The entrance to the Holy Fire Abyss is located in a natural pit at the deepest part of Wuming Mountain.
The legend about the Holy Fire Abyss has been widely circulated in the cultivation world since the Four Tribulations period.
Among them, the following two statements are most popular:
First, it is rumored that the Holy Fire Abyss is a battlefield relic between the Holy Spirit Tribe and the Ancient Underworld Tribe in the Four Tribulations Era. It involves the dispute between the two strongest saints of that era. It was due to the fight for a powerful treasure that both fell and became
A holy land.
Secondly, there are also rumors that the Holy Spirit Clan of that era, in order to destroy the ancient Ming Clan, a murderous and cruel evil race, used the power of the entire clan to seal off an area, and together with the Ancient Ming Clan, they were permanently sealed together.
Later, due to the changes of the times, the wear and tear of time, and the power of the ban became weaker and weaker, it was able to see the light of day again.
And some of the remaining descendants of the Holy Spirit Clan developed into the current Holy Sect.
It's a pity that there has been a gap in inheritance regarding that secret realm.
Even though he is the Holy Sect, it was only nearly a hundred years ago that he discovered that the Holy Land, which was only recorded in a few ancient books, actually existed.
Speaking of the scene when I discovered it, I was quite sad.
It was not a deliberate search, but an accident.
It was a training team from the soul master world a hundred years ago. It was composed of many casual cultivators, disciples of the Holy Sect and other forces. They originally went to the depths of Wuming Mountain to hunt a ferocious beast, but they accidentally discovered the natural depths of the mountain.
pit.
One of the members of the team accidentally fell into a deep pit while avoiding the attack of a vicious beast.
To be precise, it was because I stepped into a deep pit that had grown over time and was covered with vines and green plants.
The other members of the team didn't take it seriously when they first saw the fallen person. They thought that the latter had the strength of half a step to the Heavenly Soul Realm. Even if he accidentally fell in, he could easily jump up and return after calming down.
to the ground.
However, they never waited for that member again.
Afterwards, they finally realized the seriousness of the problem;
He casually threw the tree trunk next to him towards the deep pit. After careful testing, he discovered that he could still hear the tree trunk falling at first, but after a few breaths, he could not hear any sound at all, and could not detect the specific location of the pit at all.
depth.
A few people were unwilling to give in, and used their spiritual energy and soul consciousness to test the depths. They found that the deep pit was actually filled with an extremely turbid atmosphere like miasma;
Once this kind of strange breath touches their spiritual energy or soul consciousness, it will make both of them become turbid;
The temptation of several people was backfired, and they felt as if they were being stabbed by needles in their meridians, and their whole bodies were in excruciating pain.
It is expected that the members who died in the pit were unable to successfully jump to the shore because of the presence of this aura.
After that, they caught many birds, destroyed the spiritual energy in the birds and threw them into the deep pit, but the result was the same, no one survived;
It can be deduced that under the deep pit, not only the spiritual energy will be restricted, but also the flying ability of the animal body of the bird itself will be suppressed by some strange force. Once it falls, it will be difficult to easily climb up again.
After discovering many anomalies one after another, everyone in the team realized that the deep pit was not simple. It was very likely that there was some kind of unknown forbidden treasure. It might be an ancient secret treasure that was hidden in the snow.
A few disciples were immediately left to take care of him, while the rest rushed back to their respective sects to report the discovery.
However.
When many forces heard the news and came.
The disciples responsible for looking after the pit have all disappeared.
What's even more strange is that there are no traces of battle at all, and there are not even signs of birds and animals appearing. Everything is eerily quiet.
Many forces, including the Holy Sect, questioned and interrogated the disciples who had sent the message to their families, and had to swear an oath one by one before answering. The final result was still the same as the original rhetoric. Only then did they believe it one by one, ruling out artificial arrangements.
possible.
However, even after dispatching several Heavenly Soul Realm post-breath masters to jointly investigate, it took three full days, but they still could not find out the reality of the pit. One of them even almost caught the trace of the strange aura in the pit, and folded in it.
on the spot.
Just when all the forces and powerful people were about to give up and classify it as an unsolvable mystery.
A sudden vision occurred.
After being silent for many days, the deep pit suddenly reflected a blood-red color, and a strange light spread like blood in the forest.
Covered by this halo, a mysterious and destructive aura filled the pit;
The surrounding vegetation withered and withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the trees twisted and shrunk into hemp ropes.
All the powerful forces and powerful men retreated and dodged in shock.
Only when the blood-red halo stopped expanding and dyed a large area of the sky red did he feel relieved.
They originally wanted to find some beasts to test the reality of this vision, but everyone was shocked to find that not even half a living beast, not even an ant or a bug, could be found within a few miles of the pit.
It just seemed like it had become a dead land.
Members of the previous team raised suspicions, saying that the disciples who were responsible for guarding may have something to do with the sudden disappearance of the animals and birds in the mountain, and may have been led into the deep pit out of thin air.
After some analysis by the powerful forces, they felt that it was reasonable. If the deep pit really involves a rare and deep secret realm, and if that secret realm is based on the entire Wuming Mountain, it is indeed possible for it to cover the area.
All living things disappeared.
To be precise, perhaps the opening of such a secret realm requires the aura or blood of thousands of living beings within a few miles to provide energy and meet the essential conditions for opening.
Later, the red light that illuminated the sky in the deep pit dissipated, and everything was restrained into the deep pit, turning into a oozing blood-colored vortex portal, which finally verified everyone's analysis and speculation.
As expected, the bloody vortex revealed a mysterious power of teleportation.
Everyone determined that it was the gateway to such a forbidden place.
After some discussion among the elders of the Holy Sect, they all thought of the legendary record in the ancient books about the place where the Holy Spirit Clan's Saint died.
At first, it was just suspicion. After several days of waiting, all the forces couldn't bear their curiosity and sent dead soldiers to break in to investigate. After more than ten days, dozens of dead soldiers sent by various forces finally found someone from the deep secret realm.
Came out alive.
But the person who broke out was seriously injured and was dying.
His words before his death shocked and stunned all the powerful men who stayed in the pit.
That person first confirmed that there was a secret realm in the pit.
Everyone knew this when they saw him come out alive, but they were not surprised.
But what he said next far exceeded everyone's expectations.
He claimed that there are living people in the secret realm...!
And all of them are living people with the strength of the Heavenly Soul Realm!
Even though he just said a few words, his breath was gone and his soul was gone.
However, the powerful people from various forces still saw a lot of clues based on the many injuries on this person's body.
The most obvious point is the discovery of the ancient Ming clan's unique Qi of the Ancient Ming clan contained in his wounds. It was precisely because of the existence of this evil aura that it destroyed and corrupted the man's vitality and allowed him to
The injuries, which should not have been fatal, were so serious.
thereafter.
In order to take over the secret realm here, the Holy Sect slowly researched and took out the classics about the Holy Spirit Tribe and the Ancient Underworld Tribe, claiming that this pit was the 'Holy Fire Underworld' that was banned by their ancestors, and it should belong to them.
Many forces seemed unwilling to accept this move. After some disputes, they made an agreement that the Holy Sect would be in charge and all forces would co-manage it. Every time it is opened, all forces must have the right to know.
since then.
After hundreds of years of exploration, today, the general outline of the Holy Fire Abyss has been basically figured out.
Regarding the phenomenon of deep pits, it can occur once every three years or as long as seven or eight years. The time is not fixed. Every time it appears, all living creatures within a few miles will be sacrificed to death.
If you carefully sense the changes in the spiritual energy in the mountain, you can predict the specific opening date in advance within a certain period of time.
And every time the bloody vortex enters the Holy Fire Abyss, it will remain there for about half a month.
The specific maintenance time is rumored to be related to the first time the aura changes in Wuming Mountain were sensed. It may be longer or shorter, but it is generally around half a month.
During this period, you can freely enter and leave the Holy Fire Abyss.
As for the scene inside the Holy Fire Abyss;
From the first official large-scale intrusion, only a few survived, to now when tens of thousands of people entered, half of them came back alive. As early as through repeated explorations, the general details were figured out.
Not to mention knowing 100% of the entire secret realm, there are still some who know more than 70%.
There are indeed some members of the Ancient Underworld tribe who have survived to this day, but their situation in the Holy Fire Underworld Abyss is not good. They are also restricted by the power of the ban and can only live in a small area of the secret space.
Only when the secret realm is opened can we have the opportunity to break out of that humble place.
As for outside monks who plunder resources, they will inevitably fight and fight with the Guming people.
It can be said that the Holy Fire Abyss is not a secret treasure house of chance in the traditional sense, but more like a training and fighting battlefield for today's human monks.
Only the monks who survive in the end are qualified to take away the resources inside.
And if it dies in the hands of people from the Ancient Underworld, it will become the nourishment for their cultivation.
And they rely on this part of the supply, and each time the secret realm is opened, their overall strength has been significantly improved compared to the previous time.
Unfortunately, due to the power of the ban, the ancient underworld energy in their bodies cannot escape from the Holy Fire Underworld Space.
If not, I am afraid that I would have taken advantage of every opening opportunity to escape into the present world.
…
Outside Wuming Mountain.
Lu Feng, Xi Youmeng and his party slowly moved towards the pit.
While walking, Xi Youmeng spoke with some anxiety: "It's still delayed. I don't know how long it has been since the entrance opened."
Lu Feng looked at the sky deep in Wuming Mountain. Based on his understanding of the Holy Fire Abyss, he knew that what Xi Youmeng said was referring to the bloody vision.
Now that the vision has disappeared, it seems that the entrance to the bloody vortex has appeared.
I am afraid that all the large troops from various forces have entered the Holy Fire Abyss.
After Xi Youmeng murmured to himself, he looked at Lu Feng seriously, "Master Jiang, before he turns back and enters the Holy Fire Abyss, what team should he look for to protect him?"
"Team?" Lu Feng was startled, and trainee Youmeng cast a doubtful look, and replied casually: "I have been in retreat in the ghost domain for too long. I don't know much about the latest news about the Holy Fire Abyss. I don't know about this team. What does asylum mean?”
He really didn't know about this. The last time the Holy Fire Abyss was opened, he was still young. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it was during the time when he was beaten by Xi Youmeng. Most of the information about the Holy Fire Abyss came from I heard it from the mouths of the senior brothers and sisters of Qinghe Sect.
Now, although he is strong enough to take risks, most of the specific details about the Holy Fire Abyss are only gleaned from Jun Manlou's message axis, and a general appearance is known, and some details are not clear.
But one thing he can confirm is that there should be no such thing as team protection in the past openings. He has studied the detailed information about the Holy Fire Abyss in the past few times.
The team said that it seemed that it was something that appeared temporarily this time, and perhaps it only appeared in a recent period of time, and the news was blocked just now.
Xi Youmeng glanced at Lu Feng doubtfully, and continued on his way, while responding and explaining: "In view of the last time that the Holy Fire Abyss was opened, after our human race forces broke in, we encountered the ancient underworld tribe who united to defeat the few with more, or The situation was defeated one by one, so it started again this time. Many forces jointly discussed countermeasures and decided not to act alone as much as possible, but to work together as a team to advance and retreat together."
"It is now known that there are about dozens of teams formed, led by one of the top forces today, such as the Holy Sect of the Holy Domain, the Qinghe Sect of your Snow Region, the Bingquan Sect, and the Xuan Region's
Jun family, Qin family..."
Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, then interrupted: "Young Pavilion Master, this hat is too big. As an evil cultivator, I don't dare to have anything to do with a force like the Qinghe Sect."
Xi Youmeng pouted in frustration, thinking of using this to mention it quietly to see Lu Feng's reaction. If he didn't notice anything strange, then he thought that his guess was much more accurate, but he didn't expect it to happen in an instant.
It was reacted.
At the moment, Xi Youmeng felt a little confused again, and he became confused, "Okay, it's not your Qinghe Sect, I accidentally said something wrong, it's your ghost domain, this time all the good and evil forces are allowed to enter the Holy Fire Abyss, and the decision has been made.
In order to reach an agreement that no force will be used in the Wuming Mountain area, regardless of good or evil, regardless of hatred, you can seek protection from the team in the Ghost Realm."
Lu Feng had a general understanding of the so-called team, and smiled disapprovingly, "I am now wearing your Shadow Pavilion's clothes and makeup, so I should take the Young Pavilion Master's lead in everything. Which team to choose, I will be responsible for.
It's up to you, Young Pavilion Master, to have the final say."
Xi Youmeng heard this, with a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes, and said: "It would be great to have more protection in the Holy Fire Abyss. I intend to seek protection from the Qinghe Sect's team or the Tianlian Sect's team.
What do you think, Mr. Jiang? Which side do you think is more appropriate?"
When Lu Feng heard such words, he couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.
It seems that this is another test for Xi Youmeng.
