As the people were lost in their thoughts, someone blurted out fiercely, ”I would rather die trying than wait for my death here!”
”Yeah, it's better to die fighting than fall into the Dark Abyss!” said Lu Xu.
Even though their efforts might be in vain, if they were given a choice, they would rather charge out of the golden barrier and fight the undead until the end!
”Count me in,” exclaimed Li Yujian.
Feeling depressed and hopeless was not something a Super Magician should do. They should be dying gloriously on the battlefield instead, dragging a few Corpse Officials and Phantom Generals with them, or even kill a Ruler Undead. It would be their glory!
”Everyone, let's calm down first!” said the mysterious man.
”We're not calming down! Even if we're about to die, we are going to die a glorious death! If Salan is really among us putting up an act, we'll drag him out there with us, and we'll see whether the asshole or us is going to die first!” cursed the Elder of the Hunter Union.
”Let's fight our way out of here, but we're not simply trying to get ourselves killed. We've just received some information from a reliable source. The Dark Abyss might be deadly, so deadly that even Lu Huan and the Nether Bone Ruler could not escape from it, yet it doesn't mean we can't go into it!” the mysterious man told the people on the clock tower.
The words immediately caught everyone's attention, and their eyes began to flicker.
-It's possible to go into the Dark Abyss?
-There's actually a way to enter the Dark Abyss?-
Even a strong Magician like Lu Huan was sucked into it! They could not even tell if he was still alive. No one was stronger than Lu Huan among them, they would most likely die if they were to jump into the Dark Abyss!
”We can now confirm that the Dark Abyss is the Ancient King's imperial tomb. He created the pit of death two thousand years ago when he fell into an eternal sleep, just so no one would disturb his peace,” said the mysterious man.
The person who had sent him the letter had verified the piece of information. The fact that the Ancient King's imperial tomb was located under the Dark Abyss was incredibly shocking. It explained why no one had managed to locate the tomb after so many years!
The ancestor of the undead, Ying Zheng, was the emperor with the greatest ambition ever in the thousands of years old Magic Civilization. His talent in the Earth Element was incredibly shocking. The perfect condition of the Great Wall of China that was still holding the demon creatures off in the north was one of his greatest achievements.
A great talent when alive, but a terrifying ghost when dead. It was the perfect description for the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Ying Zheng!
The ability to place his imperial tomb under the Dark Abyss was still shocking to the Magicians from the current era!
”No one, including the strongest Magician, is allowed to step into the imperial tomb, yet there is a group of people that the Dark Abyss won't reject. They are the people of the villages!” said the mysterious man excitedly, while pointing at Fang Gu.
Everyone quickly shifted their attention to Fang Gu, who was also quite surprised himself. He glanced at the mysterious man with a confused look.
”The undead will not attack the people from the dangerous villages, as they are the descendants of the Ancient King. The Dark Abyss will destroy everything, stopping every living thing that tries to invade the imperial tomb. However, the door of the imperial tomb is always open to the people from the villages,” said the mysterious man.
If they were able to capture a glimpse of light when they completely lost hope, it felt like they suddenly had something to look forward to. It was worth the try, at least it was better than waiting for their death helplessly!
