Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

Compared to the Silver Moon Bay, the curve of the bay was much narrower. The cliff at the edge of the abyss was extremely steep, as if it had been cut by a knife.    

The rock walls are damp and have a dark moss distribution.    

As far as the eye could see, there were a few scattered caves on the stone wall. Those caves were pitch black and unfathomable.    

When the water from the abyss reached this area, it became even more dark and unfathomable. There were no ripples at the edge of the abyss; it was pitch black, making one's heart palpitate.    

"Young master, this is the Buried Soul Bay. This place is quite dangerous! " Little Yuan said.    

Chen Yu looked at the path he was walking and saw that after more than ten miles, the path became intermittent and difficult to walk forward. Many places had no place to go, and one had to rely on movement techniques to jump across.    

"You can stop here!" Chen Yu nodded and patted the Storage Bag. He took out a bunch of amethysts and threw them to Little Yuan.    

"Thank you, young master!" Little Yuan took over the purple crystal and plucked the Storage Bag from his body, saying: "Young master, this is for you!"    

"You keep it!" Chen Yu waved his hand. After pondering for a moment, he said: "I, Storage Bag do not have any suitable technique or martial skill for you. Sit down.    

Little Yuan was surprised for a moment, then immediately became overjoyed as he hurriedly said, "Thank you, young master. Thank you, young master. Little Yuan will never forget your kindness for the rest of his life!"    

Chen Yu smiled and waited for Little Yuan to sit down before he started to teach the first two stages of Profound Heaven Spell to Little Yuan.    

He had no choice but to admit that Little Yuan was indeed intelligent. After four hours, he had already finished eating all of the first two stages of Profound Heaven Spell.    

Chen Yu took out another purple crystal, casually carved it into the shape of a new moon, and threw it to Little Yuan, "If you can break through the Heavenly Astral Stage in three years, then take him to the Ruling Spirit Sect to find me!"    

Little Yuan's body trembled as he stood blankly on the spot.    

"Hmm?" Chen Yu was surprised.    

Taking the purple crystal from Chen Yu, Little Yuan kneeled on the ground and kowtowed three times. "Young Master, Little Yuan will never forget your kindness!"    

For someone as insignificant as Little Yuan, who was in the lowest level of the town, Chen Yu was giving him a chance to change his fate.    

Chen Yu didn't mind and said, "Let's go back!"    

"Young master, my name is Yuan Zhantian. I will definitely break through to the sect that belonged to the young master before Heavenly Astral Stage within three years!" Little Yuan clasped his hands together and fell to the ground, grateful.    

Chen Yu was slightly startled. He didn't expect that Little Yuan would have such a domineering name. He smiled and said, "Go, the one who will dictate your fate can only be you. Don't kneel to anyone other than your parents and teachers in the future!"    

"En!" Little Yuan nodded heavily before he turned around and left. Even then, he still kept looking back.    

Chen Yu retracted his gaze and continued to observe the Buried Soul Bay in front of him.    

Little Yuan was smart, and a little cunning. He also knew that going in and going out was proper etiquette, so Chen Yu didn't mind giving him a chance. This opportunity might have directly changed Little Yuan's life. To Little Yuan, it was extremely important.    

However, it was not enough for Chen Yu.    

After Little Yuan left, Chen Yu didn't stay any longer and continued moving forward.    

Very soon, after a dozen or so miles, the path under their feet became slippery, and there were also many places with no paths.    

However, this was not difficult for Chen Yu. Relying on the Wind Transformation Movement, Chen Yu's speed did not decrease at all.    

However, just as he leaped four to five zhang into the air and landed on a rock outcropping, a faint beam of spiritual light suddenly appeared four to five meters above his head.    

In the next moment, a sharp sword qi appeared and fiercely slashed down.    

The sharpness of the sword qi was equivalent to the attack of a late stage Spirit Accumulation Stage practitioner. However, the sword intent was vast and profound, faintly revealing a sharpness that could cut through all obstructions in the world.    

Chen Yu was also caught off guard, and before he could even stabilize himself, he was slashed down by the Sword Qi. He only had time to tilt his head to dodge and activate the Insensate Stone Spirit Armor's defense.    

The sword qi brushed past his face, leaving a trail of blood. The Insensate Stone Spirit Armor also dimmed.    

Chen Yu raised his head and watched as the sword energy slowly faded away. He felt his heart palpitate.    

Chen Yu rejoiced. The power of this sword mark was not very strong. If it was that strong and powerful sword mark, Chen Yu knew that even if he did not die, he could have been cut down into the abyss.    

No one was clear what was in the abyss, but in general, it was definitely much more dangerous than being in the abyss.    

"I was still too careless. Lonely Spirit Abyss being viewed as a dangerous place, there really is a reason!"    

With a thought, Chen Yu released the Spirit Connecting Vine in front of him and flew away. As a probe, he continued to move forward on the rock wall.    

In front of them was a corner. The Spirit Connecting Vine went around it, and suddenly, they heard an emotional fluctuation. They discovered that there was someone hiding behind the corner.    

Chen Yu frowned and summoned the Soul Devouring Sword Spirit with a raise of his hand, hiding it closely behind his back before going around it.    

Around the corner, the path ahead was a lot wider. On the cliff, it could be seen as a stone platform. At the place where the stone platform was leaning against the wall, three warriors were sitting close to the wall, looking vigilantly at Chen Yu.    

The Spirit Connecting Vine had discovered these three people first, and these three people had also seen the Spirit Connecting Vine.    

Among the three, there were two elders and a middle-aged man. Their auras were extremely deep and they had the strength of an early stage Profound Dark Stage.    

Both sides sized each other up, and a thin old man with white sideburns said: "This is Spiritual Soul, could it be that you are a Ruling Spirit Sect disciple?"    

Although it wasn't too strange for Chen Yu to be able to see through his background with a single gulp, he still felt a slight chill in his heart and said: "Yes, you are?"    

"We are ordinary martial artists!" The skinny old man pondered a bit and said, "My name is Duanmu Jing. These two are Feng Shaowen and Jian Daohong. What's your name, sir? "    

"Chen Yu!"    

"So it's Brother Chen!" Duanmu Jing said, "We were meditating over the sword seal at the Buried Soul Bay and searched for a legacy treasure. We found an ancient ruin and it is possible that there's a treasure hidden inside. I wonder if Brother Chen is interested? If you are interested, you can cooperate with the three of us! "    

Chen Yu was surprised to hear that. He looked at Duanmu Jing, but the latter had a sincere expression on his face.    

However, the human heart was dangerous and unpredictable. This kind of sincerity on the surface had no meaning at all.    

"Aren't there many people here?" Chen Yu asked, "Why did you invite me to cooperate?"    

"I won't hide the truth from Brother Chen, your Spiritual Soul can help us scout the way, it will be very useful!" Duanmu Jing said: "Moreover, your cultivation has not broken through the Profound Dark Stage, so we can be at ease. Otherwise, we really wouldn't dare to cooperate with a sect disciple like you! "    

Chen Yu didn't expect to be seen as a threat.    

"If there are any rewards, how are we going to split them?" Chen Yu asked.    

"The four of them will divide it equally!" Duanmu Jing, Feng Shaowen and Jian Daohong looked at each other and said.    

"Equally?" Chen Yu sneered in his heart. Generally speaking, those who get divided evenly will fall out in the end.    

However, Chen Yu was too lazy to think about it and nodded: "Ok!"    

Duanmu Jing was overjoyed, saying, "With Brother Chen's participation, we will be able to enter that relic like tigers adding wings. Brother Chen, wait a moment. Wait for Brother Feng to adjust his breathing and recover his strength. We just came out not too long ago, so it's a little too much! "    

Chen Yu nodded.    

Feng Xiao Wen took out the Medicine Pill and swallowed it, then sat down cross-legged and started cultivating.    

Meanwhile, Duanmu Jing walked over to Chen Yu and chatted with him in detail.    

It turned out that the relic Duanmu Jing was looking for was deep inside the rock wall. After entering through a hole only dozens of meters away from the platform, the cave was connected everywhere. In order to find the relic, they had to go deep, and they couldn't go the wrong way.    

That relic was a clue that Duanmu Jing and the others had obtained from a practitioner who had come here to explore the Lonely Spirit Abyss at a high price.    

That warrior once found that relic, but was unable to open the seal.    

Chen Yu wasn't too interested in the ruins that Duanmu Jing talked about, because the Buried Soul Bay was only the back mountain of the Myriad Dao Sect back then. Even if there were ruins, the possibility of there being a rare treasure wouldn't be too high.    

Moreover, ten thousand years later, in a place that wasn't considered too dangerous, the Buried Soul Bay had already been explored by countless people. It was hard to say if the remains were still there.    

Regarding Lonely Spirit Abyss, it was widely accepted that Myriad Dao Sect's inheritance as well as the majority of the treasures should have all sunk into the abyss, and a majority of them had already been destroyed or buried.    

Of course, since Duanmu Jing had invited him, Chen Yu didn't mind going in to take a look and see if they could meet someone from the Devil Sect.    

An hour later, the Howling Wind Beast had finished adjusting its condition. The four of them climbed up from the platform diagonally, jumping up and down until they arrived at the entrance of a cave.    

Entering the pitch black cave, Duanmu Jing said, "Brother Chen, for now, let us walk in front. Wait until we can't determine the route, then you can use the Spiritual Soul to scout ahead!"    

Pausing for a moment, Duanmu Jing continued: "We are very familiar with the way to start, but we still have to be very careful. There are people from the Devil Sect here, as well as martial practitioners from other common worlds or sects. We do not wish to cause conflict, but there is a chance that someone will attack us! "    

"Alright, I'll be careful!"    

Judging from Duanmu Jing's reminder, he indeed had the sincerity to cooperate. However, he couldn't rule out the possibility that he reminded Chen Yu to be cautious.    

Duanmu Jing led the way at the front, and the four of them continued forward.    

After walking for a while, a path appeared in front of them. Duanmu Jing was obviously familiar with the road, so he took the left path without any hesitation.    

The deeper they went, the more Chen Yu felt like the tunnel was going deeper.    

Within two hours, they had encountered many forks in the road. From Chen Yu's point of view, this place was indeed like a maze.    

This terrain was similar to the underground cave in Divine Meteorite Mountain Range, but it was clearly more cramped.    

Furthermore, Chen Yu felt that the Miasma was gradually becoming denser.    

"Be careful!" When they reached a certain place, Duanmu Jing suddenly slowed down and reminded them.    

Shua! Shua! Feng Xiao Wen and Jian Daohong activated their Spiritual Dipper.    

Suddenly, at a fork in the road, another ray of spiritual light appeared. A sword qi appeared and came slashing over.    

This was a sword imprint, and its strength was not weak. It had clearly reached the strength of the sword qi displayed by the Profound Dark Stage warriors, and the sword intent was gloomy, which was extremely difficult to deal with.    

Duanmu Jing and the other two attacked together, blocking the sword qi.    

Chen Yu's eyes were bloodshot. Looking at the sword mark, he felt that the sword intent contained in it was extremely profound.    

"That's enough, Brother Chen. Now it's your turn to lead the way!"    

Chen Yu followed the three into the forked path with the sword mark and said, "Alright!"    

After changing his position, Chen Yu released his Spirit Connecting Vine and continued moving forward.
