Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

To be on the safe side, Gu Chi and the others prepared a teleportation array so that if they really encountered any danger, they could cross the void and escape.

Endless dragon energy surged like a tide. They didn't dare to jump down directly, but just walked down the steep cliff little by little, very slowly.

The further they went down, the darker it became, until it was so dark that they couldn't see their hands in front of their faces. Moreover, their spiritual power could only detect the scenery within a radius of forty or fifty meters, and was severely suppressed.

"Oh my goodness, this abyss was opened up by humans?!"

Murong Zhixiu cried out in surprise, discovering many traces of knife and axe cuts on the cliff wall of the abyss.

Jiang Chengji was also shocked when he saw this result. Who dared to disturb the nest of the Thousand Dragons?

On the way, they encountered the Taiyin Jade Coffin again. It was crystal clear and sparkling, the only light in the endless darkness, like a bright lamp.

Every once in a while, it would be pushed up by the surging dragon energy, and then slowly sink, repeating this cycle, floating up and down in this abyss.

"I just saw that her eyelashes seemed to blink!" Murong Zhixiu shuddered.

"Don't think too much. If he could really be resurrected, why didn't he resurrect with such a good opportunity?" Jiang Chengji whispered.

Gu Chi remained silent, gazing at the Sleeping Beauty in the Taiyin Jade Coffin.

In a trance, she seemed to see a woman with a cold temperament and stunning beauty, standing in the void, looking at her with a faint smile.

In the blink of an eye, that beautiful figure turned into clear light and dissipated in the wind, like a dream or bubble.

Gu Chi shook his head and continued to move down.

The Taiyin Jade Coffin was pushed upward by the rolling dragon energy, while they were sinking, approaching the bottom of the abyss little by little. Opportunities and dangers coexist, and they wanted to give it a try.

One thousand meters, two thousand meters, three thousand meters...

They were a little frightened. They had gone down more than 4,000 meters and still hadn't reached the bottom of the abyss. It seemed as if there was no end.

Jiang Chengji was walking in front, and at this moment he had to stop and deduce carefully.

After a long while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The current position is relatively safe. We can continue to descend for a distance."

Five thousand meters, six thousand meters...

After descending to more than 9,000 meters, they finally felt that they were almost at the end.

"Everyone, be careful." Jiang Chengji reminded them that they were about to reach the bottom of the abyss and not too far from the nest of the thousand dragons. They might encounter some danger.

After descending more than 400 meters, they finally landed on the ground. An ancient and desolate atmosphere hit them in the face, as if they had suddenly arrived in ancient times.

The bottom of the abyss is not that dark. There are scattered fragments of heavenly spirit stones, shining brightly and bringing some light to this place.

Looking around, the surroundings were very empty. It didn't seem like we were deep underground, but rather like we were on an ancient battlefield.

"what is that?"

Just a hundred meters ahead, they could see the outline of a dilapidated building. They walked forward quickly and actually saw a building outside the Thousand Dragons' Nest. This was completely beyond their expectations.

"It looks like an altar."

"It has collapsed severely and may be a relic from ancient times."

Before they got close, they could already see that it was an ancient altar, engraved with traces of time.

"Why is there an altar here? What is it used for?"

"It can't be used to worship the Thousand Dragons Transformation Dragon Nest, right?"

"Don't tell me, it's really possible."

Several people climbed up the dilapidated altar and searched every corner carefully, but unfortunately they found nothing.

"Wang!"

The big black dog suddenly screamed, and its face almost touched the ground.

Murong Zhixiu was startled by it, and then he quickly lay down and observed it carefully, fearing that he would miss any opportunity.

Gu Chi looked back and said, "What are you doing? You are not allowed to sleep here."

"This is a Dao pattern..."

The big black dog was almost trembling, and its pair of big copper bell eyes stared at the blue bricks of the altar. There were many fine lines and stripes on it, which could not be seen at all if you didn't look carefully.

It stroked the veins with its large claws and transmitted its thoughts through its divine consciousness, saying, "These veins are extremely exquisite. Although they were carved by humans, they are not at all sloppy, as if they were formed naturally. If I could figure out even one-tenth or one-twelve of them, I would benefit from them for the rest of my life."

Gu Chi's heart moved, and he said, "Old Black, can you repair this altar? Or figure out what it is used for?"

"There is no way to repair it. The way this Taoist pattern works is too mysterious. I don't understand it at all. I need to study it slowly." The big black dog shook his head and carefully copied all the patterns on the altar. As if he had obtained some amazing treasure, his mouth was almost grinning behind his ears and he kept grinning foolishly.

Gu Chi and his companions searched carefully here for a long time. After confirming that there was nothing useful, they left with regret and continued to walk towards the Thousand Dragons' Nest in front.

The dragon energy there is surging, like vast and boundless rivers, rushing endlessly.

In front, nine large holes were lined up in a row, shining brightly, and the rolling dragon energy was rushing out from those nine large holes.

Jiang Chengji observed carefully, and at the same time, he made hand gestures and seals to deduce continuously, and finally he took the lead and walked forward.

There are nine dragon caves in total, which are interconnected and connected to the dragon nest of thousands of dragons.

Feeling the rolling dragon energy rushing through their bodies, everyone seemed to be baptized, their pores dilated and their whole bodies relaxed.

Unconsciously, they walked forward for a distance, and tacitly stopped talking and used telepathy instead.

"What's that smell?" The big black dog twitched his nose.

They walked for more than ten miles against the pressure of dragon energy, and finally came to a place full of caves, like a honeycomb.

This is a huge nest, with divine light blooming everywhere, and extremely rich and pure spiritual energy surging, indicating that there are a large number of heavenly spirit stones here.

It goes without saying that that must be the Thousand Dragons' Nest!

They were still three or four miles away, but they didn't dare to move forward. They could vaguely see a huge sky spirit stone floating up and down inside the Thousand Dragons' Nest, and it seemed that something was sealed inside.

"Damn, why do I look like a human?"

"It looks like a human to me too."

Everyone was dumbfounded to find that inside those huge heavenly spirit stones, there were human-shaped creatures sealed. They didn't know whether they were humans or monsters, dead or alive.

"I heard that some ancient freaks would seal themselves up and wait until the necessary moment to come out and compete. Could the ones sealed inside be the so-called ancient freaks?" Gu Chi made this guess.
