Chapter 310: Chapter 309: Dragon Dive Abyss and Gloomy Sun Grass!
Translator: 549690339
Dragon Dive State, located in the central region of the Southern Wilderness, is vast and splendid, with many powerful clans. It is among the top ten states in the Southern Wilderness.
The name of Dragon Dive State originates from an ancient dragon from a long time ago.
Legend has it that a hugely powerful ancient dragon battled a strong foe, their fight so intense it nearly obliterated Dragon Dive State.
Ultimately, both combatants perished, their lives extinguished in the battle.
Their final resting place was named Dragon Dive Abyss, a bottomless pit where icy winds constantly blow, their intensity so great, that it upset the divine souls and damaged the intellect of whoever experienced it.
Through countless years, this place has become a forbidden ground. Despite generations of outstanding people trying to find the ancient dragon’s treasures, nobody returning from the abyss has ever gained anything but death—only furthering the abyss’s fearful reputation.
However, because of the immense and ever-spreading energy of Asura emanating from the abyss, eminent figures from later generations combined their efforts to seal it, its range confined within the abyss. Therefore, as long as one did not venture into the abyss, there was no danger.
The reputation of Dragon Dive Abyss is so well-known that even the most powerful royal families hesitate to settle nearby, leaving the surrounding area as barren as a desert, with no plants and scarce wildlife.
But recently, the long-standing tranquillity of Dragon Dive Abyss was shattered.
Countless talented young men and women, maidens and noblemen have flocked to this place…
Mo City.
The teahouse with the most up-to-date information.
“Have you heard? Gloomy Sun Grass has appeared in Dragon Dive Abyss!”
“I’ve known it for a while. It’s the treasure that can enhance the limits of one’s abilities…”
“Growing inside the Dragon Dive Abyss, who dares to go?”
“Ha, your information is out of date. I heard that the Gloomy Sun Grass is not deep inside the Dragon Dive Abyss, but just near the surface…”
“Oh? That means we have the chance to go?”
“Not just a chance, I heard that some people from the Dongguo family have already gone. They’re guarding the Gloomy Sun Grass, waiting for it to mature!”
“Eh, what are we waiting for then? Let’s see if we can jump in on the action…”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
In an instant, more than half of the young people in the teahouse left, swarming out in a crowd.
Oddly, a young man sitting on the second floor, despite a curious look on his face, merely gazed at the others retreating backs without making a move.
Besides the animated look in his eyes, the rest of his face was completely stiff, as if he was wearing a mask.
This man was Du Gang. Three months have passed since he was last pursued and hunted by the men of the devil’s domain.
In these three months, he was constantly chased by five men from the devil’s domain, hiding and running all the way to Dragon Dive State.
During this time, he had made a false promise…
When he was using the teleportation symbol, he declared that the next time they met he would behead his pursuer. He hadn’t fulfilled this promise.
The people chasing him were too strong. The weakest person who had the ability to track him had a fighting power of nearly 20,000, while the others were even more formidable. The power gap was too large, and he had no desire to stay and fight.
Every time he thought he had shaken off his enemies, they’d quickly catch up.
Helplessly, he had to leave each place quickly after a brief stay, if not, he would be caught.
Just as Du Gang was about to stand up and go elsewhere, suddenly, two men who had just entered brought a piece of different news.
“Big trouble!”
“What happened?”
“Someone coming from the south has been rampaging through, causing collateral damage to many people…”
“You mean the Yin-Yang Five from the Devil’s Domain?”
Someone in the audience pointed out the identities. Those present are obviously not uninformed people.
“Ah, you know that?!!”
“This so-called Yin-Yang Five is the top team among the bronze-level assassins in the Devil’s Domain!”
A gray-clothed elder spoke in a dark tone, “Apparently, all the targets that the Yin-Yang Five held in view ended up without a place to be buried. Their bodies, and even their divine spirits, all faced the same fate—death…”
“What?”
Upon hearing these words, the people initially at ease suddenly sat up straight, looking aghast at the elder.
The elderly man in grey clothes sneered, “Do you think I’m lying to you?”
“Sir, you are very knowledgeable. Please tell us more!”
Those who remained in the teahouse were mostly inexperienced young people who hadn’t gone out to experience the world or travelers looking for information, and everyone perked their ears.
The grey-clothed elder laughed, stroking his beard and finally said, “The Yin-Yang Five, the bronze-rated killers of the devil’s domain, their method of killing is unknown. After all, all the people who have witnessed them have died!”
“But according to the clues left by them, it is known that they like to use Curse Soul Powder!”
“Curse Soul Powder?!”
Some greenhorns who just made their way into the world showed puzzled looks.
Soon, some older people offered an explanation instead of the elderly man.
“Curse Soul Powder is a terrifying thing that can kill divine spirits even if they are thousands of miles away!”
“That is to say, if one of your divine spirits is killed by Curse Soul Powder, then all your other divine spirits will die too!”
“Is it that terrifying?”
The young ones trembled a little at this.
“Indeed, it is terrifying. However, the Curse Soul Powder is valuable, and the price for a dose is equivalent to the price of killing a True God. It is not something ordinary people can afford…”
Upon hearing this, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
However, they quickly remembered Yin-Yang Five and asked hastily, “Are you saying that the Yin-Yang Five is in Dragon Dive State?”
“Exactly, these five people seem to be chasing someone from the south. They have recklessly killed many people along the way and left some clues, which led to their discovery…”
“Ah, so does that mean that we might run into them just walking around?”
A young man frightenedly started packing his things and was about to leave, “I have something to do at home, I will be back next time!”
“Ha ha ha!”
Seeing the man fleeing in panic, everyone present couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“This guy is too timid. This is Mo City, the Mo family’s territory. Here is not a place where the Yin-Yang Five can run wild…”
A handsome young man in blue was shaking his head and smiling, when suddenly he seemed to choke on his words.
The paper fan in his hand abruptly gripped his own throat.
“Ugh, ugh, ugh!!!”
At this moment, it seemed as if someone was gripping his throat, making him unable to breathe.
“Crack!”
Everyone in the teahouse was startled and stood up, looking around in panic.
“What’s wrong with him?”
“It seems like someone cast a spell on him…”
Just then, a chilling voice sounded.
“The Mo family? The mere Mo family, dares to interfere in our affairs in the Devil’s Domain?!”
Upon these words, the whole room was in an uproar.
All the people retreated in fright, their heads shaking left and right, looking around as if trying to identify the source of the voice.
Just then, a terrified roar came from the second floor.
“Yin-Yang Five, you’ve left a trail of dead in your wake, barren everywhere you go. Flee while you can~!”
Upon hearing this, everyone in the tea house immediately fled.
Du Gang also left along with the crowd.
After days of escape, he had gathered quite a lot of information about his enemies.
One critical piece of information, the reason for his long survival, was that the so-called Yin-Yang Five could only locate a general area, not his exact location.
So, he changed his strategy from initially hiding in the deep mountains and forests to specifically hiding in big cities.
“Stop them!”
Another voice rose; Du Gang recognized it as the strongest among the Yin-Yang Five.
Hmm!
He sneered and ran towards the Mo family’s Gem Gambling Hall not far from the tea house. His face showed the panic of an ordinary person, but his pace was quite fast.
He chose this tea house for a reason. Although the tea house’s defenses were weak, the defenses of the Gem Gambling Hall were strong.
Within any family’s power, the Gem Gambling Hall always had the strongest defense.
This teahouse was the nearest one to the Mo family’s Gem Gambling Hall; therefore, while Du Gang and the others were evacuating, they fled towards the gambling site.
With all the commotion at the tea house, the situation was quickly noticed at the gambling site.
“Who dares to run wild in Mo City?!”
A voice full of prestige sounded from the gambling hall.
Upon hearing these words, Du Gang was delighted because this was a True God Level expert whose words carried a true-word effect.
The true-word effect was manifested in the word “wild” as if it had come to life and hit the location where the Yin-Yang Five had just appeared.
“Damn!”
The Yin-Yang Five themselves were stunned. They used unusual means to traverse from the shadows and didn’t pay careful attention to the surroundings. Seeing this scene nearly scared them witless.
“Run!”
Given the situation, the Yin-Yang Five quickly pulled out a Divine Artifact which had reached the True God Level, activated its self-destruct, and threw it away, then they disappeared into the shadows once again.
The Divine Artifact instantly released endless might. The energy it contained seemed as if it could blow up the entire city.
Everyone who witnessed this scene looked as if their eyes were about to pop, like a doomsday scenario.
“Stop!!”
Just then, the hidden True God Level expert quickly spat out a word, fixing the True God artifact that was on the verge of explosion in place.
“Quiet!”
Then came another word of truth.
Unfortunately, by the time he looked back at the tea house, the Yin-Yang Five had disappeared without a trace.
“Hmph, you got away quickly!”
This True God Level expert, focused primarily on protecting the Gem Gambling Hall and showed no intention of pursuing, snorted coldly and returned to the Gem Gambling Hall, disappearing from sight.
“Safe at last!”
At this moment, all the people who had been running in a frenzy stopped on their tracks and heaved a sigh of relief.
Also, Du Gang and the others present, all faced the Gem Gambling Hall and bowed slightly.
“Thank you, seniors, for saving our lives!” they thanked in unison.
There was no response from the direction of the Gem Gambling Hall; it was as if they didn’t hear them.
Such ignorance didn’t bother the crowd; they left on their own after paying respects to the Gem Gambling Hall.
Most of these people were shaken and headed for their respective families.
A small number of thick-skinned people did not leave; instead, they returned to the tea house and began to laugh boisterously.
Du Gang mixed with the departing crowd and could still hear the words spoken by those returning to the tea house.
“That Yin-Yang Five is no big deal, even dare to brag…”
Listening to these words, Du Gang couldn’t help shaking his head secretly. These people were truly stupid.
The reason they survived was purely because of his choice of location: its proximity to the Gem Gambling Hall, which brought out the True God Level expert to save them.
The Yin-Yang Five, however, managed to retreat successfully even after the intervention of the True God Level expert, indicating their extraordinary nature.
He, at least, wasn’t confident enough to escape from a True God Level expert.
Du Gang didn’t plan on staying here any longer. Although the Gem Gambling Hall had strong figures and Yin-Yang Five didn’t dare to cause more trouble, they might have other means or other high-level demonic figures could get involved.
So, he would rather switch locations to avoid attracting higher-level demonic beings as much as possible.
And he had a destination in mind: the Dragon Dive Abyss!
He wasn’t planning on going to other teahouses. In Mo City, there were several other teahouses close to gambling sites, just like the one he had just been to.
However, if he went there again, it would definitely not be as effective as before; Yin-Yang Five, having learned their lesson, would become more cautious.
Therefore, the Dragon Dive Abyss was the best place!
Upon arriving in the Dragon Dive State a week ago, he had heard many things about the Dragon Dive Abyss and the Gloomy Sun Grass that grew there.
Gloomy Sun Grass was a treasure that even Du Gang coveted enormously!
Acquiring this treasure meant that he could break the shackles of the God Spirit Level and practice his martial art to a level surpassing one hundred and five percent. As for how much he could exceed, he didn’t know yet.
However, news about this level of treasure had already spread through Southern Wilderness after fermentation. According to his understanding, all the extraordinary figures from around Southern Wilderness had already rushed over.
Most importantly, several powerful people listed in the Human Ranking had already reached there.
“Buzz!”
As soon as Du Gang stepped out of the city gate, his Divine Soul suddenly felt a burning sensation, and he slowed his steps.
[The second task is about to start. Please proceed to the designated location in the Dragon Dive Abyss to enter the Heavenly Court space…]
[Countdown: 23:59:59]
What a coincidence?
Du Gang didn’t show any abnormalities and quickly left the vicinity of the city gate. After entering the wilderness, he diverted some of his attention to checking the task location.
A thousand meters below the Dragon Dive Abyss?
After seeing the location instructed in the task, Du Gang frowned.
These days, having moved around the Dragon Dive State, he had gained a reasonable understanding of the Dragon Dive Abyss.
He knew about the terrifying winds within the chasm which could injure the divine soul and damage cultivation.

The intensity doubled every 100 meters, so a thousand meters meant doubling ten times?
He pondered inwardly, sighing.
Since he was already bound to Heavenly Court, there was no way to escape it. So no matter how terrifying the Dragon Dive Abyss was, he had to enter!
What he didn’t know was whether the Yin-Yang Five could still pinpoint his location after he entered the Heavenly Court. If they could, then he was doomed!
