Sanxian City!
Facing Donghai City across the sea, a thousand miles apart.
Sanxian City is located on Sanxian Island.
Sanxian Island is a large island, three hundred li long and two hundred li wide, covering an area of sixty thousand square kilometers. Compared to many giant islands, it is insignificant.
But in this area, it is the largest island.
Sanxian City is the only city on Sanxian Island, vast in area. Almost all the residents on the island live in Sanxian City.
The original intention for establishing Sanxian City was to guard the East Sea.
Guard what exactly?
It is not written in textbooks, and few people know the inside story.
At this moment!
The abyss erupted, seemingly revealing the mystery.
Sanxian City perhaps guarded the abyss.
After hundreds of years of guarding, the near-sea waters of the East Sea have been peaceful. Although there were occasional disturbances, they were within controllable limits.
After several hundred years of peace, Sanxian City seemed to have become lax.
The seal of the abyss had not been reinforced for several years. Perhaps they never imagined that the abyss would erupt at this moment.
The human race had just gone through two great wars, suffering heavy losses. Before they could recover and integrate the forces of various races, they were once again faced with a new crisis.
This undoubtedly caught the higher-ups off guard.
In the Battle of the East Sea, Lin Yu turned the tide, demonstrating the power of a demigod to the world, immediately deterring the surrounding races. The prestige of the human race even spread tens of thousands of miles away.
Everyone could see that the human race was about to prosper.
But who could have imagined?
The seal of Sanxian City had loosened!
The abyss broke free from its seal and reappeared in people's sight after more than two hundred years.
Some old fossils who had lived for over two hundred years recalled the scene from back then in the depths of their memories.
On an island in the sea, a huge abyss suddenly appeared, bottomless. Countless demonic creatures crawled out of the abyss, bloodthirsty and fearless of death.
They attacked any living beings they saw.
For a time, it made the surrounding races change their expressions drastically.
The various races fought against the dark creatures together, but no matter how many they killed, more dark creatures would appear.
They were inexhaustible, and no one knew what was at the bottom of the abyss or why there were so many dark creatures.
Some said the bottom of the abyss was another world.
Others said it was a devil's nest, and victory was impossible without killing the queen.
These were all guesses. They could not go down into the abyss, and all who did had died.
They could not be killed, they could not be extinguished.
Finally, the strong individuals of all races had to join forces to seal the abyss.
More than two hundred years later, the seal loosened, and the abyss reappeared in the world.
Lin Yu and Lin Fan sat on the back of a blue dragon and arrived above Sanxian City.
Looking down, they could see black pillars of smoke rising to the sky, connecting heaven and earth, a breathtaking sight.
Lin Fan marveled, "What kind of smoke is this? It can even devour people?"
He noticed that anyone touched by this smoke immediately turned into a skeleton, their flesh and blood disappearing.
Lin Yu shook his head and said, "This is not smoke, but extremely tiny insects. They were eaten by insects."
"Holy crap, these insects are quite formidable. I didn't even notice," Lin Fan exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Yu was secretly alarmed.
Lin Fan inherited twice his combat power. Excluding innate abilities, he was even stronger than him.
If he hadn't possessed soul vision, he too wouldn't have been able to discern the true nature of this smoke.
It could be imagined that apart from those with eye-related talents and people like him, even ninth-tier individuals wouldn't be able to see the essence of the smoke.
Lin Yu said, "Let's go down and inquire about the situation. I feel that Sanxian City hides many secrets."
The two of them rode the blue dragon and flew downwards.
As they approached the land, the people below immediately cried out in alarm.
They looked up at the magnificent blue dragon and thought it was a beast attack. However, when they clearly saw the people on its back, they quickly abandoned their intention to attack.
"It's Lin Yu and Lin Fan. When did they tame a dragon?"
"Even though it's a Western dragon, it's still a dragon. Its power seems to be ninth-tier as well."
"I wouldn't be surprised if they tamed a Kun."
"That's true. After all, it's Lin Yu. I find it natural for him to accomplish anything."
"Look, he's descending towards us."
Everyone retreated, clearing a large open space.
Boom!
Roar!
The blue dragon roared and landed on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Lin Yu and Lin Fan jumped down from the dragon's back. Lin Fan waved his hand, telling the blue dragon to find a place to rest.
He then followed Lin Yu towards a building in front.
This building was the temporary office of the human race.
As they pushed the door open, they heard several people arguing.
Fuyaozi's eyes revealed a blood-red flower. He stared at the countless black smokes outside the window.
"That black smoke is insects, don't go near it!"
The Charioteer said, "If it's insects, I want to tame them as pets."
Yan Jun said, "Stop messing around. The urgent task now is how to reseal the abyss."
The divine monk chanted a Buddhist phrase and said, "Yan Jun is right. We should repair the seal as soon as possible, otherwise, when more subterranean monsters appear, it will be too late."
The Charioteer pouted and said, "I don't think we need to seal it. We should send people in to check the situation. Otherwise, if we keep sealing it like this, the seal will eventually fail."
Fuyaozi also nodded and said, "Sealing is only a temporary solution, but we have no other choice!"
The Charioteer laughed and said, "Let Lin Yu go!"
Yan Jun retorted, "Lin Yu is the trump card and hope of our human race. We cannot take such a risky action."
Fuyaozi also said, "Yes, Lin Yu, who is only ninth-tier now, already possesses demigod strength. Once he becomes a demigod, our human race will return to the pinnacle of the world. Lin Yu is our hope, and he must not suffer any harm. Otherwise, we will all be sinners of our race and sinners of history."
"Then there's no solution. Moreover, in the Battle of Guixu, our most powerful formation master also died!" the Charioteer said helplessly.
They suffered too much in the Battle of Guixu.
A large number of formation masters, rune masters, and others perished on the battlefield.
The divine monk frowned and said, "Even if they were alive, they wouldn't be able to repair the seal. This requires the joint efforts of all races."
Fuyaozi asked, "What does the Elder say?"
Yan Jun replied, "The Elder has canceled the plan to conquer the Northern Undead race and is now leading elites from three hundred foreign races to Sanxian Island."
The Charioteer laughed, "The Elder is quite quick to react. But this abyss is not just a disaster for our race. The races that sealed the abyss with us back then must also come and help."
"Don't worry, they have already agreed to help. They are even more anxious than us," Yan Jun said with a smile.
"That's good! I haven't seen those races for decades. I wonder if those old guys are still alive?" the Charioteer sighed.
At this moment.
Knock, knock, knock!!!
The sound of knocking on the door.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and, upon seeing who it was, exclaimed with great joy:
"Lin Yu, you're here! Please come in quickly!"
