It had been a whole month since Vincent entered the toxic abyss. His figure was constantly moving back and forth between the mountain walls of the abyss, without a moment’s rest.
At this moment, Vincent was already very thin. This was because the toxic abyss could not be considered a world. There was nothing edible there at all!
The monsters in the abyss all relied on breathing poisonous green gas and devouring their companions to survive. However, Vincent could neither absorb the poisonous gas nor could he eat the poisonous corpses that emitted a foul stench.
Vincent could only rely on the food and fresh water that he carried on his body. He could barely sustain himself. The battle that he fought without sleep or rest had consumed too much of his energy. Therefore, it only took him a month before he became extremely miserable.
However, this month was also an extraordinary harvest for Vincent. He had already successfully advanced from a level 11 creature to a level 13 creature!
The process of climbing the mountain wall was also very fruitful. At the moment, from where Vincent was, he could already see the exit when he raised his head. It was emitting a faint light. He had already traveled more than half of the abyss.
The poisonous monsters around him had also reached level ten. Vincent’s soul army was no longer able to form a reliable advance. Vincent could only deal damage by himself.
“Flame Extinguishing Gods!”
Vincent rode on the back of the flying monster. He spread countless thin lines of flames and stuck them to the surrounding mountain walls like a spider web. They turned into intense flames that filled the sky soon after.
Under the rising flames, a level ten poisonous monster was instantly burnt into ashes. Its ashes filled the sky. It did not even have a chance to breathe.
“Spirit binding!”
Vincent seized the moment when all the monsters were dead and were about to turn into ashes. He hurriedly restrained the psionic power in their bodies. This way, he could save a trip to the bottom of the mountain.
However, this method could not be used all the time. After casting the Flame Extinguishing Gods, Vincent controlled the flying monsters to land on a huge rock that was protruding from the mountain wall.
After rolling onto the huge rock, Vincent struggled to untie the bandage on his back. He laid on the rock and panted heavily.
The crystal that Vincent was carrying became heavier and heavier the further it was from the bottom. This caused Vincent to consume nearly ten times his psionic power in order to maintain flight and battle. Hence, every time he cast the Flame Extinguishing Gods, it was equivalent to draining him dry once!
“Phew!”
Vincent took a deep breath and turned his head to look at the crystal beside him. At that moment, he could basically confirm that this was the key that was left behind for observation.
According to the growth rate of the weight of the crystal, Vincent believed that he could stay at the top of the abyss, but it would require tens of times more time and energy!
He could do it, but he would have to pay a great price. It was the favorite trick of the Protoss!
“Since you want to play, I’ll show you the perseverance of the Human Race!” said Vincent through his gritted teeth. He looked at the cave entrance that was flashing with a faint light in the sky.
After resting for a while, Vincent sat up and looked at the green light clusters floating on the surrounding mountain walls. He was not in a hurry to absorb them, because he was waiting for the psionic power in his body to reach its peak.
Only when his psionic power was full could these blobs of light that were filled with psionic power be brought into full play!
“Withdraw!”
Just as the psionic power in Vincent’s body reached its peak, he immediately sucked the green blobs of light into his body. At the same time, his psionic power limit was also rapidly expanding.
“Buzz!”
The world trembled. Vincent once again completed his advancement and became a level 14 creature!
After feeling the abundant energy in his body, Vincent instantly used an infinite amount of strength. He stood up, carried the crystal on his back, jumped onto the back of the flying monster, and flew up again.
At the same time, the soul army that had stopped on the mountain wall also began to climb up.
Although these monsters’ souls were no longer able to help Vincent in terms of strength, they could still act as scouts to help Vincent guard the base. They could help him monitor the highly toxic monsters on the mountain wall and prevent them from sneaking down.
After Vincent climbed another hundred meters, the figures of highly toxic monsters appeared in front of him once again. Moreover, they were all gigantic level 11 creatures with even more ferocious faces!
Vincent could not help but feel a sense of powerlessness when he saw the endless highly toxic monsters in front of him. He took out a strangely shaped cup from his body.
The Cup of Fate was a magic treasure that had fallen from Gajero. After fusing with Gajero’s arm, it had been upgraded.
Vincent sighed, “It’s a pity that these monsters don’t even have souls. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have to work so hard!”
During the past month, Vincent had used the Cup of Fate to try to extract the souls of the poisonous monsters. However, the results once again proved that these monsters indeed did not have souls!
At that moment, Vincent took out the Cup of Fate again. It was nothing more than to vent the suppressed emotions in his heart. After all, he had to get out of the poisonous abyss. He had to kill all the poisonous monsters in front of him!
His initial goal had always been unchanging. However, the negative emotions that had arisen along the way had to be resolved in time. Only then could he use his willpower to prove that there was nothing he could not do when the Protoss were not optimistic about him!
All of a sudden, a giant golden hand extended from the sky, illuminating the mountain wall above. Countless larger poisonous monsters laid on the stone wall, howling in pain. It was as if they were extremely afraid of the golden light on the giant hand.
Vincent wanted to dodge, but he realized that he could not move. The situation made him instantly think that it must be the Protoss’s doing!
The golden hand landed in front of Vincent. It took the Cup of Fate from his hand, and quickly withdrew into the sky.
Vincent only regained his ability to move when the golden hand had completely disappeared into the sky above the abyss. He looked up at the exit above and cursed angrily, “You’re too f*cking shameless! Why did you steal my magic treasure?”
Unfortunately, Vincent did not get an answer to his question.
Therefore, Vincent could only vent his anger on the poisonous monsters on the surrounding mountain walls!
“Kill!”
Vincent jumped onto the mountain wall and waved the Purgatory Blade in his hand. He sliced all the monsters into two. In the end, he even found it troublesome to hack and chop, so he dropped the monsters one by one into the abyss.
After dealing with the monsters about a hundred meters away, Vincent immediately rode the flying monsters and flew to the bottom of the abyss.
As the weight of the crystal became lighter and lighter, Vincent’s speed of descent also became faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the bottom of the abyss and slashed at all the monsters that were still alive!
“Collapsing Mountain Strike!”
“Raging Flame Slash!”
“Death Blade!”
After swinging his blade, all the poisonous monsters died one after another. Meanwhile, Vincent absorbed the psionic power in all the monsters’ bodies once again.
Although the psionic power in the body of a level 11 creature was abundant, it was nothing compared to Vincent who was a level 14 creature. Therefore, after absorbing the psionic power of all the monsters, Vincent was a step away from leveling up again.
“F*ck, I can’t wait anymore!”
As soon as Vincent stopped fighting, he thought of the Cup of Fate that had been stolen from him. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. After cursing angrily, he jumped onto the back of the flying monster and began to sprint into the sky.
The weight of the crystal began to increase rapidly. Vincent’s psionic energy consumption rate also began to increase exponentially. However, he relied on the massive amount of psionic energy that he had just harvested and gritted his teeth to endure it.
Finally, the flying monster arrived at the mountain wall where the soul army had gathered. However, Vincent did not stop and continued to charge upwards.
Immediately after, Vincent arrived before the mountain wall that had just been cleaned up.
But he still did not stop!
Vincent then arrived at the territory of a level 12 creature, a highly toxic monster.
But he still did not stop!
Vincent’s gaze was determined. He was ready to soar into the sky!
The crystal on his back became heavier and heavier, and the bandages on Vincent’s shoulders gradually hooked into his flesh. Blood began to flow down his back, but he did not even blink.
Finally, the mountain walls around Vincent were filled with level 20 creatures, and the exit of the abyss was right in front of him.
The Protoss was standing outside the exit and observing quietly. When he saw Vincent rush up suddenly, his eyes could not help but flash with a trace of surprise.
“Kacha!”
At that moment, the flying monster that was carrying Vincent could no longer bear the weight on its back. Its body that was made up of souls instantly shattered. Vincent, who was originally on its back, lost his footing and fell to the bottom of the abyss.
Vincent’s gaze was fixed at the top of the abyss. He raised his hand high, and his fingertip was only 10 centimeters away from the exit seal!
However, there was not the slightest hint of frustration in Vincent’s eyes, because his goal was not to leave the toxic abyss right at that moment!
Vincent retracted his five fingers and fiercely raised his middle finger. He observed the exit and made a gesture that was common to all the races in the Black Hole.
“Hmm? He feels like he can’t get out and wants to die?”
The Protoss frowned and sighed as he played with his fate in his hand.
He did not care about the provocation of an ant because he could kill Vincent at any time. However, he wanted to see things that could not be done whilst he was alive. The Protoss was more than willing to continue watching!
In the abyss, Vincent, who was falling continuously, suddenly spread out his Flaming Wings on his back. With a flap of his wings, he instantly stopped falling. He then turned his body and flew past the area near the mountain wall.
“Flame Explosion!”
Vincent roared loudly and threw a series of flame bombs. He smashed them into the faces of the level 20 creatures.
“Roar!”
Countless high-level poison monsters roared furiously. They stretched out their arms to attack Vincent, but Vincent nimbly dodged them all. On the contrary, some of the poison monsters lost their balance and fell into the abyss.
As Vincent continued to provoke them, more and more poison monsters fell down from the mountain walls. When there was no sign of a poison monster on the surrounding mountain walls, he began to provoke the monsters below, until all the monsters fell into the abyss!
At that time, Vincent could no longer maintain his flying state. The wings on his back collapsed and he began to fall.
When the Protoss outside the exit saw the scene, his tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed. He sighed happily, “Interesting, it’s really too interesting!”
