Chapter 561: Chapter 339 Ancient Gate

“…”

Mr. Luo struggled to speak for a long time.

Su Qi, however, didn’t pay attention to Mr. Luo’s frozen soul.

He was taking in his surroundings.

Now that he had entered a range he had never been in before, things were bound to be different.

Moreover,

Su Qi could feel the World Tree Withered Leaf stuck to his body getting quite hot.

This indicated that he was getting closer to the place it was leading him to.

“It’s just that this world…”

Su Qi paused, “is a bit strange… In the Sky Dome, one can see a multitude of chains like starlight coming from all directions, as if they are shackling this world with iron chains.”

“And this place.”

Su Qi slowly stretched out his hand and scooped up a handful of earth: “It’s even more dead and stagnant.”

“And from the beginning, I’ve noticed there’s no wind, no movement of air, no sound of streams, as if time has stood still.”

“What do you think, Brother Luo?”

Mr. Luo fumbled with being called ‘Brother Luo.’

He was currently in a very complicated mood, his thoughts had only just begun to recover from the crash, but they were still on the verge of breaking down.

The Abyss Power that he had guarded against so vigilantly, and the Immortal Path that he had protected meticulously over numerous years, the chosen Daozi, turned out to be the leader of these Abyss believers.

But.

Mr. Luo quickly regained his composure because he realized, no matter what… even if he could be mistaken, the Immortal Path Stele wouldn’t be.

The Immortal Path would never choose someone whose Cultivation Heart leans toward the Abyss! After all, the destruction of the entire Immortal Path Dimension came from the Abyss; they even represented the Order that saves all lives!

However, he was now certain.

Everything he had just witnessed was not false.

Whether it was the Abyss believers at this moment or the Totem on Su Qi’s arm.

Each one of them was elite among the elite, not something ordinary believers could compare to.

And that Totem, in particular, was emitting an even more evil aura than the other gathered believers!

So.

Mr. Luo very much needed an explanation, if even the Immortal Path Stele was wrong, then… he would have blown up with Abyss Power…

No.

Blown up with what.

He had sworn an oath to the Immortal Path, vowing to protect the Daozi to the death, even if he had been deceived, he still had no way out.

Mr. Luo’s heart trembled, his expression serious, he took a deep breath and said with an extremely solemn tone:

“What on earth is going on, Daozi?”

“Why have you become a member of the Abyss Church?”

Listening to Mr. Luo’s tone, Su Qi replied with a faint smile, “Brother Luo, don’t take such a stern tone, as if you’re about to explode at me.”

“Don’t worry about it.”

“Although, as you’ve seen, I am now a Venerable of the Abyss believers, possessing an Abyss Totem, with a bunch of Abyss believers as my underlings, you have to believe that I am a good person.”

Not a bit believable!!

Mr. Luo’s eyes widened, these points were already his taboo, and while he didn’t know what exactly the title ‘Venerable’ entailed, it was clearly a high-ranking title within the Abyss!

How could he possibly be at ease!

“Alright, alright,” Su Qi said, sensing Mr. Luo’s fluctuating emotions: “I’ll stop teasing you.”

“In fact, I’m on an undercover mission. During the time you were asleep, I successfully infiltrated their ranks and became the captain of an Abyss Team.”

Mr. Luo was somewhat bewildered: “But, the Totem on your body…”

“This is the power of the Immortal Path,” Su Qi said, blatantly lying: “Its mysteries are endless, hiding me within them.”

“This Totem, though carved on my arm, is actually isolated from me.”

The earlier statement was nonsense, since the right to interpret the power of the Immortal Path currently lay with him, even the once-Demigod Mr. Luo had not fathomed it.

The latter statement was true.

Initially, the Totem was merely a tattoo formed by the Spiritual Eyes, but as time went on… it became increasingly solid and continued to grow stronger, although Su Qi, of course, remained unaffected by it.

“Is that so,”

Mr. Luo was taken aback.

With Su Qi’s deliberate display, he also saw… indeed, the Abyss Totem was not like the others, rooted into the body, infiltrating the soul.

“So, it’s the power… of the Immortal Path…” he murmured:

“If that’s the case, then it makes sense. The secrets of the Immortal Path are only comprehended by Saints.”

Brother Luo.

True to character.

He had already accepted it.

If it were Old Huang, not only would he not believe it, but he’d also be looking for a chance to run away at any moment.

After all these years, Mr. Luo is still a big, honest man.

But that’s good.

The Hustlers Sect needs someone cunning and sinister; Old Huang is sufficient for the job.

It also needs someone with a strong sense of principle, so the moral baseline of members of The Hustlers doesn’t sink too low.

“However…” Mr. Luo still frowned: “Although you, Daozi, can now wield the power of the Immortal Path, choosing to infiltrate the Abyss Church is too dangerous.”

Su Qi spread his hands: “You have to seek fortune amidst danger.”

“Moreover, the Immortal Path and the Present World are inherently on the same side, with all Life caught in this maelstrom. Everything that happens here will determine the future direction of the Present World and the Abyss.”

“As a Daozi, I naturally have to step forward, after all, I have my heart set on the common people.”

Mr. Luo was somewhat moved: “Daozi, your righteousness!”

Su Qi modestly said: “Righteousness? That’s saying too much, just a bit of justice.”

In front of Mr. Luo, Su Qi decided to maintain his image, fearing that Mr. Luo wouldn’t accept what he had to do.

After all.

There were still significant tasks, such as confronting the Evil God, that would require Mr. Luo’s involvement.

He also wondered if Old Huang had also come to join them. If… he had,

those fighting against the Evil God would have one more ally.
