 Chapter 2435: Two Paths, Both Difficult!

Standing in front of the waterfall, looking at the bottomless pit, Lin Moyu did not immediately enter.

The Skeleton Generals were still searching, and Lin Moyu wanted to make a final confirmation if there were any other paths besides the one in front of him.

The pit was not safe, and if possible, he didn't want to go in.

Earlier, the Brocade Lich had nearly been killed. Those little insects in the pit were terrifying.

The Skeleton Generals searched every corner thoroughly, entering deep mountains and old forests, diving into lakes, digging three feet into the ground, but found nothing.

"It seems there's only this one path left."

"The insects in the pit are not easy to deal with, but we have to try!"

Lin Moyu's mind moved, and a batch of Skeleton Generals charged into the pit.

As they went deeper, the pit became darker and darker until all light disappeared.

Soon, tiny blue-green glowing lights appeared.

Lin Moyu frowned slightly, "Not living beings?"

The Eye of the Undead remained open, and in its view, these little insects had no soul fire.

Having no soul fire meant these insects were not living beings.

If they weren't living beings, then what were they?

A Skeleton General swung its sword, unleashing white bone sword energy that illuminated the pit.

For a moment, the pit seemed to become a world of white bones. The sword energy engulfed the little insects, but contrary to Lin Moyu's expectations, it didn't cause an explosion.

The little insects ignored the sword energy, passing through it with their unique blue-green glow, and landed directly on the Skeleton General.

Boom!

An explosion sounded, and the Skeleton General was instantly shattered.

The number of insects was astonishing. They passed through the sword energy at incredible speed, quickly finding their targets.

Explosions continued non-stop, and countless Skeleton Generals were blown to pieces.

Although the explosive power was strong, it was extremely concentrated.

One insect was just enough to kill one Skeleton General, very precise.

The Undying Undead ability took effect, and the Skeleton Generals quickly revived and regenerated.

Lin Moyu was grateful that he had upgraded the Undying Undead to the Origin level, allowing it to still function after leaving the Great World.

"The sword energy actually had no effect. These insects have no souls and ignore sword energy. What exactly are they?"

Lin Moyu summoned more Skeleton Generals to replace the previous batch and continue deeper.

They had barely advanced when another batch of insects flew out, ignoring the sword energy and landing accurately on each Skeleton General.

Amidst the explosions, the Skeleton Generals were once again shattered, then quickly revived.

The Undying Undead could revive Skeleton Generals six times within sixty seconds. As long as the timing was right, these Skeleton Generals wouldn't truly die.

Lin Moyu divided the Skeleton Generals into six groups, alternating them to explore deeper. This way, he could ensure the Skeleton Generals wouldn't truly die.

For now, he couldn't find a way to deal with the insects, so he could only use this suicidal method to explore.

As they went deeper, there were more and more insects, seemingly endless.

Moreover, the frequency and number of insects appearing increased, and even using six groups of Skeleton Generals in rotation was barely enough.

Lin Moyu frowned deeply, pondering a solution, "This method of mine is definitely not right."

"If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to pass through this passage at all."

"Even a high-level Heavenly Venerate probably couldn't do it. There must be another way."

But in the pit, besides the insects, there was only the World Sea waterfall pouring down from above.

Lin Moyu suddenly realized that these insects indeed never entered the waterfall.

"Could it be that the waterfall is the correct path?"

Lin Moyu thought to himself. He had considered this before, but when approaching the waterfall, he had felt a sense of unease.

Now he tried sending Skeleton Generals into the waterfall.

The moment they entered the waterfall, Lin Moyu lost control of the Skeleton Generals.

The waterfall contained immense power, directly sweeping the Skeleton Generals towards the deepest part.

At the same time, waves of enormous force struck the Skeleton Generals like heavy hammers.

The Skeleton Generals only lasted a few seconds before being shattered on the spot.

The damage from the World Sea ignored Lin Moyu's innate ability to connect, and all the damage was borne by this single Skeleton General.

Not only was the innate ability blocked, even the Undying Undead lost its effect.

When the Skeleton General shattered, it was truly dead. Lin Moyu immediately sensed that the number of Skeleton Generals had decreased by one.

"The World Sea water here comes from below 500,000 meters, possibly even reaching a million meters."

"The deeper in the World Sea, the stronger the power it contains."

"The impact force has already exceeded the limit that a Supreme can withstand. Even low-level Heavenly Venerates probably couldn't last long."

"If the waterfall is the correct path, then this path is equally dangerous."

"Or perhaps both paths are correct, just with different approaches."

Lin Moyu had a guess in his heart, feeling that both paths were actually correct.

Going through the pit meant finding a way to deal with the insects.

While going through the waterfall meant being able to withstand its impact force, and it was unknown how long this impact force would last.

There were two choices, and everyone could choose based on their own situation.

The only common point was that neither path was easy.

After careful consideration, Lin Moyu decided to choose the path through the pit.

Compared to the waterfall, this path was more suitable for him.

Moreover, Lin Moyu was very curious about the origin of these insects.

The Skeleton Generals continued to advance in batches. Although the speed was not fast, they were still making progress.

When six batches weren't enough, they could be divided into twelve batches, twenty-four batches.

There were plenty of Skeleton Generals, so there was no fear of running out of rotations.

Lin Moyu also followed the team into the pit, gradually going deeper.

After advancing an unknown distance, the number of insects continued to increase. Now the Skeleton Generals were divided into twenty-four batches, encountering a batch of insects almost every two or three seconds.

Amidst the continuous explosions, a slight smile appeared at the corners of Lin Moyu's mouth. He had finally figured out how to break through this situation!

...

Deep in the World Sea, a plaza was glowing brightly. The formation in the plaza kept the World Sea water out.

Outside the plaza, there was a huge figure covering half of it. Anyone who approached would be mercilessly killed by it.

Suddenly, a faint light appeared on the empty plaza.

A World Sea decree appeared on the plaza and was then taken away by a force.

The World Sea decree was originally carried by each Heavenly Venerate. Now that the decree had returned without the Heavenly Venerate, it meant this Heavenly Venerate had died.

Gradually, people began to appear on the plaza, holding World Sea decrees, with shocked expressions.

When they realized they had returned, their faces showed expressions of wild joy.

Some also had dejected looks, standing motionless.

Everyone's emotions were different, but without exception, they had all narrowly escaped death, almost dying in that special space.

If it weren't for relying on the World Sea decree at the last moment, they wouldn't have been able to return at all.

Only now did they realize that the special space wasn't just a bit dangerous, it was extremely dangerous.

As time passed, more and more people returned, and more and more World Sea decrees came back.

They finally realized that being able to escape back was fortunate.

Those whose World Sea decrees returned alone had already died there.

The path of cultivation is fraught with danger at every step, with danger and opportunity coexisting. All Heavenly Venerates knew this point.

Dying halfway was a common occurrence.
