Chapter 828: Your Brother

Two intersecting huge spatial rifts spanned the void ahead, like a "no entry" symbol.

"Wait a moment, it has a rhythm." The Dark Origin said.

It did indeed have a rhythm. Its cycle was twenty hours. Once the time was up, the center of the giant cross suddenly darkened and spread outward, quickly turning into a vortex.

"Hiss—Maw, your brother!" Negris said in shock.

Abyss Maw said irritably: "Don't call me Maw. That's not an Origin, just an abyss. It should be the mysteries of the abyss simulated by other powers."

"Got it, Maw. Can the mysteries of the abyss be simulated? Your mysteries aren't very good then." Negris could anger people just by opening his mouth.

However, these words hit Abyss Maw's sore spot. Ang easily mastering the mysteries of the abyss had already made it very uncomfortable. Now, something that didn't know what it was could actually simulate the mysteries of the abyss, yet one couldn't feel the aura of an Origin on it. Could it be that its mysteries of the abyss were becoming common?

Just then, Ang's expression shifted, and the Monarch also straightened his body, looking forward, saying: "It seems to be devouring dark elements."

Abyss Maw's face fell instantly. It could actually devour dark elements?

Abyss Maw could, of course, devour dark elements, but it couldn't "only" devour dark elements. Its power came more from the chaotic mist and various substances; it had no way to directly use dark elements.

Therefore, it would create clones like the Wings of Darkness, which could digest the dark elements it devoured that it couldn't use, although this efficiency was very low.

But now, the void was empty, and there was no chaotic mist. This abyss only devoured dark elements. Doesn't that mean it only needed dark elements to maintain balance?

This is a capability that the vast majority of Ancient Gods dream of.

Why did De Rosa sell himself to Ang? Wasn't it for a Godhead? With a Godhead, it would possess low-efficiency but ubiquitous power to use, unlike the chaotic mist, which only existed here in the Chaos Plane, and every time it went to dig a little, it had to worry about being killed by the Undead Overlord.

Even the Wandering God Alliance was an Ancient God alliance based on this need. Everyone wanted to obtain an ability that could fill their stomachs without chaotic mist.

This abyss before them was so huge, yet it could maintain balance just by devouring dark elements. It was simply the ultimate realm of its dreams. Unfortunately, this abyss wasn't it.

The abyss lasted for more than twenty hours and then disappeared, revealing a rolling mass of dark elements in the center. The dark elements were so dense that they became visible to the naked eye, and anyone could perceive their existence.

However, immediately, two intersecting rifts cracked open at the location of the dark element mass, and with a "slurp," it was sucked in.

Then, these two rifts expanded continuously, becoming that huge cross again.

Everyone watched silently until here. Negris then said: "What does it feel like? It feels like the mysteries of the three of you: the Hole Worm's spatial power, the Dark Origin's dark elements, and Maw's mysteries of the abyss. They cooperate with each other to reach a balance, and finally collect a large mass of dark elements?"

"Seems like it. Why is there such a composite mystery here? Who has the ability to integrate the origin mysteries of the three of you, just for a mass of dark elements?" The Monarch asked in surprise.

"What do you mean 'just for a mass of dark elements'? In this void, dark elements should be the only usable power, right?" Abyss Maw said unconvinced.

The Dark Origin also said: "If they have the ability to capture and store dark elements, then there's no need to rob my origin at all."

Anthony analyzed: "First, it's possible that the amount they collect is too small. Calculate it; it's about a 50-hour cycle, and they only collect this little. And maintaining balance must also require consumption, so they can't store too much, which is why they have to rob you. The second possibility is that they aren't in the same group as the Void Will."

"Impossible. If it's not the Void Will, that means there's another existence capable of combining the mysteries of the three of us? Absolutely impossible." Abyss Maw firmly denied it.

Having an abyss here that could devour dark elements was already a blow to it. If it were the Void Will, that would be fine; the Void Will was its former boss after all. But if another unknown existence had done it, then its mysteries of the abyss would really be common.

As soon as the words fell, a team of humanoid creatures flew out of the huge rift.

These humanoid creatures were surging with dark element fluctuations, armored in heavy armor. The style of the armor was very lightweight but completely sealed, not even revealing their eyes.

"Dark element fluctuations? Armor? What kind of look is this? Magic Swordsmen?"

Magic Swordsmen who practice both magic and martial arts often appear in knight novels, but Negris had never seen this profession in reality.

Some swordsmen might know a little magic, and some mages might know a little staff technique, but Negris had never seen anyone who could use both magic and battle aura and combine them in combat.

Even Ang, when casting magic, casts magic, and when in close combat, he transforms; he doesn't mix them together because they don't provide any bonuses to each other.

So Negris's remark was purely teasing; after all, mages wearing armor are rare.

After these Dark Element Armored Mages flew out of the rift, they quickly dispersed to various positions of the rift, gesturing with their hands, and imprints composed of dark elements were struck onto the edge of the rift.

Under their organization, the somewhat blurry edges of the giant cross rift became solid.

After some maintenance, these Dark Element Armored Mages gathered into a team again and flew back into the rift.

Anthony said: "They are maintaining this spatial rift, and they live inside the rift. This is somewhat unreasonable."

"What's unreasonable?" Negris asked.

"It's unreasonable to put the living area and the production area together. What if an accident happens during production and the living area is blown up? Dark element production involves both the mysteries of the abyss and spatial mysteries. What if it explodes and the rift is blown away? Unless it's a last resort."

However, a giant cross appearing in this void was already unreasonable enough; other unreasonableness could be ignored. The problem now is what to do. Should they take a detour? Or enter the rift of this giant cross?

"Let's go in and see what the situation is. Maybe the Void Will is hiding inside." Abyss Maw suggested. It certainly didn't believe that these Dark Element Armored Mages had nothing to do with the Void Will.

"Are you crazy? Breaking into a dimensional space too? What if the rift closes and traps us inside? That would be miserable." Negris opposed.

Abyss Maw scoffed: "What dimensional space can trap the Hole Worm? It is the origin of space."

That's true. With the Hole Worm by their side, there's basically no need to worry about any spatial traps; it can even gnaw through dimensional spaces.

Moreover, there are five Origin Ancient Gods here. Even if the Void Will is really inside, they dare to break in and beat it to death.

The Monarch reached out and rolled, and a mass of smoke covered everyone, then drifted silently toward the rift.

Perhaps because they felt that it was impossible for anyone to approach this void, the rift had almost no sentries. But even if there were, they probably wouldn't see a mass of smoke in the pitch-black void.

Sinking into the rift, everyone arrived in a huge dimensional space. In the center of the space, a light ball radiated scorching light, illuminating the entire dimensional space.

Behind the light ball, a huge artificial object floated there, like a giant artificial object of a Starburst Array. The light ball was on the central axis, as if this artificial object had lit up this light ball.

Directly below the light ball, in a large open area, stood a lonely Mage Tower.

Seeing this Mage Tower, Negris and the others were stunned: "Tuhilix, you have a brother here." ===== CHAPTER 829 =====
