605: Chapter 605 The Pass!

The day the Void Abyss Battlefield opened.

The top ten of the Heavenly Pride Competition had all arrived.

It was still the Alliance Square.

At this moment, the square was packed with people; many had come specifically to watch these geniuses enter the Void Abyss Battlefield.

Fang Bai and the others stood in the center of the square.

Qin Ming had also arrived. After not seeing him for half a month, he had matured significantly and become much more cold and aloof than before.

During this time, he had been training bitterly, doing everything possible to increase his strength, even if it meant torturing himself.

Current him was much stronger than he had been during the Heavenly Pride Competition.

Qin Ming looked at Fang Bai, a hint of battle intent in his eyes.

He could not wait to fight Fang Bai once more.

As if sensing Qin Ming's gaze, Fang Bai, who was talking with Tang Chao, looked over.

Fang Bai glanced at Qin Ming and then withdrew his gaze.

He had no interest.

Qin Ming could no longer keep up with his pace.

While the other was training bitterly at home, he had been truly fighting and killing out in the world!

Their levels were fundamentally different.

"Is the entrance to the Void Abyss Battlefield right here in the Alliance Square?"

Tang Chao spoke up, "Of course not. However, for the past few sessions, we've set off from here. We still have to travel a bit further to reach the entrance of the Void Abyss Battlefield."

Hearing this, Fang Bai nodded.

At that moment, a streak of sword light sliced through the sky and came to a halt above the Alliance.

Everyone fell silent and looked up.

The Sword Saint appeared. His gaze fell upon the field, lingering on the ten individuals for a moment before he said, "Since everyone is here, let us depart. You ten represent the top youth of our Alliance; do not disappoint us."

Everyone's expression turned serious.

The Sword Saint opened his palm, sword intent condensed, and a longsword appeared in his hand. He raised his hand and slashed!

Riiip!

The sword qi directly carved out a spatial abyss!

Following that, the Sword Saint flicked his finger, and a giant sword appeared before Fang Bai and the others.

"Get on."

Fang Bai and the others didn't waste any words and leaped onto the longsword one after another.

The Sword Saint led everyone as they shuttled into the Spatial Rift.

Inside the Spatial Rift, the surrounding space was filled with wind and thunder, but a layer of sword intent protected everyone.

The flying sword was incredibly fast, continuously shuttling through time and space.

"This is the teleportation passage leading to the entrance of the Void Abyss Battlefield. At that time, you can enter the Void Abyss Battlefield through the entrance," the Sword Saint said.

Entering this place for the first time, Fang Bai asked curiously, "Senior, can truly no one enter the core region of the Void Abyss Battlefield?"

The Sword Saint said indifferently, "Not in the last few sessions. However, it's not that no one can do it. In the Alliance's history, there have been such monsters. Of course, this session, you all have matured quite a bit; perhaps you'll have a chance."

Fang Bai asked, "Then what is the core region of the Void Abyss Battlefield like?"

The Sword Saint said with a smile, "Little fellow, if you want to know so badly, you can find the answer yourself."

Fang Bai nodded slightly.

"A few years ago, I couldn't even make it halfway through the gateway. This time, I must see what the true Void Abyss Battlefield looks like!" a man spoke up calmly.

His name was Xiang Zhong, ranked eighth on the heavenly pride list.

"Passing the gateway is very difficult. You should know that three years ago, wasn't Qin Ming much stronger than you are now?" Tang Chao glanced at him and spoke discouragingly.

Xiang Zhong snorted coldly, "That's different."

"In short, if possible, we should join forces. Don't fight individually anymore; that will only Weakening our strength, and in the end, we'll only be forced to stop," Qian Ye spoke slowly.

"Haha, I think Lady Qian Ye makes sense. By joining forces, we can all share the rewards. After all, we're all here for opportunities."

No one said anything more. Many of them had been inside once before, but unfortunately, they were arrogant back then, each wanting to obtain great opportunities and thus going their separate ways. The result was that they ended up being crushed by the Gatekeepers at the gateway.

The Sword Saint glanced at everyone, then his gaze landed on Fang Bai.

The latter was also looking at him, and the Sword Saint gave him a slight nod.

Fang Bai was quite interested in that gateway. The Gatekeepers... once past them, one could enter the core region of the Void Abyss Battlefield. He wondered what opportunities and miracles lay within.

"Brother Fang."

A voice sounded from behind him.

Fang Bai snapped out of it and looked at the speaker; it was indeed Tang Chao.

"Brother Tang, what is it?"

Tang Chao said seriously, "Brother Fang, to be honest, this gateway is indeed very troublesome. I know your strength is incredible and you could clear it alone without any problem, but..."

He paused, a look of embarrassment appearing on his face. "But, could we join forces?"

He also wanted to go in and see, to try his luck.

Hearing Tang Chao's words, the others also looked over.

Fang Bai didn't mind and smiled. "Sure."

Tang Chao grinned. "That's great!"

"I'm in too!"

Qian Ye immediately chimed in.

Fang Bai was the strongest among them all; if he carried them, they would surely pass easily!

Lei Ling thought for a moment and said, "Me too."

Lei Ling's joining surprised even Jin Jing.

Because this guy had always been a loner; last time they entered, Lei Ling was the first to split off, wanting to venture alone. Now he was actually willing to take a side?

Was he scared after being beaten down?

The others also expressed their agreement.

Jin Jing looked at Qin Ming. "Brother Qin, what do you think?"

Qin Ming glanced at everyone. He was confident his strength could get him through the gateway, so there was really no need to join forces. However... it would make him seem like an outcast.

He looked at Fang Bai and then nodded. "Fine."

Join forces!

Everyone had agreed; only by joining forces would they have a chance to enter the Void Abyss Battlefield together!

The Sword Saint said with a smile, "Good. Choosing to set aside your pride and join forces is a wise choice."

"However, there is one thing I must remind you: this is no child's play. It's good that you seek opportunities, but survival is most important. Only by staying alive do you have a chance."

Everyone bowed. "Thank you for your guidance, Senior."

The Sword Saint nodded.

Soon, while shuttling at extreme speed, everyone felt a flash of white light.

Blinding white light instantly swept over them, and the whistling spatial wind and thunder in their ears came to an abrupt halt. A solid sensation came from beneath their feet. Fang Bai subconsciously circulated the Source Power within his body, on guard against his surroundings.

Once everyone's vision cleared, they found themselves in a vast, boundless, and gloomy world.

Beneath their feet was dark brown earth covered in cracks, where not a single blade of grass grew, permeated by a heavy and oppressive ancient aura. Looking up, the sky was a murky dark gray, with clouds as heavy as lead slabs pressing down, as if they might collapse at any moment.

In the distance, a massive black gateway spanning heaven and earth stood majestically. The gateway was thousands of feet high, its walls constructed from unknown pitch-black boulders. The stone walls were covered with dense, obscure ancient runes that flowed with a faint, eerie light, exuding endless vicissitudes and majesty, as if it had stood for billions of years, silently telling of the desolation of time.

The entrance!
