Almost half a month later, they arrived at the border of the Ross Empire and saw the widely long crevice leading down to the depths.
This was actually a danger zone recorded in the Royal Library of the Loret Family, named, the Absolute Death Crevice.
It was said that Fourth Stage Magical Beasts exists in this Absolute Death Crevice, so no one bothered to enter it since the top powerhouses had already scouted out the place, mentioning that there were no treasures to be found from time immemorial.
Even so, many people did try their luck and enter but they still died, becoming the cause for the name, Absolute Death Crevice.
Davis nonchalantly flew into the Absolute Death Crevice as Clara followed behind him indifferently.
The opening of the crevice was like a small tideland where two or three waterfalls were running down the crevice from time to time.
The waterfall made the crevice like structure to possess flowstones and even stalagmites on some protruded edges of the crevice.
However, the flowstones and stalagmites were formed from no ordinary rocks, and they looked blue in color, lighting the crevice in a dazzling sapphire hue.
This blue colored rock formation was something previously known as Indro Rock, which was used as a material for forging Mortal Grade Weapons.
Yes, the crevice was a mining site for Indro Rock Ores but deep inside the crevice, there was a wide surface with an oasis that was purely beneficial to Magical Beasts.
That is why no one came to mine the Indro Rocks despite it being situated on the opening of the crevice, afraid that they might be targeted by the magical beasts.
The Indro Rocks weren’t the only material that could be found here but numerous ingredients such as mushrooms or unique spirit grass could be found here as well.
However, it still wasn’t enough for the adventurers to risk their lives, so this place has been quite abandoned throughout the Millenium other than the magical beasts acting as a natural barrier to other empires.
Davis slowly descended down the crevice, his eyes darted around as he saw many cave-like structures, amounting to hundreds, if not thousands.
Some caves were naturally formed but many were artificially formed as the Magical Beasts living here built their own by digging into the Indro Rock Walls.
Davis felt the presence of many Sky Beast Stage Magical Beasts in the upper part of the crevice and Spirit Beast Stage in the lower part of the crevice.
As his Soul Sense invaded the entire Absolute Death Crevice, he even found two Grand Beast Stage Magical Beasts in an elliptical-shaped cavern-like structure beside the oasis.
Grand Beast Stage Magical Beasts were Fifth Stage Magical Beasts and were in their prime. He could see why this place had been marked a danger zone.
As his Soul Sense was at the Sixth Stage, none of them could even trace back or even notice his Soul Sense
Unfortunately, he could tell that none of them were Earth Rank Species, otherwise, he would’ve considered capturing some while returning from the trip.
Different from the Mortal Rank Species Magical Beasts, Earth Rank Magical Beasts could transform into humans.
However, Davis didn’t know how they transform internally.
For example, as far as he had seen, they had the characteristics of their magical beast traits in their hair, eyes and all the parts of the human body, however, they didn’t possess a horn, a tail, or even claws.
They looked a lot like humans rather than demi-humans he initially thought them to be. He thought they would transform into half-human and half-beast form but reality had been quite different.
Or maybe they could and they just didn’t prefer that form.
In any case, he felt that he needed an Earth Rank Species Magical Beast for pure curiosity.
Princess Isabella had an Emperor Rank Species Magical Beast but he doubted if she would even let him ’experiment’ on that little dragon.
As he descended over the middle of the crevice, he moved forward to a cave entrance that was on the walls and entered it.
Stepping to the front, he crossed the place where the wall previously existed and entered a narrow passage.
The narrow passage seemed to move underground and they walked forwards in a spiral for about ten minutes or so.
Finally, they entered a dilapidated hall that looked incredibly battered and not taken care of, just like that secret temple from where he transmigrated to the Grand Sea Continent.
Davis looked at the altar that was at the center, and his eyes flashed with momentary glee! He rushed forwards a little and slowly walked around the formation that was at the center of the place.
The eye, the patterns, the diagrams... Everything seemed to come back to him in an instant.
It was the same as the formation in the secret temple as far as he could differ from an external point of view. If that was the case, then this meant that the two places were undoubtedly connected.
But this made no sense!
Then how did he break through the space and possess this body?
If the latter can be said to be the work of Fallen Heaven, then the former can be said to be the work of the formation in the secret temple.
Then if that’s true, wouldn’t that mean the formation in the Absolute Death Crevice and the Formation in the Secret Temple was not connected?
At that time when he possessed this body, he was nowhere near Ross Empire, much less the Absolute Death Crevice.
Did that mean his journey through the space tunnel was not complete?
Davis felt his mind go blank as he felt confused.
Viktor provided him no explanations with the other side and he didn’t want to ask either since that would reveal he was once a person of Planet Earth or at least a person who once knew of that place.
His actions were already suspicious enough, so he did not want to reveal that fact to all people, except his loved ones but there was also an exception; Drake Blackburn.
Since they were from the same place and needed information about their bugged existence, they felt a sense of familiarity with each other.
And probably, that’s why they could share information with each other even when meeting for only a short while after or so Davis thought.
Davis shook his head and saw the outer circle of the diagram contain eight elliptical spaces.
Viktor told him that there were numerous Low-Level Spirit Stones placed on these elliptical spaces, and they used it to activate the formation.
But now, the elliptical spaces are empty and the formation was not energized but Viktor told him the requirements to activate the formation.
Davis walked to the eight elliptical spaces and kept 125 Low-Level Spirit Stones each, amounting to a thousand.
He then walked to the center of the formation and said, "Clara, I’ll be going first, If I don’t return within a day, go back to the Royal Castle."
Clara nodded her head obediently. They had already talked about this before departure.
Davis wasn’t willing to send Clara to her death by making a careless mistake.
The first time he used a spatial formation ripped his flesh and body to pieces. Although negligible and didn’t cause a trauma, that event still remained in his head.
And though he could use Fallen Heaven to send some people through the spatial tunnel to verify its integrity, he’d rather not as its integrity was already confirmed by Viktor and the others.
What remained in his heart was a slight amount of cautious towards the unknown; the mysterious entity.
When traveling in the spatial tunnel, what if that unknown and mysterious existence which sealed Fallen Heaven pulls him into another space? Wouldn’t he and most importantly, Clara be doomed then? He wanted to avoid that at all costs.
Davis activated the formation and instantly his figure disappeared from the place, leaving only a speedy wave of air, lifting up Clara’s lustrous blonde hair to the heavens she as stared at the spectacle.
