Start from Panlong and kill through the heavens

Chapter 166 Endless Abyss, Familiar

After confirming Li En's identity, the Lord of Cangming Mansion was extremely respectful.

Are you kidding? This is a terrifying and powerful master who has reached the state of great perfection!

In the vast underworld, there are only a few powerful masters who have reached the state of great perfection. Any one of them has the power to kill Lord Cangming with ease. Although Lord Cangming is also the messenger of the main god, he does not have the courage to offend a master of great perfection.

After Li En explained his purpose, Lord Cangming did not hide anything and told him all the information he knew about the Lord God, including the 'Lord God of the Dark Night' he served.

Li En declined the hospitality offered by Lord Cangming. After a brief stay in the other's castle, he took Lin Lei and the others and left.

With his current status, it is a complete honor for the Lord Cangming to be able to visit him. This is something that the Lord Cangming can definitely brag about for a long time.

“Father, where should we go first?” Linley and the others in the sword-shaped metal life looked at Rean, asking for his advice.

The Lord of Cangming Palace listed the residences of the three main gods in one breath. One was the Nether Mountain where the Lord of Death lived, the second was the 'Endless Abyss' where the Lord of Night lived, and the last was the 'Cangming Blood Sea' where a main god was suspected to live.

"Let's go to the Endless Abyss." Li En made the decision without thinking too much. He didn't want to go to the Nether Mountain for the time being. The Dark Blood Sea might not have the main god living there, so going to the Endless Abyss was undoubtedly the best choice.

Linley and the others naturally had no objections, and they rushed towards the Endless Abyss at top speed.

The endless abyss is located in the 'Xuanming Mansion' in the middle of the underworld. It is an extremely special area. It looks like a bottomless cemetery from the outside, but deep in the cemetery is a distorted space with an extremely terrifying power.

However, a large amount of black crystals would be spewed out from the bottom of the abyss every once in a while. People called these crystals Nether Crystals.

There is nothing special about the Nether Crystal. It is exactly the same as the Nether Stone, but the power of the God of Death contained within it is dozens or hundreds of times richer than that of the Nether Stone.

If extracting a drop of the Lord God's power using Nether Stones requires tens of trillions or even hundreds of trillions of Nether Stones, then using this Nether Crystal only requires one trillion.

And the amount of dark crystals spewed out by the Endless Abyss every time could reach hundreds of trillions, or even more!

This can be said to be a feast in the underworld. As long as the endless abyss erupts, it will attract countless powerful people to come and compete for the underworld crystals.

However, after endless years, a large number of families gathered around the abyss and controlled a large area where the abyss was located. It became extremely difficult for outsiders to obtain the Nether Crystal.

Among the thirteen most powerful families, four of them have the support of the main god, and the other nine either have a group of Shuras and seven-star demons, or have great perfections, and they are not easy to mess with.

After half a year of travel, Li En and others finally arrived at the territory of Xuanming Mansion. However, what surprised them was that they met an acquaintance just after arriving at the border of Xuanming Mansion.

In the Nubian Mountains, two large gangs of bandits were fighting each other. There were tens of thousands of people on both sides, most of whom were lower-level gods, a small number were middle-level gods, and even hundreds of upper-level gods.

A bandit gang of this size is considered very powerful even in the entire underworld, but for Rean and others, it is still just a small fight.

Just as Rean was about to control the metal life to fly past quickly, Lin Lei, who was emitting spiritual consciousness, suddenly spoke in surprise.

"It's actually him?"

The metal lifeforms slowed down instantly. Li En and the others all looked at Linley. Bei Bei asked in surprise, “Boss, is there anyone you know here?”

“It’s Vincent Hyde,” Linley nodded. “He’s the patriarch of the Hyde family who helped me forge the ‘Edgeless’ heavy sword. But I heard he died before we entered Hell.”

"I didn't expect his soul to enter the underworld and actually reach the divine realm. He must have awakened his memories of his past life," Linley sighed. "Since he's an acquaintance, we need to go down and help him." Rean nodded, sheathed his metal lifeforms, and the seven of them flew towards the bandit army below.

“Father, you two wait here. I’ll go down and bring Vincent up.” Linley said to Rean and the others. They were just a bunch of bandits; he didn’t take them seriously.

"Boss, I'll go with you." Beibei was also eager to try. He must have been bored from the long journey.

Li En naturally wouldn't stop them. With Linley and Beibei's strength, they would have no problem dealing with a group of bandits.

Watching Linley and Beibei charging towards the bandit army below, Liliana, standing nearby, wide-eyed, said with a smile, “Brother-in-law, could there be some powerful hidden warriors among those bandits?”

Before Rean could say anything, Catherine pinched Liliana's cheek and said with a smile, "They are just a group of bandits. What powerful people can they hide? Do you think a Shura-level being would become a bandit?"

Irelia beside her also smiled and shook her head, obviously thinking that Liliana's question was a bit naive. It would be the best if there was an ordinary seven-star demon among the bandits, how could there be a Shura.

However, at this moment, Li En raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled without saying a word.

In the crowd below, two groups of bandits were engaged in a fierce battle, but they paused because of the sudden appearance of Linley and Beibei. The two groups quickly separated, and then all looked at Linley and Beibei as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

In the crowd, Vincent stared at Linley in mid-air with wide eyes, his face filled with astonishment.

“Is it… Lin Lei from the Baruch family?” Although Vincent found it hard to believe, he still remembered what Lin Lei looked like. Besides, no one in the underworld would transform into Lin Lei’s appearance to tease him.

“This Linley exudes a powerful aura. He’s probably not a mid-level god, but a high-level god.” Vincent was shocked. He couldn’t believe that Linley had reached the high-level god realm in just over a thousand years.

However, when Vincent saw that Linley and the other two had actually flown directly in front of the bandit army, he was still worried for them. Among this group of bandits, there were hundreds of Higher Gods.

However, just as the bandit leader stepped forward to rebuke Linley and the others, Linley simply released a burst of earth-yellow divine power, which immediately sent the two bandit leaders flying.

This move frightened all the bandits present. The two bandit leaders were both top-level six-star demons. They could easily shock them both away, so they could naturally kill them easily.

"This... must be a seven-star demon, or even a Shura-level strongman!" The robbers looked at each other, extremely shocked in their hearts.

“Vicente, long time no see.” Linley ignored the bandits and flew directly to Vincent.

“You… you’re really Lin Lei?” Vincent was incredulous. Could this terrifying and powerful being before him really be the genius Lin Lei from the Magnolia Continent?

“Of course it’s me.” Linley smiled, then glanced at the surrounding bandits and said, “This isn’t the place to talk. Come with us. If you have any friends or relatives, take them with you.”

Vincent naturally had no objection. He had long wanted to escape this precarious life of a bandit. He had no friends or relatives, so he simply prepared to leave with Linley and the others.

Originally, Beibei was still feeling dissatisfied because he didn't have the chance to take action, but at this moment, Rean in the sky suddenly appeared silently in front of the group of robbers.

His gaze fell directly on the crowd, and he looked at one of the black-haired young men with interest.

"Soul mutant?"
