Their crimson eyes were densely packed together. They were as beautiful as the stars in the sky, so many that it was enough to give one goosebumps. It felt like one's heart was being pierced by the most greedy, hungry, and savage gazes in this world!
The abyss was extremely dark, yet Zhang Xiaohou could see countless bodies and limbs wriggling in the darkness. They were all piled up together, layer upon layer. The corpses covered the corpses, and the corpses crawled on top of one another, like a mountain …
How big was the abyss? He could not even see the slightest bit of soil as far as his eyes could see. The whole place was filled with disgusting corpses!
There were a few dozen undead on the ground before, but when they fell into the abyss, they were nowhere to be seen, like raindrops falling into the ocean, drowning in the piles of corpses …
A thousand!
Ten thousand!
So many undead were lying in a huge pit. It was like the lid of a cauldron of the eighteen layers of Hell was suddenly lifted and exposed to the mundane world. The torment and pain of Purgatory were fully displayed. The overwhelming aura of hatred had turned into a giant pillar soaring into the sky, turning into rolling black clouds!
Zhang Xiaohou was stunned by the sight. He was extremely close to the Dark Abyss. A few more steps and he would fall into it …
He would rather be smashed into pieces by the Hatchet Corpse General than fall into the pit filled with corpses. It was no different than falling straight into Hell.
…
With the Hatchet Corpse General behind him, Zhang Xiaohou had nowhere to run, and it was too late for him to escape to the side.
Jia Xi's dark face was approaching him. Her long tongue was sticking out, as if she was trying to clean the blood off his body.
Zhang Xiaohou clenched his teeth and turned his back to the pit filled with corpses. He was going to have a final battle with the Hatchet Corpse General.
However, as he was about to die in the battle, the Hatchet Corpse General suddenly turned around and chased after Shi Shaoju …
A sinister laugh echoed in Zhang Xiaohou's ears. He had never been so scared that he could not even control his legs. Not only was it because the Hatchet Corpse General had spared his life, it was also because behind him was Hell, a cauldron filled with corpses!
He knelt on the ground weakly, and it was unknown how long it took him to have the strength to get up.
Zhang Xiaohou did not want to die here because of the presence of death behind him. He did not want to die like this …
Without the Hatchet Corpse General's pursuit, Zhang Xiaohou could escape along the path back home.
No one knew where the others had fled to. Some had died, while others had fled. Their elite team of military officers could not even withstand a single blow in the land of the undead. They were like prey being chased by the undead!

Campanile Magic Association
In an old office, a young female inspector hurriedly ran to the conference room, holding an electronic device screen in her hands.
"Black! Black!! "The female inspector screamed in panic as she ran.
"Calm down and speak clearly," said Peng Yu, the Vice President of the Ancient Capital Magic Association.
"Black, there's a black dot here … it's the Dark Abyss!" blurted out the woman pointing at the screen.
The screen was displaying a map. The map seemed to show the Ancient Capital and the area around it …
It was already late at night. The area outside the safe zone of the Ancient Capital was completely blood-red. The color was eye-catching and shocking, implying that the undead nearby were a few times more restless than usual.
In the middle of the blood-red area, a black dot had appeared not long ago.
Black, it was a forbidden area for humans!
Purple was a kingdom of demon creatures. Even a Supreme Magician would have a hard time surviving there, and black was a place where no living creature had a chance of surviving.
A black dot had appeared in the middle of the blood-red area around the Ancient Capital!
It implied that the scariest thing in the Land of the Undead had appeared!
"Is there something wrong with the device? Why would there be a black dot? There must be a mountain of undead there!" The young man said with a smile. He glanced at Vice President Peng Yu, but he quickly withdrew his smile when he saw the stern look on Vice President Peng Yu's face.
"What do you know? I'm afraid the Dark Abyss has appeared!" the female inspector raised her voice.
"Dark Abyss? I've been here for so long. Why haven't I heard of it before? "said the young man.
Vice President Peng Yu let out a sigh after some time and explained, "You said it would only appear when there are a mountain of undead there, right?"
"Yeah, no matter how dense the undead are, there's no way it's that dense," said the young man.
"As a matter of fact, the Dark Abyss is exactly what you said. The Dark Abyss is also called the Ten Thousand Corpses Pit and the Abyss of Hell. There's nothing wrong with the device. There's indeed a Dark Abyss to the west of Sunny Goat Village …"
"No … no way?" The young man's face stiffened.
"Tell the other factions that the Dark Abyss has appeared! The undead are so active that even the Dark Abyss has been exposed. If we can't find the source of it, this place is going to turn into Hell! "said Vice President Peng Yu sternly.
It was common for undead to roam around the Ancient Capital. For thousands of years, the people here had learned how to 'coexist' with the undead.
However, ever since the uprising at the eastern end of the Drifting Sand River, the place had gone out of control. Hordes of undead were crawling out from the ground before the sky turned completely dark. High-level undead were roaming freely in the human's territory. Now, even the Dark Abyss, which was the closest thing to Hell, had appeared. Wasn't it enough to imply that a great calamity was about to break out?
The Ancient Capital had existed for thousands of years because the undead had been looking down on the city for thousands of years. The people here had learned how to defend themselves and how to resist the undead after thousands of years of constant war …
The boundary between day and night was unclear, the undead were extremely violent, and the Dark Abyss had suddenly appeared. There must be a reason behind it!

Sunny Goat Village was close to a mountain stream. It was said that the water of the stream was the cleanest at dawn every day, making it more fragrant and sweet when brewed with tea.
Every day, Su Xiaoluo would wake up when the sun was about to rise. She would fetch the first drop of water from the stream and carry it back to her family's water tank. It was not only because her father could have a sip of the tea, but also because the water could nourish her skin.
On this particular day, she went to fetch the water as usual. Even though she could hear the cries of undead who were 'staying up late' in the distance, she was not afraid.
She picked up a scoop and was about to pour the water into the bucket when she suddenly realized that the water was red.
The water had a fishy smell. Su Xiaoluo frowned when she smelled it. She wondered which idiotic undead had gone upstream again …
She raised her head and glanced upstream, only to discover a man covered in blood lying in the stream. Half of his body was submerged in the water.
Blood kept pouring out from his body. His body was covered in wounds. He had died a horrible death!
Su Xiaoluo boldly went up to the corpse and flipped it over …
