Chapter 1056: Chapter 1056: Bizarre Qiuming Abyss

After Meng Rulang left, he did not come back with reinforcements to launch a surprise attack, as if the matter was concluded.

Seven days passed quickly.

Qin Jun looked around; the stars became sparser, and the spiritual aura grew denser, forming seas of clouds.

The Sun Star was far away from this region, making the starry sky very dim. Qin Jun even felt the atmosphere was quite solemn, filled with a pervasive killing intent.

"We are approaching the Qiuming Abyss; this is my second visit here."

Fairy Nansu suddenly appeared beside Qin Jun and spoke, her beautiful eyes staring ahead full of wariness.

"Oh? The second time?"

Qin Jun raised an eyebrow, wondering if Fairy Nansu had already failed once before?

Fairy Nansu said resentfully, "The malevolent aura inside was too intense; I dared not enter on my own. I went searching for the secret words to become stronger, but alas."

Pfft!

This lady seems obsessed with the secret words.

Thick-skinned, Qin Jun said, "It seems you are lucky to have met me."

Fairy Nansu rolled her eyes; this guy really was shameless.

When she was not very familiar with Qin Jun, she thought he was a dignified and proud genius. Little did she know, once they got to know each other, he would be this shameless.

The four dragons continued their journey, and soon the legendary Qiuming Abyss appeared.

A giant island floated among the clouds, resembling a great dark beast lying in the starry sky. Billowing thunderclouds covered billions of miles, incessant lightning strikes threatening to shatter the giant island.

Qin Jun squinted, feeling the Qiuming Abyss to be hazy. Staring at it too long made his head dizzy, quite eerie indeed.

"This island is Sinister Island, ominous."

Fuxi spoke gravely; even he, who had reached full enlightenment in the Holy Realm, was apprehensive about the Qiuming Abyss, which spoke volumes about its terror.

Fairy Nansu nodded, "Initially, I felt the malevolent energy was too powerful, so I didn’t go inside."

"You were just scared, say it straight," Qin Jun teased with a laugh, making Fairy Nansu want to hit him.

Jokes aside, Qin Jun also felt the Qiuming Abyss was sinister.

It was more sinister than any place he had visited before.

The giant island, entwined by lightning and surrounded by a starless sky, devoid even of meteors, was sporadically illuminated by lightning, like a fierce demon hidden in the dark.

The sound of thunder was like the roaring of this dark demon, chilling to the bone.

"With me here, I will ensure your safety, Your Majesty!"

Qiang Liang arrogantly hummed, clearly not taking the Qiuming Abyss seriously.

Qin Jun laughed, "In that case, let’s go in!"

After saying this, he leaped forward, flying towards the Qiuming Abyss, followed closely by Qiang Liang, Fuxi, Zhao Gongming, and Fairy Nansu, who brought her cat demon. The four black dragons remained behind.

Qiang Liang quickly moved to the front of Qin Jun, clearing the path.

Soon, they reached the electric zone of the Qiuming Abyss. Qiang Liang, the ancestral witch of thunder, dissipated the approaching lightning bolts automatically, a sight that made Fairy Nansu’s pupils constrict.

"What is the origin of this man that even the heavenly lightning of the Qiuming Abyss retreats before him..."

Fairy Nansu thought fearfully inside; the Qiuming Abyss had imprisoned countless powerhouses, who had madly slaughtered each other inside. The murder and resentment, through countless years of evolution, had turned into a horrific curse.

Because of the curse, neither heaven nor earth could bear it. Thunder covered the Qiuming Abyss, effectively a warning to all creatures to stay away.

Yet many, fearless of death, wanted to rush in; the Qiuming Abyss had seen the fall of numerous powerhouses, definitely harboring various opportunities inside.

As Qin Jun flew, he also noticed the traces of other creatures in the distance, dodging the thunder, intending to break into the Qiuming Abyss.

"Interesting."

Qin Jun softly laughed, he suddenly had a premonition.

The White Emperor had once entered the Qiuming Abyss.

After the great battle between humans and monsters, the White Emperor mysteriously disappeared, obviously having gone beyond the heavens, and regarding the Qiuming Emperor’s Qiuming Abyss, could he remain unmoved?

"Beyond the starry sky, the ancient path of the sage emperors."

"Detachment from the celestial prison, the lifeforce of the Great Dao."

These two lines emerged again in Qin Jun’s mind, prompting him to ponder deeply.

Could these lines represent something?

He remembered when he had first triggered the system, the system had mentioned it was transformed from the lifeforce of the Great Dao, could it be related?

What does the ancient path of the sage emperors mean?

Qin Jun couldn’t figure it out, and at the same time, they passed through the thunderstorm area, about to enter the Qiuming Abyss.

Looking intently, the Qiuming Abyss, this huge island was immensely desolate, its peaks like demonic shadows in the night, chilling to the bone, and the faintly heard sound of flowing water was enough to give one goosebumps.

"Heavens are blind! I hate! I hate!"

Just then, a resentful roar filled with venom erupted, startling Qin Jun and the others, who looked forward but saw no living creature.

"It’s the wronged souls of the Qiuming Abyss, according to the person who had once escaped after entering the realm of the sage, in the Qiuming Abyss, wronged souls roar from time to time, and he had hardly slept well for tens of thousands of years."

Fairy Nansu spoke gravely, only truly sensing the terror of the Qiuming Abyss once they drew near.

Far more horrifying than the legends.

Wronged souls?

Qin Jun and his companions contemplated, and soon, they landed and came to the edge of a cliff of the Qiuming Abyss.

Ahead was an endless wasteland, and at the edge of the earth were peaks like long spikes, pointing straight at the sky.

"Huh?"

Zhao Gongming suddenly exclaimed in surprised doubt, Qin Jun and the others turned around, stunned to discover the cliff and the starry sky behind had vanished, replaced by the boundless wasteland.

It was as if they had fallen into the central area of the Qiuming Abyss, the feeling was extremely eerie.

"Could this be an illusionary formation?" asked Zhao Gongming, frowning.

Fuxi shook his head: "It’s not an illusion."

Fairy Nansu’s cat demon, Seven, was so frightened that its fur stood on end, its eyes wide open.

"Let’s proceed, our aim is to find the Soul Returning River, beside the river there is Cold Moon Glass Grass."

Fairy Nansu shook her head, standing there, they could already hear the sound of the river’s flow, filling her with anticipation.

If they could find the Cold Moon Glass Grass quickly, they could also escape sooner.

Qin Jun nodded, and they walked onward.

In the Qiuming Abyss, they dared not fly freely, as Fairy Nansu had said, the restrictive formations within the Qiuming Abyss were excessively numerous, even the slightest inattention could damn one to eternal hell.

After they had walked a kilometer, a white figure appeared where they originally landed.

It was vaguely visible as a woman in white, like a spectral image, and what was chilling was her bleeding from all seven orifices and her eyes wide open, staring hatefully in the direction of Qin Jun and others without blinking.

"Extreme Flame Demon... the wretched Extreme Flame Demon..."

The voice of the woman in white was filled with endless hatred, she then began walking towards Qin Jun and the others.

While walking, Qin Jun seemed to sense something, he looked back, but in his view, except for the wasteland, there was no woman in white.

Fuxi, however, furrowed his brows and said in a grave voice: "This is bad! There’s a murderous aura!"
