Crossing the World of Warcraft: I am an Ancient God

The strange entity seemed to sense the threat posed by Zoval, and its originally soft, jelly-like body suddenly began to tremble violently. In the blink of an eye, the jellies that had been scattered all over the body suddenly gathered towards a single point in the center of the body, as if being pulled by a powerful force.

In just a moment, the point of convergence became extremely clear, and a bottomless black vortex suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes. This vortex was like a bottomless pit, and the darkness in the middle was extremely deep, as if it could swallow everything.

"Is this the so-called lower abyss?" Yun looked at the black vortex in front of him, a look of doubt appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself.

Winali, standing nearby, was also staring intently at the black vortex. Her brow furrowed slightly as she said thoughtfully, "It looks like it should be correct, but this thing doesn't seem to have any suction power. Could it have some special attack method? Otherwise, wouldn't it be too strange for it to have no effect at all?"

Just as the two were discussing the purpose of this black vortex, the strange entity quickly answered their questions with practical actions.

Suddenly, a black line shot out from the center of the black vortex without any warning. This black line was like lightning, piercing straight towards the gray-blue energy body created by Zoval at an astonishing speed.

The black line moved at an astonishing speed. The gray-blue energy body didn't even have time to react before it was pierced through the shoulder. Then, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded—as if controlled by an invisible force, the gray-blue energy body began to twist along the black line and, in a strange manner, slowly moved toward the black vortex.

Yun was stunned by the scene before him, and secretly exclaimed in his heart: "This thing is really not simple!" He had previously felt that Zoval's method of dealing with the monster was a bit perfunctory, but now it seemed that the speed of this black line was far beyond his imagination. He was afraid that even he himself would find it difficult to avoid it. If he really did what Zoval meant, he would be fooled again. Fortunately, he was not so easily fooled this time.

However, Yun was also a little worried. Zoval had his own way. If it were him alone, even if he used the invincible skill, once he was hit by the black line, he would probably be dragged into the black vortex. Yun also wondered what he could do?

Just as Yun was worried, the gray-blue energy body suddenly split apart without warning. The part that had been pulled by the black line was directly separated from the body. Nearly a quarter of the body was instantly swallowed by the black line and dragged into the black vortex.

However, surprisingly, at that moment, gray-blue energy suddenly emerged from Frostmourne, replenishing the energy body like a spring. In the blink of an eye, the energy body not only returned to its original state, but even grew slightly larger than before.

Seeing this, Yun couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, they've been through so many years of battle, they're truly incredibly experienced!" He was deeply impressed by Zoval's decisive decision to split his body and sacrifice his rook to save his king in such a critical moment. A moment's hesitation would have had disastrous consequences.

At the same time, Yun's curiosity was piqued. He couldn't wait to see how Zoval would handle this formidable black vortex. After all, not only was it impossible to get close to it, but the black line's long-range attack also presented an extremely difficult problem.

The gray-blue energy body held Frostmourne in its hand, and its size expanded again. Without hesitation, it inserted Frostmourne into the Nether Iron, effortlessly lifting it up. Then, the gray-blue energy body suddenly threw the Nether Iron at the strange body, smashing it straight into it with a fierce momentum.

Just as the Netherworld Iron was about to strike the strange object, a black line suddenly appeared, like a flash of black lightning, striking the Netherworld Iron fiercely. However, this time the impact did not cause the same massive distortion as before, merely slowing the Netherworld Iron slightly. Soon, more black lines appeared, like a group of hungry pythons, swooping down on the Netherworld Iron with bared fangs and claws. They gradually wrapped around the Netherworld Iron, wrapping it tightly. Then, these black lines began to slowly pull the Netherworld Iron towards the black vortex.

Just as the Nether Iron was pulled in front of the black vortex, the black thread sawed off a small piece of the Nether Iron. This piece of Nether Iron was instantly swallowed by the black vortex and disappeared without a trace.

Just like that, the black vortex devoured the Netherworld Iron bit by bit, while the gray-blue energy body continuously sawed off the Netherworld Iron with black lines before devouring it again. This process was slow and strange, and Yun was stunned by it.

Such a big piece of Netherworld Demon Iron, how long will it take to saw it off piece by piece? It's too easy to be destroyed now. It turns out that this guy's IQ is not very high. It should not be difficult to deal with him if we find a good way.

"That's a good idea." Winali said suddenly, with a hint of appreciation in her voice.

"Oh? A good idea? What's that?" Yun asked curiously. He didn't understand why Winali said that. After all, this only trapped the monster, and didn't really solve the problem.

"The Netherworld Demonic Iron itself has the property of absorbing energy, and the middle part of that strange body is actually a portal, and the operation of the portal naturally requires energy. In this way, we only need to find a way to exhaust its energy, and then we can solve the problem, right?" Winali explained in detail.

After hearing this, Yun couldn't help but stare again at the gray-blue energy body created by Zoval. He secretly sighed inwardly, thinking that in such a short time, the other party had come up with so many countermeasures. In comparison, he was indeed a little inferior.

"You don't have to worry too much. After all, he is the Lord of the Abyss! He must be well aware of the various situations here. Although this strange body was not created by him, with his ability and knowledge, he can almost see through the clues in an instant. He probably already knows the attack methods and weaknesses of the strange body almost completely." Winali seemed to notice Yun's frustration and hurried to comfort him.

After Winali's reminder, Yun instantly understood. No matter how familiar he was with it, could it be as familiar as Zoval? If he had no way out, it would be wrong. Hadn't he thrown it out in the first place because he thought Zoval would definitely have a way here? Now that he was acting as he should, why was he lamenting here?

"Oh, not bad. Didn't you just swear that the attack was not that strong? How come a piece of your body is suddenly missing?" Yun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, and teased Zoval without any concealment.

Faced with Yun's ridicule, Zoval was obviously a little flustered. He hurriedly explained: "I...I didn't expect this result." There was a hint of helplessness in his voice.

Seeing this, Yun breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that Zorval would suddenly slip out of his control, especially now that Frostmourne was no longer in his possession. But after hearing Zorval's explanation, he felt that he could at least control Zorval to some extent.

"So what do you mean now?" Yun continued to ask, his eyes falling on the blue figurine made by Zoval. "Your blue figurine is quite interesting."

Zoval was a little embarrassed. He hurriedly explained, "I created this blue figure using dark energy. Actually, I shouldn't have used this form. It's just that my abilities now rely on the Sword of Sorrow, so I can only appear in this form temporarily. Furthermore, this form consumes a lot of energy."

Zovaal was a wicked old man, and Yun had no faith in him. After all, Yun couldn't revive his men in the Maw, so for now, he could only feign dexterity with Zovaal. However, Yun knew full well that once the time came to revive his men, Zovaal would undoubtedly act. And Yun himself, of course, wouldn't let Zovaal off the hook. If his men were successfully resurrected, he would make them pay.

"System, I really need to resurrect Sindyale and the others. Do you have any good ideas?" At this time, the only thing Yun could rely on was the system.

The system immediately replied, "To resurrect them, we must first find their location on the author's platform, and then determine whether resurrection is possible based on the strength of their souls."

After hearing this, Yun felt a little more confident and then asked, "So, is this writer's platform here?"

The system answered affirmatively: "Yes."

Yun couldn't help but say with some worry, "I'm afraid I'll encounter a lot of things like the strange bodies along the way."

"I'm not sure about that. I don't have any information about the current Tower of Sinful Souls." The system's voice sounded in Yun's mind, without any emotion.

Yun sighed helplessly and thought to himself, "Well, then I can only continue to waste time with Zoval."

However, just as Yun was about to accept this reality, the system suddenly said, "You can actually go outside to get to the writer's platform."

Yun was stunned when he heard this, and quickly asked, "Go outside? What do you mean?"

The system explained, "The Tower of the Damned Souls was originally designed to suppress all souls here. It connects the entire Maw through various Soul-Suppressing Chains, and finally directs energy to Olympus through the Psychic Chains above. Therefore, even if you reach the top of the Tower of the Damned Souls, you will eventually have to pass through the Psychic Chains to reach Olympus."

Yun nodded thoughtfully, seeming to understand a little, but still a little confused: "Oh, so that's it, but even if that's the case, how can I get out?"

The system continued, "You can use the Soul-Suppressing Chain to get outside. Each floor of the Tower of Sinful Souls is connected to a Soul-Suppressing Chain outside. Those here are all spirits, and they dare not touch the Soul-Suppressing Chains because they will directly absorb their spiritual energy. But you are different, you are a living being, and you will not be affected."

After hearing this, Yun was completely stunned. He had never imagined such a method existed. Although he felt a little resentful towards the system, wondering why it hadn't told him earlier, he thought about it more carefully and realized that he hadn't asked the question before, which made him feel a little helpless. After all, how could a system possibly be so comprehensive?

Fortunately, there was finally a solution to the problem, which made Yun feel a little relieved. He thought that this way, he would no longer have to rely too much on Zoval.

Then, Yun asked the system a new question: "Can you mark a passage outside that can reach the writer's platform?"

The system's answer was very straightforward: "Yes."

After receiving a positive answer, Yun was not satisfied. He continued to ask: "Can other rooms be reached in this way?"

The system once again gave a positive answer: "It is reachable, but the rooms I can mark are determined by the various bosses that appear in the game. As for the specific conditions in these rooms, I cannot explore them now."

Hearing this, Yuntian was speechless. Sure enough, the system remained as stable as before, and the language remained as precise, even somewhat rigid. Yuntian knew full well that the room had undergone significant changes, and it was highly likely that even the writer's platform had experienced problems. However, for Sindyalai and the others, Yuntian felt he had to give it a try, no matter what.

With the powerful confidence granted by the system, Yun became even more unscrupulous. He bluntly said to Zoval, "Zoval, you're a mighty Eternal, so why are you struggling so hard against such a small fry? Are you deliberately holding back your strength to use against me?"

Facing Yun's questioning, Zoval appeared quite calm. He quickly explained, "That's not the case, Yun. Our relationship is more of cooperation than opposition. My strength has been greatly reduced, and even if I return to the Abyss, I'll be in dire need of a powerful helper. And you happen to be my ideal choice. After all, you're not from the Abyss, not even a spirit, so you naturally can't stay there for long, and the threat you pose to me is naturally minimal. Moreover, all you seek is to retrieve a few souls from the billions of souls in the Abyss. This goal doesn't conflict with mine, so we're simply a perfect match."

However, Yun wasn't someone easily persuaded. He sneered inwardly. If he hadn't been prepared, he might have been fooled by Zoval's sweet talk. However, it was hard to say who would have the last laugh. After all, this was a contest to see who could outwit the other.

So, Yun decided to continue putting pressure on Zoval. He sighed and said, "But, Zoval, I've been doing my best to help you, but I really don't have any confidence in your ability to revive my friends."

Winali looked at Yun strangely, not understanding why Yun suddenly became aggressive. Although Zoval had concealed a lot from Yun on this matter, shouldn't they cooperate first at this time?
