Chapter 550: Chapter 494: The Third Layer of the Abyss_2

Xu Mu was anxious. He didn’t know what caused this suction, nor whether he could withstand its assault. He began to question whether he should go on, but there was no way back.

Just as Xu Mu was about to give up, a powerful light suddenly radiated from deep within the cave. The brightness illuminated the entire cave in an instance, almost blinding Xu Mu.

Following that, an immense force emerged from the light, lifting Xu Mu’s body instantly. He felt as though his body was growing heavier, as if both his body and soul were about to be crushed.

The light and the force vanished in an instant, and Xu Mu found himself back on the ground. His body felt completely drained, but his soul felt nourished, filled with newfound strength and vigor.

Xu Mu realized he had passed this round of tests.

The cave wasn’t perilous at all, instead, it was a place of opportunity. Its suction and light were there to test his will and capacity. Only those who passed the test can seize the opportunity here.

Xu Mu rejoiced silently about holding onto the chance and his heart was brimming with anticipation and confidence for future exploration.

He understood that the Abyss Secret Realm harbored more opportunities and treasures. As long as he tread carefully, he would surely gain more.

During his exploration in the Abyss Secret Realm, Xu Mu encountered a female disciple from another sect, named Qin Yun. She was dressed in a green robe, possessing an unforgettably compelling and elegant aura.

When Xu Mu met Qin Yun she was in dire straits. He hastened to assess the situation. However, Qin Yun eyed him warily, seemingly disinclined to trust him.

“Who are you? What are you doing here?” Qin Yun asked coldly.

Xu Mu chuckled inwardly, realizing the misunderstanding. He wasn’t offended and patiently clarified, “I am Xu Mu, a cultivator too. I am here to look for opportunities and treasures.”

Qin Yun didn’t lower her guard, she asked skeptically, “What are you doing here? Are you here for that legend?”

Xu Mu was bewildered, he didn’t know about any legend, so he asked, “What legend?”

Seeing Xu Mu was oblivious to the legend, Qin Yun explained, “It’s rumored that there’s a mystical treasure hidden in this secret realm, which can grant the beholder immense power and mastery.”
