Chapter 194

Moreover, under the arrangements of the fox woman Sister Qing Ling, a large number of original Lion Tribe people also joined the road-building army, building from the direction of the Lion Tribe's Wang Cheng toward the Miracle City.

At the current pace, it would take at most a little over a month to connect the two roads.

A few days later, the Winged People sent envoys to the Miracle City.

The Winged People's envoy was a winged girl.

This winged girl looked not much different from a human; the only difference was the extra pair of wings.

The reason she looked this way was that her late mother was said to be a human from a human kingdom in the west.

She was the Winged Tribe chief's daughter, named Mia!

If it were other Winged People, their bodies would more or less differ from humans.

Mia essentially possessed the genes of both humans and Winged People.

"My father has already received the Holy Maiden's letter, and we have also heard of the deeds of the Lord of Flames. May I first go to your temple to study for a while? I hope to learn more about the Lord of Flames."

Mia requested of the fox woman Sister Qing Ling.

The fox woman Sister Qing Ling agreed.

Thus, the Miracle City gained a new resident, the winged girl Mia.

And the great construction of the Miracle City was still ongoing.

On the Miracle Wasteland, large tracts of land were being reclaimed.

New cities were also being built.

In the Misty Mountains, large tracts of land were likewise being reclaimed.

At the same time, the forests originally inhabited by those Beastmen tribes were no longer allowed to be trampled by these Beastmen.

Hmm, the word "trampled" fits perfectly.

The Beastmen tribes were generally short on food.

In almost every tribe's forest, whether wild animals or anything edible in the forest, they had been nearly scraped clean by them.

Yet in these forests, there were actually many rare species, medicinal herbs, and the like.

How would these Beastmen know the value of such things?

Many medicinal herbs were destroyed beneath their hooves.

Now that these Beastmen could eat potatoes and sweet potatoes every day, along with freshly baked corn, and live in clean and tidy houses, enjoying a good life they had never even dreamed of before, none of them were willing to return to the forest.

While the great construction of the Miracle City was in full swing, in the underground city beside the black hole, Lin Yan was still waiting patiently.

Lin Yan had gained quite a few evolution points from the battle at the Lion Tribe's Wang Cheng, and after spending these evolution points, Lin Yan had already leveled up to Level Seven Undying Heavenly Fire.

Lin Yan's current Undying Fire could maintain zero consumption within a temperature range of three thousand degrees.

On the Gods Continent, apart from a few powerful warriors above the Sixth Rank, or some warriors equipped with excellent protection against fire and temperature, almost no one could withstand it.

Of course, the range of the flames also had its limits; if Lin Yan burned over too large an area, it still required energy points.

Now, the evolution points needed to level up had become much more; going from Level Seven Undying Heavenly Fire to Level Eight Undying Heavenly Fire required a full eighty thousand evolution points.

As for energy points, Lin Yan's energy points had long since broken past ten billion.

Lin Yan was not short on energy points for the time being.

Ten billion energy points—unless Lin Yan drove a raging burn and turned the entire sky of the Beastmen Kingdom into flames, they wouldn't be used up so easily!

Of course, more energy points are always better.

As Lin Yan's strength grew, he would encounter more powerful enemies; for him, combat required energy points!

Recently, in the underground city beside the black hole, the creatures brought along had grown more and more numerous.

These creatures were mainly the dark creatures of the underground.

It seemed these creatures all wanted to take advantage of the gaps in the Abyss Passage to enter the Abyss.

Although the Abyss was Full of Dangers.

For dark creatures, opportunities were also plentiful.

Some dark creatures had even originally planned to settle permanently in the Abyss, to live within it!

The strength of these dark creatures varied—some strong, some weak.

In the Abyss, being strong did not guarantee survival.

The Abyss was not entirely filled with fearsome Abyss creatures either.

Of course, there were many fearsome ones; whether one could survive, sometimes luck mattered more than strength!

"Princess, the Abyss Passage is about to open!"

In the underground city, Princess Chenxi and Qingluan, both wearing veils, went to the edge of the black hole every day to take a look.

"The Abyss Passage loosens once every five years, and reveals a crack once every twenty years. The loosening every five years is manageable, but every time a crack appears, the Gods Continent descends into chaos for a while."

Princess Chenxi said, lost in thought about something.

Qingluan sighed and said, "Yes, there are always people who want to take shortcuts, but the Abyss Demon Gods are not easy to deal with—our clan is the best example."

Above the two of them, a torch burned quietly.

On the torch, Lin Yan naturally overheard their words.

At this moment, Lin Yan's heart stirred.

Because once again in the black hole, he sensed energy being transmitted from within the Abyss.

After he had transformed his Tenth Layer flame into Abyss Demonic Flame, Lin Yan had become quite sensitive to the energy within the Abyss.

However, the power transmitted this time did not seem to belong to the previous Demon God.

"Great God of Shadows, I offer my soul to you, only asking that you grant me the power of revenge."

In a certain dark room, a voice rose softly.

"Good!"

After a long while, a cold, sinister voice drifted over.

The next day, a particularly gruesome homicide occurred nearby—an entire great clan wiped out in a single night.

And the killer was only one person.

After slaughtering every last member of his enemy clan, this person also dropped dead on the spot, yet his body bore not the slightest wound, which indicated his soul had been taken.

Those who choose to sacrifice their own souls for the sake of revenge, in exchange for power, are few.

Such people generally sacrifice themselves as well.

But on the Gods' Continent, there are still large numbers of people—and even factions—who, during this period, use every means to sacrifice to the Abyss Demon Gods in order to obtain extra power.

And after their power surges, the Dalujiu Society will erupt into massive disputes.

This is the chaos that comes once every twenty years.

In the past, this kind of chaos once escalated into a great upheaval that swept across several kingdoms.

Having learned their lesson, every time the Abyss Rift appears, the great kingdoms brace themselves, and naturally no great upheaval occurs.

But there will still be some small disturbances.

The number of people quietly making sacrifices is very large.

It can be said that every twenty years, when the Abyss Rift appears, it is a time when demons run rampant across the Gods' Continent!

From the edge of the black hole, the Demon Gods' power began streaming continuously toward the Gods' Continent.

The way the Demon Gods transmit power is not linear, like the transmission of energy.

They transmit power by consuming divine force, so naturally it is not like the transmission of electricity, which needs wires and then travels slowly along them.

This kind of power transmission basically involves the rules of space and can descend directly.

But because the rift has not fully opened, the Demon Gods' power must linger for a while here at the Demon Abyss—it has to pass through the loosened passage first, and only after exiting the Demon Abyss will it descend directly onto the sacrificer.

These energies vary in size.

But from this day onward, within the passages of the entire Demon Abyss, the Demon Gods' power frequently headed toward the Gods' Continent.

After passing through the Demon Abyss, this power vanished directly, descending upon the sacrificers.

The other people in the underground city could not sense the Demon Abyss at all—nor the changes within the black hole beside the underground city.

Only Lin Yan, thanks to the strangeness of the Abyss Demon Flame, could sense these surges of power.

"The crack in the Abyss Passage is about to appear!"

Lin Yan made his judgment in an instant!

"So many surges of power!"

Lin Yan thought for a moment, and decided to cut in and snatch a share!
