Chapter 2129 - 2130: A Tremendous Surprise! Five Updates
On that day, a notice was posted within Star River Ancient City.
Emperor Abyss Devils have awakened. From today onwards, the Cosmic Abyss will be tenfold, a hundredfold more dangerous than before. Any Martial Artist must not easily venture into the Cosmic Abyss to hunt Abyss Devils.
This news isn’t really surprising, as people have already witnessed the Emperor Abyss Devils. The most shocking part is another rumor.
It’s said that as more Emperor Abyss Devils awaken, there might emerge even more powerful beings. If any Emperor Abyss Devil evolves, a stronger Abyss Devil could appear, leading to a devil tide. Along the Star River Road, the presence of Abyss Devils will be everywhere.
Star River Ancient City will also face threats.
"Is this news reliable or just unfounded rumors?" Someone questioned, finding the news alarming. The Emperor Abyss Devils are already terrifying enough. If an even stronger existence emerges from among them, what will happen?
Will Star River Ancient City still be safe?
No one can be sure.
Many people feel their future is bleak and wish to leave Star River Road, but they can’t.
"There can’t be a mistake. Historical records show that whenever the first Emperor Abyss Devil appears, a devil tide follows. At that time, the sky will be stained with blood, the ground piled high with corpses..." Someone pulled out an ancient book and pointed to the records for everyone to see.
Everyone who read this passage fell silent.
Devil tide!
As the name implies, many Abyss Devils will appear, and at that time, the shadow of Abyss Devils will be everywhere. Star River Road will no longer be their training ground but the territory of Abyss Devils.
Does this mean the devil tide is coming?
Someone felt the sky was falling, unable to accept it. They came to Star River Road to train, not to die.
"Alas, we should blame our luck. Previous groups that came here didn’t encounter such things. Who would’ve thought we’d hit upon this?" Someone sighed.
The Emperor Abyss Devils hadn’t appeared for hundreds of years. No wonder someone lamented, as historical records describe that whenever a devil tide occurs, many will die, meaning many present won’t survive.
"Perhaps we shouldn’t be too pessimistic. Isn’t there someone strong enough to support the sky? As long as there are order enforcers, we should be safe." Someone said, putting hope in the enforcers.
At this point, someone sneered, "It’s true that enforcers are strong, but don’t forget how many enforcers there are in this ancient city. Moreover, if devils stronger than Emperor Abyss Devils appear, do you think enforcers will have time to bother about our lives and deaths? At that time, everyone will be self-absorbed."
As if a basin of cold water was poured, many felt their hands and feet icy cold, realizing death wasn’t far.
"Isn’t there a way to survive this devil tide?" Someone was unwilling. Everyone who got here had a lofty ambition and was resilient. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have set foot on Star River Road.
The young man with the ancient book spoke, "Actually, there is a way."
His words drew everyone’s attention, eager to know what way. He slowly said, "We must quickly strengthen our capabilities before the devil tide arrives. Only by becoming powerful ourselves would we have a higher chance of survival in dangerous times, without relying on others for our lives."
Everyone: "..."
Isn’t this just obvious? They thought it was some method. Everyone knows they must hurry to become stronger.
But what he said isn’t wrong. The world of Martial Artists is essentially survival of the fittest.
No strength means only facing elimination.
"Before the devil tide arrives, this world will also give us a lifeline because the Emperor Abyss Devils appear one after another. They will first fight among themselves. Until the strongest appear, they won’t unite and occupy the entire Star River Road."
"What is the lifeline?" People were more focused on what the lifeline was. Everyone knew they must become stronger, but with the Cosmic Abyss tenfold more dangerous, it’s even harder to enhance strength. Even hunting Abyss Devils requires caution; if they provoke Emperor Abyss Devils, it’s surely death.
"The so-called lifeline is also under the Cosmic Abyss. If you go down the cliff, reaching a certain depth, you might discover Xuanhuang Qi."
Xuanhuang Qi?
What is that? Many hadn’t heard of it.
But soon someone explained, Xuanhuang Qi is a mysterious gas produced at the birth of the universe. This gas is useless to Abyss Devils; they even resent it. But for human Martial Artists, Xuanhuang Qi is a great supplement, able to increase strength.
Given it’s a gas from the universe’s inception, once obtained, it not only aids in overcoming the Heavenly Tribulation but also can meld with weapons to enhance them and even merge with the soul, strengthening it.
In short, Xuanhuang Qi offers numerous benefits.
Generally, obtaining Xuanhuang Qi is nearly impossible due to its scarcity.
Additionally, it’s hidden beneath the Cosmic Abyss. Once people delve into the depths, they face attacks from many Abyss Devils.
But it’s different now. Many Abyss Devils will gather and fight to produce the strongest, creating vacuum zones under the Cosmic Abyss.
This allows people to seize the opportunity to obtain Xuanhuang Qi.
Hearing about Xuanhuang Qi’s immense power, no one isn’t tempted; some can’t wait to get it.
However, obtaining Xuanhuang Qi is also full of risks and opportunities. If they haven’t found Xuanhuang Qi before encountering Emperor Abyss Devils, it spells trouble.
It’s all up to luck and ability.
For a moment, people began forming teams. Order enforcers observed but didn’t stop them, having already posted notices that the Cosmic Abyss differs greatly from before, with increased danger.
Since order enforcers didn’t stop them, it seemed they tacitly approved, and people felt perhaps even the enforcers hoped they acted so.
Seeking fortune in peril, with greater danger coming, they might as well take a risk.
Numerous Saint Heirs were already acting, like Xiaoyao Holy Son and Lieyan Holy Son. Even many secluded Saint Heirs were appearing, such as Ye Qiu after reaching the ancient city, with the Mother Mountain Holy Son, who hadn’t been seen, also leading people to the Cosmic Abyss, trying their luck.
Ye Qiu didn’t take action immediately, because he had just made a major discovery. Deep within the ancient city, he unexpectedly found the Fengchan Steles!
And not just one Fengchan Stele, but a total of four!
What concept are four Fengchan Steles? Regardless, seeing so many steles in front, even a Supreme Saint like Ye Qiu couldn’t remain calm.
This is a tremendous surprise!
