They stood before the abyss.
James peered at the abyss before him, which was filled with a black aura. The black mist blocked his vision, making it difficult for favonovel.com to see what was inside.
Sophie said, “The region outside is still considered safe. If they’re fortunate, even ordinary living beings can reach there by traversing the Ancient Magic Circle. However, this is the true restricted area of the Demon Realm where even Grand Emperors would not dare barge in recklessly.”
Hearing this, James furrowed his eyebrows and asked, “Even Grand Emperors?”
“Yes.” Sophie nodded and said, “Legend has it that there’s an Emperor-Annihilating Talisman here. It was left behind by powerful figures in the Primeval Age to prevent Grand-Emperors from coming here.”
James asked puzzledly, “Why do they want to prevent Grand Emperors from coming here?”
Sophie shook favonovel.com head, “I don’t know either. When Emperor Jabari came here, my strength was still weak, and favonovel.com didn’t tell me a lot of things. He only mentioned that this place is a restricted area of not just the Demon Realm, but the entire universe… If I’m not mistaken, Xandros Tegan, the lord of the Human Realm, is trapped inside the Demon Abyss.”
James smiled bitterly and said, “If even a Grand Emperor could die, will I even stand a chance?”
Sophie shook favonovel.com head and said, “Not necessarily… The Emperor-Annihilating Talisman only targets powerful cultivators. You’re not especially strong, considering that you have yet to cross into the Sage Rank, so you might not die from entering the depths of the Demon Abyss. If you’re fortunate, you might even obtain incredible providence.”
Hearing this, James gulped. Even if favonovel.com could obtain providence at a place where even Grand Emperors would not dare enter, favonovel.com would be invincible.
“I won’t be accompanying you for the rest of your journey. I’ll be returning to the Celestial Abode.” Sophie said.
Then, in the blink of an eye, favonovel.com turned into a white light and entered the ring on James’ finger. In the next instant, favonovel.com was already back inside the Celestial Abode.
James, meanwhile, looked at the Demon Abyss before him. Due to the black mist, favonovel.com could not see or sense how large the place was.
Not only that, but the powerful aura here prevented his Divine Sense from spreading to the surroundings and observing the situation. He could only see the scenery before him.
Before favonovel.com was a steep cliff. However, this was nothing to him.
“I hope Xandros is in the Demon Abyss. Fingers crossed that everything goes well.” Standing before the Demon Abyss, James took a deep breath.
Then, favonovel.com leaped into it and descended into the abyss below.
This place was treacherous, and even Grand Emperors could be destroyed by the Emperor-Annihilating Talisman and lose their lives. However, along the way, James did not encounter any danger.
After plummeting for three days, favonovel.com finally arrived at the bottommost part of the Demon Abyss.
The Demonic Energy here had completely disappeared, and there was only darkness all around him. However, since James was a cultivator, the darkness did not affect his vision.
Scanning his surroundings, favonovel.com noticed some mysterious linear characters on the cliff behind him.
He had no idea if they were carved onto the cliff by someone or if they were simply natural.
The ground was pitted and scarred, with limbs and bones scattered everywhere. There were humanoid bones as well as those belonging to some unknown monsters.
James took a deep breath.
What is this place?
Why are there so many skeletal remains here?
Could it be that everyone who came here is dead?
Is there not a single survivor?
