3 Bone abyss

There was nothing other than the pitch darkness within the abyss, anyone else who was in Lin Hai's place would be gripped by an instinctive fear.

He kept falling through the abyss for a very long time, who knows when he would reach the bottom.

***************

After a while, Lin Hai finally reached the bottom of the abyss, his feet stepped on something, he "cracked." He looked down to see that he was standing on some bones, then turned his gaze forward.

The frightening scene surprised him, there were tons of different bones, then he turned right to left, and there were the same thing, millions of small and large bones that filled the place, some of them were big like mountains, of course not as big as the mountains outside, but they were very large in proportion to a person the size of Lin Hi.

He was afraid, extremely, because no one would remain calm while he was among the millions of bones, at least Lin Hai wasn't the type to remain calm, this gave off a sense of dread as if anyone who fell into the abyss would join this group of bones.

He took a deep breath and then moved forward. On his way, he found various skeletons, some belonging to cultivators and others to spirit animals, and there were also skeletons belonging to divine beasts and ancient beasts that are close to extinction in our time.

"H… Is this an Immortal Phoenix from the legends??!!! Notice a skeleton that looked like a gigantic bird, even though countless years had passed and its corpse was desiccated until its divinity still flashed on the broken fragments, there it was. Also, a skeleton belonging to an ancient dragon whose length alone was hundreds of millions of miles away seemed like a ruler of realms, but it was just a corpse here in this abyss.

"This is extremely strange, how did millions of powerful beings die in this place, especially these legendary creatures??," Lin Hai asked.

All in all, no one can answer this question, or at least most living things can't.

It took a short time before he reached the end of the road, he found in front of him a gigantic fortress that extended an unlimited distance, it was not a real fortress made of rocks or various minerals or something like that, but rather a fortress made of bones only, it looked like the end of the world, no one could overcome it .

Lin Hai searched for gaps or a hidden entrance amidst this fortress of bones, but there was nothing to help him enter.

This great fort was simply a perfect fortress without any gap or error in its formation that could repel millions of invaders from penetrating it.

Lin Hai lay on the ground and continued to look towards the horizon as he thought of an effective way to break through this stronghold, after thinking for a bit, no other idea occurred to him other than to use brute force.

Lin Hai got up, then took out his personal sword and stood in front of the fortress, then summoned his full energy at the peak of his sword called the "World Destroyer Tifa Sword", after gathering all of his energy, he took a deep breath and shouted, "Cutting the sky!"

"clank" stabbed his sword forward with a speed beyond the speed of lightning, time

seemed to have stopped

Even the most agile cultivator would be one step slower than this stabbing sword, allowing it to pierce through heaven and earth, nothing could stop its momentum or sharpness.

He aimed straight towards the middle of the bone fortress, wanting to destroy it and made an entrance. With one decisive blow, the sword pierced through the wall, Lin Hai was blown back by the force recoil.

He got up and his body contained some superficial wounds from the explosion caused by the sword energy.

Lin Hai assumed that the stronghold had been destroyed by the sword's sheer force or at least made an entrance for itself, because it was a stronghold made of bones only, not something as remote as metal.

Unfortunately nothing of what I assumed happened, the fort was still standing, there were some minor scratches on it but no actual damage.

Lin Hai's plan was thwarted, who would've thought that despite using the strongest sword in his arsenal on top of the strongest art of his sect, he wouldn't be able to deal decent damage to this bone fortress.

Lin Hai sat on the ground pondering with a complicated expression.

At the same time, in the deepest place within the Abyss of Bones.

"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. Who does this little boy think he wants to destroy the wall that I personally made? Even his brat ancestor who calls himself the Emperor of Swords couldn't break through, let alone engulf him. It's funny that he looks like an ant trying to pierce the sky, isn't it, Little San?" said the same voice. The unknown from the first time.

"Yes, you are right, sir," said another voice near him.

"Anyway, I need this kid even if he's an ant. I don't have much time left to wait for someone better than him. I have to make one in this generation before that damn guy finds me. I doubt I can hide from him for another couple of generations so I'll have to bet on this one." Child, Little San, go and receive this child well, you know what you're going to do. Make sure he dies at least ten times before you bring him to me," the unknown voice said with an evil smile on his face.

"Don't worry, sir, I will give him the best reception," said the voice beside the unknown presence, then went towards an unknown direction.

"I hope you will be enough, kid, hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe." The nameless existence laughed, then a deathly silence followed.

***************

Meanwhile, Lin Hai was still sitting on the ground and looking at the fortress without any idea how to break through this wall.

But suddenly, out of sight, an entrance opened in the bone fortress right in front of Lin Hai. He stepped back and drew his sword, ready to face potential enemies. He narrowed his eyes to look at the newly opened entrance, but there was nothing.

"What are you looking at, you foolish brat, enter?" A voice on the other side of the fortress said.

"Who… who are you?? What is this place exactly, and are you the person who told me that the people I am looking for are below, where are the disciples of my sect?" Lin Hai tightened his sword grip and asked multiple questions at the same time.

"You stupid brat, I don't have time to waste on you or answer your stupid questions, come in or die." The voice on the other side said and then muttered, "But you will die either way." Lin Hai did not hear the last sentence.
