Chapter 208: Legend of the Abyss
No one had any doubts. Only Karuman had vaguely guessed that something was amiss, but he did not ask.
As for the outside world, the Nicholas family had not appeared much recently. They did not know what was going on in the Nicholas family.
No one would suspect anything.
People also talked about how Ron had offended the Black Forest faction and killed their Young Master and many of their experts.
However, only a few people in the Nicholas family knew the reason for this.
It turned out that once, Ron had followed the Old Ancestor’s order to find the family clansmen, but he had been targeted by the Young Master of the Black Forest faction who had taken a fancy to the magical weapon he had with him.
As a result, Ron dealt with the provocation.
The Dark Night Canyon was one of the four most dangerous places in the Norman Kingdom. It was ranked first among the four most dangerous places.
The Dark Night Canyon was located at the western border of the Norman Kingdom. It could also be said to be the border of the Norman Kingdom.
On the other side of the Dark Night Canyon was the Vanstone country’s Jedi Kingdom which was even more powerful than the Norman Kingdom.
The Jedi Kingdom was located in the center of the bizarre continent. It was vast and rich, making it the most powerful cultivation kingdom on the bizarre continent.
Moreover, the empire that ruled the Jedi Kingdom was the most powerful in the country. It was unlike the other sunset kingdoms, where the people of the ruling empire were restrained by the powerful sects in the country like the Norman Kingdom.
The royal family of the Jedi Kingdom had many Great Archmagi. It was even rumored that their founding emperor had not actually died but had long reached the level of a Divine Mage, transcending beyond the world.
And in this country, there were countless experts of the Innate Realm and the Divine Power Realm.
In fact, the Innate Realm and the Divine Power Realm were only level-11 and the realm of a level-12 Great Mage. People divided them like this because of some origins.
One could only reach the Mage realm after breaking through from the Physical Body Realm.
After reaching level-10 of Great Mage, it was very difficult to level up again. Many people were stuck at this stage. Therefore, in order to better classify the levels, people divided two levels of the Great Mage, level-11 and level-12, as the Innate Realm and the Divine Power Realm.
In the Jedi Kingdom, the realm of the Great Archmage was also called the Longevity Realm, and the Divine Mage was called the Immortal Realm. However, these were only the titles for a small corner of the land. The continent was still divided by the realms of magical power.
Over the years, the Jedi Kingdom had been expanding outward, and almost every hundred years, it would annex nearby countries.
A large part of the reason why the Norman Kingdom, which was adjacent to the Jedi Kingdom, had not been attacked was because of the existence of the natural barrier, the Dark Night Canyon.
The Dark Night Canyon was tens of thousands kilometers long, separating the two countries completely. To the west, they directly reached the region of the endless sea, and to the east, they connected to the desolate snow region.
It was like a huge scar that had torn a shocking wound in the bizarre continent.
The Dark Night Canyon was more than hundreds of thousand kilometers in width. Although there were varying depths, the shallowest place was not less than 100,000 feet.
The deepest part was even called the Endless Abyss. No one had ever successfully measured its depth.
The reason why the Dark Night Canyon was labeled as Eternal Night was because the canyon was filled with endless special black fog. Once one entered the canyon, one would not be able to see the sunlight anymore, as if one would forever be in the dark.
It was rumored that the black fog was an extremely dense and sinister aura. If an ordinary person were to enter it, he would quickly be sucked dry by the sinister aura and die.
Hence, there were also rumors that the entire Dark Night Canyon was an incomparably large land where evil was concentrated. There were even rumors that the Endless Abyss in the canyon was the passageway to the Nine Netherworld Palace.
It was just a legend. Not many people would take it seriously, let alone verify it.
However, the sinister aura in the Dark Night Canyon was real. It was precisely because of this that no one dared to enter this place. It was a holy land for evil creatures.
For example, monsters.
In the Dark Night Canyon, there were a large number of monsters. There were even rumors that more than half of the monsters in the entire bizarre continent were here.
However, those monsters rarely appeared because in the Dark Night Canyon, they could only be considered outsiders who lived here. The countless ferocious and evil magical beasts in the canyon were the true rulers of this place.
This was not only one of the four most dangerous places in the Norman Kingdom, but also one of the most dangerous places in the entire bizarre continent.
Due to these special reasons, the Dark Night Canyon had become a terrifying place that even warriors of the Longevity Realm would not readily enter. Unless it was for some special reason, almost no one would come here.
Therefore, no one would have thought that the headquarters of the Mu Guang Pavilion notorious in the Norman Kingdom was hidden in the Dark Night Canyon.
Back when Romo had learned this secret from Chief Wu, he was also very shocked. Later, he confirmed it completely with a soul search before believing it to be true.
It was no wonder that no one had been able to find the headquarters of the Mu Guang Pavilion for thousands of years. No one had expected it to be in such an impossible place.
When Ron learned of this, he also could not believe it. However, he believed in the Old Ancestor, so he did not hesitate or even fear to go to such a dangerous place.
There was no other reason for his trust other than the presence of the Old Ancestor.
“Is this the Dark Night Canyon?” Ron stood on a tall mountain and looked at a canyon in the distance that stretched endlessly to the left and right. He could not help being shocked that the other side of the deep abyss could not even be seen.
He had set off from Winterfrost. Although he did not take the flying ferry, it still saved him the trouble of detouring. He flew directly toward his destination. With the speed he had after his cultivation base had greatly increased, he traveled day and night and arrived here in four days.
This was the western border of the Norman Kingdom. Ahead was the Dark Night Canyon.
However, Ron was not in a hurry to enter the canyon. Instead, he rested on the mountain for a day and recovered to his peak condition before he set off again.
His figure streaked across the sky like a meteor and plunged into the Dark Night Canyon without hesitation. The moment he entered the Dark Night Canyon, Ron felt a darkness above his head.
At this moment, it was already noon, and the sun was high in the sky. At this moment, it was as if night had suddenly turned into night. Not only had the sunlight disappeared, even the temperature had instantly dropped to almost below zero degrees. Everything that could be seen was a strange black fog.
It was different from the abnormal black fog he had seen in the Blue Jade Mystic Realm. It was colder and more dangerous.
The destructive hurricane in the Calamity Mountain Range was very dangerous, but the probability of it appearing was not high. There was no chance to encounter it, but the sinister black fog in the Dark Night Canyon was everywhere.
If the black fog came into contact with his body, the holy aura would be rapidly sucked away. An ordinary person would die instantly upon contact. The true essence of the Innate Realm could only barely withstand it.
Only when one had reached the Divine Power Realm and had the energy to protect his body would he be able to withstand the invasion of the black fog with ease. However, maintaining the energy to protect his body was not an easy task. The longer he stayed, the more dangerous it would be.
Moreover, the deeper into the canyon, the more powerful the black fog became, and the faster was the consumption of the energy needed for protection.
And the threat of the sinister black fog was only the most basic threat in the Dark Night Canyon. The greater danger were the living creatures that resembled dead creatures outside the natural environment.
Just as Ron was sizing up the situation in the Dark Night Canyon and getting used to the strange black fog around him, he heard an ear-piercing, strange sound. The black fog beside him suddenly rolled, and then a strange magical beast, which looked like a giant multi-legged insect but had large, thin wings, broke through the fog and pounced on Ron with its mouth full of sharp teeth.
Ron, on the other hand, looked as calm as ever. He still maintained an expression of deep thought. With a casual wave of his hand, the Dragon Flame Flying Sword shot out instantly. With a burst of sword light, it instantly sliced the overbearing, large insect into two.
However, soon after, ear-piercing beast roars could be heard from all directions. It was as if it had fallen into a swarm of bees, and the black fog around it started to surge crazily.
Then, wave after wave of sinister and violent evil aura appeared, covering the sky and covering the earth as it enveloped Ron.
