"Jumping into the abyss..."

"They didn't hesitate at all..."

Yin Huacheng's mind went blank, his pupils shrank to pinpoints.

He had seen many people in their dying moments.

But never had he seen anyone so recklessly rush towards their own death.

Even he didn't know how deep this Qingyuan was, and it still retained a strong oppressive force. Once you fell, your Vital Energy, Inner Breath, Form and Intent, and even the Inner and Outer Heavens would be suppressed.

Even the Sect Master, whose strength reached the Outer Manifestation, probably wouldn't dare to go down unprepared.

Two in the Vital Energy Realm, certain death.

"Madmen!"

"You two are crazier than I am!"

Yin Huacheng punched the ground, a deep regret rising in his heart.

The reason he dodged that sword just now was to avoid getting injured!

If injured, he might expose himself.

But it was better than this failed attempt!

This meant he not only failed to obtain top-grade training materials but also committed the grave crime of plotting against True Disciples!

"The elders will be here soon."

Yin Huacheng forcibly suppressed the turmoil in his heart.

He quickly took off his black clothes, threw them and the iron mask into the Qingyuan, and then changed into the True Disciple's attire.

After doing all this, he was ready to send a message to the elders.

However, before he could act.

Boom—

A fiery meteor crashed just three meters from the cliff, the impact sending dust and stones flying, giving the illusion that the entire Moonview Cliff trembled thrice.

The dust settled.

A woman's fiery red palace robe fluttered, her black hair dancing, sketching the shape of the wind.

"Where is my disciple?"

Her voice was no longer intoxicated, sounding somewhat unfamiliar.

"Gulp—"

Yin Huacheng's throat was dry from the searing fire intent, unable to utter a single word of his prepared excuses.

"Disciple... Disciple just arrived."

"Shang Wu, let's talk this over."

Other elders also landed on the peak.

"Let's first find out what happened."

Yin Huaxuan gave his son a deep look.

Yin Huacheng gained some confidence and finally spoke:

"Moonview Cliff is my responsibility. Upon hearing the Screeching Arrow, I rushed over immediately."

"But when I arrived, Moonview Cliff was already deserted."

As his words fell.

Everyone's expressions turned extremely grim.

There was only one path up Moonview Cliff.

When they arrived, they didn't see Li Mo and Ying Bing, not on the cliff either, which could only mean...

Everyone's gaze turned to Qingyuan, their hearts sinking to the bottom.

"This longsword belongs to Ying Bing."

"She must have encountered an enemy she couldn't handle, hence the desperate strike."

Xue Jing's face was grim as he walked out with a longsword.

The sword was encased in frost, still exuding a chill.

"Those two kids aren't ordinary Vital Energy Realm. Together, they could at least hold out until we arrived, if not surpass Inner Breath."

"Was it someone in the Spirit Observation Realm who attacked them?"

Qian Bufan had just spoken.

No one expected that the real target of the Demon Summoning Cult's demon behind Wang Hu was the two True Disciples.

Bang—

Suddenly, Yin Huacheng spat blood, his body flying backward.

Just as he was about to crash into a tree, an invisible force dissipated the impact, and he staggered to a stop after several spins.

Yin Huaxuan supported his son, frowning:

"Shang Wu, no one wanted this to happen."

"Every year, there are casualties during trials. Managing such a vast area, it's inevitable to be short-handed. Does everyone have to blame the steward?"

A flicker of fire flashed in Shang Wu's narrowed eyes.

She didn't strike again, only coldly said:

"Don't let me find out you had anything to do with this."

Yin Huacheng felt as if facing a great enemy, his face instantly turning pale.

"Shang Wu!"

Yin Huaxuan angrily said, "I understand your feelings, but don't make baseless accusations!"

Shang Wu ignored his anger.

"Alright, now is not the time for internal conflict."

Qian Bufan asked, "Yin Hua, any news from the birds you control?"

"Moonview Cliff is near Qingyuan, so the birds can't approach."

"I will search the surroundings. If I find anyone suspicious, I will inform everyone immediately."

Yin Huaxuan nodded.

Xue Jing let out a heavy sigh: "Searching for the demon is secondary. The urgent matter is to determine the life and death of Li Mo and Ying Bing!"

"If they are still alive, how do we rescue them?"

Silence.

The elders fell into silence upon hearing this.

They knew nothing about the situation below Qingyuan.

The sect had almost no records about this place.

Many strong members of the Qingyuan Sect suspected there was a rare treasure below, which was why Qingyuan had an everlasting oppressive force.

Many had attempted to explore, but either vanished without a trace or retreated halfway.

Jumping down there, one might truly vanish without a trace...

Suddenly.

Jingle—

What rang twice?

A strange light flashed in Shang Wu's almond eyes, and she quickly raised her wrist.

It was the Heartbound Bell!

Li Mo was alive!

"Stop her!"

"Shang Wu, don't rush to jump down."

"If they're alive, we can find a way to rescue them."

Shang Wu intended to recklessly jump down to save them.

The elders hurriedly stopped her.

The scene was chaotic.

Only Yin Huacheng and Yin Huaxuan, father and son, shared a look of surprise.

Yin Huacheng was about to say something, but his father's dark gaze silenced him.

"Get back to Rare Beast Peak!"

"...Yes."

.......

"My master should know I'm still alive."

Li Mo tightly held the Heartbound Bell, thinking.

Flying through the mist for so long, one seemed to lose the concept of time and space.

What was certain was.

They had fallen very deep.

The oppressive force grew heavier, and Li Mo could hardly sense anything around him, as if everything had vanished with the howling cold wind.

Only the coolness of the small hand in his grasp gave him a sense of reality.

Li Mo vaguely glanced at the owner of the small hand.

Her narrowed eyes remained as cold and pure as ever.

Whether she was confident.

Or simply unafraid of death.

"From this height, if not the Daughter of Destiny, you'd surely be dead."

"Probably not even a trace left..."

"From this height, even if there's something to cushion the fall, you might still get knocked out or injured."

That unknown Inheritance Ground couldn't be explored without Ying Bing.

If it were easy to find, it wouldn't still exist.

So...

The Ice Block couldn't be harmed.

Thinking of this, Li Mo instinctively pulled her closer.

Soft jade in his arms.

The gentle and strong heartbeat transmitted through the soft body.

Ying Bing: "?"

She didn't move, just looked at the boy in confusion as he slowly turned his back downward.

He's planning to cushion my fall?

Even with her calm mind, she couldn't help but find the situation absurdly amusing.

From this height, if you really hit the ground, what good would cushioning do?

She had never been this close to a male before.

In her past life, no man dared come within three meters of her.

Ying Bing gently bit her lip.

If she moved, it might change the direction of their fall...

In the end, she didn't push the boy away.
