Chapter 350 Demonic Sound from the Abyss
"Chizha Abyss? What is that place?" Li Fan couldn't help but ask as the name revealed an ominous aura.
Ji Hongdao turned around and glanced at Li Fan, then smiled and said, "It's no use telling you now. You will know it when the time comes."
"Although it's a little dangerous, you don't have to worry too much."
"With old guys like us here, nothing serious can happen."
Ji Hongdao was obviously very confident in himself and said disapprovingly.
Since Ji Hongdao said so, Li Fan naturally did not continue to ask questions and stepped aside with Xue Mu.
Not long after, the thin man Shangguan Shi, who had met once in the Huanyu Villa, also came to the boat with five other people.
These five people were not members of the previous training camp. They were wearing the standard robes of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, had mature faces and capable manners.
It seemed that this was not their first time on this flying boat and they were very familiar with its structure.
After greeting Ji Hongdao, he went straight into the cabin.
When passing by Li Fan and Xue Mu, he nodded slightly.
Xue Mu didn't react to the other party's identity for a moment and just stood there.
Li Fan greeted the other party in an equally familiar manner.
When the other party's figure disappeared from his sight, Li Fan heard Xue Mu's serious voice asking for advice.
"Fellow Daoist Li Fan, you seem to know them? I wonder what their identities are?"
Li Fan quickly shook his head and said, "I don't know him. But we are all members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, and we are as close as a family. It's normal to just say hello when we meet."
Xue Mu was suddenly speechless and didn't know how to refute for a moment.
Fortunately, the fat man Huangfu Song rescued him.
"Let's go, don't stand there stupidly. Almost everyone is here, and we'll probably set off soon." Huangfu Song glanced at Li Fan, snorted, and gave the order.
Li Fan followed Huangfu Song as if he was following the lead of his senior.
Walking through the cabin corridor, Li Fan discovered that many people had already gathered on this flying boat.
It seems that it is not just the formation masters of the Formation Strategy Hall.
The murderous and bloody aura emanating from the monks in some rooms made Li Fan realize that this mission might not be as easy as Ji Hongdao said.
The two followed Huangfu Song to an empty cabin and sat down.
Li Fan asked Huangfu Song with a smile on his face: "Senior Huangfu, can you tell me what our mission goal is this time?"
Huangfu Song looked at Li Fan with a half-smile: "You kid, are you scared too?"
Li Fan admitted generously: "Of course, my courage is not comparable to yours. After all, even Tan Taitao and the others..."
"Stop! Stop!" Huangfu Song's face changed slightly, "Why do you keep talking about Tan Tai Tao every three sentences, kid?"
His eyes narrowed slightly, a dangerous light flashed in them, and he looked at Li Fan carefully.
After a while, Huangfu Song put away the murderous intent in his heart and a smile reappeared on his face.
"Humph, it doesn't hurt to tell you. Dean Ji didn't tell you because it's a long story and difficult to explain."
Huangfu Song knocked on the table in front of him carelessly, took a sip of the spiritual tea that suddenly appeared and was still steaming, and then said solemnly: "Our trip is to the depths of the white fog."
"Deep in the white fog?" Li Fan and Xue Mu looked at each other, slightly surprised.
But he didn't show it. He imitated Huangfu Song, tapped the table lightly, and drank the hot spiritual tea in one gulp.
Listen patiently to Huangfu Song’s story.
"As you know, there is a White Mist Barrier that stretches across the sky and earth, separating each state. Traveling through the white mist will cost you your lifespan. Even using a teleportation array cannot avoid this."
"So even we monks are unwilling to move frequently unless it is necessary."
Li Fan nodded slightly to show his agreement.
"It is precisely because of this reason that our understanding of the white mist is extremely limited."
"Most people believe that the white fog barrier only appeared on the original land and existed as a dividing line."
"But in fact..."
Huangfu Song smiled and said, "The white fog is far more vast than we imagined."
"So if you have nothing to do, don't be tempted to travel through time in your physical body. Otherwise, you might get lost in the vast white fog, and even the Heavenly Master won't be able to save you."
It was the first time that Xue Mu heard of such a thing, and his expression became nervous and solemn.
Li Fan thought about it and was not scared by Huangfu Song. He said, "Although there are not many cultivators who pass through the white mist barrier in their physical bodies every year, there are definitely many."
"I think the vast area in the white mist barrier that you mentioned is only a small area."
"Otherwise, if it was really as dangerous as described by the senior, it would have been discovered long ago."
Huangfu Song stopped talking immediately, feeling somewhat embarrassed when he was exposed by Li Fan.
But he immediately sneered and retorted: "I don't know how many monks have gone into the white fog and never returned, just thinking the same as you."
"If you are not afraid of death, you can try it boldly."
"It seems to be only a stone's throw away, but it is like a natural chasm that cannot be crossed. We call these places in the white fog barrier the "Maze"."
"I cannot reveal the number of puzzle areas that have been discovered so far. But it is definitely far beyond your imagination."
Huangfu Song saw Li Fan nodded in agreement and stopped being stubborn, and he felt relieved.
He then continued, "Our destination this time, [Chizha Abyss], is a mysterious area that was discovered a long time ago."
"As the name suggests, it is an area that extends infinitely downward in space. It is unfathomable and has no end."
"Every once in a while, there are inexplicable sounds of surprise, desperate roars, trance murmurs, and other different sounds coming from the bottom of the abyss."
"Ordinary cultivators or those with weak minds, once tempted by the voice, may go astray and their cultivation level may regress."
"In serious cases, they will lose their minds and become inhuman monsters who only know how to kill."
Huangfu Song seemed to recall something, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
"Because this maze is too strange, once discovered, it will be closely monitored by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance."
“So the alliance also discovered that the sound coming from the Chizha Abyss was getting louder and louder.”
Xue Mu couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard this: "It's getting louder and louder?"
Huangfu Song nodded: "Affected by this, the Eternal Immortal Fortress established by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance outside the Chizha Abyss has been forced to move upwards over the years."
“But in order to suppress the influence of the Demonic Sound within the range of the Chizha Abyss, the Eternal Immortal Barrier has no place to retreat.”
"So a hundred years ago, the alliance began to try to use some special methods to fight against the demonic sound coming from the bottom of the abyss."
"Special means? Could it be..." Li Fan suddenly remembered something and his heart moved.
