Chapter 478 Thirteen People? !

No matter how many doubts there are in their hearts, now that everyone has reached the abyss, they are still riding a tiger and cannot get out, so they must continue to explore the depths.

The lighting range was reduced to a radius of 200 meters to avoid irritating more creatures in the darkness, and everyone continued to explore downwards.

One hundred meters...two hundred meters...three hundred meters...

Many people were thinking silently in their hearts, becoming more and more shocked by the breadth and depth of this abyss.

If we continue going down like this, this abyss may even be able to contain the entire Xuande City!

Such an incredible terrain looks more like man-made than natural formation.

But for what reason and what goal were they pursuing to create such a large abyss?

Everyone looked at me, and then at you, and they all saw shock and confusion in each other's eyes.

No one knows the answer.

After descending another three hundred meters, the leading vice-captain stopped.

"If it continues to decline like this, who knows when it will end!"

The deputy captain said solemnly: "This abyss is so deep and so wide, but it has never been recorded on the map of the Tianyuan Empire before. There is obviously a big problem."

"Even if we were to explore too deeply, our lives would still be in danger!"

"Even before we came, we were mentally prepared, but it still had to be a necessary and valuable sacrifice."

"Can you just accept that you died here inexplicably?"

Everyone was silent, they all had the answer in their hearts.

At present, the failure of the Mahakala Divine Sect is basically a doomed outcome. The purpose of exploring the abyss is for Lin Dong, and even more for the truth.

If the risk is too high, it's not worth it.

Even beings like Su Chen and Xiao Ningxue, who were deeply bound to Lin Dong's interests, would not risk their lives to explore the abyss.

They want to get some benefits from the Lin family to meet their own cultivation needs, but they don't really want to sacrifice their lives for the Lin family.

Seeing everyone's silence, the vice-captain continued: "How about I cast a spell and explore downward to see how big this place is."

"Five hundred meters, eight hundred meters, one thousand two hundred meters! All within the acceptable range."

"But if we want to continue downward, it would be a bit too scary. We might as well withdraw first, select the death row inmates in the prison, and use them to explore the way first."

"If something can be done, we will form a sharp knife team to assist the head of the Lin family and investigate the truth behind the scenes."

And if the risk is too high...

Everyone looked at each other tacitly.

They care more about their own lives than the so-called truth and the head of the Lin family.

Anyway, if Lin Dong really fails to come back, the ones who are really worried are the Lin family, a family with thousands of years of history. They have little to do with this interest, and at most they will suffer some anger.

So why not?

It's better than losing your life.

The Supreme Elder of Liushui Jiuqumen took the initiative to speak and made the final decision.

"I think your words are very reasonable."

Everyone nodded and said, "Me too."

In this way, the vice-captain's suggestion was accepted by everyone.

The vice-captain was also unequivocal, summoning a ball of white and throwing it towards the abyss under his feet.

"This is the flash technique. After my improvement, I can freely control the timing of the flash burst."

"I will make the spell burst out once every three breaths, five breaths, and ten breaths."

"With the brilliance of the flash and the darkness of the abyss, we will definitely be able to observe the existence of the flash."

"If after ten breaths, we really see the existence of flash, it means..."

While the vice-captain was still explaining, everyone experienced the first burst of light.

Sure enough, I saw a very obvious white light blooming two to three hundred meters below my feet, visible to the naked eye.

There seemed to be something ready to move in the darkness, and all the powerful men present felt a hint of threat.

The flashing ball continued to fall at a very fast speed. After a few breaths, it dropped another few hundred meters, and then bloomed again.

Everyone watched quietly and waited for a long time, but no one saw the third explosion.

The flash ball must have been destroyed by some kind of creature in the dark.

The vice-captain was not surprised by this result. He rolled out a flash ball again, glanced at everyone, and this time chose to set the first flash burst ten breaths later.

Ten breaths passed, and a flash of light erupted. Everyone could clearly see a small white dot blooming a thousand meters away, and then disappeared in an instant!

"It seems the danger down there is far greater than imagined."

The vice-captain frowned. Following the previous experience, he was targeting the flash ball this time.

Even so, it was still not discovered what exactly destroyed the flash ball.

It is conceivable that the opponent must be an extremely dangerous existence, and it is likely to be a mysterious creature that can be compared with the ninth-level powerhouse.

Even if it wasn't, there was something special about it in this darkness, something dangerous that no one could feel.

After receiving such an answer, everyone's heart dropped.

It is impossible to continue exploring. As the saying goes, a dead Taoist friend will not die but a poor Taoist. It is impossible for them to risk their lives for strangers.

"Let's go back and send the death row prisoners to explore the road first. Once we find out what is going on here, we will conduct further investigation."

"During this period, you can also ask the court to see if they know about the existence of this abyss."

Everyone agreed with this and flew up impatiently.

The oppression of this abyss was too strong, even if everyone present was a dragon and phoenix among men, a hero and a genius, they still couldn't hold it.

On the way, there was no accident, and everyone returned safely to the outside of the abyss.

As the captain, Elder Ye smiled at everyone and arranged the next matters.

It was mainly to allocate some responsibilities and corresponding interests, and by the way, he proposed to hold a meeting in three days to discuss some major matters.

For example, how to deal with the remaining members of the Mahakala God Cult. Xuande City was temporarily stable, but other cities around were still in chaos.

Not to mention the villages and towns that were like stars, which have now turned into hell on earth.

There are still many things that everyone needs to deal with.

In the end, Elder Ye subconsciously counted the number of people. Very good, all thirteen members of the sharp knife team were present, without any questions...

"Thirteen people?!"

Elder Ye widened his eyes. When he went down, he counted the number of people. There were only twelve people in the team. Where did the thirteenth person come from? !

"Wait, don't leave yet!"

"Including myself, there are thirteen of us who just came up from below, and the sharp knife team should only have twelve people!"

Elder Ye looked very ugly, and said seriously: "We are afraid that we are entangled by something."
