Chapter 93: Dark Abyss

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen Feng followed the animals cautiously. He concealed his aura and tried not to attract their attention along the way.

Finally, he followed the animals into a small and quiet canyon.

The abyss was already dark enough, but this place was even darker!

It was so dark that he could not even see his own fingers.

From the moment he entered, Chen Feng could not decipher anything from his line of sight.

The only thing that he could rely on was his mental power.

His mental power acted as his eyes right now. His mental power helped him perceive his surroundings even better than his eyes did.

With his powerful mental power, Chen Feng could clearly sense everything happening within a three hundred meter radius.

Chen Feng could even sense how the insect in front of him flapped its wings several times in a second.

This was the purpose of one’s mental power.

Even though it could not be used to see or hear things, but…everything within the range of his mental power could be absorbed into his brain. It was a special type of sensory ability.

Chen Feng retracted his aura and relied on the perception range of his spiritual power to dodge the charging soul beasts before they collided against him so that he would not get hit.

All the soul beasts stopped simultaneously after walking a few thousand meters.

It was as if there was a forbidden area that these soul beasts did not dare to cross ahead of them.

Chen Feng slowly raised his head. The front of his vision was filled with darkness.

However, there was a huge altar that was ten meters tall and a hundred meters wide in the world that he could sense with his mental power!

The altar silently gave off an azure glow. It looked especially beautiful and exquisite in the darkness.

What surprised Chen Feng more was the fact that he could not see anything with his naked eye, be it the altar itself or the light emitted from the altar.

These things seemed to only exist in the mental realm.

“How magical.” Chen Feng could not help but sigh out loud.

He slowly moved forward until he reached the area where the soul beasts in front did not dare to cross.

As expected, they were only a hundred meters away from the altar.

“Why don’t they dare to approach it? Are they afraid?”

Chen Feng shifted his gaze to the tall soul beasts beside him and discovered that their gazes were full of reverence instead of fear.

These soul beasts were no longer as violent as they were before arriving at the altar.

Even the injured tiger looked as tame and gentle as a little kitten. The wild horses that it had attacked previously were standing ten meters away from it. However, they were able to get along peacefully here.

None of the soul beasts showed any signs of hostility or viciousness. They all lay on the ground obediently.

“What exactly is this altar?”

Chen Feng used his mental power to probe forward. His heart was filled with shock and doubt.

Moreover, he noticed something extremely important. All the soul beasts had fled in this direction earlier. They were obviously trying to avoid something when the horn sounded.

After entering the canyon and the altar, the animals settled down once again.

It seemed like…the altar was guarding them. This looked like a safe space.

Chen Feng mustered his courage and slowly walked forward.

He wanted to cross the border ahead.

All the animals stopped about a hundred meters away from the altar. There was evidently an invisible boundary there.

Chen Feng had to cross over since he wanted to know the truth about the altar.

He slowly walked forward and carefully observed his surroundings.

The surrounding soul beasts obediently lay on the ground. They had no interest in Chen Feng although he stopped restraining his aura.

One step… two steps…

Chen Feng felt like he had come into contact with a thin membrane when he walked ten more meters forward.

This was a layer of pure energy!

Whoosh!

It was as if someone had plucked the strings of a zither. Chen Feng could hear the gentle sound of rain in his ears. Soon after, he felt like he had entered an alien space.

An azure blue light slowly appeared before Chen Feng.

A magnificent altar stood before Chen Feng.

However, unlike before, he did not see it with his mental power this time around. It was visible under the naked eye!

This was the first time Chen Feng had used his eyes to look at the grand altar before him.

It was about 15 meters tall and 120 meters wide. It was divided into three levels.

There was an extremely complicated graphic that made one dizzy just by looking at it on the side of the altar.

After Chen Feng analyzed it, he realized that it was a mural made of special material. The mural had been carved onto the altar.

“There is a tree…in the picture!”

At first glance, Chen Feng saw a towering ancient tree in the middle of the mural. It stood tall, and its branches and lush leaves grew in all directions.

It was glowed so bright that it was as if it had become one with the sun.

Although it was a tree, it shone as bright as the sun.

“Hibiscus!”

Chen Feng exclaimed.

Needless to say, this tree was definitely the legendary Godly Tree!

Chen Feng then thought about the [Hibiscus Seed] in his backpack. Could the [Hibiscus Seed]…be used to grow the Hibiscus Tree?”

Back when he killed the projection of the Yatengu, Chen Feng had received a special side quest called [Planting the Godly Tree]. The system had given the [Hibiscus Seed] to him as a quest item.

Besides, the Yatengu had told him that he would have to plant the Godly Tree first if he wanted to survive before vanishing into thin air.

The Godly Tree…Hibiscus…The mural…

They were all linked to each other.

Most importantly, the mural showed that the roots of the lush Hibiscus Tree were planted within a huge altar.

The altar was right in front of Chen Feng.

Is this it?

Chen Feng mumbled. He could not suppress the shock in his heart.

He did not expect to get pushed down from the cliff, but he had ended up finding an altar where the Godly Tree could be grown in this abyss by chance.

Heaven never bars one’s way!

However, Chen Feng did not panic. He continued walking around the altar instead. He wanted to see what else was depicted on the murals.

In these murals, the Godly Tree seemed to be the faith of all living creatures in the world.

Humans worshiped the Godly Tree, and so did animals.

All living beings were equal under the Godly Tree. There was no killing, discrimination, or bloodshed.

Everything was peaceful here.

“Are these soul beasts still maintaining these traditions although the Hibiscus Tree is no longer around?”

Chen Feng looked back in surprise.

These obedient and docile animals resembled the graphics in the murals.

It seemed that the soul beasts still maintained their previous habits and sincere devotion before the altar even after the Hibiscus Tree was no longer around.

Chen Feng circled to the back of the altar and discovered that the mural depicted another scene accurately.

[Suppress the Demon]

There were countless…demons beneath his altar!
