Liang Yi looked up at the sky, showing a bit of worry as he looked towards Grandpa Ju.

"Don't worry, since I've asked you to come, I naturally have a way," assured Grandpa Ju, rolling up his sleeves, his face brimming with confidence.

"On any normal occasion, no matter what I do, the Abyss would surely notice. But now, it has entered a deep slumber and sealed off most of its perception of the Abyss Continent. In such a case, it's naturally easier to handle!"

"That is true. So, what should I do?" Liang Yi pondered and consequently eased his mind.

"I'll use the Secret Technique to resonate with the Origin and forcibly tear open a gap in the seal to send you in. You just need to absorb it directly," explained Grandpa Ju, readying his fists while giving Liang Yi a solemn reminder.

"Also… take this wisp of breath with you. As long as the breath that shares a source with the Heavenly Dao Origin is inside, the seal won't be triggered."

Speaking thus, Grandpa Ju pressed a finger on his glabella and slowly drew out a slim golden thread from the depths of his Divine Soul, handing it to Liang Yi,

"You're actually quite reliable!" Liang Yi carefully took the golden thread that was light as fluff and meticulously stored it away, while taking the opportunity to thoroughly praise Grandpa Ju.

"Enough talk. Move quickly after you get in! I can't sustain this for too long," Grandpa Ju gave his final instructions with a subdued and calm expression.

After taking a deep breath, he raised his paw and slammed it down fiercely!

Thump—

It was as if a huge brass bell had been struck by a clapper, the dull sound spreading rapidly from the underside of Grandpa Ju's foot to the surrounding world.

Wherever the bell's sound traveled, the blizzard stopped in its tracks, and then in the blink of an eye, it was scattered into nothingness by the mighty force!

The snow that had covered this mountain for countless years also dissipated with this single dull thud, revealing the true face of the peak that had not been seen for who knows how many years!

A blood-red pattern composed of a complicated and ancient yet chaotic and sinister Array spread out from under Liang Yi's feet, enveloping the entire mountaintop!

Far away, Wu Nue, who was secretly observing the situation with his minions, shuddered violently upon hearing the bell sound, with all the hairs on his body standing on end. His Wolf Demon followers behind him exhibited the same reaction, their faces showing terror as they looked towards the source of the dull sound.

"Let's fall back a bit, make a strategic retreat, this place doesn't seem too safe," Wu Nue quickly came to his senses and hastily signaled his minions to retreat, unclear about what the disciple of the old messenger had done to trigger such a supernatural phenomenon.

But judging from the Sword Intent contained within the bell sound, it was indeed the messenger's Sword Intent, there was no mistake about it.

Considering himself to be careful and cautious, Wu Nue retreated thousands of miles, and only after feeling safe did he heave a sigh of relief, planning to wait there for Liang Yi's return.

Crack crack ——

Meanwhile, at the top of the sword-shaped mountain peak, a sound like that of cracking glass resonated, and Grandpa Ju clenched his teeth, his eyes bloodshot, his face looking somewhat fierce.

The claws he had pressed on the ground were broken at the fingertips, continuously oozing blood that seeped into the seal, communicating with the Heavenly Dao Origin through the power of his Essence Blood.

After a tumultuous shake like the earth moving and mountains shaking, the complex and sinister yet impregnable Array was finally breached with a small opening.

Grandpa Ju's face lit up with joy, and he hastily called out to Liang Yi:

"It's open, get in quick!"

"Hang in there! If you can't hold on, message me, and I'll come back right away!" Liang Yi was also aware of the urgency of the situation, not making a fuss, and after suspending a precious Spirit Pill above Grandpa Ju's head to ease his injuries, he called out in a low voice.

Immediately after, he transformed into a burst of sword light and plunged into the crack, disappearing from sight!
