Nine Regions Sword Emperor

Ancient battlefield.

Near the End of the Abyss.

Chu Fengmian's escape light slowly came to a stop.

In this ancient battlefield filled with countless dangers.

Chu Fengmian was actually more familiar with the area around the End of the Abyss.

Therefore, after escaping from the Shadow God, Chu Fengmian also used his escape technique to return to the vicinity of the End Abyss.

Chu Fengmian was able to reach the Abyss of Ending smoothly because Yao Daosheng helped and reminded him, helping him avoid many dangerous places.

Yao Daosheng explored the ancient battlefield for a long time, and thus figured out many of the dangerous places in the ancient battlefield.

However, Chu Fengmian knew nothing about the Ancient Battlefield, and this was his first time entering it.

Arriving at the Abyss of Ending was only possible because of the resonance of the power of the Tower of Destiny, coupled with the assistance of the Radiant Blade Saint.

Although Chu Fengmian's current strength has surpassed that of Yaodao Sheng, the Ancient Battlefield is fraught with danger, and even Chu Fengmian dares not wander around recklessly.

In comparison, Chu Fengmian was more familiar with the Abyss of Ending, which he had visited before, which is why he chose to return there.

Chu Fengmian did not enter the Abyss of Ending, but stood at its edge, his gaze fixed on the enormous Abyss of Ending.

Although Chu Fengmian had entered the Abyss of Ending before, he had not encountered any danger from the Abyss of Ending.

The dangers he encountered were all traps set by Shadow City's operational plans.

However, Chu Fengmian dared not underestimate the Abyss of Ending. The names of the three dead zones did not appear out of nowhere. It was only possible that the area Chu Fengmian had visited had already been cleared away by Shadow City, so there was no danger.

Chu Fengmian dared not venture into other parts of the End Abyss, after all, the End Abyss was one of the three dead zones.

"The power of the Tower of Destiny has stabilized."

Chu Fengmian sat cross-legged in the void, sensing the changes in the power within his body.

When Chu Fengmian killed Qingying, he found the two Heavenly Fate Tower Beads in Qingying's empty ring. He devoured them without hesitation to enhance his strength and deal with the strongest people in Shadow City.

It was precisely because Chu Fengmian's strength had increased after absorbing two Heavenly Fate Tower Beads that he chose to fight the Shadow God in order to find out the Shadow God's background.

Although Chu Fengmian failed to kill the Shadow God, he unexpectedly forced out the existence behind the Shadow God, the man in the sky.

With just a glance, the endless pain, hatred, and killing intent caused Chu Fengmian's consciousness to tremble. This was a power that even Chu Fengmian could not imagine.

Chu Fengmian's current strength is at the very top, even among the strongest experts.

Before meeting the man in the sky, Chu Fengmian could not have imagined that with his current strength, there would be someone who could pose such a huge threat to him with just a glance.

It's even uncertain whether the man in the sky was actually the same person.

Although it was only a fleeting glimpse, Chu Fengmian could not discern any trace of a human martial artist on the man in the sky; he seemed to be an extremely special being.

The feeling it gave Chu Fengmian was more like that of an indescribable mother.

"Who exactly was that man in the sky? Was he the Shadow God?"

Chu Fengmian kept thinking about what he saw of the man in the sky.

The man in the sky was definitely connected to the Shadow God. His appearance was because Chu Fengmian had tried to kill the Shadow God, pushing him into a desperate situation, which led to the man's appearance.

Furthermore, after the appearance of that man in the sky, the Shadow God's strength also increased significantly. Therefore, that man in the sky must have a very deep relationship with the Shadow God, and he is very likely the real Shadow God.

However, his appearance was somewhat different from the power avatars of these summoned Shadow Gods.

At the same time, through those eyes, Chu Fengmian could only see endless pain, endless hatred, and killing intent; there was no other emotion.

It was as if all that remained of the man in the sky was this; he was the embodiment of painful killing intent.

If he is the Shadow God, then what is his relationship with Shadow City?
Chu Fengmian initially thought that the Shadow God was merely a being summoned by the martial arts of Shadow City, or more likely an existence born from martial arts. However, upon seeing the man in the sky, Chu Fengmian realized that his guess was completely wrong.

The Shadow God is very likely a person, an entity.

So what is the relationship between the Shadow God, Shadow City, and the mysterious Shadow City Lord?
According to the intelligence that Chu Fengmian collected from the Other Shore Era.

Shadow City was established by the Shadow City Lord, and there is no mention of this so-called Shadow God.

The existence of the Shadow God seems to have been deliberately hidden by Shadow City. Even the Six Pillars of Shadow City, who are high-ranking officials, are unaware of the Shadow God's existence.

The doubts in the eyes of the other Shadow City leaders after the Shadow God appeared clearly showed that they were unaware of the existence of the true Shadow God.

The fact that Shadow City deliberately concealed the existence of the Shadow God must involve some secrets.

and.

Although it was just a fleeting glimpse.

However, Chu Fengmian still saw the countless tentacles on the Shadow God's body that were binding him tightly, preventing the Shadow God from moving and forcing him to stand in the sky.

The appearance and power of those tentacles were exactly like the tentacles of the Mother of No Life.

The Mother of No Life bound the Shadow God tightly, preventing him from moving and confining him to the distant sky.

"Shadow City is a force established by those who crave the power of lifelessness and worship the Mother of Lifelessness. Their ultimate goal is to summon the Mother of Lifelessness and return to the Other Shore Era."

Chu Fengmian silently recited this in his heart.

This is Shadow City's ultimate plan.

This has always been Shadow City's aspiration.

Judging from what Chu Fengmian knew about the future of the Other Shore Era, the Shadow City plan should have succeeded.

However, while Shadow City was successful, it was probably not as successful as they had imagined.

Because the Other Shore Era that Chu Fengmian saw in later generations was just a wasteland, where almost all the martial artists were killed, and only a very few survived.

In the Other Shore Era, all forces between the Other Shores were ultimately destroyed in the Other Shore Cataclysm.

Even this Shadow City is the same.

In later generations.

Chu Fengmian found no records about Shadow City. If the purpose of Shadow City was to summon the Mother of No Life, ultimately rule the Other Shore Era, and obtain even greater power...

Therefore, it can be said that the Shadow City plan actually failed. (End of Chapter)
