"Is this... a natural barrier?" Linghui murmured.
Qing He beside him nodded gently: "Yes, the two Tianshan Mountains are a full 490,000 kilometers apart, and there are all kinds of chaotic air currents below. Falling down will definitely kill you."
"Plus, all flying abilities are disabled in the Tianchi Secret Realm. Only by using the bronze chains can we reach the other side of the chasm."
"That is the core of the Tianchi Secret Realm."
After a pause, she continued, "However... just walking 490,000 kilometers on the chain is an extremely demanding task of endurance and mental state."
"During this period, we will encounter various unexpected crises."
"For example, a sudden chaotic gale can instantly tear through a Divine Lord-level defense and cause us to fall from our chains."
"There are also soul-devouring demonic shadows roaming the abyss, which can suddenly emerge and attack our spirits."
"The most terrifying thing is the Nightmare of the Heavenly Chasm. This is a monster that is unique to the Tianchi Secret Realm. They will make you enter the dream without any warning."
"You think you're still in chains, but you may have already entered a dream carefully woven by this monster. It's impossible to defend yourself..."
When she finished speaking, the Great Beast Lord, Tu Gang and others frowned again, and realized that it was not so easy to cross the chasm.
Han Xing then asked, "What's the significance of these eighteen chains?"
"Should I choose one of these, or are they both the same?"
Qing He pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know the details either."
"But what is certain is that no matter which chain you choose, you will encounter various sudden attacks."
Han Xing nodded suddenly and said, "I understand."
"So it seems that no matter which chain we choose, it will be the same."
His eyes gleamed, and he said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, then let's walk the same chain together."
"Even if there is any special situation, there will be someone to take care of it."
Everyone looked at each other and nodded.
This decision made by the Korean star is safer and more correct.
Including the lords of the Western Regions, they are now forming teams of three or two, preparing to choose a chain and enter together.
At this time, Yao Lian suddenly spoke: "In addition to the dangers in the natural chasm, we must also be careful of these guys."
"Um?"
Han Xing asked in surprise, "Be careful of these guys? You mean, they can attack each other while moving in the chains?"
Yao Lian nodded: "Yes, as long as you are strong enough, or not afraid of death, you can attack the enemy through the chains."
Hearing this, everyone on the field frowned again.
The chain spanning hundreds of thousands of kilometers, coupled with the various situations encountered along the way, is already difficult enough.
Having to be careful of sudden attacks from these guys on the road is just adding insult to injury.
But fortunately... Han Xing and the others were worried that these guys would suddenly attack them. Weren't they also worried that the number one man in the Southern Region would attack them?
After all, Korean stars deliberately create a character that is warlike, bloodthirsty, and arrogant.
They were really afraid that this madman would suddenly attack them while in chains, so they all stayed away from Han Xing and stood aside waiting.
It seems that they want to wait until the Korean star chooses the chain before they make their choice.
Seeing this, Han Xing smiled playfully: "It seems... my reputation is quite useful."
He deliberately took a step forward and whispered, "Everyone, aren't you going up?"
Seeing him coming, the lords of the Western Regions immediately retreated in unison, and some even almost stepped on air and fell off the cliff.
These lords from the Western Regions stood there in shock, looking at him as if he were a plague god.
The Kuhai Venerable gently turned the Buddhist beads in his hand and said devoutly, "Eternal and infinite..."
"Friend Han Xing, we've both crossed the chasm once before and know how dangerous it is. You should go first."
After hearing this, Han Xing still had a playful smile on his face: "Oh? Let me go first, aren't you afraid that I will cross the chasm first and snatch the other party's opportunity?"
After hearing this, the lords of the Western Regions looked at each other in surprise, with different lights flashing in their eyes.
Obviously, they were indeed worried that Han Xing would cross the chasm first and seize the opportunity in the palace opposite.
But compared to these, they were more worried that this moody number one genius in the Southern Region would attack them on the natural chasm.
By now, these lords of the Western Regions no longer regard Han Xing as an ordinary Chaos Lord.
Ever since the other party brought several teammates and forcibly climbed Tianshan Mountain with his physical body, and even absorbed the original power of Tianshan Mountain, everyone has seen the horror of this peerless monster!
At least, in terms of physical strength alone, no one among the mid-level gods present can compare to him.
In such a dangerous place, you can't fly, and if you fall, you will be smashed to pieces!
So... these Western Region gods remained silent in the end.
It was obvious that they had made up their minds that if the Korean stars didn't go, they would definitely not go either.
Seeing this scene, Han Xing also understood the thoughts of these Western Region Gods, and chuckled and shook his head.
"Never mind... Since everyone is so humble, let us go first."
"I've heard rumors from the outside world before that the Western Region's God Lord is quite xenophobic and would make things difficult for foreign lords. Now it seems that's not the case."
Han Xing looked around at everyone and said meaningfully, "You all are very considerate of us lords from the outside world."
When he finished speaking, all the gods in the Western Regions showed different expressions.
But they didn't finish their words and continued to stare at Han Xing.
Han Xing chuckled, his eyes swept across the eighteen chains, and then fixed on the calm chain on the right.
"Now that you've chosen everyone, let's go."
After hearing this, Tu Gang beside him immediately stretched out his right hand and turned it into a huge metal shield.
He quickly stepped onto the chain and said in a deep voice, "Benefactor, I will clear the way for you."
As the strongest defensive member of the team, Tu Gang took the position of shield guard without hesitation.
Of course, this is also the most dangerous position.
Although, on this chain, attacks come from all directions.
But according to experience, those who are at the forefront are often the first to be attacked.
However, Han Xing didn't say much and just nodded in agreement.
Then, Coal Ball jumped onto the chain with a roar, and dark flames ignited on its four claws.
Next are Yaolian, Qinghe and Miaoqing.
Then there are Long Yu, Ling Hui and Han Xing.
The Beast Lord was the last one to step into the chain and was responsible for guarding the rear.
Han Xing stepped on the chains and felt a cold touch under his feet.
If you move slightly, you can still feel a shaking.
"Ka La La..."
After adjusting their bodies, everyone had almost adapted to the environment on the chains.
Then, Han Xing ordered: "Go, sprint at full speed."
The next moment, a golden light emanated from his body, enveloping all the team members on the chain.
The moment they came into contact with the golden light, everyone felt that their bodies became light, as if they had turned into pure particles of light.
With just a thought, he could rush out tens of thousands of meters!
At this moment, they also understood what Han Xing meant.
This is preparing to directly activate the ultimate move [Flowing Light Without Trace] from [Tianji Liuguang Bu], and then lead everyone to the finish line in one breath!
Sure enough, as the golden light enveloped his entire body, the man's steady voice came to his ears.
"Go, full speed ahead."
"Cross the chasm directly at the fastest speed."
When the words fell.
"boom--!"
At the moment the golden light exploded, Han Xing and his group streaked across the sky like seven meteors!
With the help of [Flowing Light Without Trace], their speed was so fast that it could not be captured by the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, they rushed out 100,000 meters!
Seeing Han Xing and others instantly turn into streams of light and disappear at the end of the chain, the faces of the powerful men in the Western Regions suddenly changed.
"Oh no! They are so fast!" The face of a Western Region God Lord changed drastically.
The Cyclops locked onto the direction Han Xing and the others were leaving and said in a deep voice, "Want to use your extreme speed to rush to the finish line in one go?"
"Chase! We can't let them get ahead!"
He kicked hard with his huge legs, and with a loud "bang", a deep pit thousands of kilometers long and wide appeared on the spot!
The Cyclops had already stepped into one of the chains and was also rushing forward at an extremely fast speed.
Upon seeing this, the other gods of the Western Regions also displayed their magical powers, choosing different chains and rushing towards the other side of the chasm at high speed.
“Swish—swish—!”
In an instant, the scene became chaotic!
Almost all the gods burst out with their full speed on the chains, as if they were worried that the treasures on the opposite side would be completely cleared out by Han Xing and his team.
However, there were still a few gods who stood there leisurely.
Among them was the Bauhinia Lord, who had a long sword on his waist and a solemn expression.
In addition, there is Venerable Kuhai, the middle-aged man in a black cloak from the Thousand Killings Alliance, and the swordsman from the Burial Land.
When those lords had burst out at high speed and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The assassin from the Thousand Killings Alliance slowly revealed himself. He uttered a faint voice, "Hehehe... a bunch of impulsive guys..."
"Crossing a chasm isn't about who's faster..."
The Venerable Kuhai clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name: "Eternal and immeasurable, when greed arises, disasters arise..."
The swordsman of the Burial Ground had a calm look in his eyes, his fingertips gently stroking the hilt of his sword: "The road ahead is filled with danger at every step. The faster you run, the sooner you die."
The assassin from the Thousand Killings Alliance looked at the Bitter Sea Venerable, "Old man...it's time for us to go up..."
"Although it's not easy to cross the chasm, there might be some lucky ones who can reach the finish line directly."
"Only seven secret palaces across the way are open at a time."
"If we go too late, we won't even be able to drink the soup."
After hearing this, Venerable Kuhai turned the Buddhist beads in his hand again.
He nodded slowly and said, "What you said makes sense... In that case, let's get started..."
He turned his head and looked at the Bauhinia Divine Lord beside him: "Bauhinia, do you want to come with us?"
Since arriving at the Natural Chasm, Lord Bauhinia has remained silent, with a worried look on his face.
When she heard the question from Venerable Kuhai, she didn't say anything and just chose a chain and stepped in.
Then it turned into a stream of purple light and rushed directly into the depths.
Seeing this scene, the three major forces looked at each other in confusion.
The swordsman in the Burial Ground made a hoarse voice: "What happened to her?"
"Didn't we agree to cross the chasm together and share the gains from the secret realm equally?"
Venerable Kuhai and the assassin from the Thousand Killings Alliance were also somewhat puzzled.
After a moment, the assassin sneered, "Women are troublesome. They can change their minds at the last minute even if they agree on something."
"We don't have to worry about her. With one less person, we can get more treasures."
The two of them pondered for a while and nodded.
Then, their figures flashed and they all disappeared from the spot.
At this point, all the gods who successfully climbed Mount Tianshan have begun their second trial: crossing the chasm.
These eighteen chains, stretching 77.49 million kilometers, are fraught with dangers along the way.
I'm afraid that less than half of them will be able to reach the finish line.
As for those lords who did not reach the end, the ending is naturally needless to say.
If you fall into a place like this, there is almost no chance of survival.
After they all stepped into the chains, a cloud of black mist suddenly gathered beside the chasm.
The black mist kept changing, sometimes transforming into a human form, sometimes turning into a flowing liquid...
Wherever it passed, even the Tianshan land beneath its feet was corroded into a pitch-black color.
After searching for a while, it followed the passage chosen by Han Xing and began to chase at a high speed.
…
…
at the same time.
Almost five seconds had passed after Han Xing activated the acceleration skill [Flowing Light Without Trace] of [Tianji Liuguang Bu] to help all his teammates increase their speed.
Forty-nine thousand kilometers. If it were in the outside world, if the Korean star burst out at full speed, it would not even take 0.1 seconds to reach the destination.
But this is the [Tianchi Secret Realm], and the rules there are different from those in the Lord Continent.
In this secret realm, everyone's movement speed is greatly suppressed, and the space is reinforced, making it impossible to move quickly through space cracks.
Especially after stepping into the chains of the natural chasm, they felt a special force binding their bodies, suppressing everyone's speed to the extreme.
Five seconds passed, and they had barely reached 200,000 kilometers, still more than half the distance to the finish line.
And at this moment, just as they broke through the distance of 210,000 kilometers, they seemed to have crashed into a strange area.
Everyone's speed was drastically reduced, and every step seemed to be nearly ten thousand times slower than the original one.
"What's going on?"
The Beast Lord suddenly realized that his voice had become extremely slow, and each word was dragged out. "Our...actions..."
“It’s… changing… so… slowly…”
Hearing the strange syllables of the Great Beast Lord, everyone realized that something was wrong.
And not only did the speaking movements slow down, everything else seemed to slow down.
They raised their arms very slowly, as if they were soaked in sticky syrup.
Even the action of blinking is broken down into slow frames, with eyelashes slowly drooping and then slowly rising.
Tu Gang, who was at the front of the team, also gradually showed a look of shock on his metallic features.
