Hua Shi arrived faster than Fang Wei expected.
He knew Xuan Shuzhi and the others well. He knew that after his consciousness returned to the Abyss, Xuan Shuzhi would definitely choose to clarify many things with Hua Shi. However, entering the Abyss was not a matter of one day or one night. Even if he was anxious, there were still many things to be solved. They should continue to let Hua Shi improve until they were sure that Hua Shi had enough ability to enter the Abyss and come out safely.
However, the bad thing is that the black snakes also came to the abyss.
According to his calculations, if Xuan Shuzhi and others got the news that Black Snake appeared in the Abyss of Disaster, they should immediately realize that something was wrong, so it is very likely that they would take a gamble and try their best to let Hua Shi enter the Abyss of Disaster in advance to destroy Black Snake's plan and rescue him as soon as possible.
But this is not an easy decision to make. Although Xuan Shuzhi is calm and cautious in many cases, he will not ignore the opinions of others. Entering the Abyss of Disaster is an extremely dangerous thing. Xuan Shuzhi will definitely ask Hua Shi whether he is willing to come first.
And Hua Shi...
Hua Shi will definitely agree.
But even so, they have to discuss how to get here and deal with other people's obstruction. Even if Hua Shi and others arrive at the Abyss of Disaster, it will definitely take some time.
Fang Wei didn't expect him to come so soon, which made him doubt whether there was something wrong with his inference, or did Hua Shi encounter some accident?
Unfortunately, there were still many formations between him and Hua Shi outside. Under the influence of these formations, he couldn't even release his consciousness to check what was happening outside. Moreover, the monster Huo Yuan's attack today was obviously more difficult to deal with than usual. Fang Wei had no other choice but to concentrate on dealing with it.
After an unknown amount of time, the formation above his head suddenly loosened, and the giant beast in front of him let out a deep roar, and the suppressed power actually recovered a little.
It seems that Black Snake has found a way to unlock the seal of the behemoth.
Time is running out.
If he waited until the black snakes destroyed the sealing formation further, the monster's power would be restored further, and he might not even be able to die together with it.
But Hua Shi is outside now...
Fang Wei calmed down, loosened his right hand that was holding the magic formula, and rolled up his sleeves to avoid the black snake's new attack.
Maybe I can wait a little longer, he thought to himself.

At this time, in the deep valley of the abyss, above the underground cave, Hua Shi was still chasing Jiang Tingwan's footsteps.
Jiang Tingwan moved quickly, as if he was in a hurry to solve something. Hua Shi thought about it and felt that the things in this abyss of disaster were probably only related to one person. He followed Jiang Tingwan's footsteps with difficulty and opened his mouth to ask several questions, but Jiang Tingwan ignored him, so he could only swallow those words in his heart.
Could it be that Senior Jiang brought him to the bottom of the abyss to save the evil master Fang Wei?
Hua Shi couldn't explain how he felt. Whenever he thought of this possibility, he couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved and helpless. The emotions that had been slightly suppressed because of the sudden accident surged up from the bottom of his heart again like a flood, and Hua Shi's eyes turned red again.
Everyone wanted to rescue Fang Wei, but no one helped him find Liu Qishuang. Everyone lied to him, but no one thought about what he was thinking. In the past, he could tell Liu Qishuang about his worries, but now he kept calling out in his mind, but he could no longer get the familiar response.
Should he...
His continuous thoughts were suddenly interrupted here, because at this moment, there was a sudden loud noise of huge rocks collapsing in the desolate and dark valley, and a dull roar that came from nowhere and seemed to cover the entire valley.
Hua Shi opened his eyes in astonishment and looked into the distance. At this moment, he felt an unprecedented shock and intimidation, and froze in place, almost unable to move. He had never heard such a sound before, as if all the clouds above the nine heavens exploded with thunder at the same time, as if the waves in the sea rolled up huge waves of ten thousand feet. The sound seemed to ring from his ears, but it shook his soul and made him unable to move.
He soon noticed that not only himself, but even Jiang Tingwan who was walking in front of him was also affected by the low roar. He originally thought that this was because his cultivation was too low, but now it seems that the unknown guy who made the sound was too powerful.
As Hua Shi listened to the voice, he suddenly remembered the altar he had seen in the ancient tribe ruins in Frost Forest Valley, and the story written on the altar stone tablet, the story about sacrificing a giant beast.
Later, Liu Qishuang also told him about the connection between the giant beast and the black snake in the past. At this time, when he heard this strange sound, everything seemed to be connected in an instant.
Hua Shi moved his body with difficulty and finally managed to regain control of his limbs. He stepped forward and quickly rushed to Jiang Tingwan's side and asked hurriedly: "Senior Jiang, is that monster really going to come out?"
Jiang Tingwan did not answer. He continued walking forward with a tense face. Hua Shi had no choice but to continue chasing him. After a while, the blood mist in front of them gradually dissipated. Hua Shi followed Jiang Tingwan to a place where huge rocks collapsed and finally saw the situation in front of him clearly.
He saw dozens of black snakes coiled on the rocks in front of him. Many of them were emitting blood, and there were many small wounds that were oozing blood.
These black snakes are indeed here.
Hua Shi thought that this group of black snakes were injured by something in the abyss, so they became like this, but he soon realized that something was wrong. The black snakes clearly made themselves look like this, and the blood oozing from their bodies dragged another trace on the ground and the surrounding stones as they moved, and the trace gradually formed a strange pattern.
Staring at the pattern on the ground, Hua Shi gradually felt familiar with it, but he didn't know what it was for. But it was obvious that the actions of the group of black snakes must be related to the monster that made the sound just now.
Just as Xuan Shuzhi had said to them not long ago, the black snakes were trying to find a way to rescue the monsters in the abyss, and their actions were clearly faster than he had imagined.
And if this monster comes out from deep underground, the entire Xuanqing Continent will be in danger.
At this moment, Hua Shi had almost no hesitation and immediately summoned the Lingsha Sword. Even though he was deceived and abducted by Jiang Tingwan, he had to stop the group of black snakes at this time.
He gritted his teeth and swung out two swords to force back the two black snakes in front of him. He noticed that the strength of these black snakes seemed to be much weakened in the Abyss of Misfortune compared to before. He quickly turned back and asked Jiang Tingwan, "Senior, what should I do next?"
Jiang Tingwan looked ahead expressionlessly, his mind drifting to who knows where. Hua Shi knew that Jiang Tingwan's mental state was not weak to begin with, and asking him might be of no use. After a moment, he finally gave up, knowing that now that he had come here, he was no longer protected by his predecessors, and without Liu Qishuang's company. If he encountered danger next, he would have to rely on himself to solve it.
However, at this moment, he suddenly heard Jiang Tingwan's dry voice: "Protect..."
Hua Shi had just dealt with a black snake. When he heard the voice, he turned around quickly, looked at Jiang Tingwan in surprise and said, "Senior, were you the one talking just now?"
Jiang Tingwan frowned and raised his right hand to support his forehead. Veins gradually popped out on the back of his hand. It seemed that even standing was quite strenuous for him. However, under Hua Shi's gaze, he still managed to squeeze out a few more words with difficulty: "Protect... the stone pillar... cannot be, destroyed..."
Hua Shi murmured, "Stone pillar?"
He turned around and looked nearby. Through the thin blood mist, he finally saw a number of stone pillars standing around with strange black marks on them. The traces of collapse where the group of black snakes had been just now were obviously the appearance of one of the stone pillars after it collapsed.
After hearing Jiang Tingwan's words, Hua Shi immediately perked up and said, "Senior Jiang, please rest assured. I will definitely stop these black snakes."
Even if it was for Liu Qishuang who had exhausted her strength to buy time for them, he had to stop these guys.
·
While Hua Shi was fighting the black snake, a battle was also taking place in a cave deep underground.
Fang Wei could clearly feel that the fight with the monster was becoming more and more difficult. It had been difficult to fight the opponent to a draw since the day when his consciousness returned. Now, with the sound of collapse outside, everything became even more difficult to control.
Fang Wei couldn't be sure how much strength the other party had recovered, but it was obvious that the behavior of the black snake outside did have a huge impact on the giant beast.
But this was impossible. Even if the formation outside was slightly damaged, the monster's ability was still suppressed. It shouldn't have recovered its strength so quickly, unless there was some reason he didn't understand.
Just as he was wondering, there was another sound coming from above the cave, but this time it was not the sound of rocks collapsing, but the sound of a sword cutting through the ground and the sound of something hitting something.
Fang Wei was almost immediately certain that it was Hua Shi who was taking action at this time.
It seems that Hua Shi has found the group of black snakes and is now fighting with them. However, he doesn't know how many black snakes there are. Hua Shi should be the only one who can enter the abyss. If others enter rashly, they will inevitably find it difficult to escape. With Hua Shi's current level, he doesn't know whether he can deal with them.
As the Hua Shi fought with the black snake, the giant beast seemed to be affected by something and its movements began to become slow. Fang Wei seized the opportunity and was finally able to pause from the monster's attack.
At this moment, his eyes fell downwards. The giant beast had been curled up in the cave in the same posture all year round. Even when it fought with Fang Wei, it mostly used spiritual power and tentacles. In the battle just now, the giant beast was clearly more serious than before, so its huge body moved slightly away.
But it was this slight movement that allowed Fang Wei to see the ground beneath it clearly.
There was a formation drawn there.
That was the formation that Fang Wei was extremely familiar with. It was the formation that had appeared at the statue of Xuanqing Spirit in Tianqing City and in the woods outside Tianqing City. It was the formation that opened the door to the spiritual realm!
No one knew when, but the giant beast actually drew such a formation under its body.
Fang Wei's heart sank slightly, and he immediately understood.
He had always felt that the black snake's purpose was not pure. Later, the giant beast's power recovered abnormally, which made him even more suspicious. Until now, he finally saw the formation under the giant beast.
His inference turned out to be correct.
The black snakes originally disrupted the Xuanqing Continent in order to move the gate to the Spirit Realm outside Tianqing City.
People thought that this was their purpose, but it was not. Only now did Fang Wei understand that moving the Spirit Realm Gate outside Tianqing City was not their purpose. They had already copied the formations from various places in Xuanqing Continent when they opened the Spirit Realm Gate outside Tianqing City, and redistributed them in other places.
And the center of the formation is right here, right under the giant beast.
The purpose of the black snakes is not to destroy the seal of the abyss and rescue the giant beast, but to open a new formation and use this underground cave as a new entrance to the spiritual realm. As long as the door to the spiritual realm is opened, the giant beast will be able to enter the spiritual realm through this door, and the formation that imprisoned it will naturally fall apart.
What the black snakes outside are doing now is definitely not to destroy the formation, but to find a way to open the door to the spiritual realm. The reason why they have not succeeded now is probably that the formation under the abyss of disaster has prevented their spiritual power from entering.
But if Hua Shi wants to rescue him, then once the underground formation is loosened, the door to the spiritual realm will be completely opened.
By that time the beast would have escaped into the spiritual realm, and no one would be able to stop it.
And it will definitely return to Xuanqing Continent in the future.
