Chapter 278: The Abyss
"What deal?"
"Don't you want to go to the abyss, I can take you there." Ness smiled and looked at Leon.
"What about the conditions."
"Help me kill someone."
Leon and Ness talked for a long time, and after some haggling, the two finally made a deal, and the next thing to do was to head to the abyss.
"Didn't you say that human blood was used to depict the space formation?" Watching Ness carve the formation with the blood of the half-dead white deer on the cleared flat ground, Leon couldn't help but ask.
"Who told you?" Niss didn't look back, she was still squatting there, revealing her perfect hip curve, and Leon didn't dare to look at her, afraid that she would rush up in an excited way.
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not, as long as there is an intelligent life, its blood can be used to build the gate of the abyss." Ness explained.
After a while, Ness stood up, checked her success again, nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Leon: "Okay, as long as you use the power of space to activate this formation, you can hit the Abyss Gate." ”
"Then activate it."
"Yes, activate." Ness gestured to the circle on the ground.
"You're asking me to activate?"
"Otherwise, I don't have the power of space."
"......" Li Ang was a little painful, he thought it was all done, but it turned out to be stuck again, how could he have any spatial power, he would just have a spatial skill.
"You don't know how to use the power of space, do you?"
"No, no one taught me." Leon spread his hands.
Ness shook the whip in her hand, she wanted to hit someone.
The door to the abyss was finally opened smoothly, but it wasn't that Leon learned how to use the power of space, this thing belonged to a high-end power, and he really couldn't learn it for a while.
But Li Ang can open it, borrow the power of the empty air, and the problem will be solved, by the way, he told the empty space a few words, and with the improvement of his strength, the distance of using the contract to communicate has also been greatly improved.
A burst of bright silver brilliance flashed, and Leon and Succubus Niss on the forest clearing had disappeared without a trace, and the mysterious lines on the ground gradually disappeared from the mysterious brilliance flowing on them, gradually disappearing into nothingness.
……
Leon had imagined many kinds of abysses, including a world full of flames, a barren world, and even a world covered with flesh and blood, but he never imagined that the abyss would be such a scene.
Today was a sunny day, and a huge sun hung obliquely in the air, emitting an orange glow, showing a little listlessness.
I don't know if the sky is like this or under the influence of the sun, showing a faint orange color, giving people a warm feeling, but in fact, the temperature here is terriblely low, it has to be minus forty or fifty degrees, and the orange sun can't bring the slightest warmth.
Directly above the sky, there was an arc-shaped shadow, like a rock embedded in the air, and above the arc-shaped shadow, there were two or three similar stones, which were far away and could not be seen.
Leon was halfway up a snow-capped mountain, and as far as the eye could see, it was a barren place, with nothing but stones, not even a single grass, let alone anything else.
What hurt Leon the most was that the succubus Niss wasn't even nearby, and I don't know if there was a teleportation problem, or if he left himself and ran away, anyway, he didn't see Niss when he appeared here.
Finding a random direction, Li Angshu spread his wings and flew forward.
The abyss is not really grassless, at least this way flew over, and after being far away from the snowy mountains, sparse grass appeared, which was not much different from the grass on the earth.
There are also a few low shrubs, but they are mostly skinny and have few leaves.
After flying for a while, Li Ang finally saw a few strange creatures that looked like wolves, the whole was very similar to wolves, and there were many differences in details, but it was not good to say the specifics, it was really difficult to summarize, because each one was different.
The ones with many legs, the ones with many tails, or something less, are strangely shaped, and I want to say whether they are sick or not, but one of them is faster than the other, and they look very energetic.
After observing for a while, Leon continued to fly forward, and after some time, when the orange sun was about to set on the horizon, Leon finally saw the outline of a small village.
The village is really small, there are a dozen wooden houses in total, and each house is also built crookedly, as if it will collapse at any time, just scattered randomly on the wasteland, and a simple wooden fence is surrounded by a fence outside.
The tall figure of the demon Li Ang instantly attracted the attention of several chatting demons at the entrance of the village, and they stood there one by one at a loss, with a frightened look on their faces.
"Big~big~Lord, you~you~what do you have~ what do you command?" One of the older demons trembled and moved a few steps and came to Li Ang, not daring to look up at him at all, his whole body trembled like chaff, and he stammered when he spoke, and he didn't know if it was because he was scared.
Leon's outstretched hand hesitated for a moment and then retracted it, he couldn't connect the ragged and trembling demons in front of him with evil destruction.
They are more like weak people who are struggling to survive, although they have a hideous appearance, but their hearts are extremely weak.
"Are there any big cities around here?"
As soon as Li Ang spoke, with a continuous pop, several demons in front of him all fell to their knees, lying on the ground one by one and shaking constantly.
What did I say? As for being afraid of this? Leon couldn't figure it out at all.
"Big~Big~ Lord atonement, please put away the coercion, I~ We really can't bear it!" It was still the eldest demon, lying on the ground and talking hard, as for how his face was, he couldn't see it, only the earth knew, and the sky didn't know.
After a while, Li Ang completely restrained his breath, this demon's body was already extremely domineering, plus he was not completely familiar with it, he was usually a little better, as soon as he spoke, his breath was naturally exposed, no wonder these weak demons couldn't bear it.
After slowly getting familiar with this demonic body, the powerful power can be retracted freely, and the communication with these down-and-out demons is much smoother, and Li Ang has found a lot of information from their mouths, whether it is useful or not, anyway, he no longer knows anything about this world that belongs to the devil.
As for these down-and-out demons, Leon couldn't afford to embarrass them at all, the life they lived was simply miserable, similar to the life of ordinary people when the end of the earth had just come, there was really a meal and a meal, they were simply sorry for the title of demon.
Their miserable situation also shows from the side that this abyssal world is indeed very barren and very scarce in resources.
Miraculously, in this small village, where there is generally not enough to eat, Leon actually found a very old-looking book, written on an unknown leather.
The demon's writing is naturally different from that of humans, but Leon can actually understand it, which may have something to do with his demonic body, which he has never understood its origin.
What is recorded in the book is not anything very important, let alone a treasure map or something, but it makes Li Ang very surprised, because what is recorded on it is some physics common sense, judging from the format of its writing, it is very similar to a middle school textbook, is this a textbook?
It is said that this book is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation in this village, and its age can no longer be verified, anyway, it is very old, so old that no demon can understand the words on the book now, and this book has been passed down for I don't know how many generations.
"Since you can't understand it, how do you know it's a treasure?"
"This~~~" Li Ang's words confused the old demon, this is handed down by the ancestors, the ancestors said that this is a treasure, so isn't it a treasure.
Li Ang didn't dwell on this question anymore, and returned the book to them after reading it, but he had some faint guesses in his heart.
After chatting for a while, it was already dark, and Li Ang simply spent the night in this small village.
After saying nothing for the night, and the next day after saying goodbye to these down-and-out demons, Leon set off for what they called Boulder City.
Boulder City is the closest city to here, and it is also the only city within a radius of 1,000 kilometers, most of the demons in this area live in Boulder City, and only a few demons are scattered in the form of villages or tribes across this vast area.
Said to be the closest, in fact, the distance is also seven or eight hundred kilometers, Li Ang walked for a whole day, he didn't choose to fly, because the target is too big to fly, the ghost knows what he will encounter, and the Void Demon may not be very good at flying, and the flying is not as fast as it is.
When night fell, Leon finally came to the outskirts of Boulder City, and along the way, he could be regarded as having a preliminary understanding of the barrenness of the abyss.
Barren doesn't mean barren, and along the way, most of it is grassland, with the occasional small grove, but more of it is shrubland.
Therefore, the abyss is actually not short of plants, it is not a desert Gobi with nothing, but almost all plants contain a special toxin, which cannot be eaten, with the physique of Li Ang's seventh-level void demon, his whole body hurts to death, not to mention other demons or abyss creatures, whether they can survive is a big problem.
So the abyss is barren, because the food chain is broken from the base, and if there are no plants to provide food for the herbivores, the herbivores will become extinct and extinct, and the herbivores will be extinct, and the carnivores will be finished, and the whole food chain will collapse.
However, there are still creatures living in the abyss, and there are all kinds of demonic lives, obviously the food chain has not completely collapsed, there are still plants that can eat, and there are creatures that can ignore plant toxins, or that sentence, life is very tenacious.
