Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu-Chapter 1157 - 1136 Boundless Celestial Abyss_1
In his Divine Sense, he saw an endless abyss.
"Is that the Boundless Celestial Abyss?" Chu Qin’s pupils shifted. He had once hypothesized with the ladies that the Crystal Beasts within the Inner Universe might have been formed from the descent of Cursed Immortal Beasts.
Thus, there might exist some connection point between the Netherworld’s Curse and the Nine Heavens.
At this moment, Chu Qin also discovered that everywhere else in the Nine Heavens, he could see clearly, including the secluded realms of some Immortal Kings; he saw everything with crystal clarity.
However, the depths of the Boundless Celestial Abyss actually exceeded the range of his Divine Sense!
How terrifying was that? 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
"When Endless Empress wakes up, I must go and check out the Boundless Celestial Abyss," Chu Qin murmured to himself.
Now it is unknown how long the Primordial Tree can hold on, and the outcome of his own battle with the Heavenly Dao is also uncertain.
One cannot pin all their hopes on a single option.
If the Boundless Celestial Abyss really possessed a passage into the Inner Universe, it would undoubtedly provide Chu Qin and his women with an additional path to survival.
Even if Chu Qin could not defeat the Heavenly Dao or break the locks within his women’s bodies, leaving the Nine Heavens could allow them to ascend to Immortal Kings, living an extra twenty billion years without issue.
By then, if in those twenty billion years Chu Qin couldn’t empower his women to conquer the Heavenly Dao, he would not be worthy of owning the System.
While Chu Qin was deep in thought, the previously silent Endless Empress beside him began to stir.
One could see the body of the Endless Empress rising into the air, the blinding Daoist Light enveloping her completely, emitting ten thousand feet of golden light.
Following that, a powerful force was released frantically from the body of the Endless Empress.
This force had a sense of being the single revered entity between heaven and earth, unrivaled in the cosmos.
Without a doubt, it was the Immortal Emperor’s Power.
It symbolized that the Endless Empress had thoroughly ascended to the imperial realm once again!
"She doesn’t need to undergo tribulation!" Chu Qin exclaimed softly with a hint of surprise, "Hmm, it’s probably because she was already an Immortal Emperor, and no longer needed to undergo tribulation."
At this moment, the Endless Empress, after her ascension, opened her eyes and landed on the ground.
"Many thanks to Young Master Chu for aiding my ascension!" The first thing the Endless Empress did after becoming an emperor was to express her gratitude for Chu Qin’s great kindness.
Chu Qin immediately helped her up, smiling lightly, "If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to ascend either, nor could I have killed those three Immortal Emperors. In that case, my women and I would have long since perished. I should be the one thanking you."
"If that’s the case, then neither of us needs to thank the other," the Endless Empress said with a smile.
"That’s best!" Chu Qin replied gently.
"Young Master Chu, may I ask you something?" the Endless Empress inquired.
"Hmm!" Chu Qin nodded.
"What did you mean by the words you said during your battle with Lie Mo Xian Di?" the Endless Empress asked, full of anticipation.
"...Which words..." Chu Qin was slightly taken aback.
"Never mind... forget it." the Endless Empress quickly responded.
"You mean the phrase, ’lay a finger on my women’?" Chu Qin returned with a smile.
The Endless Empress’s beautiful eyes widened slightly as she nodded.
"What if I say, I’m just used to saying it like that. Would you believe me?" Chu Qin asked.
Dai Mei’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "So that’s how it is."
Seeing the look of disappointment on the Endless Empress’s face, Chu Qin instantly understood something.
The Endless Empress most likely harbored some affection for him.
However, this fondness shouldn’t be enough to make the Endless Empress fall in love with me.
Chu Qin was quite clear about that.
At the same time, the experienced Chu Qin had long realized that the Endless Empress must be the Hidden Goddess.
Unless the System mutated!
Thinking this, Chu Qin gave a slight smile and said, "Endless, I need to go to a place, would you like to accompany me?"
"Where to?" In the Empress’s eyes, a hint of surprise appeared.
"The Boundless Celestial Abyss, do you know of it?" Chu Qin asked.
"The most mysterious place in the Nine Heavens!" The Endless Empress nodded, "Young Master Chu, what do you want to do there?"
"To find a path," Chu Qin said with a smile, "Are you familiar with the Boundless Celestial Abyss? Could you, perhaps, show me the way?"
"A path? Sure!" The Endless Empress nodded.
"Then let’s go," said Chu Qin, nodding in return.
"Won’t you tell your women?" the Endless Empress asked.
"Don’t worry, they are safe absorbing the Qi of Destiny under the Primordial Tree. As you just saw, even the power of the Lie Mo Xian Di isn’t enough to breach the Celestial Emperor Mountain, and if they are in danger, I’ll rush back at the first moment," Chu Qin replied.
"Mhm!" The Endless Empress nodded, "Then, Young Master Chu, follow me."
"Stop calling me Young Master Chu, just Chu Qin will do, like how I call you Endless," Chu Qin said with a smile.
"Alright, Chu Qin!" The Endless Empress’s face showed a smile even more candid.
With that, the two of them no longer spoke further, and entered the space tunnel together.
Under the Endless Empress’s guidance, Chu Qin quickly arrived at the Boundless Celestial Abyss.
Of course, even without the guidance of the Endless Empress, Chu Qin could easily find this place.
Being led was just a pretext.
"Below is the Boundless Celestial Abyss!" The Endless Empress said, looking down.
Chu Qin looked down and saw that the black hole below was so vast, it seemed like a real star black hole.
An area of complete darkness, even Chu Qin’s Chaos Eye couldn’t reach the bottom of the Boundless Celestial Abyss.
"The Boundless Celestial Abyss is also known as the Eye of the Nine Heavens!" The Endless Empress explained, "There are rumors that this place is connected to Jiuyou Diming, and originally, the Youming Xian Di entered the Jiuyou Diming through the Boundless Celestial Abyss, later, the Blood Demon Fiend also returned to the Nine Heavens from here..."
"Is that so?" Chu Qin was somewhat surprised. He already knew that Jiuyou Diming was located beneath the Infinite Heavens, underneath the Inner Universe.
If the Blood Demon Fiend came from the Boundless Celestial Abyss, it might indicate that the Nine Heavens and the Inner Universe were indeed connected.
"However, Chu Qin, these are just rumors," the Endless Empress replied, "Other rumors say that once an Immortal Emperor, in order to escape a curse of the Nine Heavens, entered the Boundless Celestial Abyss and never came out again."
"Never came out again?" Chu Qin remained calm, "Did he go to another world?"
"It could be that he entered another world, or perhaps he met with an accident," the Endless Empress said, shaking her head.
"I should have brought the Insect King with them to ask," Chu Qin shook his head lightly.
"Chu Qin, did you come to the Boundless Celestial Abyss to find a path, a way to leave the Nine Heavens?" the Endless Empress asked.
"Yes!" Chu Qin nodded, "As you know, although I have now ascended to an Immortal Emperor, the gap with the Nine Heavens Heavenly Dao is still unknown. If one day the Primordial Tree can no longer hold out, the Nine Heavens Heavenly Dao will definitely aim their spearhead at us first. I don’t mind, but my women must not be endangered."
"Mhm!" The Endless Empress nodded, "If the Primordial Tree falls, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for all the Nine Heavens. The Nine Heavens Heavenly Dao wants to borrow the power of the entire Nine Heavens to complete a path of destruction and transcendence, their heart deserves condemnation!"
"Chu Qin, then, are you planning to go down and take a look?" the Endless Empress continued.
