Daughter of the Dao and Devil Venerables Chapter 71 - The Serpent Lord Lian Zhe

A dark grey ball made from intertwined tree roots emerged from the black soil. After shaking the remaining dirt off its body and landing on the ground, the ball opened itself, revealing a little white furball.

"Thank you, Grandpa Tree."

The old tree demon shook his roots gently before returning to the soil and disappearing from sight.

Lu Yaoyao turned around and looked ahead. The old tree demon gave her a ride and directly sent her to the periphery of the Serpent Lord's territory, but he did not dare to enter further. Here was the place rumored to be the deepest part of the Abyss. The terrain in front of Lu Yaoyao's eyes consisted of undulating hills and strangely jagged rocks, looking very gloomy.

Compared to other areas she had visited so far, the soil here was scorched black, making the place look even dimmer, and if not for Lu Yaoyao's excellent night vision, she wouldn't be able to see in such an environment.

Lu Yaoyao's white fur was very conspicuous in this dark place, so she rolled a few times on the ground, instantly turning herself into a dirty grey little dumpling with a higher stealth stats.

After Lu Yaoyao disguised herself, she scanned her surroundings on high alert and started to proceed silently.

Where did brother Yuanyuan go?

This place was eerily quiet. Ever since the old tree demon left, Lu Yaoyao hadn't heard a single sound, which was obviously not normal. Lu Yaoyao kept walking in the darkness for a very long time until she eventually reached what seemingly was a dead end. It was a very tall cliff wall with a top that she couldn't even see. Having no other choice, Lu Yaoyao walked along the wall until she suddenly found a gap in the cliff.

The little dumpling stared at the gap for a while, anticipating a serpent to suddenly come out. Her spiritual sense penetrated inside. The gap seemed to be very long, but she did not sense a single life inside.

The entire territory seemed to be totally empty, but why?

Lu Yaoyao went to look again, but found no other way. The cliff was too high for her to climb, and she might not be able to reach the other side.

Lu Yaoyao hesitated for a while, but she finally decided to enter. The gap was narrow, penetrating very deeply. The little dumpling kept throttling forward for a long time, but still did not yet reach the other end. The total darkness made her unaware of the passing of time. After an unknown amount of time passed, Lu Yaoyao finally saw the light ahead. The light was very hazy at first, but gradually became brighter as she approached.

When Lu Yaoyao finally exited the gap, the bright light forced her to close her eyes in discomfort. Having been living in a dark environment for so long, she was a bit unaccustomed to suddenly face such brightness.

After Lu Yaoyao's eyes adapted to the new environment, she looked around and instantly wowed in amazement. There were flowers and green leaves everywhere, with colorful butterflies dancing around, lush green trees in the distance, and the clear sound of gurgling water.

Lu Yaoyao was confused for a moment. Had she exited the Abyss? How come it be so easy? All she did was just crawl through the gap, ah!

Could it be that the creatures in the Abyss couldn't leave because they were too big?

At such a beautiful place, a dusty little dumpling was very conspicuous, so Lu Yaoyao quickly used the dirt-removal spell to clean her body back into a little white dumpling. Only then did she begin her exploration. Compared to the Abyss, this place was simply a paradise. The flowers, trees, and grasses here obviously had yet to develop spiritual wisdom, and they did not show any particular response when she walked through them.
