Trials of the Abyss

Chapter 459: Practicing in secret

Views:

The third realm, the Sanxian Island area.

Ice Rock City.

This territory originally belonged to the Cyclops, and now it has returned to its original owner.

The Cyclops who rushed out from the fifth realm moved around on three pieces of broken land to pay homage to the ancient city that was reclaimed and built by their ancestors.

Time flies and many things have changed.

But among the ruins of the city, the patterns carved on the rock walls and the sacrificial murals are telling of the existence of the Cyclops here.

They were born here, but were driven to the fifth realm, where life was so difficult that they were once on the verge of extinction.

It was their Aman ancestor who tenaciously survived, gradually transformed his bloodline in the cruel fifth realm, and opened up a new path for them, the Cyclops.

—A new way to refine blood and strengthen the body with impure alien power.

"call!"

A piece of fire crystal suddenly floated over.

Ah Man, who looked like a limestone mountain, was sitting behind Bingyan City, with a huge incense burner in front of him.

The incense burner did not emit any black smoke.

This level ten bloodline warrior from the fifth continent had his one eye tightly closed at this moment, as if he was in a trance.

After the fire crystal fell, it was stopped in the void by his power, and scenes inside appeared alternately.

The long-lived ancestor Ah Man suddenly opened his one eye.

He looked at the "Heart of Winter" that Pang Jian was stepping on in the picture, and saw the extremely cold fog gushing out from the icy crystal ball, covering the mountaintops of the Lieyang Sect.

"Ice Demon, a relic of the gods..."

The surprise in Ah Man's eyes grew stronger.

After a long, long time, the current leader of the Cyclops moved his mind slightly, and a brand new altar that could communicate with foreign gods appeared instantly.

Black smoke also emerged from the incense burner.

When the altar was born, Ah Man's blood moved slightly, and he followed a certain ancient ritual to connect with something that the altar could correspond to.

An icy and gloomy will and an extremely cold object appeared in Ah Man's heart almost at the same time.

That icy and chilling will is a being that was promoted to a god through the laws of extreme cold, and is now somewhere outside the Purgatory sky.

And that extremely cold object is currently in Purgatory.

It is the "Heart of Winter", which was left behind by the Ice Demon and is inside Pang Jian's body.

"At the beginning, my father communicated with the deceased ice demon. He extended my life by sacrificing many rare treasures. Another god won the war of gods, took over his territory and stars, and came to the outside of Purgatory."

"Pang Jian from the Sword Tower got the Ice Demon's Relic..."

Ah Man soon discovered the truth.

He did not communicate with the Ice Crystal Goddess whom he sensed, nor did he use secret techniques to communicate with the owner of the "Heart of Winter". Instead, he stared at the sky in a daze.

A few hours later, he gave a light shout, and two Cyclopses, each a hundred feet tall, strode over and knelt in front of him.

"Pass on my order. All members of my tribe must first protect their own lives. There is no need to risk death to kill the enemy. If you can avoid participating in the most intense battlefield, do not participate."

"Staying alive is our first prerequisite."

Ah Man gave the order.

The two level nine Cyclops looked at him in confusion.

"The real enemy of us Cyclops is not the human race in Purgatory, but the old dragon in the Dragon Cave. I agreed to join the battle with the Celestial Maiden in order to lead my people to attack the Dragon Cave. I want that old Thunder Dragon to die."

"It is only because the Dragon Cave has always been on the same side with the human race over the years that I allowed my people to cooperate with other tribes."

"Recently, the demon tribe's behavior has been a little strange, and the situation at the Dragon Cave is also unclear."

"Slow down, don't rush to contribute our combat power."

The level 10 Cyclops gave an explanation.

"Yes, sir."

The fifth level of Purgatory.

On the edge of the first continent, a perfect divine figure shrouded in blood-red smoke and with an extremely beautiful appearance was looking down at the extreme darkness below.

He has been here recently, releasing His profound divine thoughts that far surpass those of ordinary gods, searching for something in the darkness below.

While the alien warriors of the fifth realm were fighting fiercely with the human race, deciding their lives on the two continents of Qiantian and Xuanyou, His attention was focused on the lower part of the fifth realm of Purgatory.

“Wow!”

A fire crystal fell from the sky and stopped behind Him.

The scene in which Pang Jian and Lie Yi were fighting and Pang Jian continued to swing his sword to kill Lie Yi was clearly presented by the crystal.

In the blood-red smoke, there was no sadness or joy on his face, and his calm eyes were full of indifference.

It seemed as if even the collapse of the heavens and the destruction of the universe could not shake His heart.

The humanity of the other godhead became increasingly faint, so faint that when He recalled Pang Jian, he almost had no relevant memory.

As he gazed at the extreme darkness for a long time, and as his divine thoughts continued to penetrate deeper into the desolate, empty, and cold strange place, he realized that a god like him should have lost his humanity.

The path He pursues will shatter His humanity and ultimately destroy everything.

"grown ups."

The God of Fire Yanlie gathered his body and appeared out of thin air in the form of an ordinary human, hovering in the air behind Him.

"When will the filthy alien power continue to surge up and pour into the second realm?" Yan Lie asked respectfully.

He naturally knew all the details of the battle between Pang Jian and Lie Yi on Qiantian Continent. After all, Qi Xu obeyed him directly.

He sensed that the person before him had shifted his attention and was no longer concerned about the experience of one of the godheads in purgatory.

He thought it was a good thing.

Even if Pang Jian is the new world god of this era, he should not be allowed to invest too much energy in him, nor should he be given too much attention.

"It will take a few more years to prepare." Luo Hongyan spoke in an emotionless voice. After a pause, she said, "Three months later, a new position will be created. You can let Qi Xu take it."

Yan Lie nodded slightly.

“Before the filthy power surges up to the second realm, there will be one more spot. Tell those level nine warriors to work hard.” As Luo Hongyan spoke, he still looked towards the extreme darkness, and the divine consciousness in his pupils continued to be injected.

Yan Lie's eyes lit up slightly, and he said, "In this way, we are not much inferior to the human race in terms of the highest level of combat power."

"Go ahead."

Luo Hongyan signaled Yan Lie to leave, and the fire crystal stone that appeared here also turned into dust silently.

His gaze rests on the land of darkness.

He had been planning for so long to create a body that could carry his divine power. In addition to fulfilling the commission from the gods, he also wanted to go deeper into the fifth realm of purgatory, for the mysterious area before him.

The rock breaks the earth.

Pang Jian appeared in the territory of the Ice Clan, sitting on the huge altar, with the "Heart of Winter" floating above his head.

A group of Ice Clan members were looking at him and the "Heart of Winter" in full alert.

Everyone was inexplicably nervous.

"It's not the Goddess Han Jing. It's not Him who infiltrated the divine consciousness."

After a moment, Pang Jian shook his head and dispelled their worries before saying, "A level 10 Cyclops named Ah Man used the altar to communicate with the Ice Demon below and actually guided the Heart of Winter. The strange thing is that he did not keep the altar going and had no intention of communicating with me."

After returning, seven days have passed in a flash.

During these seven days, his name resounded throughout the Fifth Realm and the entire Purgatory.

In the sword order, news from Hu Yuanfei and news from senior brother Chen Weihuang came pouring in like snowflakes.

In the sword light symbol corresponding to the entire Purgatory, most of the information that Xu Wei released to the inner disciples of the entire Sword Tower was also related to him.

The fact that he killed the Yao clan's divine son in the Qiantian Continent, where the human race had evacuated, was even more sensational than the draw between Li Zhaotian and the Demon Scale clan's patriarch Li Bai.

His senior brothers and sisters were all asking him where he was, and wanted him to return to the Sword Tower, but he just stayed in the Rock Broken Land.

Chen Weihuang and Hu Yuanfei are not Li Zhaotian, and they cannot accurately lock his position just by communicating with him through sword orders.

So he stayed in the broken rock land on the pretext of learning sword skills.

Half an hour ago, he suddenly sensed the movement of the "Heart of Winter" and hurried to the frozen land.

He also mistakenly believed that it was the Ice Crystal Goddess who had rushed to the outer world of Purgatory who was ready to make a move and bewitched the bodies, minds and souls of the Ice Clan members, causing the Ice Clan to take the initiative to open the altar.

"Where should we go from here?"

The second elder, Bingyuan, looked at him eagerly and said, "We are in this broken land, unable to contact the outside world. If we just blindly enhance our bloodline, there will always be a bottleneck. Sir, we also need to communicate with others and exchange some special items to boost our strength."

They are an alien group and are destined to be disliked by the xenophobic human race.

The alien race might accept them, but at the current stage of confrontation between aliens and humans, after they come into contact with the aliens from the fifth realm, they will definitely be dragged into fighting with humans.

And Pang Jian is a human.

Ever since they stepped into the world of purgatory, they have been living in this place and gradually they are tired of the loneliness.

"After a while, the Ice Armor Eel Dragon will come over. When my status and position in the human race are higher, when my realm is higher, and I have a certain weight and say, I will find a way out for you."

Pang Jian made a promise.

At this moment, a golden bee insect flew out from the strange fog and instantly sensed something with him.

Through the golden bee worm released by the queen bee, he learned that the ninth-level ice-armored eel dragon had already digested Long Zhan's heart and flesh, its bloodline had been sublimated, and its combat power had skyrocketed.

The Ice-Armored Eel Dragon asked him if he could join the competition for the Demon God and strive for the seat of the Demon God.

The White Fox Demon King was also asking him about the current situation in Purgatory and whether she could come back.

"Wait a moment."

This sentence is said to the Queen Bee and also to the members of the Ice Clan.

Time flies.

After that, Pang Jian didn't go anywhere. He concentrated on learning the sword in the broken rock, feeling the mystery of the state of annihilation, and strengthening his body day by day.

He knew that if the battle between humans and the alien races from the fifth realm broke out again, it would involve the Immortal Realm.

The battlefield at that time was very likely to break out in the second realm, and the Sword Tower was located in the second realm.

The powerful aliens who are in awe of the Sword Tower will surely attack the Sword Tower in waves.

The super-large land in the second realm can withstand the battles between immortal realm and ninth-level strongmen because the level of its spiritual veins is much higher than that of the third realm.

By then, perhaps a large number of level nine bloodline warriors and some level nine demon kings will join forces to attack the sword tower.

“I hope this day will be as late as possible.”

“I wish I had more time to prepare.”

While practicing hard with this thought in mind, he received news from the Black Turtle, saying that the Rock Bear Demon King had killed the Ice Crystal Beast and was devouring its heart in his quest to advance on the path to becoming a Demon God.
