Ye Cang could clearly feel the raised lines under his palms, the patterns on the gates above the towers, like intertwined vines, combined into a mysterious pattern, connecting something to each other.

In a daze, the tip of his tongue suddenly numb as if being stabbed by something, Ye Cang immediately regained his senses, and took a step back at the same time.

As his hand left, the faint starlight that was originally shining on the door seemed to also dim.

But it still stood silently in front of Ye Cang, waiting for its master.

【Host? 】

The system issued a puzzled question.

Ye Cang's lost body is inside, it belongs to Ye Cang, and it should be retrieved.So, now, why did he stay here hesitating and concentrating?

If it's not because of the door itself, then it's because behind the door... Is there anything?

Various glass shards were still falling in the air, and when no one noticed, one of the shards reflected a strange scene.

That is not the projection of any "world", but a certain "memory" of the black abyss itself——

The black fog churning in the background is like the end of the world, and the world is ushering in the majestic wrath of the gods.

The man opened his dark purple eyes, embraced a icy body that had lost his soul, jumped down from the huge crack, and fell into the abyss without hesitation... to return God's beloved son.

Then, accept God's punishment.

At this moment, this man—not as the supreme leader of the Demon Race, but merely as an accessory of the person in his arms, like a pendant or ornament casually worn by the Son of God, has become the most special sacrifice in the history of Hei Abyss Taste.

"I will return with him."

The entire demon clan failed to keep him.

The last words disappeared at the end of the abyss along with the figure of the man, and they were never seen again for thousands of years.

Ye Cang didn't notice the fleeting scene on this fragment, and his expression was a little puzzled and surprised.

The lives of demons are very long. He thought that the retired kings should be like him, hiding somewhere to retire comfortably.So he was obsessed with the whereabouts of that person, but the facts seemed to be different from what he imagined.

At this moment, another batch of falling fragments attracted him. The background of these fragments is all a palace, which is the first layer of the black abyss that Ye Cang passed by briefly before.

However, in the reflected scenes, the originally empty palace has become extremely lively.People in different costumes and skin colors are walking or fleeing through the huge palace.

Ye Cang was sure that these people were not clones of the black abyss like the head maid and gardener before, but genuine outsiders. He even saw an acquaintance from inside

—…Nighthawk?

The mercenary with a familiar face was running fast on the clean and immaculate floor tiles. In front of him was a dark side door.

Although he was hesitating, he finally gritted his teeth and rushed in, as if there was something behind him forcing him to move forward.

How could Nighthawk be here.

Ye Cang's mind turned quickly. He didn't know the exact time outside, but the feast of the black abyss should have started. The feast of the black abyss will open the underground palace... Wait, the underground palace?

Although it's just a guess, could it be... that the underground palace, which is called in general, actually refers to the first floor of the Black Abyss?

The spotless palace in the fragments has already been stained with bright blood.

Ye Cang glanced at the door behind him, turned around and left suddenly.

As his back walked away, his aura completely disappeared in front of the door.

Behind the door, the devil king who had been waiting for a long time moved his fingertips, and the cold door took away the last remaining warmth.

A sigh suddenly sounded in the silent space.

"It's me... I can't wait too much."

[But I want to see you so badly. ]

"So, I will go to meet you in person."

[Wait for me, soon...]

He pressed his forehead against the cold door, and the corners of his lips curved like kissing his beloved.

"……My master."

[my king]

We will meet again.

……

When Ye Cang rushed to the first floor of Heiyuan, he obviously felt a different atmosphere from usual.

It is no longer the cold silence of the original nothingness, but the hustle and bustle full of manic depression, anxiety, and madness.

A dark-skinned man ran past him at high speed, waving his arms wildly, and shouted with a broken expression: "I've been lied to, I've been lied to!"

"This is not a gold placer, but...hell!"

A deafening roar came from behind.

The desperate man rushed straight ahead into a dark passage, very similar to the situation Ye Cang saw in the fragments of Nighthawk.

The figure of the man quickly disappeared into the dark road. Ye Cang, who was standing there, never let him stop for even a second, but when he passed by him, he tremblingly left a sentence with the despair of a rabbit dying like a fox. "Run away".

Ye Cang didn't move.

As the roar approached, the vibration on the ground became stronger and stronger.

A few seconds later, a huge figure rushed out from the corner.

It was a knight covered in pitch-black armor several meters high, the only face exposed was a skeleton, two groups of flames were burning in the eyes, and a giant sword taller than himself was carried on his shoulder.

This is a monster born of itself from the chaotic black abyss.They cannot be regarded as living beings, they exist attached to the black abyss, they are believers and protectors.

Ye Cang waited quietly on the spot, but the undead knight stopped suddenly in front of him.

The knight stared closely at Ye Cang, his tall body cast a shadow, which was extremely oppressive.

But immediately, the two flames around its eyes shook rapidly and violently, the sword tightly held in its hand was put down without hesitation, and it knelt down on one knee.

There was a powerful clang between the armor and the ground.

Even the kneeling undead knight is still more than a head taller than Ye Cang, but it is this difference in body size, like a mountain bowing its head to a stream, that makes people feel several times stronger shock.I just don't know how the man who ran away just now would feel if he saw this scene.

"Have you met this man?"

When Ye Cang raised his hand, a piece of glass shards that shouldn't appear here appeared out of thin air.

Seeing this, the undead knight bowed his head even more in awe, because as long as Ye Cang slightly shatters the glass, the area of ​​the dungeon reflected in it will be canceled forever. Naturally, the "monsters" and "braves who broke into the palace" listed in it will also disappear.

Like the gods manipulating everything on the clouds, it is so illusory that it is unreal.

"&*¥#&*"

After a burst of hoarse and chaotic raving, the undead knight carefully looked at the mercenary who appeared most frequently inside, and gave a negative answer.

"That's it..." Ye Cang nodded, "I'm looking for him, please let me know if you have any news."

The undead knight nodded without hesitation.

It wasn't until Ye Cang's back was completely invisible that the undead knight who was kneeling on the ground stood up, raised his head and let out a roar.

As a result, the undead knights in the entire underground palace dug three feet into the ground, frantically looking for Nighthawk.

Nighthawk: ...? ? !

Nighthawk was running for his life.

It was a strangely shaped monster, like lions, elephants, foxes, rabbits... and other animals, tearing out different parts and splicing them together crookedly, like a distorted black movie. fairy tale.

The light cannon he held tightly in his hand charged quickly, he gasped for breath a few times, gritted his teeth and pressed the attack button.

This is the last shot.

Under the bombardment of the light cannon, the monster was scattered into a twisted black mist, but after a while of tumbling, it immediately condensed back to its original posture, and even expanded a circle.

— Immortal.

It's really not dead.

The outside world said that the secret of "immortality" is hidden in the black abyss. No one is not moved by it. Countless people speculate that it may be a bottle of medicine that can make people live forever. There is only this bottle in the world, and it can only be taken by one person, etc... They imagined it with countless strict conditions, and described it as a treasure that exists in the sky and exists in the earth.

But in fact, the so-called "immortality", under the black abyss, is a characteristic of every monster, like a bad street!

Nighthawk threw away the light cannon that was out of ammunition and food in his hand, and all the equipment on his body had been exhausted in the long escape.

The monster had already rushed towards him, and the only equipment left in his hand was a primitive dagger.

There are countless strategies that can be adopted in the mind in an instant, but the survival rate in the end is all zero.

Just when he was holding a dying mentality and passively giving it a go, the monster rushing towards him was slammed away by another equally huge figure. The knight in pitch-black armor blocked the monster from tearing to the ground with a long sword. The extreme mouth stuck the sharp teeth.

"...What?" Nighthawk's eyes widened.

The monster let out an angry roar like a question, and raised its claws and claws towards the undead knight.

Nighthawk froze in place, this is internal strife...! ?

But immediately, the monster's eyes met the swaying firelight of the undead knight, and the two equally tall "creatures" suddenly stopped.

At that moment, the Nighthawk had a creepy suspicion that they were communicating.

They are not without intelligence, they have their own language and will, and they have... infinite possibilities for evolution.

I don't know what they "talked" about. The monster that was aggressively chasing him suddenly left with the undead knight. Frustrated, like a child who suddenly realizes that he has made a mistake.

This is too weird, Nighthawk thought so, but his body had already slid down the wall like a collapse, and collapsed on the ground.

"You are indeed here."

A familiar voice suddenly came.

Nighthawk's pupils shrank suddenly, he gritted his teeth and turned his head, and saw Ye Cang walking slowly from a distance.

"Two 'good-hearted people' told me about your whereabouts. I didn't expect you to run quite far."

Except for Ye Cang, no one knew that the first floor was not only a palace, but also a maze.The current Nighthawk has infinitely approached the core area of ​​the maze, which can be said to be a very remarkable record.

However, this is not a good thing, because the elite rations who arrive at the core area—when they think they have escaped the monsters full of palaces and weep with joy, they will welcome the "god" of these monsters, and after the harvest comes from hope, Extreme despair.

That is - to become a sacrifice for Heiyuan's personal blessing.

But Ye Cang didn't plan to tell Nighthawk about these things.

"Why are you here?" Nighthawk couldn't believe it. "I couldn't find you when I got up in the morning. I, I thought you..."

"You thought I was scared, so I quit halfway?" Ye Cang asked calmly.

Ye Ying, who had been guessed, touched his nose, but immediately realized that he was very excited and pulled the corner of his clothes.

"Listen to me, we were all deceived. There are no treasures in this palace at all, only a group of monsters that are completely invincible! I suspect that we were sacrificed to them by the demons at all, and they didn't intend to let We get out alive!!"

This time it was Ye Cang who was surprised, because Nighthawk guessed it right.

Ye Cang had thought about it on the way here, and he finally came to the same conclusion as Nighthawk.

Demons have had the custom of offering sacrifices to Heiyuan since ancient times, just like people in ancient times feared the heaven and earth, and would sacrifice living people to the mountain gods in the face of excessive power.

This situation has been greatly improved after the birth of Ye Cang, and was even banned for a time. However, it is obvious that after Ye Cang left, he came back again, and even completely intensified.

but--

"There are indeed treasures here, this is not a lie."

Ye Cang looked at him meaningfully, "It's just that the progress of exploration is not deep enough. If you can go to a lower level, you will see a whole new world."

"...What?" Nighthawk stared blankly at him.

Ye Cang showed a look of reminiscence: "In the sea of ​​flames that stretches to the sky, there is a treasure house of a glorious era sleeping in it, money and wealth, peerless weapons, shining like stars."

It's on the second floor of the black abyss, not close, not far.

He held out his hand to Nighthawk, "As a reward for your arrival here, do you want to go and have a look?"

God's beloved Son extended an invitation to him.
