Chapter 79

Bai Jianjia nodded and looked at the Yenshen Abyss shrouded in mist, saying, "Indeed, even Daoist Lord-level experts who enter the Yenshen Abyss never return. However, many people speculate that the Yenshen Abyss might be the exit from the Death Island. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible for even Daoist Lord-level experts to never return."

Zhao Shuo frowned and looked at the bone beasts crawling out of the deep valley, saying, "That's not impossible!"

Bai Jianjia said, "Unfortunately, no cultivator who has entered the Yenshen Abyss has ever been seen to come out. So everyone is just speculating. Almost no one dares to risk their life. If the Yenshen Abyss is not an exit but a true dead end, wouldn't that be seeking death?"

Zhao Shuo looked at the bone beasts and skeletons surrounding them and said, "Our luck isn't too bad. At least we weren't directly teleported into the Yenshen Abyss."

Bai Jianjia put away the Yin-Yang Naihe Bridge and summoned the Oriental Green Dragon Seal. The massive green dragon seal fiercely smashed down on the bone beasts and skeletons.

Amidst the dust, at least dozens of bone beasts were crushed into ashes, showing that the peak-strength Bai Jianjia had no problem dealing with these bone beasts.

When the green dragon seal was retracted, Zhao Shuo's face showed surprise, saying, "Hmm, these skeletons are actually so powerful!"

The scene before them was shocking: three skeletons were fiercely smashed into the ground. When the green dragon seal was retracted, the three skeletons slowly crawled out of the ground.

Seeing this, Bai Jianjia once again fiercely smashed down with the Oriental Green Dragon Seal, but apart from smashing the three skeletons into the ground, she didn't injure them at all.

Suddenly, Zhao Shuo summoned a pagoda to block in front of Bai Jianjia. A skeleton fiercely threw an arm, and the arm, glowing with a sinister black light, reached out to grab Bai Jianjia.

With a loud boom, the pagoda was retracted, but the skeleton's arm was unharmed, flying back and snapping back onto the skeleton's shoulder with a crack.

However, the three skeletons had already crawled out of the ground, their eye sockets glowing with eerie light, surrounding the two of them.

Zhao Shuo and Bai Jianjia were on high alert. These skeletons were strange; even using innate magical treasures couldn't injure them. Bai Jianjia's Oriental Green Dragon Seal was an offensive innate magical treasure, yet it couldn't harm the skeletons, which was hard to believe.

The three skeletons held dark weapons. When they raised their weapons to smash down, the dark weapons, which seemed ordinary, could faintly cut through the void. It was unknown whether it was the skeletons' strength or the weapons' magical effects.

For a moment, the two couldn't deal with the three skeletons and could only summon their magical treasures to block, resulting in a stalemate.

They repeatedly smashed the skeletons down, but the skeletons were impervious to blades and swords. As more bone beasts and skeletons crawled out of the Yenshen Abyss, the skeletons they eliminated increased to seven.

Gradually, the two found it hard to hold on, not because of a lack of magical power. After all, they had obtained many treasures from the Jiuhua Secret Realm and had plenty of items to replenish their magical power. However, the pressure of seven skeletons attacking simultaneously was too much for them to bear for long.

They had thought about escaping, but for some reason, their speed would suddenly slow down when they left the Yenshen Abyss by a few miles, as if an invisible force was restraining them.

They tried once and almost lost their lives to the skeletons. The skeletons were still agile, while their reaction speed slowed down many times. If they hadn't quickly returned to the vicinity of the Yenshen Abyss, they would have been killed by the skeletons.

"Damn it, what the hell are these skeletons? How can they be so tough!"

Zhao Shuo once again smashed the skeletons back, cursing loudly.

"Ha ha, little brats, these are just black skeleton guards. If they were white skeleton generals or jade skeleton kings, you two would be dead already!"

A mocking voice suddenly came from all around, indistinct and impossible for Zhao Shuo and Bai Jianjia to pinpoint.

Tightening, Zhao Shuo took a deep breath and respectfully said, "This junior, Zhao Shuo, and my fiancée, Bai Jianjia, pay respects to the senior. Please show yourself."

Hearing Zhao Shuo call her his fiancée, Bai Jianjia's face flushed, but she didn't contradict him, appearing somewhat uneasy.

Zhao Shuo seemed to notice Bai Jianjia's thoughts and reached out to hold her smooth hand, calming her nervousness.

As Zhao Shuo's words fell, several crystal-clear beads flew over and struck the skeleton guards.

To Bai Jianjia and Zhao Shuo's surprise, the skeleton guards, which they couldn't harm no matter how they hit them, were now enveloped in a green light. Wherever the green light covered, black mist emanated from the skeletons, and the black mist and green light neutralized each other. When the black skeletons turned completely white, they crumbled into a pile of bones.

Zhao Shuo blinked, looking at the pile of bones in disbelief. Not long ago, these skeletons had them completely stumped, but now they were scattered on the ground.

"Essence Core Pills, they are actually Essence Core Pills!"

Zhao Shuo immediately recognized the beads that flew out. They were the Essence Core Pills left behind by the bone beasts. He never thought that the Essence Core Pills could counter these skeleton guards.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Shuo bowed to an old man with white hair who had appeared on a nearby rock, saying, "Thank you, senior."

The old man waved his hand, and the dark weapons used by the black skeletons flew into his hands.

The old man nodded in satisfaction, put away the weapons, and said to Zhao Shuo and Bai Jianjia, "You two are quite bold, daring to enter the Yenshen Abyss without knowing anything. Aren't you afraid of death?"

Zhao Shuo coughed and said awkwardly, "Senior, please forgive us. We were being pursued and accidentally entered here. Later, we discovered it was the Yenshen Abyss and were trapped by these black skeletons when we tried to leave."

The old man nodded and said, "I see. You two are lucky. I happened to be here collecting Netherworld Black Iron. Now that there's no danger, leave quickly."

Zhao Shuo looked at the old man and said, "May I ask the senior's name so we can remember your kindness?"

The old man waved his hand and said, "I am nameless. Saving you was just a small effort. Leave quickly. If the skeleton generals and skeleton kings come out, even I can't protect you."

Zhao Shuo bowed deeply and said, "I boldly ask the senior a question."

The old man looked at Zhao Shuo and said, "Go ahead."

Zhao Shuo, surprised by the old man's willingness, said happily, "May I ask, senior, is there really a passage to leave the Death Island at the bottom of the Yenshen Abyss?"

Sweat, I was supposed to go public at the beginning of the month, and I had prepared 200,000 words. Unfortunately, the collection numbers weren't ideal, so I'll release a few more public chapters. If you can, please collect. Once the collection numbers go up, I'll have a big release, at least 250,000 to 300,000 words. Let the collections come in more fiercely.
