out.

"Alas, there is only one entrance to the Abyss for cultivators. The Saint Ruins said that if we force it open, there's no guarantee that ghosts won't take the opportunity to escape."

The formation set up by the Abyss at the beginning also had an entrance and exit that only human cultivators could enter and exit, so that the ghost clan could be restrained and weakened from time to time.

Over the years, the governance of the abyss has been quite effective. With the help of the ruthless sword that has been cultivated to the sword domain realm and added to the formation, many high-level ghosts have been tragically killed.

This made them see the hope that the ghost clan would be destroyed one day.

But now the leader rushed directly into the abyss, and for some unknown reason, he did not even give others a chance to enter and help.

Could it be that he really wants to kill all the remaining ghosts by himself?

But this is like walking into a trap. If they are really caught by the ghosts in the abyss... where can they find a second Merciless Sword?

But nowadays, there are only a few ways to kill high-level ghosts, but none of them are as violent and fast as the ruthless sword.

Otherwise, in the war many years ago, the predecessors would not have had to sacrifice their lives, but would have simply sealed the ghost clan.

Now the Holy Ruins have tactfully said that they cannot take the initiative to open the abyss.

Everyone knew exactly what this meant.

There was some silence for a while.

Finally, a long sigh was heard from the void, and a huge shadow stroking its beard appeared.

"Grand Elder!" Everyone immediately saluted.

"Never mind. We put a lot of pressure on him before. Perhaps he also wanted to get rid of the burden on his shoulders, so he went with the intention of exterminating all the ghosts."

"Whether he succeeds or fails, he has done his best for everyone."

The Supreme Elder had already fully understood what happened to Lu Wuhui.

I will not let down the world of immortal cultivation, I will not let down my sect, and I will not let down anyone.

Therefore, they are not qualified to comment on his actions.

What's more, all emotions have been wiped out, leaving only the ruthless sword of killing in the heart. Can the ghost clan really withstand it?
