Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 846 A Bloody Pelvic Bone

As they approached the mountain, the harem spirit exclaimed, “There truly is a towering mountain!”

The mountain stood tall and grand, reaching high into the sky. Even at first glance, one could sense its

imposing presence. This must be the mountain that Polly had mentioned.

“It’s so massive, soaring into the heavens… No wonder its depicted as just a small dot on the map.”

The group continued on their journey and soon arrived at the large and deep lake that Polly had

described.

Upon seeing it, the lake appeared light blue on the surrounding edges, but its center was pitch black. It

gave off an impression of great depth.

“That’s it, Polly was right.” The harem spirit marveled, clicking his tongue. “It’s incredible how

exceptional the parrot’s eyesight is!”

Polly swayed his tail proudly, raising his head and puffing out his chest. “Captain Polly, at your service!”

Lilly could not help but smile and then expressed her concern, “I wonder what happened to Ivan.”

The cowardly ghost chimed in, “Regardless of the situation… Lilly, remember what your father said. Do

your best, but don’t push yourself beyond your capabilities.”

Lilly nodded, “Alright.”

After passing through the lake and traversing the mountain’s edge, a massive abyss came into view.

This abyss was the other side of the towering mountain. It seemed as if the mountain had been cleaved

in half by a powerful force. The abyss was steep and exuded an icy coldness, with gusts of chilling air

rising from its depths.

The abyss stretched vast and seemingly endless.

Standing on the edge of the deep pit, a mournful sound emanated from below, reminiscent of wind

whistling through stone walls and the wailing of countless ghosts beneath.

Lilly had visited the underworld twice before, searching for the locust forest, the ten–headed bird, and

soul flowers.

Aside from the King of Cities, the most awe–inspiring sight she had encountered was the Hidden Valley

As they stood in front of the colossal abyss, the harem spirit muttered in a daze, “Compared to this

abyss, the Hidden Valley that would be shredded by the wind as soon as Lilly entered is like child’s

play. Nothing can compare to it!”

The unlucky ghost joined in, “I don’t dare to venture into this massive pit of the abyss!”

Jessie, who was nearby, echoed, “I don’t dare to do so!”

The cowardly ghost gazed at the abyss with a troubled expression. “Alban mentioned that Ivan fell to

the bottom of this abyss. Given its immense size, we don’t know exactly where he fell.”

“Moreover, even if we did know his precise location… we can’t go down.”

This abyss spelled certain death for anyone attempting to descend into it.

Merely looking at the abyss made one feel as though they would be torn to shreds. Throughout their

journey, they encountered numerous wandering ghosts, but not a single one ventured near this abyss.

It demonstrated the taboo and fear it instilled in the spirits.

The harem spirit furrowed his brow. “How did Ivan manage to go down?”

They could not avoid considering that Alban’s account described their descent from the bottom of the

abyss, and there was only one chance, of survival, which Alban utilized by kicking Ivan down.

This indicated that they truly descended into the abyss, and Alban managed to come back up.

“The things Alban said sounded plausible before we arrived here, but now that we’ve seen the abyss,

nothing seems normal about what he told you,” analyzed the cowardly ghost and the harem spirit in

hushed tones.

Lilly, eager to learn, inquired, “What’s strange about it?”

Her only thought was that they were able to descend and ascend this abyss, which was anything but

normal.

The cowardly ghost proceeded to provide an analysis, saying, “First of all, this abyss is smooth, lacking

any footholds. It’s impossible for someone to simply dive straight into it.”

The harem spirit nodded in agreement and added, “Ghost generals like us can’t descend, so he can’t

be carried down by ghosts.

Lilly nodded in understanding and asked, “I see! And then?”

The cowardly ghost continued, “Alban also mentioned that when they came up, the creature in the

abyss awakened, and there was only one chance to escape… But why only one?”

Ordinarily, if there was a way out, anyone could run for it. It was just a matter of timing.

Lilly suddenly had a realization, exclaiming, “So, there must be something that could only

accommodate one person at a time!”

The cowardly ghost nodded, “You’re on the right track

There must be a way to descend and ascend the abyss, and it could only accommodate one person at

a time.

This object was the key to the abyss.

“What could it be…” pondered the harem spirit and the cowardly ghost.

The foolish ghost continued to wander, unable to figure out anything. It was better for him to wait until

the others had a solution, and then he could go along with whatever plan they came up with.

The unlucky ghost, aspiring to imitate the cowardly ghost and become a military–grade ghost, but

lacking the brains to do so, suggested, “Could there be a cable car here? One person at a time?”

That was nonsense. It was not the right answer.

Lilly lifted her gaze, staring into the distance and observing the abyss.

The vast crater was shrouded in darkness, concealed by the cold bad aura.

Polly sighed, “Ah, Abyss, you’re such a colossal pit!”

Suddenly, Lilly pointed to the distance and exclaimed, “There’s no cable car… but there’s a bone…”

In the frigid and dark abyss, a white bone floated slowly toward them.

It appeared to be a pelvic bone, with traces of blood on it, reflecting the cold, eerie light against the

bleak backdrop, as if it had just been torn off…

At that moment, Lilly understood what Alban meant.

“There’s only one chance to survive…”

“It must be because only one person can stand on this pelvic bone,” the cowardly ghost remarked, his

gaze fixed upon the bone.

Considering the vastness of the abyss, the presence of a solitary human bone floating there was

strange.

How had it managed to remain unscathed by the bad aura?

If it meant that Lilly had to stand on this pelvis to descend into the abyss…

Should she descend into the abyss?
