Chapter 1287 - Sacred Abyss Continent

Chapter 1287 - Sacred Abyss Continent

The Sacred Abyss Continent resided in the far west of the Great Thousand World.

From a certain degree, this wasn’t a continent but an evolved Lower Plaine that could link with the Great Thousand World and form an independent realm.

In ancient times, this Sacred Abyss Continent was one of the locations that hosted the decisive battle between the Great Thousand World and the Fiend Clans.

Thus, no one knew how many powerhouses fell in the Sacred Abyss Continent. Even the number of Heavenly Sovereigns could be counted on two hands. There were innumerable Divine Abilities, inheritances and even Saint Artifacts lost in it. Over the past few tens of thousands of years, there were those fortunate ones that obtained some inheritances, instantly turning from a nobody to a celebrity overnight...

Because of those past cases, there were also more people in the Great Thousand World that wanted to try their luck...

Although the Sacred Abyss Continent contained all sorts of encounters, the danger in it was also unimaginable, since the battle from ancient times had caused the space here to be unstable. There were all sorts of brutal environments, so if even a Perfected Earth Sovereign was careless, they might be annihilated.

Furthermore, there’s the most important fact. The Fiend Clans would also go into the Sacred Abyss Continent as well...

In ancient times, the Sacred Abyss Continent was initially dominated by the Fiend clans. Thus, the Fiend Clans naturally held a passage into the place, and their motive was similar to the Great Thousand World as well. They had many pinnacle powerhouses that fell there during ancient times, so they’re trying to search for those fallen powerhouses and obtain their inheritance to grow stronger.

Because of these reasons, it had caused the Sacred Abyss Continent to be the location linking the Great Thousand World and Fiend Clans together. The moment the two parties encountered one another in there, they would definitely go at it until one party perishes...

From a certain degree, the Sacred Abyss Continent was the front line of the Great Thousand World and Fiend Clans.

...

When Mu Chen’s party got to the Sacred Abyss Continent, two months had already passed. Facing this long journey, even Mu Chen was a little startled.

After all, they had depended on Celestial Chi Yan to make it here. Although they did not go through any teleportation array, it also saved them the effort of looking for one.

Naturally, only a Heavenly Sovereign like Celestial Chi Yan could travel at such a speed. If they were to head over by themselves, they would probably take a much longer time.

“This is the Sacred Abyss Continent?” Mu Chen stood on a desolate peak as he looked afar. It was all darkness that entered his sight, as if this region was being suppressed.

The Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth was also somewhat dull, it wasn’t as lively as it was in the other regions of the Great Thousand World.

Compared to the Great Thousand World, it was a few times harder for anyone to absorb Spiritual Energy.

There was crimson lightning that occasionally flickered and crackled across this land, containing extremely violent fluctuations that would even terrify a Heavenly Sovereign.

This continent seemed to be enveloped by violence, filed with danger at the same time.

“Long ago, this Sacred Abyss Continent was actually a cultivating treasure land, but it was later dominated by the Fiend Clans and was contaminated from the Evil Aura. Even if my Great Thousand World tried to cleanse it a few times, it’s still hard for this continent to be restored to its original state.” Celestial Chi Yan sighed.

Mu Chen and the rest also sighed. The Fiend Clans could be considered the mortal enemy of their Great Thousand World, since their methods were too domineering. Under the contamination of Evil Aura, even Spiritual Energy would be tainted, and as time passed, the Spiritual Energy cultivators of the Great Thousand World would probably go extinct.

“Senior, the Primordial Sacred Abyss is in this continent?” Mu Chen asked.

Celestial Chi Yan nodded his head. “This is merely the outer layer of the Sacred Abyss Continent, but the spatial law in the center of the continent has been shattered. So it’s enveloped by a storm of time and space. We have to wait for it to weaken a little before this old man can send you guys in.”

Even someone like Celestial Chi Yan’s expression turned grave when he spoke about the storm.

Mu Chen and the rest smacked their lips, since they had no idea about how powerful the storm was to make even a Heavenly Sovereign so fearful.

“Actually, the storm is still secondary. The main thing is there’s a probability that one might be sent to the territories of the Fiend Clans.” Celestial Chi Yan helplessly shook his head when he saw their expressions.

“This continent is the intersection between the Great Thousand World and the Fiend Clans. So even a Heavenly Sovereign would fall here, as it has been proven in the past.”

At this moment, Mu Chen and the rest knew why Celestial Chi Yan was so fearful. After all, even a powerful Heavenly Sovereign wouldn’t have a better outcome if they were sent to the Fiend Clan’s territory and faced the Monarchs of the other side.

“We will first go to the Sacred Abyss City, it is the largest city in the Sacred Abyss Continent.” Celestial Chi Yan waved his hand and Spiritual Energy enveloped Mu Chen’s group of four before they turned into a crimson beam and charged through the heavy layers of crimson lightning.

Although the Sacred Abyss Continent was filled with danger, as long as they did not encounter the storm of time and space, Celestial Chi Yan would still be able to charge through all obstacles with his strength.

Under Celestial Chi Yan’s lead, in just half an hour, Mu Chen and the rest gradually saw the outline of a massive city appearing in their view.

With the darkened heavens and earth, the city looked like a massive beast lying on the ground, emanating an indescribable pressure.

As they approached, Mu Chen realised that there was a massive barrier that enveloped the entire city that emanated a terrifying Spiritual Energy fluctuation.

“A Spiritual Array Ancestor’s Spiritual Array!” Mu Chen’s heart trembled as he looked at the barrier. Based on his current attainments as a Spiritual Array Scholar, he could tell that this was a Spiritual Array Ancestor’s Spiritual Array with just a glance.

Furthermore, this Spiritual Array definitely wasn’t weak, even amongst the Spiritual Array Ancestor level.

“This Spiritual Array was created by the Heavenly Array Oldman in ancient times. Haha, that Heavenly Ancient Oldman was a Saint Spiritual Array Ancestor, even amongst the Heavenly Sovereigns, he was amongst the top.”

“Even with my full force, it’s impossible for me to destroy it.” Celestial Chi Yan smiled.

“A Saint Spiritual Array Ancestor?!” Mu Chen’s group was shocked, especially him and Ling Xi. As Spiritual Array Masters themselves, they knew how terrifying the so-called “Saint Spiritual Array Ancestor” was.

Even for Spiritual Array Ancestor Realm experts, they were separated into Spirit, Immortal, and Saint. A Saint Spiritual Array Ancestor was an existence equivalent to a Saint Heavenly Sovereign.

That’s practically a pinnacle existence in the entire Great Thousand World.

“No wonder it felt impossible for me to deduce. If I forced my way, my heart would be fully exhausted.” Ling Xi sighed. As a High Rank Spiritual Array Scholar, she could probably deduce the flaw in ordinary Spiritual Arrays in a single glance. However, if she forced her way through the current Spiritual Array, she might suffer a counter-attack instead.

“The Sacred Abyss Continent is an intersection with the Fiend Clans. This Sacred Abyss City is used to monitor and intimidate, and naturally, protect as well.” Luo Li nodded her head as she explained.

“Let’s go.” Celestial Chi Yan nodded his head. He then swiftly brought the four of them into the massive city, entering the barrier that emanated a powerful fluctuation.

When they passed through the barrier, Mu Chen could clearly sense a profound ripple instantly scanning his body, and under that scan, any secrets that he possessed had instantly been revealed.

Mu Chen knew that this must be the scan of the Spiritual Array, so to prevent the Fiend Clans from spying on them.

When they landed in the city, Mu Chen and the rest realised that this city was unexpectedly flourished and bustling. The streets were fully populated with noise that soared into the clouds.

Furthermore, Mu Chen’s group had realised that more than half had emanated a powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation, stating that they have reached the Earth Sovereign Realm...

But he soon figured it out, how could anyone that dared to come here be weak?

Sweeping their gazes around, all of their eyes were directed to the centre of the city and saw a massive ancient stone tablet quietly standing there.

The stone tablet emanated a powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation with three crimson words on the peak of it, flicking with crimson luster and also emitting an eerily cold aura.

“The Demon Slayer Plaque!” There was also a row of golden words that emanated indescribable might.

“Set up by the Great Thousand Palace.”

“The Great Thousand Palace?” Mu Chen’s gaze flickered as he muttered, “To use the Great Thousand World as the name? What force is this? How domineering.”

Celestial Chi Yan revealed a strange smile as he briefly looked at the words “Great Thousand Palace”, before saying, “Of course they are domineering. That’s because, in the Great Thousand World, there is an existence that even surpasses the Ancient Clans...”

“The most powerful force in the Great Thousand World...”
