"Cai sent a message saying he found a foreign god king, and we came immediately, only to find he’s already dead?"
"Died so quickly, could it be a third step path opening god king?"
"Damn outsiders." These water demons were full of anger as they spoke one after another.
They all have incredibly long lives and have been trapped here for so long that deep bonds naturally formed over the ages.
To them, the worst thing is that every few million years, a group of outsiders enters this world.
"Cai is dead, but he has merely returned to the Life Sea, where he will attain eternal life." The largest water demon said in a deep voice, "What we have to do is avenge him... if we can kill the outsider, we’ll receive the blessing of the Life Sea’s will."
"Continue the patrol."
The water demons dispersed and began patrolling the Heavenly River again, which was their duty.
Born as eighth rank, but eternally eighth rank, forever trapped here, without the worry of aging, until their minds can no longer bear the passage of time and they rot, die...
Thus, Li Yuan continued forward, occasionally encountering some water demons along the way.
But regardless of the opponent’s strength, as long as he discovered them in advance, Li Yuan adhered to the principle of ’less trouble is better than more trouble’ and avoided them.
There was only one time he encountered an extremely terrifying ice demon, suspected to be nearly as strong as a second step path opening god king.
Even using the "Eternal Heart Cone" was useless; in the end, it was only with domain restriction that Li Yuan barely escaped.
With dangers along the way, Li Yuan finally reached the deepest part of the Heavenly River Icefield, the ’End of the Heavenly River.’
What a magnificent sight it is; as far as the eye could see, the once boundless ’icefield’ suddenly gave way to a colossal abyss, so vast that its end was not visible... And the massive flow of the Heavenly River in the void was crazily plummeting into the abyss below.
The river’s descent created countless mists.
Faintly visible in this abyssal void were huge black stones floating, as if supported by some mysterious power that prevented them from falling into the abyss.
"The End of the Heavenly River."
"Endless Abyss." Li Yuan gazed into the abyss, instinctively feeling a sense of danger, a shiver running through his heart: "Little Tomb, are you sure it’s safe to traverse the Endless Abyss? According to my Chaos Divine Court intelligence, this is a forbidden area, even a perfect god king who enters is doomed."
In the Chaos Divine Court’s intelligence, there are nine great danger zones in the inner domain, with several ’forbidden areas.’
A so-called forbidden area means ’even a perfect god king is doomed.’
For example, the ’Life Sea,’ a mere step deeper, and it becomes a forbidden area. Or this abyss at the End of the Heavenly River.
Occasionally, treasures emerge from the abyss.
The initial god kings of the Chaos Divine Court who arrived at Beichen Star ventured into the Endless Abyss more than once to seek the treasure’s source, but without exception, they all perished.
Their downfall was due to the ’Abyss Storm’!
No one can survive the Abyss Storm.
"Do you think I’d lie to you?" Little Tomb shook his head, "The five major cities of the inner domain represent Beichen Star’s five great formation authorities... Silver Sea City controls the outermost ’Silver Sea’ of Beichen Star, which you call the ’Galaxy Belt.’"
Li Yuan nodded inadvertently; outside Beichen Star, a galaxy over a hundred light-years long surrounds it, incredibly bright... Brother Dong Mang once mentioned that it was Beichen Star’s Guardian Array.
This point was confirmed by Little Tomb.
"If you want to enter the city, you must either break through the city’s core defenses." Little Tomb said, "You can try... I won’t stop you."
Li Yuan was speechless, the core of the five major cities is also a forbidden area.
"And the Endless Abyss leads directly to the core of Silver Sea City... if you withstand the abyss storm, you will succeed." Little Tomb said, "Others fear it, but you are different."
"You possess divine emperor authority, so in the absence of someone deliberately controlling it, the restriction of the abyss storm will default to considering you a ’resident of the inner domain’ who wandered in, greatly reducing its might against you."

"With that, you can easily pass."
Li Yuan suddenly understood, so that was it.
This is the advantage of the ’Honghe Order,’ even in the inner domain, with Little Tomb’s guidance... there are many benefits.
"Move forward." Little Tomb said, "Don’t be afraid."
Li Yuan took a deep breath, maintaining the Fatian Xiangdi state, he plunged into the Endless Abyss. As soon as he entered, he felt an invisible pulling force acting on him.
Trying to drag him downwards.
"Domain." At Li Yuan’s thought, the vast starlight dispersed, stabilizing his posture, and he slowly flew downward.
The water in the void surged like a vast waterfall, rushing madly downwards. These waters were originally extremely heavy, now seemingly compressed by hundreds or thousands of times, descending at high speed... making these Heavenly River flows contain terrifying might.
If one were carelessly hit, even the slightest stream could crush a top divine monarch to death.
As for a god king? If hit head-on by the massive water flow, they would also be greatly affected.
Thus, one must be careful when proceeding in the Endless Abyss.
"Here’s a Void Stone." Li Yuan moved, taking cover beneath the giant stone.
Hiding under the giant stone allowed him only to resist the pulling force, without worrying about the water flow.
These giant stones are ’resting places.’
After resting for a moment, with divine power restored to perfection, Li Yuan continued to fly downward.
