Chapter 8 The Abyss's Lair! The Twelve Chosen Ones Clash for the First Time
The Abyss Lair is located in Death Valley at the northernmost end of the map, a place shrouded in thick fog year-round where no one who enters has ever returned.
Lin Feng traveled for three days with the girl and finally arrived at his destination.
The fog was so thick he couldn't see his own hand, and the air was filled with the stench of rotting corpses, with strange roars occasionally heard from the distance.
"Lin Feng, I... I'm a little scared." The girl clutched his sleeve tightly, her voice trembling.
"What is there to fear?" Lin Feng said indifferently. "With me here, no one can hurt you."
He activated "Dark Perception," and the surrounding dark aura immediately formed a clear topographic map in his field of vision.
"Follow me, and don't get lost."
The two passed through the thick fog and gradually saw the outline of the Abyss Lair.
It was a massive underground cave entrance, like a gaping maw, constantly spewing out dark aura. A dozen figures had already gathered at the cave entrance.
"He's here!"
"It's Lin Feng, ranked twelfth on the leaderboard!"
"Legend has it that he just defeated the Dark Cult; he's very strong."
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the group.
There were 12 people in total, each exuding a powerful aura, and all were above Lv.30.
Among them, a man wearing white divine robes was the most eye-catching; he stood in front of everyone, his aura as sacred and majestic as a god.
[Target Found: God (Lv.45)]
[Class: Paladin]
[Talent: Holy Judgment (Unique Rank)]
[Title: Leaderboard Rank 1]
[Weakness: None]
"God..." Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat.
Leaderboard Rank 1, Lv.45, no weaknesses?
This opponent was not easy to deal with.
"Lin Feng," God spoke, his voice echoing like a great bell, "you are the last one to arrive."
"I was delayed on the way," Lin Feng said coldly.
"No matter, the Abyss Master won't wake up for another three days anyway." God smiled. "During these three days, we can... warm up."
He scanned the area, his gaze landing on Lin Feng. "I heard you have a red legendary weapon?"
"What about it?" Lin Feng gripped his fallen blade. "Do you want it?"
"It's not about whether I want it or not." God stepped forward. "It's that there is only one World-Destroying skill book."
Lin Feng fell silent.
Indeed, there were 12 Chosen Ones, but only one World-Destroying skill book. If he couldn't become the final victor, then all previous efforts would be in vain.
"Therefore," God smiled, "we need to... eliminate some people first."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man wearing black armor stepped forward, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"Then let's start with the one ranked last."
He was "Death," ranked eleventh on the leaderboard, Lv.38, and his class was Shadow Assassin.
"Death, are you sure?" "Angel," ranked tenth on the leaderboard, frowned. "Lin Feng just defeated the Dark Cult; his strength is not weak."
"What strength?" Death sneered. "In front of true powerhouses, the weak are just weak."
He vanished from the spot instantly, launching a Shadow Assault, his dagger stabbing straight at Lin Feng's heart!
[Shadow Assault!]
"Too slow."
Lin Feng activated "Wild Rage," the fallen blade instantly blocked the dagger, and then he slashed down!
[fallen blade effect triggered: 500% damage dealt to Dark-attribute enemies]
Death's face turned pale; he wanted to retreat, but it was already too late.
"Slashβ"
With a flash, Death was cut in two and dissipated into specks of light.
The whole place fell silent.
"This... this is the fallen blade!" "Dragon," ranked ninth on the leaderboard, exclaimed. "A legendary artifact!"
"Defeating Death in just one strike..." "Phoenix," ranked eighth on the leaderboard, looked grim. "Lin Feng's strength is likely not below ours."
God narrowed his eyes, examining Lin Feng seriously for the first time.
"Interesting." He said. "It seems this battle of the Chosen Ones will have many variables."
Just then, a roar suddenly came from deep within the Abyss Lair, shaking the entire valley.
[Warning: Abyss Master is waking up]
[Warning: Abyss Guard is awakening]
[Warning: Abyss Army is assembling]
"It seems we don't need to wait three days." God looked at Lin Feng. "The Abyss Master has already awakened."
"Then what are we waiting for?" Lin Feng gripped his fallen blade. "Let's go in."
The 12 Chosen Ones all drew their weapons and walked toward the Abyss Lair.
Lin Feng walked at the back, lost in thought.
11 opponents, the Abyss Master, and the Abyss Administration Bureau...
This war was more complicated than he had imagined.
