Chapter 99: Secret Realm of the Abyss (1)
Jiang Yan's words were of little use. Ji Weihang already knew these sources of information.
But Ji Weihang did not expect to get any useful information from Jiang Qian, he just asked casually.
Just as Jiang Yan said, she was still young fifty years ago.
The monster race has strong animal instincts when they are young, or it can be said that is their nature, their monster nature.
The demon tribe does not restrain or suppress the nature of their young; they play freely almost every day and are not too aware of these incidents within the tribe.
After going through the growth spurt, they will instantly grow up and mature a lot and will no longer be so naughty.
And the reason why she agreed to take Jiang Yan with her...
If you want to venture into the secret realm of the abyss, what's wrong with having more demon princes?
Especially when she was sure that the secret realm of the abyss must be targeting her dragon pool and tiger school.
Ji Weihang released Ji Chengyuan from the Chaos Furnace.
"Are you ready to agree to me?" Ji Chengyuan still lay on the ground, opened his eyes lazily, met Jiang Yan's purple eyes, blinked, and smiled, "Isn't this the little phoenix whose tail I burned? Long time no see."
"It's been a long time..." Jiang Yan realized that Ji Chengyuan had failed in the game, and a hint of pity appeared on her face. She did not mock her for running away so quickly. "I won't bother with you. We are no longer on the same level."
Fu Xuan sighed.
They are all so out of tune.
How could she feel at ease letting her sister go with them?
She was determined to quickly improve her strength and become her sister's strongest support!
"Look here." Ji Weihang drew their attention to himself, "Ji Chengyuan, with Ying Feiqiong's memories and the information about the demons' movements fifty years ago, I will take you to the secret realm of the abyss."
Ji Chengyuan quickly agreed: "Deal!"
Fu Xuan frowned in surprise. Ji Chengyuan didn't take advantage of the situation?
Ji Weihang proposed to swear an oath to the heaven, and Ji Chengyuan agreed.
The man and the demon swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao, and then they shed a little blood. The blood mixed together, emitted golden light, disappeared before their eyes, and merged into the rules of the Heavenly Dao.
After making the oath, Ji Weihang untied Ji Chengyuan and asked her to hand over her memory first.
She still didn't trust Ji Chengyuan.
Ji Chengyuan took out the memories from his mind and put them into the crystal, but attached a layer of oath protection on the outside, indicating that it would open automatically after the promise was fulfilled.
Ji Weihang stuffed the memory into the Kungan bag and looked at Fu Xuan, "While you and the others are in the Abyss Secret Realm, I will give you the authority to stay here and practice."
Fu Xuan nodded, "Okay. Be careful." She knew she shouldn't have followed, but she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"Yes." Ji Weihang said, "I'll give you a haircut when I come back."
Ji Chengyuan took a look at Fu Xuan's untidy short hair and interrupted, "Cut it for me too."
Fu Xuan glared at Ji Chengyuan.
This guy who threatened my sister with her hair dared to say such things.
Thinking that Ji Chengyuan had forgotten nothing, Fu Xuan felt a little aggrieved.
"You have a bad temper." Receiving her gaze, Ji Chengyuan curled his lips and said, "You are so petty. You are so xenophobic. You are not popular."
Ji Weihang interrupted the endless conversation and said, "She doesn't need to be liked."
Ji Weihang gave Ji Chengyuan and Jiang Qian communication talismans and transmission talismans to connect them, to ensure that they would not be separated after entering the secret realm of the abyss.
Equip your weapons and then set off.
The Xianyu Secret Realm is everywhere, which means that it is also possible to bypass the entrance to the Abyss Secret Realm and enter the Abyss Secret Realm.
We just need to find a breakthrough.
After saying goodbye to Fu Xuan, Ji Weihang used Ji Chengyuan's blood to search for a breakthrough to the secret realm of the abyss.
Based on Ji Weihang's research over the years, she knew that it was possible to reach any location in the Jijiang Continent from any point in this secret realm.
It’s just that practice is different from theory.
Ji Weihang is not the owner of this place, but only a guest with some permissions. She cannot "open the door" at will, and must find a location with a stronger corresponding connection.
There are many ways to strengthen the mysterious connection.
One of them is that like attracts like.
Ji Chengyuan's blood floated in the air, pointing out a direction. They moved in that direction and soon reached the end - a dried-up river, the riverbed of which was now full of blooming bright flowers.
Ji Weihang's hand was suspended above the river. Soon, the space twisted and an exit opened.
Ji Weihang pulled Ji Chengyuan and jumped in first, followed closely by Jiang Qian.
A man, a demon and a monster entered the secret realm of the abyss.
They appeared five meters in the air.
Instead of falling naturally, they hung in the air, observing their surroundings.
The hot, barren, endless red and black land replaced the spring scenery of colorful flowers, green willows, singing birds and fragrant flowers.
There are wide cracks everywhere, with red lava flowing slowly and meandering through them;
Thick black smoke was rising from the ground in the distance, the sky was dark, and thick black and red clouds covered the sun.
The air was filled with visible dust and a pungent, nauseating smell.
"...It stinks." As soon as she came in, Jiang Qian frowned and covered her nose, looking at the man and the demon who remained calm, "Are your noses just for show?"
She took out a green gauze and patted it on her face. It flowed like water, naturally and fittingly following the contours of her face and wrapping around her mouth and nose.
When the hot wind blows, the fresh scent of grass and trees is particularly prominent here, making people feel refreshed.
They took a closer look, and Jiang Yan noticed and took out two, "Do you want them?"
“…”
Don’t miss it.
They all wore veils specially made for the demon race.
Ji Chengyuan introduced the man and the demon to each other.
There are three levels in the Abyss Secret Realm, from low to high: Flame Abyss, Cold Abyss, and Spring Abyss.
They were located in the lowest level of the Flame Abyss, where the ambient temperature was extremely high and a large number of Flame Demons lived underground. As long as they did not set foot on the ground, they would not be alarmed.
In order to reach the target location, the Tomb of the Demon Emperor, located at the highest level of Chunyuan, you need to find the corresponding teleportation portal and go up one level at a time.
But Ji Chengyuan didn't know where the portal was.
Facing the indescribable looks from the man and the demon, Ji Chengyuan said calmly, "I can't even pass the checkpoint at the entrance to the secret realm, how can I know where the portal inside the secret realm is? I heard it's mobile."
Jiang Yan regarded this as an exciting and fun sightseeing trip after she was freed. She didn't care whether she could find the destination or not. She observed the barren ground below with great interest.
Ji Weihang looked at the place where the black smoke was coming out in the distance and said, "Let's go there first."
They did not land on the ground, but just floated in the air and continued on their journey.
After a while, Ji Weihang was the first to stop walking, and Ji and Jiang also stopped tacitly.
"The distance between us and it has not changed." said Ji Weihang.
They flew for nearly half an incense stick of time [Note 1], but the distance between them did not change at all.
Although the ground beneath their feet contained no identifiable landmarks, they could tell that they were going in circles.
"Illusion?" Jiang Qian looked at Ji Chengyuan.
The demons who have been deeply involved in this field shook their heads.
"It's a spatial rule." As soon as Ji Weihang finished speaking, the demons around her disappeared without a trace, leaving only her and the demons that suddenly appeared not far away.
She drew her sword from its sheath, and phoenix fire swirled around her body, with the sound of a phoenix faintly audible.
“I heard that the Danfeng Sword was made by melting the soul of a Phoenix Demon King.” The demon not far away made a hoarse voice and said with a smile, “Fortunately I separated you, otherwise it would be embarrassing for the Phoenix to see you.”
Ji Weihang could feel that Jiang Yan and the others were still not far away from him, but similar to the situation when he met Jingyue among the flying birds, they were separated by an invisible space.
"You are Amuda, right?"
The mottled and messy black runes on the demon's face twisted with a smile, "I didn't expect that there would be a human child who could recognize my identity at a glance."
Amuda was active more than a thousand years ago and was famous in the mainland for creating the "Swallowing the Sky and Spitting the Earth" technique.
After the great war between humans and demons four hundred years ago, as "Swallowing the Heaven and Spitting the Earth" was listed as a forbidden technique, she gradually disappeared.
Rumor has it that she was considered a threat by Hime and was secretly killed.
...I didn't expect to encounter such a difficult enemy as soon as I came in.
Amuda, this knowledgeable demon may be more difficult to deal with than the current Demon Emperor Ji Ni.
…
Jiang Yan slowly adjusted her breathing to get herself into the best condition, and asked cautiously, "What is your purpose?"
Ji Chengyuan stepped forward and said, "Grandma, please let me go to see my mother."
To different questions, Amda gave the same answer:
"After passing nine difficult levels, you can reach the cemetery."
Ji Weihang frowned.
If it doesn't make sense, there must be something fishy going on.
Jiang Yan said, "If I don't go, does that mean I don't have to go through the level?"
Now that doesn't sound like a relaxing sightseeing trip, and going through the magic level alone? Smart demons won't do that.
Ji Chengyuan asked: "Do we have to go through the customs separately?"
...I want to find someone to take me flying.
There was no answer. Amuda disappeared, and the scene in front of their eyes changed, showing the same scene:
Thick black smoke spurted out regularly from the crack that was tens of meters wide. Through the smoke, one could see the black hole that spewed out the smoke contracting and expanding rhythmically.
Suddenly, accompanied by a buzzing sound, the ground shook, and a strong airflow "puffed" out from the ground, and black dust flew.
And they also saw that the air flow was coming out of a huge mouth.
It turns out that the thick black smoke is the gas exhaled by the fire demon underground.
Amuda's voice rang out:
"The first level, work together to kill the Flame Demon King."
"Please be careful, the attack will penetrate space and hurt your companions."
"The damage to your companions will be synchronized."
"If one dies, the other two will die too."
Ji Weihang: “…” Such a familiar feeling…it’s definitely a trap.
Jiang Yan was getting impatient: "Why not just do it if you want to kill or chop me up? Why are you going through all this trouble?"
I don't believe that he can really kill Ji Chengyuan. He must be targeting the two of them.
Ji Chengyuan: "Grandma...you are not serious?"
Although I am not your biological grandson and we have only met a few times, didn’t you say that you would take care of me for the rest of my life?
Amda's voice was not heard again.
Jiang Qian frowned and looked at the Flame Demon King below, lost in thought, and did not rush to attack.
At this time, blood was flowing from his left arm.
Jiang Yan looked at the scars and words on her arm: "Human, mouth."
She looked around, moved, cut open the skin below the line of rapid healing, and wrote: "Oh, left."
She waited for a moment, but there was no sign of the third word, so she wrote a question mark alone.
This time, the writing appeared quickly, a long paragraph: "Are you using encrypted calls?"
“…” Although it was well known that the demons were not good at thinking, this still made Yao a little unbelievable.
It's so stupid, why do those humans put them together?
When Jiang Yan was secretly complaining, Ji Weihang had already replied, "Go and hit the lower body."
"roar--!"
A roar that echoed through the sky rang out, and the Fire Demon King opened his eyes angrily, pushed away the ground that served as his bedding, and slowly stood up.
There was a flickering fire in the orange-red vertical pupils, and hot magma flowed on the hard surface of the body, dripping onto the ground, and smoking with a "hiss".
Who dares to disturb its sweet dream!
