Chapter 392 - The Bottom of the Abyss

Following the collapse of Hell’s Rose, a large number of rocks fell down along with Vincent into the bottomless abyss. However, everything that fell into the abyss seemed to be falling into a state of stillness after a period of time.

This was because the surrounding environment was dark. Even if they fell rapidly, there was no end to it. It was as if they were floating in a piece of chaos.

This was what Vincent felt at that moment because the huge suction force from the bottom of the abyss had caused his entire body to lose its strength. Even wanting to move his hands and feet seemed very extravagant, and the endless darkness seemed to have sealed his five senses. He could not hear any sound and he could not feel any resistance from the air.

Fortunately, Vincent had the special ability granted by the Art of Heaven’s Will that allowed him to see the surrounding abyss clearly!

Vincent did not know how far he had fallen. He could only see that his surroundings were no longer a layer of rocks. Instead, they were strange layers that were as black as ink and as smooth as jade. He could not see any signs of life at all; he could only see the giant rock above him that was falling at the same speed as him.

“Stop!” shouted Vincent in his mind.

However, he was unable to do anything at that moment. He did not know how to stop himself from falling.

Suddenly, in the next second, Vincent’s Hand of God on his left arm began to change shape. It then split into eight spears and pierced fiercely into the surrounding rock walls. Vincent was hanging like a spider in the abyss.

As he had stopped falling, he could once again feel the terrifying suction force from the bottom of the abyss. At the same time, he started to regain his senses and existence.

The Hand of God was a piece of special equipment from the Protoss Race. An abyss in Elf World was completely unable to restrict the power of the Hand of God. However, Vincent, who was hanging in the middle of the abyss suddenly realized that there were still countless falling rocks above him. If he continued to hang in the air like this, he would be smashed to death sooner or later!

“Withdraw!” said Vincent in a hurry.

He quickly withdrew the seven spears formed by his Hand of God, leaving only one behind to maintain his position on the rock wall. After getting a good grip, he proceeded to withdraw his Hand of God and stuck his whole body tightly against the rock wall. He managed to avoid all the countless rocks that fell from above.

Vincent, who finally had a chance to catch his breath, quickly removed his right hand from his waist and inserted it into the rock wall below him. He then turned around and sat on it.

This was the inspiration that Andre had given him. As long as the quality of the weapon was good enough, it would be able to act as a support in the abyss. Vincent was alone at that moment, so he could use this method to rest in the abyss temporarily.

After resting, he withdrew his Hand of God and let out a long sigh of relief. He then lowered his head and looked down. He saw that the light at the bottom of the abyss was exactly the same as what he saw at the entrance of the ninth floor.

This meant that the distance between him and the bottom of the abyss was only a hair’s breadth. There was no change in his field of vision!

Vincent did not dare to continue free-falling in the abyss because he was afraid that he would not be able to stop himself when he got close to the bottom. He did not want to fall and become meat paste!

“It seems more reliable to rely on the space tunnel!”

Vincent sighed softly and took out his space token. However, he did not directly open the space door, because he knew that there was another terrifying threat inside the space tunnel!

“Observe!” shouted Vincent.

The space token in his hand flashed and a light screen soon appeared. It projected the scene inside the main tunnel.

When Vincent saw the huge spider cocoon lying quietly in the tunnel, he could not help but be startled. It seemed that the Zerg was about to evolve again. When it completed its evolution, it would definitely become even more uncontrollable!

However, at that moment, Vincent could only rejoice that the Zerg had entered the cocoon state. It seemed that he could use the space tunnel without worrying for now!

“Fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. As long as it is not a problem that happens in front of me, it is not considered a real problem!”

Vincent revealed a bitter smile and comforted himself. He then used the space token to draw a line under his body and opened a space door. He lifted his foot and kicked on the rock wall. The momentum allowed him to float in the air again. After casually pulling out his Return Journey of the Dead, he fell straight into the space door.

After successfully entering the space tunnel, Vincent no longer had to worry that he would continue to play freefall. In the parallel space-time that had to be controlled using the modification authority, Vincent could control the speed of his descent freely. He could also change his position at will.

For example, Vincent could use the modification authority to change his current position to a thousand meters below. He could instantly flash to 1,000 meters below and use this method to continuously flash downwards. In fact, it was much faster than freefall!

At first, Vincent only adjusted his position by 1,000 meters, but he soon felt that it was not enough. He then began to use 10,000 meters as a unit to continue to flash downwards. After descending for a period of time, Vincent once again adjusted his descending unit to 100,000 meters!

After an unknown period of time, Vincent finally reached the deepest part of the abyss. Although he had not seen the bottom of the abyss, he had already seen the source of the light!

After a preliminary observation, Vincent could confirm that he was in the deepest core of Elf World!

Moreover, the place was completely different from the underground of the human world. There was no lava flowing, nor were there any signs of high temperature. Instead, Vincent saw a large amount of Origin Divine Earth flowing in there like an underground river.

As Andre and the other Dark Elf traitors have been stealing the Origin Divine Earth, the underground river had already dried up, revealing a relatively flat underground rock layer.

There was a huge spear on top of the rock layer that was hundreds of meters long. It was made out of crystal!

The crystal spear was the source of the light that Vincent had seen earlier from above!

The entire underground space was illuminated by the light emitted by the spear. However, the light was not dazzling. Instead, it was very gentle. When Vincent saw it, he could not help but want to approach it and touch the spear!

However, Vincent knew that there would be a danger if something went wrong. Therefore, he suppressed the desire in his heart and carefully dived to the bottom of the abyss in the space tunnel.

He then opened the space door and stepped onto the platform at the bottom of the abyss.

Cold! It was very cold!

Vincent instantly felt a bone-piercing cold. Other than that, he did not feel anything else.

“Flaming Sun Divine Body!”

With a light shout, Vincent instantly spiritualized his entire body to resist the coldness around him. Then, he began to look around the bottom of the abyss.

What surprised Vincent was that there were no rocks at the bottom of the abyss, nor were there the remains of the legendary Dark Elves who had fallen into the abyss. Vincent had two guesses about this, one was that the elves or rocks that had fallen here had been washed away by the endless underground river, or that the elves and rocks that had fallen were still in a state of falling. Vincent may have arrived at the bottom of the abyss before them because he had used the space tunnel.

However, all of this was not important to Vincent. What Vincent was most concerned about at that moment was not the Origin Divine Earth that was still flowing endlessly, but the crystal spear that stood in the center of the platform!

Vincent could not help but recall the story that Monica had told him back then. There was once a terrifying foreign race that had invaded Elf World. At that time, the foreign race had a fierce battle with the Seven Great Elf Kings. In the end, the foreign race used their weapons to pierce fiercely into the earth, and the traces left behind after their penetration became the current bottomless abyss. After countless generations and development by the elves, did they create Hell’s Rose that was located at the highest level of the abyss!

Previously, Vincent had only thought that this was a legend. However, it currently seemed like the invasion of the other races had really occurred. This was because it looked like a standard crystal spear. It was not like the common spear of the Elf Race. Instead, it was more like a spear used by the Human Race!

Of course, this kind of spear was not rare among the Black Holes of the 10,000 races. At least, Vincent had seen traces of this spear in the memories of the immortal skeletons and in the ruins of the Elf World.

It was possible that the alien race that left this spear behind might also be a brother race that came from the same origin as the Human Race!

“Could it be that this is a weapon left behind by a certain immortal powerhouse?” sighed Vincent softly.

This was because, in the memories that he had obtained, the immortals did indeed have the ability to open up space. Therefore, the immortals would have the ability to break into the Elf World even before the appearance of the Black Holes.

Moreover, as a high-level creature, it was not impossible for the Immortals to challenge the Seven Great Elf Kings alone!

However, in order to confirm this conjecture, Vincent could only continue to investigate the information brought by this spear.

Vincent walked in front of the spear carefully. He discovered that the tip of the spear had already sunk more than half into the ground, and the ground around the spear was full of traces of the scouring of water.

It seemed that after the spear was inserted into the ground, it was soon immersed in the underground river where the Origin Divine Earth flowed through before it encountered resistance. After that, it did not continue to sink deeper into the ground. Instead, it remained there. However, even after so many years, the crystal spear still emitted an extremely terrifying aura. It even made Vincent shudder. It seemed that countless lives had been lost under this spear!

Vincent tried to raise his hand. He was preparing to touch the spear. However, after some thought, he felt that it was not safe enough, so he raised his left hand.

After experiencing several life-threatening situations, Vincent finally understood the need to be careful. Although he was only a level 35 creature, his left arm gave him the same status as the Protoss.

In other words, any attack from any race below the divine level would not be able to destroy his left arm. Therefore, Vincent had an additional way to check for danger!

When his left hand touched the tip of the crystal spear, many memories began to flood Vincent’s mind. Battle scenes kept flashing across his eyes. He soon saw a long spear piercing into the ground. He also saw the chaotic scene of the world collapsing. This was the end of the memories.

At this moment, Vincent suddenly had a realization. The owner of this long spear in ancient times was a madman who wanted to increase his strength through battles. His race and origin could not be investigated, because the scenes that Vincent saw only showed the madman wandering in various worlds alone.

Every time he traveled to a world, the madman would challenge the strongest creature at that time. After killing the strongest creature in that world, he would break through space and leave directly. This spear was the carrier of his initial cultivation until he broke into the Elf World. He had accumulated a tremendous will through constant battle. It was also this constant pursuit of battles that allowed the ancient madman to come back to life at countless critical moments. He had won countless battles with great disparity in strength!

And the great battle that happened in the Elf World back then should have ended with that madman’s victory. But in the end, for some unknown reason, that madman gave up the weapon that he had used for many years before he left. He buried this long spear deep into the ground of the Elf Race and left through the void alone.

The Seven Great Elf Kings who died in battle were actually still alive. They had naturally found themselves a successor. However, this spear, which was full of endless fighting spirit, was buried deep in the ground. From then on, it became a legend amongst the elves. There was no other news about it!

Vincent was immersed in the memories of the past. He could feel the arrogant conception of that madman who kept challenging the strong. He seemed to have some understanding of it in his heart. At the same time, the fourth form of the eight forms of Heaven’s Will that he had been unable to comprehend for a long time seemed to have made an improvement. It was as if he was just one step away from understanding it. After that, he would be able to grasp the profound meaning of the fourth form.

“Weng!”

The crystal spear suddenly trembled. Vincent felt a piercing pain coming from his palm immediately after that. He suddenly came back to his senses and saw the light on the crystal spear surging crazily toward his arm.

The light reflected the endless battle intent of the madman from back then. Due to its master’s abandonment, the spear had been stored in the depths of the world for a long time. It was as if the spear had gained some intelligence and contained endless unwillingness and resentment.

When Vincent gained further understanding about Heaven’s Will, he had unintentionally formed a connection with the endless battle intent within the spear.

The spear’s boundless battle intent and unwillingness to be buried underground for a long time seemed to have come to an agreement with Vincent. It then began to surge crazily into Vincent’s body.

Vincent felt an indescribable surge in his heart. After all, he himself had experienced countless fierce battles on the battlefield. He instantly felt a heroic feeling that could cut through the heavens and destroy the earth.

Following that, the Return Journey of the Dead on his waist automatically unsheathed itself and landed in his right hand. The support of this boundless battle intent created an invisible resonance between the blade and its owner. It allowed Vincent to once again feel the concept of being one with his weapon.

“Splitting the heavens and earth!” roared Vincent loudly.

The blade in his hand flipped and flew. Countless blade auras began to surge out from him as the center, forming 100, 1,000, and eventually 10,000 blades in the air. They were continuously slashing toward the surrounding rock walls.

Vincent’s blade aura was like an endless, monstrous wave, continuously rolling out in all directions. A series of explosions and collapsing sounds could be heard. His blade aura was continuously expanding the space at the bottom of the abyss causing the surging underground river to appear before Vincent. He did not hold anything back.

At the same time, an incomparably great battle intent suddenly surged into Vincent’s body. His realm that had not improved for a long time suddenly began to increase rapidly!

As Vincent had never stopped absorbing psionic power before, he was only a thought away from improving his realm. As he currently had endless battle intent, it was equivalent to having the aptitude to become a powerhouse. There was no longer any obstacle for him. His realm rose like a rainbow piercing the sun. It was simply unstoppable!

In the blink of an eye, the aura on Vincent’s body changed several times, from a level 35 creature to a level 39 creature, but it did not stop there. He continued to climb toward the threshold of a level 40 creature!

After a long time, Vincent’s blade finally stopped. He finally woke up. He suddenly realized that the world in front of him had returned to darkness. The crystal spear in front of him no longer had any light. He could only rely on the vision brought by his Art of Heaven’s Will to observe the deep and vast space around him.

The space around Vincent could no longer be called an abyss. It was more like the legendary underworld. Looking around, he could not see the edge at all. There was only endless darkness.

At that moment, Vincent finally understood what was going on. When he comprehended the fourth form of the eight forms of Heaven’s Will, he split the heaven and earth. When this form was used to the extreme, it had the power to create a world, just like the underground space in front of him!

He had just comprehended the power, but he was already so strong. If he could master this move, he could create a Black Hole out of thin air and cross freely between any world!

Vincent also thought of the endless battle intent that had surged into his body earlier. He subconsciously looked at his left hand, only to find that his movement had actually brought a burst of dazzling light.

At the same time, a series of explosions came from the space in front of him.

Vincent was shocked. Only then did he realize that his battle intent was at its peak. He had raised his hand and waved his arm unintentionally. This simple move had caused him to display his full strength as if he was fighting. At the same time, he also found out that he had already advanced to a level 40 creature, and the psionic power in his body had increased once again. It was like an underground river that flowed endlessly under his feet. It complemented the endless fighting spirit that filled his body. They were each other’s driving force and had helped Vincent to increase his attack by several times!

Although Vincent only had the strength of a level 40 creature, he still had the strength to fight against Andre, who had already become a demon!

Vincent sheathed his weapon and sighed. He turned his head to look at the crystal spear that had already lost its luster and sighed softly, “Back then, you were cruelly abandoned by your master. Now that you and I have met, I have received endless gifts. Apart from gratitude, I also want to bring you out of this dark space. If possible, I am willing to bring you back to your peak and challenge the strongest among the 10,000 races of the Black Hole. I will use their blood to pay tribute to your many years of silence!”

“Weng!”

The crystal spear let out a humming sound once again. It then began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, until it was only a head taller than Vincent.

After seeing this, Vincent raised his hand to grab the crystal spear. He pulled it into his hand with a little force. He was shocked to realize that it was as light as a feather in his hand. It was as if he was holding onto nothing.

A hint of ecstasy soon appeared on Vincent’s face. Ever since he received the Return Journey of the Dead, he had never seen a divine weapon that made him so fond of it.

Vincent looked at the long spear in his hand and said heroically, “Don’t worry! Follow me, I will not disgrace your reputation!”
