So.
"She is her, yet not her..."
This reading question is too difficult, and one mustn't act rashly.
——What is the truth?
"Pei Pei, set up the Array, we still need so privacy space."
"Yes, Young Master!"
Pei Pei took out the Array Plate and skillfully set up the Array.
Before long.
An Aurora erged from the Array Plate and quickly spread, enveloping the entire courtyard.
"Can this block prying eyes?" Shen Ye asked.
"Of course, any spying will be imdiately detected. The Array also has a defensive effect, isolating general attacks," Pei Pei said.
"Fantastic," Shen Ye remarked.
A streak of firelight swept over the courtyard wall, rushed into the courtyard, and landed in front of Shen Ye.
"..munication Talismans can, of course, co in," Pei Pei added.
Shen Ye released his spiritual power and lightly tapped the Communication Talisman.
The Communication Talisman imdiately emitted a voice:
"Disciples who receive this ssage, gather imdiately at the Demon Abyss frontline encampnt!"
After listening, Shen Ye pondered, "Pei Pei, what is the Demon Abyss?"
"You don't know? Oh, right, you are a new disciple——"
Pei Pei explained:
"Legend has it that many years ago, the legendary Immortal Mountain Penglai fell from the high universe, causing a Positive impact in our layer of the universe."
"The Penglai Immortal Mountain shattered instantly, turning into countless specks of dust, never to exist again."
"The Demon Abyss is the bottomless pit left by that impact."
"But why is it called the Demon Abyss?" Shen Ye questioned.
"I knew you would ask that——"
Pei Pei quickly continued:
"It is said that Penglai Immortal Mountain once withstood a great calamity between heaven and earth, and was supposed to continue existing, but it was entangled by unknown terrifying monsters, leading to its complete destruction. Only wreckage remained, piercing through multiple universes before crashing downward."
"Inside the bottomless pit created by that impact, there are not only remnants of the immortal mountain, but also various terrifying monsters."
"Thus it was nad the Demon Abyss."
"——If you fly westward for a while, you will see the encampnt."
As the two spoke, another Communication Talisman flew in.
A voice sounded from the Talisman:
"Co quickly, do not delay!"
The tone had beco stern.
Shen Ye stood up, gathered his belongings, and walked outside.
"Young Master, do you want to follow?"
Pei Pei asked.
"No, you've been busy for a while just now. Rest for now; I will return once I'm done," Shen Ye said.
"Young Master is so kind," Pei Pei sweetly smiled.
A few minutes later.
Outside the town.
On the plains in the west.
Shen Ye arrived at the Demon Abyss frontline encampnt.
A few hundred ters in front of the camp, the ground looked as if it had been neatly sliced away, leaving a chasm too deep to see the bottom.
In front of the cliff, Cultivators from the Supre Tao Palace already filled the area.
As soon as Shen Ye arrived, soone ca up to check his Token and then muttered softly:
"Only at the Seventh Layer of the Law Domain..."
The others quickly withdrew their gazes.
Shen Ye didn't mind and stood at the edge of the crowd, silently observing the situation.
Not much later.
In the center of the field.
A middle-aged man in a black Taoist robe began to speak:
"The Great Elder entered the Demon Abyss to investigate unusual activities and has not returned."
"We are now going to assign search missions."
"Those above the Eighteenth Layer of the Magical Realm, follow ."
"Disciples of the twelfth to seventeenth layers, operate in the shallow areas of the Demon Abyss, searching for any suspicious information."
"Disciples below the twelfth layer, guard the camp and relay ssages."
"Action!"
The crowd swiftly divided into three groups.
The first group followed the man in black robes, leaping high and turning into streams of light, plumting into the black abyss below the cliff.
After they left, the second group of Cultivators began flying towards the Demon Abyss.
They were not in a hurry, carefully observing the cliffs and the Cultivators entering and exiting the Demon Abyss, hoping to uncover clues.
The third group of Cultivators looked quite young.
They retreated back to the camp and began setting up Arrays, traps, releasing War Pets, donning Battle Armor, and making all sorts of preparations.
Although the atmosphere was grave and somber as the first two groups of Cultivators acted,
once they left, the young Cultivators began to relax.
——Guarding the camp was the simplest task in the entire mission.
The young Cultivators were highly efficient.
Soon.
Defense, vigilance, and guard duties were all handled.
——And then there was nothing to do.
"Hey!"
Soone called out.
Shen Ye looked over and saw several young Disciples waving at him.
"Fellow Senior Brothers, what's up?"
Shen Ye approached and asked.
A chubby Cultivator pointed to an Array Plate not far away and said, "The Arrays will handle the alert and search, co and join us for a bite."
Shen Ye touched his stomach, realizing he hadn't really eaten anything for An Entire Day, and happily clasped his hands in thanks:
"Thank you for your care, Senior Brothers."
He walked over and sat next to the chubby Cultivator.
The others, seeing he was young and polite, their impressions of him improved slightly.
A tall and thin Cultivator stood up, holding a gourd, and extended it towards Shen Ye.
"This is the Fasting Pill with a fresh floral fragrance that I managed to obtain with great effort. It has a faint scent of orchids, here, have a few."
Several Elixirs popped out of the gourd and landed in Shen Ye's hand.
Curious, Shen Ye pinched the Elixir and looked at the other Cultivators around him, who were spearing Fasting Pills on skewers and roasting them over the fire.
The chubby Cultivator expertly sprinkled seasoning over them.
The Cultivator's version of grilled skewers.
Beautiful.
"The Great Elder probably found so treasure again, and so he forgot the ti to return," a Cultivator said.
"Isn't that so? Last ti he discovered a gold mine, the Great Elder stayed below for two days and two nights, not returning until he had mined all the ore," another Cultivator added.
