Chapter 50

The Black Abyss, located in the southern part of the Northern Spirit Region, is a rather remote place. Due to its extreme danger, it is rarely visited by people, making it extremely desolate.

There is some distance between the Mu Domain and the Black Abyss, so when Mu Feng and his group arrived at the Black Abyss, it was already three days later.

Mu Chen stood on a hillside, looking ahead. What met his eyes was a primeval forest with a dark hue. Above the endless black forest, a grayish death fog spread, which was highly toxic. Even a powerhouse at the Spirit Wheel Realm would not dare to let it invade their body easily.

Even though there was still some distance, Mu Chen could still feel the thick death aura and a stench emanating from the Black Abyss. Compared to the Northern Spirit Plain, this place was far more perilous, no wonder it was a forbidden area that everyone in the Northern Spirit Region talked about with fear.

"The troops from the Liu Domain should have also arrived at the Black Abyss. They entered from the western passage, so we might encounter them soon after we enter," Zhou Ye said, looking at the Black Abyss with a deep voice.

Mu Feng nodded slightly, then took out a jade bottle containing some dark red pills: "Everyone, take these Detox Pills. Although they can't completely prevent the highly toxic substances, they do offer some resistance to the death fog."

Mu Chen also took a Detox Pill and swallowed it, immediately feeling a cool sensation spreading through his body, indicating that the Detox Pill was working.

"The dangers of the Black Abyss are known to all, so be on your guard. Let's go!"

Seeing everyone prepared, Mu Feng did not delay. He waved his hand and dashed forward, heading straight for the distant Black Abyss. Behind him, Zhou Ye, Mu Chen, and the others immediately followed.

The group of nearly a hundred people was not small, but the people Mu Feng led were all experienced, so they moved silently, not even stirring up dust. Finally, they quietly entered the Black Abyss, which was shrouded in death fog.

After entering the Black Abyss, Mu Chen could feel a cold sensation spreading from all directions, making the blood in his body stiffen slightly.

Mu Chen's eyes scanned the dim environment warily. Compared to the Northern Spirit Plain, this place was unusually quiet, but it was precisely this silence that made people uneasy.

The group cautiously advanced deeper. Mu Chen could feel that everyone's body was tense, their hands gripping their bright weapons tightly, and their spiritual energy quietly circulating.

However, despite their extreme caution, the Black Abyss was clearly full of danger and filled with killing intent.

Ah!

Not long after the group entered the Black Abyss, a shrill scream echoed from within the group. Suddenly, a huge, black, ferocious snake emerged from the ground covered with decaying leaves. The snake's massive body twisted, instantly swallowing two Mu Domain experts who were caught off guard. Black saliva dripped from its huge mouth, corroding the withered leaves on the ground, clearly indicating its toxicity.

"It's a Black Abyss Snake!"

The group was momentarily thrown into chaos by the sudden attack, but they quickly stabilized. Everyone looked at the ferocious black snake and exclaimed in shock. This was a mid-level spirit beast, comparable to a mid-stage Spirit Wheel Realm powerhouse. They didn't expect to encounter such a strong spirit beast as soon as they entered the Black Abyss.

"Hmph."

Seeing this, Zhou Ye frowned, then let out a cold snort. He took a step forward, and his powerful spiritual energy erupted. His figure flashed, appearing above the Black Abyss Snake, and he stomped heavily on the snake's massive body.

Roar!

As Zhou Ye's feet stomped down, spiritual energy flashed behind him, vaguely forming a huge beast shape—a deep yellow rhinoceros. The rhinoceros, covered in thick scales, seemed to be carrying a small mountain on its back.

Boom!

When the deep yellow rhinoceros appeared, Zhou Ye's body seemed to become as heavy as a mountain, and an incredibly heavy weight erupted, directly crushing the Black Abyss Snake. The ground trembled, and the snake fell to the ground with a mournful cry, its body crushed into a bloody pulp.

A mid-level spirit beast, comparable to a mid-stage Spirit Wheel Realm powerhouse, was thus crushed to death by Zhou Ye.

Seeing this, Mu Chen couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"Your Uncle Zhou has now advanced to the early-stage Divine Soul Realm. The spirit beast essence he has refined is the Mountain Spirit Rhinoceros, ranked 180th on the Earth List of the Ten Thousand Beast Record. When he exerts pressure, it's like a mountain pressing down, instantly crushing people into meat paste," Mu Feng said.

Mu Chen nodded enviously, wondering when he would obtain his own spirit beast essence.

Zhou Ye extracted the spirit beast essence from the Black Abyss Snake, then walked back and said sternly, "The Black Abyss is full of dangers. If you don't want to lose your lives, stay alert!"

Everyone quickly responded, though they were already extremely cautious, it seemed that this was still not enough.

After clearing the Black Abyss Snake, the group continued to advance, but this time they were even more cautious. Sharp, wary eyes constantly scanned the surroundings, and even when stepping, they would carefully probe the ground before placing their feet.

This caution, while slowing their progress, proved effective. After the Black Abyss Snake, the group encountered several more stealthy attacks, but fortunately, no more casualties occurred, with only a dozen or so people sustaining minor injuries.

Such cautious travel continued for about half an hour, and Mu Feng's group had begun to penetrate deeper into the Black Abyss. However, the surroundings became increasingly silent and eerie.

"Tap."

Mu Feng, who was at the front, suddenly stopped, his eyes sharp as he looked into the dark forest emitting a putrid smell. He sneered, "Liu Qingtian, when did you become so fond of hiding in the shadows?"

Hearing Mu Feng's words, everyone was startled and quickly tightened their grip on their weapons, their eyes fixed on the dark forest. They had finally encountered the Liu Domain people here?

Mu Chen also stared in that direction, this encounter happening earlier than he had expected.

"Mu Feng, your Mu Domain is really hard to shake off."

Not long after Mu Feng spoke, a faint laugh echoed from the dark forest, followed by rustling footsteps. Several figures slowly emerged from the forest.

There were at least a hundred figures, and their formation was quite formidable. Mu Chen's eyes swept over them and immediately focused on the front, where a middle-aged man in a green robe stood with a faint smile. He had slightly sunken eyes that, when they swept over, were like those of a tiger or leopard, making people feel a chill.

Liu Qingtian, the Lord of the Liu Domain.

Mu Chen pursed his lips, clearly, this was Liu Qingtian, the Lord of the largest domain in the Northern Spirit Region!

Beside Liu Qingtian stood a very thin middle-aged man with green eyes and a cold, emotionless face. The faint spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from his body indicated that he was also a powerhouse who had advanced to the Divine Soul Realm!

Liu Zong, the Second Lord of the Liu Domain.

Mu Chen quickly identified this person, as Liu Ming, whom he had met before, was standing behind him. Beside Liu Ming was another familiar face—Liu Mu Bai, who had unexpectedly come along this time.

The two groups' eyes met, and the atmosphere immediately turned hostile. Spiritual energy quietly surged, and the tension became palpable.

"Boy, it's really you who took that thing!"

Seeing Mu Chen following Mu Feng, Liu Ming and Liu Mu Bai's eyes turned cold, especially Liu Ming, who looked as if he wanted to grind his teeth. Although he had guessed it, he couldn't help but feel furious when it was confirmed. He, the Third Lord of the Liu Domain, had been outwitted by a mere youth, which made him furious.

Facing Liu Ming's vicious gaze, Mu Chen merely smiled at him, then looked at the cold-eyed Liu Mu Bai and said, "I must thank you for the great gift."

Liu Mu Bai's eyes narrowed slightly and said, "You have great fortune and a long life."

Mu Chen smiled, a smile that made Liu Ming even more furious.

"Ha, Mu Feng, you have a good son indeed," Liu Qingtian also glanced at Mu Chen, clearly knowing that the main reason for the Mu Domain's presence here was because of Mu Chen.

Mu Feng looked at Liu Qingtian coldly and said, "Your Liu Domain is greedy. Good things should be shared, not monopolized."

"Wanting a piece of everything, your Mu Domain isn't afraid of being overfilled?" Liu Zong, beside Liu Qingtian, looked at Mu Feng and his group coldly.

"Monopolizing might make you overfilled more easily," Zhou Ye also sneered.

Liu Zong also laughed coldly, "If all your Mu Domain's elite are wiped out here, then your territory will be ruled by our Liu Domain."

"Be afraid if you don't have the ability!" Zhou Ye said slowly.

Neither side spoke further, but the coldness in their gazes intensified, and spiritual energy fluctuations quietly surged. A bloody battle seemed imminent.

Mu Chen, sensing the tense atmosphere, quietly circulated his spiritual energy. Just as he was preparing, his ears suddenly twitched, and his eyes looked deeper into the darkness of the Black Abyss, where some strange sounds seemed to be coming from.

Buzz.

Hearing this buzzing sound, Mu Chen was initially stunned, then his face changed dramatically.
