1610 Untitled
When the old woman saw this unbelievable scene, she placed the lamp refined from demon beast oil on a broken stone pillar in the hall. That dim light was the only source of light in the entire Divine Demon Hall.
Zhan Wuya suddenly teleported to the cliff outside the Divine Demon Hall. The terrain here was steep and the view was wide. Under the moonlight, Zhan Wuya could see the scenery fifty kilometers away. He noticed that there wasn’t a single decent city in the entire Dark Night Abyss.
The only city that could be called a ‘city’ actually still had the most primitive structure of a tribal city. Most of the houses in the city were made with rocks and mortar. There were no lights in the city, and only white lanterns could be seen.
There were no high-rise buildings here, nor were there any maglev train aeroplane. Perhaps carriages and ox carts were the means of transportation here.
This world called the Dark Night Abyss seemed to have been abandoned by the three thousand worlds. It was still at the economic level of ten thousand years ago.
Zhan Wuya closed his eyes with sorrow.
“Master.” The old woman, Sang Luo, walked to Zhan Wuya’s side with her walking stick. Seeing that he was staring at the distant city in a daze, she asked Zhan Wuya, “Where are you from?”
“Cang Lang Continent.”
“Cang Lang Continent…” Sang Luo thought about it carefully before saying, “I’ve seen this name in an ancient book. The ancient book said that south of the deep space of the Demon Beast Continent, there’s a continent called Cang Lang. Like Green Island, it was once a holy land where Divine Masters lived. ”
Sang Luo raised her head and her gaze lingered on Zhan Wuya’s unique attire for a few more seconds before she asked curiously, “Comparing the current Dark Night Abyss with Cang Lang Continent, which is more powerful?”
If any Beast Tamer who had ascended from the Great World heard this, they would probably become a laughing stock.
However, Zhan Wuya felt extremely sorrowful.
In the darkness, a few Grand Master-level spiritual energy fluctuations moved quickly before finally stopping on the ancient tree near the Divine Demon Hall.
Zhan Wuya guessed that the top experts of this world were secretly observing him.
Zhan Wuya sighed sadly before turning around to say to the old woman, “Senior, on the Cang Lang Continent, there is no country or city with an economic or technological level like that of the Dark Night Abyss… is primitive.” Even describing the Dark Night Abyss as backward was too much of an overestimate.
When Sang Luo heard this, her expression instantly became shocked.
“The Cang Lang Continent is actually so powerful?”
The Dark Night Abyss had long been forgotten by the three thousand worlds and the Beast Tamers here had never successfully walked out, so they had no idea about the development of the outside worlds. Therefore, when Sang Luo found out that the Cang Lang Continent was actually so far ahead of the Dark Night Abyss, Sang Luo was naturally shocked.
Zhan Wuya shook his head.
After he opened his right palm, an advertisement recorded with a memory stone was projected into the void.
The old woman and the experts hiding in the dark stared at the void without blinking.
This advertisement was an advertisement produced by the Divine Miracle Continent’s Cang Lang City. The reason it was recorded in the memory stone was to make it convenient for local cultivators to introduce their hometown to other world cultivators when they went to an alternate world to train.
The city in the advertisement was prosperous and gorgeous.
High-rise buildings rose from the ground and into the city. Under the support of spiritual energy, maglev train tracks hung high in the deep sky. The maglev train passed through the city’s sky like a giant snake.
Luxurious and domineering aeroplanes were parked on the aeroplane platform. Beautiful flight attendants stood in front of the aeroplane as they recited the city proclamation of Cang Lang City with a smile.
The various classic scenic areas, as well as the War God Clan and Cang Lang Academy, which was famous in the three thousand worlds, appeared in this advertisement.
The advertisement was a total of five minutes long.
However, this five-minute advertisement shocked Sang Luo and the experts hiding in the dark.
“The Cang Lang Continent has actually developed to such an advanced stage.” Sang Luo stared at the memory stone in disbelief as she marveled, “In that world, there are vehicles that can soar through the clouds like snakes, but in our world, there are only the most primitive demon beast ox carts. Their houses are high and towering, while our houses are all walls made of mortar. Their clothes are very luxurious, but it’s very difficult for people in the Dark Night Abyss to find a cloth as thin as a cicada’s wing…”
Sang Luo shook his head sadly and lamented, “We have already been left behind by the other worlds.”
Sang Luo’s eyes were filled with despair.
She looked very dejected.
Zhan Wuya asked Sang Luo, “Senior, why hasn’t anyone successfully ascended to the Great World in the Dark Night Abyss in the past ten thousand years?” Logically speaking, this shouldn’t be the case.
Sang Luo looked at Zhan Wuya hesitantly and couldn’t bear to tell him the truth.
“Senior, you don’t have to worry. Just say it.”
The old woman shook her head with a sigh. She still couldn’t bear to tell the truth.
At this moment, a white-haired old man in a black robe suddenly flew over from the huge tree.
After he stood beside Sang Luo, he suddenly knelt down to Zhan Wuya on one knee.
“Lord, my name is Loso and my ancestor was once an attendant in the Divine Demon Hall. His main job was to record the daily life and words of the Divine Demon Hall’s Palace Master. He recorded all the deeds of the Divine Demon Hall’s Palace Master in a history book called the ‘Divine Demon Palace Record’. That book is still stored in my family’s secret chamber. I’m the current attendant and have read the ‘Divine Demon Palace Record’, so I know the history of the Dark Night Abyss.”
“Lord, I’m willing to explain all your doubts and solve your problems.”
Nodding, Zhan Wuya asked him to tell him everything recorded in the history book.
Loso said, “19,000 years ago, the Dark Night Abyss where we lived had another name, Green Island. The Witch Palace behind me was once called the Divine Demon Hall and was the palace where the legendary Demon Divine Master, Lord Leng Yao, lived.”
Zhan Wuya nodded slightly. “Continue.”
“Our ancestors were all loyal to Lord Leng Yao. However, 19,000 years ago, Lord Leng Yao underwent a demonic transformation and almost killed all the guards and followers of the Divine Demon Hall. Fortunately, Lord Leng Yao’s good friend, Lord Ling Xiao, appeared in time and killed Lord Leng Yao in the Demonic Abyss at the price of his own death.”
With that, Loso looked at the bottomless crack under the cliff and said, “The black abyss in front of us is the place where Lord Leng Yao and Lord Ling Xiao died.”
Zhan Wuya turned around and lowered his eyes to look at the bottomless abyss with sorrow.
