Chapter 363: The Five Directions Divine Hall contained five great heavenly treasures, each a rare and unparalleled treasure in the world.
However, at this moment, the Lord of the Abyss suddenly discovered that the hall, along with all the treasures within it, had completely vanished.
This disappearance wasn't like the kind where Zhong Qing had taken them away; it was as if he couldn't sense them at all.
It was as if they had completely vanished from this world.
Not only the Five Directions Divine Hall, but also the Illusory Saint Pagoda, and even the Magic Bamboo Formation, were all gone.
It was as if some power had forcibly severed his connection with them.
In an instant, the Lord of the Abyss, who had been incredibly calm and even praised Zhong Qing profusely earlier, completely lost his composure.
A terrifying aura surged from the depths of the Hell Abyss, seemingly intent on crushing mountains and rivers and shattering the sky.
The void shattered inch by inch.
Hellish lava churned, raising boundless waves.
Accompanying the Lord of the Abyss's furious roar, which echoed through the air, Green Ghost and Fire Drought trembled under the pressure of this aura, their hearts filled with extreme dread.
This oppressive power was like divine wrath to them.
They prostrated themselves on the ground, their posture utterly submissive.
But at the same time, the shock in their hearts reached an unprecedented peak.
Both of them knew that Zhong Qing was very unusual.
Even when Fire Drought had casually mentioned it earlier, he had thought in his heart that Zhong Qing couldn't possibly have truly embezzled their master's treasures.
However, he never expected the other party to be so unusual.
This was the Lord of the Abyss!
An supreme powerhouse between heaven and earth.
Yet, he had brazenly embezzled his treasures just like that.
From the looks of it, even the Lord of the Abyss couldn't sense the whereabouts of those supreme treasures.
How did he do it?
He couldn't figure it out!
He absolutely couldn't figure it out!
But this didn't prevent him from empathizing with his master.
Green Ghost, enduring his inner fear, spoke up, "Master, do you want your subordinate to go kill him and retrieve all the treasures?"
As soon as his voice fell, a chain of order stretched directly from the magma, lashing fiercely at Green Ghost's body.
A muffled groan sounded, accompanied by the furious voice of the Lord of the Abyss.
"This person used some unknown method to transfer my treasures."
"If he dies, what if I can't find the treasures?"
"Those supreme treasures are crucial to me; they cannot be lost."
"Don't touch him for now!"
"Let me try to communicate with the imprints on the treasures again and retrieve them before we discuss anything else."
"Now, you two, immediately, seal the Heavenly Abyss."
"You must not let him leave the Heavenly Abyss by even half a step."
As soon as the Lord of the Abyss gave the order, Green Ghost and Fire Drought dared not delay.
They immediately began to seal the Heavenly Abyss.
On the other side, on the ancient path, Zhong Qing was walking along the road, seeing if he could find new gains.
This feeling of treasure hunting was quite exhilarating, because you never knew what kind of supreme treasure you would encounter next.
He rarely had such moments of anticipation.
However, very quickly, Zhong Qing let out a surprised sound.
He saw the surrounding void begin to twist, and wisps of white mist spread from the space.
Before long, it filled the entire space, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of their face, causing one to lose their sense of direction and perception.
"Why did this thing suddenly appear?"
Zhong Qing was suspicious, and his brows furrowed deeply.
On the other side, in the void, Fire Drought and Green Ghost had quietly arrived above Zhong Qing's location at some point.
As subordinates of the Lord of the Abyss, they had the Lord of the Abyss's imprint within them and were completely unaffected by the white mist, allowing them to clearly see Zhong Qing's every move.
Upon seeing Zhong Qing, Green Ghost subconsciously touched the burning wound on his body.
He said with a grim expression, "This guy's methods are truly bizarre; he can even hide treasures that our master has imprinted."
"He shouldn't be able to escape the Heavenly Abyss, right?"
If someone told him that someone could cross the Heavenly Abyss, he would definitely scoff at them.
In the past 100,000 years, no one had ever been able to cross the Abyss when it was in a sealed state.
However, Zhong Qing's performance was too unusual, constantly refreshing his understanding, almost making Green Ghost lose his confidence.
Fire Drought shook his head upon hearing this, "The Heavenly Abyss is sealed; there's no exit once you're in."
"This mist is formed from Chaos Qi, and its origin is extraordinary."
"It can distort space and obscure the five senses."
"No matter how heaven-defying or unusual he is, how can he cross the Heavenly Abyss's seal?"
"Moreover, look, he's like a headless fly now, completely unable to distinguish directions or left from right."
"In this state, wanting to escape the Heavenly Abyss is simply absurd."
Upon hearing this, Green Ghost finally put down his worries.
Now that the Lord of the Abyss wanted to recall the treasures the other party had taken, if Zhong Qing were to escape the Abyss, they would truly be guilty of a crime that even death could not atone for.
He looked at Zhong Qing and sighed, "This child is bizarre and unusual; normally speaking, he really could pass all the checkpoints."
"However, he shouldn't have, absolutely shouldn't have, taken our master's treasures for himself."
"What do you think our master will do with him?"
Fire Drought shook his head, "How can we guess our master's thoughts?"
"What we need to do now is to watch him carefully and never let him disappear from our sight."
"Even if we are sure he can't cause any more trouble, we must never let him stir up trouble again."
This made Green Ghost agree.
Zhong Qing's ability to cause trouble was too strong.
They weren't careful for a moment, and the Five Directions Divine Hall was directly gone.
Then, a quick glance back, and good heavens, the Illusory Saint Pagoda and the Magic Bamboo Formation had all been tampered with.
Now, just looking at Zhong Qing, he felt a bit over-reactive.
Zhong Qing was unaware that his actions had left a very deep impression on certain people.
The sudden disappearance and reappearance of the white mist made him feel that there must be a mastermind behind it.
He was reflecting, "Could it be that I collected some things into my Small World, which led to the current situation?"
It must be said that his sixth sense was quite accurate.
Just at this moment, the system's voice appeared in his mind.
"Detected Chaos Qi in the surrounding void. This energy can accelerate the evolution of the Small World. It is recommended that the host absorb it."
The voice in his mind made Zhong Qing's eyes widen suddenly.
He didn't expect that the vast white mist was actually formed from Chaos Qi.
This, wasn't it a bit too astonishing?
No wonder, being in the white mist, many of his methods were rendered useless.
If this was formed from Chaos Qi, then it made sense.
Chaos Qi!
The gas from the beginning of creation.
In terms of preciousness, it was even more important than the supreme treasures of the Five Directions Divine Hall he had collected earlier.
Moreover, this thing could actually accelerate the evolution of his Small World.
The Small World was one of his important trump cards.
When encountering a powerful enemy, as long as he hid inside it, unless he met a powerful enemy capable of breaking through the world's barrier, he would be safe and sound.
Of course, its functions were numerous.
Using it to avoid powerful enemies was just one of its most insignificant uses.
If he could thoroughly evolve the Small World into a Great Thousand World, with a single thought, the will of the world would be upon him, and he would be the master of that world.
At that time, even facing a true god, he might be able to contend with them.
Of course, this was also a future fantasy, but it didn't prevent Zhong Qing from accelerating the evolution of his Small World.
