Are We Going This Big This Time?
Chu Xinghe's decision not to let An Ying go was not based on any ulterior motive; it was simply because, although An Ying was not weak, An Ying had been trapped in the Land of Bewildered Spirits for far too long!
Before the Three Continents and the Evil Shadow Continent were merged, An Ying was definitely an extremely powerful being!
Of course, even today, after the merger of the Four Continents, An Ying remains the strongest among the strong.
But An Ying is the most tragic of all the prodigies, and the only one who didn't benefit from the merger of the Four Continents!
Nowadays, the top geniuses in the outside world have either stepped into the Martial Divine Realm or at least reached the Half-Step Martial God!
But An Ying remains at the Peak of the Ninth Rank!
There was no other way; An Ying was in the Land of Bewildered Spirits, a place truly devoid of Spirit Power!
The problem isn't with the An Ying itself, it's with the area it's in!
Therefore, although An Ying is still considered a strong force, it has fallen slightly behind.
Therefore, Chu Xinghe's consideration was simple: if his An Ying cultivation was insufficient, he shouldn't venture into the Star Sea Abyss!
What if something bad happens... that wouldn't be good, would it?
Chu Xinghe neither liked nor disliked An Ying... In fact, from a certain perspective, Chu Xinghe felt that An Ying was the same kind of person as himself, both of them were extremely unlucky!
If An Ying had been even slightly luckier, with his abilities he would have caused enormous destruction across the Three Continents back then!
But luck is such a mysterious thing sometimes!
Chu Xinghe thought it was simple, but An Ying thought it was complicated!
Seriously... Nobody thinks I'm safe just because I, An Ying, don't follow them in, right?
Friends, there are only two possible outcomes to entering the Star Sea Abyss this time!
The first priority is to get out safely. Whether it goes smoothly or not, as long as I can get out safely, then haven't I gained Chu Xinghe's initial trust during this trip to the Star Sea Abyss?
The second possibility is that everyone died in the Star Sea Abyss!
What the hell? If it's so dangerous, why would I, An Ying, go in?
Friend... you don't think I can survive by not entering the An Ying, do you?
Your skull doesn't have a brain; it's all wrinkles, right?
If Chu Xinghe dies in the Star Sea Abyss, it may seem like I, An Ying, have survived, but I will not only die, but my fate will be even worse than dying in the Star Sea Abyss!
Imagine, Chu Xinghe is dead... dead in the Star Sea Abyss. What would be the reaction of the Vast Heaven Holy Land and even the entire Four Continents?
Under these circumstances, only An Ying and Chu Xinghe entered the Buddha Domain!
In this situation, I told those living devils from Vast Heaven Holy Land that it had nothing to do with my An Ying... I was just following Chu Xinghe's orders and didn't go in, so I have no idea what happened inside!
In this situation, do you think the Great Sage would believe, or open the Avici Hell?
Do you think Ouyang Ling will believe it, or will she give me a few packs first?
Do you think the Grand Elder will believe me, or will he use me to make medicine?
So from the moment I, An Ying, met Chu Xinghe, An Ying knew that my fate was intertwined with Chu Xinghe's!
This is a matter of shared prosperity and shared loss!
If Chu Xinghe survives, then I, An Ying, will be promoted to a junior confidant in this one move. In the Future, I might even be able to go toe-to-toe with Ma Liang?
Hmph! Everyone says Ma Liang is the only candidate to Future Grand Elder of the Vast Heaven Holy Land!
But now, what I, An Ying, want to say is, that won't be the case anymore...
I am An Ying... a man determined to defeat Ma Liang and seize the position of the Future Grand Elder of the Vast Heaven Holy Land!
So An Ying declared that as long as I can still crawl, there's absolutely no way I won't go in!
Chu Xinghe didn't know what An Ying was thinking, but given An Ying's insistence on going in, Chu Xinghe could only nod in the end!
Soon, it was time to enter the Star Sea Abyss...
As time came, the Great Buddha Lord, along with the Little Buddha, Chu Xinghe, and An Ying, arrived at the center of Mount Sumeru!
Looking at the area at the very center of Mount Sumeru that was sealed off by forbidden magic, Chu Xinghe realized, good heavens... the entrance to the Star Sea Abyss had actually been hidden inside Mount Sumeru all along!
In other words, the entire Mount Sumeru is actually the place that suppresses the boundary between the Star Sea Abyss and the Buddha Domain!
Each generation of Buddha Lord entered the Star Sea Abyss from Mount Sumeru a thousand years later to suppress the Star Ghost Clan and ensure a thousand years of peace in the Buddha Domain!
At this moment, the entire barrier emitted a faint blue light. The Great Buddha Lord stood before the barrier and spoke, "I will give you one last piece of advice: you only have five days and nights to alternate... This is the maximum limit for opening the barrier!"
"If more than five days and nights pass, regardless of whether you come out or not, I will completely close the barrier, and then you will never have another chance to come out!"
This time, the Great Buddha Lord wasn't just trying to scare everyone. Once Great Buddha Lord opened this restriction, he would need to use his own power to suppress it.
He can only maintain this for a maximum of five days and nights. Once that time is exceeded, his power will be greatly depleted, and he will have to close the restriction no matter what!
Once this restriction is lifted, it will not be able to be reopened for at least a year!
Therefore, five days and nights is the limit!
Without saying much, the Little Buddha bowed to the Great Buddha Lord and was the first to enter the restricted area.
Chu Xinghe originally wanted to follow closely behind, but An Ying went up first!
An Ying said he had learned his lesson the hard way about going in there later...
What if, like before, we can't find Chu Xinghe after going in?
So I positioned myself between Little Buddha and Chu Xinghe to get in; that's the safest way!
Following closely behind the An Ying, Chu Xinghe also entered the Star Sea Abyss!
The restriction was like a tunnel leading to an unknown world... Inside the tunnel, Chu Xinghe a dizzying sensation, and when he opened his eyes again, the world around him had undergone tremendous changes!
At this moment, he was no longer on Mount Sumeru, but in front of a cliff, and directly in front of this cliff was an endless abyss with no bottom in sight!
This must be the legendary Star Sea Abyss!
But compared to the unfathomable Star Sea Abyss, what truly made Chu Xinghe find unbelievable was that, above his head, when he looked up, he could see a crescent moon!
That's right!
At this moment, Chu Xinghe even felt as if he had traveled through time!
Is this fucking right?
Isn't the Buddha Domain above the Star Sea Abyss? What happened? Did they change the setting?
Otherwise, why can't we see stars and the moon in the Buddha Domain, but we can see the moon in the Star Sea Abyss?
"That's not the moon... that's the power of the Ancient God's Right Arm!"
Just as Chu Xinghe was feeling confused, the Little Buddha's voice came from the side. The next moment, the Little Buddha pointed to a faint thread under the moon, a thread that led straight to the deepest part of the Star Sea Abyss!
At this moment, Chu Xinghe also saw clearly that the silk thread was like a thread pulling the crescent moon in the sky. The crescent moon in the sky was not the real moon, but an afterimage projected in the air by the power emanating from the Ancient God's Right Arm in the Star Sea Abyss!
There appears to be light, but it can only illuminate the entrance to the Star Sea Abyss, not Star Sea Abyss interior.
The Ancient God's Left Arm landed in the Buddha Domain, thus giving rise to Mental Power within the Buddha Domain. With the help of the Ancient God's Left Arm, the Buddha Domain can control the daytime.
The Ancient God's Right Arm landed in the Star Sea Abyss. The Star Ghosts of the Star Sea Abyss comprehended the Ancient God's Right Arm and forcibly projected a crescent moon into the sky with it. Although it was just a crescent moon and not a star, it could still provide the Star Ghosts with Power of Star Souls, allowing it to no longer remain in the dark and sunless Star Sea Abyss forever!
The Little Buddha was right; the crescent moon in the sky was indeed the transformation of the Ancient God's Right Arm. But for some reason, this time his own Ancient God's Head did not connect with the Ancient God's Right Arm!
Unlike when he first arrived at Mount Sumeru, the Ancient God's Head did not ask him any questions!
Even after consulting Chu Xinghe, he dared not rashly absorb this power, for he would surely die if he did!
Just as Chu Xinghe was reflecting on these things, a shout suddenly came from beside him!
"Holy crap? What... what the hell is this place?" The voice came from An Ying!
Looking in the direction of the An Ying, Chu Xinghe froze on the spot!
Not only Chu Xinghe, but Little Buddha also stared in that direction with disbelief!
Directly in front of you is the endless abyss of the Star Sea Abyss!
But behind them... was a floating island!
At this moment, the floating island was hovering behind Chu Xinghe. However, everyone was attracted by Star Sea Abyss and Canyue just now, and only now did they see the island clearly!
At this moment, Chu Xinghe looked towards the small island, and the entire island was densely packed with people sitting cross-legged!
They varied in height, weight, and even appearance... some were incredibly strange!
They are not all Human Race; among them are even Demon Race... and Devil Race... and all sorts of other races!
They were all sitting cross-legged on the small island, and there were at least tens of thousands of them!
When Chu Xinghe saw this scene, he remembered what Three Well Spirits Elders had mentioned about the Star Sea Abyss!
Back then, it took countless powerful figures from various races working together to seal the Star Sea Abyss, but the battle to seal the Star Sea Abyss was far more brutal than imagined!
The powerful figures from all sides didn't just casually set up a large formation to seal off the Star Sea Abyss!
If that's really the case, then it's too simple!
According to what Three Well Spirits Elders learned from the ancestors of his clan, countless powerful individuals sacrificed their own blood to finally set up a seal strong enough to completely suppress the Star Sea Abyss in order to seal it!
Those predecessors who sacrificed their blood were also forever left in the Star Sea Abyss along with this seal!
The exact number of powerful individuals who sacrificed their lives to seal the Star Sea Abyss remains a mystery!
But today... Chu Xinghe thought, "I'm absolutely furious!"
Look, everyone... Could these be the ancestors who were sacrificed to seal away the Star Sea Abyss back then?
If it were just these seniors present, Chu Xinghe would show them the utmost respect and be willing to offer them his deepest gratitude!
The problem now is, everyone, please take a close look at the ancestors on that island... Although they have passed away due to the blood sacrifice, the various treasures they possess... we don't know what the hell is wrong with them... why are they still shining so brightly today?
Wait... is this some serious stuff? I, Chu Xinghe, was only being chased by treasures before!
But most of the time, it's just a few treasures chasing after me...
What the hell is going on here? A small island has suddenly appeared?
Isn't this amount a bit too large?
