Chapter 442 The Crystal of Chaos and the Final Crisis
Carrying the Core of Thick Earth, Zhang Peng and his group set off towards their final destination—the Abyss of Chaos—full of hope. Along the way, the sky gradually darkened, thick clouds pressing down like lead weights, making it hard to breathe. The surrounding air seemed distorted by an invisible force, emitting a low, buzzing sound, as if foreshadowing an impending great crisis.
"Even before we get close to the Abyss of Chaos, it gives off a strong sense of oppression." Murong Yu frowned, his hand unconsciously tightening around the Chaos Breeze Sword, the blade trembling slightly as if sensing the impending danger.
Zhang Peng channeled the power of the Chaos Laws at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, forming a robust protective barrier around himself, while simultaneously diverting his power to buff his companions. His eyes revealed an unprecedented solemnity, "Everyone must be careful. The Chaos Crystal is the materialized crystallization of the Chaos Laws, and its location must conceal unimaginable dangers. Moreover, the mysterious organization will certainly not let us off easily; they may have already set up numerous traps in the Abyss of Chaos."
Liu Ruoli gently stroked the jade flute, her nimble fingers slightly bent, ready to play a sonic attack to defend against enemies. Her eyes revealed a hint of tension, but even more so, determination. "No matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, we must face them together. For the peace of the cultivation world, we cannot back down."
When they finally reached the edge of the Abyss of Chaos, the sight before them shocked them. A colossal abyss stretched out before them, its bottom unseen. Dense chaotic energy permeated the abyss, intertwining and churning, occasionally erupting with powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, as if threatening to devour everything.
"This Abyss of Chaos is so terrifying, where exactly is the Crystal of Chaos?" Murong Yu stared at the abyss, his eyes filled with doubt and worry.
Zhang Peng cautiously probed into the abyss with his mid-stage Nascent Soul spiritual sense. However, the moment his spiritual sense touched the chaotic energy, it was repelled by a powerful force, his face instantly turning pale and a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
"Zhang Peng, how are you?" Murong Yu and Liu Ruoli rushed forward to support him.
Zhang Peng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head. "The chaotic energy in this Abyss of Chaos is too powerful; spiritual sense simply cannot penetrate it."
Just then, Zhang Peng suddenly sensed a familiar fluctuation of dark spiritual energy emanating from the Abyss of Chaos. He was startled, realizing that the members of the mysterious organization had entered the Abyss of Chaos before them.
"This is bad. The mysterious organization is already inside. They definitely want to seize the Chaos Crystal first," Zhang Peng said.
The three exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with determination. They decided to enter the Abyss of Chaos immediately, determined not to let the mysterious organization's conspiracy succeed. They cautiously stepped into the Abyss of Chaos, and as soon as they entered, they were pulled by a powerful force, as if to drag them into an endless abyss.
Zhang Peng swiftly unleashed the "Cage of Laws," enveloping the three within it to resist the pull of the chaotic energy. However, the power of the chaotic energy was too immense; the cage trembled violently under its impact, its light flickering erratically.
Murong Yu unleashed the "Chaotic Breeze Sword," its sword energy crisscrossing as he attempted to dispel the surrounding chaotic energy. "This chaotic energy is too strange; our attacks seem to have little effect on it," he cried out anxiously.
Liu Ruoli played a "Sonic Chaos Shield," the sound waves merging with the power of the cage to maintain its stability. Her fingers moved rapidly across the jade flute, producing quick and powerful notes, attempting to disrupt the flow of chaotic energy. "I'll try using sound waves to interfere with this chaotic energy!"
With their combined efforts, the three of them struggled forward through the Abyss of Chaos. Suddenly, a colossal figure appeared ahead—the black-robed leader of the mysterious organization. He held a magic wand that emitted a black light, and his entire being exuded a terrifying aura of an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
"Zhang Peng, you've finally arrived. I'm taking this Chaos Crystal today!" the black-robed leader said coldly.
Zhang Peng snorted coldly: "If you want the Chaos Crystal, you'll have to get past us first!" As he spoke, he unleashed the "Chaos Myriad Phenomena Break," the power of the Chaos Laws coalescing into a gigantic Chaos Sword, which, with a world-destroying aura, slashed towards the black-robed leader.
The leader of the black-robed figures waved his wand, conjuring a black defensive barrier that blocked the sword of chaos. "You think you can stop me?" he said disdainfully.
Just as the two sides were locked in fierce combat, Zhang Peng suddenly noticed a crystal radiating multicolored light behind the leader of the black-robed men. It was the Chaos Crystal.
"Murong Yu, Liu Ruoli, the Chaos Crystal is right behind him, we must take it back!" Zhang Peng shouted.
The three immediately adjusted their attack strategy. Zhang Peng unleashed "Chaos Dominator's Sanction," a five-colored light shooting towards the black-robed leader with a world-destroying aura; Murong Yu unleashed the ultimate move of "Chaos Breeze Sword," "Breeze Chaos Annihilation," a sword aura containing boundless power following closely behind; Liu Ruoli played "Sonic Chaos Storm," the sound waves transforming into powerful energy, forming a huge vortex that enveloped the black-robed leader.
Under the combined attack of the three, the black-robed leader gradually became unable to withstand the onslaught, and cracks appeared in his defensive barrier. However, at that moment, a violent tremor suddenly came from the Abyss of Chaos, and an even more powerful force surged up from the bottom of the abyss.
"Oh no, the Abyss of Chaos is about to collapse!" Zhang Peng's expression changed drastically. It turned out that their battle had triggered a chain reaction in the Abyss of Chaos. The chaotic energy within the Abyss was starting to spiral out of control, and the entire abyss was shaking violently, on the verge of collapse at any moment.
Seeing this, the leader of the black-robed men abandoned all thought of seizing the Chaos Crystal and quickly cast spells to escape the Abyss of Chaos. Zhang Peng and the others also realized the danger, and they rushed towards the Chaos Crystal with all their might.
Just as the Abyss of Chaos was about to collapse, Zhang Peng finally obtained the Chaos Crystal. He quickly put the Chaos Crystal into his storage ring, and together with Murong Yu and Liu Ruoli, they used all their strength to escape the Abyss of Chaos.
The moment they left, the Abyss of Chaos completely collapsed, the powerful impact causing massive cracks to appear in the surrounding earth. Zhang Peng and the others collapsed to the ground, panting heavily. They knew that although they had obtained the Chaos Crystal, the real challenge had only just begun…
