Chapter 2930 - A Dark Place (1/2)
The long, bright lanterns only led in a singular direction. They had been traveling all that time but had yet to see hide nor hair of Nine Thousand King or Moon Shadow God. It meant they had to have gone that way.
“Moon Shadow God was the wife of Crow Sky Dog,” Ancient Abyss Grandmaster said. “She must know quite a few of Sacred’s secrets. It is not surprising that she was able to go through this.”
“If they were able to through this way, there is no reason why we cannot do the same,” Yang Yun Sheng said. “We should just push on and brute force our way through.”
“I agree,” Ancient Abyss Grandmaster said. “Forcing our way forward is the only way, but we should ensure we are prepared.” He waved his sleeves and took out a white umbrella that looked like a jade bone.
Ancient Abyss Grandmaster opened the umbrella. The umbrella started to drop white holy light. It covered approximately 30 feet of the area around them.
“This is called Shining Umbrella,” Ancient Abyss Grandmaster said. “It has light bai sema power. Perhaps it will work against the pervasive dark. Why don’t you guys come with us under the umbrella?” He looked at the big and small goldfish and said, “These two goldfish are two big. The Shining Umbrella won’t cover them. Why don’t we just leave them here and go on ahead?”
“Thank you for your good intention, Grandmaster. Since I brought them this far, I cannot just leave them behind. Grandmaster, you can go on ahead. I will search for another way through this mess.” Han Sen was not willing to let go of the goldfish family just yet.
It was not like Han Sen had a strong bond with them. It was because they were creatures that belonged to Sacred. They likely knew more about Sacred than anyone else present.
Ancient Abyss Grandmaster tried to convince him. Han Sen kept insisting on bringing the goldfish family, so there was nothing else he could say. He raised the Shining Umbrella and went into the darkness with Yang Yun Sheng and the others.
Han Sen saw the Shining Umbrella’s bai sema keep colliding with the darkness. The light of the umbrella was fairly suppressed. There were only six more feet of the radius left for them. Ancient Abyss Grandmaster and the others were all squeezed together. It barely kept them all protected on the inside.
The bai sema kept quivering in the dark like it was going to fall apart at any second. It was unknown whether or not they would make it through to reach the next long, bright lantern.
The distance between the two bright lanterns was 60 to 90 feet. After Ancient Abyss Grandmaster and the others walked a few steps into the dark, they were gone. It was like they had been consumed by the darkness.
Han Sen looked at the other side with the next bright lantern. As he gazed upon it, he likened it to a firefly. Yet, he was not able to see what was under the lantern.
“Ancient Abyss Grandmaster and the others barely attempted it. They just walked into the dark. They were clearly prepared for this. How can I get the goldfish through it though?” Han Sen was not going to be like Ancient Abyss Grandmaster and just make use of a treasure to walk right in.
Han Sen hesitated a moment before he brought out his Cold Light Sword. He walked in front of the darkness and slashed out some pink sword lights through the darkness.
The sword lights ran out into the darkness, but they vanished within a second. They did not create anything. There was no reaction.
Han Sen frowned. He slowly put the Cold Light Sword’s tip into the darkness. The sword barely touched the darkness. Han Sen felt the tip of the Cold Light Sword being twisted by some sort of power. He almost lost his grip on the blade.
Han Sen quickly removed the Cold Light Sword from the dark. The Cold Light Sword’s sword light had a few cracks in it.
“That is very scary darkness.” Han Sen gasped. He was shocked that the Cold Light Sword, which was almost as good as a true god weapon, had been affected like that. If that dark power was applied to his body, it was difficult to imagine what might happen.
