Please be my partner.

Melen's expression was extremely wonderful at this time. He really didn't expect to have such a gain.

But at this point, Melen was even more afraid to act rashly. You have to know that the spread of the church is not something that can be said casually. The most basic point is that no matter how far the distance is, you can freely put your own power into the world.

Apart from myths, only demigods with some mythological characteristics can barely do this.

Chapter 432: The Great Lord of the Abyss World?!

"Heaven's Kind Father? Ancient Moon Region!"

After reciting a few words, Melen smiled slightly and turned away.

He really didn't expect that this exploration would bring such an unexpected gain. Although the one who had a grudge against him was only the [Shepherd] Pat Bozovic, in the final analysis, the blame still fell on this so-called "Father of Heaven".

Of course, Mellen has no ability to retaliate now, but when he is strong enough, he may seek "justice".

Melen suppressed these thoughts for the moment. He didn't have time to think about them now. There were only about four and a half months left before the adventure to the ruins of the high-dimensional world. He needed to replan his next itinerary.

In the Tunan Realm, on the 632nd floor of the Abyss, the Moon Shadow Order.

At present, if you want to obtain rule treasures, only these three ways are reliable.

After a brief thought, Melen ruled out the option of the Tuonan Realm. One reason was that the danger here was too uncertain. If he was lucky, it would be fine, but if he encountered any remaining traces of a mythical powerful being, he might not even have a chance to escape.

At the same time, the Tuonan Realm is too far away from Melen, and it may take one or two months just to travel there. He also wants to take some time to explore the low-dimensional world.

Then, the Moon Shadow Order was also ruled out. First of all, the uncertainty of the mission was one aspect, and secondly, it was not easy to accept the mission of a secret organization like the Moon Shadow Order.

Just like the hidden camps in the game, if you want to unlock the camp reputation, you must first complete a series of tedious pre-tasks. Only after gaining initial trust will you be eligible to continue to brush up your reputation and get rewards.

The Sas Saints follow a similar pattern. If Mellen had not gained Lucas's trust, there would not have been a series of subsequent events.

From this, it was not difficult for Melen to conclude that the Moon Shadow Order was probably in big trouble, which was why they acted in this way.

For Mellen, the Temple of Divine Machinery is enough of a headache for the time being, and he doesn't want to get into any other trouble in the short term.

After eliminating two options, the only option left is the 632nd floor of the Abyss.

This choice is more in line with Mellen's current strength. In the Abyss, lords and great lords are completely different concepts.

Demon lords refer to demons that occupy a territory. They can exert power far beyond their original strength in their territory. This improvement can even transcend classes. For example, some legendary demon lords can be on par with saints in their territory.

The Demon Lords refer to those powerful demons that completely occupy a layer of the abyss world. They can at least exert the power of a demigod in their own territory, and even when facing attacks from multiple demigods, they can still have an absolute advantage. The powerful ones among them can even be compared to myths.

Although the three demon lords on the 632nd floor of the Abyss World are very powerful, even after being blessed by the territory, they are still at the saint level and are within Mellen's response range. Maybe he can find some opportunities.

In addition, Melen has a guess. If this guess is true, the bottomless abyss may become his blessed land.

The Abyss is in the same dimension as the real world, but on a different level, similar to the spiritual world and the endless void.

Don't forget, Melen is still protected by a high-maintenance shield. This confidence allows him to be timid when facing demigods, but to strike hard when facing saints.

After determining the next plan, Melen also began to prepare to go to the abyss.

The real world is just a nickname for the entire dimension. In fact, it is divided into many levels, such as the world level composed of small, medium and large worlds, the level where the spiritual world is located, and the level of endless void.

The abyss is also a level of the real world, and because of the existence of the powerful and chaotic abyss consciousness, it is not easy to enter the level where the abyss is located.

Of course, for a strong person at the saint level, it is not difficult to cross the barriers of the level and enter the abyss. It just takes more time and energy.

But, that's not necessary.

The abyss is not closed to the outside world. On the contrary, many abyssal worlds have special teleportation arrays connecting them.

The reasons for opening these abyssal worlds are also different. There is a 570-story layer ruled by the Succubus Queen, which is a huge den of indulging. The succubus army under her command can bring her huge wealth and connections at all times.

There is a similar chaotic 141th floor, with dozens of demon lords. Although they often fight each other, they jointly run an absolutely neutral area. The identities of those who come here are also mixed, including traveling mages, adventurers, mercenaries, bounty hunters, cultists... and so on. They all have their own purposes, but this place welcomes everyone.

There is also the most famous Wanyuan Plain. As the top of the entire bottomless abyss, it is a barren land with no birds, no grass, and thick dust, scorching under the deep red sun of hell.

The dusty plains are interspersed with three types of landforms: the huge abyss entrance on the surface, the huge steel fortress, and the most famous Styx.

Those huge abyss entrances are portals leading to deeper levels. If you descend along certain specific abysses, you will soon reach the relevant abyss world. Of course, it is extremely dangerous to randomly jump into those abyss entrances leading to an unfamiliar plane of the bottomless abyss, because there are too many uncertainties. Although most abyss entrances are two-way, some are one-way. If you rashly enter one, you may be trapped in an unknown abyss world. Not only will you have to face all kinds of unknown dangers, but you may never be able to leave.

Iron Fortresses often house powerful demon lords and their minions, and these fortresses often serve as staging points for demonic armies on their way to the never-ending bloody wars.

The bloody battle is the eternal war between the abyss and hell. Once it starts, it will often affect the entire layer. If the intensity is greater, it will affect deeper layers and even the outer world. Its scale and intensity are such that even a saint entering it is just a bigger ant.

Of course, such a dangerous bloody battle can attract countless demons and devils, and naturally it has crazy benefits.

If you kill the enemy in a bloody battle, you can immediately gain some of the opponent's power. Legend has it that a little devil joined a bloody battle of terrifying intensity and became a demigod directly after the war.

The truth of the above legend cannot be proven, and there may be a possibility of exaggeration, but it is an indisputable fact that killing the enemy in a bloody battle can bring huge benefits.

As for the danger of a bloody battle?

The devil doesn't care!

The devil...well, neither can he!

The Styx is a river that runs across all layers of the Abyss. It brings countless evil souls into the abyss every moment, and washes them to the shore and turns them into worms. After absorbing enough nutrients, these worms will evolve into the lowest level of demons.

But what really makes the Styx Fire popular is that it is one of the few things that can restrain the powerful mythical beings.

In the ancient age of the gods, when mythological powerful beings made contracts with each other, they would often recite their true names and use the River Styx as a witness.

Of course, even with the power of the Styx, it is impossible to permanently bind the mythical strongman, and the contract can only last for 3000 years at most.

After careful consideration, Melen finally arrived at the 141st level of the abyss through the teleportation array of the Demon Realm.

Actually, Melen originally planned to go to the 570th floor with a critical eye, and it was closer to the destination of this trip, the 632nd floor. However, considering the grudge between the Succubus Queen and his cheap father, Melen finally gave up this tempting but risky idea.

As for the Wanyuan Plain, let alone, not to mention that Mellen couldn't tell which abyss entrance led to the 632nd level of the abyss world, the danger there alone was enough to deter him.

The neutral zone on the 141st floor of the abyss is a huge demon city. When Melen walked out of the teleportation array, he could see many people dressed like him, covering themselves tightly in cloaks, but there were also many who did not care whether their identities were revealed and did not try to hide them at all.

The city is quite prosperous. Even the demons known for their violent and crazy behavior are mostly well-behaved. Occasionally, some of them go crazy, but they will be immediately warned by the patrolling demon soldiers.

Melen wandered around this demon city full of real exotic atmosphere with great interest, and was ready to taste the so-called demon delicacies. However, when a berserker demon with a foul smell all over his body brought a pot of black soup that was still bubbling and emitting wailing and screams to the table, Melen had to admit that his curiosity was indeed not as strong as he imagined.

In the end, Melen just drank the glass of Frost Iron Ale, which looked normal. As for the "delicacy", he casually pushed it to the demon at the next table. Watching the latter wolfing it down, Melen was not moved at all.

It is worth mentioning that there are two types of hard currency in the Abyss, souls and magic gold coins. The former is the original currency of the Abyss, and the latter represents the influence of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance.

After leaving the Demon City, Melen first cleared away the tail following him, and then found an empty corner to verify his guess.

Mellen easily removed the seal in his body, and immediately the entire 141-layer abyss world began to vibrate slightly, and it quickly grew stronger. Faintly, a hazy and powerful will was descending.

At the same time, the power of the 141st layer of the abyss world began to gather with Melen as the center and tried to flow into his body.

Mellen's lips curled up slightly, and he immediately re-sealed himself. All the vibrations and strange phenomena in the outside world suddenly stagnated, and then slowly dissipated. Only the powerful will that was about to descend seemed a little unwilling, but without guidance, it could only disperse helplessly.

Mellen communicated with his dog through the contract and quickly confirmed his guess.

It is both difficult and easy to become a demon lord in the bottomless abyss. As long as you occupy a large enough territory, you will be able to gain the favor and gifts of the will of the abyss and condense the lord's mark. Once you completely occupy an entire layer of the abyss world, the lord's mark will be sublimated into the great lord's mark, which is the complete lord's mark.

This lord's mark is actually condensed from the origin of the bottomless abyss.

Although it was Mellen's first time entering the Abyss, it was not his first time dealing with it. The abyss world that had invaded the Blue and Green Realm was captured by the will of the abyss and had completed its transformation.

In the end, that abyss world became the nourishment for Xiao Honglian's evolution.

In other words, the Little Red Lotus naturally possesses an amount of origin equivalent to that of an entire layer of the abyss, or even more, because when the Bottomless Abyss transformed and dragged that abyssal world, it also invested a lot of original power. When the situation was settled and they were ready to withdraw to stop the loss, naturally some of the original power could not be recovered and was swallowed up by the Little Red Lotus.

Melen had long ago wondered what would happen if Little Red Lotus entered the Abyss. He had also consulted a lot of relevant information and finally came up with a possible guess...

With the abyss origin in Xiao Honglian's body, perhaps as long as he enters an ownerless abyss world, he can immediately condense a complete lord's mark and become a great lord who controls an entire abyss world!

And what is happening now also confirms Mellen’s guess.

Presumably, when the three demon lords on the 632nd floor discovered that they were not facing an outsider, but a great lord who controlled all the authority of this layer of the abyss world, their expressions must have been quite interesting.

Of course, Mellen didn't intend to go to the 632nd floor and fight directly with the demon lords. Before that, he had to at least figure out the specific function of the secret treasure of rules that the latter possessed, so that he could be foolproof and avoid any setbacks.

The main problem now is how to quickly travel to the 632nd level abyss world.

Saints can naturally travel through the abyss world by using similar means to cross the world, but there are nearly 141 layers of abyss world between the 632st and 500nd layers. Crossing through them layer by layer, not to mention the time spent, the dangers faced along the way are unimaginable.

In addition, there are connecting passages between the various layers of the Abyss World, which is also the main transportation route in the Abyss World. However, it should be noted that some passages do not go to adjacent layers, but have a certain degree of randomness.

However, these are not Mellen's options. The method he plans to use is simpler and more efficient, which is to go through the River Styx.

As a river that runs through the entire bottomless abyss, the Styx can naturally pass through all levels, but the Styx is an existence that even mythical powerful people fear, so if you want to pass through it, you naturally need some special methods.

Entropy Ships, also known as Chaos Ships, are made of crushed bones, subjugated souls, and petitioners. They are used by demons to move between planes and are also powerful weapons against demons in the Blood War. They have crazy powers specifically designed to counter the effects of order.

A small number of Chaos Ships sail on the River Styx, and the demons sell the right to ride on the Chaos Ships to those brave, or foolish, adventurers.

Chapter 433: The Ship of Chaos Sailing on the Styx

141st layer of the abyss, the boiling river.

The Styx can continuously breed the lowest level demons. It is the foundation of the entire abyss and is naturally protected by the will of the abyss. Under normal circumstances, those worm beaches cannot be approached.

Only at certain specific ferry crossings can we wait for the arrival of the ship of chaos.

The Boiling River is the ferry crossing to the 141st level of the abyss world. It is not a hidden place at all, and Melen will find out after asking around.

When Melen arrived at the Boiling River, he discovered that although it was called a ferry, it was actually extremely simple. There was only a flat ground connected to the River Styx, and the flow of the River Styx in this section was relatively slow.

The water in the River Styx is a turbid color that is difficult to describe. It seems to contain all the sins in the world. Apart from that, there is nothing special about it.

Although it looks ordinary, the entire area of the Styx is actually shrouded in layers of space, full of danger and strangeness. Not to mention that the water of the Styx itself is extremely deadly even for high-level demons. The slightest contact with it will cause a layer of skin to fall off.

Before Mellen, more than ten people had gathered here, apparently waiting to board the boat.

These dozen people were in groups of three or four, and some were walking alone. They were all silent and did not talk to each other. When Mellen arrived, they just glanced at him lightly and did not pay much attention to him.

Mellen was naturally happy to remain silent. In the bottomless abyss, there was no such thing as "kindness". If a stranger suddenly cared about you, he was most likely plotting against you.

Fortunately, Melen had already inquired about it before coming. Although the Chaos Ship's docking time is not fixed, there are still some traces to follow. The nearest one should be within one or two days. If you miss this one, you may have to wait another half a month to a month.

The smell of sulfur in the air of the bottomless abyss is much stronger than that of the abyss world that Little Red Lotus swallowed. Under the influence of the will of the abyss, the spirituality and energy are even more violent and chaotic. Only chaotic life forms like demons can absorb this chaos without scruples to grow. If normal and orderly professionals rashly absorb the power of the bottomless abyss, at best they will pollute their own system, and at worst they will completely degenerate into new demons.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye. When Melen was immersed in studying the power of the abyss with Xiao Honglian, waves came. Melen looked in the direction of the sound and saw a large ship made mainly of bones slowly approaching.

The shape of the ship is hideous and full of chaos and distortion, but if you look at it for a long time, you will gradually accept this style and find it has a strange beauty. This is actually the chaotic power of the Chaos Ship, which can distort cognition.

Countless skeleton arms of varying lengths extended from the outer wall of the ship. These skeleton arms constantly scooped up sinful souls from the River Styx and integrated them into the hull as a source of energy for the ship's propulsion. Occasionally, souls would break free from the ship's restraints and fall into the River Styx, where they would instantly melt like marshmallows falling into water.

A huge ancient bronze lamp was hung on the bow of the ship. It had gone through so many years that it no longer had the original golden brilliance. Only mottled gray-green and dark green remained. Countless souls were wailing in it. What caught Melen's attention was that there was even the soul of a saint among them.

After the Chaos Ship broke through layers of space and docked at the shore, a large demon on board shouted, "You have five minutes to board the ship. No more."

At this time, more than 30 people had gathered in the Boiling River. After hearing these words, everyone boarded the boat without hesitation.

In addition to those boarding the ship, there were also dozens of people preparing to disembark.

A few minutes later, the Chaos Ship set sail again. The whole process was incredibly fast, as if it was afraid that they would change their minds.

The Chaos Ship has spatial capabilities, so the interior is much larger than it looks from the outside. A large number of weak demons are working under the whip of demon overseers.

At this time, the big devil clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the people on board, and said with a smile: "Dear guests, welcome. Now, let's discuss the issue of the fare."

The great devil pointed at the person closest to him and asked, "Guest, which level of the abyss are you going to?"

The man's lips seemed to move under his cloak, but no sound came out. The big devil also used his mind to communicate with him, and soon they reached an agreement. The man took out a crystal ball containing souls and handed it to the big devil. Because it was deliberately hidden, no one else could know how many souls were in the crystal ball.

Then the second, the third, the fourth...

Soon someone noticed something was wrong and their faces became nervous.

When the big devil came to the seventh person, the two sides communicated like the previous few people.

Suddenly, the seventh person began to sweat profusely and suddenly shouted: "Magic Gold Coins! I have Magic Gold Coins!!"

The big devil grinned exaggeratedly and taunted, "The Chaos Ship recognizes souls, magic gold coins?! Hehehehehehehehe..."

The seventh person immediately said, "Then let me down. I don't want to sit here anymore. I want to get down!"

The Great Devil simply sneered, not bothering to reply. "What a joke! You've already boarded the Chaos Ship and you're still thinking of getting off?! What a foolish dream!"

The seventh person seemed to understand this as well, and immediately shouted to the other people aboard, "Who? Anyone has a spare soul? I'm willing to pay a premium for it. No, I'll pay double... triple the price!"

The big devil still didn't say anything, but just looked at everyone who boarded the ship with malicious eyes.

Everyone else, including Mellen, remained silent.

The seventh man gradually became desperate and crazy. He pointed at the others and shouted, "It's you! It's all you!! Why didn't you warn me before getting on the boat?! Why?!!"

At this point, the great devil no longer wanted to listen to his nonsense. He sneered and said, "So, you don't have enough souls to pay for the boat ticket? Then you can only use your soul to pay the debt!"

A chain made of soul fire suddenly shot out from the ancient bronze lamp, instantly piercing through the seventh person's body. When returning, it directly dragged his soul into the ancient bronze lamp. During this process, one could also hear the wails and curses from his soul.

Before his body fell, the skeleton arms on the boat had already skillfully stripped it naked. These things, including the magic gold coins he mentioned, were naturally accepted by the big devil.
