Chapter 2103 2 Difficult Situation
In the dense woods.
Ling Tian moved quickly through it, stopping from time to time to look at the map.
City Lord Zhao has more than just Lian Rui and one think tank under his command... who is also his secretary and the chief steward of the City Lord's Mansion.
It also maintains a think tank team.
Nowadays, the orders to resist the monster siege are basically issued by this think tank team.
They will combine all the information to give the most accurate solution.
The information about Yan Chengyu's whereabouts sent by Patriarch Song naturally also passed through their hands.
The map in Ling Tian's hand was drawn based on the intelligence. It showed Yan Chengyu's route and their speculation about his destination.
There are three speculated locations in total.
Two of them are on the edge of the Abyss, and the remaining one is outrageous - it is in the Abyss.
However, these three locations are not far from each other.
After passing through a collapsed forest, Ling Tian arrived at the first location.
In front of me was a small open space, less than one acre in size, and there was a cliff right in front of the open space.
If nothing unexpected happens, this cliff should be a chasm.
Ling Tian narrowed his eyes and looked towards the opposite side.
With his eyesight, he couldn't even see the other side.
It can be seen how vast this abyss is.
Walking to the edge of the cliff, he lowered his head and looked down.
There was a little fog surrounding it, which made it impossible for the eyes to penetrate. However, the distance he could see was at least several hundred meters.
Looking at this abyss, Ling Tian believed what City Lord Zhao and Lian Ruihe said.
This abyss is a chasm that no one can cross.
Even if he recovered to the state of unity, he could only look on and stand back.
As for Yan Chengyu, let alone the state of unity, he had just entered the state of Tao, and it was even more impossible for him to cross over.
So what is he doing here?
Or is the speculation wrong?
Ling Tian looked around and found no signs that anyone had been here, but this did not rule out the possibility that Yan Chengyu would come here.
Maybe that guy hasn't arrived yet.
Perhaps it was because of the possession of the stubborn soil that the guy was able to hide his tracks perfectly.
Of course, the second possibility is very small, otherwise no matter how powerful the Song family’s intelligence network is, it would be impossible to find him.
The first possibility is also unlikely.
There was such a big difference in the time they set out that Yan Chengyu should have arrived earlier.
After thinking about it, Ling Tian decided to go to the next location.
The two locations are about a kilometer apart.
That is one kilometer.
The center was completely blocked by fallen trees—for some reason, all the trees near the abyss were fallen.
Growing towards the abyss.
After some effort, Ling Tian arrived at the second speculated location.
Like the first one, there was no sign of human presence.
Now there is only one last one left.
That is the place where it falls into the abyss.
In Ling Tian's opinion, this was the most unlikely location. After seeing the appearance of the Abyss with his own eyes, he basically ruled out this location.
After all, the abyss is uncrossable.
Even if Yan Chengyu could reach the bottom of the chasm, he couldn't get to the other side.
Why is he going down there?
Waiting to die?
Unless Yan Chengyu is really crazy, it is impossible for him to do this.
But now that no trace of him has been found in two consecutive locations, the possibility of the last location has greatly increased.
Ling Tian didn't waste any time and headed straight to the last location.
The location of the last site is somewhat special, it is located on a mountain.
That’s right, a mountain.
This mountain is right on the edge of the Abyss, with woodland on one side and the Abyss on the other.
It is shaped like a knife, with the handle and half of the blade embedded in the ground.
Only half of the blade is left, toward the tip.
Standing upright.
There is a steep curve towards the woodland side.
On the other side, straight down.
The mountain is named after its shape - Knife Peak.
Ling Tian looked at the blade that was hundreds of meters high and couldn't help but sigh: Nature is truly amazing.
Hey.
As Ling Tian approached.
He heard a hum coming from the blade's peak.
It was like a real knife, ready to strike.
The towering mountains that reach into the sky give people a strong sense of oppression.
Ling Tian could clearly feel that this sense of oppression was not an illusion, but was real, just like facing a powerful warrior.
The closer the distance, the stronger the sense of oppression.
When reaching the edge of the knife, the feeling of oppression reached its extreme.
Even he had to practice his skills to offset the pressure.
The last location is right in the direction of the "back" of the blade. According to the speculated route, you must first climb up to the top of the blade, and then go down from the tip of the blade along the back of the blade.
A blade that is hundreds of meters long, coupled with an abyss that is bottomless.
Ling Tian seriously doubted that even if Yan Chengyu was really crazy, he would not choose this route.
This is simply seeking death!
So, he didn't rush up.
Instead, he searched along the knife edge first.
The good news was that he did find some traces—shallow footprints on the edge of the blade, and palm prints left by climbing.
The footprints and palm prints were very clear, obviously left recently.
The three cities have been resisting the attacks of monsters recently.
No one will come here.
Perhaps the person who provided information to the Song family would come, but as long as that person was not mentally ill, it would be impossible for him to climb the Knife Peak.
The only person who could possibly climb the mountain was Yan Chengyu.
"Is that guy really going to go under the abyss?"
Looking at the blade that towered into the sky, Ling Tian murmured.
The stubborn soil that Yongzhou City was willing to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of years to obtain is obviously an invaluable treasure.
If he had known that the treasure was in Yan Chengyu's hands, he would not have left Yan Chengyu alone.
pity.
It's too late to say anything now.
He hesitated for a long time.
Ling Tian decided to go up and take a look first.
It is extremely difficult to climb the Blade Peak, even though it is shaped like a blade and has a certain curvature.
But the lower half is almost straight.
After spending several hours, Ling Tian finally climbed to the top of the mountain.
There is only a small area on the top of the mountain where you can stand.
He stood on this platform which was less than half a square meter and looked down.
The side next to the abyss is almost completely straight.
But on this straight blade, you can see small bumps - they are pine trees growing horizontally.
These trees are located every few meters, alternating between left and right.
It's as if someone planted it on purpose.
no doubt.
You can follow these pine trees all the way down.
As long as the pine tree did not break, he would be able to reach the bottom of the abyss.
This is probably what Yan Chengyu will do.
But, it's just a possibility.
No one knows whether Yan Chengyu is really down there. Maybe he just took a walk here and left these traces on purpose.
In fact, his destination had nothing to do with the abyss.
要不要下去?
Ling Tian fell into deep thought.
If you go down, you might find Yan Chengyu.
But it can also be a waste of time.
If I don't go down, I won't waste time, but I may also miss Yan Chengyu.
Ling Tian was in a dilemma.
