553 The Chaos Abyss (Part 2)
The edge of the abyss could not be seen, but a terrifying, dark, and brutal aura rippled out endlessly.
Just a corner of the abyss was enough to send shivers down one’s spine.
Chu Xuan adjusted the Chaos Dao Mirror and looked around the chaos abyss. Gradually, a larger image projection appeared.
The abyss was like a roaring giant mouth, seemingly wanting to devour everything, but also seemed to be full of unwillingness and anger. He also saw a pair of scarlet eyes, which seemed to stare out into the chaos beyond.
The chaos abyss was like a prison of evil.
For the time being, he was unable to tell if this was naturally formed or if it was created by an expert.
Then, he caught sight of a living being.
It looked like it was formed by resentment, and had lost its ability to think.
It was not particularly strong, having only reached the Heaven realm.
As he looked further in, there were Divine realm existences, and then Dao realm, and finally Daoyuan realm existences.
Chu Xuan’s brows furrowed.
Why were there so many living beings in the chaos abyss?
These were all living beings that had once fallen, and were now living in a land of despair.
When Chu Xuan looked at the Daoyuan realm beings, he noticed that even their eyes were filled with despair, causing their personalities to become twisted and brutal. That being said, it seemed that they had managed to at least retain their intelligence and sentience.
Gradually, Chu Xuan came across those who had 10,000-mile-long Dao paths.
Suddenly, a terrifying figure appeared in the scene projected by the mirror.
It was an abyssal being that was 10,000 meters tall, and it had a 200,000-mile-long Dao path.
The other party roared, wrapped in terrifying power, as it rushed to try and leave the abyss.
However, a terrifying suction force coming from the bottom of the abyss pulled it back in, despite its struggles.
It even self-destructed its Dao path, but could not escape. When it reached the bottom of the abyss, it was restored to its original state.
Chu Xuan could see that the eyes of this being were filled with despair.
Moments later, it tried again, and failed again.
It seemed that these abyssal beings were subjected to constant pain and torture, which was why their personalities and consciousnesses had become like this.
The abyss was a prison!
Therefore, the ones in the prison were naturally criminals!
‘What kind of place did this huge chaos abyss belong to?’ Chu Xuan thought to himself as he continued down the abyss.
The abyss seemed to have no end.
During this period, Chu Xuan even found an abyssal being that was comparable to a World Creator realm expert.
The other party silently remained in a corner of the abyss, enduring the torture and pain. His expression was calm and not too violent.
There were many powerful beings in the abyss. Those who could not bear the pain would try to escape, and fail every time. Even if they self-destructed their bodies and Dao paths, they were resurrected once they were pulled back in by the suction force.
Suddenly, a powerful fluctuation and a terrifying roar appeared on the image projection.
A huge passage appeared there, like a path of life in the abyss.
The other end of the ancient path was there.
Countless abyssal beings roared as they tried to enter the ancient path.
Among them, there were quite a few Daoyuan realm experts.
However, because of the restrictions, they were unable to enter the ancient path and were blocked by the laws of the chaos.
Angered, they killed the other abyssal beings that gathered there.
One batch of abyssal beings after another was slaughtered. However, they were soon resurrected. One could not die here even if they wanted to!
Chu Xuan silently watched for a long time, at the same time observing the power of the chaos abyss’ laws. If he entered with his current strength, would he be able to escape?
He was not fully certain.
As he traveled further in, he found three World Creator realm experts.
The strongest one Chu Xuan found had a Dao path that was roughly two million miles long.
As he went deeper and deeper into the chaos abyss, Chu Xuan gradually saw a ball of darkness at the bottom of the abyss.
It was like a ball of dark cotton. The power of laws brewed within it. It seemed that he had reached the bottom.
Chu Xuan zoomed out, and the bottom of the chaos abyss was gradually revealed. It was like a huge swamp, and this swamp contained the laws of the chaos abyss.
The laws were chaotic. They were deposited in the chaos abyss, like a swamp where garbage was dumped.
What was being dumped was not garbage in the ordinary sense.
Instead, these were laws that had been abandoned or replaced!
At the bottom of the abyss, there was no sign of anyone being suppressed.
Of course, it was possible that someone was suppressed beneath the swamp-like laws. However, exploring the swamp would possibly alert laws or perhaps the person who had created this place, if it was not naturally-formed.
Chu Xuan thought for a moment and did not continue. Instead, he began to search the bottom of the abyss.
There were some treasures in the abyss, such as the treasures left behind by some experts.
There were also special items that were born in the abyss after a long time.
These treasures contained the power of the abyss. To Daoyuan realm experts, these were all rare treasures.
Suddenly, a blood-red light flashed briefly across the mirror, and then disappeared.
