Qin Wuhun doubted his own ears, he must have heard wrong!

He had just said that the trio joining forces might not stand a chance to come back alive, and in the blink of an eye, Li Cheng said he would go by himself?

Unexpectedly, Feng Wanli’s eyes lit up with excitement, and he laughed, “Come on, tell Li Cheng the location of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave’s lair!”

Qin Wuhun frowned, “Haven’t you always held Li Cheng in high esteem, so why are you now so eager for him to go to his death?”

That’s their nest, with many high-ranking Loose Immortals, the entire Southern Domain’s powerhouses coming together would need to tread carefully, recalculate plans over and over to avoid heavy losses.

And here you are, actually letting Li Cheng go there alone?

Isn’t this sending him to his death?

What grudge is there to warrant such eagerness for his doom?

Feng Wanli’s smile froze, “What are you talking about? You don’t know how powerful Li Cheng is!”

Qin Wuhun shook his head, “Stop setting up Li Cheng, let’s take our time with this matter!”

“I might as well tell you the truth, though I’m afraid you won’t believe it. A Golden Immortal from later stages descended to the Lower World and was blasted away by one arrow from Li Cheng!” Feng Wanli added.

Qin Wuhun looked at Feng Wanli as if he were a fool, that look said: Do I look stupid to you?

A Heavenly Immortal, defeating a Golden Immortal?

It’s an impossible feat.

“Look, I knew you wouldn’t believe it. Forget it, Li Cheng, let’s go find Mu Xingzhi. This sort of thing, probably only people from your Heavenly Mechanism Sect will believe,” Feng Wanli said.

He had noticed before, that people from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect placed an almost blind trust in Li Cheng.

He suspected that even if he claimed Li Cheng could thrash a Daluo Golden Immortal, those guys would believe it without a second thought.

“No need, the Black and White Elders are here!”

As Li Cheng’s words ended, the figures of the Black and White Elders appeared before the three of them.

After not seeing them for more than two months, the Black and White Elders had actually undergone the Loose Immortal Tribulation four more times, reaching the twenty tribulations mark!

“The elders are injured?”

Li Cheng frowned, judging from their aura, it was clear that they had not fully recovered from their injuries.

This was a Duo of twenty-tribulation Loose Immortals, who could greatly increase their combat power when working together, and even battle Profound Immortals without issue—they were actually injured!

Old Bai nonchalantly nodded, “It’s nothing serious, we’ve mostly recovered.

We just heard that over at Heaven Secret Peak they were talking about how all the scouts monitoring the Ten Thousand Evils Cave have died!”

Black Elder took over the conversation, “We heard you’ve returned. Come, let’s take a trip to the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, the three of us!”

Qin Wuhun’s gaze shifted back and forth between the three, wondering what was going on with the Heavenly Mechanism Sect?

Was everyone there so overconfident?

Especially these twin-looking old men, who were clearly injured by people from the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, and now that Li Cheng had returned, they wanted to jump into action again?

Li Cheng nodded, “That’s exactly what I had in mind, having the Elders along would be best!”

Qin Wuhun’s brows raised at that, two twenty-tribulation Loose Immortals, taking Li Cheng as their pivot?

In his view, although Li Cheng was profoundly enigmatic, two twenty-tribulation Loose Immortals, comparable to Profound Immortals, would undoubtedly be even more powerful!

So, wasn’t this getting it backwards?

Could Li Cheng truly slay Golden Immortals?

“Which direction is it in?” As Qin Wuhun was still marvelling in disbelief, Li Cheng had already asked.

The two elders simultaneously pointed towards the east, “More than three million miles away, there’s a dangerous land called Devil Abyss, and the main base of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave is hidden within it.”

Devil Abyss, Li Cheng had only read about it in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s archives and had never visited it. According to the records, the origin of Devil Abyss is extremely ancient, even traceable to several hundred million years ago, the previous era!

The records may not be accurate, but over the millions of years, many Demon Gate forces have chosen Devil Abyss as their headquarters. It was hard to believe that there was nothing odd about the place.

Moreover, the current Demon Gate forces dared not to select Devil Abyss as their base, as it was said to contain great terror.

Whether there was great terror was unknown, but Demon Beasts roamed rampant within the Devil Abyss, and even ordinary Loose Immortals would not dare to venture recklessly into it.

It was indeed unexpected for the Ten Thousand Evils Cave to choose such a place for their lair.

Li Cheng nodded and grasped the two elders’ shoulders, one with each hand, and in the next moment, all three vanished from sight, leaving only the ripples of space fluctuating in their place.

“Immortal Spirit Step!” Qin Wuhun’s eyebrows shot up, “No wonder Li Cheng dared to go alone. With Immortal Spirit Step by his side, he can go anywhere!”

Speaking of which, Qin Wuhun looked toward Feng Wanli, “When he returns, we must find a way to invite him to join us. With the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map, it seems we really have a chance!”

Feng Wanli nodded, “Now do you believe it? Don’t worry, Li Cheng is easy to talk to.”

After taking more than thirty steps with the two elders in tow, a chasm several thousand miles long appeared in the land ahead!

The canyon was bottomless, looking down into it was like peering into pitch darkness, like a slightly closed eye embedded in the ground, profound and mysterious.

“There is a giant pit over ten miles wide in the center of the canyon, which is the real Devil Abyss. The lair of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave is hidden inside it,” Old Bai said.

Li Cheng nodded; his Immortal Sense had already detected the pit, and around it, he discovered traces of an Immortal Array.

But the Immortal Array had been destroyed, and judging from the remaining aura, it had been destroyed no more than a day ago.

The trio arrived at the edge of the pit and saw that inside the pit was completely dark, but there was airflow emerging from within.

Li Cheng observed with his Immortal Sense and found that the pit was more than a hundred miles deep, vertically downward, with a vast space at the bottom that seemed endless.

The three of them jumped straight down, and upon landing, they looked up in unison towards the ‘sky’!

The ‘sky’ here was dozens of miles high, and it was actually reddish ‘ground’, with stalactites of various sizes hanging everywhere in the ‘sky’.

“Immortal Sense is not being suppressed, which indicates this is not an Ancient Ruins. It’s truly a mystery how it formed, seemingly boundless.”

Within a twenty thousand mile radius, there were plenty of Demon Beasts and treasures of heaven and earth, but there was no visible edge.

“I can’t sense any cultivators, which is strange!” Black Elder said suspiciously.

Since it was the main base of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, one would expect to see cultivators flying about everywhere.

Li Cheng pointed to the right, “There are traces of formations and foundations over there, previously a city, but it seems the city has been moved!”

The two expressed astonishment, “To move a city along with its buildings? That’s a huge undertaking!”

Li Cheng took the lead, arriving at the site of the former city, and saw that there was a large pit over twenty miles wide on the ground, more than ten meters deep, with orderly surroundings and bottom.

“This must be the main base of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, right? To move even the city, that’s not good news, and who knows where it was moved to,” Old Bai said.

Black Elder nodded in agreement, “I’ve seen empty buildings before, but moving the whole building is something else. The Ten Thousand Evils Cave has gone too far, not sparing even the foundations!”

Li Cheng looked up at the reddish earthy sky, “The Ten Thousand Evils Cave must have realized that the powerhouses of the Southern Domain had their sights on their lair, so they killed all the scouts and moved their base, completely vanishing from the sight of the Southern Domain’s powerhouses.”

“The powerhouses of the Southern Domain can’t possibly gather at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect for long. Once they leave, the Ten Thousand Evils Cave will surely retaliate wildly, and at that time, who knows how many forces will be extinguished by the Ten Thousand Evils Cave,” Old Bai lamented.

Li Cheng nodded, “We’ll have to try to track them! Now that the Ten Thousand Evils Cave has fully concealed themselves in the shadows and the Southern Domain’s forces have completely enraged them, it’s too dangerous.”

“Hmm, a thorough search will definitely yield some remaining clues!” Black Elder flew to that foundation and began to scrutinize it.

Suddenly, a bad feeling surged in Li Cheng’s heart, and he quickly grabbed Black Elder back through the air, “Be careful!”
