Before truly entering the Ancient Sacred Abyss.
Perhaps stimulated by the sheer number of Border Experts he had seen, Liu Chen broke through in one fell swoop to the High-level Earth Supreme realm, finally reaching the average level at the border.
Luo Li's foundation had never been as deep as Liu Chen's. Though her strength had improved again, she had failed to break through, remaining a Low-level Earth Supreme.
When it was time to enter the Ancient Sacred Abyss, Qing Xuan had wanted to instruct the younger members of the Fu Tu Ancient Clan, led by Qing Shuang and Qing Ling, to ensure Liu Chen's safety after entering.
However, Liu Chen politely declined. Liu Xi had brought him and Luo Li here precisely so that they could receive the proper tempering.
If they were protected in everything they did, how could they receive the tempering they deserved? Thus, the two chose to enter the Ancient Sacred Abyss on their own.
Qing Xuan and another Heaven Supreme elder of the Fu Tu Ancient Clan were worried upon hearing this, but they were also deeply gratified.
In the end, Liu Chen and Luo Li entered the Ancient Sacred Abyss as a team.
The ink-black sky, the muddy ground scattered with exposed bones, the strange jagged rocks, and the bizarre plants—this was Liu Chen's first impression of the Ancient Sacred Abyss.
This had originally been one of the ancient battlefields. Chaotic Spiritual Energy and violent demonic energy filled every corner of this land.
They had even formed all kinds of perilous secret realms, such as Spirit Transformation Wind, Soul Freezing Snow, and the Destruction Thunder Zone... If one rashly entered them, those with sufficient strength might have a sliver of hope of survival, but the weak would only die without a burial place.
