Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2904
Chapter 1417 Showdown
“This is forbidden territory; almost all Asuras are forbidden from approaching,” Tu Shanyu explained.
Zu An also saw clearly that the guards were protecting the only passage, truly giving off an air of “keep away, strangers!” Even with his Myriad Transformations technique, it wouldn’t be easy for him to sneak in unnoticed.
However, this time he didn’t need to worry, as he could follow Tu Shanyu in openly.
Soon, guards jumped out, weapons in hand, surrounding the two, while the giant weapons of the distant array were also faintly pointed at them.
Tu Shanyu didn’t speak, but simply took out a uniquely shaped token.
Upon seeing this, the Asura guards quickly sheathed their weapons, bowed to the two, and made way for them.
Tu Shanyu naturally led Zu An inside, making Zu An secretly sigh, “Having acquaintances makes things much easier.”
The two boarded a small boat on the shore, which automatically sailed into the depths of the sea.
After an unknown amount of time, the boat stopped.
Zu An then realized that the surrounding sea was as black as ink. He knew very well that the deeper the sea, the darker its color. This color of the sea even gave him a vague sense of fear. Could this be the Abyss of Eternal Night?
At this moment, the calm sea in front of him suddenly boiled, and two enormous Asuras formed from seawater stood up, staring menacingly at the two of them.
Tu Shanyu took out the token in her hand again, and the two enormous Asuras fell back into the water, then transformed into two doors that opened, revealing a straight staircase leading downwards in the sea.
Tu Shanyu turned back and smiled sweetly: “Brother Zu, let’s go down.”
Zu An nodded, looking at the smooth walls along the way—actually, they weren’t walls, but rather naturally formed by the sea. His Sea God’s Crown could also do this, but he wondered what kind of power this world possessed to achieve it.
The two of them continued downwards, not knowing how long they walked, as if an eternity had passed, until the long staircase finally reached its end.
Now, being in the deep sea, there shouldn’t be any light, but this space was not dark at all.
Everywhere floated luminous jellyfish and corals. Although not as bright as the outside world, it was still enough to see everything clearly.
At first, Zu An didn’t think much of it, but as he walked further, his expression became strange.
“What’s wrong?” Tu Shan Yu clearly noticed his odd behavior.
“This whole underwater scene seems familiar.”
“Familiar? You shouldn’t have been here before,” Tu Shan Yu asked, puzzled.
Zu An didn’t continue, but carefully examined his surroundings.
Gradually, the sense of familiarity became more and more pronounced. Although many of the buildings were different, they resembled the abyss leading to the Netherworld in the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons in later generations.
Wait, they’re all called abyss, this Eternal Night Abyss…
He quickly moved forward, arriving at a cliff. Looking at the pitch-black abyss in the distance, seemingly about to devour everything, a familiar and comforting feeling washed over him. It was indeed the abyss in the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons in later generations.
Hearing his explanation, Tu Shanyu’s eyes lit up: “Brother Zu, when we return to the future, will you take me to see the Netherworld?”
“Of course.” Zu An smiled, but he wondered if the Netherworld was still behind this abyss.
Houtu Niangniang’s Netherworld should be.
Thinking about it was pointless; he decided to jump into the abyss himself to investigate.
“I’m a little scared,” Tu Shanyu hesitated. “This Eternal Night Abyss looks like a monstrous beast ready to devour anyone, and it’s said that the first Asura Demon God was buried there.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve been down into this abyss before. Wait for me here, I’ll be back soon.” Zu An was about to go down, but Tu Shanyu didn’t want to be separated from him.
Zu An wasn’t new to taking people with him, so he simply used his divine power to envelop her, and then they jumped into the abyss together.
The pitch-black abyss was different from what he remembered, filled with brutal slaughter and evil intent.
There was even a powerful gravitational pull and tearing force; if Zuan hadn’t become stronger, he would have been torn to shreds in an instant.
“Although the appearance is the same, there are still significant differences. What happened to weaken the power of these things in later generations?”
Zuan fell into deep thought, then finally stepped onto solid ground.
Looking at the dark vortex gate behind him, it was clearly the Eternal Night Abyss he had just arrived at.
He looked ahead; it was no longer the Netherworld of his memories, but a completely new world.
However, this world was particularly monotonous, with almost nothing except for a continuous mountain range in the distance.
He felt a vague unease; in fact, he had felt this unease ever since he stepped onto those steps.
However, in his search for the Eternal Night Abyss, he hadn’t investigated carefully along the way. Now, recalling it, the entire space seemed to contain a special formation, faintly exuding an eerie feeling.
And this world should be the most crucial eye of that formation.
He was about to investigate when a thought struck him: “Someone’s coming.”
Tu Shanyu was startled and looked around: “There seems to be nowhere to hide.”
This world was too monotonous; there wasn’t even anything to hide in.
Zu An, however, remained calm. He pulled her into his arms and quickly vanished into nothingness.
Almost simultaneously, the dark vortex gate in the distance began to ripple, and then three figures stepped out.
Zu An recognized one of them in the void as Luo Qiantuo, another slightly weaker one as his vice-commander Tuoluojia, and the last one whose aura was in no way inferior to Luo Qiantuo’s.
Tu Shanyu gently wrote words on his chest, reminding him that it was the Asura Grand Elder, Vimalakirti.
Zu An secretly sighed, “She really is a vixen; she’s always so alluring. If the timing and place weren’t so inappropriate, there would probably have been a passionate encounter.”
He composed himself, pondering why the Asura’s major figures would be here.
At this moment, Luo Qiantuo’s voice came: “Vimalakirti, how exactly do you plan to resurrect the first Asura Demon God? I heard you intend to use sacrificial methods, so what exactly is the sacrifice?”
“Huh? Who told you that?” Vimalakirti was somewhat surprised.
“Never mind who told me, is it true or not?”
“As expected of the God of War, you really do have your own methods. You even know such a secret matter. That’s right, you do intend to resurrect the Demon God through sacrifice, and the sacrifice is of course the Asura King.” Vimalakirti explained.
Luo Qiantuo frowned: “Although I don’t understand sacrificial rituals, if an Asura King can resurrect a Demon God, why hasn’t anyone done it before?”
“What exactly are you trying to say?” Vimalakirti snorted.
“I sensed the aura of a Heavenly Demon on the messenger you sent before. Are you cooperating with the Heavenly Demon?” Luo Qiantuo stared coldly at the other party.
“Although the Heavenly Demons also belong to the Heavenly Court, we share a common enemy. What’s wrong with a suitable alliance?” Vimalakirti said calmly.
“The Heavenly Demons are adept at bewitching people. Cooperating with them will only bring destruction to the entire Asura tribe.” Rahu said solemnly. “If I’m not mistaken, my Blood Navy Legion is among the sacrifices you’ve prepared. Am I right, my dear vice-commander?”
Upon hearing his words, Dharani’s expression changed drastically. His aura surged instantly, and he tried to attack, but almost immediately, he was grabbed by the neck. His eight outstretched arms went limp, and he dared not resist in the slightest.
