The Abyss

Chapter 302: The Abyss of the Dark Valley

"A ship? Could it be a ship from Worry-Free Township?"

Qin Mu was a little excited. The other huge ship that the village chief and his friends had found had been destroyed and could not go to Wuyou Township. If this ship was from Wuyou Township, couldn't he use it to return to his hometown?

Two white bats were leading the way. They had strange temperaments and flew silently. If Qin Mu was not careful, he could not see where they went. However, the next moment, he heard a few rustling sounds, and the two white bats hung upside down from the trees or cliffs, and then flapped their wings and flew away silently.

The life in this dark valley is extremely strange, and their means of attack are also very weird, but the two white bats are the guardians here, and they know everything here. With them leading the way, Qin Mu has no danger along the way.

Sometimes the two brothers would capture strange creatures in the Dark Valley and eat them.

"Hey, my luck is unstoppable. I actually encountered a moth-eater!"

Qin Mu saw the two brothers fly over a lake, then dive into the water, and drag out a huge creature from the lake. It was a hexagonal insect with strange hexagonal patterns on its body, which was very regular. It also had two large scissors in the front, which looked very powerful.

However, on its back, this strange insect carried white pupae eggs that were more than one meter tall. Some of the pupae eggs had already opened, like elongated eggs with a neat lid opened.

The strength of the moth was amazing. It didn't want to be cut by the two brothers, so they used their two big scissors to cut back and forth. The air was cut so hard that it made a thunderous sound. Lightning was squeezed out and swirled around the moth, which was very scary.

The borer also spewed out streams of venom, which fell on the ground and melted all the soil and rocks!

Qin Mu was horrified. The strength of this moth turtle was probably not much weaker than that of the dragon unicorn. Especially its venom was even more terrible and could dissolve everything!

The ability of Long Qilin is already strong enough, between the Seven-Star Realm and the Heavenly Man Realm, but the venom of this turtle is so toxic that even a master in the Heavenly Man Realm may not be able to withstand it. Of course, whether the venom can be sprayed on a master in the Heavenly Man Realm is still a question.

The two white bats were stronger. Fu Yuqiu emitted a sonic shock from his mouth, which directly stunned the moth turtle. Then the two brothers jumped onto the moth turtle's back and opened two pupae eggs, like opening the hatch of an eggshell.

The two white bats jumped in, groaned comfortably, and then waved to Qin Mu and Long Qilin: "Come in, come in quickly!"

Qin Mu hesitated for a moment, then jumped onto the back of the moth turtle with the dragon unicorn.

Fu Yuchun poked his furry head out of the pupa shell, like a mouse that had just grown hair. His ears trembled and he said, "Hurry up and find a pupa to hide in. This borer is about to wake up. This guy is a good swimmer and a king of the water. He can take us from the lake to the river and swim along the river to that deep pit! That's where his nest is!"

Qin Mu hesitated and asked, "Can't I just stand on its back?"

Fu Yuqiu said: "This guy is very alert, but he loves his children very much. He will not attack us if he hides in these pupae. If other things attack us, they will be killed by him."

Qin Mu looked at Long Qilin and asked, "Can you shrink your body?"

The dragon unicorn is huge in size, two meters smaller than the moth turtle. With its current size, it is definitely unable to hide in the cocoon.

Long Qilin snorted, shook his body, and slowly shrank in size: "Master, you underestimated me. After all, I was taught by the ancestors, and I can change my size as I wish."

He shrunk to the size of a big dog and couldn't shrink any further. He continued to practice his skills with his big belly. After holding it in for a while, he said hesitantly, "Master, do you think this will work?"

Qin Mu looked at the spherical creature, picked out the largest pupa, opened the lid, and tried to pick it up and stuff it in.

"It's been a long time since I was hugged by someone." Long Qilin said, reminiscing about the past.

Qin Mu squeezed his belly hard and pushed down, but the dragon unicorn was stuck. The piston could not go in or out, and half of its body was exposed.

Qin Mu was furious and put the eggshell-shaped white lid on Long Qilin's head: "Keep this position and don't move!"

Long Qilin held the cocoon shell on his back, not daring to move, and said pitifully: "Master, you won't reduce my food, will you? I'm still growing..."

Qin Mu also opened a cocoon and jumped in. The inside was like egg white. It was surprisingly comfortable to soak in it, as if he had taken a panacea.

He felt some fine energy drilling in from his pores, penetrating into his muscles, blood vessels, meridians, and internal organs, nourishing his body and skin.

Even more, these energies penetrated into his soul and nourished it!

Qin Mu was surprised, and tried to activate the Three Dan Techniques of Tyrant Body. He immediately felt more energy coming from the egg white-like liquid, making his soul increasingly stronger.

"This egg white is much better than any panacea. If I can keep hiding in it to practice, my soul will become extremely powerful!"

He looked at the other pupae eggs. Most of the pupae eggs on this borer were empty. It was probably because the borers inside had matured and shed their shells. There were still two or three immature pupae eggs left.

"Good stuff, I'll steal the pupae eggs when we get there!"

Just as he thought of this, the giant moth turtle woke up, shook its head, and then dived into the lake.

This lake is a tributary of one of the rivers in the valley. The moth turtle dived into the water, swam from the tributary into the main stream, and swam downstream to the confluence of the two rivers.

The river water was also very strange. There were all kinds of ghost life forms, including long worms with eyes all over their bodies, big fish covered with muscles but no scales, strange worms covered with tentacles with round mouths on the tops of the tentacles and full of hooks, and some glowing soul-like things floating around.

Qin Mu also saw some lotus flowers floating on the river. Some of the lotus flowers had withered and lotus pods had grown out. From the holes of the lotus pods, fat and white babies emerged. They were naked, dancing and giggling, looking pure and innocent.

Suddenly, one of the babies opened his mouth and swung out a tongue that was about twenty or seven feet long. It wrapped around a strange fish in the water. The tongue was hollow, and it sucked up all of the strange fish in an instant, leaving only the fish bones floating down to the bottom of the water.

The baby was full, and was dancing and giggling. Then a big bird flew over from the sky, pecked the baby up, and swallowed it up with its head tilted back.

"What kind of monsters are there in the world of Youdu!" Qin Mu was horrified.

Finally, the moth turtle brought them to the deep pit that the two white bats mentioned. It was more of an abyss than a deep pit. Two rivers converged and the water fell into the abyss from here, with a continuous roar like thunder.

Just as they were about to fall into the abyss with the moth turtle, the moth turtle suddenly surfaced, leaped into the air, and spread its two hard wings with a swish, and underneath the hard wings were soft wings.

The soft wings vibrated, as sharp as a blade, buzzing, and actually flew up and flew into the abyss.

Qin Mu and others threw it into the pupa eggs, and the pupa eggs were stuck to the hard wings. When the moth turtle flew, the hard wings did not move at all, only the soft wings flapped constantly.

Inside the pupa egg, Qin Mu looked around and saw some huge mushrooms hanging on the walls of the abyss, spraying spores outwards. Those spores actually glowed and swam in the air like dandelions.

Some strange fish and insects jumped out from the rushing waterfall to eat the glowing spores. As soon as they ate them, their bodies swelled up in mid-air, exploded with a bang, and big mushrooms grew out of their bodies.

Those mushrooms were very strange. They squeezed the lower bodies of these strange fish and insects until they burst, but the upper bodies were still intact. Moreover, the strange fish and insects were still alive, but the lower bodies were mushrooms, which looked a bit weird.

The mushrooms grow long fibrous roots that dance in the air, fly around, and some land on the cliffs and immediately take root. The fish and insects growing on the mushrooms help the mushrooms catch prey, forming a strange symbiosis.

The moth-turtle continued to fly downwards, and with the help of these strange mushrooms lighting the way, the abyss was not dark at all.

After flying downwards for who knows how far, they finally reached the bottom of the abyss. The ground was hot and humid, and there were glowing crystal pillars everywhere. Each crystal pillar was crystal clear and shone charmingly, illuminating the underground.

The moth-turtle flew to its nest which it had built on a large crystal pillar and landed down. As soon as it landed, it was knocked unconscious by Fu Yuqiu's magic sound.

Qin Mu had just finished absorbing the energy in the pupa and jumped out of it, full of energy. He immediately stepped forward to pull up the other three pupae and put them into his Taotie bag.

“Master, I can’t get out!” Long Qilin looked at him pitifully.

Qin Mu stepped forward, grabbed his ears and pulled them out, using all his strength to finally pull him out. He said angrily, "If you keep getting this fat, you'll have to eat dirt from now on!"

Long Qilin muttered quietly, "I've just grown stronger, not fat."

Two white bats flew up silently and said, "The ship fell from the sky and created this deep pit. It slid a long way underground and broke the barrier seal of Youdu."

"The boat is just ahead, not far from here, but there are many creatures from the Netherworld on the boat, lurking there. We can get there by following the underground river."

Qin Mu followed the two white bats and not long after he walked, he saw several corpses washed ashore by the river. They were the corpses of the strong men from the Loulan Golden Palace and judging by the situation, they must have died not long ago.

He had two white bats leading the way, so he didn't encounter any danger. However, it was extremely dangerous to get here through the Dark Valley.

Those who could make it here alive were basically masters, at least at the seven-star realm. Unfortunately, they died before they even saw the ship.

After walking a short distance, Qin Mu saw several dead skeletons. Judging from the relics on the dead skeletons, they should be disciples of the Demonic Cult.

Qin Mu sighed and was about to pick up a few stones to bury the dry bones when suddenly these "stones" ran away, jumping into the water one by one and disappeared.

As they were walking, they suddenly heard faint Buddhist chants coming from the front, lingering in this underground space.

Not long after, they arrived at the place where the Buddhist sounds came from, and saw two old monks in yellow robes sitting cross-legged on the stone wall. There were two niches carved out of the stone wall. The two old monks were sitting there, with their long eyebrows drooping outside the niches. Buddhist sounds continued to come from their bodies, and the Buddha's light flickered, resisting the surging evil spirit.

"A monk from the Great Leiyin Temple!" Qin Mu said in surprise.

"Are they dead?"

The two white bat brothers were also surprised. Fu Yuqiu said, "These two bald donkeys came here with great abilities. They said they were ordered by Tathagata to help us suppress the disturbances in Nether City and prevent the creatures in Nether City from escaping and harming all living beings. We were a little unhappy, but we couldn't beat them, so we had to let them live here. They have been sitting here for more than ten years and have helped us a lot. There were several times when the seal was almost broken and they helped suppress it. I didn't expect that they would still die of exhaustion..."

Fu Yuchun sighed, "We used to think they were delicious, but now we don't want to eat them at all... In front of us is the ship that fell from the sky."

Qin Mu looked up and his body trembled slightly.
