The first abyss in the Earth-elements Realm was the main battlefield between the Lion Fortress and demon knights.
If demons constantly poured out of the underground world and wanted to step on the land of Eastern Continent, they had to occupy the first abyss and break through the Lion Fortress so as to have a chance to step on Taixia Country from the underground world.
As for Taixia Country, the holy war was carried out on two fronts at the same time.
One was in the underground world which was between the Lion Fortress and the first abyss; the other was above the ground, which was where demon corps poured into other continents and subcontinents from the underground world.
As for demons, this holy war was also divided into two fronts. Demons' attack on the earth's surface could be regarded as encirclement of Taixia Country and the periphery of Eastern Continent; demons' attack in the Earth-elements Realm was going to break out in the center of Taixia Country.
As of now, the two fronts of the holy war were in full swing. This could be seen from the increasingly better treatment provided to the garrisons of those subcontinents and the Lion Fortress in the Earth-elements Realm.
Compared to the front on the earth's surface, this one in the underground world was crueler and fiercer. Because those who could fight demons in the first abyss were at least human knights. Even battle spirits were not qualified to fight demons in the first abyss.
If the earth's surface was dominated by humans, the underground world was dominated by demons.
The first abyss was very large. Nobody knew how large it was. Generally speaking, a place referred to its area, which could be easily measured. However, the first abyss was like a deep well in the Earth-elements Realm.
The width of the irregularly-shaped wellhead exposed to the outside was over 20,000 kilometers, and its length was over 60,000 kilometers.
This was the data that Zhang Tie heard in the Lion Fortress. Zhang Tie didn't verify it; neither did he need to verify it.
Naturally, the walls of such a deep well were not smooth. Even a tiny fold on the walls of the well could be a bizarre area or platform with an area of thousands or even tens of thousands of square kilometers. There was a rough bulge on the wall of this deep well, but it could also be an endless mountain range. The deep caves in the First Abyss were like the holes in the bricks and slabs of the well. Those caves and tunnels might be connected to other abysses and mysterious places …
To a certain extent, the First Abyss was more like a transparent patio in the middle of an irregular tube-shaped apartment. On both sides of the patio were stacked platforms of various sizes, interconnected rooms, passageways, and bloody traps hidden in the darkness.
After leaving the Lion Fortress for one day, a pitch-dark, extremely vast abyss appeared in front of Zhang Tie like a huge black mouth which could devour everything.
In the endless black abyss, there was a thick fog that could not be dispersed.
Because there was no light inside, the fog looked like masses of black fog.
Some human knights flew out of the black mist in the abyss; some entered it. However, all the knights had lowered their flying speed and turned off their battle qi luster the moment they entered the abyss.
In the First Abyss, it was equal to committing suicide to release their battle qi luster and turn themselves into a light bulb in the dark.
Besides a great number of black iron knights, there were also a great number of earth knights. Even shadow knights were hiding in the First Abyss. It was not strange for heavenly knights of both parties to pass by the First Abyss occasionally.
Of course, Zhang Tie didn't want to pretend to be a hero. After turning off his battle qi luster, he closely stuck to the edge of the First Abyss and entered the darkness.
...
Due to the existence of the ubiquitous fog in the First Abyss, Zhang Tie's maximal visibility could only reach a few miles in the First Abyss even with his dark vision.
Many places on the ground and cliffs in the First Abyss were covered with a bizarre abyssal plant.
It was a bizarre vine which was growing crazily in the First Abyss like creepers on the earth's surface.
Each vine of the abyss could reach over 1,000 m. The longest vine of the abyss could even reach over 100 miles. The leaves of the vine of the abyss were dark purple in Zhang Tie's eyes. Each leaf was as large as a pot lid. Its flower was very similar to a tuba, an indispensable musical instrument in the human symphony orchestra! The fog in the First Abyss was released by the breath of the flowers of the vine of the abyss.
The fog purified the dense smell of sulfur, particles and some toxic substances in the air and purified the air in the First Abyss. It also provided a necessary condition for the growth of other abyssal living beings.
Even in the First Abyss, these abyssal living beings also followed some basic rules of the nature — — Without plants that could grow out of the earth, none of the higher species could survive.
The moment he entered the First Abyss, Zhang Tie had caught sight of a finger-sized bee which was hovering on the flowers of the vine of the abyss diligently.
The honey of this kind of bee was inedible. It contained a bizarre toxin. After eating it, it would make people itchy all over. For those with allergy to pollen, the honey of the bee of abyss could almost be fatal to them.
After entering over 50 miles in the First Abyss, Zhang Tie caught sight of a cave behind the vine of the abyss. He then drilled into it...
After a few minutes, a little black beetle flapped its wings and flew out of the cave behind the vine of the abyss with the effect of super hiding rune. It then flew towards the bottom of the First Abyss...
After entering the First Abyss for over 50 miles, Zhang Tie felt like standing on the top of a skyscraper and walking down the first step from the highest staircase.
...
10 days later, on a land covering over 600 square miles in the First Abyss.
A huge demon knight with two horns descended from the fog in the air and landed on this land.
The demon knight's eyes were as red as fire. It appeared very vigilant. After landing on this land, it looked around seriously. After confirming that there was no human knight in the surroundings, it rapidly came to a forest on this land as fast as a lightning bolt.
In that forest, there was a kind of underground plant that was as big as a giant pillar that could support the sky but looked like a bamboo shoot.
After coming to the side of a plant in the forest, the demon knight carefully checked its vigilance arrangements within 100 m. After confirming that nobody else had been here, it let out a sigh. Closely after that, it opened a hole on the plant and hid inside it.
...
The fierce battle in the First Abyss was a great test and consumption for both demon knights and human knights. Of course, knights of both parties couldn't fly in the sky all day long. Knights also needed to find a place to rest. Otherwise, if they stayed too long in the First Abyss, their battle strength would decline sharply.
This woods was one of the hiding places of that demon knight.
That demon knight didn't notice that a little beetle who was resting on a tall plant had long caught sight of it when it entered this forest...
...
