Chapter 591
Chapter 591 The Stormy Abyss
Walking forward, the foliage around us became more decayed and rotten . Since we walked into the forest, there were no longer any level 1-2 Hybrid Demons . However, that didn’t mean much to the Red Dragon Queen and I . I could still manage to kill quite a few within a minute, where as Zhi Shu could kill all of them in one stroke . Furthermore, she and I were no master servant relation, so I also received part of the experience from the monsters that she killed . Even though it wasn’t much, at the rate she was killing them, it would add up to quite a bit in the end . If we didn’t come here for the sake of regaining Frost’s body, then bringing this Red Dragon Queen along to a high level map would be a wonderful thing .
……
We continued forward and saw a pitch black plain . Twilight had fallen . A ghostly howl rang through the plains . Hearing it made me subconsciously shudder . I urged my horse forward and pulled out my Dragon Reservoir Sword . After a few steps, I heard a bell beside my ear——
“Ding!”
System Notification: Please note, you have stepped into the dangerous map——[Death Plains], one of the maps of the Seven Hybrid Demon Territories . It is guarded by The Berserker Lei Ding and Hell’s Battle Song – Lin Han!
“Death Plains?”
I furrowed my eyebrows and looked ahead of me . There was a dark abyss between the Death Plains and where I stood . The abyss began from the Bloody Plains, and cut across right to where I was . The only way across was the narrow road before me . It lead to a rope bridge that disappeared into the fog . Demonic magic radiated from the bridge . I could even see a ghost rise up from its chains .
“Ghostly Rope Bridge…”
The Red Dragon Queen Zhi Shu smiled, “I’ve heard about this rope bridge . Rumors have it that it’s melded from the souls of evil demons . It’s seven kilometers long . Only a fearless warrior can overcome the Ghostly Rope Bridge . If the heart waves even the slightest, then you will fall and be crushed to death at the bottom of Death Valley…”
I sheathed my sword and put away my horse . I then walked forward and grabbed onto the chains of the rope bridge . The chains were as thick as my arm . I strode forward and stood on the first plank . Once my weight shifted on, the bridge began to sway . Fortunately, my sense of balance was pretty good and I was well practiced in martial arts . Walking across only took basic skills .
Looking at my careful expression, Zhi Shu smiled and strode over . “Pa!” She stepped right onto the Ghostly Rope Bridge and slowly walked forward and said, “Master, the legend of the Ghostly Rope Bridge is only there to scare away cowards . However, I do believe that there is something that has been following us from behind . Master does not need to worry though, no matter what the thing is I will kill it for you!”

I nodded, “Yes, let’s head out then . Once we’re across the Ghostly Rope Bridge, then we’ll enter the map of the Death Plains . After the Death Plains is the Stormy Abyss . There we’ll arrive at our destination . ”
“Yes!”
……
Man and Dragon, one after another, walked along the rope bridge . I pulled out my weapons, my Dragon Reservoir Sword in one hand and my Zhen Yue Sword in the other . I then collected my Ancient Heavenly Tiger . Even though the little thing was a Ghost Harvest type pet, it didn’t necessarily understand the skill of walking across chains .
Wind blew past my ear, fluttering my hood . The Red Dragon Queen looked back at me with her big eyes and continued forward . As her master, I couldn’t be too terrified, or else I would be looked down by this Queen of the Dragons .
The further we went, the thicker the fog became . Even the chains became slippery from the water that collected on it . I had even lost my footing and slipped a few times . Thankfully, I was gripping the sides very tightly, so I wasn’t about to fall . Otherwise, It would’ve been truly hard to walk across .
“Careful, something is getting close… . ”
I gripped my sword and looked at the mpa . Three red dots were charging right towards us .
“Ji ji… . ”
I heard the screeches from above . They were three Plunderers, Level 3 Hybrid Demons . They broke through the fog and flew at us . They then raised their claws, throwing an attack right at me .
I smiled . Then raised both my swords and threw a [Wind Slash]+[Fierce Ice Blade] . Then I dealt a seven slash combo . The first Plunderer’s health quickly dropped to the bottom . The power behind my explosive attack was real . Right before its death, the Plunderer dealt one last attack . I quickly slid forward . Then turned around and slashed with both my swords, killing it in one stroke .
The other two monsters rushed over . Zhi Shu wryly smiled and then raised her arm . A flaming dragon claw appeared in front of her hand . “Pa Pa!” the dragon claw rushed forward, crushing the two Plunderers . It was an instant kill!
“……”
I was speechless . Compared to Zhi Shu, my strength was just far too small .
However, the beautiful Red Dragon Queen smiled, “master’s strength is already top among the human adventurers . Being able to kill a Level 3 Hybrid Demon on your own is already quite a lot . These Hybrid Demons are equivalent to actual demons among the humans . A town’s entire army isn’t enough to kill just one of them, much less a Level 3 Hybrid Demon… . ”
I was stunned and chuckled to myself, “If I was really strong, then how could I watch as Frost was killed right before me…”
“Ay… . ”
Zhi Shu smiled sympathetically, “Do not worry, Master . I think… I think that even if Frost had died in battle, she would still feel proud having a student like you . After all, you entered into the Hybrid Demon Territory for her sake . This already proves that you care about her . In this world, how many people are willing to go this far…”

I nodded and said, “Queen Zhi Shu, I want to ask something . ”
“Please ask . ”
“After someone dies, can they revive?”
“This…” Zhi Shu was puzzled and said, “All living beings in the sky and on the earth go through the cycle of life . Normally, I would say that it is impossible . However… . The existence of a soul and its shell also goes by the laws of life and death . If you could find her soul, and then create a new body, and have the soul possess that body, maybe that would achieve your goal . However…Master, do not put too much hope in that . Frost’s spirit power will not be weak . It would be difficult to find a body that can hold so much power . That would be too hard . This is also the reason why throughout history, very few people have been able to revive from the dead . ”
I gripped my sword and said, “No matter what, I will revive her!”
“Yes!”
Zhi Shu silently looked at me and smiled, “Don’t worry . . Even if Zhi Shu is no longer your servant, I will help you as a friend!”
“Thank you…”
Right at that moment, more screeches sounded through the clouds . The Ghostly Rope Bridge shuddered . It seemed as though more things were coming .
As I expected, a few minutes later, black lizards started crawling towards us along the Rope Bridge . They were a group of very special lizards . They had suction pads on their feet, allowing them to easily crawl along the rope bridge . Scales wrapped around their entire bodies like armor!
Iron Wall Lizards, Level 4 Hybrid Demons . They are a type of lizard that lives deep in the forest . It has suction pads on its feet that allows it to run along cliffs .
A level 117 Hybrid Demon, I can kill it!
I raised both my swords and charged forward . I then slashed forward, cutting right into the group of lizards . As I was killing them, I gulped down a Heavenly Tier Level 1 Dragon Spit Pill, recovering 10,000 of my health while continuously being healed . This way, I could solo this Level 4 Hybrid demons with my stats . I killed them one after another . I then used a Demon Sword Master card, increasing my Fifth Class Advancement hidden boosts . I was confident I could deal with them .
“Ao ao… . ”
When I killed the Nth Iron Wall Lizard, I reached out and grabbed the equipment that was dropped . I glanced at the time . I had already been fighting with these Level 4 Hybrid Demons for 2 hours . I have no idea just how many I had killed, but I figured it was all to grind levels .
The Red Dragon Queen behind me seemed to be a little annoyed . “Shua!” she reached out and grabbed my arm . Afterwards, she dove downwards . “Pa!” she shook the rope bridge!
“Hummm… . ”
The Rope Bridge shuddered and a crowd of lizards fell off the rope bridge . Zhi Shu put me back onto the rope bridge . I smiled, “This way will be much easier . Master, let’s hurry up If you think that Frost’s soul is still in her remaining body, then let’s hurry up . Otherwise, who knows what the Hybrid Demon Kings are going to do with Frost’s head? Maybe, they want to reconstruct Frost’s body, and make it into a Hybrid Demon King . Do you want the next time you meet her for her to be your enemy?”
I shuddered and didn’t say anything . I sheathed my sword and began to sprint forward . I said, “No matter what comes at us, Queen Zhi Shi, you have to help me kill it!”
“Alright!”
I ran forward . On both side, there were at least 3-5 Level Hybrid Demons that could fly . However, none of them could get close to us . They were all instantly killed by the Red Dragon Queen . This also gave me quite a it of experience at the same time .
Not long after, we made it out of the fog . We had finally made it out of that long Ghostly Rope Bridge . I leapt up and lightly landed on the plains . I then summoned my Flying Scythe War Horse . I leapt onto my horse and then called out my Ancient Heavenly Tiger, entering into a battle stance .
Right in front of me, it was as though they had received information, a group of Level 3 Hybrid Demon Hellhounds howled and charged at me .
I glanced at the map and said, “The Stormy Abyss is just west of us . Let’s head over!”
“Yes!”
Man and dragon rushed into the distance . One group of the Hellhounds that caught up to us had been easily killed by the Red Dragon Queen and I . After 3 hours of killing and running, we finally made it to the border of the Death Plains . There seemed to be nobody there to block us . After going another 1000 meters, we saw an enormous tornado that remained in the plains . Just below the tornado was the entrance to the Stormy Abyss . When I looked down into it, I felt my heart stop .
Frost, are you in there?”
