"Luoyue, why are you here?" Yi Yun asked curiously after Nanxuan Luoyue recovered a little.
With Nanxuan Luoyue's strength, it was unlikely that she would come so deep into the tomb. It was equivalent to sending herself to her death.
"Brother Yi Yun, what is this place?" Nanxuan Luoyue had unknowingly changed the way she addressed Yi Yun.
"This is the core region of the Fey God Tomb. The abyss isn't far from here," said Yi Yun.
"Ah?"
The man and woman immediately revealed a horrified expression, and their already pale faces became even paler.
They had actually arrived in the Fey God Tomb and were so close to the abyss.
Nanxuan Luoyue carefully recalled but the moment she did so, she felt a splitting headache. Finally, she shook her head and said, "I have no idea how I got here either. I don't seem to recall it."
"What about the both of you?" Yi Yun looked at the man and woman.
The two were lost for a moment before they finally shook their heads.
"You don't remember?" Yi Yun was taken aback. He found the situation odd.
"Alright, since your friend is fine, let's continue setting off. Although I wish to let them rest a little more, but …" Nameless Sword frowned as he looked at his surroundings. He added, "I have no idea if the Fey plant or the unknown creature from before will appear again. It's best we don't stay here any longer."
"Alright," said Yi Yun with a nod.
Nanxuan Luoyue walked beside Yi Yun while the man and woman followed closely behind.
As for the other warriors, other than those who walked closer to Nameless Sword, they silently approached Yi Yun.
The place was fraught with danger. Only by staying close to the duo would they feel slightly safer.
Upon seeing Yi Yun become a hot commodity in a blink of an eye, Lie Jiaojiao wore a depressed look. She naturally did not approach Yi Yun. Instead, she stayed close to Nameless Sword's side.
The group continued proceeding forward as Yi Yun constantly observed his surroundings.
Along the way, he discovered quite a number of corpses that were all skin and bones. They were probably the 'residue' that had been sucked dry by the Fey plant.
These corpses lay quietly on the sand, and in this quiet place, it gave people a sense of eeriness.
"Indeed, other than Nanxuan Luoyue and the two warriors, there are others here. As for those who go missing in the Fey God Tomb, no one would notice them. Even if they knew that someone had gone missing, they would never imagine that the missing person would eventually die in this place, "thought Yi Yun.
At that moment, a towering blood energy surged over, causing one's blood energy to churn. Even their skin was throbbing in pain.
"That's … the abyss." Yue Wangjian looked ahead as a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Everyone looked up and saw that the blood energy was rising from a huge ravine, and they were standing at the entrance of the ravine.
This ravine was filled with a layer of blood-colored mist, and there were grey shadows leaping about within it. That was the Slaughter Qi. If one were to accidentally touch it, they might lose their lives.
No one knew how many years it had been since anyone set foot in the Abyss. They might even be the first group of people to enter the Abyss in ten thousand years. No one knew what was inside the Abyss.
But after experiencing the previous two dangers, everyone was afraid of alarming something and didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.
A warrior turned his head and saw that the path they had taken had been enveloped by a thick black mist. Even the direction they had taken seemed to have changed.
And in the black mist, a pair of purple eyes suddenly flashed.
The warrior felt a chill run down his back. He knew that it was impossible for them to turn back now.
They carefully stepped into the Abyss. The moment they entered, it was as though they had entered a sealed world. When they looked up, they could not even see the sky. All they could see was a thick sanguine aura that pressed down like clouds.
"Look, that's a Devil Hand Vine!" exclaimed a Supremacy suddenly.
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed and indeed, they saw a vine that seemed to have grown a hand. It was climbing up the walls of the Abyss. It was indeed a Devil Hand Vine, something rarely seen in the outside world.
"Am I seeing things? That looks like the Azure Bird Fey Pistil?" Another warrior let out an incredulous voice.
Even Yi Yun was immediately moved. The Azure Bird Fey Pistil was a supreme-grade herb that could heal the soul. The refined Azure Bird Fey Pistil Pill could even repair a shattered soul sea. It was a supreme divine pill with immeasurable value.
The warrior was rather knowledgeable. He even recognized the Azure Bird Fey Pistil.
And when the others heard that the two warriors had discovered the divine herb one after another, they immediately began searching.
"There's also the immortal skin egg, the Heaven Silk Jade …"
"I found it too. It's a ten-thousand-year-old Blood Lingzhi! Furthermore, there's an entire clump of it. There are quite a few of them! "
"This place is like a divine land!"
In the Fey God Tomb's periphery, a four-thousand-year-old Blood Lingzhi was enough for an entire team of warriors to risk their lives. But here, there were several ten-thousand-year-old Blood Lingzhi.
These warriors had come to the Abyss in search of opportunities, but they never expected to encounter so much danger before they found any. Now that the opportunity had finally appeared in front of them, these warriors immediately turned excited.
"Be careful. There might be some demonic beast guarding the treasure here," said Nameless Sword.
Thankfully, these warriors remained rather calm. Although they looked excited, no one rashly approached.
At that moment, the warrior who first discovered the herb suddenly flashed. Immediately, a puppet appeared in his spot. The puppet looked very simple and did not even have an aura.
"Let me give it a try first."
As the warrior spoke, the puppet in front of him suddenly charged forward like a bolt of lightning, heading straight for the Devil Hand Vine he had his eye on.
He had already made preparations. If there was any danger, he would immediately detonate his puppet.
However, nothing unexpected happened even after the puppet plucked the Devil Hand Vine.
Upon seeing the puppet bring the Devil Hand Vine in front of him, the warrior wore a look of pleasant surprise. He hurriedly took out a box and placed the Devil Hand Vine inside.
Upon seeing the warrior retrieve the herb without any problems, the other warriors were tempted as well.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
As the warriors carefully walked towards the herb they had their eye on, another warrior quickly plucked the herb. Upon seeing this, the man and woman from before walked over. Nanxuan Luoyue hesitated for a moment before feeling tempted as well. No matter how valuable the herbs her family had gathered were, they were not even a hundredth of the herbs here. If she did not pick them, it would be equivalent to not entering a treasure trove.
"Brother Yi Yun, should we pick them as well?" Nanxuan Luoyue looked at Yi Yun. Although there did not appear to be any danger, she still listened to Yi Yun.
And at that moment, Yi Yun was looking thoughtfully at the warrior who had plucked the herb first, as well as the spot where he had plucked the Devil Hand Vine.
Everything appeared to be going smoothly but Yi Yun had a nagging feeling that things were not that simple. He felt an indescribable sense of danger from the area. As he looked at the area, he carefully observed it with his perception.
Everyone began taking action. Even Fairy Yourou plucked a few red lotuses. The lotus seeds in the red lotuses were each the size of a pigeon's egg. They were supreme treasures that could only be chanced upon in the outside world. Even Fairy Yourou was tempted by them.
"Oh? Planet Destruction Grass? " Fairy Yourou was taken aback. She saw an inconspicuous mound. On it grew a flower the size of a palm. It had a few leaves and it looked listless.
Upon seeing the grass, Fairy Yourou was alarmed. Could this be the legendary Planet Destruction Grass? According to ancient records, this was a terrifying demonic herb that was already extinct. If such a grass matured, it would produce flowers that resembled dandelions. When the wind blew, the seeds would scatter and tear through the void, boring into the spatial turbulence. Then, the seeds would drift through the spatial turbulence and once they landed in a world, they would sprout. However, they could suck the world dry of its vitality, turning it into a land of death. That was how the Planet Destruction Grass got its name.
The mound in front of her was clearly a Planet Destruction Grass sapling. It was practically a legendary divine herb.
Yes, if there was a place in this world that had the ability to breed Planet Destruction Grass, it was probably the ancient battlefield. Only this land could sustain its growth!
Apart from Fairy Yourou, there were a few others who saw the Planet Destruction Grass sapling. All of them wished to pluck the divine herb.
But at that moment, Yi Yun suddenly said, "Don't approach it!"
Fairy Yourou's heart skipped a beat as she immediately came to a halt.
The others also heard Yi Yun's warning. Some of them revealed looks of hesitation. Yi Yun had mentioned that he had sharp senses. Could it be that he had sensed danger?
"Ah!"
At that moment, the warrior closest to the mound suddenly let out a tragic cry. He began convulsing violently, and at that moment, an extremely horrifying scene happened.
His body began to dissolve from his feet, followed by his thighs and waist. He struggled frantically, but his body became shorter and shorter as it dissolved from bottom to top. Finally, only half of his body remained on the ground. His arms flailed wildly as he struggled. His eyes protruded as though they were about to explode.
Finally, all that was left of him was his head. It slowly dissolved as though a sugar figurine was placed on a hot pan. It was slowly melting.
Upon seeing this scene, everyone drew a cold gasp.
"The land! He was devoured by the land beneath his feet? "Fairy Yourou said in astonishment.
"He must have been turned into fertilizer."
Yi Yun frowned. He had read about the Planet Destruction Grass in the divine alchemist's notes. He had a nagging feeling that something was amiss. Was that really a Planet Destruction Grass?
Just as Yi Yun was pondering over the matter, he suddenly realized that the scene in front of him seemed to distort. All the herbs on the ground seemed to come alive. They swayed gently but there was no wind. It was an extremely strange scene.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, someone let out a tragic cry. It was none other than the woman Yi Yun had previously saved. An extremely sacred herb flower in front of her suddenly transformed into a blob of sticky red blood. Then, it wrapped around the woman's hand.
