"A few elders? What are you talking about? What is the Land of the Abyss?" Ling Yunfeng said with a confused look on his face, not knowing what these elders were talking about.
"Captain, it's like this. The Land of the Abyss is a secret place in the Cangming Territory. It will be opened almost every thirty years or so. Every time it is opened, it will be accompanied by some strange phenomena in the world. Today's situation is a bit like
This is the scene before the land of the underworld is about to open.
But whether this will be the case then, we still have to go and check it out in person and observe it for a few days to see!" Huang Guan explained.
"Oh? What's so special about the Land of the Abyss?" Ling Yunfeng asked with a raised brow, showing great interest in this Land of the Abyss.
"Captain, it's a long story to talk about the land of the Abyss. Let's go and investigate first and then come back to the details." Huang Guan said.
"Well, okay." Ling Yunfeng nodded, and then said to the mercenaries who went to fetch water for cooking: "You go find some clean water for cooking, and the elders and I will go investigate."
"yes!"
Immediately, Ling Yunfeng, Huang Guan and other five elders quickly rushed to the nearby river...
About half an hour later, Ling Yunfeng and others stood on the bank of a river, looking at the turbid water flowing in the opposite direction. Their faces changed slightly, and they were all thoughtful.
At this time, they had looked at the conditions of five nearby rivers in succession, and every river looked like this.
"Looking at this situation, it is really possible that the Land of the Abyss will be opened." Huang Guan sighed slightly, then looked at Ling Yunfeng and said: "Captain, let's go back first."
"Um!"
An hour later, everyone in the Wuyi Mercenary Group finished lunch and went about their own business.
In a large tent, Ling Yunfeng and five elders were sitting in it.
"Elders, can you tell me now where the Abyss is?" Ling Yunfeng asked, looking at everyone.
"Let Elder Huang speak." The five elders looked at each other and said.
"Okay, then let me do it." Huang Guan did not refuse, and then said to Ling Yunfeng: "Captain, it's like this, the land of the deep abyss is a special place in the Cangming region, the land of the deep abyss
Deep in the Cangming Mountains, it is opened every thirty years. Although everyone knows the specific location of the Abyss, they cannot enter it at all."
"Why? Is there some powerful being guarding it?" Ling Yunfeng asked doubtfully.
"That's not true, it's just that this place of the Abyss is usually buried tens of millions of feet underground, and people can't enter at all." Huang Guan said.
"Buried deep and deep underground?" Hearing this, Ling Yunfeng said in surprise, becoming even more curious about the land of the Abyss.
Following Huang Guan's narration, Ling Yunfeng learned that this land of the underworld is located in a large valley in the Cangming Mountains. It is a strange space deep underground that is born once every thirty years or so.
Every thirty years or so, a huge crack will open in the big valley, and an underground space will appear. Everything in the underground space is basically the same as the outside world. There are also mountains, water, and creatures living in it.
in.
Moreover, most of the creatures in the underground space are the same as those in this world, and only a small part are creatures derived from the special underground environment that are not found in the outside world.
Because this strange space is deep underground and resembles a huge abyss, it was vividly named the Land of the Abyss by predecessors.
Hearing about the land of the underworld, Ling Yunfeng couldn't help but think of the movie "Journey to the Center of the Earth" adapted from the novel by Jules Verne, a novelist in his previous life. It was about a space buried deep underground.
.
The content he wrote in the novel was just a ridiculous and incredible conjecture in the eyes of those in the previous life, but in this world such a space really exists. At this time, Ling Yunfeng began to admire the novelist a little.
.
According to Huang Guan, in the three months before each time the land of the Abyss is opened, strange phenomena such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and rivers flowing backward will occur in the entire Cangming Region every seven days. In the Land of the Abyss
In the first seven days, there was lightning and thunder in the sky, strong winds, and heavy rain, as if the end of the world was coming.
And every time the land of the underworld is opened, it will cause a sensation in the entire Cangming Region, because the land of the underworld is only opened every thirty years. No one has set foot in it for thirty years. There are countless elixirs derived from it, and many
He is also a genius treasure of a very high level.
Among them, because of the special environment underground, many strange treasures will be derived, and some treasures can even make an ordinary cultivator become a strong man known throughout the continent.
This is not just nonsense. Such things have happened in the previous openings of the Abyss. It is said that several ordinary martial artists have received special opportunities in it. After coming out, their strength has skyrocketed and they have become
The overlord of one side.
Therefore, every time the land of the Abyss is opened, it will attract many people in the Abyss to explore, including many who have Martial Kings and powerful Martial Emperors.
Many people still hold on to the idea that they will encounter a rare opportunity and become a Martial King, or even a powerful Martial King.
"I remember that I also went to the Land of the Abyss to hunt for treasure. I was still young at that time. I was also a young man with some illusions. I also believed that I would get amazing opportunities there and became the top powerhouse on the continent." Huang
Guan said with a wry smile, remembering that he was also a complacent young man back then, but time is not forgiving, and in the blink of an eye he was already half a century old.
"Oh? Did Elder Huang encounter any opportunities back then?" Ling Yunfeng asked curiously.
The other four elders also came over and wanted to know what happened to Huang Guan in the Land of the Abyss. Although they had heard of the Land of the Abyss, they had never been there.
"How can there be any chance? I almost even lost my life there." Huang Guan smiled awkwardly.
"Oh? What's going on?" Lu Fan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"This...this...is hard to say!" Huang Guan said hesitantly, his face turning a little red.
"Elder Huang, you are not interesting enough. You are not willing to reveal such a trivial matter to us." Lu Yifan said.
"It's just that what Elder Huang said, why don't you want to tell us? Haha!"
"Yes, Elder Huang, you are too stingy. You don't even tell us this."
"Yes, Elder Huang is so boring." The other three elders also laughed and cheered.
"Elder Huang, just tell me." Ling Yunfeng also smiled slightly and looked at Huang Guandao.
"Okay, let's just say it. It's not too shameful." Huang Guan hesitated and said, "Actually, there are a lot of opportunities in the Land of the Abyss, but you have to have the strength to take it. If you don't have the strength in there,
When you reach the level of Wuzong, you basically make wedding clothes for others."
Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Huang Guancai continued: "There are indeed a lot of elixirs growing there, but the murders and looting are countless times more rampant than anywhere else in the outside world. If you don't have the strength, the things in your hands will still be there.
It may not be yours. You may encounter a group of robbers in the next moment and rob you of everything. If you encounter someone who is more ruthless, your life will be gone. Therefore, there will be countless people every time.
Fall into it."
"I encountered three robbers that year." Huang Guan's eyes flickered and he whispered.
"Oh? Elder Huang, how did you escape?" After hearing this, everyone asked nervously.
"I handed over all my belongings to them without saying a word. Fortunately, the people I met were not murderous people, so I was lucky enough to save my life." Huang Guan said awkwardly.
"What? Elder Huang, you just handed the things over to them?" Lu Fan said with his eyes widened.
"Then what else can I do? I was just a small martial artist at the time, and there were dozens of people who were stronger than me among dozens of people. What could I do? Do I want to fight them to the death?" Huang Guan rolled his eyes at him and said.
.
"I will definitely fight against them. What I have worked so hard for is given to others. How can you be willing to do so?"
"Yes, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated. Elder Huang, you are a coward."
"That's right, Elder Huang, I'm ashamed of you." Several elders joked.
"There is nothing shameful about it. In my opinion, being able to save your life is the most important thing. If you die, you will have nothing. Besides, even if you die, you must die well. Doing something you know you cannot do is an act of a fool.
You still have the nerve to say that, then why didn’t you resist when the group leader broke into the door?" Huang Guan retorted with a blushing face.
"Hey! Okay, everyone, please stop talking. What Elder Huang did at that time was indeed a wise move, and he was a wise man who understood the current affairs." Ling Yunfeng quickly stood up and made peace, so as to prevent these elders from arguing.
It's not good to start with.
This is not because Ling Yunfeng is overly worried, but that this matter is really possible. Lu Yifan and other elders have not completely let go of the destruction of their power, and at this time Huang Guan brings it up again.
He really knows how to fight.
"Haha! Yes, Elder Huang, I was just joking."
"Haha, just joking." Seeing the group leader speaking, several elders quickly laughed along with him.
"Everyone, what I just said was just angry words, and I didn't mean anything against you. I apologize to you here. Please forgive me." Huang Guan also realized that he had gone too far, and quickly apologized.
"Elder Huang, what are you talking about? We are all our own people now, why should we be so polite."
"Yes, Elder Huang, everyone is just joking." Several elders said with a smile.
Seeing that what he was most worried about did not happen, Ling Yunfeng breathed a sigh of relief and asked Huang Guan: "Elder Huang, according to what you said, the land of the underworld will be opened in three months?"
"We're not sure yet. We'll see what happens after seven days," Huang Guan said.
"Oh." Ling Yunfeng nodded, his face changing slightly. If the land of the underworld really opened up, such a strange place, it would be a pity not to go there.
