"It's my fault for not explaining it to Shen Daoyou in time. Although this Black Abyss Mystery Cave is dangerous, it also has great opportunities. The Yin Qi in this place is very dense. Other than the Yin Beasts, there are also all kinds of Yin Attribute spiritual materials in the depths of the cave. Many of them are unheard of in the outside world. Every time the Nine Nether Yin Wind weakens, cultivators from all the sects in the Boundless Desert Sea will come here to search for treasures. As long as they don't die here, basically everyone who comes in will have a great harvest, "Yan Wushi explained.
"So that's the case," Shen Luo nodded in understanding.
"Other than those Yin attribute spiritual materials, legends say that there's a huge treasure trove hidden in the depths of the Black Abyss Mystery Cave. It contains all sorts of rare and precious spiritual materials. There are even immortal treasures of the Nine Heavens. There's even a mountain of them. It's just that no one has ever reached there. However, every time the Nine Nether Draught weakens, cultivators who enter will try to find that treasure trove, "Yan Wushi continued.
"There's such a treasure trove of spiritual materials!" Shen Luo's eyes widened when he heard this, his heart palpitating with excitement.
"These are all legends. No one knows if they're true or false," Yan Wushi shrugged and said.
Shen Luo responded with an 'oh' and fell silent.
At this moment, the advancing group suddenly stopped.
Shen Luo raised his head and looked forward. His eyes moved and he saw that the tunnel ahead had forked. It extended to the left and right. The two tunnels were equally bottomless.
However, Elder Mei and Mo Wang weren't surprised by the forked tunnel. It was unknown if they sensed this situation with their spiritual sense or if they had been here before and already knew the terrain.
Elder Mei waved her hand and a silvery-white powder shot out. It split into two and landed on the two sides of the passageway. When it landed on the ground and stone walls, it glowed and illuminated the area.
Within the light, there were many colorful blurry figures. They were constantly flashing and couldn't be seen clearly.
"Mo Xin and the others have split up. On the left is the Deep Earth Sect and the Divine Turtle Sect. On the right is the Yellow Sand Sect and the Beast Control Sect. Mo Xin and the Yellow Sand Sect are together," Elder Mei said with certainty.
Shen Luo's eyes flashed with a strange look. He had secretly used his Netherworld Ghost Eyes, but he still couldn't understand the meaning of those fluorescent shadows. It seemed like this was Elder Mei's unique tracking ability.
This person had previously researched the Scent of Concealment, and now he was using this silver powder to trace. It seemed like he was proficient in using all kinds of spices.
Shen Luo had been very unfriendly to Elder Mei and had secretly tampered with the Young Headmaster's orders. Shen Luo had always been very wary of her. Subconsciously, he began to consider how to deal with her various magical spices if they were to become enemies.
Shen Luo was lost in his thoughts when Elder Mei suddenly turned around and looked at him. His heart skipped a beat.
"Shen Daoyou, where is that mark? Are you able to roughly determine which passage to take through that mark? "Elder Mei asked, ignoring Shen Luo's somewhat abnormal emotions.
When Shen Luo heard this, he let out a sigh of relief. He closed his eyes and tried to sense the position of the mark. After a while, he shook his head and said, "No, this place is full of Yin Qi. It has greatly affected the perception of the mark. I can only roughly determine its location. I can't determine where to go next."
"Is that so? When Shen Daoyou was on the surface, he didn't say that his perception was blurry. "Elder Mei frowned and her tone became unfriendly.
"The perception of the mark is related to the range of the consciousness. The wider the consciousness, the clearer the perception. The Yin Qi here is so dense that my consciousness can only spread out less than half of it. Naturally, the detection of the mark is blurry." Shen Luo explained without changing his expression.
"Is that so …" Elder Mei's frown didn't relax. She didn't seem to believe Shen Luo's explanation.
But the Yin Qi in the Black Abyss Maze was so dense that it greatly affected the perception of the consciousness. Everyone present had personally experienced it. He couldn't find any reason to refute.
"Since we can't figure out Gui Yan's location, what should we do next?" Yan Wushi coughed lightly and said to ease the atmosphere.
Shen Luo naturally wouldn't say anything about such matters. He retreated to the side and stood still.
"Since we can't sense the mark, the city lord wants us to keep an eye on Mo Xin. Yellow Sand Sect Leader and the rest have split up. We should also split into two and watch both sides." Elder Mei said after pondering for a while.
"We don't have enough people. Wouldn't it be more dangerous if we split up?" Elder Mo Wang frowned and said.
"Entering the Black Abyss Maze is an extremely dangerous matter. Since the city lord wants us to enter, he must have thought of all this. Furthermore, we don't know what Mo Xin and the rest are planning in the Black Abyss Maze. To prevent them from harming Tianji City in the future, it's worth it for us to take some risks now. Moreover, even if we really meet with an irresistible danger, we can just go back the way we came. Although Mo Xin is powerful, our abhijna isn't weak either. Even if we can't beat him, we can still protect ourselves. "Elder Mei said.
"Alright." Elder Mo Wang wasn't good with words. After hearing Elder Mei's words, he hesitated for a long time before finally nodding in agreement.
Elder Mei's face revealed a trace of joy. She immediately began to assign people. Shen Luo and Yan Wushi were assigned to her group.
"Elder Mo Wang, I wonder if you have a communication immortal treasure on you? The black jade disk that the city lord gave me has the ability to mark locations. Furthermore, it's much more exquisite than my mana imprint. It won't be affected by the Yin energy here. If you have a communication immortal treasure, I can tell you the location of the mana imprint anytime after we split up. "Shen Luo said to Elder Mo Wang.
Elder Mo Wang took out a black jade token and passed it to Shen Luo. It was exactly the same as the one she used to contact Elder Wu Ming. It looked like a communication immortal treasure that was commonly used by the elders.
Shen Luo took the jade token and activated the Black Jade Plate. A white light shot out from it and entered Mo Wang's palm in a flash, stopping there.
Another white light spot appeared on the black jade disk. It was the location of the white light imprint in Elder Mo Wang's palm.
After doing all this, the two groups split up and each walked into a tunnel. Shen Luo and co. walked into the tunnel that Mo Xin and Yellow Sand Gate chose.
"Hurry up. Otherwise, we'll never catch up to Mo Xin and co.." Elder Mei said immediately after they left Elder Mo Wang's line of sight.
"Many disciples are stained with the grey liquid. Wouldn't it be dangerous if we move too quickly?" Yan Wushi said hesitantly.
"No worries. This is still the periphery of the Black Abyss Maze. The Yin beasts won't be too strong. The most important thing now is to catch up to Mo Xin and co.." Elder Mei waved her hand and turned into a purple light that shot forward.
Yan Wushi and co. didn't expect Elder Mei to be so decisive. They were all shocked. However, she had already flown away. The rest had no choice but to follow.
Shen Luo also flew up. Looking at the tail light of Elder Mei's escape light, his eyes flickered continuously.
This Elder Mei seemed to be in a hurry to find Mo Xin and co.. Why? However, as long as she didn't find trouble with him, Shen Luo couldn't be bothered to find out what she was planning.
Flying like this was many times faster than walking on foot. The group soon arrived at the end of the passage.
Even though they were attacked by several waves of Yin beasts, Elder Mei didn't bother with them. She directly killed her way through the group of Yin beasts.
The group landed on the ground. There was another fork in the tunnel. This time, there were seven to eight forks. Each one was pitch black and bottomless.
