Chapter 2103 - 2104: Gazing into the Abyss
"Actually, it’s not impossible to save him..." Ye Qiu suddenly said.
Turquoise Pool glanced at Ye Qiu, only to hear Ye Qiu continue, "As long as he offers enough benefits, unfortunately, he hasn’t mentioned a word and expects us to help, which is too presumptuous."
"Let’s deal with these abyssal demons first." Turquoise Pool’s expression flashed, devouring the previous human’s abyssal demons, turning their gaze this way, all rushing over fiercely.
Before the words were finished, Turquoise Pool took the lead to act. Under Turquoise Pool’s attack, these abyssal demons didn’t last a moment before all fell, turning into a pool of green blood.
"As expected, Turquoise Pool Fairy, so powerful." Ye Qiu clapped his hands and said.
Turquoise Pool cast Ye Qiu a glance and said, "Compared to you, I fall far short. If you had acted, I wouldn’t have to waste so much effort." The implication being slightly dissatisfied that Ye Qiu didn’t act.
"I believe with Turquoise Pool Fairy’s strength, dealing with a few weakest abyssal demons isn’t strenuous." Ye Qiu smiled.
Abyssal demons are divided into several levels, namely, ordinary abyssal demons, king abyssal demons, and emperor abyssal demons.
Among them, ordinary abyssal demons are the most common as they continuously spawn in the cosmic abyss. As for king abyssal demons, they are relatively rare. If among tens of thousands of abyssal demons, there is one king demon, it’s already good. As for emperor abyssal demons, they are even rarer.
Unless delving deep into the abyss, it’s very difficult to encounter emperor abyssal demons; this tier of abyssal demon’s strength surpasses the Supreme Saints, requiring heavenly-grade powers to withstand.
Emperor abyssal demons are extremely rare, having not appeared for hundreds of years.
Precisely because emperor abyssal demons don’t appear, many young martial artists dare to use the cosmic abyss as a training ground.
After dealing with more than a dozen ordinary abyssal demons, the group continued forward. The martial artist before barely could defeat ordinary abyssal demons. Essentially, it wasn’t anyone else’s fault; without adequate strength yet daring to venture into the cosmic abyss, it was seeking death, dying could not blame others, only one’s own inadequacy.
With Ye Qiu, a Supreme Saint around, afterwards appeared abyssal demons couldn’t escape their deaths. As soon as they emerged, Ye Qiu dealt with them all. Continuing forward, not knowing how long had passed, the group arrived at a cliff location.
Turquoise Pool showed a serious expression and said, "This is the true cosmic abyss."
Actually, without Turquoise Pool’s words, Ye Qiu already sensed the extraordinariness here. Around, not even a single weed existed, a veritable wasteland.
Moreover, this cliff was very long. Where they stood, they could only see tens of meters away; farther became blurry.
The cosmic abyss has no opposite bank; in front of the abyss is an endless darkness, like the end of the universe.
Ye Qiu stood still, unable to calm his mindset; notwithstanding the vastness of the universe, it too has an end, and here appears to be that end.
An abyss without another shore; as the gaze follows downwards.
Gazing into the abyss, Ye Qiu became lost in thought. Gradually, Ye Qiu once again began using his X-ray eyes.
His eyes emitted two beams straight towards the bottom of the abyss. At first, Ye Qiu could see many climbing figures, all were the abyssal demons previously seen, especially the deeper into the abyss, the more abyssal demons gathered.
He hadn’t yet seen the abyss’s deepest part, continuously trying to look further down.
Ye Qiu’s eyes started to dry. Since reaching the Supreme Saint tier, he hadn’t used his X-ray vision. With leaps in strength, actually, this time, the X-ray eyes also underwent a subtle change, Ye Qiu could feel his X-ray vision becoming stronger.
That penetrating power grew ever stronger.
Precisely because of this, Ye Qiu wanted to know his X-ray vision’s limit, a perfect chance to test via the cosmic abyss.
Thus, Ye Qiu’s gaze shot straight into the abyss, constantly advancing. About after descending ten thousand meters, Ye Qiu saw a king abyssal demon. Although the demon perceived his gaze, it merely glanced without any strange actions.
Continuing downward.
Twenty thousand meters, thirty thousand meters, one hundred thousand meters...
When reaching two hundred thousand meters, Ye Qiu’s eyes began to bleed, his body trembling uncontrollably, his complexion turning pale.
"’Young Master... Young Master!"
Jin Shanshun and Qin Feng’s voices came from his ears. Ye Qiu snapped back to reality, his entire body soaked, drenched by sweat in a mere instant, eliciting a cold sweat from Ye Qiu.
Even Turquoise Pool showed a look of disbelief, thinking Ye Qiu seemed somewhat out of character.
What exactly happened?
They only saw Ye Qiu standing at the cliff’s edge, gazing into the depths of the abyss, how did he suddenly become like this?
In Ye Qiu’s mind emerged the scene he had just witnessed, his whole body spontaneously sweating coldly.
What did he see?
A pair of terrifyingly extreme eyes!
When Ye Qiu’s gaze fell upon these eyes, they locked eyes, and at that moment, Ye Qiu felt his soul almost suffocating.
Terrifying, powerful, deity!
Impossible to describe what sort of existence those eyes belonged to, in any case, making Ye Qiu feel like facing the god of death; even before those heavenly-grade powers, he hadn’t felt this frightened.
At that moment, Ye Qiu felt his whole body frozen.
Those terrifying eyes, just their gaze could kill.
At least killing him, a Supreme Saint, wouldn’t be a problem.
However, that existence didn’t kill Ye Qiu, merely glanced at him and then closed, disappearing into the darkness; Ye Qiu dared not look again.
As the saying goes, when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss is gazing back at you.
Ye Qiu was frightened by those eyes, a sense of danger he had never felt before.
He couldn’t even imagine what kind of existence those eyes belonged to, heavenly-grade? Ye Qiu felt even more terrifying than heavenly-grade.
"Are you okay?" Turquoise Pool asked.
Ye Qiu barely managed a smile; at that moment, he almost wanted to turn and leave, unwilling to stay a moment longer.
However, Turquoise Pool said, "If you’re fine, then we’ll stay here. Once the abyssal demons climb up, we’ll slice them directly."
Ye Qiu took a deep breath, suppressing his inner fear. He hadn’t experienced fear in a long time; even in times of sheer despair before, he hadn’t been this terrified.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Qiu feigned a normal appearance without intending to tell Turquoise Pool what he saw, it held no significance; since that existence didn’t kill him then, it wouldn’t climb out to kill them.
Perhaps, in that existence’s eyes, he was too insignificant to bother with.
All in all, upon seeing that existence earlier, Ye Qiu dared not underestimate the cosmic abyss anymore, even giving rise to a deep sense of dread.
But wanting to earn military merit points, he had to come here to slay abyssal demons.
This left Ye Qiu deeply conflicted, yet thinking as long as that existence didn’t climb out of the abyss, they wouldn’t be in danger. With that thought, he felt slightly relieved.
