"The Pact of the Silent Abyss, an unbreakable death pact?"

Several hours later, in a slightly thin mist, Gu Xiu cautiously walked forward, full of doubt, asking the three spirits floating around him:

"Are you sure I arranged those corpses?"

Xiaoyao Pei shook up and down: "I'm sure, I'm sure. Besides you, Master, there are only those monsters in that place. Unless those monsters come to you and commit suicide, Master, it must have been you who did it."

Du Xianjian also responded: "When we arrived, those corpses were still warm; they hadn't been dead for long."

Sui Xing was also very serious: "When you were unconscious, I examined those corpses. It seems that they were all missing something in their brains. Judging from the size and shape, it was exactly the same as the fruit you ate before. You tore them apart and ate their brains."

Hearing these words, Gu Xiu felt a chill run down his spine.

He had only recently regained consciousness. When he woke up, he was being carried by Sui Xing as they ran wildly through the mist. Apart from the bloodstains on his body, he had no idea what had happened.

His own memory ends when he entered a meditative state in the pure white space, or rather, when he saw that crack while in meditation.

He had absolutely no recollection of what happened after that.

Hearing himself walk out of the pure white space and into this strange world, killing a bunch of monsters, even eating their brains, and arranging them into the shape of eight characters...

Gu Xiuzhi felt uncomfortable all over.

In the end what happened?

Why did I lose control?

Who is controlling my body?

And what does the so-called "Silent Abyss Pact, Unbreakable Death Contract" mean?

Unfortunately, neither Shattered Star nor the others knew, and Gu Xiu didn't even have the chance to see those eight characters with his own eyes, because according to Shattered Star and the others, he suddenly fainted after staring at the three moons for a while.

And then……

"Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss..."

Just then, a series of sounds, like snakes flicking their tongues, came from behind.

Following the sound, Gu Xiu saw humanoid monsters emerging from the surrounding mist, clearly closing in on him. Gu Xiu immediately had to abandon his worries, quicken his pace, and move towards a less dense area of ​​mist.

That's why Shattered Star and the others took him with them when they ran away.

It is said that after he fainted, a mist suddenly enveloped him, and at the same time the mist appeared, some strange humanoid monsters also appeared.

At first, Shattered Star and the others immediately went into battle mode, intending to kill all the enemies until Gu Xiu woke up. However, after a brief exchange, they discovered that these monsters were extremely strange in strength, and that they were endless and their numbers were terrifying.

Left with no other choice, they could only flee with Gu Xiu to avoid the danger.

"hiss--!"

Just then, a figure rapidly approached from behind. Gu Xiu took a step, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, then flashed to the side. Without hesitation, he swung the Immortal Crossing Sword in his hand.

"laugh!"

As warm blood splattered out, a humanoid monster with scales covering its skin and a snake's head was cut in half at the waist by Gu Xiu.

Even though it had been cut in half at the waist, the monster was still alive. Its lower body was still moving closer to Gu Xiu, while its upper body fell to the ground. It used two claws with three hooks to reach Gu Xiu, its tongue flicking out as it eagerly tried to devour him.

A flash of cold light appeared in Gu Xiu's hand, and the Immortal Crossing Sword instantly shattered the monster's head, finally bringing the monster's upper body to a temporary halt.

This time, Gu Xiu was more cautious and deliberately cut open the monster's head, only to find that there was only yellow, viscous fluid flowing inside, and nothing at all.

"Master, be careful!"

A beam of azure light suddenly enveloped Gu Xiu from Xiaoyao Pei, followed by a series of clanging sounds. In just a short while, eight more monsters appeared, only to be blocked by Xiaoyao Pei's protective power.

Gu Xiu did not linger in the fight. He took another step and disappeared once more. When he reappeared, he was more than three zhang away. This made Gu Xiu's face turn pale and cold sweat pour down his forehead.

His condition is not good.

Upon waking, Gu Xiu immediately realized that his spiritual energy was completely depleted, almost damaging his very essence. This was incredible, considering that Gu Xiu's dantian and qi sea were extremely vast. Since resuming his cultivation, he had only exhausted his cultivation a handful of times. Yet this time, he had done nothing, but his cultivation was completely drained.

Not a single drop was left.

Moreover, that's not all. He suffered many injuries, with varying degrees of damage to his meridians and bones, making it difficult for him to exert his physical strength at the Divine Marrow Realm.

Worse.

The injury seemed to carry some kind of special binding force. Even though Gu Xiu had taken a lot of pills and used a lot of spirit stones, he was unable to recover quickly, as if that force was limiting his recovery speed.

Fortunately, Gu Xiu obtained the Sky-Stepping Shoes.

He cannot fully utilize this treasure at the moment, but even so, he can use its spatial power to create a short-distance, rapid spatial jump, which is how he can barely protect himself amidst the fog of the army.

This is a true spatial technique, not just a simple increase in speed. This means that Gu Xiu will not have to worry about encountering any obstacles on his way to the target location.

Such a divine skill, capable of arriving in an instant, was named Instant Step by Gu Xiu.

Of course, given Gu Xiu's current abilities and his use of the Sky-Stepping Boots, the distance he can use to instantly step away from a great distance is currently limited, at most within three zhang (approximately 10 meters). Moreover, the instant step consumes a considerable amount of energy. Using it once or twice is fine, but if it is used repeatedly in a short period of time, the consumption will increase rapidly.

But even so.

The abilities that the Skywalking Boots brought Gu Xiu were still a pleasant surprise. After all, if the Instant Step was used well, this kind of unpredictable instantaneous movement could even determine the outcome of a battle when encountering a powerful enemy.

and……

The Skywalking Shoes' abilities don't stop there. Gu Xiu could sense that there were restrictions and seals on them, indicating that they weren't yet in their complete form. Once he found a way to remove the seals, the Skywalking Shoes would bring him even more surprises.

However, the chase continued. Due to the issue of energy consumption, Gu Xiu did not rely entirely on the Instant Step, but instead relied more on his own speed to escape, further widening the distance between himself and the monster army behind him. Gu Xiu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"According to the Supreme Being Wangyue, there is a gray mist in the Three Enclosures Sea of ​​Sin, and evil demons live in the gray mist. These evil demons run rampant and no one can stop them. Now it seems that the strength of these evil demons is probably even more terrifying than I imagined, and they are almost immortal."

"For now, I'm afraid we can only find a city as soon as possible and wait for our injuries to heal."

At this point, Gu Xiu naturally had a general idea of ​​where he was.

The Three Enclosures and the Sea of ​​Sin!

Although he couldn't determine which of the Three Enclosures he was in, Gu Xiu could tell from the surrounding fog and the terrifying humanoid monster that he had indeed arrived at the Sea of ​​Sin. However, he was unlucky; he didn't appear in a city that was blocked by the gray fog, but rather in the gray fog in the wilderness of the Sea of ​​Sin.

This is not good news. Although the biggest threat to Haoyu is still those people with independent consciousness in the Three Enclosures Sea of ​​Sin, as Supreme Wangyue said, once he is deeply mired in the gray fog...

Even he would surely die.

Looking at the demonic creatures in the gray mist that were relentlessly pursuing him, Gu Xiu sensed at least three demonic creatures with supreme auras. Although they were unconscious, their strength was undeniable.

If he were at his peak, Gu Xiu would not be without the ability to fight.

But the current situation is not optimistic.

Fortunately.

These monsters seem to have a strong dependence on the gray fog. Once the surrounding gray fog becomes relatively thin, they will stop and give up. This is why Gu Xiu kept running along the areas where the gray fog was thin.

"Master, this way, we'll be able to leave the gray fog up ahead!"

After running for a while, the Immortal Crossing Sword burst out from a gray mist on the side. Upon hearing this, Gu Xiu did not hesitate and immediately plunged into the gray mist. A large number of attacks fell in an instant, but fortunately Gu Xiu was prepared. His feet stepped on the air and a flash of light appeared. He instantly moved three zhang away to avoid the attacks.

After dodging several attacks, Gu Xiu finally felt a sense of clarity.

Look back.

The gray fog was like a city wall, with countless monstrous demons standing within it, their eyes fixed on him with a frenzied yet yearning gaze, yet they remained silent, the scene so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Even Gu Xiu felt a chill run down his spine under those gazes.

However, at that moment, a warning suddenly arose in Gu Xiu's mind. He took a step and, instead of using the Instant Step, used his current strength to dodge to the side. And just as he dodged,

A blazing fireball hurtled toward where he had just stood, crashing into the gray mist and shattering a section of the demonic creatures within.

As the fireball grazed past, a soft exclamation came: "I thought he was just a useless fool who overestimated himself, but I didn't expect him to be able to dodge it. No wonder he can enter and exit the gray fog without dying."

Gu Xiu frowned and looked over.

But then they saw three people dressed in strange clothes walking towards them from a distance.

There were two men and one woman.

The leader was a young man with an air of nobility. He wore a set of armor with a purplish-gold hue, which was decorated with very unique patterns. He held a uniquely shaped rapier in his hand. Judging from his attire and the spotless armor, he should be considered a person of importance.

The man and woman next to him were also quite unique.

The man wore a set of gray-white leather armor and carried a very rare long halberd on his shoulder. The woman wore gray cloth clothes and a hooded cloak, and held a Bagua disc in her hand. The residual ripples on the disc indicated that she had thrown the fireball earlier.

Upon seeing these three people, Gu Xiu's heart stirred.

A person from a wicked sea!

"But someone like you dares to covet the Source Fruit of Evil?" The man wielding the rapier glanced at Gu Xiu with disdain.

Gu Xiu did not answer, but silently took a step back.

As an outsider, he was unaware of the local customs and rules, and Gu Xiu had never even heard of the "Obstruction Fruit" mentioned by the other party.

Answering rashly might expose your true nature.

"How dare you!" The man wielding the long spear stepped forward, his face full of anger: "The young master is speaking to you, how dare you not answer?"

Gu Xiu frowned, but still did not answer.

He was considering whether to use the Instant Step technique of the Sky-Stepping Shoes to strike first.

Although he didn't sense any fluctuations in cultivation from these three people, they had made a move after all. Judging from the aura of the fireball just now, Gu Xiu could roughly determine that the power of that fireball was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

Given his current terrible condition, if he were to exert all his strength...

These three people...

He should be killed!
