"We will reach the deepest part of the Holy Mountain in another ten kilometers. Although the space within the Holy Mountain has changed and is completely Abyssal, the general direction hasn't changed. If there is nothing unexpected, the Ancient God's soul should be inside.
"Even if the Ancient God's soul isn't inside, the Ancient God's body must be in the deepest part of the Holy Mountain. That is where the Ancient God slumbered.
"We have to be careful. It would be best if we don't run into the Ancient God's soul. If we can smoothly destroy the Ancient God's body, we will have won this battle!"
Cross had a solemn expression as he looked at the depths. That place was already filled with dense black fog, and the abundant abyssal power had transformed into fog filling the air.
Their line of sight was blocked over a kilometer away, and the deeper they went, the shorter the distance they could see. From here, they simply couldn't see what was in the depths of the Holy Mountain.
The abyssal power here was so dense that even Clombton's Mana Probing couldn't see as far as the naked eye could. The formidable abyssal power could interfere with all spells apart from abyssal spells.
As they slowly moved forward, their line of sight had already shrunk to a hundred meters, and after going a bit further, their line of sight became a few dozen meters.
In the end, the dense black fog was like a black sea of ink. Everyone within three meters couldn't be seen, and even their mana couldn't be sensed. Their ears also couldn't hear the surroundings.
Everyone could no longer sense the existence of others in their surroundings.
Lin Yun frowned. The power of the Magic Array could only let him have a bit more control over his surroundings than he could see with his eyes. Even the Magic Array couldn't analyze anything beyond ten meters.
The abyssal power here was really too rich. To other mages, it was as if they had suddenly fallen into water. They simply couldn't use the surrounding mana. Apart from their own mana, they felt like they were drowning just by breathing.
But Lin Yun was different. The Void Forge of Lin Yun's three Core Meditation Law Sets was a formidable Meditation Law Set that could smelt any kind of mana.
No matter how unaccustomed he was to this abyssal power, he didn't need to squeeze out a bit of poison-like mana from the Netherstorm at the end of the Magic Era.
Every time he breathed, the surrounding abyssal power would be devoured and refined along with Lin Yun's breathing, turning into Lin Yun's own mana to maintain the shield.
Suddenly, Lin Yun's expression changed. Eight meters away, a person suddenly fell to the ground as if he had lost his soul. His Mana Aura was still flowing, but his Mind Fluctuations and Soul Fluctuations had completely disappeared.
And this seemed to have caused a chain reaction. Shock flashed in Lin Yun's eyes as he frantically ran around. Everything within ten meters would be reflected by the Magic Array.
Lin Yun frantically ran in a circle and saw that all the mages looked as if they had been hit by the ultimate curse of a Cursemancer. There was not a single scar on their bodies, and their mana wasn't consumed in the slightest. Even after they fell, their shields were still operating.
Only their Mind Aura and Soul Aura had thoroughly dissipated. It looked as if they had been hit by the Cursemancer and their souls had been cursed to death.
One by one, they fell. Everyone seemed to fall without any premonition …
Cold sweat trickled down Lin Yun 'forehead as he looked at the pitch-black world around him and mumbled, "Damnit, I can't be that lucky.
"Damn it, I can't be this lucky, can I? How could I encounter such a damned place …"
Just as he said those words, Lin Yun felt a kind of powerful and irresistible sleepiness coming from the depths of his soul. At the last instant, Lin Yun threw all his Magic Tools, Anderfa, Syudos, and even the Draconic Staff into the Natural Demiplane.
After finishing that, Lin Yun closed his eyes and the Law Runic Shield turned into a sphere wrapping around him. Lin Yun floated in the air, his Soul Aura already disappearing.
It only took a few seconds for everyone, including Clombton and Cross, to close their eyes. Their Mind Fluctuations completely disappeared.
In an instant, Lin Yun felt his body becoming infinitely light. His perception seemed to have lost its restraints and his body kept falling.
The dense black fog in the surroundings slowly thinned and Lin Yun felt as if his body had become weightless. He was strangely falling at a rapid speed.
His vision also seemed to have become 360 degrees, he could see everything in every direction. He could even see that not far from him, the others' bodies had turned translucent and were also rapidly falling.
And as they fell, everyone turned into spheres of light emitting a profound radiance. Everyone's mind fluctuations were slowly fading, and the powerful souls of Heaven Rank powerhouses also seemed to slowly fall into slumber.
Looking at his surroundings and even seeing his own soul turn into a sphere of light, Lin Yun couldn't help sighing.
He was about to reach the place where the Ancient God slumbered and was about to face the Ancient God's soul, but he hadn't expected to encounter this kind of thing.
The Fog of Rebirth was rumored to appear anywhere. It could appear in Noscent, in the Abyss, or in Hell. And the frequency of this thing appearing was the highest in the Undead Plane.
Any living being that entered the Fog of Rebirth would have their soul leave their body and reincarnate into another living being. Some of the more powerful existences would frantically search for the place where the Fog of Rebirth would appear when they reached the end of their lives.
As long as they could persevere long enough, they would be able to retain a bit of consciousness during their reincarnation and choose the place and race they wanted to reincarnate into.
But they could at most choose a rough place to reincarnate. What they would reincarnate into depended on luck.
Apart from powerful existences that ignited their Godfire, any lifeform that entered the Fog of Rebirth wouldn't last long. Moreover, they wouldn't feel anything while being shrouded by the Fog of Rebirth. Only when their soul left their body would there be a clear change. But at that time, no one could stop their soul from leaving their body.
When Bane was in charge of Noscent, Bane's most valued subordinate was called the Undying Lich. During Bane's conquest of the Undead Plane, the Undying Lich helped Bane a lot. At least half of the credit could be attributed to the Undying Lich. The Undying Lich's greatest contribution was reducing Bane's losses by at least 60% to 70%.
His understanding of the Undead Plane was as if he had lived there for countless years. The Undead Lich had a clear understanding of the resources and the powerful undead in the Undead Plane.
Later on, when Bane disappeared and the Undying Lich accidentally destroyed his body and transformed into a true Lich, this secret was spread.
The Undying Lich was truly a Lich Monarch of the Undead Plane, comparable to a human mage at the peak of the Heaven Rank. But after reaching this point, the Undying Lich could no longer take another step forward. The Lich's eternal life didn't bring hope, but rather an even more indescribable despair.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would remain at this level until the Undead Plane was destroyed or he was accidentally killed. There wouldn't be a single change for a thousand or ten thousand years.
Later on, the Undying Lich was completely tired of everything, tired of the eternally gray sky of the Undead Plane, tired of those ugly Undead creatures, and even wanted to annihilate his own Soul Fire. At that time, a small piece of Rebirth Fog appeared in his territory.
The Undying Lich unhesitantly walked into the Fog of Rebirth and his Soul Fire extinguished, once again turning into a ball of Soul Energy carrying his consciousness and memories.
He then reincarnated in Noscent and became a freakishly talented Necromancer. He rapidly advanced to the Heaven Rank and was finally subdued by Bane, becoming his subordinate.
Knowing that he accidentally died again, the Undying Lich picked up his previous Lich's Eternal Lich Body and once again became a Lich.
As he recalled this matter, Lin Yun's expression wasn't very good, because this wasn't an ordinary Fog of Rebirth, it was mixed with a large amount of abyssal power. He didn't need to think to know that this was definitely a trap set up by that Ancient God.
This was even more frightening than facing a few dozen Demon Overlords, because he had already fallen for their trap and couldn't resist at all.
He recalled that he had devoured a lot of abyssal power after entering that pitch-black fog, so there had definitely been a lot of Fog of Rebirth mixed within.
As his soul energy slowly squirmed, Lin Yun resisted the urge to fall asleep, because if he fell asleep, he would reincarnate and leave it to fate.
Especially when Lin Yun could already see that a pitch-black door had appeared below. The black smoke converged to form pitch-black Demons emitting black smoke.
A few Demons were dragging a crystal millstone, and boundless black smoke-like abyssal power came out of that millstone and replenished that huge gate made of smoke. The boundless smoke surged and transformed into demonic skulls. These demonic skulls were like laborers supporting that several-dozen-meter-tall gate.
Terrifying abyssal power kept surging out of the entrance, and from a distance, it looked like a volcano about to erupt. Black smoke kept surging up.
'Damnit, I knew it, this is definitely the doing of that Ancient God. That damned b * stard, that guy wants to use the Fog of Rebirth to throw our souls into the Abyss!'
Lin Yun inwardly cursed, but he was powerless to do anything. He could only do his best to stay clear-headed and helplessly watch as his soul, as well as everyone's soul, was thrown into that gate.
After passing through that gate, the surroundings instantly transformed into a world overflowing with light. It was as if a river of light was flowing into the unknown depths of the darkness.
It didn't take long before different planes of different shapes rapidly flashed on both sides of that river of light like murals.
There was a plane filled with flames, a world filled with poisonous gas, and even a world that looked like a ball of fire …
Lin Yun knew that these were the layers of the Abyss. The Abyss was known as the endless layers of the Abyss, but there were only so many with titles and rulers. Most of the endless layers of the Abyss were desolate small worlds that a Lesser Demon Overlord could sweep through. They didn't have any resources or lifeforms.
The power wrapped in the surroundings had yet to dissipate. It was clear that the layer of reincarnation had already been determined.
It didn't take long before Lin Yun felt the power wrapping around his soul suddenly change direction and plunge into a scene on the side.
The surrounding scene was already thoroughly distorted, and only many specks of light representing life could be seen in the distance. Each speck of light had an illusory lifeform's shadow.
The power wrapping around his soul dragged Lin Yun's soul towards those specks of light. After getting closer, Lin Yun's consciousness felt as if he hadn't slept for a dozen days and was about to fall asleep.
He hurriedly glanced at those specks of light. The bigger ones represented stronger vitality and their race would naturally be more powerful, while the smaller ones represented weaker races and would be born as weak lifeforms.
The illusory shadows within the specks of light were the souls that had already been nurtured, and one could roughly see what kind of lifeform they were.
The others that still hadn't fallen asleep naturally knew what to choose. They forcibly adjusted their direction and snatched the bigger specks of light.
One by one, the Heaven Rank souls plunged into those specks of light. How could the already nurtured weak souls be a match for the Heaven Rank souls? When the Heaven Rank souls rushed in, the newly born souls would loudly shatter. They didn't even need to be forcefully snatched.
Lin Yun glanced around and saw that there weren't any big specks of light in his direction. The strongest soul nurtured within those specks of light was only a Strength Demon.
Suddenly, Lin Yun saw the smallest speck of light, and within it, an ugly insect's shadow was slowly being born.
Seeing that insect, Lin Yun couldn't waste any more time. He did his best to adjust his direction and rushed into that smallest speck of light.
Not far away, Steer's soul was already on the verge of slumber. He snatched the quota of a pretty good Demon Race, but he just happened to see Lin Yun brushing past a Demon's speck of light and entering the smallest speck of light.
'Oh, such bad luck, fate is playing a joke on you. Damnit, that guy just threw himself into an insect.
'Hahaha, Mafa Merlin actually turned into an ugly insect, what a pitiful guy. In the Abyss, even if he couldn't be reincarnated into a powerful Demonic Bloodline, he would still choose one of the 72 Demonic Bloodlines. The other Abyssal lifeforms would only be pets and food for the Demons.
'Insects are only food for the ugliest abyssal lifeforms. What a pity, I originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to make that unlucky guy stay in the Abyss forever, but I hadn't expected him to be reincarnated into an ugly insect.
'There's no chance now, those greedy predators of the Abyss … No, even a disgusting Abyssal Slime would be able to get rid of that Mafa Merlin.
It would be the biggest joke in history for a powerhouse to die in the hands of a bug that had no intelligence at all …
Steer was in a pleasant mood as he slowly fell asleep.
And the others on the side saw Lin Yun brushing past a Demon's speck of light and entering the weakest insect's speck of light hidden behind the Demon's speck of light.
Clombton's soul faintly sighed, but he was powerless to do anything.
'It's really a pity, Mafa Merlin is definitely the most talented mage I've seen in so many years. He hasn't advanced to the Heaven Rank and grasped Extraordinary Power, but his strength is already stronger than some 1st Rank Heaven powerhouses.
'When he fell into that unstable small plane, the collapse of the plane didn't kill him. Instead, it made him even more powerful and he was only one step away from becoming a true Heaven Rank powerhouse. He could even advance at any time.
'But now, he unexpectedly fell because of an accident. It's really a pity. In a place full of slaughter and evil like the Abyss, an insect is the lifeform at the bottom of the Abyss.
'All insects rely on huge numbers to maintain reproduction, no insect can live on its own for a day.
'Unfortunately, I can't do anything about it. Who would have thought that the Ancient God's soul would actually use the Fog of Rebirth to set up a trap and open a gate leading to the Abyss. Everyone would fall into the Abyss.
Many people saw Lin Yun reincarnate as an insect and watched the fun. But soon, everyone threw themselves into the speck of light and their souls fell into slumber.
On the other side, after Lin Yun threw himself into that insect's speck of light, his soul thoroughly fell into slumber. He couldn't have any consciousness before his reincarnation.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yun's consciousness reappeared. The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was that huge crimson sun in the sky. It looked at least two to three times bigger than Noscent's sun.
The air kept distorting from being baked by the sun. Everything was swaying in the distance. The surroundings were filled with withered dark green plants and the dried earth was filled with blood.
There was also a large number of Abyssal Magic Insect corpses in the surroundings. These corpses seemed to have lost all their moisture and had turned into dried corpses. They looked like tattered book covers.
An Abyssal Blood Crow descended from the sky and picked up an Abyssal Magic Insect that wasn't too dehydrated. It swallowed that palm-sized Abyssal Magic Insect as if it was swallowing a hard stone.
It picked up a second Abyssal Magic Insect's corpse with its beak, but unfortunately, that Abyssal Magic Insect's corpse was too dehydrated. It was like a hard stone. The Abyssal Blood Crow raised its neck and swallowed three or four times before succeeding. It could only angrily spit out that Abyssal Magic Insect's corpse.
Suddenly, the Abyssal Blood Crow's blood-colored eyes looked in Lin Yun's direction. It was like a mad dog that saw a roasted chicken while eating a moldy bun. It flapped its wings and rushed towards Lin Yun.
Lin Yun's Abyssal Magic Insect incarnation was pressed down by a few Abyssal Magic Insect corpses, but as a living Abyssal Magic Insect, it was the most delicious meal for the Abyssal Blood Crow.
