Chapter 261 The Dark Abyss



It was extremely smooth all around, making it impossible to grip.

In desperation, Li Tianyi plunged Po Jun into the rock wall to slow his descent.

Sparks flew, and a scene in the distance came into view. His pupils dilated instantly, and cold sweat poured down his back. "So many skeletons?"

With a furrowed brow, he gripped Po Jun tightly, gradually regaining his balance.

Once I could control my descent speed, I felt completely relieved and immediately headed towards a safer landing spot.

The moment my feet touched the ground, a bone-chilling cold swept over me, causing me to shiver involuntarily and scan my surroundings warily.

A little over a minute later.

"What a strange place!" Li Tianyi frowned and explored forward.

Suddenly, cries for help came from a great distance.

I heard it clearly this time and rushed over immediately.

Running wildly all the way...

The deepest part of the pit.

Sima Qing'er was curled up in the crevice, with a tall gray wolf directly in front of her.

The gray wolf kept scratching inwards with its claws.

"Get out of here! Get out of here!" Fear, terror, and resentment filled his heart, and tears streamed down his face. "Am I really going to die here? No, I can't die. The supernova weapon is still waiting for me to research. I have to live no matter what."

Its will to survive grew stronger, and it kept groping around.

Soon, I touched something as thick as a baby's arm. I tried to pick it up with one hand, but I found that it was very heavy.

Holding it with both hands and using all my strength, I finally managed to lift it up.

"Go to hell!"

The stone pillar slammed into the gray wolf's paws, making a 'whoosh' sound.

A fierce killing intent flashed in the gray wolf's eyes, and it switched to using one claw to strike.

It was lying on its side, its sharp claws less than five centimeters away from Sima Qing'er.

She was terrified and picked up the stone pillar, smashing it wildly.

*Smack*, *Waaah*...

The gray wolf's left paw was smashed off. It painfully pulled back its body, glanced viciously at the gap, and turned to leave.

The surroundings quickly returned to quiet.

Sima Qing'er peeked out fearfully, and after confirming that there were no wild animals around, she patted her wildly beating heart.

After catching my breath, my stomach rumbled, "I'm so hungry!"

After searching around, they found nothing to eat and could only rest against the mountainside.

As time went on, hunger made her dizzy and her vision blurred.

He shook his head hard to clear his head a little, and as soon as he managed to stand up, he felt dizzy and fell down.

"Help, help me, help me..."

The cries for help grew fainter and fainter.

Sima Qing'er used her last bit of strength, tears welling in her eyes, and thought to herself, "I'm already thirty-two years old, and I've never even had a boyfriend. God, please don't play this on me."

Her vision was getting blurrier and blurrier. "If a man comes to save me right now, I'll marry him no matter if he's young or old!"

Everything went black.

Suddenly, his body was lifted up by a pair of large hands.

Sima Qing'er opened her eyes with difficulty, a bitter smile appearing on her lips. "How could anyone possibly be here?"

Li Tianyi disregarded the impropriety of a relationship between men and women and kept pressing on her chest, saying, "Dr. Sima, don't sleep, please don't sleep!"

Sima Qing'er suddenly woke up and exclaimed when someone pressed on her sensitive area.

"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright!" Li Tianyi took out a multi-functional beverage from his system space and handed it over. "Drink up!"

Sima Qing'er felt weak all over. "I... have no strength!"

His gaze slid down and he noticed that Li Tianyi's left hand was still pressed against his chest. He struggled to pry it off, "Taking advantage of someone in distress!"

He quickly let go, scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, twisted open the drink, and held it to her lips, saying, "The situation is urgent, don't overthink it."

After drinking the beverage, I regained some strength and quickly moved to the side, maintaining a distance of half a meter.

Neither of them spoke.

After what seemed like an eternity, the two spoke at the same time: "That!"

Li Tianyi smiled slightly, "You go first!"

Sima Qing'er looked up, her brows furrowed, and her face contorted in distress. "It's too high up here, how can we get up?"

"Once you recover, I can take you out!" Li Tianyi pointed to the space surfboard and handed over a large piece of braised beef. "Recover as soon as possible!"

"Um!"

Sima Qing'er opened her small mouth to take a bite, but realized that eating like that was too rough, so she quickly turned around.

Li Tianyi ignored her and stayed quietly.

A dozen seconds later, Sima Qing'er made a "woo-woo" sound and kept pointing to the crevice.

"What's the matter?"

"Energy stone, energy stone!" Sima Qing'er even threw away the braised beef, picked up the stone pillar that had been used to strike the gray wolf, and was as excited as a child. "The supernova weapon is expected to be mass-produced! That's great, that's great!"

Her greatest wish in this life is to develop a supernova weapon to protect Earth and the Dragon Kingdom.

Now that my wish has finally come true, how could I not be excited?

Li Tianyi was also excited, but he didn't shout out. He clenched his fists tightly and smiled broadly.

After a long while, Sima Qing'er finally returned to normal and carefully handed over the energy stone, saying, "Keep it safe, and don't lose it."

The energy stone vanished instantly.

"This?" Sima Qing'er stared at him as if he were a monster, but out of the corner of her eye she caught sight of an even larger energy stone. "Haha, there are more, there are many more!"

Looking in the direction she pointed, there was a large pile of such stones in the deep pit on the right slope.

"We're rich! We're rich!"

With a wave of his hand, Li Tian sent energy stones continuously into the system space.

A few minutes later, the two were grinning from ear to ear, carefully inspecting every part...

As time went by, the distance between them grew further and further.

Suddenly, a large rat darted out from beside Sima Qing'er's left foot with incredible speed.

"ah!"

Li Tianyi was quite frightened and rushed over, asking, "Are you alright?"

"What a huge rat! It scared me to death!" Sima Qing'er pointed at the mountain wall in front of her, her eyes filled with doubt. "There were no pits here, how did it disappear?"

"Move aside, let me see!"

After a careful look, he struck directly in front of him with his palm, which instantly passed through the mountain wall.

"An illusion?"

As my arm went deeper, I felt a wet sensation.

Li Tianyi frowned slightly. "There's definitely something strange about this place. Should we go take a look?"

Sima Qing'er's curiosity was piqued. "Hmm, let's take a look!"

The two first tested the area with their hands and feet to make sure there was no danger before slowly sticking their heads inside.

Just as their bodies were about halfway inside, a strange force forcibly pulled them both in.

Thud!

It crashed heavily to the ground.

Suddenly, the white ore around us lit up like light bulbs, making it hard to open our eyes.

Li Tianyi quickly stood up, shielding Sima Qing'er behind him, his gaze shifting.

There was nothing else around except for the white ore.

"Can we walk?"

"able!"

"Let's go take a look ahead!"

"good!"

Li Tianyi walked ahead, with Sima Qing'er following closely behind...

More than an hour later.

"Huff, huff!" Sima Qing'er wiped away her sweat. "What a terrible place! We can't see the end of it at all! Are we going to be trapped here and die?"

"No way!" Li Tianyi pointed to the mountain wall. "Look, the positions of the mineral lamps nearby are different from before. In other words, this place is not a maze, but just a very long passage!"

"Okay!" Sima Qing'er pouted, looking around.

Suddenly, a small, slightly protruding stone on the left slope caught her attention.

I subconsciously poked it with my finger.

Crack! Boom!

A hole appeared in the mountain wall, large enough for her to bend down and enter, which frightened her so much that she retreated repeatedly.

Li Tianyi was also quite frightened and took out a powerful flashlight to shine it on the target.

"You stay outside, I'll go check!"

"Together!"

"All right!"

Upon entering, the scene instantly distorted.

Sima Qing'er was so frightened that she grabbed Li Tianyi's clothes from behind, her legs trembling slightly.

Li Tianyi used his internal energy to form a protective layer on his body.

Thump, whoosh!

The scene freezes: towering mountain walls, lush vegetation, waist-high grass, exuding a unique fragrance.

"Stay close to me!" Li Tianyi said solemnly as he explored the area ahead.

Sima Qing'er, however, spread her arms, closed her eyes, and inhaled the scents of nature, completely absorbed in them.

"Don't stand there, keep up."

She didn't respond even after I called her several times.

Li Tianyi was quite frightened and rushed over to her side, patting her on the shoulder.

Suddenly, Sima Qing'er hugged him tightly and started kissing him all over the place.

He quickly grabbed her neck, exclaiming in alarm, "Poisoned?"

With a swift two-finger strike, Sima Qing'er's body went limp, and she collapsed into his arms.

Even after swallowing an antidote pill developed by Su Wanruo, his condition did not improve at all.

Upon taking his pulse, his expression instantly turned grim. "What a strange poison! It has already reached the vicinity of the heart meridian so quickly. If I hadn't sealed two major acupoints in time, the poison would probably have already taken effect!"

The medical texts that Su Wanruo had made him memorize kept flashing through Li Tianyi's mind.

Suddenly, he found symptoms in the Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica that were extremely similar to those of Sima Qing'er, and exclaimed with great joy, "Girl, you're really lucky! I was able to think of that!"

They strapped it to their backs and ran wildly toward where there might be water...

Two hours passed.

Li Tianyi was already drenched in sweat, but he couldn't find any water source. Just as he was considering whether to use the space surfboard, a plume of smoke shot out from directly in front of him and rose straight into the sky.

They rushed to a high point and were overjoyed to see, "Smoke, it's smoke from a chimney!"

Rushing over, I saw a large stone house with thick smoke billowing from its chimney.

He quickly arrived outside, regulated his breathing, and went inside.

The hall was extremely simple, containing nothing but a stone table and a few stone stools.

He cleared his throat. "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"

After calling about ten times, there was still no response.

Li Tianyi gripped Po Jun tightly, secretly gathering his power on his body, and walked towards the kitchen.

When they arrived at the kitchen, there was no one there.

"This place is strange in every way; we can't stay any longer!"

I rushed back to the living room, but the front door was already closed.

"Oh no, we've fallen into their trap!" Li Tianyi frowned, scanning the room.

At the same time, Sima Qing'er's mouth twitched, her whole body trembled, and blood flowed from her mouth and nose.

Quickly place her on the table and channel your inner energy into her.

Although the trembling stopped, her whole body was burning hot, her skin was flushed, and her face was so red that it looked like it was about to bleed.

"I'm so sorry, please don't be offended!"

He pulled out a dagger and made small cuts on her two middle fingers and two big toes.

As the poisonous blood continued to flow, Sima Qing'er's condition improved considerably.

Li Tianyi felt much relieved and increased his internal energy output...

After an unknown amount of time, the bleeding from the wound finally returned to normal. Sima Qing'er's face was ashen, and even her lips were bloodless.

Upon checking his breath, it was barely a whisper.

"I will never let you die!"

A resolute glint flashed in Li Tian's eyes. He took out a large number of pills, stuffed them into his mouth, and chewed them thoroughly.

Feed it mouth-to-mouth...

"(P.S.: The treatment process was too... well, it's been censored. Please use your imagination. The following 270,000 words are omitted.)"
