Chapter 2359: Passage (1)
The Primordial God Forsaken Land remained untouched. What happened in the outside world had nothing to do with this place. It was still tranquil and shrouded in mystery.
Yue Yun dragged Yue Chuntao along and continued to venture deep into the forsaken land, with Yun Lintian following closely behind.
"Where are we going?" Yue Chuntao asked. Although this was the first time she had met Yue Yun, she could feel a sense of familiarity from her. Perhaps it was because both of them carried the moon energy. And judging by the strength Yue Yun had displayed previously, it was clear that she had a deep connection with the Divine Moon Clan.
"I want to confirm something," Yue Yun responded casually.
"Oh." Yue Chuntao nodded and said nothing more.
Yun Lintian scanned the surroundings from time to time and felt there was something different here, but he couldn't pinpoint it.
"Use the Eyes of Heaven," Yue Yun turned to look at him, and her eyes turned golden. Yun Lintian was taken aback. "How did you...?"
It was clear that Yue Yun could also use the Eyes of Heaven, which was supposed to be exclusive to the Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture. What was going on here?
"Just use it," Yue Yun rolled her eyes annoyingly.
Yun Lintian put the doubt aside and activated the Eyes of Heaven. Soon, he saw the flow of energy rushing in the same direction towards the depths of the forsaken land. It was as if it was being absorbed by something.
"Have you seen it?" Yue Yun asked.
"Yeah," Yun Lintian responded.
"This should be the main reason the Primal Chaos has regressed," Yue Yun said calmly. "Clearly, something is taking the energy away. Have you noticed it before?"
Yun Lintian shook his head. "I'm not sure. The last time I came here, there was nothing strange about it. Perhaps I overlooked it."
He recalled the last time he visited this place and didn't seem to encounter such a situation. After all, he had scanned the place with the Eyes of Heaven many times back then. If there were something, he would have noticed it a long time ago.
"Maybe someone didn't want you to know about it," Yue Yun curled her lips. Yun Wushuang's figure appeared in her mind. Who else could it be if it wasn't her?
After traveling for an hour, the three finally arrived at the bottomless abyss where the Beyond Heaven King and the others were supposed to have disappeared.
Through the Eyes of Heaven, Yun Lintian could see that a large amount of divine energy was being sucked into the abyss. It came from all directions.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Could it be flowing to the outside world?" Yue Chuntao said in doubt. According to Dao Ling's words, this place should be a tunnel to the world beyond the Primal Chaos Wall.
"It isn't that simple," Yue Yun said solemnly. "Let's take a look."
Without hesitation, she wrapped everyone in moonlight and jumped into the abyss. The abyss seemed truly bottomless. The three of them fell endlessly, Yue Yun's moonlight acting as a protective cocoon around them. As they descended, the darkness gave way to a strange, ethereal light. The walls of the abyss weren't solid rock, but something closer to swirling clouds of energy.
"Look out." Yun Lintian said as they suddenly encountered a pocket of spatial turbulence. The energy around them warped and twisted, threatening to tear them apart.
Yue Yun, unfazed, simply extended her hand. The moonlight around them solidified, pushing back against the turbulent energy. With a gentle hum, she guided them safely through the turbulence.
"Amazing," Yue Chuntao gasped, her eyes wide with awe. She was certain that she couldn't have resisted the turbulence with her current strength.
Yue Yun merely smiled. "This is nothing."
Their descent continued, and they soon encountered their first obstacle - a colossal serpent, its scales shimmering with a multitude of colors. Its eyes, glowing with an intense, primordial light, locked onto them.
"A god-level Profound Beast?" Yue Chuntao was shocked.
"HISS!!" The serpent roared, its voice echoing through the abyss. It lunged forward, its massive jaws opening wide, ready to swallow them whole.
Yue Yun, however, didn't even blink. She raised her hand, and a beam of pure moonlight shot out, piercing through the serpent's head. The beast's roar turned into a gurgle as it dissolved into motes of light.
"That was... too easy," Yue Chuntao stammered.
Yue Yun shrugged. "It's just a beast."
Their journey continued, and they encountered more and more God-level Profound Beasts. Each one was more powerful than the last, but none could withstand even a single attack from Yue Yun. They were like ants before a giant.
Yue Chuntao could only watch in awe. This was the true power of the Moon God. Yue Yun was beyond anything she had ever imagined.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, they reached the bottom of the abyss. The scene that greeted them was breathtaking.
They found themselves in a vast, underground world. The sky above was a swirling vortex of energy, the source of the ethereal light they had seen earlier. The ground was covered in lush vegetation, unlike anything they had seen in the Primordial God Forsaken Land.
And in the center of it all stood a massive tree, its branches reaching towards the energy vortex. Its leaves were a shimmering silver, and its trunk glowed with a soft, golden light. "The World Tree," Yun Lintian said, shocked. He could recognize it right away because it exuded a similar aura to the one in Ning Yue's body.
"So this is where the energy is going," Yue Yun murmured.
The World Tree was indeed absorbing the energy from the Primal Chaos. It was growing stronger with each passing moment, but its appearance was weakening. Its once vibrant leaves were now dull and lifeless, and the golden light emanating from its trunk was
flickering.
"It's being used," Yue Yun stated, her voice grave. "Someone clearly placed it here."
Yun Lintian's eyes narrowed. "To block the passage?"
Yue Yun nodded. "Most likely. I suspect that whoever placed the tree here must have been the first to notice this passage, and it was their only choice to block the outlaws from coming in."
She paused for a moment and continued. "Well, clearly, it doesn't work. It can only be used to buy as much time as possible."
Yun Lintian frowned deeply. He slowly approached the World Tree, and the surrounding turbulence immediately grew stronger.
Yun Lintian narrowed his eyes and unleashed his spatial power, trying to control the
environment.
