Chapter 1174 Wutong Abyss
Chapter 1174 Wutong Abyss
Lu Chen never thought that his moral character was so noble. He even thought that he was just a petty bourgeois who would do anything to achieve his goals.
However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered a movie he had watched in his previous life.
The story tells of a college student who suddenly gained some unusual abilities, that is, super powers, one day.
But when he encountered robbers in the supermarket, he could have stopped the robbers with his super powers.
However, out of fear, he chose to turn a blind eye. As a result, the robber killed a passerby after escaping from the supermarket.
And this passerby happened to be the protagonist's relative. After learning the truth, the protagonist felt extremely regretful.
If he had stopped the robbers, perhaps his relatives would not have died tragically. Therefore, the protagonist fell into endless self-blame and grief.
Later, with the persuasion of another relative, the protagonist finally understood one thing: the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
From then on, the protagonist used his super powers to punish evil and promote good, and became a hero in people's hearts.
So, at this moment, a sense of heroism suddenly arose in Lu Chen's heart.
This prompted him to want to stop the conspiracy between the demons and the dragons, so he reminded the Dragon Soul in a serious tone.
Facing Lu Chen's firm gaze, a complex emotion flashed in Long Hun's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by helplessness.
"Lu Chen, you don't understand." He spoke slowly, his voice full of fatigue and vicissitudes, "Sometimes, choices are not made by ourselves. The fate of the dragon race is no longer in our own hands."
Lu Chen's heart was shocked. He had never thought that there would be another hidden story. He thought that all this was just the selfish desire of the dragon clan.
However, at this moment, Dragon Soul's words revealed a sense of powerlessness, as if there was a deeper story hidden behind them.
"So what?" Lu Chen responded unwillingly, "No matter how big the difficulties are, there will be corresponding solutions.
Pursuing power through war and destruction will only plunge the dragon race into deeper darkness."
Upon hearing this, Long Hun was silent for a moment, as if he was recalling past memories, or thinking about how to respond to Lu Chen's words.
Finally, he raised his head, his eyes gleaming with a long-lost light: "You are right, but reality is often more cruel than ideal, unless you promise to help our dragon clan."
Hearing this, Lu Chen didn't know where he got the confidence from. Maybe it was because of the relationship between him and Long Hun, or maybe it was because he was just being hot-headed.
Anyway, after hearing this, Lu Chen said firmly: "Okay, I promise you, but this needs to be considered carefully."
Hearing this, Long Hun looked at Lu Chen gratefully, but smiled slyly in his heart:
"Boy, I was right about you. I believe that with your identity, you can definitely help the dragon clan break free from the shackles of the demon clan."
However, he said:
"Then I would like to thank you in advance on behalf of the Dragon Clan. By the way, it is not advisable to stay here for long. Let's talk somewhere else."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen remembered that Li Yue and the others were still in the formation, so he called Long Hun to come to Li Yue and the others and gave them a brief introduction.
After Li Yue and the others learned of Senior Long Hun's identity, they all showed expressions of surprise and admiration on their faces.
On the contrary, Senior Long Hun revealed an intriguing smile after learning Yan Feiyu's identity.
After all, because of Lu Chen, Long Hun was familiar with Yan Feiyu's name.
Next, Senior Long Hun called himself Long Wu and joined the team of Lu Chen, Li Yue and others, and then continued to fly towards the Wutong Jedi.
A few hours later, Lu Chen and others finally arrived at a large canyon.
The cliffs on both sides of the canyon were as steep as a knife, as if they were split in half by a huge sharp blade.
The cliff walls are covered with traces of erosion over the years, with crisscrossing gullies of varying depths, fully demonstrating the wonders of nature.
The canyon was filled with a thick layer of fog, which was bluish-gray in color and exuded a strange aura, making it difficult to see the scene at the bottom of the valley.
Occasionally, a few low roars were heard, and the sound echoed in the canyon, adding a bit of eerie and terrifying atmosphere, which was creepy.
The air around them was filled with a pungent stench, the smell of death and decay that made people want to vomit.
Lu Chen, Li Yue, Yan Feiyu and Long Wu stood in the air above the canyon, all looking solemn.
Lu Chen frowned, carefully observing the surrounding environment, and then asked in confusion:
"Liyue, are you sure this is where your demon ancestor is sealed?"
"I'm not sure, but according to what my father said, this is what is recorded in the ancestral teachings."
Liyue replied softly.
To be honest, she was not quite sure, because before meeting Lu Chen, Demon King Li Tu did not tell her about the demon clan.
"This place is very consistent with the description in the legend. It should be the Wutong Abyss. As for whether there is the seal you mentioned, we can only go down and take a look.
Because this place is extremely strange, even my spiritual sense cannot see the specific situation inside."
After Long Wu checked it with his spiritual sense, he put forward his own opinion.
On the way here, Lu Chen told Long Wu the purpose of this trip. After all, he was not an outsider, and with Long Wu accompanying him, Lu Chen felt much more at ease.
"Brother Lu, there will definitely be many unknown dangers in the abyss. In order not to drag everyone down,
I suggest that the three of you go into the Wutong Abyss, and Brother Yan and I will wait for you here."
At this time, Yunxi said with a serious expression, as if she had made up her mind.
Lu Chen heard this and felt that Yunxi was right, so he nodded, "That's good, after all, no one can predict the danger, and it will be safer for you to stay outside.
You can open a cave nearby, so that it will be convenient for us to find you when we come out."
"Well, don't worry, we will take care of ourselves." Yunxi said with a smile.
After a brief discussion, Lu Chen, Li Yue and Long Wu turned into a stream of light and fell towards the Wutong Abyss at a very fast speed.
When they reached the bottom of the abyss, the scene before them immediately made them feel chilled.
I saw a thick dark green fog filling the air all around, and the fog emitted a pungent stench, as if it was a mixture of the breaths of countless dead creatures.
The ground was rugged and covered with huge black stones. An unknown mucus flowed on the stones, and they flickered with a strange luster under the dim light.
On the surrounding stone walls, there grow some strange-shaped plants, their branches twisted like snakes, and their leaves covered with sharp barbs.
"This place... is worse than I imagined." Li Yue looked around and said with a frown, her voice echoing in the vast space.
"Everyone, be careful. There is a restriction here. My spiritual sense can only see a few meters."
At this time, Lu Chen reminded with a serious expression.
After hearing this, Long Wu tried it and complained: "I knew that nothing good would happen if I followed you. Can't you be more quiet? You always like to do these thrilling things."………………
