Chapter 1028: Chapter 556: The Sloppy Prodigy Teams Up with Jiang Shu! Supreme Geniuses Become Blood Sacrifice!

Jiang Shu’s reputation had long echoed throughout the Star Ruins Realm.

With Jiang Shu protecting him, he could heal his wounds without worry.

Jiang Shu’s arrival was akin to a stone being cast into calm waters, drawing everyone’s attention.

"Jiang Shu? Weren’t there ancient monstrosities looking to make trouble for him? How did he arrive so swiftly?"

"Don’t forget what kind of person he is, capable of overcoming all challenges."

"Not easy to deal with, it seems the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance made the right bet this time. But unfortunately for Jiang Shu, being born into the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance, had he leveraged his relationship with Wind Cloud Pride and joined the War Alliance, his path might have been smoother."

Two supreme geniuses exchanged glances, observing Jiang Shu’s condition with their peripheral vision.

They both were powerful geniuses of this era, believing themselves to be strong. After Jiang Shu became famous, one of them thought he could similarly contend with Wind Cloud Pride.

The outcome was incredibly tragic; he had several of his major bones broken. If it weren’t for the rapid recovery within the Eternal Tower, he might have missed the opportunity of the Deep Space Sea by now.

It was at that moment he truly understood how fearsome Jiang Shu from Jiuyu Commerce Alliance was.

"Being born in the same era as such a character, one wonders whether it’s good or bad."

Supreme geniuses fear having no opponents; only with opponents can they compete. But when their rivals are excessively strong, they become as imposing as a mountain upon them.

No matter to what realm they cultivate or achievements they reach, they never forget the vast gulf between themselves and that figure, generating a strong sense of disparity that affects their stable Dao Heart.

"What place is this?"

As the two spoke, a sudden unfamiliar voice arose from behind.

Their bodies trembled; they recognized whose voice it was.

What terrified them was, even being so close, they couldn’t detect Jiang Shu’s presence. If Jiang Shu hadn’t spoken, they wouldn’t have realized his arrival.

Terrifying!

Jiang Shu’s power undeniably surpassed their imaginations.

If he had chosen to attack instead of conversing, the two might have already been dead, bodies decimated and Dao extinguished.

"Seems he must have found out."

Completely unbothered by their wariness, Jiang Shu’s voice was calm, with his advantage lying in the Two Realms Shuttle and more profound understanding of Great Dao Laws.

The drawback was his limited time in the Star Ruins Realm. Despite consulting Jiuyu Commerce Alliance’s texts, the Alliance hadn’t deeply ventured into the Inner Circle, and the texts’ records were ambiguous and unclear.

As for the War Alliance, he was newly named there, with secret information not easily obtained.

His information channels were still insufficient; instead of exploring himself, it’s better to speak directly and inquire at this moment.

"From our detection, this Abyss contains an opportunity, seemingly a powerful Law Origin. It is due to its presence that the Abyss formed."

The calmer Jiang Shu was, the more the two cultivators felt trepidation. After exchanging a glance, one of them bit his lip, speaking out all he knew.

His gaze shifted from the two to the Abyss.

Through careful perception, Jiang Shu discovered a faint emission of scorching breath from the Abyss, almost undetectable.

Located at the center of the Flame Layer and Thunder Layer, the Abyss emanating heat seemed commonplace.

Yet Jiang Shu sensed something different within.

The space seemed to be heavier.

This heaviness was concealed beneath the barely perceptible heat, only Jiang Shu’s perception could discern it.

"Why not descend?"

Jiang Shu asked again.

These geniuses were not ones to linger without reason.

"This..."

The two exchanged glances, momentarily speechless.

Truthfully, they weren’t sure what the Abyss held; only upon arrival had they discovered some people’s terrified expressions, hesitating, their inquiries met with vague replies describing the place as complex.

Thus, they were cautious about descending, deciding to wait longer for others to arrive and venture together.

"What could be inside."

Standing at the Abyss Edge, Jiang Shu looked down, seeing only darkness and blurriness.

"Within lies great danger and strange life forms. Before we arrived, I witnessed an ancient monstrosity swallowed by the Abyss, its fate unknown!"

The pair hailed from powerful factions, possessing formidable strength and profound foundations; importantly, their broader perspective meant recognizing every ancient monstrosity.

The devoured ancient monstrosity, despite not surpassing Jiang Shu in talent and realm, had comprehended numerous laws, possessing Star Artifacts fused with laws, having defeated countless cultivators of the same realm.

But merely two exchanges with the Abyss’s strange life form left his body half shattered, plunging into the endless Abyss with fate unknown.

They hadn’t considered descending for rescue due to the immense risk, leaving them lingering at the Abyss Edge.

Moreover, the ancient pride held a Teleportation Token; if he truly couldn’t defeat the strange life form, he would crush the Token to teleport out immediately.
