Fairy, I am truly a virtuous gentleman!

Aside from Qiao Shuang, the other two were relatively unknown faces and didn't attract much attention. However, when they turned their attention to the last person, they were all surprised, causing a stir.

A tall, slender young man in white robes with red lips and white teeth was surrounded by three people behind him.

He was handsome, with eyes like stars, wearing cloud-patterned boots, and a jade ring around his waist. He had an extraordinary bearing and a refined and elegant appearance.

Many female cultivators couldn't help but feel a stirring in their hearts upon seeing him, their gazes involuntarily drawn to him.

"Ning Yuan? It really is this boy!"

"I never expected that after having heard so much about the reputation of this son of the Grand Preceptor of the Great Li Kingdom, and only catching a glimpse of him at the Grand Gathering of Myriad Laws, I would see him again here..."

"What's going on? Could it be that he's also going into the Crimson Abyss?"

"The other three are fine, but Ning Yuan's aura is only at the Qi Refining stage. Why bother coming to Crimson Abyss to take the risk?"

Ignoring the chaotic noises, Ning Yuan's gaze swept around the square, where he spotted many familiar faces from the Grand Gathering of Myriad Laws.

For example, the group from the Taiyi Sword Sect.

Previously, another Golden Core leader of the Taiyi Sword Sect was injured by Qiao Shuang and was still recuperating in Luodu. Therefore, the person leading the team at this moment is still the seemingly rough but meticulous Lei Yunzi.

Upon seeing Ning Yuan looking at him, Lei Yunzi awkwardly looked away.

After Chu Lingci and Zhu Qixian returned, they remained silent about what had happened at Ning Yuan's residence.

Although Lei Yunzi is Chu Lingci's nominal senior uncle, everyone knows that as soon as he returns to the sect, a senior elder will take him as a disciple, and it will be hard to say who will be of higher seniority at that time.

Although Zhu Qixian lacked connections and background, she was still a true disciple of the sect, so it was difficult to force her. After all, she had risked her life to rescue her junior sister Chu Lingci, making her a meritorious figure.

but……

Why do they all say that Ning Yuan is a true gentleman?

The two women gave very consistent accounts, saying that Ning Yuan had not done anything improper to them, but had simply talked all night, cleared up the misunderstanding, and then restored their freedom.

Even a three-year-old would think there's something fishy going on in this.

But since the two women had returned safely and Lei Yunzi had confirmed that they were not bound by any restrictions, he had no choice but to let the matter rest and prepare to return to the sect to report and let the higher-ups make a judgment.

The grand gathering of all laws is the most important thing right now.

Lei Yunzi never expected that Ning Yuan would also appear on this Great Luo Cloud Ship.

For a moment, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

This grand gathering of myriad laws not only showcased the power of Daoist Yu Shu, but the disciples of the Taiyi Sword Sect also performed exceptionally well. Including Chu Lingci and Zhu Qixian, a total of seven true disciples of the Sword Sect successfully entered the top fifty of the Hidden Dragon Ranking in the competition, thus obtaining a spot to enter the Crimson Abyss.

Given the foundation and resources of the Taiyi Sword Sect disciples, it was almost a certainty that these seven people would condense their Golden Cores, which was truly remarkable.

Chu Lingci and Zhu Qixian were among the seven people in the group.

The former was still dressed in pristine white robes, cold and aloof, with a serene and distant expression, unmoved even upon seeing Ning Yuan.

The latter, on the contrary, wore a green dress with intricate embroidery on the hem. Her stunning figure was incredibly eye-catching. Upon noticing the young man, she immediately showed surprise and winked secretly, displaying a pitiful yet beautiful expression that was also somewhat ingratiating.

Ning Yuan put on a smile and looked straight ahead.

"Greetings, Master Xu Yuan. I am late, please forgive me."

Master Xu Yuan nodded and said no more.

Although Ning Yuan is Ning Muxian's son, Xu Yuan Zhenren now represents Ji Changhong and the Ji royal family behind him, so he cannot be too disrespectful.

Master Xu Yuan flicked his finger, and four more magic contracts transformed into golden light and flew out, landing in the hands of Ning Yuan, Qiao Shuang, and the others.

"Now that everyone has arrived and the legal agreement has been established, let's get down to business."

Master Xu Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "You are all cultivators who have achieved some success in your cultivation, so you should all have heard of the Underworld Abyss, right?"

As soon as the question was asked, someone immediately replied, "That's natural. The ancient Heavenly Court unified the universe and connected all the heavens with its great power, creating the Six Paths of Reincarnation. As long as a being in this universe dies, its soul will fall into the Abyss of the Underworld and be collected and governed by the Underworld, then sent into reincarnation. This greatly increased the cycle of heaven and earth, making the civilizations of all heavens more prosperous..."

As the man spoke, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he muttered to himself, "Crimson Abyss... Could it be that this Crimson Abyss is related to the Underworld Abyss?"

Upon hearing this, many people's expressions brightened.

The so-called underworld is not as simple as being located deep beneath the heavens and earth.

Once upon a time, every realm in the universe had its corresponding underworld, a different dimension naturally derived from the Dao of Heaven, a place where the souls of all living beings were annihilated.

It was a state of chaos and obscurity, with no clear distinction between above and below.

Only those with great supernatural powers can see even the slightest bit of it.

However, the ancient Heavenly Court commanded all the true saints of the heavens to connect the realms of reincarnation with boundless magical power. In accordance with the laws of the Great Dao, they spent countless years and energy to cut through the void and merge into a boundless realm, which is the Netherworld.

Theoretically speaking, the formation of the Underworld was a major trend in the evolution of the universe, and the Heavenly Court merely accelerated this process.

Even so, the power of the ancient Heavenly Court was still astonishing and unimaginable.

As the foundation of the six realms of reincarnation, the vast and boundless Abyss naturally contains countless lost secrets.

Some of them even offer the chance to become an immortal!

Master Xu Yuan nodded, but this was a cold shower for everyone.

"After the Heavenly Court was shattered and the Underworld collapsed, and the immortals went about their lives in seclusion, the Underworld fell into chaos."

In this realm, vengeful spirits reign supreme, and evil spirits abound, with darkness and terror frequently arising. Therefore, to prevent chaos in the mortal world, powerful figures from various sects and holy lands across the heavens have taken action to seal off all the passages between realms, leaving few unsealed.

Although the Crimson Abyss has a unique geographical location, it is not directly connected to the Nether Abyss.

This statement is true, but everyone knows that the major immortal sects did not seal the passage for the sake of the safety of the people.

The so-called sealing is actually just a means of control.

As is widely known, the Zhouyin Heavenly Palace, one of the sacred cultivation grounds of the Great Xuantian, one of the Eight Great Immortal Families and one of the Four Great Demonic Paths, has a distinct aura of the Netherworld when its true disciples walk in the outside world.

They had never participated in the Grand Assembly of All Laws.

At this moment, Master Xu Yuan changed the subject again, "However, there is a unique opportunity in the Crimson Abyss, which is the Heavenly Soul Spring."

Several figures who had just lost interest instantly became enthusiastic.

"Heavenly Soul Spring? Reputed to be one of the seven great divine waters of the universe, a sub-water of Heavenly One Water?"

"No wonder it's said to be able to help one condense a high-grade golden core. If there were enough of this, even forming a first-grade golden core wouldn't be a pipe dream!"

As a divine object of nature, the Heavenly Water has an exceptionally wide range of uses and its power is immense and unpredictable.

The effects of the Heavenly Soul Spring are relatively limited.

One of the most important benefits is that it can increase the success rate and quality of a cultivator's core formation during the core formation process!
