195: Chapter 185 The Horror of the Abyss
Listening to the Demon Venerable's words, Gu Jixiao couldn't help but frown.
"Are you sure you don't know anything?"
Feeling Gu Jixiao's suspicious gaze, the Demon Venerable couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.
"Your Majesty, I truly don't know anything. Besides, there's no need for me to deceive you; after all, I've always wanted to eradicate the Abyss Cave."
Seeing the Demon Venerable's sincere expression, Gu Jixiao had no choice but to dismiss his inner doubts, yet he continued to inquire.
"So, how much do you know about the Abyss Cave?"
"My understanding of the Abyss Cave isn't deep. I only know that it suddenly appeared within Chaos a million years ago."
As he spoke, the Demon Venerable's expression couldn't help but turn solemn.
From the Demon Venerable's account, Gu Jixiao gained a certain understanding of the Abyss Cave.
A million years ago, the Demon Venerable and the other Lords of the Four Realms had already stepped into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm, and by then, the Sacred Realm had already hidden itself within Chaos.
The massive disturbance caused when the Abyss Cave first descended into Chaos caught the attention of the Demon Venerable and the other three Quasi-Immortal Emperors, so they rushed to the Abyss Cave together.
At first, they thought the Abyss Cave was a Secret Realm, as its appearance was far too similar to one.
But they didn't expect a continuous stream of mysterious giant beasts to surge out from the Abyss Cave, their strength being utterly terrifying.
Most importantly, they sensed that the power used by the giant beasts emerging from the Abyss Cave didn't belong to any of the Laws within Chaos.
While the Abyssal Beasts were surging out incessantly, the Myriad Demon Heavenly Venerable once tried to Seal the Abyss Cave, but he didn't expect that their incredibly terrifying Quasi-Immortal Emperor power was actually unable to Seal the Abyss Cave, and the Abyssal Beasts continued to pour out.
So, in desperation, they could only take out an immortal emperor artifact and transform it into a palace to finally Seal the Abyss Cave.
"So, you didn't step into the Abyss Cave?"
Gu Jixiao asked with some doubt.
Hearing this, the Demon Venerable slowly shook his head.
"We did go in, but not long after entering, we discovered that our power was constantly weakening, so we didn't go any deeper."
Hearing the Demon Venerable's words, Gu Jixiao's heart grew even heavier, and his wariness of the Abyss Cave deepened significantly.
One must know that the power of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor is extremely terrifying and overbearing, yet it was diminished upon entering the Abyss Cave, and the further one went in, the more horrific the reduction became.
So, just how terrifying is this Abyss Cave, and what exactly lies at its end? Could it be a true Immortal Emperor? Or perhaps an existence that stands above the Immortal Emperor?
After all, the Lord of the Abyss Cave had once tempted him, saying that if he could release him, he could help him step into the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Sensing the solemnity in Gu Jixiao's heart, the Demon Venerable hesitated for a moment but finally spoke.
"Your Majesty, in fact, once we learned of the existence of the Lord of the Abyss Cave and found out that he was currently in a sealed state, we planned to enter the Abyss Cave together to thoroughly eradicate him while he was still under the Seal."
From the Demon Venerable's mouth, Gu Jixiao also learned of their plan.
But Gu Jixiao shook his head. "It's not that simple. The Lord of the Abyss Cave once tempted me, saying that if I helped him break the Seal, he could assist me in reaching the true Immortal Emperor Realm."
"Do you think that such a powerful existence would be eradicated by Quasi-Immortal Emperors while he is merely sealed?"
