In Wan Beast City, all the inhabitants lived in trepidation.
The city, divided into two halves, floated upwards.
Gradually, they drew closer…
With bursts of rumbling, the fractured edges began to merge.
Many collapsed city walls also floated up, returning to their original positions.
The people of Wan Beast City had spent a year and hadn't even repaired one percent of the city walls, yet in a few short minutes, they were completely restored.
And… this city had become a floating city.
After the repairs were complete, it did not land.
"Master, the seal suppressed by Wan Beast City has a problem. You should go take a look!"
The Wan Beast Seal transformed into a streak of light and appeared within Chu Tian's divine platform, taking the form of a plump young boy who spoke endearingly.
For the past while, Chu Tian had been focusing his attention on the tall building of the City Lord's Mansion.
The changes occurring there puzzled him.
The entire City Lord's Mansion had somehow managed to block divine soul probes.
Such a feat was not something an ordinary person could accomplish.
Furthermore, the strength of his divine soul was not something that could be easily blocked.
The person casting this spell here must be a cultivator at the Saint Body Realm or higher.
Moreover… it had to be a cultivator who primarily focused on the divine soul.
In the Sea of Death, it seemed only people from Hurricane City could achieve this.
Chu Tian guessed that everything happening here was definitely related to the Hurricane Soul Sect.
"Wei Jin, go help Miao Zuo. I'm going down to take a look!"
Chu Tian decided not to enter the City Lord's Mansion for now. He would first go to the location below Wan Beast City that the Beast Beast mentioned.
He knew… an old monster was sealed beneath this place, something that Little Dragon Girl had been coveting for a long time.
After speaking, he directly rushed out of Wan Beast City, turned his body, and plunged straight down below the city.
There was a massive abyss here, bottomless.
It turned out that Wan Beast City was resting atop this deep pit.
At this moment, this enormous abyss had been split in two by a blade mark.
In the very center, there was a smaller, bottomless cavern.
Chu Tian turned his body and arrived above the opening of that cavern.
Suddenly…
A powerful suction force from below pulled at Chu Tian's feet, dragging him down fiercely.
Chu Tian's body trembled violently, and he was alarmed.
He immediately reacted…
Activating the Power Resonance Secret Technique, silver light spots lit up layer by layer within his muscles.
Chu Tian stepped in the air, each step causing the void to vibrate.
Floating in the air, his body surged upwards.
He resisted the suction force, emitting dull thuds.
"What the hell is this?" Chu Tian cursed.
Here, his divine soul had detected nothing, yet the suction force grew stronger and stronger.
It was like an octopus, constantly spreading to his entire body.
Boom…
With his final step, Chu Tian even caused the void to collapse.
He was just about to summon Sui Xing, but it was already too late.
The suction force suddenly increased severalfold.
Chu Tian lost his footing and was instantly pulled into the cavern below.
His entire body plunged straight down.
Buzz buzz…
The sound of the wind in his ears grew louder and louder.
His falling speed also increased, becoming faster and faster.
At this moment, the pulling force that had enveloped Chu Tian disappeared.
Chu Tian tried to stop himself, attempting to fly out.
He discovered that there was a… forbidden flight zone here.
It was impossible to fly out.
Time passed second by second, for a full ten minutes…
Chu Tian was still falling, without any sign of stopping.
Moreover, his falling speed continued to increase, reaching an unbelievable velocity.
"What the heck… could this be a bottomless pit?"
Chu Tian realized that at this falling speed, if he suddenly hit the ground, even with his high physical resilience.
He would likely be flattened into a meat patty due to gravitational acceleration.
He couldn't continue like this. Firstly, regardless of whether this was a bottomless pit or if he would keep falling endlessly.
First… he needed to slow himself down.
He discovered that the terrifying intensity reached at this falling speed.
Merely enduring the surrounding pressure was already pushing his physical limits.
If he didn't slow down and continued to accelerate, he feared he would be crushed by this sense of gravity.
Chu Tian looked at the dark stone walls flashing past him and frowned slightly.
"Yueyue… Transform… Ursoc's Claw!"
Clang…
Chu Tian extended a hand.
Crack crack crack…
The moment his hand, equipped with Ursoc's Claw, touched the stone wall.
A large amount of sparks flew out.
Illuminating the dark space.
At the same time, Chu Tian felt the chill of the stone wall.
It was piercingly cold, like deep-sea ice.
"What kind of place is this? What is being suppressed down here? Little Dragon Girl has always desired it, but never explained the situation…
And this passage is so long… could it lead to the core of the Profound Heaven Star?
That shouldn't be right… as one gets closer to the core, it should become hotter…"
Chu Tian began to slow down using friction, gradually stopping his body.
Fortunately, there was no pulling force here, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to stop using this method.
He looked down.
However, he could see nothing.
It was pitch black and bottomless.
Even with his divine sense compressed, reaching a hundred kilometers in a straight line… he still couldn't see the bottom.
It truly was a bottomless pit.
Chu Tian looked back up.
He shook his head…
He had originally thought that by entering here, he would reach the sealed place mentioned by the Wan Beast Seal… Beast Beast.
Therefore, he hadn't rushed at first, planning to make a decision after landing.
Unfortunately, after more than ten minutes, he still hadn't landed.
This left him in a predicament where he couldn't go up or down.
To go up, he would have to climb…
But the speed of climbing was not proportional to the speed of falling.
It was impossible to say when he would be able to climb up.
Furthermore, would the terrifying pulling force still exist when he reached the cavern opening?
If it did, then everything would be in vain, and he would still be dragged in here.
Chu Tian increased his divine soul power again.
His eyes glowed white, and his boundless divine soul power was compressed again.
In an instant, it was compressed into an extremely thin, elongated line.
The extended distance also began to increase exponentially.
Now… he could only try to probe how much deeper it was below.
Then, he would use freefall to reach the ground quickly.
His divine sense would provide a warning, allowing him to decelerate in advance.
Otherwise, falling blindly, he might end up flattened into a meat patty, meeting a tragic end.
When his divine sense extended out three hundred kilometers, it reached its limit.
However… it still hadn't reached the bottom.
Chu Tian gritted his teeth and pulled his claw out of the rock wall.
Swish…
His body began to fall again.
Accelerating constantly…
Once the pressure became unbearable, Chu Tian would decelerate and start over.
