Chapter 4: Into the Abyss

The stone forest was unusually silent, in sharp contrast to the ancient forest that had just passed.

The insects and beasts roar in the ancient forest, but the silence here is terrifying, and it feels as if you have come to another world.

The whole stone forest was gloomy, exuding a breath that made people's hearts palpitate, and before entering the scope of the stone forest, they felt the cold air of the forest eroding and reaching the soul.

Yuan Xi and the others hurriedly used their vitality to warm themselves and prevent the temperature in their bodies from draining.

As far as the eye can see in the stone forest, there are dense strange stones, there are smooth and flat boulders Chen Heng, there are also sharp and steep peaks, and even some boulders have many holes, these holes are all black and swarthy, I don't know where to lead.

There is very little vegetation in the stone forest, and occasionally a few sparse vegetation trees can be seen in the stone crevices that are tenaciously alive.

"This is the entrance to the Tomb Abyss? Where's the entrance? ”

The purple-clothed young man stood on tiptoe and looked curiously at the stone forest in front of him.

He had heard some senior brothers in the sect say that the Tomb Abyss was the place where the predecessors of the sect were born to die, and some of the predecessors would choose to enter the Tomb Abyss to seek a breakthrough opportunity when Shouyuan was about to come.

If it breaks through, everyone will naturally be happy, and if it fails, then it will face the arrival of death, so this stone forest can also be said to be the exclusive cemetery of the strong men of Xuantian Sect.

The entire stone forest, under the influence of the dead breath of these strong men for many years, has already changed the aura of the stone forest, becoming dull and no longer vibrant.

"Look over there."

Behind him, a young man dressed in white pointed to his left and said.

Looking in the direction of the young man in white, everyone found that there was a heavy stone gate over there.

The stone door had long since opened, and the light was dim, and the depths were even darker, like an ancient beast opening its bloody mouth, lurking here, waiting for its prey to come to the door.

There is a stone pillar on both sides of the stone gate that is three zhang high, under the erosion of the years, the stone pillar is no longer smooth, but there is a sense of historical precipitation.

Yuan Xi found that he had found the entrance, and immediately took steps towards the stone gate, and the rest of the people were not far behind when they saw this.

"It looks scary."

Coming to the stone gate, the purple-clothed young man opened his eyes wide, trying to see the inside of the stone gate, although he said terrible in his mouth, the expression on his face was obviously suppressed with excitement.

"I wonder how many seniors are still alive inside?" The young man in white glanced at the young man in purple, and then turned his head inside the stone gate and said curiously.

"I don't know, but there must be quite a few, Elder Tianyao also went in the retreat two years ago."

In the crowd, a teenager shook his head and quickly told a secret.

"Elder Tianyao also went in?"

Everyone was shocked, Elder Tianyao was a big man in the Xuantian Sect, his combat power was unparalleled, and he was once an invincible opponent of all kinds of geniuses in the same period in the Dongzhou Holy Domain, subduing many strong sects, but now he is in the middle of the sea, and the former powerhouses are now about to enter the footsteps of the sunset?

"Didn't you say that Elder Tianyao still had a lifespan of hundreds of years? How to ......"

Everyone glanced at each other, their faces full of puzzlement, and immediately looked at Yuan Xi.

Because Elder Tianyao is Yuan Xi's elder brother and Yuan Chen's master.

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly realized that Yuan Chen's disappearance may have dealt a blow to this strong man, resulting in a serious loss of qi and blood, and now he has to retreat in advance.

"Be cautious, there must be a lot of seniors in it, if you touch their brows, let alone inheritance, you may even lose your life at that time."

The young man in purple watched the topic they were talking about get more and more deviated, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly reminded in a low voice.

When everyone heard this, they immediately stopped talking.

Yuan Xi, who was not far away, didn't care about their discussions, except for becoming stronger, the rest of the things didn't affect her mood at all, she said goodbye to everyone, and then walked towards the stone gate alone.

Looking at the shadow that disappeared into the stone gate, the purple-clothed young man raised his eyes and glanced at everyone, and said, "Let's go in too, good luck to everyone." ”

Although there are many inheritances in the Tomb Abyss, not all the disciples who come in can obtain the inheritance, and it is not impossible to get nothing if they are unlucky.

Entering the stone gate, the light here is dim and the view is blocked, but you can still vaguely see that this is a temple, and there are several stone entrances around the hall.

When you come to the depths of the hall, there is a plaque hanging above your head, on which the word "Tianyuan" is inscribed.

Yuan Xi didn't wait for the others, looked at these stone paths a few times, and finally chose the one on the far right.

Before entering, she had heard the seniors of the sect say that after entering the hall, she could choose any path.

Walking into the stone path, the light is not as dim as expected, and there are lamps made of unknown materials on both sides of the stone path that shimmer, providing light to the stone path.

After a while, Yuan Xi found a stone gate in front of him.

The stone door is closed, it is covered with prohibitions, around the stone gate, there is no forbidden guard, it has long been mottled under the corrosion of the years, looking at the year, this stone room has existed for a long time, and the soul stone placed in the center of the stone gate has long been extinguished, which also shows that the predecessors of the retreat inside have failed.

Yuan Xi took out the spirit jade that the sect had given him, and lightly touched the soul stone that had long been extinguished, and suddenly a hoarse voice of vicissitudes of life came into Yuan Xi's mind.

"I am Dingshan, I cultivated in the soul condensation realm before my death, although the realm of the old decay is not high, but I have devoted my life to the research and arrangement of the prohibition, the peak of the forbidden art, you are willing to accept my assessment, let my forbidden art carry forward again."

After listening to the transmission in his mind, Yuan Xi bowed lightly to the stone gate, then put away the spirit jade, and turned around to leave the stone gate.

The forbidden inheritance is not the gentleness she wants.

In Yuan Xi's opinion, as long as his strength is strong enough, he can also break the strong prohibition.

At the same time, she also vaguely understood that this stone chamber was close to the entrance and had existed for so long, why had no one received the inheritance of this predecessor so far?

Because the forbidden way also requires talent, if there is no talent, it may be difficult to master the way of cultivation for a lifetime, and now, it is the world way that respects strength, and the forbidden art is not the mainstream, so there are very few people who choose to major in the forbidden way.

Yuan Xi continued to walk along the stone path, and along the way she found five more stone rooms, all of which were closed, and the soul stones on three of the stone doors disappeared, but the prohibition still existed, which means that the inheritance has been obtained, and the predecessors who live in it can rest forever.

Although one of the other two stone chambers is closed, there is no prohibition on the stone door, which means that the predecessors who used to retreat here have already left the gate, and this stone room is naturally abandoned without the prohibition and protection.

The soul stone of the other stone gate was extinguished, but the soul stone still existed, and the inheritance was not obtained.

Yuan Xi took out the spirit jade and touched it against the soul stone, and suddenly a comfortable-sounding voice echoed in his mind.

"You can call me the God of Food, and in my opinion, there is nothing edible in the world except for the same kind."
