Chapter 193 Dark Lake



The next day, early morning.

Just like when they lived in Zhantian City, they also traveled to the Abyss from Poyuan City by airship.

The members of the Traceless Hunting Team gathered in the courtyard early in the morning, waiting for Ji Chen to appear.

Standing in the crowd, Jiang Wuyuan noticed that most of the dozens of people around him were sword cultivators above the sixth rank.

There are also a few scattered auxiliary cultivators.

That's normal, since sword cultivators also need healing and replenishment.

Who can resist a wet nurse?

Standing to Jiang Wuyuan's left was the sword-sharpening boy he had seen in the courtyard yesterday.

He doesn't look very old; in fact, judging by his face alone, he's probably not much older than Jiang Wuyuan.

However, the aura surrounding him was comparable to that of a peak Grandmaster.

The heavy sword he carried on his back was several centimeters taller than his entire body.

Seeing Jiang Wuyuan cast his gaze, Jin Quexie also looked back and discovered that it was the newcomer he had met once yesterday.

"Jin Quexie." His voice was clear and resonant, but his face carried a hint of arrogance.

"Jiang Wuyuan."

The two exchanged names and then looked away from each other.

...

One day later, at the Abyss Spaceship platform.

Having ridden in spaceships several times, Jiang Wuyuan was already very familiar with this process.

After landing with everyone, Ji Chen instructed them to take the purification orbs with them and then led the way into the depths.

The surrounding dark power had indeed become more intense, requiring not only the purification orb but also more energy and blood to resist its entry into the body.

However, Jiang Wuyuan noticed that the members of the hunting party around him all seemed quite relaxed.

That's true. After all, they are warriors who have been struggling in the abyss for a long time, so they can't be compared with students who are still in the academy.

Moreover, even the weakest among these people has already reached the early stage of Grandmaster.

Ji Chen was also secretly monitoring Jiang Wuyuan's condition.

He knew Jiang Wuyuan's cultivation level.

To be able to fight against a Grandmaster with a cultivation level that has not yet reached that of a Grandmaster is indeed a rare talent in the world.

However, because of his relatively low cultivation level, Ji Chen paid too much attention to him.

To his surprise, the kid adapted well and didn't seem to have expended much energy, which put Ji Chen at ease.

"These days, alien races are active frequently. If you encounter them on the road, don't hold back. Just fight your way through." Ji Chen's voice resounded in the ears of every member.

Everyone readily agreed.

And so, all along the way, the colorful sword lights never stopped.

There are quite a few people who possess the principles of swordsmanship.

The various sword techniques dazzled Jiang Wuyuan, and he benefited greatly from them.

Especially Jin Quexie, who had always been by his side.

He was ruthless, and his moves were not particularly flashy, but he was able to accurately target the weakest points in the alien race's defenses.

This remarkable insight even caught the attention of Jiang Wuyuan.

The enormous heavy sword seemed weightless in his hands.

This attitude reminded Jiang Wuyuan of Chu Yang.

Both wield greatswords, but one wields it with impressive skill and power, while the other seems to be using it like a dagger.

Precisely hitting weak points with clean and swift movements is typically the method of an assassin.

Come to think of it, it's been quite a while since we last met. I wonder how Chu Yang has been doing lately.

After a while, he snapped out of his thoughts.

When encountering low-level alien races that were relatively far away, Jiang Wuyuan directly controlled his flying sword to kill them one by one, earning Jin Quexie a slightly surprised look.

...

This time, the journey took almost half a day.

During their journey, they crossed a desert and a fractured valley. Finally, Ji Chen stopped beside a vast and boundless lake.

Although it is called a lake, it shows no trace of its former beauty.

Now, the lake is soaked by dark forces, turning into a pool of grayish-black wastewater that, from a distance, looks like a huge pool of dark silt.

And the facts are not far off.

When Ji Chen arrived with his men, they saw many soldiers in military uniforms holding air purifiers to clean the lake water.

Some military soldiers, who possessed purification talents and skills, were also busy at the edge of the lake.

Upon seeing the actual scene before them, even people like Ji Chen and Ji Yan, who had experienced too many abyssal wars, couldn't help but gasp in shock.

They had actually heard of this lake before.

It's considered a fairly well-known area in the abyss, since places with water are indeed rare in the abyss.

However, because it absorbs limited dark power and does not have a significant mental impact on humans like dark sludge, the Dragon Kingdom has not been able to deal with it.

Unexpectedly, the power of the abyss is now even more immense, directly eroding all the silt at the bottom of the lake and turning it into dark silt, making the lake water exceptionally viscous.

All around, a continuous stream of alien races rushed in.

"Traceless Hunting Team, heed my command! All troops, prepare for battle!" Ji Chen raised his sword and charged towards the fastest high-level alien.

This place is very close to the inner perimeter of the abyss, and there are basically no alien races or magical beasts below the fifth rank.

Looking around, the dark mass of high-level alien races was enough to send chills down one's spine.

However, Jiang Wuyuan showed no fear. He joined the crowd and rushed forward, protecting the military personnel responsible for clearing the dark mud behind him.

Golden sword light swept outwards, sending all the fifth-tier alien races that had surrounded them flying and cleaving them in two.

Beside him, Jin Quexie dragged his heavy sword, and the dense sword dao laws almost condensed into a substantial mist flowing around him.

Any alien race that approached him didn't even need to draw their swords; they were instantly reduced to dust by his exceptionally sharp sword techniques.

Jin Quexie stared intently at a sixth-tier peak alien in the back row, his pace quickening.

In the end, he was running on the ground, dragging his heavy sword.

The friction between weapon and ground was accompanied by brilliant sparks. Facing the thick black gas spewed from the alien's mouth, he stepped forward and leaped into the air.

The realm of no return!

The silvery-white sword energy was unstoppable, and the powerful sword law wrapped around it, tearing a huge gap in the black mist.

Jin Quexie turned around and stood with the alien race.

Jiang Wuyuan glanced at the situation on the field, summoned his flying sword, and used his divine soul to outline an array pattern around his body that almost covered the feet of half of the people.

The flying sword stood in mid-air, and Jiang Wuyuan raised his hand and pressed down.

Bloodbath Sword Formation! Begin!

Buzz—

In an instant, the eyes of all the human cultivators shrouded in the golden array patterns turned blood red.

Not only did his cultivation level temporarily improve, but his four-dimensional attributes also increased significantly.

Then the boy, clad in a sword array, raised his sword and flew towards the charging alien race.
