After looting the four dead bodies, Lin Huang stood up and looked behind him. He seemed to have heard someone screaming behind him.
When he turned around, he only saw the three dead bodies. He did not see the person who had attacked them.
He noticed that the Emperor's Heart Rings on the three dead bodies were still there. He looked around and realized that there was no one else around. He then walked towards the three dead bodies.
When he was about ten meters away from the dead bodies, Lin Huang stopped. The way the three dead bodies died was the same. The temples of their heads were pierced through, leaving a hole that was as thick as a thumb. It seemed like they had been killed by finger energy. However, what made Lin Huang feel strange was that there were no traces of blood or brain matter splattering around.
Lin Huang did not investigate further. To prevent any problems with the dead bodies, he used his telekinesis to remove the rings on the three dead bodies.
After throwing the three Emperor's Heart Rings into his storage space, Lin Huang opened the detailed map provided by the black market. After confirming his location and the entrance to the second layer, he set the coordinates using the Dimensional Portal. He then summoned Thunder and rode on Thunder's back.
"Let's go!" Lin Huang pointed in the direction of the entrance to the second layer.
Thunder flapped its wings and flew into the sky. Soon, it disappeared into the sky …
After Lin Huang left, a lady slowly appeared from the stone wall not far away. It was Yao Lan who had just killed the three teasers.
"This guy is an Imperial Censor?!" Yao Lan was shocked as Yao Huanhuan did not reveal this to her. She lifted her head and looked in the direction where Lin Huang disappeared. She frowned. "That direction … It seems like he's really going to the second layer …"
Sitting on Thunder's back, Lin Huang looked down at the land.
The land was barren, but it was not completely lifeless. Occasionally, one or two malnourished trees with only a few leaves could be seen. They looked like they were half-dead.
Not long after, Lin Huang saw the people who had just left the entrance not long ago. They were all flying at a low altitude.
When they saw the Viridescent Thunderhawk flying towards them, some of the people who were heading in the same direction as Lin Huang immediately fled in other directions.
Lin Huang also saw two traveling teams. After the two teams discovered the Thunder, they did not flee. Instead, they landed on the ground with the tourists and put on a defensive stance.
"It's an immortal-level rank-1 Viridescent Thunderhawk. Everyone, hide behind us!" The four leaders told them through voice transmission.
"An immortal-level rank-1. The leader should be easy to deal with, right?" Someone asked.
"Although the Viridescent Thunderhawk is only a double mutated monster, it's still a top-notch predator. Moreover, the sky is its territory. An immortal-level rank-2 might not be able to defeat it. Even for immortal-levels rank-3 and rank-4 like us, as long as we can't kill it in one hit, we won't be able to catch up with it if it wants to escape. If they provoked it, it would be troublesome if they attracted a flock of birds and beasts. Most of the ferocious birds are very vengeful, "one of the leaders explained. "However, it seems like it's just passing by. As long as we don't stand in front of it, we won't be its prey."
"It seems like there's someone sitting on its back!" A young man with powerful ocular abilities shouted.
"Yes, there's someone sitting on its back. I just saw it." One of the leaders smiled and nodded. He saw the person sitting on the Viridescent Thunderhawk's back, but he could not see who it was and could not sense the person's combat strength. "In fact, it's not rare for an immortal-level to own an immortal-level monster as a mount. Even if you're not an Imperial Censor, you can buy a pet monster that's already been tamed at many of the big auctions. The only thing is that the price is a little high."
The tourists were envious. They wished they could level up to immortal-level immediately so that they could buy an immortal-level pet monster as a mount.
Of course, Lin Huang had no idea that he had caused so many people to daydream as he passed by on Thunder.
After riding on Thunder's back for more than seven hours, Lin Huang finally arrived at the entrance of the second layer.
Along the way, most of the monsters avoided Thunder as they were afraid that they would become its prey.
Aside from being attacked by the immortal-level monsters three times, Lin Huang's journey was smooth sailing. Meanwhile, the three immortal-level monsters were killed by Lin Huang with a single slash. The monster carcasses were lying in Lin Huang's storage space and became his trophies.
Looking at the crack on the ground that looked like a big mouth, Lin Huang knew that he had arrived at the entrance of the second layer. He patted Thunder's back and said, "Let's land next to the crack."
Hearing this, Thunder immediately retracted its wings slightly and glided toward the crack.
A moment later, Thunder flapped its wings and landed next to the crack.
Lin Huang leaped from Thunder's back, patted its wings and recalled it into its card form.
A double mutated Thunder could no longer be summoned on the second layer of the Abyss Brink. Its ability would instantly be at the bottom of the food chain and it would become food for the other monsters.
The entrance to the second layer of the Abyss Brink looked like a big mouth from the sky. However, it was actually a huge crack that led underground. It was a few kilometers long and more than 500 meters wide.
Not far away from the crack, there was a gigantic stone tablet that was about ten meters tall.
There was a line of words carved on the stone tablet. "This crack is the entrance to the second layer of the Abyss Brink. Those who are below immortal-level rank-3 should not enter by mistake. Otherwise, you'll definitely die!"
Looking at the words on the stone tablet, the first thought that came to Lin Huang's mind was, "Nobody left a message on it?"
He walked over and extended his hand towards the stone tablet. He then realized that there was a faint white glow that blocked his contact with the stone tablet. Obviously, it was a protective measure that was left behind by the predecessors to prevent the stone tablet from being destroyed by humans or monsters in any way. The stone tablet must have existed for a long time. Even after so many years, the layer of isolation energy still existed. It might be a technique that surpassed demigods.
"So, it's not that nobody left a message on it. It's because of the protective measure." Lin Huang could not help but laugh.
Retracting his hand from the stone tablet, Lin Huang stood at the edge of the crack and looked down into the abyss. He could not see the bottom at all. Without hesitation, he took a deep breath and leaped down.
As he headed downwards, Lin Huang realized that the underground world under the crack was like a narrow bottle. The deeper he went, the wider it became.
More than a minute later, Lin Huang finally arrived at the bottom after passing through the clouds.
What surprised Lin Huang was that the ground under his feet was a lush grassland.
The second layer of the Abyss Brink had an environment that was completely different from the first layer of the Abyss Brink. Instead, it was the same as the outside world. It was full of spring, giving Lin Huang an illusion that he had returned to the grassland in Division7.
