Chapter 544: Chapter 492 Abyss Training_2

He wore the white magic artifact around his body and tied the gray magic artifact to his left hand.

He then went to the outer courtyard, where a dozen or so junior and outer disciples had already gathered, all of them cleaning up the cave mansion.

“Greetings Uncle Master Xu!”

The dozen or so junior and outer disciples all bowed to Xu Mu.

Xu Mu had just entered the sect this year, his generation was higher than these junior and outer disciples, so they all called him Uncle Master.

“Good day! You all have been working hard recently!” Xu Mu said with a smile.

“No trouble at all! It is our duty to serve the sect and you, Uncle Master!”

The dozens of junior and outer disciples all replied respectfully.

Although they were only junior and outer disciples, they also had their own dignity and pride.

They knew that they were part of the sect and that their status would improve as the sect became stronger.

So, even though they were not inner disciples, they felt an incredible sense of pride and dignity whenever they were addressed as Uncle Master.

“Uncle Master! The place is already cleaned up, and you can move in now!” One of the junior disciples told Xu Mu.

“Excellent! You’ve all worked hard.”

Xu Mu said with a smile, then went into the side hall.

The inside of the side hall was very quiet, he was the only one there.

He walked over to the bed, sat down cross-legged, and then opened up his sea of qi.

Immediately, a rich spiritual energy gathered from all directions, and quickly collected into his sea of qi.

He closed his eyes and remained motionless, allowing the spiritual energy to settle and compress in his sea of qi.

As time passed bit by bit, the spiritual energy in his sea of qi became more and more pure.

A few hours later, he opened his eyes and exhaled a turbid breath.

“This Cloudtop Cave is truly extraordinary!”

He thought to himself, then rose up from the bed.

He planned to visit Qingyunzi and a few elders at Yunhua Peak.

Although he had become the head disciple of Qingyun Gate, he had not yet met Qingyunzi and the other elders.

According to customs, he first had to pay a visit to the Sect Leader, and then to each elder.

Ever since he became well-known, people had been visiting his cave mansion every day. Some were there to give him gifts or ask for favors.

There were also some who came purely to socialize, inviting him for dining and drinking.

Through this process, he built a strong bond with the talented disciples of the sect.

Facing a middle-term Divinity Transformation disciple with limitless prospects like him, everyone was naturally willing to interact and deepen their relationship with him.

In such a bustling life, more than a decade passed in a dash.

Only then did Xu Mu settle down to concentrate on his cultivation and improve his realm.

A hundred years flew by like a fleeting moment, and Xu Mu’s realm smoothly advanced to the late-stage of the Divinity Transformation. His skills and divine abilities made leaps and bounds.

The sect’s grand competition was held once again. This time, he was virtually invincible. No one dared to underestimate him. Many disciples, seeing the vast gap in strength, conceded directly.

Once again, Xu Mu gained the right to use a cave mansion on the back mountain, and was rewarded with many prizes.

But this time, before he could settle down to cultivate, he was summoned to the sect’s headquarter, so were the other top ten disciples. The spirit child, Ye Mingkong, Lin Qi Yue, they were all there.

“The reason we have gathered you here is to disclose an important matter.” Sect Leader Qingyunzi said, “The ten major sects of the Human Clan are about to gather young disciples to venture into the Abyss Secret Realm for training. There will be Void Refinement Realm elders accompanying you from each major sect. You have nothing to worry about. Do you have any objections?”

Xu Mu and the others looked at each other, and all nodded their heads.

Even though this kind of venture is dangerous, it is generally safe with experts from the sect guarding it. In addition, there will undoubtedly be enormous benefits involved, otherwise, who would take such a risky venture? There is naturally no reason to refuse.

“In that case, go and prepare. We leave in a month.”

“Yes!”

Xu Mu and other disciples from Qingyun Gate thanked them and left to make preparations.

A month later, they all boarded Qingyun Gate’s flying boat magic artifact and headed to where the ten major sects were gathering, ready for venturing into the Abyss.

“Junior brother, do you know the origin of the Abyss?” The usually cold Senior Sister Lin Qi Yue suddenly asked Xu Mu.

Xu Mu was taken aback, then shook his head: “Senior Sister, I’ve just joined the sect recently and do not know the origin of the Abyss.”

Lin Qi Yue nodded slightly, as if she had expected him to respond that way, and continued: “I once heard from Master that the Abyss was a minor plane formed by the spatial turbulence caused by the self-detonation of a True Immortal Realm powerhouse thousands of years ago.”

True Immortal Realm!

Xu Mu felt as if a sledgehammer had hit his heart. He was a bit dazed.

He had never thought that the demise of a True Immortal Realm powerhouse could give rise to a minor plane. They were about to enter this minor plane for training.

“It’s said that the True Immortal Realm powerhouse was a formidable demon. At the moment of his fall, he forcibly opened a space rift, leaving his legacy and teachings there.”

As Lin Qi Yue spoke, a hint of aspiration flashed across her face, which Xu Mu naturally caught.

“Senior Sister, you are interested in that True Immortal Realm powerhouse’s relics?” he asked.

“Yes! If we could obtain the legacy and teachings of that True Immortal Realm powerhouse, we can certainly elevate the overall strength of Qingyun Gate.” Lin Qi Yue said, a firm glint in her beautiful eyes: “This is also why the Sect Leader wants me to participate in this venture.”

“I see, so the Sect Leader and Senior Sister have been really thoughtful.” Xu Mu understood, yet he was also somewhat puzzled.
