At this moment, at the Entrance to the Abyss of the Buried Gods, two Spirit Vessels, each three hundred zhang long, floated in the sky over a distance of ten thousand miles to the east.
On one of the Spirit Vessels, 913 disciples from the eternal immortal sect, led by Ru Yan Chen, stood with serious expressions.
On the other Spirit Vessel, a calm presence exuded.
Nangong Yuqin stood gracefully at the forefront of the Spirit Vessel.
At that moment, everyone gazed at the azure mirror floating above them: the medium-grade sub-respect artifact—Mirror of Infinite Void!
Once activated, this mirror could penetrate the void and reveal scenes from a distance of ten thousand miles!
Before the trial, Zhuge Yu had given this mirror to Nangong Yuqin for emergencies.
Through the mirror, everyone could see the scenes outside the Abyss of the Buried Gods. The reason for the distance was naturally to prevent any powerful demon beasts from guarding the entrance.
At the same time, within the Abyss of the Buried Gods.
"Shasha..."
In the fog-filled abyss, faint footsteps echoed into the ears of Tan Yun and others in the ravine.
Tan Yun used his finger to write on the wall of the ravine, "No one shall act without my command!"
Seeing Tan Yun's repeated reminders, everyone nodded silently.
They're getting closer!
Very close!
From the sound of footsteps, Tan Yun determined that two enemies had stopped less than a zhang away from where he was hiding!
"Primordial Divine Eye!"
Tan Yun's deep pupils suddenly shone with an eerie red light as he remained concealed in the ravine.
At this moment, two disciples from the eternal immortal sect, one tall and one short, looked nervously at the ravine just a zhang away; they exchanged anxious glances and then leaped into the air, holding a talisman in their left hand and tightly gripping a long sword in their right!
Upon discovering the group in the ravine, Tan Yun suddenly raised his head, his eerie pupils locking onto the two.
Instantly, the two seemed dazed, and Tan Yun's lips moved, his voice threading into their ears, "Come down!"
"Swish, swish!"
The two entered the ravine, appearing before Tan Yun. This scene startled Huangfu Tingfeng, Lu Ren, and others, yet Tan Yun made a gesture for silence.
To prevent alarming the enemy, Tan Yun wrote on the ground, "Write down the purpose of your visit."
Following that, the two quickly scribbled a line of text in the ravine.
Though their handwriting differed, the meaning was the same.
They indicated that they, along with forty others, were ordered to come here by the saintess and young master. Meanwhile, Nangong Yuqin and Ru Yan Chen were observing the entrance to the Abyss of the Buried Gods from ten thousand miles away through the Mirror of Infinite Void.
Tan Yun's lips curled slightly as he immediately wrote, "Later, you will inform Nangong Yuqin and Ru Yan Chen that there is nothing unusual here."
"We only found many corpses of Huangfu Sacred Sect disciples inside the Abyss of the Buried Gods, along with traces left by a large unknown demon beast."
"Also, tell Nangong Yuqin and Ru Yan Chen that there are pools of blood that do not belong to humans, likely from demon beasts that killed the disciples of the divine soul celestial palace, eternal immortal sect, and Huangfu Sacred Sect before fleeing with serious injuries."
"Alright, you may go. Also, you will regain your memories in half a month and forget what happened today."
The two nodded, darted out of the ravine, and, along with eighteen others, proceeded deeper into the twenty-mile-wide entrance of the abyss.
In their hearts, the content of Tan Yun's instructions felt as if they had witnessed it firsthand.
...
Half an hour later, the twenty soared out of the Abyss of the Buried Gods on their flying swords.
The twenty waiting outside the abyss eagerly asked, "So, what did you find?"
"Nothing," the eighteen responded, shaking their heads.
At this moment, the tall and short disciples from the eternal immortal sect looked terrified and said, "We found something unusual, everyone follow me to report back to the young master and saintess!"
