Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 450: Chapter 249: The Crimson Abyss is Opening Again!

Mad Saber Sect

”Senior Brother, have you heard? The Red Cloud Abyss is about to open again!”

A young disciple from the Mad Saber Sect said excitedly to the senior brother beside him.

”Hmm, this time our Mad Saber Sect will claim the top spot and show those so-called righteous sects how formidable we truly are!”

The senior brother’s eyes sparkled with ambition, his clenched fists crackling loudly.

Thousand Poison Sect

In the corner of the Thousand Poison Sect, several disciples were whispering among themselves.

”The elder mentioned that the Red Cloud Abyss contains many rare poisonous herbs and beasts. For our Thousand Poison Sect, it’s like a fish in water!”

One disciple’s eyes gleamed with poisonous light, and a sinister smile curled on his lips.

”Hmph, not only will we collect poisonous items this time, but we’ll also let those so-called righteous disciples taste the might of the Thousand Poison Sect!” Another disciple added, his voice cold and chilling.

Giant Sword Sect

The disciples of the Giant Sword Sect appeared more composed, though the anticipation in their eyes was hard to conceal.

”The Red Cloud Abyss opens once every century, surely harboring countless opportunities. Our Giant Sword Sect must seize this chance to elevate the strength of the sect to new heights!”

A Giant Sword Sect disciple said solemnly.

Haoyang Sect and Holy Pill Sect disciples were sparring and testing their skills, with some murmuring in private.

The disciples of Haoyang Sect and Holy Pill Sect focused more on the heavenly materials and treasure at the Dark Level or above within the secret realm.

”It’s said there may be the legendary Spiritual Yang Stone in the Red Cloud Abyss. That would provide immeasurable benefits for our Haoyang Sect’s cultivation!”

A Haoyang Sect disciple said, eyes filled with longing.

”Indeed, and those treasures at Dark Level or above—if we can acquire them—would greatly enhance the success rate of developing our Holy Pill Sect’s elixirs!”

A female Holy Pill Sect disciple responded, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Governor Mansion

The disciples of the Governor Mansion were more enigmatic and subdued, yet their ambition ran deep.

”The Governor has issued the order. This time, during the Red Cloud Abyss journey, we must not only gather resources but also closely monitor the movements of other factions, ensuring the interests of the Governor Mansion are maximized.” Sun Qinxuan whispered, his eyes flickering with a hint of cunning.

The Mu family, Qian family, Wu family, and Zhou family

The disciples of the four great families were also privately discussing, each harboring their own schemes.

”During this Red Cloud Abyss expedition, we must join forces to resist the sect factions and ensure the interests of our families remain secure!”

A disciple from the Mu family said firmly, their eyes sparkling with determination.

”Exactly! We must protect ourselves while seizing treasures from the sect factions, letting them know the strength of the four great families!” Qian Duoduo added, a sly smile playing on his lips.

The once-in-a-century secret realm opening was destined to be a tumultuous battle, a contest of power and intrigue. Who would emerge victorious remained to be seen by the passage of time.

Where there are people, there is Jianghu, and factions brew their own schemes.

Holy Pill Sect.

”Junior Brother Gu, the Red Cloud Abyss is about to open. Will you participate in the trial?”

Lin Miaomiao probed hesitantly, though inwardly she was eager to join this trial—having Gu Sheng’s presence would give her life an added layer of security.

”A centennial event like this? Not just me; I believe even our master elders won’t miss out.”

Treasure beyond Dark Level, heavenly materials at the Immortal Level—anyone with some strength would be loath to forgo such an opportunity.

In truth, many treasures of the Red Cloud Continent originated from the Red Cloud Abyss.

Those treasures that each major faction fought over to the death, those mountain-sealing treasures—most are sourced from the Red Cloud Abyss.

Where there’s reward, there’s risk. Over millennia, countless strong figures have perished in the Red Cloud Abyss.

One week later, Lu Junyi announced the list of participants for the Red Cloud Abyss trial.

Almost all elders and masters above the Marrow Refining Realm would take part, while disciples at the Silver Bone Realm could voluntarily sign up.

Given the immense danger, participation was entirely voluntary.

Half a month later, the day arrived as planned.

As beams of dazzling light flashed one after another, the elders and disciples of the various factions were transmitted into the Red Cloud Abyss.

The legendary secret realm unfolded before them: fiery red clouds churned like a sea of flames on the boil.

”Stay alert, everyone! The Red Cloud Abyss is riddled with danger. Remain vigilant at all times!”

Mad Saber Sect’s Xue Ji shouted to the crowd, her voice resonating powerfully, echoing through the misty clouds.

”Hmph, danger lurking everywhere? So what? We of the Thousand Poison Sect are not to be trifled with!”

The elder of the Thousand Poison Sect snorted coldly, leading his disciples swiftly forward, their figures blending into the crimson clouds as if merging with the scarlet world around them.

The disciples of the Giant Sword Sect worked together diligently, wielding their enormous sword weapons to cleave through layers of red cloud, forging ahead resolutely into the depths.

The disciples of Haoyang Sect advanced quickly under the illumination of sunlight. Dressed in golden Daoist robes, they gleamed brilliantly within the crimson fog, like messengers of light.

The Holy Pill Sect, however, took a more leisurely pace under Lu Junyi’s lead.

Lu Junyi wielded a Phantom Phoenix Feather Fan, gently waving it to summon gusts of fresh air that dissipated the red clouds.

”Elder Lu, why are we taking things so leisurely? Other factions have already begun seizing resources.”

A Holy Pill Sect disciple couldn’t help but ask.

Lu Junyi chuckled softly, waving his fan and pointing into the depths of the Red Cloud Abyss:

”True treasures are often hidden at the end—why rush? Besides, our primary target is rare medicinal ingredients, not mere ordinary resources.”
