Chapter 458 Hope

Lin Qingtian continued to flip through the strange records, hoping to find some clues about the power of erosion from this book so that they would not be like headless flies without a goal.

It was as if he did not hear what the Great Abyss Master said!

The Suanni following behind the Great Abyss Master did not say anything and only stayed quietly. Sometimes, when its gaze swept past Lin Xuan, it would subconsciously reveal a regretful expression.

Suddenly, the silent Suanni frowned. It looked at the place where the sea and the sky intersected in the distance with a long and puzzled expression.

The Great Abyss Master in front sensed the abnormality of the Suanni. He looked over and asked, “What’s wrong?” “Supreme One, I seem to feel that something is wrong.” The Suanni looked troubled. It looked into the distance and frowned.

The Great Abyss Master laughed and said, “Hey, aren’t you a little too sensitive? We’ve just finished one round, and you’re doing it

again?”

“Supreme One, it’s a little too quiet now. Feel it carefully!”

The Great Abyss Master felt that the Suanni was too cautious. Wasn’t it always like this above the Xiang Sea? Why was it too quiet?

However, slowly, the Great Abyss Master felt that something was wrong. The careless smile on his face slowly disappeared, and his eyes looked into the distance.

It was too quiet. This silent silence was really too unusual, but when did it start? This unusual silence.

At this moment, they seemed to have let down their guard too much!

A powerful force surged out of the Great Abyss Master’s body and instantly swept through the surroundings.

The Suanni also made a defensive state. Both of them looked around warily.

The surrounding people looked at the Great Abyss Master and the Suanni in confusion, as if they did not understand why the two of them suddenly did this.

Lin Yanyi was standing at the side. He was shocked by this demonic power and could not help but ask, “What happened?”

At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly shouted, “Formation! Defense!”

Almost as soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, a water pillar suddenly rushed out from the sea not far away. Then, a huge creature floated out of the water and rushed towards the spirit ship.

“I didn’t expect to see this thing in my lifetime. Looks like you didn’t die in the battle back then but hid in the Xiang Sea!”

Ten thousand years ago, the Nine Provinces Continent was still in chaos. Demon beasts, cultivators, and divine beasts fought a chaotic battle. There was almost no pure land on the entire continent, and it was filled with blood.

It was not until a huge battle later that countless people died in this battle, especially demon beasts and ancient divine beasts. Almost all of them died, and most of those who survived were suppressed.

Just like the Great Abyss Master.

In ancient times, there were many mighty cultivators and shocking beasts, but most of them had died now.

The Great Abyss Master had been suppressed in the vast Great Desolate in that battle back then, and his cultivation had decreased greatly. At this moment, even with the protection of the True Dragon’s power, his ability had not recovered to a tenth of his peak.

However, it was not easy for him to survive until now.

Back then, it was unknown if those demons were dead or alive. There was no trace of them on this continent.

In this battle, only weak human cultivators survived and obtained the inheritance. Now, it seemed that in the Nine Provinces, only cultivators were everywhere.

This huge beast that appeared now was an old acquaintance of the Great Abyss Master.

Back then, the Xiang Sea was not the current Xiang Sea. It was only an ordinary sea. The Nine Provinces Continent was not as isolated as it was now.

When the Great Abyss Master first heard that the Xiang Sea was in trouble, he did not believe it. However, when he came to the Xiang Sea and discovered that it no longer had the spiritual qi from before, he believed the saying that it was dangerous now.

Originally, he planned to bring the Suanni to the Central Yan Continent. However, after taking a look at the Xiang Sea, he intercepted Lin Xuan and the others and followed the Lin family’s spirit ship.

Thinking of this, he looked at the huge creature in front of him and laughed loudly, “So it’s you. Ten thousand years ago, the Xiang Sea was still a treasure land. Now, it has become like this. It’s probably your work!”

On the sea, a demon beast covered in black fog was covered in black hard scales. Spiritual qi emerged from under his scales and spread out bit by bit.

The spiritual qi that emerged was black, and the density of the spiritual qi was visible to the naked eye. However, the places where the black spiritual qi spread seemed to have been corroded, and even the air emitted sizzling sounds.

When a disciple saw this, he shouted in surprise, “What… what spiritual qi is this? Why is the surrounding air corroded!”

At this moment, the Great Abyss Master seemed to understand and let out a long sigh, “I seem to understand. The thing with the corrosive power in Lin Xuan’s spirit meridians was given by you, right?”

On the spirit ship, other than Lin Bao, everyone else seemed to be facing a great enemy. They held their spiritual swords and waited solemnly.

They stared at this pitch-black behemoth in front of them without blinking. They were afraid that this thing would suddenly attack and none of them would be saved.

The black behemoth in the distance suddenly shouted fiercely at the spirit ship.

After this sound, the world shook. Waves rose and fell on the surface of the sea, as if they were about to overturn this huge spirit ship.

Everyone tried their best to stabilize themselves. Some of the servants with low abilities were unable to resist this sudden attack. They could only sway with the bumpy spirit ship. Some cultivators who had not stabilized themselves were even thrown into the sea.

They struggled weakly in the sea and then fell silent.

The cultivators could not even take care of themselves. They even split their attention to protect Lin Xuan and not let him flip into the

sea.

Suddenly, the Great Abyss Master’s demonic power surged, and his strength quickly stabilized the spirit ship. Seeing this, the cultivators hurriedly scooped up the disciples and attendants who were about to fall into the sea or had already fallen into the sea and sent them into the spirit ship.

The spirit ship quickly stabilized. In the turbulent sea, it was like a stabilizing needle, not moving at all.

At this moment, the huge creature suddenly said, “How many years has it been? You’re still the same as before.”

When the Great Abyss Master heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he shrugged and said, “I haven’t changed much, but you have changed greatly.”

“Brother! When you showed your face just now, I didn’t dare to recognize you!”
