Under the Cangwu Abyss, darkness filled everything.
Countless branches protrude from the abyss mountain wall, and are filled with dense crows.
They opened their gloomy eyes, screamed strangely, and were not afraid of strangers, staring closely at Xu Zimo and the two.
The two jumped down and jumped towards the bottom of the abyss.
The further inside, the stronger the evil spirit becomes.
Evil energy seemed to invade their bodies all the time.
The two people were surrounded by spiritual energy, blocking out all the evil spirits.
Going all the way down, no one knew how deep the abyss was. Finally, when they saw tombstones, the two figures landed and stopped.
It's a bit like a mass grave here.
It's eerie and chilly.
The tombstones are all anonymous, and there are piles of soil as high as a hill next to them.
A vulture flew overhead again, picking up some piece of flesh and blood and swallowing it into its sharp mouth.
"Look around," Xu Zimo said.
Xie Changliu nodded.
The two of them walked around along these nameless monuments.
Xu Zimo walked for a while and stopped in front of a wall.
There are countless words engraved on this wall.
It has "Hate hate hate!" written all over it.
Countless words of hate seemed to turn into endless resentment and rush out from the wall, swallowing up Xu Zimo.
As he walked along the wall, the word "man" was densely carved on it.
At this moment, a "pop" sound came.
A vulture flying in mid-air was suddenly caught by a hand and crushed to pieces.
Flesh and blood flew everywhere.
The arm connected to the big hand is dozens of meters long, leading all the way to the ground.
"A new person is here, hahahaha," a burst of laughter suddenly came.
This voice is very strange, sometimes old and sometimes childish.
"Who?" Xu Zimo asked with a frown.
"You can call me Old Man Abyss," the voice said slowly.
When the sound fell, the whole earth trembled.
A long crack opened under his feet, spreading out like a spider web.
A head composed of countless white bones floated up.
This head is made of countless white bones, with countless eyes, mouths and noses. It is difficult to describe its appearance.
And on those unnamed tombstones, arms stretched out from them.
There are as many arms as there are tombstones, and each arm is dozens of meters long.
"Living in Cangwu for millions of years, he is immortal and calls himself the Old Man of the Abyss," the voice chuckled.
"I've never heard of it," Xie Changliu, who also came from not far away, said calmly.
"I haven't heard of it. It's normal. After all, few people who come to Cangwu Abyss can get out alive," the old man in Abyss said with a smile.
"In this million years, there are only two people."
"Which two people?" Xu Zimo asked.
"The Mountain Ghost King from 700,000 years ago, and his evil thoughts," said the old man in the abyss.
"Why are you here?" Xie Changliu asked.
"I have no way of answering this. When the Cangwu Abyss existed, I was here.
This is equivalent to my home," Old Man Abyss replied.
"Are you okay?" Xu Zimo asked.
"Come and make a deal with you," Old Man Abyss said with a smile.
"Just like those evil thoughts, I can send you away from here."
"What are the conditions?" Xu Zimo asked.
"Let me devour half of your soul," Old Man Abyss said with a smile.
"This is impossible," Xie Changliu refused directly before Xu Zimo could answer.
Soul is one of the most important things in a person.
Not to mention splitting it in half, even just a little bit is enough to severely damage a person's vitality.
This kind of fragmentation and devouring is permanent damage and is difficult to repair through recovery.
"Don't be in a hurry, you can think about it slowly," Old Abyss said with a smile.
"After you have spent tens of thousands of years in this Cangwu Abyss, you will compromise.
I have met many people like you."
Xu Zimo and Xie Changliu looked at each other.
I saw Xie Changliu rising into the air, with a sharp sword intent all over his body, piercing the ninth level of the sky with one sword, and slashing down.
Looking at the incoming sword energy, Old Man Abyss slowly stretched out an arm, and with a gentle squeeze of his palm, the invisible sword energy was actually pinched in his hand.
With a wave of his palm, the sword energy was directly thrown away.
With a "bang" sound, the sword energy sank into the wall next to it, and was chopped into pieces like tofu.
"Stop doing useless work, you can't do anything to me," said the old man in the abyss.
Xie Changliu seemed unwilling to give in, and waved his right hand again, and the sword in his hand floated above his head.
Endless sword energy condenses on it.
The void is fragmented, but the sword's will lasts forever.
"Kill," Xie Changliu shouted, holding a long sword and rushing towards Old Man Abyss.
This time, Old Man Abyss stretched out two arms, with heavy strength in both hands.
Evil energy breeds and turns into dark forces.
The sound of "boom, boom, boom" came.
The hands were clasped together and Xie Changliu's sharp sword was sandwiched between the two palms.
For a while, the two of them were deadlocked.
More and more evil spirits are intertwined with the sharp sword intent.
When his strength reached a critical point, Old Man Abyss waved his hands and threw Xie Changliu away.
Another "boom" explosion came, and Xie Changliu's figure hit the unknown tombstone next to it.
"You two should forget about pure strength. You have to trade half your soul in exchange for lifelong freedom. You should be the ones who have earned this kind of deal," Old Man Abyss said with a smile.
Xu Zimo chuckled lightly and asked: "In exchange for half a soul, why should we believe you?
What if you go back on your word?"
"Whether you believe it or not depends on whether you dare to gamble," said the old man in the abyss.
"At least you have to tell us how to set off, so that we can have credibility," Xu Zimo replied.
"It's okay to tell you. Anyway, only I can implement this method," said the old man in the abyss.
"When the Cangwu Abyss was formed, there were countless soul-based mystical medicines here.
So many people came here to look for the mysterious medicine. When more people came, fighting, robbing, and war were inevitable.
Millions of years ago, there were two powerful countries surrounding the Cangwu Abyss, and they both wanted to divide the Cangwu Abyss into their own territories.
So a big war started over this.
After the war ended, countless people died in the Cangwu Abyss, numbering in the millions.
I was born amidst the growth of evil spirits and the intertwining of Yin energy and death energy.
I and this Cangwu Abyss are one and the same.
Seven hundred thousand years ago, Shan Guikui used a seal to seal his evil thoughts here.
Although this sealing formation is powerful, it is ultimately a foreign object.
I can turn the abyss of Cangwu and forcibly open a path, but this will consume countless energy.
Therefore, I must swallow the soul as a reward before I can do it."
"Are you so kind?" Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"I see that you are not very strong yourself. Knowing that you can't do anything to us, you use this formation to try to devour our souls.
Otherwise, if you are strong, why would you make a deal with us?"
