"Could it be for Kang Tae-chu …?"
As for Long Shengnan, her eyes flashed with understanding. She looked at Jiang Tian and was filled with mixed emotions.
Kang Tae-chu was too strong!
He alone had killed dozens of Nascent Soul realm cultivators. Even Long Pojun had been captured. Even Man Gu of the God of War List had been killed. To Qi Jiuyi, who was only at the Golden Core realm, this was terrifying. He did not dare to resist.
Even if Qi Jiuyi did not dare to follow Jiang Tian to resist the Ruins Emperor, he would at least secretly express goodwill to Jiang Tian. He would not help or offend either side.
Long Shengnan was a little dazed. She felt like she was in a dream.
In tens of thousands of years, this was the first time a cultivator was so domineering. He dared to resist the Ruins Emperor, and he was gradually gaining power.
"Everyone, let's move out now!"
Following that, Qi Liqi gave the order.
"Charge!"
Many cultivators immediately got into formation. Like a fleet of supersonic fighter jets, they soared from the city walls and charged towards the Ancient Demon Abyss.
Ancient Demon Abyss, a hundred miles deep.
After passing through the wide entrance and officially entering the abyss, one would feel that this place was a completely different world from the outside world.
The vegetation was strangely lush. Many vines were like dormant dragons, covered in black scales. They extended out from the sides of the huge trees and had strange shapes. They even had mouths and noses, as though they were sentient. The branches were like the claws of monsters.
If a cultivator appeared, then the black scaled demonized vines would immediately shoot out like pythons and brutally strangle the cultivator to death. After that, the vines and branches would swarm over like tentacles and devour the cultivator's flesh and blood until there was nothing left.
Therefore, it was common to see piles of white bones. They were dim and almost decayed. They were cultivators that had been killed and devoured.
The terrain was complicated. There were jagged rocks, cliffs, and abysses that were abnormally dangerous. Between the trees that covered the sky, there were countless strange and powerful violent demon beasts.
Clouds covered the area, and visibility was very low. The lead-like dark clouds and colorful miasma intertwined. Heavy rain would occasionally fall from the clouds, and huge lightning bolts would explode. They were like dragons baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, about to devour all life.
"Senior, why did everyone abandon the dragon horses, green luan, and other spiritual beasts and insist on flying on flying swords?"
Ao Jiao frowned.
"Here, there are a lot of violent demon beasts. Their psychic power is ferocious, and their pressure is great. Moreover, there are a lot of ancient array formations. Many of these array formations have been damaged, and their spiritual energy is in disorder, causing mental interference. I'm afraid the Spirit Birds and Spirit Beasts will go crazy if they come here! "
Jiang Tian explained.
This logic was similar to how you couldn't ride a horse into a wolf's den or a tiger's den. The horse was too weak and would be frightened.
"My Lord, you're right. There are many demonic beasts, and there are also strange fluctuations. Even sound transmission artifacts are affected. Long-distance voice transmissions were almost useless. Therefore, once there is danger, it is almost impossible to get outside help! "
Long Pojun nodded. "A cultivator's Divine Sense will also be disrupted. That's why we have to be as compact as possible!"
Berserk demonic beasts roared, and ancient species appeared. All kinds of terrifying sounds rose and fell. They came from the distance, shaking the mountains and rivers. Ten thousand trees swayed, as if they were going to tear this world apart.
Furthermore, Jiang Tian had a feeling that the magnetic force in the abyss was very strong. The gravity was several times stronger than the outside world, and the deeper he went, the stronger the gravity became.
"This is the effect of the Golden Crow Ancient Emperor's restriction formation in the Rushing Current Valley!"
Long Pojun transmitted with his Divine Sense.
"In the Rushing Current Valley, the gravity and magnetic force are at least ten times stronger than the outside world. It's like everyone's weight has increased by ten times. A normal Foundation Establishment cultivator would be crushed to death if they went in! Only a Golden Core cultivator would be able to withstand it. Even so, their Dharmic powers and abilities would be greatly restricted! "
This logic was very simple. It was like how a normal person only weighed a hundred kilograms, but if the gravity was increased by ten times, that person would immediately become a thousand kilograms. It was like being crushed by a giant rock and would immediately become a meat patty.
Jiang Tian nodded and said calmly, "Berserk demonic beasts live here for a long time. It's like they are constantly cultivating and strengthening their bodies. Therefore, the demonic beasts here have extremely tough bodies and are even stronger! "
"My Lord is wise. That is indeed the case!"
Long Pojun bowed.
"You were able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage and take human form because you used the restriction formation to increase your weight, right?"
Jiang Tian said with a smile.
"My Lord, your plan is flawless!" Long Pojun didn't deny it.
Suddenly.
"Everyone, be careful!"
Guard Guo came to Jiang Tian's side and glanced at him. Then, he scanned all the cultivators of Yong City and said in a low voice,
"We have already entered the Ancient Demon Abyss. This place is different from the outside world. It is very evil. Even a tree or a blade of grass can be demonized. It is very dangerous. Therefore, everyone must be extra careful. Don't leave the array carelessly! "
The team that Cangwu Palace had assembled this time was very large.
Other than the hundreds of cultivators from Yong City, there were also cultivators from many sects and cities. In total, there were at least three thousand people.
They flew dozens of miles above the ground. This distance didn't consume too much Dharmic powers, and they also maintained a certain distance from the demonic beasts, strange trees, and strange vines.
Even if a flying-type demonic beast approached them, thousands of Dharma treasures and flying swords would immediately kill it.
Even if these berserk demonic beasts were killed, their blood essence, Demonic Cores, and Demonic Cores would be invaluable. However, no one would casually pick up the treasures.
Qi Liqi ordered that no one was to act on their own. There was only one goal: the Immortal Divine Herb.
"Guard Guo, you have spent a lot of money today! You have almost wasted your time on this expedition. "
Along the way, Guo Shouwei stayed close to Jiang Tian and the others, as he was afraid that something would happen to them. He even had to help Jiang Tian fend off the attacks of the flying beasts twice. Jiang Tian sensed Shi Yan's concern and worry, so he smiled and sent him a message using his soul consciousness.
"Sigh. One cannot go back on one's word! I originally promised to give you five million crystals, but I didn't expect Perfected Lord Hei Ou to interfere. I couldn't persuade him, but I can't let you suffer and break my promise! "
Guo Shouwei flew close to Jiang Tian's body. Mystic Water surrounded him as he scanned the surroundings vigilantly. He smiled bitterly and sighed.
"This kid is a loyal and trustworthy person. His cultivation level is also not bad. If I obtain this world in the future, I will put him in an important position! "
Jiang Tian smiled and thought to himself.
One thousand miles, two thousand miles, three thousand miles …
Initially, everyone was more relaxed. However, when they were two thousand miles deep, a Golden Core berserk demon beast appeared and devoured more than ten Foundation Establishment Cultivators before retreating calmly, everyone started to be cautious. The battle formations shrunk and resonated with one another. Many Dharma treasures were released and floated at the periphery, ready to strike.
After three thousand miles, the number of berserk demon beasts increased and Golden Core berserk demon beasts even appeared frequently. A Golden Core Perfected Lord, dozens of Foundation Establishment Cultivators and hundreds of cultivators were injured before they started to slow down.
"Fellow Daoists, let's land on that empty ground and rest for a while before we set off!"
Suddenly, Princess Li Qi's order came from the front.
Right now, more than a hundred cultivators in the camp were injured.
They had to consume elixirs to raise their essence qi and recover their bodies before they could set off once more. Otherwise, they would be a burden to everyone.
Everyone looked down and saw an empty ground with a radius of a thousand miles. The ground was reddish-brown and there was not much vegetation. Jagged rocks were everywhere and there were no flowers or trees. In fact, there were no birds, beasts, insects or fishes.
It was just a barren and desolate area filled with bare rocks without any signs of life. However, the trees at the periphery were not as lush and terrifying.
Instead, the plants were short and neat with a radius of more than ten miles with some red fruits. It was not suitable for large demon beasts to hide and it looked like a good place to recuperate.
"Yes!"
Many cultivators replied and were about to land when Jiang Tian sighed softly. "This place is dangerous and it's not suitable for us to set up camp. Don't court death!"
Jiang Tian's spirit consciousness was transmitted to everyone.
None of them listened to him and mocked him.
"There's not even a bird in this place and you're saying it's dangerous? A Foundation Establishment weakling is a weakling and cowardly as a mouse. We shouldn't have brought him along! "
"That's right. He hasn't even made a move from the beginning. He's just here to pick up scraps! How shameless! "
"You're not qualified to comment here. Just do as you're told!"
This was the first time Qi Liqi looked at Jiang Tian since the start of the operation. However, her face was filled with disdain as she berated him sternly.
In her eyes, Jiang Tian was merely a lazy Foundation Establishment Cultivator with a weak cultivation. His participation in the operation was purely to fish in troubled waters and earn crystals.
Furthermore, he did not care about the lives of the other injured cultivators and did not dare to land in a safe zone. He was selfish, cowardly, evil and stupid.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, what's so dangerous about this place? Don't spout nonsense and don't send spirit consciousness voice transmissions. Your authority is too low and you're only a lowly hired cultivator. You can only communicate with Perfected Lord Black Gull or Guo Shouwei with your spirit consciousness! "
Madam Xu frowned and hollered.
