Chapter 2482: A Leak

Lu Yin gave instructions to the Second Nightking and others to make sure that he was not disturbed, and he also delegated a few tasks to Lu Buzheng and the rest before announcing that he was going into seclusion.

This had been his plan for quite some time, but Attendant Wu’s appearance had forced Lu Yin out of seclusion after just a short while. Fortunately, some good had come of that. He had forced Nutjob Lu out of the Perennial World, which had temporarily removed a thorn from his side, and he had also learned the Wang family's secret.

Thus, after a short delay, Lu Yin returned to seclusion.

He raised a hand, and his die appeared. He tapped it and then watched as it spun, hoping for six pips: Possession. He had more than enough resources and time to spare on this endeavor.

Two years later… There was a place in the Perennial World’s Middle Realm that was perpetually shrouded in darkness. This darkness was different from the gloomy and desolate atmosphere of the Yinshan District, and it brought about a feeling of despair.action

Everything was filled with darkness, including the sky, the earth, the rivers, and even the air that one breathed. This place was Specter Abyss.

Many people in the Perennial World knew of this place, but few dared to venture within it. Even those who wished to join Specter Abyss found it difficult to leave after entering, and some who entered were never seen again, not even their corpses.

Dense death energy enveloped every part of Specter Abyss, and the deeper one went, the thicker the death energy became. The region that was covered with death energy was hundreds of times larger than Gaia's Swamp.

In this land filled with the silence of the dead, a group of people slowly pushed forward. There were both men and women with expressions of fear as they surveyed their surroundings with absolute focus and tread forward with extreme caution.

"Brother Wan, do we really have to enter Specter Abyss? Isn't this too dangerous?" someone asked, shattering the silence.

Brother Wan was the person leading the group. He was a muscular young man with dry skin. It was clear that he was used to the sun and wind. Under a sparse beard, his face was covered with a concealed mishmash of scars. He nervously stared up ahead, clearly quite reluctant. "The person who killed Brother Qian must be around here. We have to find him."

The others glanced at each other.

"That man isn’t from Specter Abyss. If he entered this place, then he's probably already dead. Shouldn't we just wait outside?" one person suggested.

"Specter Abyss is vast. If we leave and that person manages to survive, he'll easily escape," Brother Wan answered determinedly.

A woman whispered, "But it’s not worth it if we all die here."

The man beside her quickly covered her mouth. "Keep your voice down! Brother Wan is Adventure King's disciple. If you offend him, you can forget about remaining in Root!"
