Chapter 36: The Past of the Abyss
A young boy walks alone on a crimson wasteland that seems to have no end.
The wasteland was unusually desolate, with no life in sight, no wind, no water, the smell of sulfur flowing everywhere in the air, and the air was suffocating.
In the distance, there stood several towering volcanoes, from which lava erupted from time to time, like the earth venting its anger that had been stored for hundreds of millions of years to the sky, and huge pillars of flame rushed towards the dim sky dome, as if to burn through the sky.
The wasteland was filled with chaos and carnage, and everywhere the little boy walked, there was blinding blood and flames, and countless twisted races shouted frantically, fighting each other.
Chaos is the only order here, there is no life, no morality, no law, killing and death are the only language.
This is the Endless Abyss, the plane of demonic domination, the land of sin that the light abhors, and no creature of order dares to step into this forbidden area of life.
The little boy who walked in this wasteland was delicate, holding a black box tightly in his arms, pursing his lips, like a trembling young beast, walking in the raves of savages.
Many of the chaotic races roaming the shallow depths of the Endless Abyss noticed the presence of a delicious breath of life, and they followed the little boy to the side of him, looking at the misguided lamb with greed and malice.
But the faint aura of the black box in the little boy's arms made them, who had never known what fear was, felt inexplicably afraid, and hesitated to move forward.
In this way, under the gaze of many ill-intentioned eyes, the little boy walked through most of the wasteland without danger.
However, after walking for so long, without a sip of water, and resisting the influence of the pervasive negative breath of the abyss, the little boy was tired after all, he gasped, stumbled under his feet, and fell to the ground.
There was a commotion among the many abyssal creatures that followed behind them, and they keenly realized that this human was no longer good.
The fear of the unknown vanished in the face of greed, a tall four-legged dark creature approached the little boy, rubbed the little boy's body with his nose, and seeing that the little boy did not move, the dark creature's pupils radiated a greedy light, opened its mouth full of sharp teeth, and bit the little boy's neck.
However, at this moment, a sword light slashed straight down, splitting off the head of the giant beast, black blood gushing out from its neck like a spring, and its tall body fell to the ground with a bang.
A young man stood in front of the little boy with a large sword as high as one in both hands, staring at the abyssal creatures around him with a wary expression, his gaze seemed to have some invisible power, and the creature that the young man was watching actually took a step back timidly.
That four-legged beast was already a rare and powerful abyssal creature in this wasteland of the Endless Demon Abyss, and it was so easily slashed by a human.
However, in the abyss, death is commonplace, these creatures living in the shallow layer of the endless demon abyss, the fear of death is far less intense than the desire, seeing that the boy is only one person, many creatures began to show fierce light again, open their bloody mouths, and surrounded the young man with the sword.
The young man's face was a little pale, obviously it was the first time he had encountered so many enemies, but there was a little more excitement in his eyes, and the hand holding the sword was raised high.
Just when the beasts were approaching step by step, a middle-aged man walked behind the sword-wielding young man, the middle-aged man was wearing a monotonous robe, and his steps seemed to be slow, but after taking a step, his body had already come to dozens of meters away, and ordinary people could not observe his movements at all.
It took less than a few seconds for him to reach the sword-wielding boy.
"That's enough, Siegfried, that's the end of today's training. The middle-aged man's voice was very light, but there was an irresistible majesty, he waved his hand lightly, and the young man with the sword put down the sword, his face was a little dissatisfied. But he still obeyed the order and quietly retreated behind the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man looked around at the beast tide, his eyes were calm and calm, only to see him gently wave his hand, and a slender sword that seemed to be made of crystal and shining appeared in his hand.
The middle-aged man took a step forward, and before anyone arrived, the sword had already come out, and the crystal long sword shook out the crystal brilliance of the sky, and in an instant, it had already enveloped the bodies of all the abyssal creatures in the field.
The abyssal beasts roared, but before they could take a few steps, the crystal light froze them all, turned them into sculptures, and then shattered.
Looking at the crystals of the splinters all over the ground, the sword-wielding boy Qi Gefei swallowed his saliva, although he had witnessed the power of the "Morning Dawn" in the teacher's hand more than once, but every time the sword was released, the young man's heart was shocked, and then his heart was surging.
"Teacher, what should you do with this little guy?" Ziegfei asked cautiously, gesturing to the unconscious little boy on the ground.
"Take him back. The middle-aged man said, turning and leaving, Siegfried took back his sword and walked over to carry the little boy on his back. With a heavy sword on his body, the boy carried the little boy on his back and walked in the abyss without any difficulty.
"Poor little fellow, how did you come to such a place as the Abyss?" muttered the boy, "are you the subject of some unscrupulous arcanist's experiments?, or are you the illegitimate son of some Abyssal Archdemon, abandoned by your father or mother, and in any case, you seem to be worse than me." ”
A black box slipped from the boy's arms and fell to the ground.
Sieg flew for a moment, and he noticed that even when he was unconscious, the little guy was still clinging to the black box.
What's inside?
"Could it be something of value that makes this little fellow so valued. The boy looked curiously at the black box on the ground, and reached out to slowly open it.
A gap peeks out of the black box.
A golden light shone through the cracks, like a lighthouse in the darkness, and an ancient and majestic aura overflowed, as if some powerful being had opened its eyes.
The middle-aged man felt this unprecedented aura, his face changed greatly, Huo Ran turned around, and shouted, "Close that thing." ”
However, just as he finished speaking, a golden light erupted from the crack in the box, turning into a golden pillar of light and rushing into the sky.
The next moment, the entire wasteland trembled violently, countless golden lightning bolts appeared in the dim sky, the volcano roared, the surging magma erupted with black smoke, the crimson plain cracked one after another, and white steam drilled out from under the ground, spitting wildly.
Countless creatures on the wasteland ran in panic, and many dark creatures stared at the sky with frightened eyes, it was not the sky they were familiar with, the sky of the abyss had turned into a dazzling gold.
Countless grasses and flowers bloomed abruptly, swaying with the breath of life, and streams flowed happily on the plains, driving away the ubiquitous aura of darkness, and the previous scene of hell suddenly became heaven.
Seeing such an amazing beauty, the middle-aged man was not surprised and excited, but his face sank like water.
Looking at this scene, Siegfried's mouth was wide open, at a loss.
The middle-aged man closed the box, lifted Siegfried and the little boy, and in the blink of an eye, he had swept a hundred meters away, and ran quickly out of the wasteland.
The sky of the wasteland suddenly darkened, and countless red dark clouds covered the sky again, and there was an earth-shattering roar faintly from the dark clouds, and countless creatures in the wasteland trembled with fear when they heard this roar.
A tall figure like a mountain appeared in the air, cruising in the red clouds, the huge figure was covered by thick clouds, and it was impossible to see its true face, only a faint glimpse of the size through the light of lightning.
A golden electric light flashed, Siegfei turned his head, saw the outline of the huge creature floating in the sky, and couldn't help but gasp, the behemoth's body was more than a thousand meters, taller than Olympia City.
The behemoth shook its body, and countless dark red flames rushed to the earth, destroying the grass, flowers, and rivers that had just appeared, and pulling the wasteland back into chaos and darkness.
"What's that?" Siegfried asked the teacher in shock.
The middle-aged man's face was gloomy, and he said: "If I guessed correctly, it is one of the seven demon kings of the abyss, the first layer lord of the abyss----- Leviathan, according to legend, this guy is violent and easy to kill, and will devour all life he sees." It is the 'scavenger' of the outer layers of the abyss, specializing in eating all powerful beings who have strayed into the endless abyss as food, even the gods. ”
After patrolling around, it was not until the entire wasteland was submerged in flames that the Leviathan in the sky found that there was no abnormality, and then he shook his huge body and flew away from the wasteland, disappearing from the sight of the master and apprentice.
Looking at the wasteland that had turned into purgatory again, Siegfried couldn't help but be afraid for a while, but fortunately, he only opened the box a little just now, if the whole box was opened... The consequences may be unimaginable.
"What just happened?"
The middle-aged man stopped his galloping pace, pondered for a moment, and said: "Just now, a powerful force spread to the wasteland, and distorted the plane laws in this area of the abyss, Leviathan sensed this power that did not belong to the Endless Demon Abyss, so coming here, for an existence like it, maintaining the balance of the plane laws is already an instinct. ”
"Teacher, what the hell is this little guy? He actually has something that even the Abyss Demon King can alarm. Siegfried looked back at the little boy behind him and asked suspiciously.
"I don't know. The middle-aged man put away the black box, and his tone was a little strange, "Anyway, the top priority now is to bring him back to the Icadia continent." ”
"Well, it's busy again. Siegfried sighed, "What's your name, little one?"
He just asked casually, not expecting the unconscious little creature to answer.
To his surprise, a faint voice came to his ears clearly, it was very immature, but it was as resolute as grass growing in a crack in a stone.
"Constantine Eliotgard. ”
