Chapter 172: Chapter 42

In the bottomless Abyss, there was a rumour that circulated.

It was said that there was a God with unusual power that snuck into the Abyss, carried out special measures to seize control of a small world, and was getting ready to drag the world out from the Abyss. If He were to drag the world out successfully, He would continue to do the same with each and every world in the Abyss, just like locusts consuming plants. If it continued, sooner or later, the entire Abyss would be emptied by Him.

Listening to such rumours, most of the Kings of Devils laughed in disdain. Maybe they thought the story-maker had something wrong in his head, that he couldn’t even make up a lie appropriately; or maybe they thought there was no way there could there be such an idiotic God in the world that thought He wouldn’t die fast enough; or maybe they thought it was an entertaining story and a humorous joke. Of course, there were some that lacked a sense of humour and spat, “Fuck that b*tch, how dare fool your master,” and swung his axe and chopped the messenger into pieces. The Abyss was so huge, such situations may have happened.

There were also some Kings of Devils that thought weakness lends wing to rumours, so there must have been a reason that there derived such rumours. Hence, they sent out a clone to certify if the incidents in the rumors were true.

Although the Abyss was huge, and most of the Kings of Devils worked to no avail, some were able to find Sui Xiong.

Most of them immediately raged with anger and launched ferocious attacks, but some were more careful or treacherous and retreated to discuss in private about what to do.

“There is something wrong.” From a ball of wriggling flesh and blood, came a voice that sounded like bones grinding. It was the famous “King of the 666th Floor of the Abyss,” also known as “The Mountain of Flesh and Blood.”

Most of the Kings of Abyss had no names, or should say that they had hidden their name carefully, to not let anyone know. Unlike Gods, to the Kings of Devil that appeared to be “chaotic,” their names had unusual meanings. Once an expert knew their names, they could take various measures to restrain them. In the Abyss that was chaotic and dangerous; there was no difference between that and taking a vital blow.

Hence, the Kings of Abyss mostly only had titles.

They were normally addressed as King of whichever floor in the Abyss, plus a title that could reflect its characteristics.

Many people looked into the meaning of the floors. If a mage was willing to study intensively for Abyss studies, he could find at least ten books that collected theses about research on the meaning of Kings of the Abyss’s floors. But in actual fact, they were meaningless. Even the Kings of Abyss themselves didn’t look into the meanings of floors.

To them, the one and only value of floors was to mark the difference between each other.

The ruler of first floor in the Abyss, a skeleton monster that was referred as “Dungeon Guardian,” was not necessarily stronger than the Mountain of Flesh and Blood from the 666th floor; The ruler on the 304th floor, a huge cannibal plant also known as “Flower of The Century,” was not necessarily stronger or weaker than anyone; even the rest like “King of Slime,””Frost Giant,””Goddess of Fresh Blood,””World Devourer,”…

Amongst the Kings of Abyss that were powerful enough to use the level in their title, their strength and power were never that clear-cut.

But these were not related to Sui Xiong. Oh wait; then it was related.

The noise of bones knocking into each other, along with a strong will, transmitted the words, “Take down that bastard. We can’t stand such provocation!”

The leaves rustled as a sharp laugh was hidden within, saying, “Be careful, it might be a trap.”

With the squishy sound of something soft and slimy, mixed with the mumble of the King of Slime, was heard, “Whose trap is it? Who would be interested in our Abyss?”

“The one on the Wheel of Order?” There was a deep voice from below the ground that was covered with snow and frost.

“Doesn’t look like His doings,” The huge skeleton said, abd vetoed the inference.

“Would it be… That person?” The Giant hidden below the snow continued to guess.

All the powerful Kings of Abyss kept quiet. After a long while, the Goddess of Fresh Blood, who shared a similar figure to a human, the ruler of the 15th floor of the Abyss, departed towards the world that was in vigorous war.

Over there, the fight between a huge earthworm called “Earthly Mad Dragon” and Sui Xiong plunged the world into complete chaos. The immortal monster who was ruling a huge world was also known also the Master of the 110th floor of the Abyss. Its body was so humongous that it surrounded the world that belonged to Sui Xiong. At the same time, Sui Xiong too turned into a huge jellyfish that engulfed the entire world while he waved his tentacles to engage in a fierce battle.

The battle was earth-shattering. At least another five or six Abyss worlds that were involved were wiped out. There were countless devils that were killed in the repercussions of the battle.

Neither party carried out any damaging trick that was extremely powerful, but the body that looked soft and squishy contained power that was beyond imagination. Every time they collided, a loud thundering noise surged ferociously in the Abyss.

Any devil that was slightly weaker wouldn’t be able to stand against the repercussions of the surging power, and there was only one in a million that could charge against it. Even though there were one or two that dashed all the way to the front, among the ferocious battle, they couldn’t intervene at all.

The Goddess of Fresh Blood gazed at the battle and carefully evaluated both parties’ strengths and weaknesses.

For combat power, the huge jellyfish that wasn’t compatible with the Abyss was obviously much stronger. If the offending power from both parties was segregated into ten portions, there were at least seven that belonged to him while the huge earthworm only took up three.

But the huge earthworm was widely known for its immortality. It hardly forgot injuries, and possessed an unimaginable recovery power. Even when it was chopped into two, it would heal the moment the blade was withdrawn from its body, leaving an extremely light scar. Even the scar would stay for a very short period of time before it vanished.

So, even if the huge jellyfish was at advantage, he couldn’t do much to it. Both parties were locked in a stalemate.

As everyone knew, stalemate was a situation most beneficial to the huge earthworm. Many strong and powerful Kings of Devil used up all their strength in such situation. They looked as though they were on winning streaks, and ended up as the huge earthworm’s food.

“Maybe today, there will be another one!” Looking at the huge earthworm that was constantly injured but not giving up, a smile crept across the face of the King of Abyss; it which changed into human form multiple times to travel around the world, that strolled along reeking blood and disaster.

But, it got happy too early!

Sui Xiong naturally noticed the ridiculous healing power of the huge earthworm, but he didn’t have any solution in that instance.

He tried to turn his tentacles into sharp blades and cut open countless wounds. But the very moment the blade was withdrawn from its body, it would heal and leave no scar.

He tried flame, lighting and ice; every one of those could cause huge damage to his enemy, but even the lighting that hit through its body was healed in little time. Not only would its flesh and blood grow back; the burn mark would disappear quickly.

He also tried poison, but it was totally useless. He wondered if the huge earthworm was made of flesh and blood, as it was totally immune to poison.

What should I do?

He rolled up his tentacles and beat up the strange monster that couldn’t be killed brutally when he was vexed.

After a while, he had an idea. He finally figured out a way.

“Bloody bastard, take my order spear!”

He spat in a jellyfish style Cantonese version to extend his power. Sui Xiong tried his best to extract the power of order and transform it into a shiny long spear.

The long spear was a crystallization of the power of order. Originally was colorless. But once it appeared in the space filled with chaotic energy in the Abyss, it collided vigorously and exploded with infinite light and heat. In that instance, it became a weapon that seemed to be crystallized by endless rays of light.

Sui Xiong of course couldn’t just watch the painstaking weapon that he made melt in the Abyss so quickly. He quickly carried it and dashed towards the huge earthworm’s head, then he thrust it in brutally.

Pfft. The long spear of order that was at least a mountain wide struck deep into the body of Earthly Mad Dragon. Almost the entire spear sank into its body.

The huge earthworm that wasn’t bothered by any sort of attack was suddenly stunned and stopped moving as though it was stonified.

“Hoo… hoo… you should die now!” That one attack made Sui Xiong extremely exhausted. That very moment, he could only pant and curse the other opponent verbally.

In the twinkle of an eye, the huge earthworm that could surround the world gave out a terrifying shriek that would frighten the dead. Then, it turned around and fled towards the the depths of the chaos, and never turned back.

Sui Xiong was surprised. He didn’t expect such an attack wouldn’t knock it down. But he thought carefully. To be able to chase it away was a satisfactory outcome.

After all, he didn’t intend to start a slaughter party in the Abyss, but to run away with his spoils of war!

So, he took a short break and continued to drag the world that got bigger unexpectedly one battle after another. It swallowed the flesh and blood of countless devils and shattered pieces of many miniature worlds. He continued along the route that was drawn and went forward.

Until he left entirely with the world, the Goddess of Fresh Blood walked out and stood at the battlefield where the huge jellyfish and the huge earthworm were fighting earlier. She looked carefully and pondered.

After a long while, the King of Abyss which looked no different than a human woman who dressed revealingly turned around and walked into the depth of the Abyss. She vanished into thin air in the blink of an eye.

“What does it mean?” Amongst a bunch of Kings of Abyss that were observing the battlefield from afar, a huge bee with human face was asking.

“I have no idea, but its attitude was clear.” Giant Frost who was hidden underground was deep in thought. “Maybe we shouldn’t intervene…”

“It’s your own business if you do not want to intervene, but I have to go for war and kill him,” The Mountain of Flesh and Blood said emotionlessly. “No matter the chaos, as a King, I can’t just let this bastard run free.”

“Are you sure you can fight against it?” The huge cannibal plant asked.

“Count me in then,” The skeleton who was bigger than a few worlds said.

“We will find more assistance,” the strange slime said. “The bastard is still far away from the top of the Abyss anyway. Ee have more than enough time.”

Light shadows flickered and disappeared one after another, like bubbles in water.

Sui Xiong resumed his journey while dragging the world. At that very moment, he had a bad feeling…
