The dragon descends!

Chapter 80

There were no stars in the sky, and thick black clouds piled up overhead, torn by the wind into all sorts of strange shadows.

Shi An walks alone in the dark.

It was pitch black in all directions, and the depths of the teenager's dark eyes glittered with jumping streams of light.

He seemed to know exactly where he was going next, and his pace was swift and steady, without hesitation.

"My lord! My lord--"

Faint shouts came from behind.

Shi An lurched in her step, turning her head to look behind her.

Only to see black smoke curled with magic insects floating in the air, the eyeball followed behind them with two short thin legs and ran wildly, shouting as he ran, "My lord! Wait for me!"

Shi An: "......"

I have to say, this is a really weird scene.

Soon, the three demons caught up.

"My lord, why did you suddenly rush out without a word!" The Devil Worm broke free from the black smoke and flapped its wings to land on Shi An's shoulder, asking worriedly.

Shi An was stunned, "You guys didn't feel it?"

The three demons look at each other in disbelief "......"

Worm hesitated and asked rhetorically, "Feel what?"

The smell of darkness, accompanied by silent whispers coming from far away, faint but clear.

Shi An thought about it and tried to describe it:

"...... smells good."

It's kind of like an abyssal rift, but it doesn't seem quite like it.

At that moment, Eyeball suddenly shouted, "Ah! It seems to be true!"

Devil Worm whispered:

"Che, it's just a borrowed pole to climb up the ladder."

Eyeball snorted coldly, "I used to be the Eye of the Abyss, there is no demonic creature in this world that is more sensitive to the cracks of the Abyss than me, I think you are just jealous!"

It looked towards Shi An and said seriously, "There should really be an abyssal rift nearby, but it may not have been long since it was created, and the aura is still very weak, even I have only just sensed it."

Shi An was a bit surprised.

After losing his power and being confined to his human form, although he could still sense the aura of the abyss, his sensitivity was far less than that of the abyssal species that originally came from the abyss, but this time ......

It seems to be the complete opposite.

He turned his head, looking thoughtfully in the direction the scent had come from.

Magic Worm asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

Shi An shook his head, scooped up the three demons and put them in his pocket and said, "Come on, let's go check it out."

The further he moved forward, the more distinct that dark and cold aura became.

Shi An unconsciously swallowed.

Finally, he came to the place where the scent originated.

Shi An stopped and looked into the darkness before her.

Not far away, a narrow chasm stretched across the landscape.

Obviously, as the eyeball had said, this abyssal rift should have just been born not long ago, not wide or deep enough, with fuzzy edges that clearly had not yet completely overlapped with the continent, with just a hint of an inconspicuous aura spilling out from it.

Shi An pauses, bends down, and picks up a dark stone from the edge of the abyssal chasm.

The surface was smooth and black as eternal night, as if not a single ray of light could be refracted from it.

This is ...... mineral material from the abyss.

Not quite a gem, but it contained pure dark power, the same type as the one Shi Rui had placed at his bedside earlier.

Although it is true that this kind of stone could appear in an abyssal rift that has already grown to completion, it appears ...... in the periphery of such an abyssal rift?

The likelihood estimate is low.

Then there's a good chance someone put it here.

It is also quite possible that the rift before us was summoned by such an inducement.

But ...... Shi An's first thought was not this.

For him, who was once in his heyday, these stones had no effect on the growth of his strength, it was like pouring a glass of water into the sea, it would not bring any change, but the scent would still be very comforting to him, so Shi An used to move quite a lot of these mineral mines to his own cave for decoration.

After experiencing several previous encounters, and then seeing these rocks in front of her, Shi An's first thought was ......

These wouldn't be his too, would they?

Shi An narrowed her eyes slightly.

He thought back to his earlier encounter with the brazen human thieves in the Avon district, and a little bit slowly tightened his fingers.

And more importantly ......

If the ores were really theirs, could the thieves have taken anything else?

Shi An's eyes turned cold.

"Ka-ching!"

The stone shattered into powder between the teenager's slender white fingers, fluttering down and being swallowed by the darkness.

The three demons were silenced, almost subconsciously shrinking in the direction away from Shi An.

Although Lord Gargoyle usually seemed approachable and lazy as if he was very Buddhist, if any person really touched his dead center, he would become extremely terrifying.

Like right now.

Although they didn't know what was happening, the aura from Shi An's body became extremely very scary, and they were about to be unable to breathe at such a close distance.

Shi An lightly patted the stone shavings between her fingers and headed into the abyssal chasm in front of her.

The slender figure of the teenager was swallowed by the darkness of the crack.

In that instant, the already narrow and fuzzy gap suddenly cracked wider.

A clearer and sharper wave of magic power escaped from it.

Not far.

Mu Hang seemed to suddenly sense something and snapped his eyes up, looking in a certain direction.

It was at this moment that a member of the Administration stumbled in through the door, coming up for air and reporting, "Chief, sir! The detectors have detected an abnormal magic power fluctuation!"

He took a breath and continued, "It appears to be a nascent abyssal rift-"

The man's tone was cold, interrupting the other's unfocused report:

"Location?"

"Positive, being in the academy!"

Mu Hang looked stern.

He calmly and succinctly ordered that the students be evacuated, the site be cordoned off, and squads be organized.

Mu Hang's eyes sank slightly as he gazed at the orderly scene in front of him.

He paused and pulled his cell phone from his pocket.

The screen lit up and still showed none on the signal one frame.

Since a few hours ago, the signal towers inside the Ableist Academy had suffered some kind of interference and were unable to receive any signals.

Mu Hang knew full well that this fledgling abyssal rift was not very harmful, and the readings were not too high, especially since it would never spread with himself, and the Administration's large force, present.

Moreover, he now knew very well that Shi An's strength should be able to cope with this crisis easily.

But ......

This feeling of not being able to take the other person under his protective wing was something Mu Hang disliked.

His voice was cold and low as he put his cell phone back into his pocket and raised his eyes towards the neatly described squad in front of him:

"Departure."

In that case, it's better to make it quick.

As long as the germ of danger is nipped in the bud, there is no need to worry about the well-being of those you care about.

*

Step by step, the teenager stepped out towards the depths of the abyss.

His figure was slender, his face pale, and he looked especially fragile and small against the dark walls surrounding him.

Beneath the long, dark eyelashes were a pair of golden-red vertical pupils.

Flames blazed in the depths of his thin, narrow pupils, treacherous and cruel in the darkness of the four corners of the room.

The terrifying aura belonging to the dragon poured out without restraint, covering the entire surroundings like a substantial aura.

It was as if a huge pitch-black shadow was brewing and manifesting behind the slender form of the human teenager.

The aura was ancient and dangerous, as if a long-sleeping beast had opened its eyes in the abyss and cast a cold, indifferent glance.

It was pure suppression from the soul and bloodline.

The intense fear that awakened from the depths of his instincts could be felt just by being close.

Normally, as soon as the abyssal rift opened, the smaller-sized abyssal species began to rush out of the rift with impatience, surging towards the surface of the continent.

But this time is different.

The abyssal species fled in terror at the bottom of the abyss, itching to burrow back to where they came from, not daring to take half a step closer to the human teenager with the terrifying aura.

Shi An stared at the recently born rift in front of her.

Now he could clearly perceive it.

The sweet-smelling scent did not come from the abyss itself, but from the bottom of the abyss.

The closer you get, the thicker it gets.

Shi An suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Through the dark, poisonous fog, he saw a black and red eyeball glowing among the cliffs not far away.

Below the Eye of the Abyss, pitch-black ores were arranged in strange shapes, and blood was spreading across the ground blackened by magical erosion, the half-dried blood shimmering in the darkness with a strange faintness.

It was a phalanx drawn in blood.

The aroma in the air became thicker and stronger, like an invisible hand urging and pushing.

Shi An took a subconscious step forward.

The instant his feet fell, the spell formation drawn in blood suddenly lit up!

Twisted lines of scarlet extend outward.

Shi An then realized that the spell at the bottom of the Eye of the Abyss was only the core of the entire spell, and the blood-colored patterns lit up from the stone walls and the ground, spreading all the way to his feet.

Not far away, the Abyssal Eye seemed to suddenly sense something, the black slit in the center of the eyeball abruptly tightened, and the entire eyeball violently trembled.

The crimson light was pulled from the eye of the abyss and was yanked hard within the spell.

In that moment, Shi An's eyes widened.

He could feel ...... the pure abyssal magic power was pouring into his body in a steady stream.

Like a river flowing into a dry canyon, it washed over him.

The teenager's eyes turned into an extremely pure red color, with light golden aura running through them, as hot and fiery as molten magma.

Clear lines of scales emerged on the white face, silver scales reflecting fiery streams of light.

His face was still as pretty and harmless as ever, paradoxical and dangerous against this inhuman trait.

In the distance, high up on a rocky ledge, a figure in a black hood emerges from the cover of the night.

Due to the limitations of their strength, they were unable to directly enter within the abyssal rift, and could only stand far away from the outer edge of the rift, looking downward with their heads bowed.

Through the layers of dark, poisonous fog, a constantly flickering red light could be seen below.

Strong magical fluctuations stirred up with the crack as the center.

The heavy clouds in the sky overhead were wrapped and tumbling, with a bit of an unusual blood-red glow vaguely flowing through them.

The black-robed man knelt down at the edge of the cliff.

They pressed their foreheads against the cold rock and bowed with unquestioning devotion, murmuring fervent words under their breath.

The ground was flooded with strong vibrations, and the huge body of the dragon was vaguely visible in the dark, poisonous fog.

"The dragon descends!"

The ecstatic voices converged into a torrent going straight to the sky.
