grew stronger the further they advanced through the chasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each step felt heavier than the last, with the Depravita Aura thickening like an oppressive fog around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After five arduous minutes, they finally pierced through the chasm and reached the next level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What lay before them could only be described as a massive, all-encompassing garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Towering black trees stretched to no end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thorny vines snaked across the ground, crisscrossing their path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flowers bloomed in deep reds and blacks, their petals velvety yet ominous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trees dripped with thick, crimson sap that smelled unmistakably of iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of the trees seemed almost sentient, shifting slightly as the dragons, saintesses, and angels appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three groups immediately raised their guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The memory of the blood vines from the first floor, which had taken the lives of two angels, was still fresh in their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before they could fully assess their surroundings, frowns appeared on their faces as the pressure of the Depravita Aura increased exponentially upon setting foot on the third level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Annoyed expressions surfaced among the dragons and saintesses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of the corrupting aura was pushing their abilities to their limits, but they managed to maintain focus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the same could not be said for the angels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some began to move erratically, confusion and dismay clouding their faces as they struggled to concentrate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that the weakness of the angels extended beyond battle prowess and survival skills; their methods for handling the corrupting essence were also less effective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While most of the angels showed difficulty, Helios seemed impervious to the aura, his eyes glowing with silver flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It doesn’t seem like they’ll be able to carry on,” Meylin said softly, her sharp eyes focused on the trembling angels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, Helios’s voice cut through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There is no need to worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We will all march forward.” His tone was flat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Archangel did not even bother to glance at his struggling comrades, his eyes fixed ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The saintesses and dragons exchanged glances, surprised by Helios’s blatant disregard for his own people and the angels’ simple nodding to his words without protest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, they all accepted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The saintesses had no special feelings for the angels and chose not to meddle in their affairs, while the dragons would gladly see them all perish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the angels had a leader who forced them into suicidal paths, the dragons would merely smile at their misfortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cautiously, the dragons, saintesses, and angels moved forward, their eyes scanning in all directions, wary of the dangers the garden might present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flying above was not an option; the ceiling was covered in vines with razor-sharp thorns stretching endlessly, creating an impenetrable barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn’t take long for enemies to emerge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood vines slithered from the surroundings, similar to the ones from the first floor, attacking from all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vines lashed out like serpents, their tips barbed and dripping with crimson sap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, these were weaker than the one on the first floor, and though difficult, the angels, dragons, and saintesses fought back effectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Defensive formations!” Cain commanded, his scarlet scales shimmering as he unleashed a surge of powerful flames and lightning that set the vines ablaze, incinerating them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The saintesses moved with practiced precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amara swung her moonlit blade, arcs of silver light slicing through the vines with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meylin stood at the center, her eyes glowing as she channeled moonforce to create protective barriers around her companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dragons unleashed their elemental breaths-fire, ice, lightning-burning and freezing the vines before they could strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Towering above the others, Cain released a torrent of scarlet flames that consumed wide swaths of vines, reducing them to ash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The angels, though struggling, fought with determination, their eyes filled with desperate intensity as they followed Helios into the fray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They unleashed bursts of fire and heat that scorched the encroaching vines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was evident they were expending a significant portion of their energy to keep the corruption at bay, weakening their offensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Helios remained aloof, a faint smirk on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a mere gesture, he emitted a wave of silver flames that disintegrated any vines daring to approach him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they pressed deeper into the Abyssal Garden, the enemies grew more diverse and bizarre.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They encountered twisted creatures that appeared to be a grotesque fusion of plants and beasts-flora infused with malevolent life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thorned creatures with bark-like armor charged at them, their eyes glowing with malice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zalgrim took to the skies just above the treetops, unleashing lightning bolts that struck down the plant-beasts below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They just keep coming!” he roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keep pushing forward!” Cain’s voice boomed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We can’t afford to be stalled here.” They navigated through fields of grasping roots that tried to ensnare their feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The saintesses used their moonforce to sense the safest paths, guiding the group around the worst of the traps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At one point, the ground beneath them began to tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the earth erupted a massive worm-like creature made entirely of intertwined vines and thorns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its maw gaped wide, lined with rows of needle-like teeth dripping with corrosive sap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eldrick and Cain moved in tandem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eldrick launched a barrage of obsidian spikes, piercing the creature’s hide, while Cain delivered the decisive blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yin-Yang Lightning Fire Gluttonous Berserker Dragon Breath!” Cain roared, unleashing a devastating beam of energy that tore through the worm, obliterating it in a blinding explosion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the continuous onslaught, the group pressed on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corrupting aura grew denser, but they persevered, each member pushing their limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The angels began to lag behind, their movements sluggish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One stumbled, nearly ensnared by a creeping vine, before a fellow angel intervened, slicing it apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Helios glanced back, his expression hardening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do not falter now,” he commanded coldly, offering no assistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After what felt like hours of relentless combat, the oppressive forest began to thin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The twisted trees gave way to a clearing bathed in an otherworldly glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center lay a calm and serene lake, its surface like glass reflecting the distorted ceiling above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Redsunworld Schedule: 4\u002F14 (+7 due from last week) Previous week: 521 power stones Power stone ranking: +600: 7 plus chapters a week +800: 10 plus
