336: Lord of the Abyss

Chapter 336: Abyssal Demon Lord

Everyone present was shaken by the terrifying Divine Qi.

Cui Wenxuan and Elder Wang Fengnian’s brows were tightly furrowed, their expressions extremely serious.

They knew without a doubt that it must be the True God of the Eerie Domain, the Abyssal Demon Lord.

Now, personally experiencing the might of a True God, they truly understood how powerful a contemporary True God was. Without the aid of a Divine Domain or the blessing of a fallen god, it was an almost irresistible force.

The sudden arrival of the Abyssal Demon Lord also caused Cui Wenxuan and Wang Fengnian to worry.

In contrast, the King-Level Serpent and the many otherworldly twisted creatures all knelt in submission, welcoming the True God’s arrival.

Boom!

The Evil Realm’s nascent form was mercilessly annihilated by the giant claw, and even the scattered power was completely devoured by it.

Moments later, the giant claw dissipated, transforming into a man with a somewhat unkempt appearance, looking around forty years old. His features could not be described as proper; in fact, they had absolutely no relation to being proper.

So much so that the author didn't know how to describe his unique appearance.

Of course, the person before them was clearly just an Incarnation of the Abyssal Demon Lord, but even an Incarnation was not an existence they could easily deal with.

Fortunately, Wu Xian and Xue Zhengying were not flustered, knowing that the Abyssal Demon Lord would not make trouble for them.

“Such a remote corner actually hides an Evil Realm,” the Abyssal Demon Lord’s cold voice carried a hint of disgust and disdain. “You summoned me here, didn’t you?”

“Reporting to True God, it was indeed this humble one,” the King-Level Serpent respectfully replied.

“Not bad. I’ll credit you for this later,” the Abyssal Demon Lord nodded in approval, then scanned the scene with a strange expression. “Why is it so lively here? Oh ~ isn’t this Little Friend Wu and Sweetheart Zhengying?

And there’s an otherworldly Domain being shaped? What a grand display.”

The Abyssal Demon Lord grew more and more astonished the more he looked, at one point doubting if he was hallucinating or had come to the wrong place.

Generally speaking, weren’t the core areas of the various otherworldly realms the liveliest?

How could such a small, peripheral place be so lively?

Looking at Wu Xian’s figure below, the Abyssal Demon Lord seemed to understand something.

“What a well-developed otherworldly Domain with complete Laws,” the Abyssal Demon Lord carefully sensed the Underworld Outpost being shaped, looking at Wu Xian with surprise. “Your creation, Little Friend?”

Wu Xian chuckled and nodded, raising his hands in a fist salute as a sign of respect. “I finally get to see Senior Demon Lord’s true face.”

“…” The Abyssal Demon Lord said meaningfully, “It’s a pity you, young man, aren’t in my Eerie Domain. How about this, I’ll personally speak to Old Brother Tianqing.”

“No, no, no,” Wu Xian chuckled, politely declining, and reminded him seriously, “You should first take a look at the situation here.”

“Hmm?” The Abyssal Demon Lord was puzzled.

Wu Xian immediately recounted the strange events that had occurred in the Insect World earlier.

“Such a thing happened?” The Abyssal Demon Lord frowned, his gaze suddenly focusing on the area where the Evil Realm had been destroyed. “This is…”

The Abyssal Demon Lord clearly detected something unusual. With a raise of his hand, the True God’s mighty power instantly sealed off that area.

A moment later, he let out a sigh of relief as if a burden had been lifted. “Interesting. I underestimated you evil creatures.”

“So that kind of power exists here too?” Wu Xian couldn’t help but ask, “May I ask, Senior, what exactly is that?”

“The power of a certain powerful evil god, quite troublesome,” the Abyssal Demon Lord didn't explain much. “Only an existence of my level can completely eradicate it. As for the Insect World, I can’t intervene there; they’ll have to wait for their Insect World to birth its own True God.”

After learning that the strange power here had been completely cleared, the worry in Wu Xian’s heart finally subsided.

At the same time, the shaping of the Netherworld’s world recommenced.

Subsequently, scenes like the Offering Pavilion, Ghost Realm Fortress, Lotus Platform, Soul Return Cliff, Bridge of Helplessness, and the River of Oblivion appeared one by one.

The Abyssal Demon Lord watched the entire process, growing more and more astonished. “It seems far more complete than I anticipated. However, the approach and conception are quite different from mine. Some of the ideas… I don’t particularly like.”

“Everyone has their own ideas,” Wu Xian said with a wry smile.

From the moment the Abyssal Demon Lord appeared, he had been secretly observing and sensing this contemporary True God.

He clearly didn’t follow the path of Chinese mythology and legends, but rather that of Greek mythology.

Coupled with the name Abyssal Demon Lord and the unique, sky-obscuring giant claw and teeth from earlier, the foundation of this True God was almost obvious.

Nine times out of ten, he was related to Tartarus, as Tartarus was originally the Incarnation of the cosmic abyss.

Of course, the current Abyssal Demon Lord was still far from the true Tartarus.

After all, Tartarus held a very high position in the Greek mythological system.

The Abyssal Demon Lord nodded slightly, then, led by Wu Xian, began to tour the Underworld Outpost. The King-Level Serpent respectfully followed behind, serving at his side.

Cui Wenxuan and Wang Fengnian, after confirming that the Abyssal Demon Lord had no malicious intent, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Your Excellency’s Qi…”

The Abyssal Demon Lord narrowed his eyes, looking at Elder Wang Fengnian.

Elder Wang Fengnian was slightly surprised, then nodded with a smile, tacitly confirming the Abyssal Demon Lord’s guess.

The Abyssal Demon Lord understood, raising his hands slightly in a fist salute to show respect.

This greatly shocked the King-Level Serpent and Xiao Dizi beside them.

One must know, that was the great Abyssal Demon Lord, one of the Four Great True Gods of this era.

Not just the King-Level Serpent, but Wu Xian and Cui Wenxuan and others were also surprised.

Was it because they had once resisted the Upper Realm?

Elder Wang Fengnian was flattered and respectfully returned the salute.

Soon after, the Abyssal Demon Lord completed his tour, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper. “There’s even a framework for Reincarnation and rebirth. Although it’s not yet perfect, it seems it can already operate to a certain extent.”

Wu Xian gave a simple and harmless smile.

Then the Abyssal Demon Lord suddenly revealed a meaningful smile. “Since that’s the case, Little Friend, you must have also noticed some of the current situations in your human world, haven’t you?”

“Are you referring to human wandering souls?” Wu Xian asked.

“Exactly,” the Abyssal Demon Lord grinned. “Go see how many you can take on. Work hard, I have high hopes for you!”

As he spoke, he patted Wu Xian’s shoulder with eyes full of approval.

Ah, finally someone could help him share this troublesome mess.

“Oh right, it’s not just your human world; the various otherworldly realms also have them. Go try to clean them up too,” the Abyssal Demon Lord said enthusiastically. “If you encounter any insoluble problems, you can come to me, and I’ll help you solve them.”

Wu Xian wasn’t foolish and quickly realized this was a thankless and troublesome task.

At least, it was for the Abyssal Demon Lord.

However, in the Netherworld, it should generate some special benefits and effects.

He would study it carefully later and decide how much he could take on based on the potential benefits.

“By the way,” the Abyssal Demon Lord changed the subject, “this sweetheart is yours, right? Name your price. I have quite a few good things in my possession.”

Hearing this, Xue Zhengying helplessly rubbed his forehead.

Wu Xian, meanwhile, chuckled inwardly. Was he trying to poach someone right to his face?

“I’m afraid that won’t do,” Wu Xian said righteously. “To be honest, my Second Brother is my wife’s elder brother; he is destined to strive for the Family’s rise and development.”

“So what?” the Abyssal Demon Lord said. “With my support, are you still worried about the Family not developing?”

Seeing that this excuse was useless, Wu Xian didn’t bother with more pleasantries. “My Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law are deeply in love and truly have no intention of coming to the Eerie Domain.”

“Alright, alright.”

The Abyssal Demon Lord sighed helplessly but did not give up.

He would pick some pretty girls in the Eerie Domain later. He didn’t believe he couldn’t poach him.
