UNSTOPPABLE MARTIAL ARTS: STARTING FROM ATTRIBUTE POINTS ALLOCATION

Chapter 920: Chapter 448: The Other Shore Palace, Great Abyssal Danger_2

But in reality, it was not so, as any cultivator could sense the anomaly here, as if the span of several dozen zhang was as remote as the far side of the stars.

With even the slightest inattention, one could fall into an endless abyss.

While he was lost in thought, a sudden change occurred.

The speed at which the rune lights circulated abruptly quickened, densely interweaving to form a bridge with two colors.

“A dual-colored talisman bridge, could this be the ‘divine bridge’ mentioned in Boss’s maxims?” Qiu Hu exclaimed in surprise.

Tan Wei’s expression remained calm, and although he did not speak, he vaguely understood the true meaning within.

Other cultivators were drawn to this anomaly, their faces showing shock as they watched the sudden appearance of this phenomenon.

With the emergence of the dual-colored divine bridge, the distance between the palace and their location became fully apparent, spanning hundreds of zhang.

And between them lay the boundless abyss, with endless mists rising, from which one could feel a profound fear from afar.

Great terrors lie beneath the abyss.

Tan Wei and Qiu Hu exchanged glances, each seeing a fleeting fear in the other’s eyes.

In this secret realm, the only thing that could evoke such dread in their hearts was a creature like the ten-thousand-headed behemoth from the Bi Yue Manor.

However, under normal circumstances, such a fearsome monstrosity would be as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns within a secret realm.

“Only by constructing a seven-colored divine bridge can it be completely stabilized. Once we successfully step onto the palace on the far side, you two will assist me,” Pang Yan instructed.

“Boss, how should we deal with those cultivators?” Qiu Hu asked.

“Leave them to Han Lin and the others to watch over. Anyone who disobeys, kill without mercy.”

Qiu Hu’s previous intimidation remained effective, and their straightforward conversation only served to deter the cultivators from harboring any thoughts of dissent.

After all, among this group were not only two True Spirit Realm eighth-layer powerhouses like Qiu Hu and Tan Wei but also several of the seventh and sixth layer.

Lu Yun also refrained from making a move, considering this.

He had already completed the first cycle of the Divine Grinding Visualization Technique, advancing his consciousness further, so it was the perfect opportunity to attempt to push his Nine Tribulations Secret Divine Ability to the next level.

[Name]: Lu Yun

[Affiliation]: Green Flame Palace, Supreme Dao Arena

[Cultivation Technique]: Pure Yang Martial Arts Canon (Unity Realm Chapter, Seventh Layer), Nine Tribulations Secret (Perfection, Sixth Grade Divine Ability, upgradable)…

[Innate Talent]: King-level Upper Grade

[Realm]: Unity Realm Seventh Layer

[Divine Power Value]: 0.79 million (automatically increases by 1 daily)

[Luck Value]: 1.387 million

Upon checking the panel, an upgrade option appeared behind the Nine Tribulations Secret Divine Ability.

Moreover, the Divine Power Value needed to upgrade it to a Fifth Grade Divine Ability seemed small, far less than what was consumed to raise the Unity Realm chapter of the cultivation technique.

Previously, advancing the cultivation technique to the eighth layer drained him of fifty thousand Divine Power Value, depleting all his savings, including two mid-level King-grade spirit herbs.

[Expend five thousand Divine Power Value, Nine Tribulations Secret elevated to Fifth Grade Divine Ability.]

The pattern remained as usual, with the legacy of practice and cultivation memories transferred to the Sea of Consciousness.

Accept, familiarize, and then convert it all into his own divine ability. This process took half a month and was still incomplete.

The main reason for such a slow efficiency was that his previous realm was too low, and a Fifth Grade Divine Ability was too much of a stretch for him.

Even if he managed to use it in the end, he would not be able to unleash its full power.

Moreover, there was no more time to spare for him now.

“Boss’s talent dazzles through the ages, unmatched by anyone.” Qiu Hu, Tan Wei, and the others flatteringly said, as during this process the runes flickered, and the divine bridge linking the far side of the abyss was fully constructed, displaying the colors of the rainbow.

Pang Yan paid no attention, his gaze fixed on the resplendent seven-color divine bridge. A hint of a smile appeared on his lips as he took a step forward and strode onto the bridge with a dragon’s march and a tiger’s gait, aura naturally emanating from him.

Tan Wei and Qiu Hu took the lead with their brothers, driving those cultivators who had been coerced to follow them, closely behind.

Lu Yun walked among the crowd, observing the divine bridge with care, a nameless shock deep in his heart, and a bit of longing for the palace on the other side of the abyss.

The capabilities required to create such a construct were doubtlessly high, and that palace, which promised such transformative fortune, was sure to hold boundless opportunities.

“Roar!”

As everyone stepped onto the seven-color divine bridge and reached halfway, frightful roars came from below, followed by vigorous shaking.

Under the shocked and astonished gaze of the crowd, the fog in the abyss churned, and a fiery red sphere shot into the sky, rapidly transforming into a sea of fire.

However, the densely packed runes on the seven-color divine bridge emitted intensely bright light, blocking the onslaught of the fiery waves.

Before the people on the divine bridge could rejoice, they heard a thunderous boom, and then the bridge under their feet trembled incessantly, immediately causing three cultivators to fall off and be swallowed by an unnaturally large gaping maw.

“This seven-color divine bridge won’t hold much longer, speed up,” said Pang Yan, his expression slightly stern as he instructed everyone to move faster and he himself surged forward.

Meanwhile, the divine bridge continued to sustain attacks from terrifying monsters, with powerful tremors making it hard for those upon it to keep their footing.

What was more horrifying was that the extremely sturdy bridge, which could withstand the fearsome sea of fire, started to show cracks, and the section behind them began to collapse gradually.

As the collisions from below grew more intense, the collapse sped up.

Realizing the danger, everyone unleashed all their potential, fleeing as fast as they could toward the other end of the divine bridge, which led to the palace.

The seven-color divine bridge was only a few hundred zhang in length, which they could have crossed in an instant under normal circumstances with their abilities.

But this was a divine bridge leading to the other shore, formed by a special arrangement of runes, which required careful placement of each footstep to cross.

Otherwise, even if one were a cultivator of the tenth level of the True Spirit Realm, they would still fall into the abyss.

The seven-color divine bridge began to crumble bit by bit, and one could faintly see the pervasive fog and vast sea of fire churning within the abyss.

And most shocking of all, a colossal creature kept ramming into the wobbling divine bridge, accelerating its collapse.

Those at the forefront occasionally heard miserable screams from behind them.

Recognizing the current crisis, Lu Yun no longer held back his skills and quickly raced to the front, only second to cultivators of the fourth level of the True Spirit Realm.

After a dozen or so breaths, they finally reached the magnificent palace, and the bridge behind them completely collapsed.

Only after confirming they had reached a safe position did they dare to look back at what was causing the terrifying impact on the divine bridge.

At that moment, in the foggy abyss aglow with fire, two streaks of golden light, immense as the blazing sun, drew everyone’s attention.

“That… what is that…” Tan Wei suddenly noticed that beneath the twin sun-like golden glows was an immense shadow, occupying nearly half of the abyss.

“That must be the monstrous creature from the abyss, restrained by the methods left by the master of this palace, unable to leave the abyss,” Pang Yan said in an even tone, as if the leading figure in the frantic escape earlier wasn’t him.

“Roar!”

That enormous shadow suddenly burst out from the sea of fire, and just as it was about to escape the confines of the abyss, the surrounding red runes flickered, sending it rebounding back with a jolt.

At the same time, a brief glint allowed everyone to glimpse a portion of the enormous creature – its eyes like blazing suns, its body long like a serpent, wings on its back, and its entirety wrapped in pitch-black chains that clinked with metallic clashes as it struggled.

If not for those chains and talismanic restrictions, it was doubtful that they could have contained this behemoth, and all of them might have ended up as food in its belly.

However, due to the collapse of the divine bridge, many cultivators couldn’t escape in time and fell into its clutches.

Now, standing in front of the palace, there were only a little more than twenty cultivators left.

Even among those under Pang Yan’s command, many had perished in the ordeal.

As for those who had been coerced to come, their losses were even more severe, now adding up to only nine, including Lu Yun.

From the several hundred cultivators at the beginning to just these nine remaining now.

With such a severe death rate, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to describe it as ten deaths for every life.

Especially the monstrous creature in the abyss, even with just a fleeting glimpse, was enough to send shivers down one’s spine,
