Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Betrayal
Song Jian didn’t know how much ti had passed before he finally woke up, surveyed his condition and found the Ant Emperor Ancestor Set broken beyond recognition. Almost all components were down to less than 10 durability. If he didn’t repair them soon, the set, which is of epic level, might beco unusable.
“Did I, did I actually survive?” Song Jian exclaid in surprise. His Vitality Points had dropped below the danger level, but the passive ability “Enemy of Death God” hadn’t been triggered yet.
“It seems that I survived, thanks largely to this armor.” Thought Song Jian, sowhat relieved.
The Ant Emperor Ancestor Set, each individual piece is of gold rank, wearing the complete set, supplented by its set attributes, is completely on par with epic equipnt.
Song Jian credited his survival largely to this set of armor.
Looking around at the hall, it was a total ss. There were broken rocks everywhere and many parts of the surrounding rock walls had collapsed. A charred, sturdy tree trunk stood before his eyes.
“The Abyssal Demon Tree…” Song Jian looked sowhat speechlessly at the charred remains of the tree in front of him. The massive demonic tree, which had towered over fifteen ters high, was now reduced to an under two ters high trunk. Around it lay charred remains scattered, all chopped and burnt to a crisp by countless slices of Sword Qi.
“A level thirty-five elite BOSS with peak first tier Combat Power was slain just like that!” Song Jian’s face darkened. Even he would not dare to provoke such a BOSS, yet it was instantly killed here.
“A world that could possibly possess third tier Combat Power…” Song Jian sighed. Ever since he entered this world, he had encountered too many strong opponents, leaving him a bit numb.
“Where’s the Abyssal Demon Lord? Surely it couldn’t have been slain as well?” Song Jian frowned, starting to search around.
The entire Sealing Array targeted the Abyssal Demon Lord. Almost over ninety percent of its power was used to counter it. Song Jian rely endured so aftershocks and despite that, he almost died.
“The damage must have reached the second tier, otherwise wouldn’t end up in such a sorry state!” Song Jian thought.
Looking at the Abyss Contract he had signed, it was still effective. Apparently, the Abyssal Demon Lord and the Blade of the Abyss were still alive if they hadn’t been for the appearance of Song Jian, and after more than a hundred years, the strength of the Blade of the Abyss would have been exhausted. Even with the demon tree, it wouldn’t have survived when the Sealing Array collapsed.
“I… I survived, haha, I survived!” An exhausted voice echoed in the hall.
The phantom of the Abyssal Demon Lord again appeared in the air of the hall, but at this point, his phantom was so weak that it was almost invisible.
The crimson eyes stared at Song Jian, scrutinizing his current state.
“Human, you did well!” The Blade of the Abyss chuckled.
Swish~
Under the remnant of the withered Abyssal Demon Tree in the ruins, a demonic heart that was only a third of its original size rolled out.
The surging purple-black blood flowed out from this broken heart and quickly gathered into a mass. A nude middle-aged man then stepped out from the pool of blood.
He beckoned with his right hand, and an endless stream of black abyssal qi gathered around him, coalescing into a black armor around him.
“I like how I am now, this is reminiscent of my joyful conquering days in this world a thousand years ago!” The Abyssal Demon Lord said to Song Jian with a laugh.
The Abyssal Demon Lord at this mont was probably at its weakest primit, but its aura still maintained a first-tier caliber, completely unlike it’s weak form when it just escaped from the Sealed Tower. He was as suave as a distinguished noble.
“Now it’s your turn to fulfill the contract!” Song Jian was on guard, holding the “Great Sun Golden Light Sword Array” in his hand, prepared to deal a fatal blow to the Abyssal Demon Lord at any ti.
Although the current Abyssal Demon Lord didn’t seem to show any weakness, its strength was still at a first-tier level. Song Jian might not be outmatched against it.
“Humans, yes, now it is my turn to fulfill the content of the contract, but…” The Abyssal Demon Lord showed a smile and said, “I’m too weak. As you can feel, my strength is less than one-thousandth of my peak status. It’s really hard for to fulfill the contract with my current strength. I’m afraid I’ll need a long ti to recover…”
Song Jian’s heart sank and a mocking sneer appeared on his mouth. As expected, dealing with an abyss demon ans being prepared for them to back out at any mont.
“So, you have no intention of fulfilling the contract?” Song Jian asked.
“Of course not, the Abyss Contract must be kept.” The Abyssal Demon Lord laughed elegantly, “It’s just as I said before, I need ti to recover, a lot of… ti.”
Song Jian’s face turned pale, and his eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent. Originally, he had always felt guilty and uneasy about releasing this Abyssal Demon Lord. If it really had no intention of fulfilling the contract, he wouldn’t hesitate to kill it on the spot.
“I’ve killed a monster with first-tier Combat Power before, and I can just figure sothing else out for the evaluation mission…” Song Jian gritted his teeth, gripping the “Great Sun Golden Light Sword Array”, ready to give the Abyssal Demon Lord a harsh blow.
“However, if you help , my recovery ti could be significantly reduced!” The Abyssal Demon Lord seed to sense sothing and hurriedly said.
Song Jian paused, and asked, “Help you, how can I help you?”
“You were attacked by the Sealed Tower because it mistook you for a creature of the abyss due to an abyssal treasure, right!” The Abyssal Demon Lord laughed, “As long as you give that abyssal treasure to , I can regain my strength quickly and then help you retrieve the object you want from the Qingyun Sword Sect. This will save a lot of recovery ti, and thereby saving you a lot of ti as well. It’s a good deal, isn’t it?”
Song Jian suddenly realized that this Abyssal Demon Lord was eyeing his Book of the Abyss. Could it be any more…?
“Are you talking about this?” Song Jian took out the Book of the Abyss from his package. A strong black aura emanated from the Book of the Abyss. A look of ecstasy appeared on the face of the Abyssal Demon Lord, and he nodded repeatedly.
“Yes, it is this one. As long as you give it to , I can regain my strength in the shortest ti possible. Then I can help you…”
“Perhaps, I don’t need to give it to you, and you can directly regain your peak strength!” Song Jian glanced at the Abyssal Demon Lord, opened the Book of the Abyss, and his gaze fell on the second tier of the Book of the Abyss Skill Tree.
