Land of the Abyss (2)

On the top of the Spirit Mountain, there was a mystical cave which was very difficult to reach for ordinary disciples. That cave was the passageway to the Land of the Abyss.

At that moment, Edward was at the entrance leading to the cave.

"I, Edward of the Qin Sect dare to challenge the Land of the Abyss!" shouted Edward in front of the entrance.

His voice penetrated into the walls of the cave and didn't stop echoing for what seemed like an eternity. After a short time a voice replied, however this voice did not echo and seemed to arrive from inside the cave instantly.

"Come in."

"Ok." replied Edward and immediately started walking inside the cave.

The passage was dark and there would be no light to be found this deep within the cave, but it was still possible to barely make out the surroundings. On both sides of the cave there were paintings and symbols drawn on the walls. He continued walking forwards and could already see part of the cave in which there was a small light. He immediately headed towards the light.

Inside this part of the cave there was a bed made of stones, a single table and chair with a candle atop. It was a very rustic room. On the bed sat an old man wearing a black cloak. His eyes were closed and he wasn't moving at all, there were not even signs of breathing. After a long time the old man spoke.

"You want to go to the Land of the Abyss?" Said the old man wearing the black cloak with his eyes still closed.

"Yes, I do." replied Edward.
