the Undead King's voice echoed in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alphox, however, was nowhere to be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex wasn't sure why, but he had a feeling the primordial dragon was hiding, maybe because something, or someone, was watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or maybe something had happened inside the [Shadow Pet Space] that he didn't know of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, Alex pressed forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The path stretched on for what felt like forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no visible end, just the same dark, empty corridor stretching ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked for minutes, then an hour, then two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This isn't normal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stay updated via My Virtual Library Empire\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had reached the bottom layer, yet the path kept looping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn't matter how far he walked; it all felt the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The Bottom of the Abyss is in the seventh layer, but that does not mean there is no challenge tied to it.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Figures.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex exhaled through his nose, already expecting something like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He should've known it wouldn't be that easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Abyss, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The God of the Abyss would never fight fairly as long as he was able to eliminate all the competition before it even reached him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to be honest, who wouldn't do that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You could create an impossibly-difficult challenge to get past, and gather the souls\u002Fpower of all of those who fail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even those who do survive will still be forced to fight you and your Chosen One.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why fighting in a God's domain was a bad idea...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And above all, there were a few more reasons, much more dangerous than the \"challenges\".\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex didn't know if he was ready to face them, but it didn't matter, it wasn't like he could back down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hallway felt endless, and if it was a loop…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to test it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lifting his staff, he summoned [Demonic Spear] since it was one of his only skills that went in a straight line and was fast enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment it formed at the tip of his staff, he launched it forward with incredible speed, watching as it vanished into the abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five seconds passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Behind you.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex's instincts screamed, warning him of something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn't a monster or another being's attack, not at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, Alex simply ducked just in time to avoid his own spear as it came rushing toward his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'So it really is a loop.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear continued circling, coming at him over and over, forcing him to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, he got tired of dodging and simply extended his arm, catching it mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment his fingers wrapped around it, the spear disintegrated since he was the one that created it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alone once more, Alex let out a slow breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to break this loop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He activated his [Cursed Eyes of Truth], and the moment he did, an instinctual command roared through his mind:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Destroy everything.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex's eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His [World Cleaver] was still active, but using it for something like this wasn't worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he took a deep breath, then cancelled [World Cleaver], regaining the 100 Destiny Points that had been reserved for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, without hesitation, he activated [Fated Cataclysm].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small golden sphere formed in Alex's palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting time, he sent it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It floated into the air, rising higher and higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deeper it went, the more it grew, rapidly expanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten times Alex's size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fifty times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hundred times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thirty seconds, it was over five hundred times larger than him, an orb of raw, destructive energy illuminating the abyss itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And of course, once thirty seconds passed, it also meant that Fated Cataclysm was about to unleash itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOOOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The explosion erupted with unimaginable force, consuming everything in a blinding golden light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive shockwave spread outward, obliterating the walls, the ceiling, and everything in its path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, the abyss was illuminated, if only for a moment, exposing the vast emptiness around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in that instant, the floor beneath Alex disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Bingo,' Alex thought, smirking as he plummeted downward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the bottom of the abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only way forward would be to go down, obviously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the descent lasted longer than he expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Just how low is he?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex fell, and fell, and fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind roared past his ears, but he simply closed his eyes, focusing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadows in his mind still watched him, dozens of white, pupil-less eyes locked onto his soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he ignored them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Warning! The pressure of the Abyss is becoming dangerous!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A system panel appeared before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was proof that he was reaching the very bottom of the abyss, perhaps the lowest point in the entire world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was almost surreal to think about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lowest place in existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex's grip tightened on his staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how suffocating this place was, it didn't matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, below him, something flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A distant light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'That's it.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after falling for so long, landing normally was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he hit the ground at this speed, even he wouldn't survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasting 10 Destiny Point just to revive was not an option either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FWOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex unfurled his dragon wings, spreading them wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flapped once, then twice, slowing his momentum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind resistance hit like a wall, but he powered through it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time he neared the bottom, he was gliding smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, at last, his feet touched the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You have reached the bottom of the abyss.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Alex landed, his gaze snapped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, standing alone in the void, was a sign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an old, weathered slab of stone with a single dark arrow pointing forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below it, a message was carved into the stone in ancient runes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[God of the Abyss]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex exhaled slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't waste time thinking about it. He simply started walking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no more tricks. No more illusions. No more distractions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a single path forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ahead, in the distance, a light shone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the eternal darkness of the abyss, this light was vast and overwhelming, a beacon in the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the last room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The place where those who reached the bottom would fight the God of the Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex tightened his grip on his [Staff of Pure Hatred], summoning his [Bleeding Dragon Claws] on his left hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The final battle was here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No more running.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No more delays.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just him… and the \"weakest\" god, in one of the strongest domains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small, confident smirk tugged at his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here goes, Abyss God.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with that, he stepped forward, into the light.\u003C\u002Fp>",1217,"2026-06-03T12:12:47.112Z","2026-06-03T12:12:55.154Z",1,"novelbin.me","388df93ec09c8c7314b62623d1028439ba2b94f145327f344878d3410791620e","awakening-reincarnating-with-the-sss-level-extra-chapter-297","awakening-reincarnating-with-the-sss-level-extra-chapter-295",516,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fawakening-reincarnating-with-the-sss-level-extra-cover.jpg"]
