C753 The Abyss of Darkness

"Recently? Let me think about it." When Yu Shunnian heard Lee Zhuohua's question, he revealed a pondering expression.

Then, as if he had thought of something, his eyes lit up as he looked at Lee Zhuohua.

"There is a dark abyss in the north. This abyss used to be just a very deep valley, nothing unusual, but recently there have been rumors that the life around the dark abyss has begun to fade. Plants, birds, and animals seem to have all disappeared in that generation." Yu Shunnian looked at Lee Zhuohua and told him about his experience.

"Oh? Then does anyone know what happened to the Abyss of Darkness?" When Lee Zhuohua heard this strange news, his heart skipped a beat. He had a feeling that this matter might have something to do with Demon Lord.

"No one knows about that. There are cultivators who have gone there to investigate, but for some reason, there seems to be a formation in the Dark Abyss that prevents people from entering. There have been Earth Improvement cultivators who have been there, but they can't enter either. Speaking of which, this Dark Abyss is really strange." Yu Shunnian shook his head and said.

Hearing this, Lee Zhuohua roughly knew what might be at the bottom of the Abyss of Darkness. It was very likely that the Demon Lord who was absorbing the life force of that region was looking for a recovery.

"No matter whether it is Demon Lord or not, I must go to the Abyss of Darkness to take a look when I have the time. There is no harm in being careful." Lee Zhuohua did not know if it was Demon Lord there for the time being, but he still decided to go and take a look.

"Speaking of which, Brother Li, tomorrow will be the day of the Joust For A Spouse Festival of the Lin Family. Do you really not plan on participating? This is a good opportunity to make a name for yourself." At this time, Yu Shunnian began talking about the Joust For A Spouse Festival of the Lin Family.

Lee Zhuohua came back to his senses and shook his head, indicating that he was not interested in participating in the Joust For A Spouse Festival.

But tomorrow he would still go to the scene. After all, this matter had something to do with his friend, and he wanted to see how Lin Yueqing was doing now.

"I really don't want to participate. Sigh, if I was ten years younger and had your strength, I would definitely participate in the Joust For A Spouse Festival. Although Little Sword Immortal is here, the young miss of the Lin Family does not agree to the marriage. If she takes a fancy to us, wouldn't she be able to achieve great success?" Yu Shunnian took a sip of his wine and began blowing on it.

Lee Zhuohua smiled when he saw this and did not say a word.

Wuliuqi, who was standing on the side, couldn't interrupt the entire time. He could also tell that Lee Zhuohua had been hiding his true identity all this time. From the conversation between his master and the other party, although the other party was young, he must also be a powerful cultivator.

Lee Zhuohua noticed that Wuliuqi was looking at him and looked at him as well.

"Fifth Brother, you should follow this Brother Yu carefully. It won't be a mistake for you." Lee Zhuohua reminded Wuliuqi in a low voice.

Wuliuqi naturally understood what Lee Zhuohua meant. He was slightly taken aback for a moment before nodding his head, indicating that he understood.

...

The northernmost part of Ownerless Land, this was a territory called The Northern Dark Sect.

The Northern Dark Sect had two Star Lords of the Earth Surge Realm and a dozen Energy Shaping Realm Warriors. Their strength far exceeded that of the Profound Sect, and they belonged to the middle level power of the Ownerless Land.

However, the Northern Dark Sect was also a subordinate of the Devil Strategy Sect, one of the three peak powers of the Ownerless Land.

Under the command of the Devil Strategy Sect, the Northern Dark Sect could be considered as one of the most powerful sects. In this place called the Abyss of Darkness, the Northern Dark Sect was the sky.

But recently, something had happened that worried the upper echelons of the Northern Dark Sect.

"What exactly is in the Abyss of Darkness? Why is it starting to absorb the life force within a radius of several kilometers?" A Black-robed Old Man stood in the air above the Abyss of Darkness and looked down.

The Black-robed Old Man was the official Sect Master of the Northern Dark Sect, and he was also one of the two Star Lords of the Earth Surge Realm.

Recently, a strange change had started to happen in the Dark Abyss that was originally safe and sound. All the plants and animals that lived nearby had their vitality sucked out. At first, the Northern Dark Sect received the news and sent an Elder of Energy Shaping Realm here to investigate, but there was nothing to be found.

Then the Dark Abyss became so deep that it began to suck the life out of the passers-by, and many of the people who lived nearby were sucked away by the dark abyss as they passed.

This kind of situation occurred, and the Northern Dark Sect could no longer sit still. The Earth Surge warriors came here to investigate, but they were unable to go down at all. It was as if there was an array blocking them.

The Northern Dark Sect Master had also come here today. When he looked at this strange Dark Abyss, he had a strange feeling that there seemed to be something staring at him from the bottom of the abyss. The moment this feeling appeared, the hair on the Northern Dark Sect Master's back stood up.

"What's this?" The Northern Dark Sect Master's expression suddenly changed, and a drop of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

Just at this moment, a ball of black gas floated out of the abyss. Before the Northern Dark Sect Master could even see what it was, the ball of black gas immediately flew towards him.

"What?" The Northern Dark Sect Master was unable to react in time, and was hit by the black gas. After that, he lost consciousness, and his body began to fall from the sky.

Just as the body of the Northern Dark Sect's Master was about to fall into the Dark Abyss, his eyes suddenly opened, and he stabilized his body as he slowly flew up into the sky.

It was just that the Northern Dark Sect Master's current situation was a little strange. There was not a single trace of clarity in his eyes, but instead, it was pitch black.

"Haha." The Northern Dark Sect Master looked down at his hands and let out a cold laugh that made one's teeth tremble. Then, he clenched his fists and slowly put them behind his back, shooting into the distance.

...

Listening Rain City, the second day.

Due to the Joust For A Spouse Festival of the Lin Family, the streets of Listening Rain City seemed to be a bit deserted, and many people rushed towards the Lin Family.

At this moment, there was a wide arena outside the entrance of the Lin Family, and the Lin Family Master and the others were all sitting on the arena, looking down at the scene of people praising each other.

Many of the people in the Listening Rain City had never seen what the daughter of the Lin Family looked like. They were all trying their best to look up at the arena, wanting to see the beautiful face of the daughter of the Lin Family.

However, other than the Lin Family Master and a few elders, there was no one else on the stage. This made everyone feel disappointed.

"Where's the young miss of the Lin family? Why isn't she here? Isn't this the Joust For A Spouse Festival? Why isn't she here?" Someone in the crowd shouted.

"You really think this is a marriage proposal? You want to see the beautiful face of the daughter of the Lin family? Let's see if you still dare to say such a thing when Little Sword Immortal comes." Someone from the side mocked.

After being mocked, the person from before wanted to refute, but when he thought about Little Sword Immortal, he shrank back and didn't dare to say anything else.

Lee Zhuohua had also arrived, and beside him was Wuliuqi and his disciple. Yesterday, he had stayed in the restaurant with the two of them, and they had agreed to come together today to see the Joust For A Spouse Festival.
