Shang Liuyu recognized the scratch marks; they must have been left by those terrifying monsters from before.
The two had previously been accompanied by a large group of demonic subordinates, all of whom were top-tier experts, but now not a single one could be seen. They had most likely been wiped out by the monsters that had attacked them.
"Those monsters are indeed somewhat afraid of something here, and dare not follow us." The Shadow Demon of Fear was overjoyed.
"Damn it, we've really ripped off this trip." The Bloodthirsty Crocodile Ancestor cursed, and then the two were quickly drawn to the eerie, enormous black abyss below the cliff. "What... what is this?"
Even with their extensive experience, seeing the deathly, awe-inspiring, pitch-black abyss below made their legs weak and their bodies sweat profusely.
It's a natural pressure; the higher one's cultivation level, the more pronounced this pressure becomes.
"Damn it, that Skinning Demon King must be after this!" the Bloodthirsty Crocodile Ancestor cursed. He originally wanted to chase after it, but the fear of the abyss made him stop in his tracks.
“The deathly aura down here is so dense it’s almost tangible; we probably can’t get in.” The Shadow Demon of Fear stopped him, then looked at Shang Liuyu. “However, this trip wasn’t entirely without its rewards.”
Upon seeing Shang Liuyu and Zu'an, the Bloodthirsty Crocodile Ancestor's anger turned to joy: "That's right, you just really got us into trouble. Now it's time to settle this score."
He was extremely frustrated. He had thought this trip was a sure thing, with four Earth Immortal level experts on his side and a strong and well-equipped demon army under his command. Even if that Skinning Ghost King had some kind of conspiracy, they could crush him with their strength.
Little did they know that the Lord of All Changes had been impersonated and betrayed by Zuan. In addition, there were so many terrifying monsters in the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons that they were almost wiped out inside. They had just sacrificed their last men to escape here. How could they not be angry when they saw the culprit?
As he spoke, he noticed Zu An sitting cross-legged silently and was shocked: "He's already dead?"
The Shadow Demon stared intently at Zaun: "It doesn't look like it. There's no aura of a normal death about him; instead, there's a faint life force about him, as if he's feigning death. Hmm, could it be that he entered the Abyss of Death below using some kind of feigned death technique?"
Shang Liuyu was somewhat impressed; although this guy was an enemy, his insight was indeed extraordinary.
Upon hearing this, the Bloodthirsty Crocodile Ancestor laughed loudly: "That's even better. Otherwise, we would still have some difficulty dealing with him. We can take this opportunity to send him to his true death."
The Shadow Demon laughed, "That's right, kill him first, then we'll use the same secret technique to explore this Abyss of Death."
Shang Liuyu took a deep breath: "Are you saying all this just to pretend I don't exist?"
The two looked at each other, then burst into laughter: "Sorry, it really doesn't matter whether you're here or not."
They were incredibly powerful individuals; if not for the world's barrier suppressing them, their cultivation would have far surpassed that of Earth Immortals.
Even a celestial being could easily deal with this woman.
At most, she's a Grandmaster; any one of my subordinates could easily surpass her.
The Bloodthirsty Crocodile Ancestor had the most fiery temper. Because of his severed tail and one hand, he revealed his gaping maw: "Then let me enjoy this flesh and blood of a powerful being to make up for my losses."
Although he harbored intense hatred for Zuan, he had to admit that Zuan was the strongest being in this world. Consuming his flesh and blood would not only restore him to his original state, but he would probably also make a profit.
As for Shang Liuyu, this beautiful woman, with her delicate skin and tender flesh, she looks like she'd taste good.
No sooner had he finished speaking than he opened his enormous, blood-red maw, dozens of feet long, and lunged at the two of them, as if afraid that the Shadow Demon of Fear would snatch it from him.
