The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 123
Chapter 123 Fall Into The Abyss
The Eternal Demon Abyss was as dark and calm as ever, without any reaction.
Even if the mountains collapsed and half of the mountain fell into the abyss, and countless people screamed miserably as they fell down, the Eternal Demon Abyss was still like a pool of stagnant water.
Eternal.
After thousands of years of silence, the Devil Abyss was still so calm, so dark, without a trace of light, nor a trace of sound.
Any light or sound that entered the Devil Abyss was like mud into the sea, completely disappearing.
In front of this vast black hole in the abyss, the enormous half of the mountain was like a speck of dust, unable to cause even the slightest ripple.
Countless people, along with countless rocks, trees, buildings, and other things, sank into the boundless darkness and disappeared.
All of them were devoured by the darkness, and none of them were spared. One could foresee that these people who had fallen into the Devil Abyss would probably never be able to return in this lifetime.
Li Qing grabbed Liu Ke’er’s hand. The two of them didn’t leave and fell to the bottom of the Devil Abyss together.
Falling from such a high place, even a fall could kill a person. This time, the two of them were really going to die.
However, their hearts were very peaceful, because their beloved was right beside them, living and dying together, what was there to regret?
The two of them stared at each other tightly. In their eyes, they only had you. They no longer cared about how dangerous the situation was. They did not want to separate their gazes for a moment. It was as if they wanted to engrave each other in their hearts and remember each other forever. That way, they would be able to renew their previous fate in the next life.
The Eternal Devil Abyss seemed to be very deep. Li Qing and Liu Ke’er fell down. They felt that they had fallen for fifteen minutes, but they hadn’t reached the end yet.
Li Qing had a very strange feeling. It was as if he was not falling from the sky, but slowly floating down. His speed was not fast, not even the sound of the wind.
It was like a strand of goose feather floating in the air, moving slowly and gently.
“This must be an illusion! It must be!” He thought to himself.
No one could be seen in the surroundings. At first, countless people fell down together, but the deeper they fell, the more scattered they became, as if they were blown into some unknown corner by the wind.
In this boundless darkness, there was no reference. They did not know what the current situation was like. They simply could not determine whether the speed of the fall was fast or slow, nor could they see how far underground it was.
The most painful thing in the world was to wait for death like this. It was truly painful. He knew that his life would not be long, and he might be smashed into meat paste in the next moment. However, death had yet to arrive.
The deeper she fell, the darker it became. She could hardly see anything anymore. Li Qing gradually couldn’t see Liu Ke’er’s face clearly. She only felt that her eyes were bright, like stars in the night.
As he descended, an inexplicable pressure gradually appeared in his heart. This kind of pressure came for no apparent reason. It came from an unknown source, but it truly existed, causing him to slowly feel fear and unease in his heart.
This was not a fear of death, nor was it a fear of the unknown. Instead, it was like a natural physiological reaction when one got close to something.
It was as if a person would get hotter when they got close to the flames and colder when they got close to the ice. When they got close to this kind of thing, the feeling of a person was fear!
“Could it be the Heavenly Devil Ape?” Li Qing guessed in his heart. Creatures close to that level would probably not have any emotions other than fear.
“What’s wrong with you?” Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but ask, “I can see that your entire body seems to be trembling. Are you afraid?”
Strangely enough, they were clearly falling into the Devil Abyss, but they were still able to speak so calmly without any inconsistencies.
They didn’t seem to be falling down, and they didn’t even feel the sound of the wind in their ears. Instead, they felt as if they were floating on water.
“Yes, I feel scared. It seems like there is a terrifying creature in the deepest part of the Devil Abyss. We are approaching it.” Li Qing replied.
“I also have this feeling. It’s a terrifying pressure, but I don’t understand where it came from. Could this creature really be a Heavenly Devil Ape?” Thinking of this, Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but shiver.
I heard that the Heavenly Devil Ape is still alive … What if the Heavenly Devil Ape stands at the bottom of the Devil Abyss right now, opens its huge mouth, waits for their whereabouts, and then eats them all in one bite?
That scene was truly too terrifying.
Although they weren’t afraid of death, they were extremely afraid of this method of death. It was disgusting to think about it.
Li Qing smiled faintly, “Forget it. No matter how many you have, you will soon fall to your death. It’s none of our business.”
The two of them remained silent and looked at each other affectionately, cherishing this last good time.
They were still falling down, and they didn’t know how long it had been. Perhaps it had been an hour, or perhaps it had been two hours…
It was as if it was endless.
Li Qing had never thought that this Eternal Devil Abyss would actually be so deep. It was simply shocking. If he continued to fall like this, would he fall into hell?
At this moment, their eyes were already pitch-black, and they couldn’t see anything at all. The entire world was like this, pitch black, boundless loneliness and emptiness.
It was hopeless.
Of course, apart from the eyes, a martial artist also had a mysterious spiritual sense. He could sense the situation around him, but the effect was much worse. Spirit perception was more about perceiving danger than seeing things.
Li Qing could feel the Heavenly Saber in his hand trembling as it fell down. It was getting more and more intense, and it was burning as if it was on fire.
He could feel that this was a feeling of excitement and longing.
The Heavenly Saber was originally a weapon in the hands of the Demon Ancestor, and the Demon Ancestor was suppressed under the Demon Abyss. Now that he was getting closer and closer to the Demon Ancestor, was the Heavenly Saber trembling violently because of his longing for its original owner?
…
I don’t know how long it took. Suddenly, Li Qing felt something and blurted out, “Here we are!”
Their heartbeats quickened at the same time, and their minds went blank as they held their breaths. The reason for that was because they knew that the moment they fell to the ground was when they died.
“Bang!”
Unexpectedly, when their feet landed on the ground, they did not receive any injuries. They only felt their legs numb and then stood on the solid ground.
“We’re not dead?” Li Qing’s heart was filled with disbelief and mixed feelings!
“He really isn’t dead!” Liu Ke’er did not think too much and was overjoyed. She threw herself into Li Qing’s arms and cried loudly.
This was simply too miraculous, falling from such a high place and actually not dying. They didn’t feel wrong before. The speed of their descent wasn’t very fast. It should be due to the influence of some mysterious power in the Devil Abyss.
The two of them were very happy and hugged each other tightly. Who would be willing to die if he didn’t die? Ants are still alive, not to mention young people in their prime.
Li Qing hugged Liu Ke’er tightly and muttered to himself, “I survived, I finally survived!”
The two of them were filled with joy for the rest of their lives.
“Have you noticed that our voices seem to be much softer?” After a while, Li Qing noticed the abnormal situation and said.
“That’s right. It’s obviously normal to speak, but it sounds very quiet.” Liu Ke’er nodded.
The sound seemed to be weakened in the air, and it only echoed within a meter or two before disappearing.
“Here, for some special reason, the sound of speaking has been weakened.” Li Qing guessed.
There was no movement in the pitch-black surroundings, which made one’s hair stand on end.
It was too quiet! A deathly desperate silence.
“Have you noticed that there seems to be no spiritual energy here?” Liu Ke’er said uncertainly.
“What?” Li Qing’s expression changed drastically. He carefully sensed it, and it was indeed like this!
Without the slightest bit of spiritual energy, it was completely blank!
“How could this be? The bottom of the Devil Abyss is truly too strange!” Li Qing couldn’t help but feel his scalp go numb.
They had just rejoiced in the aftermath of their tribulation, but now they were worried about their future survival.
