Gathering of Fellow Disciples, Snack Package

Mount Xuanwu at the Four Symbols Chasm.

After a long period of recuperation, the Spirit Crane's injuries had finally healed.

Right now, it was carrying Gu Qianqian as they soared through the sky above the White Tiger Abyss.

Crossing over the White Tiger Abyss, the Spirit Crane quickly brought Qianqian to the sky above the Jade Pool of Mount Jade.

At this moment, the yin and yang poles of the Jade Pool had merged into one.

Even the yin-yang fish of the Jade Pool had formed a complete circle.

The settlement of the Ancient Clan of Mount Jade was now completely deserted.

When Qianqian returned to the stone house where she had lived for over a decade, a profound sense that things remained but people had changed welled up in her heart.

Now, her clansmen were gone, and her grandmother had left as well.

She would never see Qilin or her master again.

She took a harmonica out of her pocket and placed it to her lips.

A sorrowful melody echoed through the empty cave.

As the sound waves spread, Qianqian saw the snacks she hadn't finished eating.

And the musical instrument her master had given her.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

She packed all the snacks into a travel bag.

These travel bags were the ones Chen Feng had used every time he brought snacks into the Kunlun Mountains.

Carrying this bag of snacks, Qianqian climbed back onto the Spirit Crane's back.

They flew toward the White Tiger Abyss.

Somewhere in the Kunlun Mountains, Jin Youxi and the others, who had been searching for days, witnessed various wonders of Kunlun along the way.

Prehistoric dinosaurs, mammoths, and saber-toothed tigers—they had it all.

They even saw a giant python tens of meters long.

After a month, they finally found the legendary Four Symbols Chasm.

Even though they had never been here before.

But Chen Feng had previously exposed the truth about the fake dragon vein.

Seeing those eight large characters carved into the cliff face, they knew they had found the right place.

Grandpa Jin never expected that in his lifetime, he would be able to see the legendary land of Great Xia with his own eyes.

"Jade Pool of Mount Jade, Ancestral Vein of Kunlun."

"Zhang Bowen used these eight words to trap and kill outsiders for three hundred years!"

He couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Even now, the outer perimeter of the Four Symbols Chasm was littered with countless skeletal remains.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Bing couldn't help but think to himself.

His stunningly brilliant master had once stood in this very place—one man holding the pass against ten thousand.

With his own strength, he had trapped hundreds of thousands of foreign enemies to their deaths in the Kunlun Mountains.

And then was revered by his Great Xia compatriots as a national hero.

Liu Weiwei and Jin Youxi also imagined their master fighting bloody battles in this place piled high with bones.

The four passed through the narrow sky-slit passage of the Four Symbols Chasm, the path almost completely paved with bones.

Entering the interior of the Four Symbols Chasm, the four began searching for the location of the White Tiger Abyss.

Crossing a steep mountain peak that pierced the clouds, the four saw a freezing pool.

Many ice sculptures stood within it.

There were humans and beasts in various postures.

Liu Weiwei immediately said,

"This should be the Vermilion Bird Pool that Master mentioned before."

"Master once said that past the Vermilion Bird Pool is the White Tiger Abyss."

"But the Vermilion Bird Pool is very dangerous, and the White Tiger Abyss is just as dangerous."

Grandpa Jin approached and shattered a humanoid ice sculpture near the shore with a slap.

Instantly, the humanoid ice sculpture broke into pieces.

However, the red flesh within the fragments, the cross-sections of broken bones, and the pieces of internal organs all proved the danger of this freezing pool.

The four decided to detour around it.

It just required crossing a mountain, which would be a bit troublesome.

Just as they reached the summit, Jin Youxi suddenly saw a large green bird flying across the distant sky.

On the back of the large bird sat a young girl.

...

The Spirit Crane flew to the sky above the White Tiger Abyss.

Qianqian threw the travel bag filled with snacks into the White Tiger Abyss.

"Master, Qilin, I will come to visit you often in the future."

The Spirit Crane looked toward a distant mountain peak, where four humans were heading in the direction of the White Tiger Abyss.

And they were about to enter the five-hundred-meter radius of the White Tiger Abyss.

The Spirit Crane confirmed that these four people were not members of the Ancient Clan.

At the very least, based on their clothing and appearance, they were definitely not from the Ancient Clan.

"Qianqian, there are a few outsiders who are about to step into the forbidden grounds of the White Tiger Abyss."

Gu Qianqian was startled.

She hurriedly said,

"Let's hurry over and warn them."

Soon, Jin Youxi and the other three saw the person and the bird flying toward them.

From far away, they heard a crisp, young girl's voice.

"Don't go any further!"

"Stop right there!"

Although Jin Youxi's group didn't know what was going on, they still stopped immediately.

Standing high on the mountain peak, they saw a massive rift stretching for several kilometers across the land below.

The rift was pitch-black and bottomless.

They knew that rift had to be the White Tiger Abyss.

The closer they got, the more their hearts palpitated.

But for some unknown reason, the closer they got, the more their bodies involuntarily wanted to move forward.

Fortunately, they could still control it.

The Spirit Crane landed in front of the four with Gu Qianqian.

Relying on its acute intuition as a spirit beast, it determined the four people's vitality and cultivation levels at a glance.

"Two top-tier martial artists, one martial master, and one martial supreme."

"These four pose no danger to us."

To the Spirit Crane, if these people harbored ill intentions, it could easily kill them.

After Qianqian blew her harmonica to sense their positions and appearances, she said to Jin Youxi's group of four:

"Ahead is a forbidden area."

"Once you get within five hundred meters, your vitality will be drained dry, and you will be sucked into the abyss."

At this moment, however, Jin Youxi and Liu Weiwei looked at the Spirit Crane and Gu Qianqian, blurting out excitedly:

"You must be our junior martial sister, Gu Qianqian!"

"And that is the talking Spirit Crane!"

Both Gu Qianqian and the Spirit Crane were a bit surprised.

Jin Youxi hurriedly added,

"I am your senior martial sister."

"I even bought dolls and snacks for you!"

Liu Weiwei hastily chimed in,

"The three of us are also Chen Feng's disciples."

Gu Qianqian suddenly realized the truth.

So these three were her senior sisters and junior brother whom she had never met.

She had only heard her master mention them before.

She had originally planned to go out into the world and look for these senior sisters right after leaving Kunlun.

She hadn't expected them to find their way in on their own.

After exchanging a few words, Jin Youxi couldn't help but ask,

"Master... did he really fall into this White Tiger Abyss?"

Jin Youxi's voice was trembling a little.

She desperately wanted to know the answer.

But she was also afraid it wouldn't be the answer she wanted.

Qianqian's rare moment of excitement instantly turned back to melancholy.

...

Inside the White Tiger Abyss.

"I can't do this anymore, I can't! I can't climb any further!"

"I feel like my arms are going to break!"

Chen Feng was forced to stop.

The abnormal gravity of the White Tiger Abyss made him feel as if he were rock climbing while carrying a mountain on his back.

Fortunately, his vitality could not be stripped away; otherwise, even with the physical enhancements from Qilin, if he didn't fall to his death in the White Tiger Abyss, he would ultimately just be left lying on the ground without even the strength to stand up.

Yin Hu mocked,

"Where did all those bold words and high spirits go?"

"Showing your true colors now, aren't you!"

"Just a dog of a man who only knows how to run his mouth."

Chen Feng was just about to retort.

When he saw Yin Hu suddenly widen his eyes, staring upwards.

"Damn it! A big one is falling."

"It's all your fault, I missed out on such a huge piece of food."

Chen Feng also looked up.

He saw a black dot plummeting rapidly.

As the black dot gradually grew larger, Yin Hu furrowed his brow.

"What is this thing? A rock?"

Chen Feng, however, exclaimed in surprise:

"Isn't this the travel bag I used to pack snacks for Qianqian?"

Seeing that the bag hadn't caught fire from the air friction, he immediately praised it:

"As expected of a Goudong self-operated product."

"It really is made of fireproof fiber!"

Chen Feng said to Yin Hu:

"Keep an eye on me so I don't fall."

Then, under Yin Hu's bewildered gaze.

He forcefully thrust his left hand deep into the stone wall.

Channeling the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms at the realm of Man and Nature as One, he struck upwards into the sky with his right hand.

The palm energy transformed into the phantom of a golden dragon, roaring as it shot out.

Over a dozen golden dragons instantly wrapped around the rapidly plummeting travel bag.

Chen Feng continuously swung his palms, unleashing phantom golden dragons one after another.

As the palm wind swirled, it swept the travel bag right back to him.
