Chapter 244 The Innate One
A doomsday scene before our eyes.
A huge storm in the sky that has lasted for an unknown amount of time is sweeping across the entire area.
The black clouds that covered the sky were so thick that they were stirred by the storm and turned into giant black cyclones in the sky!
Thunder and lightning flashes rumbled in it from time to time, as if thunder dragons were active on it.
Below, a huge ravine opened in the wasteland, bottomless!
That crazy and disordered energy spurted out from this ravine, driving this black cloud storm in the sky, lingering day after day, month after month, year after year!
Undoubtedly, this huge ravine that stretches for countless miles is the bottomless abyss mentioned in ancient books!
"After crossing here, you can go to Guyuan Kingdom." Elder Lu from the Corpse Refining Sect beside him said.
"How to cross over?" Song Changming asked.
The length of this abyss is currently unknown. According to the description in ancient books, there is no end and no way around it.
The only way to go is to cross it directly.
However, the other side of the abyss looks very far away, at least twenty or thirty miles away!
You can’t even see the end from the flat ground. You can only see it clearly by jumping up or standing on a high place and looking far away.
With such a wide distance, even someone as strong as Song Changming was helpless.
"It's impossible to get through. There is an extremely strong torrent of energy in the middle of the abyss. Even the birds in the sky can't get through it, even if they fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters!" Elder Lu quickly warned, fearing that he would be dragged away to be buried.
"In the past, people came from the Ancient Abyss Country from time to time. Since they can cross this abyss, it means that this road is feasible." Su Yaoguang said slowly.
Song Changming looked at Elder Lu and grinned, "You said you didn't want to tell me?"
Elder Lu trembled all over and said quickly: "I only know that in the Ancient Abyss Country, there are strong people who can cross the void, and even the torrent of energy erupted from the abyss cannot hurt them.
These strong men can come and go freely, and can even take people back and forth."
"Do you have such a strong person in your Corpse Refining Sect?" Song Changming suddenly asked after hearing this.
"It won't happen. If it were the Corpse Refining Sect in Gu Yuan, there would be those innate ones." Before Elder Lu could speak, Nan Wuji answered Song Changming's question first.
"Innate One." Song Changming seemed to have read this word in those ancient books.
But there is no detailed description, and it is often just a brushstroke.
And the meaning of Nan Wuji's words is that those strong men who can cross the void are innate ones!
“Beyond Qi refining, there is innateness, but in this world, not to mention innateness, even the Qi refining realm is difficult to perfect, so those innate ones cannot stay in this world for a long time, and no innate warriors can be born in this world! " Nan Wuji said slowly.
He also read these secrets from the ancient books in his sword cliff, which contained detailed records of the innate realm.
This is also the reason why he must go to the Ancient Yuan Kingdom. Only there can he pursue the innate way!
"Apart from this, is there any other way?" Song Changming frowned.
Innate ones are so hard to find. Without innate ones, would it be impossible to survive?
Song Changming thought of Su Qingqing. Could it be that she was also led through this abyss by an innate warrior.
"Yes, there is Longmen Ridge outside this abyss. Every five years, some people from the sects of the Ancient Abyss Kingdom will come to recruit disciples.
If you have qualifications and talents and are chosen by them, you will be able to leap over the dragon gate. You don’t need to worry about it, and you will be taken to Guyuan Kingdom. "Elder Lu once again revealed a useful piece of information.
"After all, do we still need to rely on the strength of others?" Song Changming shook his head.
"Is there any other way?"
"This." Elder Lu was speechless for a moment.
It would be good if he knew these things, but how could he know other ways to cross the abyss.
Or maybe there is no other way.
If you don't enter the innate world, your efforts will be in vain and it will be difficult to cross this abyss.
"You might as well go to Longmen Ridge first." Su Yaoguang thought for a while and said.
"There's no rush. Now that I'm here, let me try it out first." Nan Wuji stared at the abyss here and held out eight red swords.
Elder Lu on the side was shocked when he saw the red sword.
He had been defeated by Nan Wuji's Crimson Sword before, and he was somewhat frightened when he saw the Crimson Sword again.
Nan Wuji stepped on the red sword, soared into the sky, and headed towards the abyss.
He wanted to see how big the gap was between himself and the innate warriors, and whether the abyss was really so sad!
"Don't." He was so bold and decisive that Song Changming's eyelids jumped and he didn't even have time to dissuade him.
He could sense the huge energy turbulence in the abyss, and Nan Wuji pounced on it without hesitation. In his opinion, this was no different than seeking death.
"He's too impulsive"
Even Su Yaoguang on the side sighed and said.
Elder Lu, on the other hand, was overjoyed and silently prayed that Nan Wuji would be trapped in it and not come back alive again. Song Changming's eyes were fixed on Nan Wuji, which was flying higher and higher, almost touching the black clouds pressing above.
Compared with the huge abyss, Nanwuji in the sky is as small as a grain of dust.
Although he was very cautious and did not fly very fast when he stepped on the sword energy, he still approached the center of the abyss in a short while and touched the released space turbulence, which seemed to be endless.
Soon, under Song Changming's gaze, Nan Wuji's originally stable figure immediately became unstable after coming into contact with the turbulent flow in the space.
The crimson sword energy under his feet only lasted for less than a second before being directly impacted by the turbulent flow of space and disintegrated.
Fortunately, Nan Wuji reacted quickly and immediately controlled the second red sword energy to fall to his feet, stabilizing his figure and not being pulled into the abyss below.
But soon, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, the second crimson sword energy collapsed again.
Nan Wuji immediately summoned the third scarlet sword and retreated without hesitation.
It was only after the six red swords were destroyed that Nan Wuji completely escaped the devouring power of the abyss and retreated to Song Changming's location in a slightly embarrassed state.
Facts have proved that this abyss cannot be passed by ordinary Qi-refining warriors.
"Even if the Qi refining is complete, I'm afraid it will still be difficult." Nan Wuji took a breath and said.
"Let's go to Longmen Ridge."
As soon as Nan Wuji finished speaking, Song Changming suddenly looked towards the deep and bottomless abyss.
He just vaguely heard some noise coming from below, as if something was approaching them!
Nan Wuji and Su Yaoguang soon noticed.
The three of them looked at each other and quickly backed away without hesitation.
The next moment, a rather deformed creature climbed up against the abyss rock wall.
Jump high and then fall with a crash.
Song Changming could tell at a glance that it was a fog beast.
It has white eyes, a ferocious head with exposed skull, and its back, a sword-like spine that connects from head to tail.
The entire tail is also segmented like this, completely made of its bones. Each segment is like a blade, looking extremely sharp.
It also has six limbs, two relatively thick ones are feet, and four relatively slender ones are arms.
When it landed, it leaned over and moved forward on all six limbs. When it approached Song Changming and the others, it slowly straightened up again, its four arms spreading its teeth and claws.
"What kind of monster is this?!" Song Changming was a little surprised.
Although most of the mist beasts he encountered in the past were strange in shape, he could still recognize their similarities with some kind of ferocious beast.
The fog beast in front of me has no characteristics that resemble some kind of ferocious beast.
I can't name it, but the word "monster" is more suitable for it.
If he had to say what kind of creature it looked like, Song Changming only felt that it looked a bit like a mutated person.
The tongue, which was as long as a black snake and flicked around, looked at Song Changming and the three people in front of them, as if they were seeing something delicious, and it was dripping with liquid.
At this time, when the elder of the Corpse Refining Sect looked at the monster that appeared, his color changed suddenly.
"Glutton!"
As he said that, he wanted to turn around and run away regardless.
However, the black tongue suddenly popped out, shooting out like a frog, stretching more than ten meters in an instant, piercing Elder Lu's back, and then exiting his chest.
At this moment, Nan Wuji and Su Yaoguang frowned.
The speed was so fast that they didn't even have time to make a move, so they could only let the elder of the Corpse Refining Sect be violently hit by the tongue. They saw that they could not survive, and their guide was gone.
"Help, save me." Elder Lu desperately asked for help from the three people.
The black tongue was covered with long barbs, and once it was fixed, it wanted to drag Elder Lu back.
Song Changming got closer, stretched out his hand suddenly, and grabbed Elder Lu's body.
But the result was that his body was split into two and he died on the spot.
The gluttonous beast chewed half of Elder Lu's flesh and blood, and seemed to like the warrior's body quite a bit.
The next moment, its black tongue aimed at Song Changming again and popped out.
Song Changming felt a sense of crisis arise spontaneously, like needles pricking his body.
