Chapter 571: Latent Shadow Abyss
Translator: jinzeffect
“Let give an introduction, this is Chu Wu, Red Rainbow Sect’s emperor-class disciple and a 2-star general. He is one of the top five generals of the northern Red Moon Empire.”
Lin Shou stood up and introduced Chu Wu to Li Fuchen and the others.
For this trip to the Latent Shadow Abyss, Chu Wu was the most important factor.
The others might not know of the strength of the top five generals in the north, but Lin Shou knew very clearly.
The number of northern 2-star generals were at least 80 if not 100. To beco the top five generals among so many individuals was obvious to prove Chu Wu’s strength. He was probably able to kill weaker low-level Primary Sea Realm monarchs.
“You are Chu Wu? Let’s spar when we have the chance.” Xiong Dao grinned.
Chu Wu said, “I’m afraid that I cannot control my strength and kill you.”
“3-star generals might not be able to kill .” Xiong Dao raised his brows and said confidently.
Lin Shou introduced the four others, “Chu Wu, they are Xiong Dao, Qiao Yu, Leng Xue, and Li Fuchen...”
Chu Wu nodded indifferently and didn’t say anything.
“Since everyone is here, then let’s depart!”
Lin Shou waved his hand and a large shop that was over a dozen ters in size had appeared in the sky. The ship had an array pagoda and it was emitting a murderous qi that was comparable with Primary Sea Realm monarchs. Even the air in the core garden had beco chilly.
Everyone understood in a single glance that this was a class 7 low-tier, small-sized battleship.
The construction cost of a class 7 battleship was extrely expensive. The construction cost of a class 7 low-tier, small-sized battleship would be at least 5 million mid-grade spirit stones and when operating the battleship, mid-grade spirit stones were also required.
When looking at this class 7 low-tier, small-sized battleship, even Chu Wu couldn’t help but squint his eyes.
The County Young Lord didn’t have his status for show. Even though his strength wasn’t formidable, with the aid from his artifacts, he was able to suppress weaker low-level monarchs.
After boarding the battleship, Lin Shou used his thoughts to turn the battleship into a stream of light and fly in the sky.
The class 7 low-tier battleship was very fast and wasn’t slower than a regular low-level monarch. After one month, everyone arrived at a large canyon.
It was an imnsely huge canyon and it was at least 10,000 miles long. The width was up to a few hundred miles and it had imasurable depth.
According to what Lin Shou said, this canyon was actually a crevice that was opened up by a great battle between saints. There were plenty of such crevices and there were even bigger ones.
“The Latent Shadow Abyss is inside this crevice. There are basically many levels of Latent Shadow Abyss in each of the crevices and this Latent Shadow Abyss is of a rather low grade. The laws are more ‘accommodating’ to Battle Spirit Realm, but if the Battle Spirit Realm master’s strength is’t at the 1-star general level, it would result in almost certain death. Only 2-star generals had the ability to protect themselves.”
The crevice was imasurably deep and when one looked into it, the darkness felt as though it was going to swallow the spirit soul.
The crevice had plenty of smaller crevices and those smaller crevices were the various entrances to the Latent Shadow Abyss.
Lin Shou spoke and controlled the battleship to fly into a smaller crevice that was closer to the left.
The small crevice looked rather small, but as the battleship got nearer, Li Fuchen realized that the crevice was several miles in length and over one mile in height.
“There are so many people?” Qiao Yu frowned after scanning with his spiritual awareness.
Inside the small crevice, there were buildings, restaurants, teahouses, inns, and all sorts of shops. It was just like a gathering place for humans and the people inside this place were all Battle Spirit Realm masters. They numbered at least 8000 if not 10,000.
Lin Shou explained, “The Latent Shadow Abyss might be extrely dangerous, but there are many who are willing to risk their lives. After all, as long as one could find one high-grade spirit stone, they would be able to live easy for half their life.”
Li Fuchen nodded. To seek riches in danger was a very common thing.
Furthermore, the cultivation of martial dao was supposed to be undaunted by perils.
When the battleship landed, Lin Shou stored it.
The Latent Shadow Abyss had chaotic laws and the larger the commotion, the higher the chance of attracting danger. Therefore, unless it was crucial, it was best not to utilize the battleship.
After all, the battleship was too big and it would cause too much commotion to fly in it.
In the middle of the buildings, there were several teleportation platforms and each of them were busy operating. There were people leaving or arriving through the teleportation platforms.
Lin Shou said, “The teleportation arrays here are connected to the nearby cities. The Latent Shadow Abyss has chaotic laws and the further you teleport, the easier it is for accidents to happen. Therefore, it is only for short distance teleportation.”
In fact, even if the laws of the Latent Shadow Abyss weren’t chaotic, it still wasn’t possible to connect to 660 cities in the Red Moon Empire.
A higher continent class would an a higher cost when constructing a teleportation array. There were so important materials that were basically nowhere to be found, especially the teleportation array’s core material, the spatial crystal.
The foreign monarch-class sects had to use the resources of an entire continent to construct a connecting teleportation array to the Emperor Sky Continent. The Red Moon Empire might be wealthy, but it was still inferior to so individuals and so factions. It was impossible to use the entire empire’s resources to make a teleportation array that was a higher grade than the foreign monarch-class sects. The amount of resources required were sothing that even an empire couldn’t afford. Furthermore, spatial crystals were rare in every continent, therefore, without any spatial crystals, it would be useless even if there were endless resources.
Thus, in the entire Red Moon Empire, only county cities, province cities and the imperial city were connected by teleportation arrays. The rest of the cities didn’t have teleportation arrays. If the Latent Shadow Abyss didn’t produce high-grade spirit stones, a teleportation array might not be constructed here. After all, each teleportation array required a spatial crystal and it wasn’t worth it.
“Hurry up and stop him. That person has two high-grade spirit stones!”
In the depths of a small crevice, there was a pitch-black whirlpool and all of a sudden, two bloodied figures rushed out from the whirlpool. The one at the back was yelling out to everyone.
“High-grade spirit stones?”
“Two of them?”
“Haha, I am going to get rich. As long as I can stop him and obtain one of the high-grade spirit stones, I don’t have to fret for the rest of my life.”
After hearing the statent, many of the Battle Spirit Realm masters had rushed out.
However, Li Fuchen realized that these people couldn’t fly and could only run. Furthermore, they were all trying to get to close range and didn’t attack from a distance.
Lin Shou explained, “This place might only be the entrance of the Latent Shadow Abyss, but the chaotic laws are leaking out. No flight or long-range attacks are possible in this place. If a Primary Sea Real monarch cos here, it will cause the laws to beco more chaotic and form all sorts of crises. As such, many of the advantages could be used and there wasn’t a need to fear the threats of a Primary Sea Realm monarch.”
When Lin Shou was speaking, that figure that was being surrounded had suddenly brought out a glowing gem and crushed it. There was a burst of dazzling radiance and within the range of a few hundred ters, it wasn’t even possible to see five fingers. At this mont, a figure rushed to the teleportation platform and tossed out a mid-grade spirit stone before teleporting out of this place.
“Damn it.”
No one was able to stop that person and everything was very disappointed with the outco.
Two pieces of high-grade spirit stones were the sa as 20,000 mid-grade spirit stones. Furthermore, this was the market price and if brought onto the auction, a single high-grade spirit stone could be sold for 15,000 or 20,000 mid-grade spirit stones easily.
Just as everyone was feeling disappointed, another person walked out of the whirlpool.
“Stop him, that person might have high-grade spirit stones too.”
Anyone who erged from the Latent Shadow Abyss were everyone’s targets.
Pfff Pfff Pfff...
However, everyone underestimated this person’s strength.
This person was able to erge from the Latent Shadow Abyss unscathed and was extrely formidable. According to Li Fuchen’s estimation, this person was formidable even among the 1-star generals. That person basically used one move to deal with each individual. In just a few breaths, over ten Battle Spirit Realm masters were killed.
After detecting the presence of Li Fuchen and his group, the person looked rather apprehensive and quickly left through the teleportation array.
“Co, let’s go in too!”
One or two high-grade spirit stones weren’t valuable enough in Lin Shou’s eyes. He required much more high-grade spirit stones.
Led by Lin Shou, the group of six individuals entered the pitch-black whirlpool.
...
It was a dusky and strange world.
The sky was tangled with shadows and surrounding mountain peaks were like giant shadows that were wiggling and transforming. Even the grass and trees on the ground were like slender shadows.
When stepping on the ground, the six of them didn’t feel like they were stepping on sothing solid.
Lin Shou said, “According to the speculation, when the two saints battled, one of the saints was a master in the shadow dao laws. It is why the shadow dao laws are very powerful in the Latent Shadow Abyss and are intertwined with other laws, creating a weird disorder.”
Swish!
When Lin Shou finished talking, the small stalk of shadow grass suddenly shot at Li Fuchen.
While sword intent was contained in the fingers, Li Fuchen pinched the shadow grass.
“Mm?”
When attacked by the sword intent, the shadow grass turned scattered.
“Inside the Latent Shadow Abyss, there are plenty of things that don’t have an actual body. They are all ford by the laws.” Lin Shou spoke while staying calm.
“I see.” Li Fuchen nodded.
Roar! Roar!
The Latent Shadow Abyss was massive but Li Fuchen and the group had only walked a small segnt of road, before they heard an abnormal roar.
This roar didn’t sound like a demonic beast nor a demon. It sounded like a roar from a human but it was filled with chaos and brutality.
“Be careful, it seems like a berserk corpse.” Lin Shou’s eyes turned serious.
Soon enough, the roars got closer.
‘It isn’t far from us...’
Li Fuchen scanned with his spiritual awareness. This place didn’t allow the spiritual awareness to scan far away, but Li Fuchen’s exceptional spiritual awareness allowed for a considerable range.
His spiritual awareness could sense an entirely black humanoid monster with iron skin that was running over.
In just a few breaths, the humanoid monster arrived in front of everyone.
“Let do it.”
Qiao Yu kept his iron fan and drew a silver sword that was glittering with frosty light. He then slashed at the humanoid monster.
Clang!
Sparks burst out and the humanoid monster was unhard. It was fortunate that the humanoid monster didn’t have powerful strength and was sent flying by the slash.
“Such tough defense.” Qian Yu looked unpleasant.
Lin Shou said, “The berserk corpse is ford from the corpse of the martial artist. It is infected by an abnormal law, making the physical body extrely durable and it is very difficult to kill. Its strength isn’t especially powerful though. Of course, there are extrely powerful berserk corpses in the deeper parts of the Latent Shadow Abyss, that are superior to 2-star generals.”
“It is rely a berserk corpse.”
Xiong Dao chased over and smashed his rod on the berserk corpse’s head.
Crush!
The berserk corpse’s head had broken open and it collapsed on the ground lifelessly.
“It isn’t that tough.”
Xiong Dao might be speaking like that, but he was silently rubbing his right arm. The recoil from his rod had numbed his right arm and it made him feel a little afraid.
