As for the truth, no one knows!
Seeing that things were not going well, Li Luo once again pushed Xiao Feng's hand away.
"Since you know how to get to the Abyss, why don't you go there yourself?"
Gongsun Zhi sighed and, with a wave of his hand, revealed his true cultivation level.
It's crystal clear!
Gongsun Zhi was just covering it up.
Xiao Feng suddenly realized why he thought a person at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage shouldn't be so weak.
It turns out that this person's cultivation level was only at the mid-Nascent Soul stage!
"The abyss is too dangerous. With my cultivation level, do you think I can go there?"
"Or the two of you could help me!"
Li Luo recalled the events of a hundred years ago and couldn't help but continue asking questions.
"If I remember correctly, you and Gongsun Xing seem to have some kind of conflict!"
Gongsun Zhi remained silent for a moment.
Why save him?
"He'll be back and inherit the position of the manor lord!"
Gongsun Zhi did not hide anything and spoke his mind.
These words were even more difficult for Li Luo to accept.
"Master Gongsun, are you kidding us?"
"You're doing a good job as the head of the manor, and you're a kind and honest person, so why do this?"
Gongsun Zhi gave a bitter smile.
"It's still because of their cultivation level!"
"My cultivation has been stuck at the mid-Nascent Soul stage for a long time; I don't deserve to occupy this position!"
"Enough with the small talk, are you guys willing to go or not?"
Xiao Feng quickly spoke up.
"Yes, yes, I can go!"
Li Luo quickly covered Xiao Feng's mouth.
"What will happen if we don't go?"
Although Li Luo trusted the person in front of her, she still had some reservations about the news that had come out about what happened back then.
She was wary of that!
"If you disagree, it's simple: send that person back to where I brought them from!"
"The icy sea stretches for thousands of miles; you people of the Spirit Sword Sect, go find it yourselves!"
Li Luo quickly waved her hand in refusal.
"Master Gongsun, I was just joking. You are a man of integrity, and you are not untrustworthy!"
"Then it's settled!"
As she spoke, Li Luo gave Xiao Feng a reproachful look and whispered in his ear.
"Kid, stick close to me once we're in the abyss, and don't trust this guy too much!"
Xiao Feng found it strange, after all, in the few minutes they had spent together, Xiao Feng felt that Gongsun Zhi was not a bad person.
Moreover, he is fair in his dealings with people!
Why can't we believe it?
The question was quietly relayed back.
But all he received was a resentful look from Li Luo.
"Just listen to me!"
One sentence silenced Xiao Feng, and even though he had countless doubts in his heart, he dared not ask any more questions.
Guided by Gongsun Zhi, the three of them quickly arrived at the entrance to the Abyss.
"This is it!"
Seeing the unremarkable cave in front of him, Xiao Feng was somewhat puzzled.
Is the place they fear so much really that ordinary?
Are you sure this is the Abyss?
Li Luo had only heard of this name in rumors, and she couldn't understand the cave entrance she saw now.
"This is the place. Would I lie to you?"
Gongsun Zhi's words were quite meaningful.
"Bring the person out, and we'll exchange hostages!"
Seeing that the place was unremarkable, Li Luo's wariness lessened considerably.
"You've lost much of your drive compared to when you were younger!"
Gongsun Zhi gave an awkward smile.
"There's no way around it. You have someone in charge and no worries behind you, while I have an entire estate behind me!"
That makes sense!
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here. When you come out, I'll bring the person back with me!"
Xiao Feng and Li Luo exchanged a glance.
There was no other choice!
The two quickly headed towards the cave entrance.
Only after he had disappeared deep into the cave did Gongsun Zhi reveal a cold expression on his face.
This is an open conspiracy!
Nine out of ten places are deserted!
Those two guys are definitely not coming back.
In this way, even if the people from the Spirit Sword Sect come, they won't be able to find anything wrong with it.
After traveling for a long time in the darkness, a glimmer of light appeared in the distance.
"I think this is the place!"
Xiao Feng's voice slowly drifted out, and an echo immediately resounded in the cave.
"Just keep moving forward!"
Soon, the two arrived at the exit.
This is the Land of the Abyss!
Layer upon layer of mountains, only their shadows can be seen through the mist.
Seeing this, Li Luo instinctively grabbed Xiao Feng's arm.
Even those with high levels of cultivation feel fear in this eerie place.
"Hold on tight, don't get separated!"
Li Luo cheered her on.
Xiao Feng, however, did not care.
"This doesn't seem dangerous at all, and the spiritual energy here is very abundant, making it a good place for cultivation!"
With each breath, Xiao Feng felt the shackles on his cultivation subtly loosening.
Perhaps this is where I can break through!
"We still need to be careful, but then again, it's not as dangerous as we thought. Gongsun Zhi is really too timid!"
"With my master here, and with my Flowing Light Sword, we can overcome any difficulty!"
The two quickly headed towards the front of the fog.
Before he had taken two steps, Xiao Feng heard a strange sound.
It sounded like two bones colliding, or like the dull thud of a sharp blade piercing flesh.
It's chewing!
"Master, be careful! There seems to be a monster ahead!"
Li Luo was stunned for a moment, then took two steps forward before she heard the chewing sound.
That kid...
Such a terrifying perception!
"Kid, thank goodness it's you!"
"If your senior sister were here, upon hearing this voice, she would only ask questions!"
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Li Luo put on an exaggerated expression.
Xiao Feng was quite displeased, but he still seriously drew the sword from his waist.
"A raging fire!"
The next moment, a dense flame erupted from Xiao Feng's Flowing Light Sword, instantly dispelling the surrounding mist.
Xiao Feng could see all the space within a few feet in front of him.
However, Xiao Feng regretted it as soon as he did it.
Everywhere you look, it's a nauseating sight!
The body of a monster was hanging high on a tree branch nearby.
Countless eight-legged insects covered its body, tearing and gnawing at it.
Just now, Xiao Feng heard the sound of chewing.
That's exactly what it comes from!
Li Luo subconsciously pulled Xiao Feng behind her.
"It's a worm!"
What are worms?
Since arriving in this world, Xiao Feng has learned almost nothing about it.
All I've ever done is cultivate!
Naturally, they also didn't know the meaning of the name.
Li Luo was too lazy to explain and pulled out a silver needle from her waist.
See for yourself!
The next moment, the silver needle shot out and pierced directly into the body of an insect.
explode!
Then came a shocking surge of liquid that completely covered the monster's body!
A foul, fishy smell hit him, and Xiao Feng, leaning against the wall, couldn't help but vomit.
At the same time, the insects spotted Xiao Feng and the others, bared their fangs, and pounced on them.
Xiao Feng regretted it, and so did Li Luo!
Because they discovered that there were far more insects than they had thought!
Countless more crawled out from the body of the monster!
