After thinking for a moment, Su Yu could not figure it out.
At that moment, it was finally time to depart.
When he arrived at the courtyard, Mo Wu was already waiting outside.
Her proud figure stood quietly in the courtyard.
Under the warm sunlight, her classical figure was slender and elegant, as beautiful as a flower.
"Let's go," Mo Wu said softly without turning her head. She took light steps, leading the way.
It turned out that she had been waiting for Su Yu.
Su Yu smiled as he followed. His eyes reflected her beautiful figure, waves of fragrance wafting into his nose.
At the assembly point outside the sanctum, the other three were already there.
The Fourth Elder secretly stared at Su Yu, looking at his finger. The Divine Ice Ring had already disappeared.
The Fourth Elder sighed in disappointment. "In the end, it was still taken back by the Second Elder."
Su Yu had exposed the divine artifact to the world, attracting covetous eyes. If the Second Elder did not take it back, Su Yu would be in danger.
But now, that sliver of hope had been extinguished.
At that moment, five giant birds descended. They were the unique means of transportation of the Liuxian faction.
Back then, when they descended on Shenyue Island, Su Yu could only look up to them.
But now, they could be killed with a flick of a finger.
Even though they were slightly smaller than the eagles heading to Shenyue Island, their abilities were not much different.
Su Yu could not help but sigh at the huge difference in just half a year.
"The journey is long, hence we are using eagles. There are a total of five red eagles. The five of you will share four of them," the Fourth Elder calmly said, flying onto the largest eagle.
The remaining four eagles were split among the five disciples.
Two of them were destined to squeeze onto the same eagle.
Even though the eagle was not small, it was a little crowded for two people.
Presumably, no one wanted to share it with others.
Whoosh —
Su Yu reacted quickly. Without a second word, he headed toward the closest eagle and took the lead.
But just as Su Yu was about to fly onto one of the eagles.
Suddenly, a cold gust of wind came from behind him!
Even though it did not contain spirit energy, the gust of wind from the palm contained a powerful cold current.
Su Yu was sent flying three meters to the side.
Whoosh —
A sound pierced through the air, piercing through the air.
Looking over, the person who snatched it was Tang Yixuan, a Sixth Level Holy King!
As for the other three, they had already been decided on as disciples, so he did not dare to snatch them away. Only Su Yu, like him, was someone who did not have any backing.
If they didn't rob him, who else would they rob?
"Get lost!" Tang Yixuan flicked his finger and a bolt of energy attacked Su Yu. Su Yu had no choice but to take a few steps back.
Su Yu clenched his fists, feeling slightly angry.
He wanted to look for the rest of the eagles, but they were all occupied!
He was left alone with nowhere to hide.
The Fourth Elder's expression was calm. He turned a blind eye to this and said indifferently, "Prepare to depart!"
Puchi —
The five eagles immediately flapped their wings and prepared to fly.
Tang Yixuan's cold eyes swept past Su Yu and he said indifferently, "You entered the abyss of Wutong by relying on luck. You are not fit to ride the same carriage as me, Tang Yixuan!"
After he finished speaking, he piloted the eagle and soared into the sky.
The other eagles also left one after another.
In the blink of an eye, the eagle disappeared.
However, the Black Dancing Eagle was still hovering in mid-air.
On the back of the eagle, Mo Wu was meditating with her legs crossed. Her eyes were closed and her back was facing Su Yu.
At that moment, without turning her head, she said coldly, "Do you want me to invite you up?"
Su Yu smiled and flew up, "Thank you, Senior Mo."
Mo Wu was cold and did not respond. She piloted the eagle and chased after them.
Only when she caught up with Tang Yixuan's eagle did she slightly open her eyes. When she glanced at Tang Yixuan, she said indifferently, "Do you want me to help you teach him a lesson?"
"No need! We men should solve our own problems! I will personally repay you for today's slap! "Su Yu looked at Tang Yixuan coldly and looked away expressionlessly.
Mo Wu slowly closed her eyes and replied coldly, "Up to you."
After she finished speaking, she focused on her cultivation and ignored Su Yu's existence.
Su Yu was grateful and he also sat cross-legged to cultivate.
However, the back of the eagle was small and it was easier for one person to cultivate.
However, it was slightly crowded for two people.
As Su Yu sat cross-legged, his knees inevitably touched Mo Wu's thighs.
The soft and hot sensation traveled from his knees to his heart.
Coupled with the delicate fragrance, it made Su Yu feel strange and awkward.
Mo Wu, who had her eyes closed, could not help but open her eyes and stare coldly at Su Yu.
However, this place was narrow and she could only silently endure.
...
In the Liuxian faction, the Faction Master and a few Elders gathered together.
Other than the Second Elder, who was in seclusion, and the Fourth Elder, who was guarding the abyss of Wutong, the rest of the Elders were present.
The Faction Master and the rest sat around a round table.
On the table were four pitch-black tokens, engraved with the word "Empire".
Looking at the four tokens, the higher-ups present had serious expressions and the atmosphere was tense.
"Three of the tokens were found in the Wolong Snowfield, and the last one was found in the ocean." The Faction Master frowned and sank into deep thought.
"Above the ocean, the silver-robed guards of the Empire of Darkness robbed the new disciples of the Liuxian faction. At the Wolong Snowfield, the silver-robed guards of the Empire of Darkness robbed the Liuxian faction's treasures … What do you all think about this?" The Faction Master asked in a low voice.
The Third Elder said seriously, "In my opinion, it is time to inform the alliance and inform them of this matter. The Empire of Darkness has already extended its tentacles into the Liuxian faction. We have no way out."
Everyone was nervous. The Empire of Darkness was a taboo existence in the Zhenlong continent.
It was like a formless blade was placed on the necks of every faction.
If they provoked it, they would be turned into ashes in an instant!
"What if the Empire of Darkness seeks revenge in advance? After all, we have already mistakenly killed four disciples of the Empire of Darkness! The one above the ocean was killed by an unknown person, so we can still justify it. But the three from the Wolong Snowfield were killed by our faction's disciples! "The Fifth Elder was worried.
Hearing this, the entire place was silent.
Finally, the Faction Master was silent for a moment, then sighed, "If … that day really comes, we can only give up on that disciple …"
Ten days later, they had already crossed the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The journey was millions of miles, more than ten times larger than Shenyue Island!
The vastness of the Zhenlong continent was an eye-opener for Su Yu.
He just did not know if the Liuxian faction was the only faction in the Zhenlong continent.
Thinking back to the Empire of Darkness, Su Yu shook his head. There might be other factions besides the Liuxian faction, but he did not know if the Liuxian faction or the Empire of Darkness was stronger or weaker.
Chirp —
Following the cries of eagles, numerous eagles finally descended.
They landed in a misty primordial forest.
Ancient trees stood tall and majestic.
The vicissitudes of time had changed the landscape of this place. No one could recognize the true state of this place ten thousand years ago.
But there was one imprint that even time could not change!
That was … a palm print!
If one were to look down from the Ninth Heaven, they would see a huge palm print that was hundreds of kilometers wide in the lush and dense primordial forest!
Not even a blade of grass grew where the palm print was. Hence, it was easy to notice the unusually terrifying palm print!
Su Yu's pupils shrank!
The Twilight Mountains of Shenyue Island, the forbidden grounds of Fenghuang Valley, and the Divine Ice Ancient Kingdom in the ocean all had terrifying palm prints that could destroy them!
But the palm print in front of him was even more terrifying!
In terms of size, it was more than ten times the size of the palm print he had seen before!
Bolts of nameless energy had passed through the ages, remaining until now.
The eagles trembled and let out mournful cries. They hovered high up in the sky, not daring to land.
In the center of the palm print, there was a crack that was a hundred miles long.
It was a ghastly sight. It was as if the terrifying palm print had split the earth apart!
This crack was an abyss — the Abyss of Wutong!
At the bottom of the abyss was a remnant of civilization.
Perhaps the owner of the civilization had sensed the changes in the world and hid underground in advance.
But unfortunately, they still could not escape the fate of extinction.
"We have arrived at the Abyss of Wutong. Fly and land!" The Fourth Elder let out a low grunt and took the lead to land.
A group of people followed closely behind. They pierced through the sky and landed in front of the crack.
Looking from the sky, the abyss was only a crack the size of a hair.
But standing in front of the crack, they realized that they could not see the other side of the abyss!
It was at least ten miles wide!
Below the abyss, it was as dark as death.
Some of the ferocious creatures in the darkness let out strange cries that made people panic.
A strange aura of death assaulted them from below the abyss!
"Rest here for the night. Tomorrow morning, I will assign you to groups." The Fourth Elder waved his hand and immediately went to check on the rest of the disciples.
Mo Wu stood with her arms crossed in front of the abyss. "Under the Abyss of Wutong, there are remnants of an ancient spell. Hence, the spiritual energy is dense. If you have the chance, you must fight to join the excavation team."
These words were naturally meant for Su Yu, who was behind her.
"Excavation team?" Su Yu was puzzled. "Could it be that the one hundred members of the Abyss of Wutong are divided into many groups?"
Mo Wu indifferently nodded her sharp, snow-white chin. "There are a total of three groups. The transportation group stealthily transports the excavated treasures back to the faction. You have already seen that the Wolong Snowfield was almost completely destroyed. The logistics group provides food, tools, and so on. In short, they are the odd jobs. Lastly, the excavation group enters the abyss and excavates the ruins.
"The excavation group not only gets close to the ancient spell to absorb spiritual energy, but also has the opportunity to excavate treasures and hand them over to the faction to receive rich rewards. If they find a remnant of a legacy level cultivation technique, they can enter the depository of scriptures once for free and receive a rare top grade marrow cleansing elixir. If they find a complete legacy level cultivation technique, they can enter the depository of scriptures three times for free and receive a divine elixir that only the elders can consume! As for an immortal level cultivation technique, it has only been found once. That was with Han Zhi. As you can see, he became the disciple of the Great Elder and became the tenth elder of the faction.
"Hence, since you have taken the risk to come here and join the transportation and logistics groups, it would be a waste of time. It is only meaningful to join the excavation group. Tomorrow, you must fight for your groups."
After her speech, Mo Wu walked to a tent. There was a large number of disciples stationed there. They were the members of the Abyss of Wutong.
Excavation team? Su Yu stared at the abyss with deep anticipation.
Wasn't his goal to enter the abyss of Wutong?
He had to join the excavation team!
Su Yu took a light breath and headed to the tent.
However, just as he arrived, he heard a fight!
To be precise, it was a one-sided beating!
