Chapter 175 (1/2)

The Kings of Abyss gathered together once again, surrounding the huge corpse as they discussed amongst themselves.
The King of the first floor in the Abyss, who was also known as “Guardian of Dungeon,” was dead. The corpse lay before everyone.
Some Kings tried to take a bite of it, but in the end, it was only a waste of time. It was extremely tough. Whether they tried to tear or chew, grind or cut, burn or corrode… all efforts were in vain.
After a while, even the greediest King lost interest.
“Why did he die?” the Goddess of Fresh Blood asked. “This is a very important question.”
“Don’t know. He only said that he was doing an experiment and that there would be a result very soon. Then, he said that there was indeed an outcome within expectations… Then he died.” The huge eyeball described everything that it saw.
“Was it due to old age?”
“Did he die of exhaustion?”
“Did someone attack?”
Questions were suggested one after the other. Of course those questions such as “did he die of starvation” were totally ignored.
After discussion, everyone’s consensus was that he was killed. The one who killed the King must have done it silently and been old and experienced. Even though the King next to the corpse didn’t realize it, everyone knew it was him.
Countless pairs of eyes were looking high.
In an indescribably high place, far away on the top of the positive realm in the Ring of World, there was the Wheel of Order which never changed. There was the existence of the unbelievable great, who stayed there since the birth of the Thousand Worlds.
If there were anyone who could have killed him, it would most probably be Him.
The monarchs of devils were silent. Even the most ferocious and competitive ones were at a loss for words.
They weren’t those low-level devils that couldn’t control their emotions at all. Even though they were embodiments of chaos, they had the strength to restrain themselves. They could show a certain level of order and display clearer thoughts.
But that’s why they were getting more upset.
After a while, a huge eyeball whizzed past and dashed towards the bottom of the Abyss, towards the deepest ends of the negative realm in the Ring of World.
The huge earthworm who was also considered Skeleton King’s old acquaintance hesitated. In the end, it followed behind.
“Will they return?” the huge canine who tried to take a chunk from the corpse of Skeleton King but broke its teeth asked.
“They will when they’re confident or brave enough to challenge the Wheel of Order.” In the body of the Mountain of Flesh and Blood, there was a squelching noise, but the body was just a projection, and its shadow was growing faint. “I will take a trip too, but I can’t be as extreme as them. It’d be bad if I couldn’t return.”
“I’ll go too then!”
“Same… Go…”
“Alright! Let’s go!”
Various monarchs moved one after another as huge shadows departing to the deepest corner in the root of the chaotic realm. Even those who didn’t intend to go left gradually.
It was over; there wouldn’t be any benefit, even if they stayed back.
After a while, the only monarch left on the huge world, who was newly put together and still slowly blending in, was the Goddess of Fresh Blood.
The only monarch that looked no different than a human looked up to the sky. The monarch didn’t see the Wheel of Order in the positive realm in the Ring of World. Instead, there was the huge jellyfish dragging a smaller world, bypassing the huge world carefully.
“You b*stard… Where are you from exactly?”
She looked at the world that was slowly moving and looked back where various monarchs’ shadows were growing faint. Then, she let out a heavy sigh.
Sui Xiong was sighing then too.
After a thought, he didn’t opt for a forced breakthrough in the end, but a bypass.
Even though the huge world before him suddenly cracked open, revealing a gap that was sufficient for him and his world to pass through, he didn’t take the chance. That gap was really suspicious. It was like a preplanned trap. It only lacked a handful of paddy. Although Sui Xiong didn’t think he was smart, he wasn’t a stupid bird. It was such a suspicious place that only a stupid bird would go through there.
He dragged the world that grew larger due to the broken pieces from many other worlds, and slowly bypassed the bigger world.
Looking at the huge world, it was impossible to he say he wasn’t green with envy. If he could drag that world along and transform it successfully, then not only his own believers but also all the people in the entire main dimension could move in. He’d give them sufficient living space and resource supplies. And even after that, there would be space left!
But he also knew that it was impossible.
He already felt so strained dragging a small world. He felt as though he was an ant that was carrying a rice grain, trudging back to the nest. If he were to carry that other world… There was an idiom: a Camponotus Lignipardus trying to shake a big tree. Attempting to do what is far beyond one’s power.
Sui Xiong didn’t know what a Camponotus Lignipardus was, but he guessed that it must be an insect. But the difference between the insect and the big tree would be way smaller compared to him and the huge world!
“Such insatiable greed! I already have a surprise harvest, and I think about getting more benefits…” he mocked himself. “I am too much a layman!”
After laughing at himself, he continued to clench his teeth and drag the world that belonged to him. He slowly moved towards the top of the Abyss.
