"Lan Ge!" Lin Feng and the others didn't move, but they looked at the mountain where Mo Ding had thrown Lan Ge. They were so sad for him. A moment before, he was with them, and now he was gone. Mo Ding had killed him in the blink of an eye.
In the outside world, apart from Saints, Lan Ge was considered a terrifying cultivator, he was a genius of the Thunder Shrine. But in the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell, his life was so fragile.
Lin Feng and the others felt powerless and weak.
"Master!" At that moment, Hua Qian Yu looked at the musician and shouted. The others were astonished. She surprisingly took the initiative to call out to him.
"Master!" The music suddenly stopped and the musician slowly turned around. When he looked at Hua Qian Yu, Lin Feng and the others were stunned. That person wasn't a demon, he was a human. It was an old man, who looked perplexed.
However, when Hua Qian Yu looked at him, she shuddered. How was this possible? What was he doing in the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell?
"High Priest! I'm Hua Qian Yu from the Celestial Sound Shrine!" said Hua Qian Yu. Gigantic sound waves rolled out. The High Priest of her Celestial Sound Shrine was there!
Lin Feng and the others were astonished; that old man was from the Celestial Sound Shrine?!
"High Priest?" whispered the old man. He looked at Hua Qian Yu and asked, "Who am I?"
"He's amnesic!" Lin Feng and the others were astonished. People in here all seemed to become amnesic and forgot who they were.
"High Priest! You're the High Priest of the Celestial Sound Shrine!" said Hua Qian Yu. She was speechless. She didn't know the High Priest's name. She had only seen him in memories. It was the first time she had seen him in reality!
"Is that so?" said the old man, he was muttering to himself, "Where is the Celestial Sound Shrine?"
A strong wind started blowing, and the old man disappeared. The figure in black clothes next to him rose up in the air and said, "Master, wait for me!"
"He's calling him Master, is that normal?" wondered Lin Feng and the others. Their eyes were glittering. Very quickly, the two disappeared from the desolate mountain range.
"We must leave this place," said Ye Zhi Yun. They all nodded. The demons had appeared without anybody noticing them a moment before. They couldn't stay here.
"I want to go back," said Hua Qian Yu suddenly. Everybody's faces stiffened.
They had come to the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell without knowing what was awaiting them. It was really horrible. It seemed like the only possible outcome for them was death.
The High Priest of the Shrine had disappeared for so many years, he was stuck in the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell, and now he had become amnesic! Hua Qian Yu didn't feel brave anymore. She didn't want to stay there, she wanted to leave.
However, could she go back now?
"Going back now is too dangerous," said Ye Zhi Yun softly.
"No, I want to go back!" said Hua Qian Yu. Seeing the High Priest of the Celestial Sound Shrine had terrified her. She knew that the High Priest of the Celestial Sound Shrine was a terrifyingly strong cultivator. If he had become amnesic, she had no hope.
"Will you come back with me?" asked Hua Qian Yu.
Ye Zhi Yun shook her head. She looked at Lin Feng and the others, they said, "We're here already. Even if we go back, we might die. Nobody knows."
"I agree," said the fat man. Hua Qian Yu didn't say anything. She turned around and left quickly. She wanted to leave as rapidly as possible.
Suddenly, a gigantic hand appeared at the foot of the mountain, Hua Qian Yu's face changed drastically. She turned around, she wanted to escape, but the gigantic hand grabbed her.
"No!" shouted Hua Qian Yu furiously. However, the hand suddenly disappeared and Hua Qian Yu along with it.
Lin Feng and the others were astonished and speechless. Their lives were truly in peril there.
"Let's go," said Ye Zhi Yun. Lin Feng and the others tried to keep calm and continued moving forwards, they had no choice.
Lin Feng and the others crossed a valley filled with a cadaverous Qi from the deaths of many people. There were some dazzling weapons as well, their Qi was formidable.
"Another group?" Lin Feng and the others bumped into another group. The group with whom they had agreed to stay near at the very beginning had disappeared a while before already! The group they were facing at that moment was only composed of three people.
"There are Saint's Weapons and corpses, but those corpses haven't decomposed, they aren't even deteriorated, those people were incredibly strong," said someone, looking at the corpses. He seemed enthusiastic.
"Don't go down though, it could be extremely dangerous," someone warned him.
"We're in the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell, danger is everywhere. We're very weak, they died in front of us, and we couldn't do much," said that person. "Even if it's dangerous, we have to try. We have to become stronger, that's the only way for us to survive."
He flashed into the valley and landed in front of a Saint's Weapon, a bloody demon blade. He waved his hand and pulled at the weapon.
Peerless blood lights suddenly shot towards him and cut his body into two, he didn't have any time to react. Even his soul was destroyed. Lin Feng and the others had seen that he was vigilant, but it hadn't been enough.
The blood-red demon blade shook and hummed before calming down. They wouldn't forget that sight for a long time.
"Let's go," said Lin Feng. They didn't know where they were, they just knew that they were in the depths of the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell, and now leaving was impossible.
The two cultivators of the other group followed Lin Feng and the others, but didn't talk to them, staying in the distance behind them. Lin Feng and the others understood what those people were thinking. If Lin Feng and the others faced danger while moving forwards, those two people would have time to leave!
"We can't afford losing any more people," said Lin Feng, stopping and looking at Ye Zhi Yun, Chi Lian Shan, and the fat guy. Two people had died in a short time. They couldn't afford to lose anyone else.
Ye Zhi Yun hoped nobody would die again. They initially didn't want Lan Ge and Hua Qian Yu to die either, but they weren't strong enough, so they hadn't been able to save them.
Lin Feng slowly turned around and gazed at the two people behind them. He said icily, "Are you guys moving forwards?"
The two of them stared back at Lin Feng coldly.
"If you don't, then die!" He released Death Dao to surround those people. They frowned. Daimon from the World Clan controlled Death Dao?
"Indeed, if you want to use us to progress safely, die!" said Chi Lian Shan icily. He jumped forwards and oppressed them.
"If you don't, then die!" said the fat guy. He wasn't smiling anymore, either. The two others didn't stand a chance against the four of them.
"How cruel!" spat one of them icily. They landed in front of Lin Feng and the others, and started running away, heading into the mountains.
———
Nothing had happened for some time. Then, a gigantic coffin-shaped building appeared in the sky. It looked like a coffin which would have been used for a demon king. It looked like a palace too… it looked a Pit of Hell!
Lin Feng and the others stopped and watched it. Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell!
Was the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell named after that thing? What was inside? Was there really a demon king inside?
"What to do?" whispered Ye Zhi Yun. They had arrived in front of a gigantic floating coffin. Her soul was being oppressed…
"We're not the only ones here," said Lin Feng, gazing into the distance. There were some people in the distance on the other side. It was like a demon had attracted them there.
"Let's go inside?" asked Chi Lian Shan.
Lin Feng was grim and said, "I think that if we don't go inside, we'll never be able to get out, anyway."
"What you mean is that getting inside is our only hope if we want to get out of the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell?" Ye Zhi Yun asked Lin Feng.
"There are only two paths: the one in front of us, or the one we just went through. If you want to go back, I'll come with you and try," Lin Feng said to his group. Ye Zhi Yun's face froze. Going back the same way?
"We have only one option, then," Ye Zhi Yun smiled. She looked at the nest of devils and said, "Maybe we're going to die soon."
Their hearts felt heavy. They might be going to die. Nobody could tell…
