Chapter 849: The Tribe in the Abyss

Chapter 849: Chapter 838: The Tribe in the Abyss

A surge of extremely mysterious and profound energy erupted from the Immortal Tree.

This energy fell upon Ding Ling.

Ding Ling’s True Qi level seemed to have been refined.

Not only did it become purer, but there was also an addition of an extremely special Power of Life, which was enough to multiply Ding Ling’s recovery and endurance!

“What is this?!”

“This is my gift to big brother.”

Little Mountain Sea shook its head full of leaves and said crisply:

“Every time I get enhanced, a surge of extremely pure energy overflows. This energy adheres to the Fountain of Youth or the surface of my body. Therefore, anyone who takes the first sip of the Fountain of Youth or eats the bark will undergo a great transformation. But they only increase their lifespan. Big brother is being actively rewarded with this energy by me.

Not only will his lifespan increase, but his True Qi Quality will also become purer, making big brother’s foundation much thicker, and the future realms he can reach will surely be higher!”

“I see.”

Ding Ling was moved and said:

“Thank you!”

He had been curious about why the Water of Eternal Youth and the bark of the Immortal Tree had such miraculous effects.

Now he understood completely. It all stems from this!

The Immortal Tree must grow and transform to overflow with some special energy.

And this time, the Immortal Tree’s transformation was more intense, causing energy to overflow and instantly increase Ding Ling’s lifespan by ten thousand years!

Ding Ling’s lifespan now increased to more than forty thousand years!

That’s a terrifying number.

The ancient civilization spanning five thousand years has already been admired and eyed by the world.

Ding Ling could live for more than forty thousand years!

But he was not satisfied with this; his goal is true immortality—not to live for forty thousand years and then face death again!

“Brother is too kind. If it weren’t for you helping me, I wouldn’t have been able to advance again this quickly. There’s a high chance I would have completely vanished and died under the corrosion of the Abyss flood. It’s big brother who saved me. Big brother is my benefactor, and I will follow big brother from now on.”

Ding Ling smiled and asked:

“Shall we go to the Abyss now?”

“Sure.”

Little Mountain Sea shook its body and ‘spit’ out a more crystal-clear small sapling.

This small sapling was smaller than the previous one, but the light it emitted was gentler.

According to Little Mountain Sea, the strength of this small sapling is twice as much as the previous one, allowing it to better assist Ding Ling in refining the World Qi more quickly.

“Let’s go.”

Holding the small sapling, Ding Ling took a step forward and arrived above the Abyss, looking down.

The flood roared, and Sword Qi surged!

Strands of dim light formed a net or array, working with Sword Qi to fully suppress those strands of decaying, highly toxic Void Nether Qi.

This was the Qi emanating from the Void Nether Soul Zombie Body.

Clang, clang!

The Qi caused the suspended Golden Sword beside Ding Ling to tremble, instinctively showing hostility towards the Void Nether Qi.

The Golden Sword had gained such spirituality that it caught Ding Ling’s attention.

However, he didn’t think much and delved into the flood.

With the small sapling leading the way.

The wondrous array and Sword Qi avoided Ding Ling, not harming him; instead, they protected him in every way.

Ding Ling marveled inwardly.

The array must be controlled by Little Mountain Sea from behind the scenes.

But the Sword Qi also protects him?

He couldn’t understand.

Could it be because of the Golden Sword?

Yes.

This Golden Sword was refined by Lü Dongbin, expending his Primordial Spirit, blood, and energy.

It is greatly aligned with the Eight Trigrams Demon-Slaying Sword Array hidden in the Abyss flood!

And the Golden Sword has now recognized Ding Ling as its master.

The Eight Trigrams Demon-Slaying Sword Array naturally will not harm Ding Ling.

The deeper Ding Ling went, the more he marveled at the enormity of the Eight Trigrams Demon-Slaying Sword Array.

It nearly sealed the entire Abyss.

As he stepped through the Life Gate of the Sword Array, delving into the flood.

Ding Ling looked up, seemingly seeing eight silhouettes guarding the Eight Trigrams Demon-Slaying Sword Array.

Their forms and temperaments were all different, but without exception, they had the determination and courage to subdue demons, sacrifice for all beings, and the world!

“Are those the Eight Immortals?”

“Yes, big brother. They have died, but their obsession refuses to disperse. Also, thanks to their obsession, without it, I might not have survived until big brother came to see me.”

Hearing Little Mountain Sea say this.

Ding Ling felt ashamed.

He believed the words of Heavenly Mountain Granny, Xiao Feng, and the others.

Thinking the Valley of Eternal Spring could last a few more years.

But now it seems that Xiao Feng and the others estimated wrongly.

After all, although Xiao Feng and the others’ cultivation strength has increased considerably over the years, they are only at Grandmaster Level. How can they precisely calculate the floating level and speed of such an unfathomable Abyss?

Swish, swish!

Ding Ling stopped worrying and dived lower.

Soon.

He reached the Bottom of the Abyss.

Here he saw clusters of tribes!

Among the tribes, there were men and women, old and young.

Each one’s form resembled humans; men handsome as gods, women graceful as fairies, all unlike those in the Mortal World.

Upon seeing Ding Ling, they all drew the swords and knives from their waists without speaking, silently charging towards Ding Ling.

Bang, bang, bang!

When they were a thousand feet from Ding Ling, they struck with their swords, wielded their blades, and suddenly, Sword Qi and blade Qi surged like a sea, sweeping in with the waves, as if to completely overwhelm Ding Ling!

“These are the adult Void Nether Soul Zombies, then?”

Ding Ling grasped into the void, holding the Golden Sword, launching the Breaking Technique Sword. In an instant, streams of Sword Light within the flood condensed into a Sword River capable of breaking through everything. Ding Ling stepped onto the Sword River, swiftly charging ahead!

Compared to the flood, Sword River appeared quite small.

But it seemed like an all-piercing golden needle, moving upstream!

Everything it passed through was forcefully pierced and shattered!

The Breaking Technique Sword, as the name implies!

Can break all techniques!

No matter how strong the technique of the Void Nether Soul Zombies is, if they do not exceed the level of the Martial Dao True Understanding Breaking Technique Sword, they will only be broken by the Breaking Technique Sword!

As Sword Light gleamed and shimmered!

The Sword Qi from the Golden Sword swept out freely!

Quickly breaking through the enemy’s blade Qi and Sword Qi flood, reaching the Void Nether Soul Zombies upfront, clank!

Then the slaughter began.

Like chopping melons and vegetables.

With each swing, Ding Ling slayed one, rampaging among them, and in just moments, over a hundred adult Void Nether Soul Zombies were killed.

“They’re indeed strong. Each one’s strength has reached the Martial Arts Golden Core Level! Some can even rival the Initial Tier of First-Grade Primordial Spirit experts. Such experts can dominate in the Wind and Cloud World; Demon King Poxun is likely no more than this!”

“Yet here they gather in droves!”

Ding Ling let out a long whistle, fully deploying the Breaking Technique Sword.

Bang!

A single sword strike, myriad swords rushing forth, and in the blink of an eye, engulfed thousands of densely packed Void Nether Soul Zombies ahead.

Bang, bang, bang!

Each Void Nether Soul Zombie was torn apart in shape by the Sword Qi of the Breaking Technique Sword, revealing their true forms!
