Chapter 2 The Godfall Pit

The next morning, a teacher came to escort Qiao Yu to the Godfall Pit.

To Qiao Yu's surprise, it was a familiar face. A bald head emerged from the crowd, and then Qiao Yu saw Qiang Se's stubble-covered face.

"Teacher Qiang Se, what a coincidence."

"Yes... quite a coincidence." Qiang Se's gaze towards Qiao Yu was also somewhat strange.

This fellow named Tian'e was just too good at creating surprises. He had just entered the Pantheon Academy and went to the wrong class, getting beaten up by him. A few days later, he caused a huge commotion.

He realized that he had underestimated this kid's ability to stir up trouble.

"Let's go, let's go up the mountain!"

Qiang Se led Qiao Yu out of the Pantheon Academy. The moment the security guard saw Qiao Yu, his eyes widened, and he immediately opened the gate!

He was really afraid of repairing the door again!

The Pantheon Academy was located at the foot of God Mountain. Neither Qiao Yu nor Qiang Se were ordinary people, so they simply brought some food and water and headed towards God Mountain.

Qiao Yu didn't expect that his first time climbing God Mountain in the Western Alliance would be because of punishment…

As soon as they left Dusk Town, they were greeted by a forest. The two plunged into it and began to climb up the mountain.

As the altitude increased, the deciduous birch forest gradually disappeared, and only cold-adapted pine trees remained in the forest.

Soon Qiao Yu climbed to the middle of the mountain, and the snow quickly became thicker, initially reaching his shins, then his knees.

In some of the deeper areas, it could even reach his thighs. This harsh environment destined God Mountain to be rarely visited.

After exiting the dense forest, Qiang Se didn't take Qiao Yu to continue climbing upwards, but instead turned and climbed towards a steep snow slope.

After crossing the snow slope, Qiang Se stopped.

"We're here!"

Qiang Se's expression became somewhat fearful. Qiao Yu followed his gaze and saw a bottomless pit!

There was also a bottomless crack in the pit, which Qiao Yu estimated to be tens of meters wide, as if a large sword had been stabbed into the waist of God Mountain.

Just looking at it from a distance made Qiao Yu feel a chill in his heart. The crack was like a monster opening its mouth, as gloomy as the road to the Nine Nether Hell.

"Teacher Qiang Se, is this the Godfall Pit?" Qiao Yu's Adam's apple involuntarily bobbed up and down, and he asked with the last glimmer of hope.

"Yes!"

Qiang Se nodded heavily, shattering Qiao Yu's fantasy.

"You only need to stay on the periphery for seven days, and remember never to get close to that crack! Otherwise, even Dean Ganfofu won't be able to save you!"

Qiang Se's expression was very solemn, as if he was also very afraid of that crack.

In recent years, there had been other students besides Qiao Yu who had been brought to the Godfall Pit for punishment. Basically, as long as they didn't get close to that crack, nothing would happen. At most, they would be seriously injured by the Chang (spirits controlled by tigers).

"Go in!" Qiang Se urged.

Qiao Yu took a deep breath. Now that things had come to this, he might as well face the music. He wanted to see what kind of ghosts were in this Godfall Pit!

He lifted his foot and walked towards the pit down the slope without hesitation.

The surrounding mountains were covered with snow, but the Godfall Pit was full of exposed rocks, without a single snowflake in sight. The brown rocks and the white snow were clearly separated.

When Qiao Yu's foot crossed the snow and entered the Godfall Pit area, something terrifying happened!

Qiao Yu suddenly heard bursts of crying in his ears. The crying was extremely sad, as if mourning the death of someone.

Immediately afterwards, countless semi-transparent figures appeared in front of Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu was horrified. When he looked at it from the outside just now, there was clearly nothing in the Godfall Pit!

With his arrival, those semi-transparent figures turned their heads one after another, and pale faces stared at Qiao Yu.

"Um, hello everyone, I'm just a student, I was punished to come here, I didn't mean to offend you, please be kind!"

Although Qiao Yu didn't know what these things that were neither human nor ghost were, he still tried to communicate with them.

"It's useless, they can't understand what you're saying. These things in front of you are called Chang! They are the embodiment of the evil thoughts of the gods, and they have no intelligence."

A black shadow floated out of Qiao Yu's body, looking at the semi-transparent figures in front of him.

"Damn it? Big brother, why are you out! How am I going to explain it if Qiang Se sees you later!" Qiao Yu quickly used his body to block the Scholar Ghost.

"Don't worry, there is a barrier in this place. Unless he walks in, he won't be able to see the situation inside from the outside." The Scholar Ghost's tone was calm.

Qiao Yu looked back and found that Qiang Se was indeed not moving at all, but was sitting cross-legged outside, silently guarding.

He then breathed a sigh of relief: "You should have said so earlier, you scared me to death!"

The Scholar Ghost ignored Qiao Yu, but continued to stare at the semi-transparent Chang in front of him.

And those Chang also reacted. Their original empty and lifeless expressions began to become ferocious, and then they slowly surrounded Qiao Yu and the Scholar Ghost!

A hint of ferocity also appeared in their pale eyeballs!

All living things are targets of the Chang's attacks, even ghosts are no exception.

As the distance between the two sides got closer and closer, the Chang let out silent roars and instantly rushed towards the two of them.

With a strong grab, the Scholar Ghost instantly crushed the Chang in the front.

The strength of a single Chang is not very strong, only about mid-level, but there are too many of them.

Qiao Yu gasped. They had only just stepped into the periphery of the Godfall Pit, and the number of Chang that had surrounded them was as high as tens of thousands. No one knew how many more were inside.

The Scholar Ghost was faintly excited, and Qiao Yu was surprised to find that the power on the Scholar Ghost seemed to have become a little stronger.

"Qiao Yu! Help me kill these Chang. I don't know why, but I seem to be able to absorb the energy from them!" The Scholar Ghost was very excited.

"Really? Wait a minute, let me try if that skill works here!"

Since Qiang Se couldn't see him, Qiao Yu didn't pretend anymore and directly took out the Dark Staff.

Six Paths Power! Activate!

Then Qiao Yu stood there without any movement, and the Chang who were originally pouncing on him were stunned for a moment, then immediately turned their heads and pounced on the Scholar Ghost.

Looking at the overwhelming Chang, the Scholar Ghost's face immediately turned green!

"Damn it, you old trickster, I'm really impressed!"
