Chapter 459: Chapter 465: Death Relics! Terrible Red Light! (One More)

Having entered deep into the Mobei Abyss, Yang Zhen suddenly heard a series of exclaims around him. He hurriedly looked around, only to be startled himself.

“Damn, what the hell is this place, hell?”

The Mobei Abyss was profoundly deep. All of the people were so intent on entering before the Death Zy returned that they hadn’t even noticed how long they’d been descending.

Now that they were inside the Mobei Abyss and could clearly see the surrounding environment, everyone had a chill run down their spines.

The atmosphere was oppressively silent and gloomy. Black fog seemed to endlessly churn and roar in the air, intermittently pierced by purple lightning that flew up and down. The waves of energy were immense, terrifying beyond belief.

It seemed like there was no life around, only dull, dark red stones. It was as if they’d been soaked in fresh blood for ten thousand years, releasing an unbearably putrid smell.

Particularly on the ground, between the strange and rugged stones, the largest one reached thousands of feet into the sky. Its red color was so intense that it seemed to bleed, with a lot of red liquid flowing down from it.

On the ground, there were puddles of something akin to magma bubbling up. Clouds of black fog rose from these puddles.

This was a self-contained world, and everywhere there was an atmosphere reminiscent of hell.

“What… what kind of place is this!”

Peak Master Mo was visibly shocked, his eyes twinkling with uncertainty. Who could have imagined that under the frigid Northern Island, there existed such a terrifying place, separated from the world by the limitless Death Zy of the Mobei Abyss.

If they hadn’t ventured here this time, no one would have known about this eerie world beneath the Mobei Abyss.

Far away, the ruins of an endlessly wide site were in utter disrepair. Broken walls and ruins were everywhere, and the ancient buildings gave off a profound sense of mystery, causing everyone to be shocked at the sight.

Countless people, upon seeing this, rushed out of their flying boats in a frenzy to reach the ruins. However much the others screamed at them to stop, no one did. They were all like madmen.

Boom——!

With a rumble, Saint Lin, encased in his steel armor, rushed into the Mobei Abyss. His whole body trembled as he stared fiercely at Yang Zhen on the Tianfeng, then rapidly charged towards the ruins.

“It’s a relic from the Ascension Era, it’s a relic from the Ascension Era!”

Someone exclaimed in shock. Yang Zhen could hear the excitement and thrill in his voice.

A relic from the Ascension Era, preserved in such integrity and hidden within the Mobei Abyss. Clearly, no one had entered here since the era had come to an end.

In such a case, all the inheritances in the ruins must still be there, and not just one.

The Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and numerous cultivation methods and martial skills left from the great war, who knows how many there could be?

How terrifying a power must it have been to own such a horrific relic?

Yang Zhen had never imagined that a single power could have such an enormous relic site. It was likely bigger than even a large city on the Blue Planet.

Everyone was dashing madly towards the ruins. It was clear that whoever first entered the relics could potentially acquire the best inheritance and the most precious Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.

At this time, the tens of thousands of practitioners were indiscriminate of their sects—even disciples from the same sect were separated. Everyone around them was seen as a competitor.

Aboard the Tianfeng, Cheap Cat drew in a sharp breath, looking at the terrifying ruins with a slightly odd look on his face, his eyes shimmering with disbelief.

Yang Zhen took one look at the damn cat, and immediately decided not to charge ahead. Damn it, if there were no danger, that damned cat would probably outrun everyone. Now the scoundrel looked stupefied, as if remembering something, or getting stuck in a memory. It was definitely bad news.

Sure enough, Elder Qian’s voice suddenly echoed. It was as loud as a bell tolling, deafening, and it roared like a sky-shaking bellow.

“Everyone, stop!”

Rumble! Rumble!

Like thunder, his voice echoed across the sky. Yang Zhen was sure that even Lin, the Saint leading the charge, could hear Elder Qian’s words very clearly. He hadn’t gone deaf, thanks to the sound proofing effects of his steel armor.

Yet no one heeded Elder Qian’s words. Even Lin, the Saint, with a loud bang, once again accelerated at full speed. Although he was the last one to enter, he was now leading the pack.

The others, seeing this, swore angrily at Lin, the Saint, and sped up further.

Those riding flying swords, lying on flying daggers, hanging on sticks, and all sorts of other magical vehicles, were all racing frantically towards the ruins.

Seeing Lin, the Saint, take the lead and instantly reach the ruins, Yang Zhen’s eyes bulged almost out of their sockets. He stared intently at Lin, not even blinking. If there was danger, then everyone was right to wait. But if there wasn’t, with Yang Zhen’s current speed, plus the steel armor 1.0 version, he’d catch up with everyone in just one or two breaths, maybe even outpace Lin.

All the practitioners who remained behind were dumbfounded, watching as Lin, the Saint laughed uproariously before crashing into the ruins in his steel armor.

The next moment, all of their faces changed drastically, especially the Second Elder of Ke Clan. He was running very fast, following right behind Lin. He was part of the first group arriving at the ruins.

The Second Elder suddenly roared, “Saint, watch out!”

Boom!

A thunderous rumble echoed, and a blood-red light erupted from where Lin was. A heavenly light descended so quickly that no one could see from where this red beam originated.

By the time everyone saw the red light, Lin was already screaming in agony.

Boom!

The red light hit him, and a massive tremors went through Lin’s body. A hysterical scream came from him. His entire left arm, including the steel armor, was flung away violently. Blood spurted out, splashing all over the Second Elder’s face as he rushed forward.

Everyone was scared stiff and tried to stop, but it was easy to start running and not so simple to stop.

They were like moths drawn to a flame, rushing towards the ruins despite trying to turn away. This created a strange sight.

Countless people, their rear ends in the air, reverse-charged into the ruins, but a flash of red light cut through the air. Those who lost arms and legs were the lucky ones; a number of practitioners were pierced through their bodies by the red light. Unluckily, some had it going straight through their heads. Instantly killed, they collapsed with a thud, bounding a couple of times towards the ruins before lying still.

Rumble! Rumble!

Intense vibrations echoed. It was as if the earth was shaking and the mountains rocking, the air around them turning ominously violent. Waves of red energy erupted from around the ruins, forming a colossal light screen, enveloping the entire site.

“The Mountain Protection Array!”

Elder Qian screamed in horror, “After all these years, the Mountain Protection Array is still active. What…what on earth is this place?”

“Damn it!”

The damn cat suddenly screeched, looking at Yang Zhen with a strange expression, “Kid, I’m afraid we’ve come all this way for nothing!”
