NOVEL NEXT Chapter 47: Is Chang'an Safe?
If the prediction is correct, after the Blood Demon Lord falls, next the players will naturally discover this spatial passage.
Then, using this as a clue, they will gradually unravel the "Blood Slaughter Mystery" of this version.
This is the correct way for the main storyline quest of this version to unfold.
But this time, Lu Qingshan received a tip as if someone cheated, secretly conveying the message "Qing King's Blood Slaughter, seeking the Ancestral Realm" to him, which led to the completely different "plot unfolding" now.
Li Qiubai, who was standing nearby, squinted his eyes at this moment, a cold light flashing in his gaze.
In Yanlan Pass, the number of demon cultivators secretly brought in without detection can only be facilitated by a few significant figures, countable on one hand.
Qing King is one of them.
Combining the blood slaughter message mentioned by Lu Qingshan and the past massacre of empty three cities, he could almost conclude that the blood slaughter event was not baseless.
As for this spatial passage....
It also reveals a lot of information.
The Xuan Venerable went to such great lengths to set up a spatial passage to the Heavenly Gate Realm in such a desolate place for only one reason.....
In Xuan Venerable's view, after this journey, it is most likely that he will not be able to return to the Abyss via the path of Yanlan Pass, so he needs to arrange a backup route for himself.
Although Li Qiubai was strong enough not to worry about many things, it did not mean he was brainless.
He immediately understood the hidden details.
"A backup route?" Li Qiubai glanced deeply at the small spatial passage and snorted coldly.
The next moment, a wisp of Sword Qi emerged out of thin air, howling fiercely, slashing straight towards the dark spatial passage.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Sword Qi shot straight into the spatial passage, advancing continuously in the dark interdimensional space.
There were bursts of clinking sounds coming out.
With the joint efforts of demonic cultivators from both the Heavenly Gate Realm and Black Abyss, the spatial passage had been reinforced enough to temporarily accommodate the Xuan Venerable's passage.
Therefore, the terrifying Sword Qi emitted by Li Qiubai could also pass through this spatial passage.
......
Abyss, Heavenly Gate Realm.
Under the vast blood moon, in a valley, dozens of ghostly purple figures sat cross-legged, forming a circle, eyes slightly closed.
At their center was an existence as deep as a black hole.
A passage connecting the Sky Dome Central Heavenly Realm and the Abyss Heavenly Gate Realm.
Purple radiance continuously flowed from these purple figures into the inter-realm passage.
"Hmm, there's movement. Such a strong fluctuation must mean that the Xuan Venerable is returning."
At this moment, a Void Demon Clan Demon Lord, whose power had reached Eighth Grade, suddenly felt a fluctuation and lightly hinted, "Xuan Venerable is very powerful and requires high spatial passage stability, everyone stay vigilant, don't make any mistakes."
"Yes." The other Void Demon cultivators hurriedly responded in unison.
As they spoke, they all exerted more power, and the purple light shimmering on their bodies intensified a bit more, flowing towards the spatial passage in clusters.
"What is that?" As everyone focused intently, one person suddenly opened his eyes leisurely and glanced at the spatial passage. The next moment, he widened his eyes and exclaimed in shock.
Following his cry of surprise, the others unconsciously opened their slightly closed eyes and cast their gazes in the direction of his finger.
In the dark, deep passage, at this moment, a dazzling light point flickered, blazing, brilliant, and radiant.
Before they could react to identify what it was, the brilliant light point kept enlarging, reflecting in their pupils, finally condensing into a thin frost line.
A line of formidable Sword Qi howled out from the spatial passage.
In an instant, the Sword Qi split from one into two, from two into three, and then into countless, forming a vast river of Sword Qi.
The dense Sword Qi was like a school of fish in the sea, like a roaring torrent, spreading densely and covering the sky as it expanded in all directions.
Even after traveling the entire spatial passage distance, even though it was formed from a single Sword Qi, each slender Sword Qi strand could still easily kill an average Eighth Grade Demon Cultivator.
That scene, reminiscent of a certain character's signature skill from a bygone game in Lu Qingshan's past life—Blade Storm, instantly swept through this area.
The Sword Qi effortlessly tore through the bodies of the demon cultivators, turning them into clouds of blood mist dispersing.
Whoosh!
In an instant, after the sweeping river of Sword Qi, the area that once gathered dozens of Void Demon Cultivators was now empty.
No resistance, no room for struggle.
A single Sword Qi crossed vast space, transcending the realm, sending them to another dimension.
......
On this side.
The previously spinning spatial passage suddenly halted, emitting a screeching noise.
In the horrified eyes of the five Void Demon Cultivators, the vast five or six zhang hole contracted sharply, becoming narrow, shrinking to less than one zhang, before stabilizing again.
How could the Void Race's demon cultivators, who understood space so well, not grasp the cause?
This indicates that the spatial passage reverted to its previous unstable state, also signifying that their fellow clansmen on the other end of the spatial passage must have perished by now.
