Chapter 489: Chapter 364: Nine-Day Operation! First Battle of the Hidden Dragon!_1
He didn’t know how much time had passed when his figure finally burst out of the purple light into a dim expanse.
A vast world emerged from the farthest end of his sight, faint and indistinct, with red circles resembling lightning intermittently flashing into view.
There wasn’t the abyssal depth Zheng Cheng had imagined, nor the suffocating darkness. There was only endless oppression, distant and spacious oppression, with a faint smell of sulphur scattering in the air.
An eternal orange-red halo illuminated the underground sky, casting a faint red hue over this mysterious world. No matter where he looked, it seemed as if everything was tinted with the color of wine, hazy and obscured.
In the darkness, there might be even stronger flying creatures, so he didn’t dare to fly recklessly, choosing instead to head straight for the ground.
It took a full half a minute before he landed on the solid, yet somewhat damp ground.
“Is this… the Abyss?”
“Descending for so long, the first level of the Chasm must be at least a thousand meters high.”
His gaze turned intense as the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique instantly enveloped an area extending over ten miles.
“The elements of the Chasm are very active, or rather in turmoil, significantly restricting the range covered by the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique!”
He looked toward the distant beyond. There, a massive volcano erupted with toxic smoke and lava, almost painting the entire space in splendid rose hues.
“There are only a few people around, Zhixue isn’t here!”
“Forget it, let’s find Zhixue first!”
He entered Yao Zhixue’s name into the search field of the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, and soon a pale green guidance route appeared, not exceeding the technique’s maximum monitoring range.
“That direction… the volcano?”
Zheng Cheng muttered to himself, and with a thought, the wings formed by the Penicillin Parasite Body Shield reappeared.
He tapped the ground with his feet, darting toward the volcano direction with incredible speed.
This was a skill he and Little Qing had come to understand on their own, primarily controlled by Little Qing, transforming the Penicillin Parasite Body Shield into wings.
Not only did it greatly enhance his speed, but it also allowed him to glide for short periods, which was extremely useful.
…
“Hehehehehe…”
While many senior students from Imperial Capital University were entering the Chasm for their Graduation Assessment, in a secret place within the Black Dragon Abyss, several figures emerged slowly.
Among them, there were two figures that Zheng Cheng would definitely recognize if he were here.
One of the Nine Dawn, Gui Ri.
One of the Nine Dawn, Illusion Sun!
“So, the assessments of Imperial Capital University are finally starting?”
Gui Ri’s cold and sinister voice came through, “The Dragon Saliva Fruit in the Black Dragon Pool has matured, eh?”
“If it were just ordinary Dragon Saliva Fruit, leaving it to them wouldn’t matter.”
“But this time, thanks to that lord’s tip-off, a Dragon Infant Fruit has formed within the Black Dragon Abyss!”
“That is the essence of the soul of the Legendary Level Black Dragon that transformed into the Black Dragon Abyss a thousand years ago. How could we possibly give it up that easily?”
Illusion Sun also spoke coldly, “If it weren’t for that lord taking action this time, luring Liang Haoran, that undying old man, into the Chasm, with his Domain of Oblivion around, my domain might not have been effective.”
“And that kid who discovered my avatar three years ago!”
“His ability is just too weird.”
“If not for that, we wouldn’t have resorted to such a strategy!”
“Zheng Cheng, huh…” Gui Ri sneered, “I wonder how much that kid has grown in the last three years.”
“But it doesn’t matter; with Black Sun’s resurrection, it is also a joyous event for us.”
“Three years ago, wasn’t she killed by that little boy?”
“Now that she has revived and passed the final assessment, her soul has been bio-engineered and ascended to Epic level!”
“Hehehe… I really want to see how she seeks revenge on that boy!”
“Illusion Sun…”
Gui Ri said indifferently, “Time is almost up. Let’s begin.”
“Don’t worry…”
Illusion Sun spoke impassively, his hands quickly forming seals, and his figure suddenly began trembling violently.
In an instant, countless figures flashed across him.
An ordinary youth, a sunny boy, a doddering old man, a burly middle-aged man, a seductive woman, an innocent child, a gloomy middle-aged man, a despondent housewife…
Endless figures, endless faces continuously flickered over Illusion Sun, utterly impossible to discern clearly. A mere glance would make an ordinary person feel dizzy and nauseous as if to vomit.
“Life is short, enjoy the moment…”
“Myriad Illusions, all laws arise from the heart. Where the heart does not dwell, the laws cannot abide.”
“Like a dream… like an illusion!”
“Hum…!”
In an instant, the space in front of him shattered like glass, turning into countless irregular glass shards floating in the air.
The numerous figures he had just conjured turned into beams of light and surged into them.
Within those countless broken shards of glass, there were various figures.
With the movements of Illusion Sun, those figures who were excited, fearful, hesitant, or silent a moment ago suddenly became indifferent.
Some of them took out weapons and started killing the people around them.
Others hid their shapes, quietly concealing themselves.
And some smirked in secret, mingling with the others and forming alliances.
