On the second evening, as the twilight descended, Luli broke through the ninth realm of the Pulse Connection Stage. Rising from his cultivation, the white deer, which had been cultivating nearby, also stood up. The duo stood there, gazing at the valley where they had practiced for over a week.
Luli walked towards the exit of the valley, intending to traverse the vast Tianmang Mountain and return to Donglin City. It had been a considerable amount of time since he left Donglin City, and it was time to return.
Just as Luli stepped out of the valley, a bright flash erupted in the eastern sky, illuminating the surrounding mountains. The radiance spread across half of Tianmang Mountain, as if a dazzling sun had suddenly risen in the night sky.
Luli gazed at the brilliance, resembling the radiant thunder in the dazzling dawn of the eastern horizon. The intense light persisted for several minutes before gradually dimming and eventually dissipating.
"What's happening? Where did the flash come from?"
"It seems to be in the direction of the Abyss of Demonic Beasts!"
The white deer, too, stared at the fading light. Its face betrayed an unmistakable fear. Speaking in human language, the trembling voice of the white deer reached Luli's ears.
Observing the trembling deer, Luli noticed the genuine fear in its body.
"The Abyss of Demonic Beasts? What is that place?"
"It's the most terrifying place in Tianmang Mountain, Master. We should leave quickly! Never approach that place!"
The white deer, using its small crystal-clear antlers, urged Luli to depart swiftly, warning him not to go near the Abyss of Demonic Beasts, even for a step.
Luli looked at the white deer, and its body was visibly trembling. The more it trembled, the more intense its fear became. Obviously, the Abyss of Demonic Beasts was a terrifying place for the deer.
"You are very afraid of that place!"
Luli patted the deer's head, holding one of its crystal-clear antlers, preventing the white deer from using them to lift him.
"That is the Abyss of Demonic Beasts, where demonic beasts fall. Typically, any demonic beast that ventures into it never returns alive!"
"Oh, interesting. As long as a demonic beast enters the valley, it cannot escape. That is intriguing."
Luli, facing the direction of the Abyss of Demonic Beasts, took a step. The white deer suddenly jumped in front of him, lowered its head, and pressed its crystal-clear antlers against Luli.
"Master, that place is too dangerous. Please don't go!"
"I am just going to the edge of the Abyss of Demonic Beasts to take a look, not entering!"
"Even at the edge of the Abyss, Master, you shouldn't go there. There's nothing interesting there!"
The white deer resisted, showing a deep-seated fear for the Abyss of Demonic Beasts.
"I had the best companions, my tribe members, who mistakenly entered the Abyss of Demonic Beasts and never came out again!"
The white deer spoke anxiously. Luli patted the white deer and moved its head aside. The deer directly used its mouth to grab Luli's clothes, pulling him with all its might.
At that moment, another beam of light shot up from the direction of the Abyss of Demonic Beasts, illuminating the sky and trembling the ground. Luli felt as if there was a monstrous evil creature buried beneath the earth, about to break free.
Seeing the terrified expression of the white deer, Luli directly stored it in the Pet Card. If he didn't, the white deer might be scared to the point of kneeling with legs trembling. What a timid deer.
At that moment, within a hundred meters of Luli, a wild roar echoed. A gigantic exploding bear, over four meters tall, leaped out from the woods. The bear faced the direction of the Abyss, roaring wildly and pounding its chest with its powerful bear paws.
This was a Godly Transformation Realm-level bear, choosing not to transform into a human form but venting its anger towards the Abyss of Demonic Beasts by pounding its chest.
Wait, isn't chest-pounding a gorilla's signature move? This exploding bear actually stole someone else's signature move.
As the light faded away, the enraged bear suddenly locked eyes with Luli. Despite being a Godly Transformation Realm eighth stage demonic beast, the Red Sleeve Blade in Luli's hand no longer intimidated it.
The exploding bear roared twice at Luli and then completely ignored him. With its four claws on the ground, it rushed towards the Abyss of Demonic Beasts.
The white deer's legs were trembling, and it could only stand steadily after the bear ran far away. The pressure from a high-level demonic beast was overwhelming, making lower-level demonic beasts unable to resist. Even though the white deer was already a pet and had swallowed a Demonic Beast Reconstruction Pill, if it hadn't, it might have already collapsed on all fours, rolling in fear.
"Let's go. We're going to the Abyss of Demonic Beasts!"
While the white deer wanted to stop Luli, he had already moved away. The white deer could only follow.
As Luli approached the Abyss of Demonic Beasts, every so often, a powerful light would illuminate the heavens and the earth. Along the way, he also saw several powerful demonic beings heading towards the Abyss of Demonic Beasts.
With such a strong light, it was evident that something significant had happened at the Abyss.
Could that be a treasure? Even though these demonic beasts knew that the Abyss of Demonic Beasts was a dangerous place, they disregarded everything and rushed towards it. Clearly, something major was occurring at the Abyss.
As Luli got closer to the Abyss, he saw more and more powerful demonic beings. From their emanating auras, they were overwhelmingly strong.
Luli was sure that most of the demonic beasts here couldn't be deterred even by his Red Sleeve Blade.
At this moment, these demonic beasts were all heading towards the Abyss of Demonic Beasts. There was no indiscriminate fighting among them. Even if they were mortal enemies before, they all stared in the direction of the Abyss.
Luli blended in with the crowd of demonic beings, not attracting much attention. Finally, Luli arrived at the side of the Abyss of Demonic Beasts.
As Luli looked towards the Abyss, a look of shock and disbelief appeared in his eyes.
Luli couldn't believe what he saw at the Abyss of Demonic Beasts. This was impossible; it couldn't be. This valley, extending for who knows how many miles, was actually a sword scar.
A breathtaking, terrifying sword scar.
With Luli's proficiency in blades, just one glance at the Abyss of Demonic Beasts allowed him to determine that it was, in fact, a colossal sword scar. A scar that had sliced through countless mountain ranges.
