Time pass. On this day, Lin Ming had already been in the Dark Abyss for two months already.
Dark Abyss 12th Layer, Black Sand City –
It is a giant city located in the middle of the desert. The reason this city had such a name was because the desert was formed from black sand.
The desert is naturally desolate, but the city itself is full of business. The reason for this was that the Devil Association had set up their 12th layer branch division here.
Thus, the city had turned into the largest slave market in the 12th layer.
The slave trade was a very important business in the Dark Abyss. The slaves here were not only slaves of the ancient race, but also the abyss.
Low intelligence gaps, such as cyclops, often turn into slaves in the Dark Abyss. All of these slaves were sold in the same way.
The Devil Association only sold high-quality slaves. Slaves with poor talent and low strength had no value at all. This kind of slave was placed in the open wilderness and hunted as prey.
For example, when it came to ancient race slaves, the Demon Association often raised and cultivated them so that they reached the heavenly Transformation realm upwards. Not only that, but many of them had certain special bloodlines.
For the bottomless pit, the bloodline of this ancient race was extremely beneficial.
These purchased slaves could be used as living furnaces or even food. There are several species of abyssal demons that only come in the male gender. This chasm will forcibly inject the fluids of their reproductive life into women of other races. Then, this liquid would attack the eggs of these foreign women and slowly change their bloodline. Slowly, these eggs will suck up the essence of women's lives until a new abyssal is born.
This is a very cruel and cruel method of reproduction. For this reason, female slaves had always been sold for several times the price of male slaves in Black Sand City.
The Black Sand City did not have a city wall. Instead, it was covered by a huge force field.
At this moment, over a thousand miles away from Black Sand City, Lin Ming was standing on a high mountain peak and looking down at the city. From this distance, the gigantic Black Sand City was only the size of his palm.
This city was the first all-out battle target Lin Ming had decided upon after entering the Dark Abyss.
For the past two months in the Dark Abyss, Lin Ming had not taken any prominent drastic action. He was only constantly gathering information to advance his understanding of the Dark Abyss. He wanted to understand the level of the powerhouse, the large scale of influence, their position, the base, and all sorts of other important information.
Other than the Demon Association that Lin Ming had made his goal for, he also had a relatively good understanding of the influence of the other totem levels. And, he also knew that the most mysterious Demon God Tomb was at the very bottom layer of Dark Abyss – 18th layer.
As for the secrets related to the Demon God Tomb, Lin Ming had not been able to know many things.
In these past two months Lin Ming had secretly hunted over a hundred ravines. From starting with the Holy Lord level abyss, then the World King level abyss, he then started the Great World King level abyss.
After killing this bottomless abyss, Lin Ming would swallow their strength. As the days passed, he became increasingly proficient in the Laws of Swallowing and the energy wheels formed from the power of divinity and demons within his body continued to develop.
Right now, the power of gods and demons had turned into the basic energy of Lin Ming's cultivation method. If he were to strengthen his divinity and demonic powers, it would help him make a breakthrough in his cultivation.
Originally, Lin Ming should have reached the peak of the middle Empyrean realm in 5000 years. But now he was taking great strides to destroy the upper Empyrean royal wall. If he wanted to truly cross this bridge, he would still need an enormous amount of energy.
And using the Law of Swallowing to absorb the power of the abyss was undoubtedly the best shortcut.
Lin Ming recalled the information he had collected secretly about the abyss of the Empyrean level in these past few days. This information seemed common and mediocre, but it helped Lin Ming avoid a crucial mistake. Otherwise, if he were to encounter the middle True Divinity abyssal then he would be in danger.
According to the information he had, there were a total of five Empyrean ravines in Black Sand City.
Even within the Dark Abyss, an Empyrean level abyssal could not be found everywhere. They were generally Elders who had great influence with leading status. They often lived in important locations of their great influence and were surrounded by solemn guards and layers of traps.
If an Empyrean level abyssal was killed, it would naturally cause an uproar in the surrounding region.
Lin Ming did not wish to expose himself prematurely He planned to secretly cut out an Empyrean level abyssal, and this Black Sand City that was far from the Demonic Snake City was the best choice. If he were to be recklessly slaughtered in Black Sand City then there was no way he would be worried about the bashe snake. The snake bashe was the ruler of Demon Snake City and most would not care about matters related to the Demon Association.
The city lord of Black Sand City was an Elder of the Demon Association. If his strength was judged by human standards then he would be somewhere between an Empyrean and a True God. This also made him the strongest powerhouse in Black Sand City.
Moreover, there was also an Empyrean peak and two middle Empyrean ravines in Black Sand City. Lin Ming was extremely looking forward to killing this abyss and swallowing their strength to see how much they could benefit him.
Lin Ming waited for nightfall. A night with a howling black wind was the best time to kill others and destroy their corpses.
"mm?"
Lin Ming muttered to himself. He expanded his common sense in a straight line, checking it out. With his current common sense, he could easily investigate something that happened thousands of miles away.
What he saw surprised him. This was clearly an ancient race martial artist who was fighting against a group of abyssal demons.
And these ancient race martial artists all had yellow box scarves tied to their arms. The scarves were embroidered with hexagonal ice flower patterns.
These ancient race martial artists lacked poor cultivation methods and combat skills. Moreover, they worked together to utilize the battle formation. It was clear from the view that this was an ancient race clan with a high level of intelligence and not a 'prey' that was bred to be released into the wild.
"Rebel Army !?"
Lin Ming was surprised. The yellow square scarf on their hands reminded him of the recent slave rebellion that enveloped the 11th layer of the 11th Dark 14th Abyss.
This is a rebellion on a large scale. Although the serpent bashe turned a blind eye to them and the Devil Association continued with their business as usual, the reality was that in these past years a rebellion had killed many ravines and saved a large number of slaves.
These slaves joined the rebel army and the cycle continued.
Because rebel soldiers always tied yellow scarves on their arms, the ravine called them yellow scarf bandits.
The truth was that even in Lin Ming's eyes, this ancient race rebel army would not be able to cause such a huge wave. Sooner or later they would be annihilated by the abyss; the difference in strength was simply too great.
However, when Lin Ming witnessed the different battle methods and styles used by the rebel soldiers, and when he saw their battle formations, he suddenly had a strange feeling in his mind.
Although he was not very optimistic about this rebellion, he could not help but admit that these rebel forces were not as weak as he thought. At the very least; they would not collapse at a single strike. Perhaps they had dug up some ancient ruins, otherwise they should not have had a cultivation method of this level.
As Lin Ming was thinking this, he saw several lights rise up from the Black Sand City and quickly fly to the location where the battle had broken out.
It was clear that this was reinforcements from the Black Sand City. The battlefield was so close to Black Sand City that it would be strange if there was no reaction instead. Once reinforcements join the battle, then under normal circumstances the rebel army troops will be eliminated in just half an incense stick.
Lin Ming would naturally not see these people in danger and stood still. His figure flickered and he quickly flew towards the battlefield.
…… .
A thousand miles away, the ancient race rebel army had fallen into a fierce battle. They were originally an incredible army of rebel forces, and when they carried out a secret mission they were discovered by the forces of the Demon Association.
The battle is inevitable. Rebel forces had occupied the advantage from the start, but the more enemy reinforcements came, the weaker they were.
"Gee!"
A girl dressed in the green of the ancient race shouted in pain. He was beaten back. The sword in his hand was thrown, making several rounds in the air before stabbing the stone.
Releasing one's weapon in this environment is extremely dangerous. Moreover, with the severe injuries she had sustained back then, the green-clothed girl had lost almost all of her combat power.
"Thousand Shades!"
The eyes of several other youths reddened in anger and worry. However, they did not even have time to take care of themselves, let alone save others.
The green-clothed girl shouted in pain once again. His skin paled and he shivered. His sword-wielding arm suddenly began to age at a speed visible to the eyes. It withered as the blood vitality quickly drained from it.
This feeling was like the decay of a mortal body over a thousand years old being compressed into a few breaths; it was terrifying and terrifying!
"Cut it!"
A middle-aged man shouted, burning with worry. This young girl named Thousand Shade was one of the extremely talented individuals in the rebel army. He had great future potential and his bloodline was also incredible. If something happens to him, it will be a huge loss for the rebel forces.
The green-clothed girl gritted her teeth. He grabbed another sword and cut down. The arm wrapped in a scarf fell off. Even though she looked young and gentle, the truth was that she was a firm and resolute person. Her fresh blood had already dyed her scarf with a red hexagonal flower pattern!
Damage ceased. This scene even shocked the surrounding demon abyssal. Not to mention a woman, even if a brave warrior were to cut off their arms, they would furrow their brows. But, this girl called Thousand Shade did not even hesitate and did it cleanly and neatly.
"Hehe, you're cruel, but too bad for you that still won't change your ending. You're all done! You might as well become a good little slave and let us capture you and plant the slave seal inside you. Maybe some of you might be able to sell for a high price, hahaha! ”
Abyssal chuckles. And at this moment, the sound of a sonic boom pierced through the air behind him. This was the sound of a flying powerhouse, the sound of the reinforcement troops from Black Sand City!
Abyssal was sneering, “A reinforcements have arrived. You're dead now! "
