Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

"what……"

At this moment, a scream came from hundreds of feet above. A cultivator fell from the stone wall. No matter how he used his magic power, he could not fly. He flashed past Gu Chi's eyes, and his voice became weaker and weaker until he was completely swallowed by the darkness.

"very scary!"

Above, the monks who were carving along the dark red cliff were all horrified.

Gu Chi did not stop. Like a nimble gecko, he walked on the steep cliff as if it were flat ground. In a blink of an eye, he had climbed down more than 600 feet.

"Lucky, it turned out to be a fragment of Star Essence."

When he went more than 800 feet deep, Gu Chi saw a small piece of metal fragment on the cliff wall. It was shining with a crystal luster and all the imprints of the laws had not been erased by the power of time.

It didn't take long before she went down hundreds of feet further. She was almost in danger several times. The dark red stone walls in front of her were glowing with a faint blood light, and almost knocked her over several times.

When she arrived here, Gu Chi felt tremendous pressure. These dark red stone walls made her heart palpitate, and the aura emanating from them became increasingly suppressed.

Gu Chi didn't want to stop there. She could feel that the call from the unknown was getting closer and closer.

Just at this moment, she saw a bit of crystal appear on a small platform dozens of feet below.

After a short rest, she descended again.

When she came to the small platform protruding from the cliff and saw what that piece of crystal was, a look of shock suddenly appeared on her face.

It was a ring, glowing brightly in the darkness.

"Xuanzhu!"

Gu Chi felt the familiar aura of Xuan Zhu.

In addition, she also saw some dried bloodstains and inexplicable remnants of Taoism here, as if a peerless figure had been killed here.

There were a few strands of hair in a crack in the stone, which also retained the scent of Xuanzhu.

"What is there down there?" Gu Chi looked down into the abyss. She could feel a call from the unknown, but it didn't seem to be Xuan Zhu.

The rings, the hair, and the silver needles from before were all proof that Xuan Zhu had been here in the past. Even though countless years had passed, the aura and the imprint of the Dao had not been completely erased.

Gu Chi put away all the relics, not knowing what kind of fierce battle had taken place here in the past.

After a brief silence, Gu Chi decided to continue exploring downwards to see what was calling her.

Of course, this was also within a safe distance where she could escape in time if she encountered danger. If it was too dangerous, she would have no choice but to turn around and go back.

As she descended, she took out the black gold coffin of the big black dog and held it in her hand with caution.

This coffin sealed the Lying Cow Enlightenment Stone in the Temple of the God of War, the corpse of an ancient mighty being, and the mysterious Taoist platform obtained from the underground palace of the Jingzhou ruins. Its defensive power was unpredictable, and it was her greatest trump card for self-defense at the moment.

The rock wall is rough, with many cracks that look like dragon scales, and a terrifying aura is spreading.

After continuing to descend for a distance, Gu Chi opened the coffin lid, turned over and jumped in, allowing the coffin to fall freely and rapidly downwards.

"Bang, dang, dang!"

The coffin suffered a severe impact, and various patterns appeared on the rock walls, spreading out as ripples, and fell on the coffin like huge hammers weighing thousands of pounds.

"Om-"

Under Gu Chi's urging, the black gold coffin burst into brilliant golden light, with strands of golden silk from autumn silkworms swirling around it, blocking most of the attacks.

"Hey, what's going on down there? Why is there a ball of light shining? Could it be that another ancient immortal artifact has been unearthed?"

There were many people watching on the abyss, and they vaguely saw a little light flickering below.

Big Black Dog and Murong Zhixiu all had serious expressions on their faces. They knew that the noise must have been caused by Gu Chi, and they were all worried for her.

"Uuuuuu——"

The wind was howling, as cold as a knife. A black gold coffin shining with blazing golden light fell rapidly into the bottomless abyss like a meteor.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Chi heard some strange noises. He looked out from the gap between the coffin lids and saw a string of brilliant sparks right below.

At this time, her innate vision also emerged on its own, and the holy and ethereal moonlight enveloped her whole body.

In addition, the "Qingming Sutra" also started to operate autonomously. Purple arcs of electricity and lightning were intertwined on her body surface, as if she was wearing a suit of armor made of lightning.

"Ok?"

The purple light in Gu Chi's eyes became brighter, and he saw some clearer scenes. This was not the bottom of the abyss.

On those dark red cliffs, there were also some lightning interweaving. Although very weak, they never dissipated and kept moving in the cracks of the rough rocks.

Just watching from afar made Gu Chi's soul shaken.

"What a powerful thunder technique! After so many years, it still retains such terrifying power." Gu Chi felt awe in his heart.

In addition, there are many shocking bloodstains. Although they have dried up, they still exude a heart-pounding breath.

Afterwards, Gu Chi saw many traces of battle on the cliff, and even undried blood. The murderous aura was shocking. Even though he was far away and hiding in the black gold coffin, that kind of power still made Gu Chi feel pain in his body, as if his skin was about to be torn apart.

Soon, she saw some broken feathers again. She looked at them carefully and her heart was suddenly trembling.

That's most likely Feng Yu!

Those bright feathers were deeply embedded in the stone wall like arrows. There was a large patch of dark red blood around them, which had dried up and all vitality had been wiped out by the phoenix feathers.

Gu Chi was shocked. What was the origin of this abyss?

She felt that this seemed to be an ancient road from ancient times, where many peerless masters fought fiercely, killing as they walked, thus leaving such traces.

After a long time, Gu Chi heard bursts of whimpering sounds, which seemed to be about to reach the bottom of the abyss.

It was at this moment that she sensed Xuan Zhu's breath again, and also saw a crystal bracelet, blooming with soft brilliance in the darkness.

It belongs to Xuan Zhu and still bears the imprint of her Dao principles, and one can sense a faint fluctuation of divine power.

"That is..." Gu Chi's pupils suddenly shrank. The bracelet was hanging on the stone wall, glowing brightly, and on a small protruding platform nearby, there was a figure sitting on it!

Fortunately, the man had already died, with his back against the rock wall. There was a bloody hole between his eyebrows, where a silver needle had pierced deeply into his spirit platform.

Thousands of years have passed, but that person's body has not decayed into ashes. His realm of cultivation during his lifetime is absolutely immeasurable.

Gu Chi activated the black gold coffin, and it fell onto the small platform with a clang.
