In the sky above a desolate mountain range that was over 100,000 miles away from the Gloomy Flame City, the void distorted and blurred as though there was an invisible force pulling at it.
There was a 'chi la' sound, and a pitch-black crack suddenly appeared. Subsequently, a greyish-white figure flew out from the spatial crack.
The greyish-white figure staggered before stabilizing himself in mid-air.
The spatial crack quickly closed up, and the greyish-white radiance on the figure dissipated, revealing Liu Ming's figure.
His face was abnormally pale, and he was holding a black and white stone tablet in his hand while panting heavily.
Liu Ming took a glance at the surroundings and saw that he was no longer in the Gloomy Flame City. His expression relaxed as he landed on a mountain peak below. He quickly took out a few elixirs to recover his magic power and consumed them.
After a moment, his complexion looked better.
Mo Tian might have made a move to break open the void, but he had also used a portion of his magic power. It might not be a lot, but it had nearly squeezed out all the magic power in his body.
"My magic power is still insufficient. The distance to escape after breaking open the void should only be over 100,000 miles. However, I should be safe now." The black aura rolled, and the black-scaled devil hand that Mo Tian was attached to appeared beside Liu Ming.
"It's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to escape." Liu Ming took a glance at the black-scaled devil hand and spoke.
The devil hand let out a few indifferent laughter. Subsequently, it flipped its palm, and a black key appeared. It was the one that Huangfu Liushui had thrown over previously.
"Senior Mo Tian, what exactly is this key?" Liu Ming stood up and asked curiously.
"This is called the Devil Abyss Key. It is a secret treasure of the Ten Thousand Devil Continent. I didn't expect you to be so lucky and actually obtained one without any effort." The devil hand played with the black key and shook its palm before tossing it to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming reached out to catch it. Once the key touched his body, he felt his body tremble. The black key suddenly emitted a strange qi flow that fused into his body.
In an instant, he felt that he seemed to have formed some kind of indescribable connection with this black key.
"This …" His face revealed a look of surprise.
"There is no need to worry. The Devil Abyss Key is considered a spiritual artifact. You are able to sense the communication with it. It means that Huangfu Liushui is truly sincere in handing this item over to you." Mo Tian spoke indifferently.
"Senior Mo Tian, you have been mentioning the term Demon Abyss since the beginning. What exactly is it referring to?" Liu Ming's eyes flickered as he asked.
"The Demonic Abyss is actually a secret place in the Myriad Demon Continent. It can also be considered a secret realm. Of course, it's completely different from the Heavenly Fantasy Secret Land that I've constructed. The origins of the Demonic Abyss can no longer be verified. Rumor has it that it has existed since ancient times. The Demonic Abyss Key in your hand is the key that can open the door to the Demonic Abyss and allow you to enter. " A black aura flew out from Hei Lin's palm and turned into Mo Tian's figure. Mo Tian's eyes were surfacing with faint blazing light as he spoke.
When Liu Ming heard this, his body couldn't help but shake.
Ever since he started cultivating, he had experienced such secret realms multiple times. There was no need for Mo Tian to explain and he could already make a rough guess.
To cultivators, such a secret realm's value was immeasurable. Moreover, it was a secret realm that had existed since ancient times.
"From Senior's words, this Demonic Abyss should be very famous. Why have I never seen its introduction in the ancient records?" Liu Ming's eyes flickered as he asked.
During these years of cultivation, what he did the most was to look up all sorts of ancient records regarding the Myriad Demon Continent. On one hand, it was to expand his knowledge. On the other hand, it was to avoid being schemed against by Mo Tian.
"Haha, how many books have you read? Don't display your slight skill in front of an expert. Furthermore, the information regarding the Demonic Abyss is in the hands of the Central Imperial Dynasty, the four prestigious clans, and other major factions. It is rare for outsiders to know about it. "Mo Tian looked at Liu Ming with ridicule and spoke.
"Senior, please give me some pointers." Liu Ming muttered and spoke with cupped fists.
Mo Tian looked at Liu Ming's expressionless face and frowned slightly.
This kid in front of him was only a few hundred years old, but in terms of temperament and shrewdness, he wasn't inferior to those Profound Opening Old Demons who had lived for tens of thousands of years.
"If I didn't remember wrongly, the Demonic Abyss is an ancient secret realm that would only open once every 30,000 years or so. The Demonic Abyss is rich in demonic aura, and there is no lack of true demonic aura. It is a treasured land for cultivation, and after countless years of nurturing, it has produced all sorts of extremely precious spiritual materials for the demons. However, all these aren't important. The most important thing is that the Demonic Abyss still has plenty of cave dwellings of the ancient demon race. There are countless treasures inside, and there are even corpses of the ancient Profound Opening Devil. "When Mo Tian spoke until here, his eyes flashed with a trace of fanaticism.
When Liu Ming heard this, he revealed a surprised expression.
The cave dwellings of the ancient demon, the corpses of the Profound Opening Devil. All of these were extremely precious items, and even for Profound Opening Existences, they were extremely precious.
"There are actually so many treasures in the Demonic Abyss. But correspondingly, the dangers aren't small, right?" The shock on Liu Ming's face quickly subsided as he asked calmly.
"Of course. Some of the demonic beasts in the Demonic Abyss are all demonic creatures from ancient times. They are incomparably powerful, and some are even comparable to Profound Opening Existences. There are also some natural danger zones, spatial storms, etc. Every time the Demonic Abyss Mystic Realm opens, there would be plenty of powerful demons that would perish inside. However, for the treasures inside, it is natural to take some risks. All the major factions on the continent would still send people in wave after wave. "Mo Tian spoke indifferently.
When Liu Ming heard this, he didn't reveal much surprise on his face.
"From what Senior means, it seems like you want me to make a trip to the Demonic Abyss?" Liu Ming turned to look at Mo Tian and asked with flickering eyes.
"That's right. That is what I mean. Are you not interested in the treasures in the Demonic Abyss?" Mo Tian pondered for a moment before replying.
"I am naturally interested, but my current situation isn't difficult. There doesn't seem to be a need to take such a risk. The Demonic Abyss is extremely dangerous, and if I am to lose my life for some treasures, I will not do such a foolish thing. "Liu Ming's tone was indifferent.
Mo Tian frowned slightly and sneered. "Haha, do you think that you can sit back and relax after severing the connection with the cage? Don't forget that the cage is still in your Spirit Sea. No one can guarantee that the artifact spirit inside won't take any other actions."
"What do you mean by that?" Liu Ming's expression changed as he suddenly stood up.
"I am just reminding you. The cage artifact spirit might have severed the connection between you and the cage, but it doesn't mean that it will let you off." Mo Tian spoke indifferently.
"Do you know something?" Liu Ming's eyes were like blades as he stared at Mo Tian and asked word by word.
"I do know something, but I can't tell you now. However, I will give you a piece of advice. If you don't want to regret it in the future, you better use all means to increase your cultivation. You must at least cultivate to the Mystic Opening Realm before you can deal with the future matters." Mo Tian let out a light laugh and shut his mouth after speaking.
Liu Ming furrowed his brows.
He had some suspicions previously, and after probing, he realized that Mo Tian obviously knew something.
However, he didn't ask anything else. He knew that since Mo Tian said it like this, Mo Tian wouldn't tell him anything else. However, his heart was still tumbling with thoughts.
Indeed, ever since he eliminated the threat of the cage absorbing magic power, he had been more lazy than before. He might be diligently cultivating, but he was more relaxed than before.
"It isn't impossible for me to venture into the Devil Abyss, but you have to tell me your objective first. There should be a special reason why you are so persistent in the Devil Abyss, right?" After a long time, Liu Ming suddenly spoke.
"My objective is naturally to condense my own body. Didn't I tell you before that there is a place that has the materials to condense my demon body? I was referring to the Devil Abyss. The Mystic Opening Demon's corpse there is the best material for me to condense my demon body. "Mo Tian snorted and spoke.
"According to what you said, could it be that you already knew that I would obtain the Devil Abyss Key from Huangfu Liushui?" When Liu Ming heard this, he frowned slightly as though he didn't believe Mo Tian's words.
"Of course not. I originally had another method to help you obtain the Devil Abyss Key, but it would take quite a bit of effort. I didn't expect your luck to be so good and actually obtained one without much effort. It saved me quite a bit of effort. "Mo Tian chuckled.
Hearing this, Liu Ming nodded and the expression on his face slowly relaxed.
"You don't have to be so unwilling. There are many precious materials in the Devil Abyss that are extremely beneficial to your cultivation. Furthermore, the Mystic Opening Demon's corpse is also very useful to you. If there are enough Mystic Opening Demon's corpse, I can refine an elixir called Devil Essence Relic for you. This elixir can increase your chances of advancing to the late-stage of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. It might even be of great help to you when you advance to the Mystic Opening Demon in the future. "Mo Tian took a glance at Liu Ming and spoke with a smile.
"What? The Devil Essence Relic is refined using the Mystic Opening Demon's corpse?" Liu Ming was shocked.
With regards to the Devil Essence Relic, he had read about it in the Qing Clan's ancient records. It was a legendary elixir that the Celestial Phenomenon Devil Race dreamt of. He didn't expect it to be refined using the corpse of a Mystic Opening Demon.
From Mo Tian's tone, it seemed like he needed a lot of Mystic Opening Demon's corpse. To an ordinary person, this was simply a pipe dream.
However, if what Mo Tian said was true, there was a high possibility that it could be realized in the Devil Abyss.
"It isn't just the Mystic Opening Demon's corpse. In the Devil Abyss, there are fragments of the ancient devil's cave treasure. If you can collect some of them, your 12 Mountain River Pearls might be able to be refined into a cave treasure. When the 12 Mountain River Pearls are taken out at the same time, it wouldn't be impossible for you to fight against a Mystic Opening Demon." Mo Tian continued.
