After Du Gang entered the abyss, he did not venture too far in, but began testing out his plan from a grove of grass not far below the highlands.
His main objective was to test how much his height would change after shrinking.
However, he did not imdiately change forms after slipping into the grass. Instead, he masked his presence and quietly watched the position behind him.
About two minutes passed before the four-person crew that had previously asked if Du Gang wanted to join a team appeared. This ti, there were five of them.
“Just as I thought!”
Du Gang sneered inwardly, all their talk about one of their teammates having sothing to attend to was false━they were out to get him!
He was fairly sure that these people were sent by the Devil Region.
More than two years had passed since he left the Ancient City. Finally, the Devil Region had sent people after him!
Previously, perhaps due to being in the abyss, there were never any opportunities to make a move. Now, however, his four teammates had conveniently left, creating a perfect opportunity for the people from the Devil Region to strike.
“But this should be the limit of their power,” Du Gang estimated after a quick assessnt. The five-man team from the Devil Region wasn’t particularly strong; they were rely five manipulators.
While their collective strength was undoubtedly enough to crush him, Du Gang possessed the Jie-Character Secret. It was enough to counter and kill them. The one thing he had to ensure, however, was that the five of their deities didn’t manage to escape.
The Jie-Character Secret was his biggest secret; he had to make sure it was well hidden. He couldn’t let others know about it, most importantly, he couldn’t let the people from the Devil Region know about it!
“Where do you think that guy went?” One of the five from the Devil Region asked.
“I don’t know, he went into the abyss on his own, didn’t he?” Another replied.
Having dropped their disguises, they were speaking openly about their plans.
Du Gang continued sneering, but he didn’t make any moves. He had no intention of revealing himself just yet and decided to wait for the group to leave before he proceeded with his experint.
“Tread, tread.”
The five n seed genuinely perplexed about why Du Gang would go into the abyss alone—they hurried along the path at a steady pace.
Hold on a second!
Watching their leisurely pace, Du Gang noticed sothing amiss.
If they were here to kill , they would be moving faster. Their conversation must be for to hear. They’ve found !
The mont this thought crossed his mind, Du Gang instantly sprang into action. His body tensed, his muscles contracted, and he swiftly made his way to the rear.
Almost instantaneously, just as he began his retreat, all five of them attacked simultaneously. The impact waves of their assault, potent and intense, ca crashing towards the grove where Du Gang was hiding.
“Boom boom boom!”
In the blink of an eye, the grove where Du Gang had been hiding was bombed into oblivion, leaving the area bare.
“He’s dodged it. Continue the attack!!
One of the assailants roared, rapidly rushing towards Du Gang. The other four followed, closing in on him from four different directions.
“What now?”
At this mont, Du Gang was torn between two thoughts. The first was to flee and seek help from others, preferably from the Demon Suppression Army, guaranteeing his safety.
The second was to unleash the Jie-Character Secret to defeat his enemies. This action, however, could potentially expose his strength. If he made a move, he had to ensure the deities of these five attackers couldn’t escape.
“Divine beings!”
“Swoosh swoosh!”
Five divine beings appeared instantaneously, hurling towards Du Gang.
Seeing this, Du Gang felt a thrill of anticipation. However, he didn’t give anything away. Instead, he also summoned his divine being.
Wait for them to draw closer, and then catch them all in one fell swoop!
Although Du Gang was excited inwardly, he disguised his feelings well under a pretense of fear and shouted, “What do you want? We’re all humans…”
“Ha ha!”
It seed as if these five n could already envision Du Gang’s impending defeat. They laughed, “Soone paid us to end your life. Rest assured, we’ll make it quick.”
So, that’s how it is!
Du Gang had initially mistaken these n as representatives of the Devil Region. It now appeared they were simply hired hands of the Devil Region.
In a panicked tone, he said, “Who put a price on my head? I’ll pay double, just don’t kill … I’m an Ancient God, and I know the location of the Ancient Gods’ native land. It’s full of treasures, enough to buy ten Ancient Cities!”
At his words, the five n were visibly shaken, exchanging intrigued glances.
Their mont of interest, however, was fleeting. One of them regained his composure and resolutely shook his head, “No way. If we spare you, you would surely reach out to the people of the Ancient City. By then, forget about the Ancient Gods’ native land, we five would likely end up dead!”
With his words, the remaining four n gained clarity as well.
Indeed, no matter the offer Du Gang made, they couldn’t dare to accept it. The risk was too high. Now, once they assassinated him, nobody would cause them any trouble, and they could safely claim the bounty,
A look of despair flashed across Du Gang’s eyes as he asked resentfully, “Who wants dead and exactly how much is my life worth to them?”
The five n were moving quickly, enclosing Du Gang in their circle. Confident that he couldn’t escape, the leader of the group laughed, “We don’t know who wants you dead, but we can tell you how much you’re worth dead…”
“One hundred million Divine Crystals!”
One hundred million Divine Crystals!
Du Gang was taken aback—he had never imagined that he was worth so much. He was rely Rank 1 God Spirit Level being; a bounty of one hundred million Divine Crystals could lure powerful beings of the Nine-Tribulation God Spirit, or even those at the True God Level!
It’s a good thing we’re in the abyss!
He let out a sigh of relief and quietly activated the Jie-Character Secret.
“Boom!”
In the blink of an eye, he extended his Divine Thought, sweeping it in all directions.
After a tenfold increase, his forrly impotent Divine Thought now had a tenfold increase in perception power. While he could not perceive directly, he was aware that aside from these five n, no one else had their sights set on him.
“Ha ha!”
Du Gang suddenly laughed out loud as the divine beings of his enemies closed in on him, preparing to execute their attack.
“What are you laughing at?!”
The man at the forefront had already unleashed an attack with almost 80 Naer’s worth of Divine Power. He was surprised by Du Gang’s response.
“Die!”
Du Gang completely ignored the attack coming his way, focusing most of his attention on his divine being.
He had to ensure that all five of these divine beings were killed!
“Boom!”
At that mont, his divine being released an intense surge of power. A golden divine light erupted, spreading all around.
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”
Five consecutive blasts echoed. At the very sa mont, the five divine beings that were swarming Du Gang disintegrated.
“Splurt!” “Splurt!” “Splurt!”
The five people on the ground simultaneously spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
“God…”
Their eyes were filled with rage, their heads splitting with indescribable pain, their gods had sohow died in an instant.
“How is this possible?!!”
The five of them were shocked beyond belief.
“Boom!”
At that very mont, five extrely powerful divine force attacks that originated from their own bodies struck Du Gang.
However, what utterly terrified them was the sight of Du Gang emitting a golden light at the blink of an eye.
“Thump thump thump!”
The five attacks landed on his body, but instead of causing any damage, they produced five weirdly muffled sounds.
“My God, he’s unscathed!!!”
The five deflated in disbelief. So of them rubbed their eyes, unable to trust their own sight.
“How could this be, he is clearly just like us, rely a Rank One God Spirit…”
“This is only the first layer of the Abyss!”
In the first layer of the Abyss, aside from Rank One God Spirits, the quantity of Second and Third Tribulation God Spirits is strictly limited, and all can only appear on three major roads.
“Hahaha!”
Without paying attention to their shock, Du Gang laughed and imdiately rushed towards them. Moreover, his God moved at this mont.
A tenfold increase in combat power ant that his strength, speed, divine power, Deity, and Divine thought, all increased tenfold. He was invincible in speed. The five of them didn’t even have the chance to react before they were swiftly killed by Du Gang one after another.
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”
Five explosions rang out, and the five directly transford into dust.
“Don’t kill !”
At this point, five Divine Thoughts floated out from the five bodies, this was their last hope.
When their God perishes, the Divine Thought within their body is their last lifeline. As long as they maintain this Divine Thought and practice diligently, they would slowly cultivate a new God. But if this also perishes, then they would truly die, eradicated from body to soul!
“Poof!” “Poof!” “Poof!” “Poof!”
Without any hesitation, Du Gang reached out and instantly eliminated four of the Divine Thoughts.
These Divine Thoughts could quickly move when their God exists and were practically unhindered. But now, with their God dead and their Divine Thoughts losing their power source, they were like fallen leaves disconnected from the tree trunk, unable to absorb nutrients and escape. The four Divine Thoughts were extinguished without any resistance, reducing to ashes, leaving behind the trembling team leader.
“Don’t kill , please, I beg you, I’ll tell you anything you want!”
In his intense fear, the team leader began pleading piteously, his last thread of Divine Thought vividly took the form of him bowing down on his knees.
“Please, don’t kill , hand over to the Demon Suppression Army, let them deal with …”
In this mont, he preferred to be a prisoner under the steps, preferred to be cannon fodder, rather face punishnt in the cannon fodder camp than die at the hands of Du Gang.
In the Primordial Continent, nearly all the big powers basically had these cannon fodder camp systems, specifically aid at imprisoning and enslaving these criminals.
After all, these guys were all gods, it would be too wasteful to simply kill them, better to send them to the Abyss as cannon fodder.
Du Gang chuckled lightly, saying, “Whether I kill you or not, it depends on how much you cooperate. So spit it out, what’s going on?”
The Captain didn’t dare to act dishonestly at this mont; he didn’t have the audacity to threaten Du Gang with statents like ‘If you don’t promise not to kill , I won’t talk.’
Like soone on truth serum, he spilled all he knew as quickly as a bullet.
“Here’s what happened. About a day ago, soone approached us, wanting us to help kill a person…”
“To kill you… the price offered was ten million Divine Crystals!”
Du Gang frowned, “And you just believed it that easily?”
The Captain nodded, “The person who found us was from the Devil’s Domain, possessing a Devil Region Token. He gave us so benefits on the spot, about ten thousand Divine Crystals per person…”
Upon hearing this, Du Gang was taken aback, “Empty your valuable possessions out now!”
At this mont, the Captain just wanted to stay alive, he didn’t dare to disobey and imdiately began retrieving items from his internal world.
Although his God Spirit and physical body were dead, his Divine Thought was still present and still bearing his unique soul imprint, thus it wasn’t difficult for him to take out things from his internal world.
“Divine Crystals, energy sources, Rune Stones, Divine Power Pills…”
Du Gang roughly inspected and found that they were basically items that God Spirit Level warriors could use. Their total value was around ten thousand Divine Crystals.
He felt a bit regretful, as he had been too hasty earlier and destroyed the Divine Thoughts of the other four, resulting in the loss of the things in their inner worlds. Even though they were as tiny as mosquitoes, but they were still at, at least worth forty thousand Divine Crystals.
After storing these items, Du Gang didn’t bother asking whether or not the Captain had any more things in his internal world. Instead, he asked, “What does the person that approached you look like? Who is he?”
The Captain hurriedly replied, “The person found us at a tavern, wearing a faceless mask, so we didn’t get to see his appearance. But he had a faint body odor, like a fox. Even though he tried to cover it up with strong perfu, it was still noticeable…”
Wearing a faceless mask with a fox-like body odor and using perfu to cover it up.
Du Gang nodded secretly, this feature was relatively easy to recognize. He asked again, “What’s your contact thod if the assassination was successful?”
The Captain hesitated for a second, then bit his teeth and said, “You have to promise , after I tell you… You won’t kill !”
Du Gang responded instantly, “Don’t worry, as long as you tell , I will hand you over to the Demon Suppression Army. You can slowly reform in the cannon fodder camp!”
Upon hearing this, although the Captain felt that the cannon fodder camp might be uncomfortable, he was relieved to at least not die.
He then answered, “The thod of contact is simple. We just need to complete the task. We’re supposed to go to a tavern in the abyss with your corpse… In the southeast corner, there’s an always open window on the second floor. The rendezvous point is in that room…”
“The secret knock on the door is, ‘dong, dong dong, dong dong dong~~~!’”
“The passphrase is, ‘Mountains exhaust and waters end, desolate path unknown, in Dream Building another vacancy is shown.’”
The Captain added, “No need to bring the corpse. They need us to bring a Recording Stone with footage of the assassination scene, the death of the God Spirit, as well as the physical and Divine Thought for verification…”
Du Gang nodded and asked, “You guys are not from the Ancient City, are you?”
The Captain shook his head, “No…”
As the words fell, Du Gang suddenly flicked his finger. A flash of golden light burst out and in the very next mont, the Captain’s remaining Divine Thought exploded.
“Sorry, I lied to you. My apologies…”
“I lied about sending you to the cannon fodder camp… I lied!”
Du Gang smiled faintly, cleaned up the corpses around him a bit, and quickly moved away from the location.
As for the karmic forces from lying, he was not afraid. He already had countless tangled souls swallowed by the entropy realm around him, what was one more to him?
With this thought, he grinned, “If you co haunting as a restless soul seeking revenge, I will kill you again!”
PS: I originally thought about writing more quantity, then a certain deity woke up with a statent. “Do you want to be a volu writer like before, or do you want to beco a real author, a deity who can make big money by writing very few words every day?” After all, I’m not an eagle with a strong global control. Writing thirty thousand words a day as an orange cat is too easy to collapse. So, starting from tomorrow, I’ll write as much as I can on the basis of ten thousand words a day.
