“Where? What benefits? Speak clearly.” Zhou Chen was not surprised by Heim's words. As he had expected, something had happened to the God behind him.

Heim first looked outside and confirmed that there was no one nearby before answering. “Go to the Abyss and obtain an Authority.”

“Huh?” Zhou Chen was immediately interested after hearing Heim's reply.

'Tve never been to the Abyss before. There should be many monsters there. I've never come into contact with Authorities either. This is interesting.

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and agreed to Heim's request. “Alright, I'll send this message to the Lord. Tell me what to do.”

Hearing Zhou Chen say this, a happy expression immediately appeared on Heim's face. He began to tell Zhou Chen the details.

This included the locations of the Abyss that Zhou Chen had to go to and the troubles that Lady Misery encountered.

After the exchange, Zhou Chen learned more about the situation.

'Lady Misery is trapped in the Abyss and needs help? I have some time to take a look.”

Zhou Chen had gathered some information about the abyss. He knew that it was where the demons lived. The environment was bad, and there were many monsters.

Zhou Chen was confident in his strength. Moreover, he had not exercised for a month, so he was already itching to fight.

“Alright, I'l go and pray to the Lord.” After the exchange, Zhou Chen quickly bid farewell to Heim and returned to his residence.

Then, he summoned Little Red and asked if it had found a suitable target to devour.

Little Red replied that it had found two, but they were weak and it had dealt with them, After devouring them, its strength had advanced further.

Zhou Chen opened the interface and found that it was still marked as low silver.

“We have to go for a big one.”

Zhou Chen had the intention to go to the Abyss, but he did not forget that Little Red's matter was more important and prepared to help her first.

“Let's go to the Mercenary Union to investigate and issue a reward.”

It would definitely be like searching for a needle in a haystack if he randomly searched for it. It was more reliable to obtain information from the natives.

After a while, Zhou Chen learned from the nearby Mercenary Union that the evil spirits in this world were not rare, but they basically appeared in the wilderness ruins. Most of them were not strong, and there were very few silver-ranked ones. Once they were discovered, they would be hunted by experts.
“There are not many high quality evil spirits in this world. Little Red, the chances of you devouring them and leveling up are slim.”

After chatting with Little Red in the ring, Zhou Chen decided to go to the Abyss because it was said that there were powerful evil spirits and demons in the Abyss. Instead of wasting time in the main world, it was better to go there and check on Lady Misery.
After making some preparations, Zhou Chen and Little Red headed to a very famous place in this world: Forgotten Valley.

The Forgotten Valley was located in a remote area of the main world. It was very far from the core civilization area. Moreover, the environment was very bad, and there were many poisonous gasses and insects.

(If you have problems with this website, please continue reading your novel on our new website myboxnovel.com THANKS!)

The reason why Zhou Chen had to go to this place was because there was an abyss fissure there. This fissure was said to have existed for a long time. It could allow the experts of the main world to enter the Abyss. It was difficult for the monsters of the Abyss to come out because they would encounter
huge resistance from the main world.

The distance was nothing to Zhou Chen. He sat on the hovering motorcycle and increased the speed to Mach 10. It did not take long for him to reach the Forgotten Valley.
As for the poisonous gas and poisonous insects that filled the Forgotten Valley, Zhou Chen did not care. Not to mention that his physique was immune to these, the ion shield around the hovering motorcycle isolated these things.

After approaching a dark red crack at the bottom of the valley, Zhou Chen drove in without stopping.

Then, he felt the environment in front of him change from the dark valley to a barren blood-colored land. Not only was the ground red, but the sky was also a deep red, as if it was soaked in blood.

“This is the Abyss? It does feel uninhabitable.”

Zhou Chen sat on the hovering motorcycle and observed the blood-colored world. He looked at the large expanse of bare red stones below and realized that this place was not suitable for human survival.

In the next moment, he realized that a large group of shadows had appeared in the distance and were approaching him.

“The demons are here? Let me move my muscles.”

Zhou Chen did not panic at all when he realized that an enemy was approaching. Instead, he was very excited. He put the hovering motorcycle in his inventory and activated his Gravity Control and Windrun skills to constantly speed up.

When he was about ten kilometers away from the enemy, Zhou Chen directly circulated the Eight Desolates True Energy in his body and instantly converted it to the lightning attribute. His speed instantly rose to a terrifying level, and he charged into the group of demons in an instant, directly crushing
all the demons that looked like ugly bats and instakilling them.

“So weak, and there was no passive skill.”

After instakilling a portion of the demons, Zhou Chen continued to move like lightning, sweeping through the clouds and killing the remaining flying demons. He punched out, and the ferocious Eight Desolates True Energy kept changing between the powerful attributes of metal, ice, lightning, and so on,
shattering the demons into pieces.

“I's boring to kill small fries.”
Zhou Chen did not feel any joy after killing these monsters in a few breaths. He only took it as testing the power of his cultivation technique.

He then took out the hovering motorcycle and headed in the direction Heim had mentioned.

Zhou Chen believed that he would definitely be able to find a worthy opponent there.

After rushing for a while at the speed of Mach 10, Zhou Chen suddenly sensed powerful life fluctuations and the sound of battle in the nearby area.

“There's a battle. There might be powerful monsters nearby.”

He immediately slowed down and changed direction.

After a while, he saw a person fighting a group of monsters with extraordinary auras on the ground.

The person seemed to be a young woman. She was wearing armor and a bull-horned helmet, and she held a claymore in her hand. Her opponent was a group of blood-red humanoid monsters about four to five meters tall.

These monsters had strong and agile bodies, and their claws were extremely sharp. The sword light produced by the woman's claymore was unable to seriously injure them. If she was not fighting carefully, her claymore would have already been crushed by their claws.

“Not bad, these opponents are more like it.”

Without exchanging any greeting, lightning exploded from Zhou Chen's body, and he smashed into the ground like a lightning cannonball, piercing through one of the monsters and coming out from its chest.

However, after this ferocious attack, Zhou Chen realized that this enemy did not die immediately. Instead, it started running while the hole on its body was recovering.

The other monsters near it also gathered to support, wanting to surround and attack Zhou Chen.

“Don't even think about escaping,”

Zhou Chen ignored the strategy of these monsters. He only raised his hand and punched forward. An invisible punch instantly hit the fleeing monster, making it seem as if it had eaten liquid nitrogen explosive. Its body was quickly covered in white frost, and then it exploded and disappeared.
“The dual attributes of ice and lightning are really good. One can immobilize and one can explode the target, let's see how you recover now.”

While he was thinking, several monsters had already approached Zhou Chen. These monsters extended their long and sharp claws, as if they wanted to kill him while he was distracted.

However, Zhou Chen's mind was not wandering. He suddenly turned around and kicked in a circle. Then, a ring-shaped invisible wave of air spread out. The many monsters that attacked him immediately shattered as if they had hit an iron mountain, and fell into the distance.
“The combination of metal and earth has quite a high power.”

After crushing the surrounding enemies with one move, Zhou Chen looked not far away. There, the young woman in the bull-horned helmet was waving her claymore to deal with the remaining monsters.

The pressure on her was much lower now. When Zhou Chen had not joined in, she had been at a slight disadvantage and might have fallen into an even more dangerous situation at any moment. She could only rely on her agile movement techniques and extraordinary defensive ability to run while
fighting. Now that Zhou Chen had helped, she had turned the situation around. There were no more injuries on her body, and she could instead heavily injure her enemies.

“This woman's strength is not bad, at least mid silver.”

After giving this evaluation, Zhou Chen turned into lightning and charged over, crushing the monsters with a few punches and ending the battle.

'Then, he opened the system interface to check his gains.

He had heard the announcement while killing the monsters just now, but he had no time to read it in the battle.

{Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the passive skill of the sharp-clawed demon, “Sharp V”. Do you want to absorb it?)

[Sharp V

'Type: Mid Silver passive skill

Your nails are tough and sharp. They can break through targets below the high silver rank.]

“This passive skill is not of much value to me… Absorb.”

After glancing at the passive skill description, Zhou Chen chose to absorb it, even if he did not like it.

At the same time, the woman who had been saved walked over. She placed the claymore in her hand behind her back and took off her bull-horned helmet, revealing her silver-white hair, golden eyes, and a beautiful young face.
“Vera?!” Zhou Chen took a glance at her and exclaimed in surprise.

He realized that the woman he saved was actually the Dragonborn girl he had seen a year ago, Vera!

'The last time they met was in his first mid bronze dungeon, in that Red Valley City.

At that time, Red Valley City was invaded by a large number of blood-red monsters that jumped out of the cracks. Zhou Chen killed some monsters and hid for a while. In the end, when the Survival mission was about to end and the gold coins were buried, this Dragonborn girl came and asked to team up.
“Lhaven't seen you for two years, and you've become so strong.” Vera recognized him a lot earlier. Her beautiful face was also filled with surprise. Her golden eyes sized up Zhou Chen as if she wanted to see through him.

“You've also become much stronger.” Zhou Chen looked at her and replied.

This was not flattery. When Zhou Chen first saw her, she was only at the mid bronze rank to the high bronze rank. Her appearance had not changed at all, but her strength had reached the mid silver rank.

“Vera, why are you here? Where are your companions?” Seeing that the girl was alone, Zhou Chen asked.

“They were scattered in the battle with the Abyssal army. I had about ten companions, but they were killed by the demons along the way.” The girl replied calmly. Her voice seemed to be sad and calm.

“Where are you going next? Do you want me to send you back?” He had known this girl for a while and was prepared to help.

“Lcan't go back.” But the girl shook her head.

“It has dragged on for too long. The spatial tunnel has definitely closed.”

“Closed? The passage in the Forgotten Valley was still fine when I came.” Zhou Chen was puzzled.

“Forgotten Valley? What are you talking about? When I came in, I walked through the huge spatial passage opened by the sage of the Holy Mountain.”

After a round of conversation, Zhou Chen realized that the girl did not know anything about the Forgotten Valley. After chatting for a while, he realized that she did not come from the world he had just come from.

“So you're from the nearby world. No wonder I haven't seen you since we parted in Red Valley City.” Vela gradually understood the situation and nodded. “I know that there are many other worlds, and some are not far away. The Abyss is an example.”
“Is that so… Vera, I have something to do in the abyss. Do you want me to take you to the spatial passage first?” Zhou Chen took out the hovering motorcycle and introduced it to the girl. He said that this thing was very fast and convenient.
“But I'm lost… I don't know the direction of that passage anymore, and it's been more than a month. The spatial passage must have closed.” Vera shook her head and refused Zhou Chen.

She continued, “Let me help you! Don't look at my weak self just now. That's because I've exhausted too much of my stamina after being chased for a month. As long as I rest a little, I can return to my peak state.”

“Okay.” Zhou Chen agreed and turned to look into the distance. He saw another group of ferocious monsters approaching from the horizon.

“These things are here to kill you, right? I'll destroy them first.”

Zhou Chen could actually choose to bring Vera away on the hovering motorcycle, but he realized that some of the new monsters here were worth killing. Perhaps they could drop some passive skills.

After saying that, Zhou Chen turned the Eight Desolates True Energy in his body to the lightning attribute again. His body was like lightning as he charged into the group of attacking monsters. Then, there was a loud bang. His figure flashed in high frequency among the monsters. Every time he flashed,
many monsters would be crushed by him.

A few seconds later.
