“Kill!”

“Ula!”

On the surface of the water, a small human team and a small Demon Clan team are struggling fiercely.

Both teams are strong, all with at least the power of a Controller.

However, among the two teams, three of the humans are severely injured and currently at a disadvantage, appearing to be on the verge of defeat.

“Damn it, if only we hadn’t been injured at the Big Dragon Pit, we wouldn’t have been entangled by you...”

One man with a hooked nose curses again and again. However, one of his wings is broken, leaving only one fluttering in vain, unable to lift him into the air.

“Ula!”

The Demon Clan opposing him does not understand his words, but shows a look of pleasure. Obviously, to him, the enemy’s rage is a recognition of his power.

At this moment, both teams fail to notice that about three to four hundred meters away from their fight, a special crystal mirror is floating on the surface of the water.

Under the water surface, a thin and long stick extends all the way to the bottom.

Du Gang is observing the battle through the “periscope” he created.

“Should I help?”

He is hesitant, and suspects that the Demon Clan might have recruited many human teams over the past four months, including the Blue Robed Eagle King’s team.

Soon, he makes a decision.

He can’t stay in the abyss forever. He is bound to have to interact with others. So going up to help and initiate contact is the best choice for him right now.

Moreover, even if these people have been bought by the Demon Clan and want to hurt him, he would show them a real hell when the time comes.

“Whoosh!”

Quickly, he stores away the simple ‘periscope’ made from the Ancient Divine Spear, and makes his way slowly towards the surface of the water.

Moving stealthily to the battlefield below and choosing the right moment, he attacks directly upwards.

“Kill!”

Above the surface, the Blue Robed Eagle King senses the situation beneath the water, guessing it’s a human, and immediately exerts force to hold back his opponent.

“Ula!”

The Demon Clan on the other side is furious. How dare someone come to ambush?

He attempts to dodge, but can’t. The Blue Robed Eagle King is too fast, holding him in place and preventing him from escaping.

“Boom!”

With nowhere to evade, the Demon Clan member has to directly take a hit from Du Gang.

“Bang!”

A loud noise echoes as a large hole is blasted into the Demon Clan member’s abdomen.

“Cry your chi wa!”

The Demon Clan member utters a mysterious phrase before dying, his Divine Thought flashing as it leaves his body.

There is a flash of cold light in Du Gang’s eyes, but seeing the surrounding humans, he dismisses the idea of silencing them.

For some time now, every time he has encountered the Demon Clan, he has either avoided them or silenced them, rarely letting them escape. This time, it seems he has a heavy killing intent.

But luckily, he can still control his murderous intent.

The other four Demon Clan members see the situation and recognize the state of the battlefield.

In a situation where they’re outnumbered six to four, there’s barely any chance to turn the tide. Therefore, the four Demon Clan members don’t hesitate at all and abandon their bodies, their Divine Thoughts returning to the God within and escaping quickly.

However, before their deaths, they all utter a sound similar to the Demon Clan member who was killed earlier.

“Cry your chi wa!”

“Cry your chi wa!”

What the hell?

Du Gang feels quite bewildered.

At this time, Ying Qing next to him laughs and says, “It’s nothing, they’re saying ‘wait next time’, something like that...”

Du Gang curiously asks, “You can understand the Demon Clan language?”

Ying Qing laughs, “There’s a Demon Clan language course in the Ancient City exchange center, you can pay to learn, I just happen to have learned it...”

Not only Ying Qing but also the other four were incredibly excited.

From their words, Du Gang had a rough idea and understood the underpinnings.

Only the strong could stay near the Big Dragon Pit and struggle for more essence. This suggested that their cultivation speed would be much faster than absorbing first or second-level essences.

However, his forehead furrowed slightly.

The strength of these five people...

They are all Controllers!

Du Gang was a little surprised, “All five of you are Controllers, and you got injured?”

Ying Qing shook his head and said bitterly: “Our strength just barely qualifies us to join the battle in the Big Dragon Pit...”

“What?”

Du Gang was taken aback, Controllers just barely qualify to participate in the battle of the Big Dragon Pit?!

Ying Qing nodded and said: “Yes, being a Controller is just a threshold. In the Big Dragon Pit, there are quite a few very powerful guys...”

“These guys, their strongest divine power techniques are not only 100 Naer. Many people have surpassed 100 Naer, and some have even reached 200 Naer...”

“200 Naer?!”

Du Gang opened his mouth wide, stunned, “A 200 Naer divine power, a First Tribulation divine spirit?”

Ying Qing nodded, “Yes, that’s right. A First Tribulation divine spirit, with 200 Naer divine power. It means that the Supreme Technique has been practiced to 2% completion...”

When he first learned of it, he was somewhat surprised. He had struggled to even reach 1%, but someone had achieved 2%.

Du Gang suddenly understood. He asked, “Are there many who possess such a 200 Naer Divine Power?”

Ying Qing shook his head, “Not many, but not few either. At least four or five teams have such an individual. Their teammates might not be as good but aren’t much worse either...”

He said sentimentally, “We’re still doing fine now. Decades ago, it was said there were those whose divine power reached 300 Naer...”

“But luckily, these guys left the first abyss after absorbing the three different essences to their upper limit and advanced to the second layer of the abyss!”

The second layer of the abyss!

Du Gang knew about it. In there, those who could enter the First, Second, and Third Tribulations were not limited in numbers.

Mostly, those who could get to the second layer were either the strongest among the First Tribulation divine spirits, or they belonged to the Second and Third Tribulations.

Hearing this, he asked curiously, “In the second layer of the abyss, are there still similar wild monsters to fight?”

Ying Qing nodded, laughing, “Yes, that’s the benefit of the abyss. Each layer has wild monsters. For example, if we’ve absorbed the essences of the monsters in the first layer to the limit, we can continue to absorb more in the second layer...”

So that’s how it is!

Du Gang suddenly got excited again. It meant that just with the first three layers of the abyss, one could improve their divine power by at least 18000 Naer. And it was all free, no money required!!

Ying Qing laughed, “We’re on the first layer of the abyss where we’ve basically reached our absorption limit for the essences dropped by Level 1 and 2 monsters. We’re just waiting to absorb the essence dropped by Level 3 monsters before we can advance to the second layer of the abyss...”

“Compared to the first layer, the second layer is a real battlefield. It’s where we can truly show our skills. There are many strong individuals there, who as First Tribulation Divine Spirits, have managed to defeat even Second or Third Tribulation Divine Spirits!”

Succeeding against the odds is particularly tempting for them, the chosen ones!

Du Gang nodded, “I see!”

Then, they exchanged some more information before parting ways again.

“Du Gang, see you around. Try not to go any further. You’re about to reach the Big Dragon area. There are many members of the Demon Clan there. All of them are Controllers...”

Ying Qing laughed, “We have to go back too, back to our own wild territories, to fight some red monsters...”

Soon, they parted ways, and Du Gang once again ventured underwater.

Now, he had no intention of going to the Big Dragon Pit.

After all, he still hadn’t fully absorbed the essence of the Level 2 monsters. At the moment, his divine power was only at the 90 Naer upper limit. Even if he went to the Big Dragon Pit, he would merely be an onlooker. Unless he had lost his mind, it was impossible to reveal his Jie-Character Secret in public.

After reaching this area near the center, Du Gang found that the number of water monsters encountered indeed increased several times. He didn’t even need to search for them. There were always water monsters coming to him.

To hunt monsters more efficiently, Du Gang even came up with a strategy to lure the monsters. He would lure one monster to another, allowing him to kill two monsters in a second and effectively doubling his efficiency.

However, it was a shame that he could only lure two monsters at a time. When he tried to lead two monsters to a third, he found that the water monsters wouldn’t continue to chase him, but would scatter instead.

Apparently, the water monsters repelled each other. Although they would not fight upon encountering each other, they would separate.

“Oh well, two will do. The efficiency has at least doubled!”

This meant he could hunt down 20 water monsters a day, thereby increasing his divine power by 30 Naer each day.

“If I continue at this rate, will I be able to reach the upper limit of 2000 Naer divine power from Level 2 monsters in just 50 days?!”

Calculating the efficiency, Du Gang couldn’t help but laugh. Such a fast rate was like stealing money! He doubted anyone could be faster!

“By the time Long Aotian and the others come back, I might have maxed out all the wild monsters in the first layer of the abyss...”
