Chapter 2194: Chapter 2194

Leaving the Demon Abyss were only Su Yang and Su Zhan, the father and son duo, while Lian Wanxiong remained below to guard the three grass huts.

Although there were no large beasts inside the Demon Abyss, there were still some small animals like foxes and monkeys. Without a guard, who knows how these little creatures would treat the grass huts.

Su Yang and Su Zhan reached the entrance of the Demon Abyss, looking up to see a swirl of black air hovering at the exit.

Passing through the black air would lead into the Demon Abyss. Once inside, one's power would be limited, and the body's strength would be swiftly drained away. As a result, if anyone falls into the Demon Abyss, they would become a completely immobile cripple.

This is why the Demon Abyss is the most terrifying among the Three Death Zones.

Because, whether it be Storm Valley or Feather Spirit Palace, one could still explore and have a chance of returning alive.

But the Demon Abyss, on the other hand, does not grant such a possibility.

Once fallen into it, one can only sit paralyzed on the ground, waiting to die, ultimately dying here.

"Father, didn't people come to explore the Demon Abyss before?" Su Yang asked curiously while following Su Zhan upward, "Why haven't we seen even a single skeleton? Instead, there are so many skeletons outside in the valley!"

"There used to be many skeletons here, but I buried them!" Su Zhan pointed to a small hill in the distance: "Over there, I've buried tens of thousands."

"So many?" Su Yang was shocked.

"There were too many people who came to explore the Demon Abyss back then. Rumor has it that a newly ascended Saint came to explore here as well, and he died too!" Su Zhan shrugged: "I found his remains among those piles of bones. His bones were different from ordinary people, half-transparent and very mysterious."

"Even a Saint died here!?" Su Yang's eyes widened, filled with shock and disbelief.

"Yes!" Su Zhan said, "Otherwise, why did the Nine Realms Saints join forces to seal off this area, and no one dares to explore here anymore? Because, it's a place where even Saints would die!"

Su Yang was dumbstruck; how could a Saint, so defiant against the heavens, end up dying here so pitifully?

"The power within the Demon Abyss is beyond our imagination, even beyond that of the Saints!" Su Zhan said solemnly, "There are so many unknowns, so many secrets in the universe. The Nine Realms are so tiny within the universe. Even the Nine Realms Saints, how significant are they in the universe? They're like mere dust particles!"

Su Yang nodded thoughtfully; he deeply resonated with Su Zhan's words. After honing his skills in the Endless Starry Sky and witnessing the might of Beast Tamers on that planet, he realized what it meant to have people stronger than oneself, worlds beyond worlds!

Just, where do figures like the master of Feather Spirit Palace, World Melting Furnace, and even the master of the Demon Abyss stand in this universe?

Lost in thoughts, the two had already climbed out of the Demon Abyss.

In fact, as long as one has cultivated the Secret Technique of Devouring the World, the Demon Abyss is merely a steep valley, without anything particularly terrifying.

Having emerged from the Demon Abyss, Su Yang and his companions began their search in the valley.

Su Yang had previously traversed here for quite a while, familiarizing himself with the surroundings. Thus, this search was considerably easier.

After walking for three days, they discovered someone — it was Ye Wantong!

Ye Wantong was sprawled weakly on the ground; seemingly, she had been here for quite some time, looking very haggard.

Su Yang hurriedly ran over and helped Ye Wantong up.

"Wan Tong, you… How are you here?" Su Yang asked anxiously, seeing Ye Wantong's weary appearance caused him distress, as he quickly took out the bottle he carried, giving her a few sips of water.

With a few gulps of water, Ye Wantong regained some energy. Upon seeing Su Yang, her eyes welled up with tears, and she hugged Su Yang tightly, sobbing.

"It's alright! It's alright!" Su Yang gently patted Ye Wantong's back and after a while, Ye Wantong calmed down and finally narrated her experience of ending up here.

Apparently, after Su Yang and his companions fell into the abyss, Ye Wantong waited an entire month, and when Su Yang didn't return, she couldn't sit still anymore. Ignoring others' attempts to stop her, she personally came to investigate.

As a result, once inside, she immediately lost her power. After walking for a short time, even her physical strength was drained, leaving her paralyzed here.

Listening to Ye Wantong's account, Su Yang felt deeply pained. He guessed Ye Wantong would surely worry about him, but he hadn't expected Ye Wantong to resolutely come searching for him here.

Knowing well the dangers here, yet she still entered to find him, this deep affection filled Su Yang's heart with warmth.

Su Zhan stood nearby, watching the two with a smiling face.

Su Yang saw Su Zhan and remembered his father was beside him, swiftly helping Ye Wantong to her feet.

"Wan Tong, this is my father, Su Zhan!" Su Yang introduced: "Father, this is Ye Wantong, she… she's my wife, Ye Sword Saint's daughter!"

"Oh?" Su Zhan's eyes lit up, he sized up Ye Wantong with a smile, saying, "Truly carries the spirit of Miss Yue, befitting the daughter of Ye Sword Saint. Hahaha, I never imagined that the marriage agreement I made with Ye Sword Saint back then really came to fruition!"

Ye Wantong also looked curiously at Su Zhan; she had heard Su Zhan's name countless times.

Her father, Ye Sword Saint, had told her since she was young that Su Zhan was the most heroic and talented person he ever met. Moreover, before Ye Sword Saint mastered his cultivation, Su Zhan had given him a lot of help; Ye Sword Saint's swordsmanship could become a unique style, largely due to Su Zhan's guidance.

It's a pity that Su Zhan disappeared for decades, and people thought Su Zhan was dead.

Who could have imagined meeting Su Zhan here is really a joyful occasion!

"Father!" Ye Wantong blushed slightly, greeting Su Zhan respectfully.

Su Zhan nodded with a smile, "Good, good, very good! How is your father?"

"Father… Father went to the Heavenly Realm…" Ye Wantong said softly, "But he mainly trains in the Endless Starry Sky, now… now he is already a Sub-Saint!"

"Sub-Saint!?" Su Zhan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "That guy has indeed achieved the highest among us. A Sub-Saint, looks like the time for him to One Sword Seals the Sky is near!"

"One Sword Seals the Sky?" Su Yang asked, surprised. It was the second time he heard the phrase, what does it mean?
