Chapter 1715: Chapter 1713: Between the Abysses
"Whether it was Pope or Eugenes, they both paid a great price in learning the Demon Book.
Both their bodily foundation and soul attributes changed because of the Demon Book.
Eugenes established the Church of Cannibalism within his body, united with the freely extendable Black Flesh Mountain, and even constructed a unique inner world. His future development is immeasurable... he is bound to surpass M.O. and achieve greater accomplishments.
Pope, on the other hand, connected to an evil star completely isolated outside the main world, adding a new attribute to his soul’s plane.
He might eventually completely control this rejected evil star and gather it into the star brain.
The Count wants to learn the Demon Book, and he is bound to experience a different process. With his former Blood Brew physique, he definitely couldn’t endure it... but now it’s entirely different.
Whether it is the Nether Blood physique or the Holy Sword attributes contained within, they will definitely allow the Count to slowly contend with the Demon Book, seek a balance point, and begin to master it.
I wonder how the Count, who breaks out from the blood sphere, will appear.
I am a little anticipative~"
Since it is confirmed that there is no major issue with the Count, one can leave rest assured.
As Han Dong stepped out of the Taoist Temple.
He suddenly caught sight of a young man in a crow robe, human in appearance, standing under the tree... but upon closer inspection, there was no one under the tree.
"What just happened? Wasn’t that me?"
Due to his recognition of the self,
Han Dong appeared in the consciousness space as a "Faceless One," strikingly contrasting with the human he had just glimpsed.
"There is no mistaking it, the individual momentarily appearing under the tree should hold some special significance... perhaps related to the understanding of Faceless, and possibly reaching deeper layers.
Or perhaps, the ’human self’ just glimpsed is related to my current physical changes.
After all, the formation of the previous two "Mythical Puzzles" brought significant impact and changes to this consciousness space symbolizing ’system.’
The Mythical Puzzle corresponding to Faceless might bring an unconventional change to the consciousness space."
Han Dong ceased the meaningless thoughts, and his consciousness returned to the body.
"Sally, let’s go~ We are going to find Green."
Just as Han Dong mentioned the name "Green."
The Tingdaros’s Hunting Dog, appearing docile, lying beside Sally’s feet, immediately raised its head.
Through the vibration of its teeth and tongue, it emitted strange sounds:
"Are you looking for the Master? Follow me... the Master is likely undergoing special abyss therapy at the Spore Abyss."
Due to the bribes of food, this hunting dog became exceptionally obedient, especially to the direct commands from Sally.
Thus,
the two followed the hunting dog, walking in the corridor of the Chaos Court.
The corridor of the King’s Court is constructed in a closed style,
the walls made from Chaos Stone are filled with numerous small and large holes, with corresponding ancient numbers inscribed above, which Han Dong could not comprehend.
Every hole corresponds to a distinct Mad Abyss (Master Abyss, Sub Abyss, Branch Abyss, or Independent Abyss, etc.).
Out of curiosity, Han Dong asked along the way: "What does abyss therapy mean?"
"The Master’s ’Abyss Structure’ requires regular maintenance and upkeep, which can only be done at the Center of Chaos.
This time, the Master seems to have received injuries of different types, affecting both the exterior and interior, requiring substantial chaos essence to repair.
The Master’s physique is unique; looking across the Demon World, a second does not exist and is destined to become the ruler of this chaos.
Thus, no careless maintenance and care can be afforded!"
When talking about Green, the hunting dog’s eyes were full of admiration.
After a few turns,
the dog jumped directly into a small hole in the passage wall, the other side of which was filled with ’Chaos Spores’ resembling fungi, each approximately human-sized, floating up between the abyss.
This formation is due to the extremely high chaos concentration and the current abyss’s characteristics.
"The Master is at the very bottom, go ahead!
I have not yet adapted to such a high concentration of chaos environment, so I won’t go down~ Thanks again for the exquisite delicacy you gave me."
The hunting dog appeared very polite, and after expressing gratitude by licking the lamb leg, it used a self-devouring method to teleport out of the area.
Han Dong touched the floating chaos fungi in the abyss.
"Hmm? This isn’t just about a high concentration; these fungi possess a remarkably intricate inner structure of tangible chaos... Compared to other abysses, there’s a lively exuberance here.
Indeed.
Each abyss corresponding to this Chaos Star possesses different attributes and traits.
This vibrant abyss before us is very suitable for Green to cultivate, let’s go down and take a look."
During the continuous descent,
the density of Chaos Spores consistently increased, and sometimes they would collide with the surface of the spores, and without caution, chaos could envelop... however, Han Dong’s body flowed through the spores like a slime, completely unaffected.
When the two reached the lower level of the abyss, they were immediately stunned by the sight before them.
Standing at the bottom was a soft-bodied, tendril-shaped, World Tree-like Fungus Hub,
rich chaotic substance, after being absorbed by it, burgeoned fungi spores from the branches through the process of ’blooming and fruiting.’
Once mature, they depart from the body and float upwards.
Green’s body was melded into the middle of the tree, his entire body intertwined with tentacles from the tree trunk, delivering pure, vibrant energy to Green’s body.
Delicate mushroom roots were also performing maintenance and upkeep for Green’s "Abyss Body."
"Nicholas, you’ve recovered so quickly?" Green seemed surprised, expecting Han Dong to lie in the bathroom for at least a month.
"Barely mobile... All thanks to Sally’s help.
We just came to check on your condition,
because I don’t quite recall my final experience in the Chaos Prison and had to confirm your state face-to-face; otherwise, it feels quite uncomfortable."
"As long as I am in the Center of Chaos, even if truly killed, I can revive, just a minor injury... Speaking of which, such a pure bodily collision is thrilling.
Let’s do it again next time~"
Though his body’s upkeep wasn’t complete,
Green forcefully broke free from the binding roots, pulling the tendrils out of his body, forcibly interrupting the process.
"My body is almost done, since you are mobile, I don’t need to waste time here.
I’ll first take you to enjoy a top-tier feast in the King’s Court.
Then we’ll descend along the Master Abyss for a long free-fall, where you can thoroughly enjoy the Abyss Party... It’s been delayed for half a year, and given your current state, you’re bound to perfectly integrate with the party.
Sally, come along with us, and if you can’t hold out along the way, you can exit anytime."
