Zhao Shuo didn't expect the old man to be so easy to talk to, and he happily said, "May I ask, Senior, is there really a passage to leave the Death Island at the bottom of the Falling God Abyss?"
Upon hearing this, a sharp light flashed in the old man's eyes. His wise gaze fixed intently on Zhao Shuo, and in that brief moment, Zhao Shuo felt as if the old man had completely seen through him, as if he had no secrets before him.
Fortunately, that feeling lasted only an instant. When the old man's wise gaze became hazy, the uncomfortable feeling disappeared.
Thinking the old man wouldn't answer, Zhao Shuo was about to leave with Bai Jianjia when he suddenly heard the old man's voice, "The Falling God Abyss is both a path to life and death. If you break through, you live; if you don't, you die!"
Zhao Shuo was overjoyed upon hearing this. This undoubtedly told him that there was indeed a passage leading out of the Death Island at the bottom of the Falling God Abyss, though it would certainly be fraught with danger.
He bowed again to the old man, who had already vanished. This time, without the disturbance of the skeleton guards, although they needed to cross a restricted area to leave the Falling God Abyss, the two of them, protected by magical treasures, safely left the restricted area.
When the oppressive feeling on their bodies disappeared, the two of them couldn't help but sigh in relief.
What appeared before them was a desolate mountain range. Even the sparse trees on the mountains looked lifeless, making it seem like they had entered a ghostly realm compared to the Nine Flowers Secret Realm.
After checking the surroundings and confirming there was no immediate danger, Zhao Shuo frowned and said, "I wonder where we are and if there are any dangers here."
Bai Jianjia shook her head and said, "Since I entered the Death Island, I've only stayed in a small area. I've never been here before, and I've only heard about the Falling God Abyss occasionally."
A strange cry suddenly caught their attention.
Following the direction of the sound, they saw a disheveled person emitting strange cries, with a bone beast resembling a wild boar chasing after him at high speed.
However, the person's reaction was extremely quick, using the terrain like a mole to always avoid the bone beast at the last moment.
When the person approached a flat area, he suddenly leaped over it and shouted loudly, "Damn, big brother, the bone beast is coming, get ready to act!"
As he spoke, the large bone beast plunged into a huge pit in the ground, its tough bones almost shattering.
At the same time, a figure rushed out from behind a rock, his fists glowing with light, surrounded by a powerful aura, clearly indicating he had reached the peak of the Body Tempering stage.
When the fist struck the bone beast, it struggled for a moment and then became a pile of broken bones. The person who had lured the bone beast jumped into the pit, searched for a while, and finally found a Spirit Essence Pill.
He laughed and said, "Big brother, it's your turn to lure the bone beast this time. After I absorb this pill, I'll hunt another one."
The person called "big brother" jumped out and said, "Sure, after you absorb this pill, you'll be close to the Core Formation stage. Next time, you can lure a slightly stronger bone beast."
When Zhao Shuo saw the two clearly, his face showed shock and joy, and his hand holding Bai Jianjia's trembled slightly.
Bai Jianjia noticed Zhao Shuo's unusual state and said, "Zhao Shuo, could these two brothers be the Jing Bubsi and Jing Bumei you mentioned?"
Zhao Shuo nodded happily and appeared in front of the two brothers, laughing excitedly, "Jing Bubsi, Jing Bumei, you two brats are still alive, that's great!"
Jing Bubsi and Jing Bumei were stunned to see Zhao Shuo suddenly appear before them. They looked at each other in disbelief, pinched each other, and then jumped and shouted, "It's not a dream, it's really not a dream!"
Zhao Shuo punched them and said, "Of course it's not a dream."
Jing Bubsi and Jing Bumei were just teenagers, and although they had matured a lot after three years of life-and-death trials, they still couldn't help but cry when they saw Zhao Shuo.
After a while, the brothers calmed down. Zhao Shuo introduced Bai Jianjia to them, and the two called her "Young Lady," which made Bai Jianjia blush.
Smiling, Zhao Shuo said to them, "You two have reached the peak of Body Tempering. It seems you've worked hard these past few years."
Hearing this, the two brothers couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Don't mock us, big brother. We're only at the peak of Body Tempering, and we can't save Sister Qingyi!"
Zhao Shuo's face showed shock, "What, you have news of Jing Qingyi? Tell me, where is she now?"
Jing Bubsi said, "After we were separated from you, we ended up in this place. Fortunately, Bumei and I are twin brothers with a certain telepathic connection, and we finally found each other. We searched for thousands of miles but couldn't find you or Sister Qingyi. We discovered that we couldn't absorb the elemental energy here, making it impossible to cultivate. One day, we accidentally saw a group of people hunting bone beasts and extracting a kind of pill from their bones, using the energy in the pills to cultivate. So, we carefully hunted bone beasts and extracted the pills to cultivate."
Although Jing Bubsi spoke simply, Zhao Shuo could imagine how difficult it must have been for them to survive and cultivate to their current level, given their initial weak cultivation.
Jing Bumei continued, "Half a year ago, we accidentally learned that five thousand miles away, there is a Qingfeng Mountain. A group of people gather there, often capturing lone cultivators. Men are used as cannon fodder to lure bone beasts, and women are used for humiliation. Among those captured, there seems to be Sister Qingyi."
Zhao Shuo couldn't help but roar in anger, "What, Jing Qingyi has fallen into the hands of these villains?"
Seeing Zhao Shuo's anger, Jing Bubsi quickly said, "Don't worry, big brother. Sister Qingyi is quite beautiful, and they say she has been kept to be presented to their leader."
Zhao Shuo asked in confusion, "Leader? Who is he?"
Jing Bubsi said, "They say he's a dwarf, but the people on Qingfeng Mountain call him Lord Li."
Hearing this, Bai Jianjia and Zhao Shuo exchanged a glance, and Zhao Shuo's lips curled into a cold smile, "I never thought the one who captured Qingyi would be Li the Dwarf. It seems our paths are truly fated to cross."
Seeing that Zhao Shuo seemed to know the leader of Qingfeng Mountain, Jing Bubsi asked in confusion, "Big brother, do you know this Lord Li?"
Zhao Shuo said with disdain, "Not just know, I've been fighting him for nearly two years with Jianjia. I never thought he would be so persistent. It seems we need to settle this once and for all."
Feeling relieved, but soon showing concern, the brothers said, "Don't worry, the cultivation of Li the Dwarf is not weak, but it won't be easy for him to catch us. We'll see who is stronger in the end."
Seeing Zhao Shuo's confidence, the two brothers sighed in relief. After all, if Zhao Shuo were to get hurt because of Jing Qingyi, it wouldn't be what they wanted.
