Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain

Sunken Abyss is the official name of this land.

It is outside the scope of Jade Capital Radiation and borders only its most peripheral area.

Some of the thoughts of Higher Lifeform are similar. After Solar Yang disappeared, the locals thought that their homeland fell to Abyss, so they got this name.

Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain is located in the central area of Sunken Abyss. Nowadays, with the continuous arrival of outsiders, its reputation has also skyrocketed.

Sunken Abyss is vast and sparsely populated, and the population is mainly concentrated in the north and middle areas adjacent to Jade Capital. As for the south side, it is connected to the endless Night Mist World, with no end.

There are more than a dozen major forces in the huge Sunken Abyss, and their official leaders, leaders, and clan leaders are all Grandmaster. Now they are all in seclusion and dare not come out.

Because they were all seriously injured by the drastic changes in the world.

"Stay away from Supreme Land, Grandmaster can be considered a top-notch combat power." Qin Ming looked surprised.

When he first came to the central area of Sunken Abyss - Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain, he had already integrated well into the local area and learned a lot of news. Of course, the premise was that he had Day Gold in his hands.

Day Gold belongs to hard currency no matter where it is. It is said that if the quantity is large enough, some kind of very mysterious Divine Substance can be extracted from it.

Its preciousness is no less than Exotic Metal.

"Sir, you are wrong. Grandmaster is definitely not the ultimate creature of Sunken Abyss. Go all the way south and enter the depths of Night Mist World. Those areas are simply unimaginable."

The owner of the inn, for Day Gold's sake, personally and enthusiastically answered Qin Ming's questions.

"Occasionally, mysterious creatures pass through, and hurricanes roar, blowing away the gates and buildings of some important towns in the south. This is why the population gathers in the center and north."

The clerk added, "Yes, legendary species occasionally appear on the south side of Sunken Abyss, such as White Roc, which is all white and can swallow thousands of people with just one opening of its mouth."

The boss said, "There are also crazy Godlike creatures that have escaped from the depths of Night Mist World. Some are huge, like the sun's disk across the sky, and the terrifying beams they radiate can make people in a city go crazy..."

The clerk said, "It's getting better now. In the past year, the general environment seems to have changed, and those terrible species don't show up very much."

Qin Ming naturally knows the reason, and now even Third Realm and Fourth Realm people are affected.

He does not understand the local language, but he can communicate smoothly with the two of them, mainly through Spirit Domain.

He is not worried that his status as an outsider will attract attention, because there are too many adventurers outside Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain. Not to mention normal ones like him, even donkeys who open their mouths and talk can stay in the inn.

Outside Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain, there are many taverns and inns dotted here and there. There are no castles, at most there are some slightly larger stone castles.

Qin Ming looked outside the inn and saw a big silver-furred mouse walking upright, one paw touching its mustache, and the other paw hugging a Black-Skirts Woman who was walking like a cat.

He was surprised, was that Silver Rat with Black Cat? Black-Skirts Woman had a pair of cat ears.

He deeply realized that this place was really "tolerant" and that species that were naturally opposed to each other could come together.

"That's a Black Tiger Woman." The innkeeper noticed his expression and told him secretly.

It's not a cat, it's a mouse with a tiger, and this is an upgrade? Qin Ming looks strange.

It wasn't until he saw Silver Rat walking away with the tiger girl in his arms that the innkeeper dared to say, "Don't underestimate me, that gopher is a Master!"

He euphemistically said that in this land of Sunken Abyss, as long as he is strong enough, it is normal for Master-level old toad to marry the declining Aristocratic Clan legitimate daughter as his bride.

Qin Ming looked calm. It was not like he had never heard of similar things. Immortal Path Grandmaster Ling Canghai married Immortal Seed. The key was that when he was one hundred and ninety years old, his father-in-law had just been born.

"Boss, please build a courtyard with spiritual flowers and strange grasses." A palm-sized humanoid creature flew in first, with a pair of golden butterfly wings growing on its back.

"Okay!" The innkeeper is also a practitioner and is already used to it.

Soon, more than a dozen Golden Butterfly came and stayed in this inn.

Later, because of Day Gold, the innkeeper was very patient and gave Qin Ming detailed answers, and also gave him a rough map of Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain.

"In many areas, the terrain map is not detailed because it is too dangerous, especially the core area. Although there are many good things, groups of people enter and die miserably."

The concerns encountered by outsiders can all be answered here. The main reason is that too many people come, which makes the locals "sophisticated" in business. Even many high-end inns and pubs here have "came into being".

Qin Ming discovered that his problems were nothing at all. There was a mature expedition team here that could help newcomers get familiar with Ascension Mountain and protect him.

Of course, if you want to join, you need to pay a hefty fee.

In addition, newcomers must fulfill their obligations even if it is their first adventure with the team. If a crisis arises, they must work together and follow the team to take action.

And if there is any gain, the newcomer will receive less fortuitous opportunity.

There are even expedition teams that are not just for exploring, but are specifically designed to take newcomers around in Ascension Mountain and help them quickly become familiar with various dangerous places.

The innkeeper reminded, "Some famous teams have either the local power Take Care Of at the top, or the powerful civilization Outer Domain exerting influence."

According to his point of view, bringing in new people is just something that large organizations do casually. Although they will provide shelter, it is actually to recruit peripheral members to explore and learn more about the landforms.

Soon, Qin Ming learned about it from various sources and selected several teams with good reputations, mainly because of their low mortality rate. He contacted them that day, hoping to enter the mountain as early as possible.

Outside Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain, there is a stone castle, surrounded by vines and dense purple flowers. The fragrance is wafting in the night wind. The environment is quite good.

Qin Ming noticed that the monks who came here were mainly older people, with fewer young people.

This expedition team has a big name: Godlike.

"What realm are you in?" In front of the stone castle, there was someone behind the desk in charge of registration.

"Third Realm..." Qin Ming just started, but before he said the specific level, whether it was the middle or late stage, he was interrupted by the other party.

"Sorry, the route we take at Godlike Organization is too dangerous and may not be suitable for you. Please try another one."

Qin Ming didn't expect that there is a threshold for joining an expedition team just by signing up.

He doesn't have anything like Say More. The main reason is that he has concealed his strength. How can he communicate with others in an unfamiliar environment? It would be safer to join some low-level teams. The main reason for his first trip to the mountains is to familiarize himself with the environment.

Godlike Organization The person in charge of registration waved his hand and asked him to go to his next home, which was next door, saying that it would be more suitable for him.

"Hurry up, don't block the road." People from Godlike Organization were a little impatient. They took the high-end route here and looked down upon the explorers from the Third Realm.

At the top of the stone castle, a young man and woman are looking down. They are important figures in Godlike Organization and rarely appear here on weekdays.

The man has long fiery red hair, red glow flowing in his eyes, and his body surface seems to be covered with a blood-colored texture.

The woman's clothes are as white as snow and her hair is silver. Her appearance is very outstanding, giving people a sense of emptiness and tranquility.

This organization has a very strong background and comes from the depths of Night Mist World.

The red-haired man said, "I think the young man just now is a bit unusual. He is calm and has clear eyes. In this environment, his Daoist charm is not disordered at all. Maybe we should call him and absorb him into our core team."

The woman glanced at him and said, "That person has no spiritual light coming out of his head. Even if he is outstanding, it is just that."

There was a crescent moon between her eyebrows. She stared at Qin Ming's back, frowned slightly and said, "Well, Contained Within's spirituality seems to be quite good, but there is no need to call him back again."

"Moon Goddess, don't make any mistakes." the red-haired man said.

"Then use your Blood God fog to explore and see what's going on." The woman with a crescent moon mark between her eyebrows glanced at him.

A faint blood mist evaporated from the red-haired man's body, and light like sunset flowed, spreading out silently.

Soon, he shook his head and said, "Although this person is good, he is really not at the stage where we can invite him to join us again."

Nowadays, the old guys with higher realms dare not move around at will. Young and strong men like them are already the core members of Godlike Organization here.

Moreover, their names are very special, White-Clad Woman is "Moon Goddess", and the red-haired man is "Blood God". They all call themselves gods.

Qin Ming "Light Harmony Tongchen" blends into the surrounding environment and is easily overlooked. He doesn't want to stand out in a strange place.

But his keen spiritual sense will not be ordinary. He has already noticed that Moon Goddess and Blood God are exploring above the stone castle, and he senses that they are two extraordinary people.

"Well, there are no simple people who dare to venture here from Outer Domain." He reminded himself that he should not be careless here, as he might encounter Saint Disciple, a top-level civilization.

Next door, there is also a stone castle. The name of this expedition organization is: Cautious Action.

It can be said that the core purpose of this team is reflected in the name, which is concise and concise, and will not set foot in dangerous places, with the premise of ensuring safety.

Their mortality rate is extremely low. It is rare for them to have an accident even if they travel many times. Most of them return safely.

Qin Ming happily paid Day Gold, joined them, and agreed that they would go into the mountains tomorrow after Shallow Night arrived. The time taken for a trip ranged from five to ten days, and it was roughly possible to walk through the main areas of Remnant Vein of Ascension Mountain.

Of course, this team really just walked by and passed by, rather than going on an in-depth adventure.

An old man from the Cautious Action organization said, "Please wear this Bronze Mask. Anything can happen when you go into the mountains. For example, if you accidentally offend others, to avoid being retaliated later, it is better not to reveal your true face. This is also a kind of protection."

Tomorrow he will lead the team into the mountains.

Qin Ming "Follow what is good". In fact, he has been prepared for it, and there is no need for outsiders to remind him.

The old man who led the team smiled and said, "We don't call names here, we call numbers 1 to 15. It's too late for you to sign up. Only number 14 has not been selected. Now you are number 14."

Qin Ming nodded, it doesn't matter, let alone the 14th, so what if it's Number Four, what impact can it have?

Later, the old man leading the team told him that he was Number Four.

"Okay." Qin Ming left.

In the same area, Bai Meng is talking to Tang Yushang.

"Sister, I feel that that back really looks like brother Qin Ming." Apparently, when he was at Earthen City in the past, although Qin Ming's influence on him had subsided, it still left some sequelae. He habitually called Qin Ming his brother.

In fact, he felt that he was also at fault for the conflict at Great Thunderclap Temple. Later, although he was "blinded" by Consciousness Spirit Light at Earthen City, when he interacted with Qin Ming, he did feel that this person was good, so his resentment almost subsided.

He even advised Tang Yushang to let it go and forget about it. It was not a deep grudge.

"Have you been brainwashed by him and you still haven't recovered yet?" Tang Yushang was dissatisfied.

She is dressed in red. Ordinary people really can't afford such a bright long dress, which will look tacky. However, she has waterfalls of green hair, a flawless white face, radiant eyes, and perfect curves in her body. She is truly the most gorgeous in red makeup.

Bai Meng said, "It's better to dissolve enemies than to end them. My good buddy is not a bad person. In fact, I was beaten even worse by him. Sister, didn't you just get kicked? At worst, when we meet again, during the joke, you also kicked his ass. Wouldn't that make things even?"

He didn't realize at all that his "rough" words made Great Tang's pretty face change color. In Tang Yushang's opinion, these were all bad words? She didn't want to be mentioned about her past kicking in the butt.

"Sister, be more generous!" Bai Meng hadn't noticed that the expression on the person opposite him was wrong when he looked at him.

"I see that you haven't recovered yet after being "planted as a demon" in his heart." Great Tang took action, suppressed him, and then directly "down-to-earth brother".

Bai Meng grinned in pain and still tried to persuade her, "Sister, are you still brooding over your only defeat? It was just a defeat. I know that the main reason is that you imitated my Mental Field and entered Great Thunderclap Temple, unable to use your true abilities... Actually, these are not things."

"Shut up!" Tang Yushang said, "Sister, try your best." Bai Meng screamed in agony.

The next day, after Shallow Night arrived, Qin Ming set off with the team "Cautious Action". He inadvertently looked back and saw an expedition team in the distance, and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity between the two figures.

"No way, how can you meet someone you know when you come to such a far place?" He thought to himself, the faces of the two people didn't match up, but he had some special feelings.

In fact, Tai Xu where Tang Yushang is located is not very far from Sunken Abyss. You only need to pass through three Mist Gate to get there.

In the long past, Tai Xu was the place where Jade Capital met on the ground. It had such a strong background that Higher Lifeform there considered itself Holy Race.

Many expedition teams enter the mountains every day. As the fourteenth member of the team, Qin Ming officially sets foot in the residual veins and is deeply surprised by this land.

After only half a day in the mountain, he saw all kinds of strange places, such as the bloody mire, where the light of fairy lights appeared from time to time, making people unable to take their eyes away.

Some people assert that many powerful people died down there, and there are probably Earth Immortal-level ruins, or even Heavenly God Palace.

The old man Number Four who led the team looked serious and said, "Everyone, let's just take a look. Some people have indeed dug up good things here, but more people have gone deep into the mire and disappeared forever. Even Master has not been able to break free and was swallowed up by the blood mud."

On the third day after entering the mountain, Number Four took them into an area of mountainous peaks. The place was filled with fairy spirit and auspicious clouds evaporated from time to time, which was very sacred.

"Immortal Palace!" Most of the team were newcomers, and they were surprised. Deep in the mountains, palaces and palaces were looming, each with External Gods secrets.

"Just take a look." Number Four was very responsible and seriously reminded everyone that they could only watch from a distance and not get involved.

They were here to watch quietly. Not long after, they heard a shrill scream. A very powerful Flood Dragon, with golden spiritual wings on its back, flew silently towards the Immortal Palace, but was blocked on the way.

It was a group of strange insects, like a red rain of light boiling. In just a blink of an eye, it completely devoured the Flood Dragon that was close to Master. Not even the skeleton was left. Only a few scales fell into the night sky with blood stains.

"Crimson God Insect, one of the top twenty strange insects in the world, actually has a nest here, how terrifying!" Many people's faces turned pale on the spot.

At the same time, they had a great impression of Number Four. Fortunately, they had such a responsible team leader. Otherwise, if they accidentally entered it, they would have died without knowing how.

The old man who led the team said, "There are indeed many good things in the residual vein, but there are more dangers. Let's save our lives. Let's go and wait and see in the next place."

"Aren't there areas that are relatively safe and less dangerous?" someone asked.

Number Four thought for a while and said, "Well, there are some, but whether you can get good luck depends entirely on luck. Since you mentioned it, let's go to the next place and give it a try."

A dark mountain, with Astral Wind blowing out constantly, but under the leadership of the old man, there was a special mountain road to take, avoiding the black storm, and they were moving forward in a roundabout way.

Number Four introduced, "Sometimes, Astral Wind can blow out good things from the mountains, such as Strange Medicine fallen petals, leaves of sacred trees, etc., and even broken pages of bronze scriptures. I guess the depths are an extraordinary place. Let's wait in a safe area and try our luck."

Suddenly, the bodies of some people in the team exploded inexplicably, and they were covered in blood. Even their bones and consciousness fragments exploded, and their bodies and minds were destroyed.

Qin Ming was so horrified that he did not retreat, but rushed forward directly, because the crisis actually spread from behind.

"You have entered the mountain ten times and only sent Blood Food in once. Are you too cautious?" Astral Wind heard a dull voice.

"The death rate cannot be too high." Number Four smiled lightly. This blood sacrifice was completed, and the other party would soon open a safe road for him.

"You..." There was still someone who was still alive, struggling with half of his body, extremely angry, and pointed at the old man leading the team.

Number Four smiled and said, "Don't blame me. I can only say that you are not lucky enough to catch up with this batch. Today is the time for blood sacrifice."

Deep in the mountain, Qin Ming saw a fan swaying slightly on a mountain in the distance, and all Astral Wind was emitted by it.

"How could..." Artifact Spirit of the Eight Trigrams Furnace was startled and murmured.

"Have you sensed Qing Yue and Jiang Ran?" Qin Ming asked.

"Well, behind the mountain where Astral Wind broke out." The weapon spirit responded, and at the same time it looked straight at the huge mountain where the fan was.

"Have you seen it?" Qin Ming was surprised and stared at the badly damaged fan carefully. To be precise, it had rotted and deteriorated on its own.

"Eight Sceneries Palace's fan actually fell here." Qi Ling said solemnly.

Qin Ming looked shocked, it must be an incredible treasure, but its material was... rotten.

Astral Wind in the mountain was scary, Qin Ming felt it, and immediately ran <Wind Riding Scripture>. In an instant, two Divine Radiance shot out from his eyes. He sat down on the spot and tried to capture some mysterious fluctuations.
