Chapter 127 Ahead lies the abyss of ice fissures; you have arrived at your destination.
However, Shi Qian was wrong this time.
It was even somewhat ridiculously wrong.
Because in front of them was a huge chasm that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Whether viewed horizontally or vertically, it stretches as far as the eye can see.
Shi Qian was somewhat unable to estimate how many squares he was on the other side of the abyss.
The other side was even shrouded in mist, too far away.
Standing at the edge, looking up, one sees a sky that the main body has hardly seen since arriving here.
Downwards, into a bottomless abyss.
So, the Ice Rift Abyss really is an abyss...
It's breathtaking; the ice on both sides looks like it's been cleaved open.
The gaps between each ice layer are clearly visible, and even some of the deep blue algae growing on the edges have long been exposed to the air.
The sea turtle they were following was crawling along the edge.
They seem quite familiar with this place, and are walking down a downward passage.
But didn't the dolphin say that only one sea turtle had ever been to the Ice Rift Abyss?
Is there something else going on here, or is the dolphin lying...?
Since the sea turtles can understand human speech, Shi Qian and Mo Niao didn't speak a word the whole way, communicating solely through system messages.
"Boss, why do we have to go so fast... I can't even see where the sea turtle is behind us anymore."
"Behind?"
Turn on the radar and you'll find that you've already left the sea turtle far behind. Go back and continue chasing the sea turtle.
"Boss, can't sea turtles talk?"
"Yes, but they can understand."
"That's fine..."
...
They followed the sea turtle down from the edge of the ice sheet.
The Ice Rift Abyss truly lives up to its name, with no end in sight as it descends.
Shi Qian even felt that this dimension had no height limit.
The depth here is even lower than that of Westmoon City, but it hasn't stopped yet.
However, at this point, looking back in the direction we came from, we could no longer see any light, and we didn't know what the ice layer here was like.
Are they fragments stuck in the soil and rocks?
After walking down for a while, Shi Qian saw something familiar.
The black mist was exactly the same as that at the entrance of the boiling spring, and only the path leading downwards could be vaguely seen.
The sea turtle stopped and shook its head, pointing in the direction it had been heading.
It indicates that it has reached this point and cannot proceed any further.
"Let's go then."
'Boss, have you ever seen something like this before? It's completely black and you don't seem scared at all...'
Mo Niao cautiously followed behind Shi Qian, holding a useless torch in his hand.
He's not afraid of death, that's fine, but if he dies and goes back to see no part of the story, he'll be missing out big time.
If the blocky man could touch the clothes, Mo Niao would probably have torn Shi Qian to pieces by the hem of his clothes right now.
Sensing Mo Niao's nervousness, Shi Qian simply lassoed him with a rope and led him around.
"Hey? Hey hey hey? Boss! There's no need! Really! I can walk! I'm not afraid!"
Hearing the howling of Mo Niao behind him, Shi Qian nodded in satisfaction.
The fact that it can speak, shout, and is alive and well indicates that the treatment is very effective.
If I get the flying skill in the future, will I be able to take my monster cubs and the players I've recruited to fly around in the sky like this?
Good idea. Hopefully, we can find monsters like this in the next dimension.
However, theoretically speaking, it seems possible now, since the Phantom Wing can fly, and standing on it and controlling the Phantom Wing would have the same effect.
It's a pity that none of the clones could leave.
Mo Niao only shouted a few words at first, but after realizing that the protest was ineffective, he stopped.
Since we're already here, we might as well make the best of it. Besides, this is our own boss, the great devil Shi Qian!
Thinking of this, Mo Niao reached for the screen recording button again.
But the black fog was so thick that nothing could be seen.
Mo Niao made a few quick notes and then gave up.
We continued downhill for an unknown amount of time until we finally passed through the area of black fog.
Shi Qian and Mo Niao regained their sight, but Mo Niao was still completely in the dark, and the torch could only illuminate the ground beneath his feet.
It's a very open space, and further down there's water covering it.
The surrounding ice blocks are no longer arranged in layers, but have been squeezed together to form an ice wall.
Since they reached the black fog, they hadn't taken any detours or turned corners, and had gone straight ahead.
When Mo Niao saw the water, he put a turtle shell on himself.
They are definitely going to go into the water, but they don't know how deep it is.
The thick black fog obscured the light of day above the abyss, and even with Shi Qian's night vision, he couldn't see how deep the water was.
He really wanted to say something like, "Oh ocean, you're all water..."
There must be water at the bottom of the Ice Rift Abyss!
They descended to the end of the passage, where they entered the water directly; there were no other places to land nearby.
Shi Qian just tried to knock on the ice here, but he couldn't, which means it's an indestructible type, just like a portal.
Is it because there is an energy core here?
As soon as Shi Qian and Mo Niao entered the water, speckled lights appeared around them.
It's not a particle effect, and I didn't see any blocks resembling dark blue algae.
Wave--
The sound of bubbles bursting indicates the presence of life here.
The points of light moved slowly, converging to form a three-dimensional road.
It seemed to be guiding Shi Qian and his group in the right direction.
"Looks like we've come to the right place. I thought we'd have to run through several more Ice Rift Abysses."
Shi Qian's good fortune struck again.
With this kind of setup, he wouldn't believe it if you said this wasn't the place.
It felt like walking the red carpet, much like the rebirth area in a certain game.
In the blue water, starlight converges and extends into the depths.
Shi Qian retrieved the rope tethering Mo Niao's body and swam together in the indicated direction.
...
"Is this still the game I play?"
Mo Niao was amazed and found it hard to believe the signals his retina was transmitting to his brain.
He was speechless at the sight before him; the words stuck in his throat and almost made his CPU crash.
"Boss, is this right?"
Mo Niao pointed ahead, asking incredulously.
Shi Qian nodded, feigning seriousness.
"I do not know either."
"..."
A strangely shaped fish swam up.
No, this shape can't even be called a "fish".
With only a body and no head, the pixelated torso appears disproportionately distorted.
It's a pale pink color with a strangely soft and chewy texture, perhaps a distant cousin of some blobfish.
But it's definitely not as pretty as the blobfish.
"Let me introduce myself, gentlemen. It's a pleasure to have you here. You may call me 'Faceless Fish'."
There was no mouth movement, and it was unclear which part of the body produced the sound.
It was as if the entire interior of the faceless fish's enormous body resonated and echoed, enabling it to utter such a complete passage.
"But gentlemen, do you really believe everything those guys say?"
