Shen Luo calmed himself down and scanned his surroundings. He realized that the cliff platform was not small. It was about twenty to thirty acres in size, and there were many buildings built on it.
There was no seawater here. It was as if they were on land. The rocks on the ground were also black rocks that could not be detected by Divine Sense. Below the cliff was a dark abyss. The light was very dim, and one could only see about a hundred feet away.
There was no seawater in the abyss, only a black gust of wind. The gust of wind was connected to the ground and filled the entire abyss. It formed a huge gust of wind vortex. Some were a few miles wide, while others were only a few feet wide. They collided with each other and swallowed each other. The gust of wind howled as if it could engulf everything.
Shen Luo looked at the black gust of wind raging in the abyss. He was secretly shocked.
Although he was now a True Immortal, he felt very small in front of the gust of wind in the abyss.
The black gust of wind was very strange. It only raged in the abyss, and there was no sign of it spreading outside.
With a thought, his Divine Sense spread out toward the black gust of wind in the abyss. Just as his Divine Sense spread out of the abyss, it was immediately crushed by an extremely sharp force. His head hurt a little.
"This is the Dragon Abyss? It feels like we are underground. "Shen Luo asked Ao Hong.
"That's right. We are now deep under the Ancestral Dragon Wall." Ao Hong said.
"I see. What is this black gust of wind? It is so powerful that it can even crush Divine Sense. "Shen Luo nodded and pointed at the black gust of wind in the abyss.
"The Dragon Abyss is connected to the Nine Underworlds. The black gust of wind is the Black Nightmare Whirlwind from the Underworld. It can melt bones and melt flesh. It is extremely vicious. Even if a True Immortal is sucked into it, his soul and body will be destroyed in a flash. I am afraid that even a Grand Unity Immortal may not be able to escape unscathed," Ao Hong said.
Shen Luo heard this and took a deep breath.
"It is because of this natural barrier that the Dragon Tribe of the East Sea suppressed the demons here. However, this gust of wind only rages in the abyss and will not spread outside. Brother Shen, you don't have to worry," Ao Hong continued.
"Why is it like this? Is there a restriction on the stone wall? However, there doesn't seem to be any traces of restrictions here, "Shen Luo asked curiously.
"You can say that. Brother Shen, you will know when you get down there." Ao Hong smiled mysteriously, keeping Shen Tian in suspense.
Shen Luo's expression changed slightly, but he didn't pursue the matter.
At this moment, a group of Dragon Palace soldiers flew over from a palace in the distance. The leader was a general with a carp head. He was about to question them, but when he saw Ao Hong and Ao Zhong, his attitude immediately became humble.
"Greetings, Your Highness! Ninth Highness! Why have the two of you come here? "General Carp bowed to the two of them and asked.
"We are here on Father's orders to investigate the situation of the imprisoned demons in the Dragon Abyss. Are there any unusual movements below?" Ao Zhong asked.
"Your Highnesses, we've been checking the cells on each floor every day. There's nothing out of the ordinary," General Carp hurriedly replied.
Ao Zhong nodded with satisfaction and glanced at Ao Hong with a hint of mockery.
"Nothing unusual? Have you investigated clearly? "Ao Hong's face darkened as he asked.
"Ninth Highness, we have never dared to slack off. There's nothing out of the ordinary in the cells below," General Carp said with some trepidation.
"Brother Ao, don't be anxious. If the giant deep-sea demon intends to conceal its escape, the marine soldiers stationed here may not be able to discover any clues due to their limited cultivation. We'll know when we go down," Shen Luo said with a voice transmission.
Ao Hong glanced at Shen Luo and nodded.
"It seems like Ninth Brother doesn't trust General Carp's words. Since that's the case, let's go down and take a look at the demons ourselves," Ao Zhong said with a smile and walked down a stone staircase near the platform.
Ao Hong and the others followed. General Carp had wanted to send someone to follow them, but Ao Hong refused.
The stone staircase was only four to five feet wide. Endless Black Nightmare Whirlwinds roared just inches away, as if they could pounce on them at any time and drag them away.
However, every time the Black Nightmare Whirlwinds surged toward the stone staircase, they would be repelled when they were a few feet away from the staircase. It was as if the staircase was covered by a layer of invisible restriction.
The group walked down for a while and soon reached the end of the stone staircase. A platform appeared in front of them.
This platform was much larger than the one above. There were hundreds of densely packed caves carved into the mountain wall beside it.
The entrances of the caves were all sealed with fences. The fences were carved with all kinds of runes and emitted powerful ripples of magic power. Clearly, they were extremely powerful restrictions.
However, Shen Luo didn't pay attention to those restrictions at this moment. Instead, he looked outside the platform and saw a huge golden pillar that was several feet thick. It emerged from the depths of the abyss and stood there in the abyss.
The huge golden pillar was densely covered in star-like patterns and dragon and phoenix seals. It glowed brightly and emitted an aura that was as stable as a mountain. It was as if nothing could shake it.
The Black Nightmare Whirlwinds in the abyss were all repelled by the aura emitted by the huge golden pillar. They could not approach it at all.
"This is the huge golden pillar that repelled the Black Nightmare Whirlwinds? What a powerful treasure. What kind of treasure is this? "Shen Luo looked at the huge golden pillar and said.
"This item is called the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff. It is a treasure refined from the Nine Turns Wrought Iron, Spirit Sun Divine Iron, and Nine Heaven Gold. It has the supreme divine power to control wind and fire and suppress all evils. It is the number one treasure of the Dragon Palace," Ao Hong said proudly.
"Humph! What number one treasure? It is just an imitation. "Ao Zhong's face was a little gloomy as he snorted coldly.
"An imitation?" Shen Luo was stunned.
"Legend has it that thousands of years ago, my East Sea Dragon Palace had a treasure called the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff. It was a treasure passed down by the ancient King of Great Yu. It was originally stored near the Dragon Abyss. Not only did it completely suppress all the Black Nightmare Whirlwinds, but its power also radiated to the entire East Sea. Unfortunately, thousands of years ago, a Great Sage of the Demon Clan came to the Dragon Palace and took away the Divine Iron Staff. My father had no choice but to imitate the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff and place it here. "Ao Hong continued.
"Great Sage of the Demon Clan? Are you referring to the legendary Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong? " Shen Luo was curious, but looking at Ao Zhong's expression, this was obviously a disgraceful past of the East Sea, so he didn't ask.
"Let's talk about this later. Let's investigate the demons first." Ao Zhong seemed to be unwilling to listen to the two talk about the Sea Suppressing Wrought Iron Staff and interrupted.
"Then let's go directly to the eighth floor?" Ao Hong said.
"Since we are here, let's check all the demons imprisoned in the Dragon Abyss, so that no one will find more excuses." Ao Zhong sneered, turned and walked toward the cave cells.
Ao Hong looked at the back of his second brother and sighed in his heart.
According to his original plan, they should go directly to the cell where the Giant Deep-Sea Monster was imprisoned. They should try to figure out the whole story as soon as possible so that they wouldn't waste too much time.
But since Ao Zhong said so, as the younger brother, he naturally couldn't refute his elder brother.
