The Immortal Falling Cliff was too mysterious, containing great terror.
The nine forbidden lands, each with its own rules and peculiarities.
The Desolate Elder Village, boundless darkness, devouring all things.
The Grudge Town, eerie and terrifying, not a place for the living.
What was going on inside this Immortal Falling Cliff?
Over the long years, many had ventured into the Immortal Falling Cliff, never to return alive. Even the Ancestor 'Qing Jue' had only instructed him to seek opportunities here, without providing any intelligence.
Was it that he hadn't told him, or that he couldn't?
With too little intelligence regarding the Immortal Falling Cliff, Chen Jiuyang did not rush in.
Instead, he gathered information nearby.
The five holy lands and the two sects of Buddhism and Daoism, a total of seven forces, had jointly ambushed and attempted to kill him, but failed. The news spread like wildfire, and within a short period, no rumors emerged from the seven forces.
"Sect Master, the Sect Master of Origin Holy Sect and the Sect Master of Truth Holy Sect have come to visit you."
Chen Jiuyang stood before the boundless rain curtain, carefully observing the forbidden land of Immortal Falling Cliff. A elder from the True Demon Sect approached to report.
Origin Demon Sect and Truth Demon Sect?
What did they want with him?
Chen Jiuyang was puzzled and mused, "Invite the two Sect Masters here."
"Yes, Sect Master."
Soon, the Sect Master of Origin Demon Sect and the Sect Master of Truth Demon Sect, both from the nine great demonic sects, arrived before Chen Jiuyang.
Yuan Wu Mo Jun, the Sect Master of Origin Demon Sect, appeared as a handsome and ethereally beautiful young man: "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Qianyang."
Bing Huang Mo Jun, the Sect Master of Truth Demon Sect, was a rugged man with a deep voice: "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Qianyang."
Chen Jiuyang nodded slightly. He now held the position of Sect Master of the True Demon Sect, with the title Qianyang Mo Jun.
Chen Jiuyang looked at them calmly and asked, "You two esteemed friends are always busy. Coming personally to the vicinity of the Immortal Falling Cliff to seek me out, is there something of great importance?"
"We heard that Fellow Daoist Qianyang has been at the Immortal Falling Cliff for ten days. Are you perhaps intending to explore it?" Yuan Wu Mo Jun said.
"Indeed." Chen Jiuyang spoke with three parts truth and seven parts falsehood, saying, "Previously, when I ascended to the position of Sect Master, I awakened Ancestor 'Qing Jue'. She told me there were opportunities here to improve my strength and instructed me to come here without fail."
Bing Huang Mo Jun said, "As expected. It is rumored that the Immortal Falling Cliff contains Imperial Dao laws. If one can refine and absorb them, their cultivation can be rapidly improved."
"However, the Immortal Falling Cliff has been extremely dangerous since ancient times. But if our holy sects join forces, the risk can be greatly reduced."
Yuan Wu Mo Jun said, "Fellow Daoist Qianyang already knows our intentions. What do you think?"
Chen Jiuyang pondered, "If we can travel together, it will indeed reduce much of the risk. I accept. How about we pool the information and clues we each possess?"
"That is precisely our intention," Bing Huang Mo Jun said.
Chen Jiuyang did not know that the Immortal Falling Cliff contained Imperial Dao laws.
But as far as he knew, even Imperial Dao powerhouses, upon their demise, would have all their possessions returned to heaven and earth, leaving nothing behind. Moreover, these two were both cultivators of the immortal path, old beings who had lived for a thousand years.
Nascent Soul cultivators could not interact with laws. Only upon reaching the Void Returning stage, beginning the return to simplicity, would they encounter laws.
These two old fellows seeking him out required him to be cautious. Although they were all leaders of great demonic sects, banding together for warmth in this mortal world and collectively known as 'Saints', once they entered a forbidden land, such relationships might not be so certain.
Bing Huang Mo Jun said, "My Truth Holy Sect has ancient texts that record how great powers of the past spent hundreds of years carving out several safe paths into the depths of the Immortal Falling Cliff. I can share this information completely."
Yuan Wu Mo Jun said, "My Origin Holy Sect has the personal notes of predecessors, recording three peculiar laws within the Immortal Falling Cliff. If one can avoid these laws, their safety will be greatly increased."
"..." Chen Jiuyang.
Ancestor 'Qing Jue' had once unified the nine demonic sects. Later, the nine demonic sects split again, and each sect had relevant records.
Chen Jiuyang said, "The True Saint Sect records that the Immortal Falling Cliff contains eternally fallen monsters."
The Immortal Falling Cliff held great terror. If ordinary people entered, they would gradually degenerate into monsters.
Yuan Wu Mo Jun and Bing Huang Mo Jun nodded slowly.
"Then let's have our respective sect elders organize the information. After it's compiled, we can set off together, how about it?"
"Good."
"Agreed."
Organizing vast and ancient information was not a simple task. Only immortal cultivators from ancient families could understand ancient languages.
Every day, many people ventured into the Immortal Falling Cliff, with the lowest being at the Golden Core stage or Earth Realm cultivation.
Not everyone was like Chen Jiuyang, Bing Huang Mo Jun, and Yuan Wu Mo Jun, seeking more. Some rogue cultivators or members of small sects and families simply went in to scavenge for resources.
Two days later, Chen Jiuyang and the others were fully prepared. Yuan Wu Mo Jun piloted a flying ship, leading everyone into the Immortal Falling Cliff.
...
Inside the Immortal Falling Cliff.
Crimson.
Terrifying.
No matter where one looked, the sky was filled with scarlet, ominous, and eerie red clouds and blood rain.
The blood rain poured down, isolating all sounds, making it impossible to perceive one's surroundings. Upon entering here, the effect of spiritual sense detection was lost.
In the depths of the Immortal Falling Cliff, there was a mountain and a cliff, emanating a terrifying aura of heaven and earth overturning, making one's heart pound and dare not proceed further.
After Chen Jiuyang and the others entered the Immortal Falling Cliff, more people entered.
"The feeling inside the Immortal Falling Cliff is so oppressive." Qin Rouyu, clad in a black cloak, sat on a flying ship, her beautiful eyes furrowed.
"The Immortal Falling Cliff is full of strangeness and danger everywhere. If we didn't have safe routes, no one would dare to enter easily," Wang Jiegui said, "But this place can block the Heavenly Dao. Junior Sister, it's best to advance to the Nascent Soul stage here, as it won't attract heavenly tribulations."
"Let's follow the information left by the seniors of the holy lands and go to that safe place to cultivate in seclusion."
...
Chen Jiuyang had been sitting on the flying ship for several days.
From the outside, this forbidden land of Immortal Falling Cliff appeared to be at most the size of a county. At the speed of a flying ship, it would take less than ten minutes to reach the destination.
Yet, they had been flying for several days, and there was still a long distance to the terrifying mountain and cliff. This forbidden land of Immortal Falling Cliff must contain spatial formations or spatial compression laws, otherwise, it wouldn't be possible.
He gazed upwards. Even with Chen Jiuyang's firm Dao heart and disposition, he could not completely avoid the peculiar laws within the Immortal Falling Cliff. This sorrowful blood rain, never ceasing, would constantly suppress and restrain one's spirit, instilling a sense of despair and terror.
This was one of the three peculiar laws within the Immortal Falling Cliff.
The second law was...
"We have safely passed through the outer region of the Immortal Falling Cliff."
Yuan Wu Mo Jun spoke.
Before them lay a vast, desolate primeval forest. Every tree soared into the sky, making a person appear as small as a single leaf. Beneath the dim and oppressive forest, countless terrifying things were hidden.
