151: Find the Lord of the Abyss
"Now you can tell me why an NPC like you turned into a Nether Abyss alien beast?" Qin Yun asked with a smile.
"That is because, decades ago, the Lord of the Nether Abyss found our Moxiga Human Race's habitat, breached it, and wiped out our race."
"And I am the last Fire God Child of the Moxiga Human Race. The Lord of the Nether Abyss knows that I am linked to this Death God Level advancement quest; if I die, this quest will be canceled."
"Therefore, it swapped my Soul with one of its Beast King BOSS subordinates, and then its capable subordinate Gulam devoured that Beast King BOSS's Soul, thereby occupying my body!"
"I then turned into a Beast King-level Nether Abyss alien beast. Because my Soul enjoys rule-based benefits, I can move freely in this Bottomless Nether Abyss!"
NPC Loz recounted the past with grief.
He had thought of committing suicide countless times to prevent the Lord of the Nether Abyss's plan from succeeding, but every time he thought of the tragic deaths of his clansmen, he longed for revenge.
Therefore, he had survived until today!
"Isn't the Lord of the Nether Abyss also sealed? Can it move around and even breach your race's sanctuary?" Qin Yun asked, puzzled.
If the Lord of the Nether Abyss could move around, it would be difficult to track it down. It must know his methods well and wouldn't give him a chance to find it, thereby leaving him trapped here forever.
"Our race has existed for too long, and we have been NPCs for a very long time; the protection period of the rule barrier has long since passed!"
"As for the Lord of the Nether Abyss, it is indeed in a sealed state, but it is a special life form. Every once in a while, it can move about in this Bottomless Nether Abyss in the form of a Soul."
"After years of exploration, it finally discovered the map where our race was hiding, and thus breached it and wiped us out in one fell swoop!"
NPC Loz was filled with hatred.
"Over the years, Gulam has used my body to disguise itself as an NPC and continuously lured Beast Tamers who accepted this Seventh-Order Death God Level advancement quest, intending to destroy the Seal Altar. However, all of them failed without exception, so these Divine-Grade Beast Tamers were eventually killed!"
"I tried to stop them several times but failed. In the end, I was even placed under a Dark Shackle by the Lord of the Nether Abyss, unable to speak or send information!"
"I had no choice but to hide in the darkness. Only when a Divine-Grade Beast Tamer capable of destroying the Seal Altar appeared would I take the initiative to emerge. Even if it meant death, I had to prevent the Seal Altar from being destroyed!"
NPC Loz told Qin Yun everything, and Qin Yun was moved by his courage and conviction.
"Alright, tell me how to find the location of the Lord of the Nether Abyss's true body. I will avenge your race's deep blood feud for you!" Qin Yun promised him.
"Big Shot Qin, actually, finding the true body of the Lord of the Nether Abyss is not difficult. This Seal Altar actually has another function: it can teleport to other spatial maps in the Bottomless Nether Abyss!"
"However, only the Fire God Child of my race has the authority to open the teleportation and return. Although there are countless dimensional space maps here, the Fire God Children of my race have risked their lives to investigate most of them over the generations, finally locking onto two special maps. One of them is the sealing ground of the Lord of the Nether Abyss's true body!"
"For quest takers, these two maps are entry-only; you cannot leave unless you successfully kill the Lord of the Nether Abyss. Therefore, Big Shot Qin, you must wait for me to confirm the exact map where the Lord of the Nether Abyss is located before you can enter. Otherwise, if you enter the wrong one, you will never be able to come out for the rest of your life." NPC Loz warned.
"That's simple. Here are one thousand resurrection coin items, enough for you to explore one map. I'll wait here for your good news, brave NPC!" Qin Yun generously gave NPC Loz one thousand resurrection coins.
"This..." NPC Loz was dumbfounded.
Big Shot Qin could casually take out one thousand of these resurrection items? Did he have to be this extravagant?
"With these one thousand resurrection coins, I will definitely be able to quickly find the map where the Lord of the Nether Abyss is sealed and return alive to tell Big Shot Qin!"
After saying this, NPC Loz opened the portal of the Seal Altar and teleported directly to one of the special maps.
About 20 hours later, NPC Loz returned covered in wounds.
Although he had resurrection coins to save his life, physical injuries were unavoidable.
Qin Yun casually gave him another Life Coin, which immediately healed his physical injuries, shocking him once again!
Damn! How many bug-level item coins does Big Shot Qin actually have?
With resurrection coins and Life Coins, he is practically immortal!
NPC Loz steadied himself, calmed the shock in his heart, and said: "Big Shot Qin, it has been confirmed that the Lord of the Nether Abyss is in the second special map. The map I just explored was the sealing map where its capable subordinate Gulam is located!"
Gulam was not dead; it had only used half of its Soul to occupy NPC Loz's body, effectively treating NPC Loz's body as a Clone.
After confirming the location of the Lord of the Nether Abyss, Qin Yun set off immediately. With NPC Loz leading the way, it didn't take long for them to arrive.
【Ding, you have arrived at a special dimensional space map. This map is entry-only; you can only leave once the Lord of the Nether Abyss is dead!】
"NPC Loz, will you wait outside, or will you come with me to hunt down the Lord of the Nether Abyss Saknus?"
"Of course I will go with Big Shot Qin. Even if I cannot take revenge with my own hands, I must watch it die with my own eyes to pay tribute to the spirits of my clansmen!"
"Then let's go!"
As soon as they entered this map, Golden Niu felt a strong evil aura: "Master, it is undoubtedly the Lord of the Nether Abyss!"
This map contained a large number of Seventh-Order Nether Abyss alien beast guards, all of which were BOSS-level. Due to rule-based reasons, these guards were at most Seventh-Order Beast Emperor BOSS!
However, these BOSSes had all awakened Beast Release and had the bonus of Nether Abyss power; their attributes were not something the Beast Race Royal Family could compare to.
"Start killing!" Qin Yun swept across with a crushing stance.
Although these BOSSes were strong, they could not stop Qin Yun's footsteps.
Upon sensing Qin Yun's aura, the Lord of the Nether Abyss's expression changed repeatedly. It knew very well that at only Seventh-Order Rank, it had no chance of winning against a monster like Qin Yun!
But due to the Seal, it could not escape now.
For this reason, before Qin Yun arrived, the Lord of the Nether Abyss Saknus had already arranged its affairs. Once it died, the title of Lord of the Nether Abyss would be inherited by its beloved subordinate Gulam, and in the future, upon breaking the Seal, it would avenge it against Qin Yun!
Not long after, Qin Yun arrived with NPC Loz.
"Saknus, today I will use your blood to pay tribute to my dead clansmen!" NPC Loz's eyes were bloodshot, and flames were burning.
"Hmph! If not for the fact that Qin Yun's strength and intelligence are too much of a Prodigy, are you even worthy of coming before me and clamoring?"
The Lord of the Nether Abyss Saknus ignored NPC Loz, turned to look at Qin Yun, and said coldly: "At my current Rank, I know I am no match for you, Qin Yun. But don't be complacent; the day the Seal is broken, the Alien Beast God of this Bottomless Nether Abyss will surely trample the Blue Star World. By then, none of your Human Race will survive, and you will spend the rest of your life in boundless purgatory!"
"My ears have grown calluses from hearing this!"
Qin Yun made his move. Holy Edict Dragon Slash prohibited healing, and Infinite Devour crushed everything!
The Lord of the Nether Abyss, who had once shown great ferocity in the Godfall War, died so frustratingly in Golden Niu's mouth.
Hum! Golden Niu devoured another Forbidden Zone Dominator, and its own defense instantly reached the Peak of the Ninth-Order.
