Chapter 206 The Military Strategist's Flying Immortal City, Ninefold Thunder Abyss
The great calamity of the end times will arrive in a hundred years or a sixty-year period.
Upon hearing this news from Shang Hongye, Fang Heng fell silent.

According to Shang Hongye, once the great calamity of the end times arrives, the entire land of China will be overthrown.

The best outcome is to become an exile like an evil god.

Shang Hongye seemed to sense the heaviness in Fang Heng's heart, chuckled softly, and comforted him, saying:

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry too much. Since our sages of military strategy foresaw the great calamity of the end times, they naturally left behind countermeasures!"

"What's the solution?"

A glimmer of hope ignited in Fang Heng's heart, and he was filled with curiosity about the solution Shang Hongye had mentioned.

"Through the deductions of ancient military strategists, it was discovered that a Flying Immortal City could be built. After the destruction of the Divine Land, the Flying Immortal City could survive independently in the void and protect the peace of the region."

Flying Immortal City?
This... isn't much better than an evil god.

The evil god is a person on the run.

Feixiancheng fled with the people of an entire city.

But no matter how large Feixian City is, the number of people it can take away is extremely limited, and compared with the living beings of the entire Divine Continent, it is just a drop in the ocean.

Shang Hongye was unaware of Fang Heng's thoughts. When the topic of Flying Immortal City came up, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Unfortunately, Flying Immortal City involves many military strategies, and it has not yet been built."

"If we could have the help of a master strategist, the construction of Flying Immortal City would surely be accelerated."

A master of military strategy?

Is this why Shang Hongye contacted me through Du Hui, the Sixth Prince's guest advisor?
Fang Heng recalled that Shang Hongye had contacted Hei Wuchang in the City of Life and Death.

It turns out it was all for the purpose of building Flying Immortal City.

However, after Fang Heng used the identity of Black Impermanence to take advantage of Shang Hongye, he never contacted her again.

It means you stood the other person up.

Perhaps next time, I can use the identity of Black Impermanence to see the Flying Immortal City that Shang Hongye mentioned.

Fang Heng thought secretly in his heart.

Setting aside the weighty topic of the Great Calamity of the End Times, Fang Heng changed the subject, saying instead:
"Red Leaf, I have mastered the secret technique you gave me last time."

"When will we be able to find the entrance to Thunder Abyss?"

Upon hearing the words "secret method," Shang Hongye blushed as if she had heard something obscene, revealing a delicate beauty like that of a peach blossom in February.

"Searching for Lei Yuan..."

"This... can begin anytime..."

"That's good!"

"It's better to choose a day than to hit it."

Upon hearing Fang Heng's invitation, Shang Hongye lowered her head and let out a soft "yes" through her delicate nose.

After a cup of tea.

In the meditation room.

Fang Heng and Shang Hongye sat facing each other, cross-legged, and could both feel each other's breath.

A faint, ethereal fragrance wafted over, causing Fang Heng to involuntarily take a deep breath.

"let's start!"

Fang Heng said in a deep voice. Shang Hongye nodded slightly, composed herself, and quickly activated her secret technique.

Although the dual cultivation secret method only requires the fusion of qi, it does not require real fighting.

But this feeling of merging energies still made Shang Hongye feel as if she had been stripped naked in front of Fang Heng.

Seemingly sensing Shang Hongye's nervousness, Fang Heng spoke softly, his voice carrying a hint of magnetism.

"Relax and follow my energy flow."

Gradually, Shang Hongye felt her muscles begin to relax.

At the same time, it's unclear whether it was just her imagination.

Your Highness, how are you so proficient in the art of dual cultivation?

The two people's energy swirled and merged above the meditation room.

They formed a Tai Chi symbol, rotating in mid-air.

Thunderbolts were everywhere on the Tai Chi diagram, with countless lightning snakes moving about, like a thunder pool, and the sound of thunder echoed continuously.

After casting the secret spell, both Fang Heng and Shang Hongye inexplicably felt a summons from afar.

This faint call was extremely weak, seemingly coming from the heavens, yet it truly existed.

The source of the summons is the holy land that countless lightning cultivators dream of—the Thunder Abyss.

In ancient times, an evil god descended.

The Five Thunder Gods, one of the twelve ancient saints, suppressed the evil god under the Thunder Abyss, and died from exhaustion.

He left all his life's learning in the Thunder Abyss.

Even if a cultivator in later generations only obtains a rudimentary inheritance, he can still become a powerful expert who can suppress a region.

The founder of the Shenxiao Sect obtained a core inheritance of the Five Thunder Heavenly Venerable—Yang Five Thunder—in the Thunder Abyss.

That's how we built our current foundation.

After a short while, Fang Heng and Shang Hongye opened their eyes at the same time, their eyes revealing a deep joy.

found it!
They found the entrance to Thunder Abyss through a secret method.

Moreover, the entrance to Leiyuan is not far from Yujing City, just outside Tongzhou City.

"Let's go to Tongzhou!"

……

He lived in seclusion in a thatched hut.

"Thank you, True Lord Tian Dun, for casting a divination for me." Xiao Wujiu bowed to an old man with white hair in gratitude.

The white-haired old man before us is none other than the Heavenly Escape True Lord, one of the most outstanding celestial strategists of our time.

The Heavenly Escape True Monarch closed his eyes slightly and said calmly:
"After I get back, I'll tell old man Xuan Ting that I've repaid the favor I owed him."

"Don't bother me in my peace and quiet again unless it's absolutely necessary."

"I will certainly pass on the message."

After bidding farewell to Tian Dun Zhenjun, Xiao Wujiu did not return to the ancestral home of the Shenxiao Sect. Instead, he headed straight for Tongzhou, his eagerness for Lei Yuan evident in his words.

He had obtained the Thunder Abyss Suppressing Evil Token many years ago.

Unfortunately, he couldn't find the entrance to Thunder Abyss, leaving Xiao Wujiu with a sense of frustration, like someone who had a treasure mountain but couldn't enter it.

Even if he is an elder of the Shenxiao Sect, even if he is a powerhouse of the tenth realm.

There was nothing that could be done about this helplessness and frustration.

There are no more than five people in the entire Divine Continent who can use the art of celestial divination to directly deduce the location of Thunder Abyss.

Therefore, if you want to try your luck, you can only rely on pure luck.

Today, under the guidance of the Heavenly Escape True Lord, Xiao Wujiu finally dispelled the gloom in his heart and learned the exact location of the Thunder Abyss entrance.

Tongzhou.

Dark clouds gathered and thunder roared.

Fang Heng and Shang Hongye spent half a day arriving in Tongzhou.

Fang Heng had other thoughts and plans besides seeking the inheritance of the Five Thunder Celestial Venerable when he chose to enter Thunder Abyss at this time.

With the final imperial examination approaching, Fang Heng had already discussed with his avatar how to pull off a big heist.

Regardless of whether the Ten Great Dao Courts agree to abandon their invincible martial artists, Fang Heng intends to wipe them all out during the final trial.

This move will surely enrage the Ten Great Dao Courts.

Fang Heng entered Lei Yuan also to sever ties with the matter.

In any case, the connection between him and his avatar cannot be severed even in the secret realm.

As for the wrath of the Ten Great Dao Courts?

For the sake of all living beings, I have no choice but to suffer even more and transform myself!

"The entrance to Thunder Abyss is just ahead!"

Shang Hongye's gentle voice startled Fang Heng from his thoughts. The entrance to Thunder Abyss was located deep within the thunderclouds.

To reach the entrance to Thunder Abyss, one must pass through layers of thunderclouds and endure countless thunderstorms.

For ordinary cultivators, it might even pose a threat.

But for a lightning cultivator like Fang Heng, it was like walking on flat ground.

Fang Heng, carrying Shang Hongye, used a beam of light to rush into the thunderclouds.

Thunderclouds were filled with lightning.

Countless lightning snakes roamed between heaven and earth, like a lightning net spread across the sky.

Suddenly, thunder roared.

Rumble!

A bolt of purple lightning descended from the sky, striking Fang Heng and his companion.

Seeing this, Fang Heng remained calm and raised his hand to unleash a Azure Emperor Yin-Yang Divine Thunder.

Azure lightning shot into the sky, tearing through the heavens.

Faced with the Azure Emperor's Yin-Yang Divine Thunder, the heavenly thunder seemed to soften instantly, like a subject meeting his king.

Unable to move, it was swallowed up by the divine thunder generated by the Azure Emperor's Yin and Yang.

Shang Hongye, standing to the side, saw Fang Heng easily repel the heavenly lightning, and her beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration.

Is this the Jiamu Divine Thunder of Changqing Temple?
It seems to be somewhat different from what was rumored.

Its power was far greater than the rumors suggested, and it so easily repelled the heavenly lightning.

In fact, the word "repel" cannot be used.

Instead, they kowtowed and paid homage!

Along the way, Fang Heng repelled more than a dozen bolts of heavenly lightning.

Finally, deep within the thunderclouds, they saw a phantom gate of light.

This illusory gate of light was extremely well hidden, concealed deep within the void, amidst thunderclouds.

Even a Taoist cultivator at the tenth realm cannot detect the existence of the light gate using their divine sense.

Only when you get really close can you observe it with the naked eye.

The moment they saw the portal, both Fang Heng and Shang Hongye's eyes lit up with joy and excitement.

Lei Yuan!

This is the place where the Five Thunder Gods passed away!
The founding patriarch of the Shenxiao Sect also received the inheritance of Yang Wulei in the Thunder Abyss, which led to the existence of the Shenxiao Sect today.

"Come on, let's go in!"

Fang Heng let out a soft shout, transformed into a beam of light, and rushed towards the light gate.

The light suddenly stopped less than ten feet away from the portal, and then the person took out the Thunder Abyss Suppressing Evil Token.

Suddenly, as if sensing the presence of the Thunder Abyss Suppressing Evil Token, two beams of five-colored light shot out from within the gate of light.

Fang Heng and Shang Hongye did not resist, letting the five-colored light fall on them.

As the five-colored light descended, Fang Heng felt a slight loss of weight.

Immediately afterwards, the scenery before my eyes changed completely.

The surrounding area was no longer filled with thunderous clouds.

Instead, beneath their feet lay a bottomless abyss stretching out before them.

Lei Yuan!

This is Lei Yuan!
As the name suggests, there really is a bottomless abyss within Thunder Abyss.

Upon entering Thunder Abyss, Fang Heng immediately became acutely aware of the situation.

Within the void of Lei Yuan, there was only spiritual energy of the lightning attribute.

Other types of spiritual energy were completely undetectable.

"How domineering Lei Yuan is!"

"What an overbearing Five Thunder Heavenly Venerable."

A look of surprise appeared on Fang Heng's face. This was the first time he had ever experienced the existence of only one type of spiritual energy in the void.

In a place like Thunder Abyss, a cultivator's strength will be greatly enhanced.

As for the other cultivators, they will be suppressed.

Originally possessing full strength, being able to unleash even half of it in the Thunder Abyss would be a blessing.

Shang Hongye, standing to the side, was even more pathetic than Fang Heng.

She specializes in military arts, not lightning arts, so the environment in the Thunder Abyss is particularly unpleasant for her.

If it weren't for the Five Thunder Celestial Venerable's Thunder Beast Battle Technique, which is quite profound in military strategy, Shang Hongye wouldn't have personally come to Thunder Abyss.

Shang Hongye nodded slightly, looking at the unfathomable Lei Yuan before her, and said in a deep voice:

"According to the explorations of our predecessors, the Thunder Abyss before us is divided into nine layers, and is also known as the Nine-Layer Thunder Abyss."

"The deeper you go, the more powerful the lightning becomes in the Thunder Abyss."

"Legend has it that in the center of the Nine-fold Thunder Abyss, there is a Thunder Pool."

"This Thunder Pool is formed from the heart of the Five Thunder Celestial Venerable, and the inheritance of all the knowledge he has learned throughout his life is contained within the Thunder Pool."

After listening to Shang Hongye's introduction, Fang Heng realized that what Shang Hongye said was basically just hearsay.

"It's said that? Who started that?" Fang Heng asked curiously.

Because Lei Yuan is difficult to enter, although it is famous, the outside world has very limited understanding of it.

Those who have entered Thunder Abyss will not spread news about it casually; instead, they will cover their mouths and remain silent.

For example, the Shenxiao Sect.

As is widely known, the Shenxiao Sect's lineage originates from Lei Yuan.

However, the specifics of what happens inside Thunder Abyss are kept secret within the Divine Firmament Sect, known only to the sect leader, elders, and supreme elders who hold high positions.

"I learned it from fragments left by ancient military strategists," Shang Hongye said ambiguously.

These rumors were all told to her by Granny Tao.

Of course, Granny Tao had only heard about it and had never actually entered the Thunder Abyss.

"Let's go downstairs," Shang Hongye said to Fang Heng.

Just as the two were about to enter the first level of the Thunder Abyss, suddenly, the [Avoiding Misfortune and Seeking Good Fortune] destiny in Fang Heng's mind stirred.

The three hexagrams radiated golden light and appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness.

The Ninefold Thunder Abyss, a place of inheritance, is unpredictable and fraught with peril.

[Upper Divination: You will stop at the third level of the Thunder Abyss. Exploring southeastward will yield a superior opportunity. Auspicious!]

[Medium hexagram: Stopped at the eighth level of the Thunder Abyss. Exploring northwestward, an opportunity will be found, but a fierce battle is required. Medium!]

[Lower Divination: Heading towards the Ninth Thunder Abyss, you are trapped in a perilous situation, with a slim chance of survival. Ominous!]

Fang Heng's expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of anything amiss, as he carefully examined the contents of the divination.

The three hexagrams clearly told Fang Heng that there was an opportunity within the third and eighth Thunder Abyss levels.

In particular, the opportunity within the third Thunder Abyss was rated as a top-grade opportunity, so it must be something extraordinary.

On the contrary, the eighth level of the Thunder Abyss requires going through dangerous situations in order to obtain opportunities.

Judging from the evaluation of the hexagram, it is not as good as the third level of Thunder Abyss.

As for the ninth level of the Thunder Abyss, there is absolutely no chance of survival.

Although the core inheritance of the Five Thunder Celestial Venerable is located in the Ninth Thunder Abyss, it is clearly the most dangerous place in the entire secret realm.

With three hexagrams, even a fool could know how to choose.

Fang Heng remained calm and entered the Thunder Abyss with Shang Hongye.

The First Thunder Abyss!
The Second Thunder Abyss!
The Third Thunder Abyss!
Shang Hongye seemed to have a clear goal in mind, and continued downwards.

Upon entering the third level of the Thunder Abyss, Fang Heng suddenly stopped, pointed southeast, and said to Shang Hongye:
"Red Leaf, I feel something calling to me from the southeast."
