Chapter 4793: Origin
Feng Chen felt equally speechless.
So, they should be grateful that they only felt heavily suppressed, and their cultivation realm wasn't suppressed below freezing point like this young man's.
Shen Wu looked at them with great confusion, secretly thinking: Why do these two sirs seem unaffected? The speed they burst forth with when saving him just now didn't seem like they were under absolute suppression at all.
So, how much difference is there really between people?
Feng Chen looked at the young man expressionlessly and cleared his throat. "Brother Shen, you mean, there's a city founded inside this undersea abyss?"
Mo Lian's words were truly effective; he said it, and it came true. There really was a gathering place here.
Shen Wu quickly nodded.
Zuo Lanshan asked with a face full of confusion, "How is that possible? I've lived here for at least two hundred years. How come I never knew there was a city inside this undersea abyss?"
Feng Chen impatiently interrupted him. "I told you, you've been hibernating for so long, anything is possible."
Zuo Lanshan thought about it carefully, and he realized it was true. He had indeed hibernated for a very long time, so long that he couldn't even remember the duration.
"Where did the people in the undersea abyss come from?" Zuo Lanshan's eyes held a strange glint.
It was like, he thought he had lived alone in the undersea abyss for over a hundred years, miserably poisoned and pitiful? In fact, no, there was a huge bunch of neighbors next door, and he lived there so long without knowing anything.
"Those aboriginals, I suspect, are sea people who were exiled here from nearby."
"Some of them have fish tails. I guess they are..."
"People from the Forgetful River Long clan?" Feng Chen was somewhat surprised. "Isn't the Sacrificial Sea Abyss a place for commemorating the heroic souls of the sea?"
Mo Lian stood aside, shook his head at the sound, and revealed an "already expected" expression. He said faintly, "The Records of Mountain and River Anomalies document it. In earlier years, the sea was not peaceful either."
"Multiple sea clans fought each other. The Sacrificial Sea Abyss, at first, was a place where the Forgetful River Long clan and several other aristocratic families exiled traitors from their clans."
"Most of the people who could be exiled to the Sacrificial Sea Abyss were heinous villains."
Feng Chen suddenly understood. "So, what Brother Shen said, the aboriginals of the Nation of Sin, are actually those people from the major sea clans who were exiled?"
Mo Lian nodded. "I guess so."
"What do they eat living in such a hellhole?" Feng Chen was somewhat surprised.
In such a harsh environment, these people could still survive with difficulty. How strong was their will to live?
Shen Wu nodded. "Nothing can be grown here, and it's also very far from the surface of the sea above. Compared to food, the lack of water is their bigger problem."
"But they soon discovered the existence of that sinkhole."
"At first, they fought each other, pushing some people into the sinkhole to plunder resources from their inner worlds and distribute them," Shen Wu said with a heavy expression.
"Gradually, the longer they lived here, the fewer inner world resources they could plunder," Shen Wu said. "After all, it's like eating up resources without producing any; every day that passes means one less day of provisions."
"Later, they climbed the stone wall and discovered a large glacier above, so they chiseled down some ice blocks to serve as a water source."
"But those ice blocks are also diminishing."
