Chapter 549: and ===GLOSSARY=== sections

「Yuan Yao, do you know something? 」 Yu Jing stared at the person before her, her tone grave as she asked in a low voice.

Yuan Yao had no time to explain to her; instead, she lifted her head and stared at the sky, which was gradually being completely covered by blood-red, her heart sinking to the bottom of a valley.

She turned her head to look at the people, demons, and monsters present, amplifying her voice with spiritual power and said: "Everyone, we cannot be trapped here for a hundred years! Therefore we need to temporarily join forces to prevent the Abyss from being sealed!"

Quan Li narrowed her eyes suddenly, remained silent for two seconds, then asked: "How to close it?"

Meanwhile, the Fourth Prince of the Monster Clan, Xie Xu, stared deeply in Yuan Yao's direction and said: "We can join forces."

Nobody wants to be trapped in the Abyss for a hundred years!

Meanwhile, the human elites almost all looked toward Yu Jing, and Yu Jing's expression turned solemn; in the end she also nodded silently.

Thus, the three teams from different races temporarily formed an alliance.

The ground continued to transmit violent tremors, shaking them so they could barely keep their footing.

Xie Xu asked: "What is the method to prevent the Abyss from being sealed?"

Ying Wuji said in a low voice: "Defeat the Abyss Beast Lord."

"You mean, let us go together to deal with the Abyss Beast Lord?!" Xie Xu, upon hearing this, felt somewhat ridiculous, yet he couldn't laugh.

Because he was fully aware, this should be the only way.

"What are we waiting for?!" Quan Li raised the bone blade that could be lifted, and said coldly.

Having said that, she took the lead, guiding the remaining monster elites to rush toward the location of the Abyss Beast Lord.

Seeing this, Yuan Yao and Yu Jing exchanged a glance.

"Let's go!"

While rushing toward the Abyss Beast Lord's location, Yu Jing tried as much as possible to get in touch with Ying Wuhuan and Lu Xiang.

But no news ever came.

She could only contact the other human elites.

The other human elites quickly replied to the message: "Deputy Leader Yu, we have scattered from the Leader Ying and Deputy Leader Lu, and now we can't find them either. Moreover, why has the Abyss produced such a great tremor? We discovered that the Abyss beasts inside are all rushing toward the core region, seemingly… because of the Abyss Beast Lord……"

"Deputy Leader Yu, what should we do now?"

The human elites couldn't get in touch with Ying Wuhuan and Lu Xiang, so they could only act according to Yu Jing's commands.

After hearing their reply, Yu Jing already felt a bad premonition in her heart.

Ying Wuhuan, Lu Xiang…

Why did they suddenly disappear?

Could it be that the Abyss's premature closure is related to them?

But how could they possess such formidable power to influence the Abyss's closing or opening?

This sudden situation completely caught her off guard.

Yu Jing's mood grew heavy, and the burden on her shoulders became ever heavier.

She knew that each of her decisions affected the lives of dozens of elites.

Yu Jing took a deep breath, and after pondering, she still sent a message urging them to rush to the core area, and also informed them of the 'Abyss Beast Lord awakening,' 'the Abyss is about to close,' and 'the three races must join forces to fight the Abyss Beast Lord.'

At the same time, there were several monster elite teams and several demon elite teams inside the Abyss.

They also sensed something wrong with the Abyss and quickly rushed toward the core region.

At this moment, Yuan Yao transmitted anxiously to Ying Wuji: "Lu Xiangxiang's entry into the Abyss this time is not to obtain the Abyss Beast Lord's realm core, but to trap us all here!"

Ying Wuji also didn't expect Lu Xiangxiang to give up seizing the realm core; his mood was extraordinarily complex, and he replied via transmission: "Yao Yao, we've been turned against by her."

Lu Xiangxiang already knew he also possessed memories of his previous life, so she certainly understood they would certainly stop her from obtaining the realm core from the Abyss Beast Lord; thus she simply went all out, causing the Abyss Beast Lord to awaken early, and used some method to make the Abyss close prematurely.

In this way, they could be trapped in the Abyss for a hundred years.

And during the hundred years they are trapped, if she and Xu Yanzi employ some nefarious scheme, exterminating the Carefree Sect up and down as well as… killing the master……

Just thinking of this, Ying Wuji felt a faint pain in his chest, as if he could barely breathe.

Could it be that everything is destined to repeat itself?

"Youngest Senior Brother, we can all definitely leave the Abyss safely!" Yuan Yao's voice came through.

Ying Wuji's whole body shuddered, then he turned his head, just happening to meet Yuan Yao's determined eyes.

In an instant, all of Ying Wuji's negative emotions deep within vanished.

He cannot feel pessimistic just because he failed too many times in his previous life.

Ying Wuji solemnly nodded toward her.

And Qian Yunzhou's eyes flickered with a faint gloomy light; beneath his mask, the corners of his mouth curled with a hint of coldness, and he silently muttered three words in his heart: Lu Xiangxiang.

Soon they reached the edge of the "Abyss Line" cliff.

Opposite them lay the core region of the Abyss, which is also where the Abyss Beast Lord resides.

At this moment, the demon elite teams led by the Second Prince Quan Xiu and the Third Prince Quan Fan of the demon race have arrived; besides them, there are three monster elite teams and two human elite teams that have rushed over hastily.

The human elites immediately joined forces with Yu Jing and the others.

And upon seeing the eleven black-clad individuals beside Yu Jing, they felt a bit surprised, then curiosity and doubt arose.

Yu Jing did not explain the identities of Yuan Yao and her companions to them; instead, after confirming the numbers, she asked them again about the whereabouts of Ying Wuhuan and Lu Xiangxiang.

But they all shook their heads.

Suddenly, Yuan Yao's voice echoed throughout the area: "Everyone, the only way now to prevent the Abyss from being sealed is to defeat the Abyss Beast Lord! We ought to join forces and cooperate, together facing the Abyss Beast Lord."

The elites of the three races all turned their voices toward Yuan Yao's direction; in their view, she was merely a mysterious person cloaked in a black robe and wearing a mask.

Most of the elites showed looks of doubt and contempt.

Until Quan Li's voice rang out, only then did many elites reveal expressions of astonishment.

"We demons choose to temporarily join forces."

Quan Xiu and Quan Fan's expressions both sank; before they could speak, Quan Li gave them a cold glance.

"Could it be that you want to be trapped here for a hundred years?"

"Upon hearing this, Quan Fan could only glare hatefully at Yuan Yao's group, who had previously trapped him."

"Quan Fan had also clashed with Yuan Yao's group before, gaining nothing, and naturally he loathed them deeply."

"On the Demon Clan's side, their Young Imperial Prince Xie Ang, however, showed a hesitant expression, saying: 'Facing the Upper Realm Abyssal Beast Lord, wouldn't we then have only a dead end? If the Abyss is sealed, we can still seek other ways to open it; there's no need to confront the Upper Realm Abyssal Beast Lord head-on.'"

"After a pause, he continued: 'Furthermore, the worst outcome of the Abyss being sealed isn't just us being trapped in the Abyss for a hundred years?'"

"Hearing this, the many Heavenly Pride showed varied expressions."

"Obviously, some of them agreed with this, while others did not."
