Chapter 34 The Abyss of Darkness

Many stones on the tombs of the dwarves in the resting place were lifted up, revealing the empty tombs inside.

Even dwarves cannot tolerate the rest of their ancestors being disturbed.

Gangdou's body trembled and roared, "Who did it?"

"Don't be impulsive, it doesn't look like it was done by human destruction or monsters." Arthur said, staring at an open grave.

"What's the meaning?"

"If it was dug out by a person or a monster, these stones burying the tombs should show signs of being thrown outwards, and many of the stones of these opened tombs fell back into the tomb."

"I don't understand what you want to say?" Gangdou still didn't understand. The dwarf was indeed in the gap between him and the human race in terms of logical thinking and reasoning.

"I mean the grave was destroyed from inside, and the biggest possibility is that the corpse opened the grave itself."

"Impossible!" Gangdou yelled, shaking his big head.

Not only did Gangdou not believe it, but almost all dwarves did not believe Arthur's statement, which sounded too absurd.

Arthur continued patiently and explained: "Although we don't want to believe it, the thing we worry most may still happen. Arnold is the dark magician. You have also seen the war spirit he summoned before. Manipulating the dead and dead corpses is the most basic ability of the dark magician."

"Are you saying that the corpses of the ancestors were controlled by the dark magician?" Gangdou asked in confusion.

"No, they are more like themselves awakening and turning into necro creatures." Arnold took the sentence.

"How is it possible for the ancestors to become necrotic creatures?"

"It is very likely. Because you dwarf ancestors vowed to guard the dwarf kingdom after death. The stronger the obsession, the less likely the heroic spirits will dissipate after death. If they happen to be nourished by abundant dark magic elements, these heroic spirits will easily awaken to become necromancers. If the corpses or bones in the tomb are still preserved intact, these undead will have a substantial body." Arnold explained in detail the process of the formation of necromancers to the dwarves.

"Then where are they now?" Gangdou asked.

"The Necromancers prefer places with rich dark magic elements, because these places can make them stronger. As long as we continue to move forward, we should find them."

The exploration team that set off again was changed to a team leader by Arnold, because he could sense the subtle changes in the dark magic elements. As long as he moved to a place where the dark magic elements were more intense, he would definitely find those undead spirits."

Arnold led the exploration team through the entire resting place. According to a rough statistics, nearly one-quarter of the tombs were turned on. Because the resting place buried countless dwarf ancestors, even if they were only one-quarter, it was a terrifying number.

Arnold suddenly stopped. There was a cliff under his feet, and further forward there was a bottomless dark abyss.

“Where is ahead?”

"The abyss of darkness ahead, and the boundary to the west of our underground world of the Dwarf Kingdom stopped here." Gangdou replied.

"What's inside? I can feel that the source of these floating dark magic elements in the underground world is where it comes from."

"There are nothing in it except the powerful underground monsters that occasionally jump out." Gangdou explained: "The powerful dwarf ancestors have gone down before, but the news brought back is that it is not suitable for dwarfs to survive. We only need to beware of powerful monsters that jump out of the Abyss of Darkness. But in the past thousand years, few powerful monsters that can threaten the Earth Fire Fort have come out. Occasionally, some monsters that are not threatening can't even pass the underground jungle and are hunted by our hunters."

"Then can we go down?"

Gangdou hesitated for a moment, "Yes, let's look along the edge of the cliff, and it is said that there is a place to climb down."

The exploration team dispersed and began to look for a way to reach the Dark Abyss. Arnold's hand jumped over the edge of the cliff and stretched forward. He suddenly touched a layer of dark barrier, and no matter how hard he pushed his hand forward, he could not pass through it.

“Is there a seal or barrier here?”

"I have never heard of a seal here that cannot be taken down?" Gangdou also noticed Arnold's strange movements and tried to stretch his hand forward, but found that his hand could only reach a position flush with the edge of the cliff, and could not reach even an inch further forward.

Gangdou suddenly swung the sledgehammer in his hand and hit the barrier that was completely invisible in front of him. It was equivalent to the full-strength blow of the warrior, but the hammer was still bounced back.

Gangdou felt angry in his heart, and gathered all his fighting spirit and attacked the barrier in the darkness with three combos, but it was still futile. The hammer could not penetrate the edge of the cliff at all.

"What a strange thing!" Arthur also pushed hard towards the edge of the cliff with one hand.

But a strange scene happened, but Arthur pushed nothing. He pushed the air with one hand, and because of inertia, his whole body fell down the cliff.

"You guys hurt me, ah!" Arthur threw his whole body into the abyss of darkness.

Everyone was stunned...

......

At the end of the Forget Canyon, Leon, Lingyu and other orcs stopped temporarily at the bottomless entrance of the dark hole in front of them.

Among the few people, the orc orcs of the Demon Ape Clan suddenly spoke, "Do you know why this place is named Wangchuan Canyon?"

"Don't keep it a secret. I know you have a lot of experience with the high priest. Tell me quickly!" The tiger orc who led the team this time urged.

"It is said that the Forbidden River is between Huangquan Road and the Underworld. After passing the Forbidden River, it is the world of death. The Forbidden River where we are now is said to be able to pass through the world of the Dead. The cave in front of us is the passage through the world of the Dead."

"Get out! Don't scare yourself." The tiger orc cursed and took the lead in walking into the cave.

Leon followed the tiger orcs, and a faint golden fighting spirit had already lit up on his body, and the long sword was tightly held in his hand and ready to attack at any time.

Lingyu and another winged Black Crow orc were in the middle of the team, while the Demon Ape orc and the Leopard female orc were broken at the rear.

Several people cautiously advanced deep into the cave, and the sound of slashing on the dry bones came from under their feet.

"How come there are so many corpses here?" said the tiger orc with a frown.

"I forgot to remind you that not only the guardian monsters here are carnivorous, but even the blood gourd vine we are looking for this time is also a carnivorous plant. Those beasts will even hunt from outside to feed the blood gourd vine." The demon ape orc explained at the end of the team.

"Does the ferocious beast you mentioned look a bit like your demon ape clan?"

"How did you know?"

What came out was the fierce fighting sound. The tiger orcs and Leon had already started fighting with the ferocious beasts that suddenly rushed out of the darkness.

"Remember the high priest's words, don't kill them. The temple also needs these guys to protect the blood gourd vines for a long time." The demon ape orc at the end of the team shouted gloatingly.

After being artificially restricted, Leon and the others made it more difficult, and almost every step forward was fought hard in the battle.

Fortunately, these temple disciples were all top powerhouses in the young orc generation. They fought almost day and night for three days before they saw the goal of this mission.

The stone wall at the end of the cave was covered with vines as thick as thighs. Small dark red leaves grew on the black vine branches, and a blood-red gourd the size of a fist was formed on the thickest branches of each vine.

"Go, go and pick it off." Several orcs encouraged Lingyu to pick it first.
