The Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss was the first layer of the Abyss. The area here was very vast, and the environment was harsh. Because of the frequent bloody battles, there were many cannon fodder here.
Demons were not as orderly as demons. The Abyss Legion was chaotic. Every Abyss Legion would have a large number of cannon fodder. The Dretches always liked to swarm around. They bullied the weak and feared the strong. They would only take the initiative to attack when they had an absolute advantage in numbers.
They were afraid of strong enemies, but they liked to bully weak enemies. Finally, under the cruel law of survival of the fittest in the Abyss, they gradually grew into cannon fodder that could set foot on the battlefield.
Usually, Dretches existed as coolies. Occasionally, they would be driven to the battlefield by high-grade demons to consume the enemy's magic. There were many Dretches in the Abyss, but less than 1% of them could evolve from Dretches to Quasits. As for the probability of evolving to a higher-grade Flame Demon, it was even lower.
Under normal circumstances, there might not be one high-grade demon in ten thousand Dretches. In the Abyss, only high-grade demons could be considered to have escaped the stage of cannon fodder.
No one knew exactly how many levels there were in the Bottomless Abyss, but every level had different characteristics. For example, there was a bone-chilling ice field, a neat swamp filled with poison, a salt pool with rising mist, a land of lava with magma volcanoes, a strange wasteland with fierce north winds, and so on. The characteristics of these planes were all bestowed by the Demon Lords and Evil Gods.
The Abyss was unfriendly to everyone. It was very difficult to survive here. This place was filled with slaughter. Even the newly born Soul Worms were devouring each other. Only in this way could they get enough energy to transform into low-grade demons.
However, evolving into a demon was just the beginning of their life as cannon fodder. Although the law of survival of demons was bloody and cruel, their speed of evolution was very fast. As long as they killed opponents of similar strength, they could absorb their souls to strengthen themselves. In theory, it would only take a few months for a Soul Worm to evolve into a high-grade demon.
Suhlen teleported to a relatively remote location in the Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss. There were no high-grade demons around. There were only a few Dretches wandering around.
Su Lun cast the Invisibility Spell and the Flying Spell and chose a direction to move forward.
After flying for about two hours, Suhlen saw a boundless lake in the distance. Just as he was about to approach the lake, a powerful soul wave appeared there. Suhlen immediately stopped.
"This is the Mother of Worms?" In the lake, a gigantic creature slowly floated up. At the same time, a demon egg was sent to the shore by the lake. Thousands of demon eggs began to hatch as soon as they touched the beach. In the blink of an eye, soul worms broke out of their shells.
Seeing this, Suhlen immediately understood that he had come to the Abyssal Blood Pool, the birthplace of the Abyssal Demons. After knowing that this was a blood pool, Suhlen did not continue to approach. The Mother of Worms was a special demigod in the Abyss. They were the guardians of the blood pool in the Abyss, similar to the existence of the Demon Lord.
The Abyssal Blood Pool was the territory of the Mother of Worms. Here, it controlled everything around it. In the Abyssal Blood Pool, there was even some order. Demons could not attack the soul worms. At the same time, all demons or other creatures were not allowed to approach the Abyssal Blood Pool. Once violated, they would be attacked by the Mother of Worms.
In the Abyssal Blood Pool, the Mother of Worms could easily kill a powerful Balor under the blessing of the power of the rules. Even the Demon Lord was not willing to fight the Mother of Worms here.
The law of the jungle was the law here. Being weak was the original sin here. After seeing the Abyssal Blood Pool, Suhlen did not continue to move forward. Instead, he changed direction.
The Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss could be said to be a mix of good and bad. Here, you could meet many humans, Orcs, and elves from the material plane. At the same time, you could also meet creatures from other planes. It was not surprising to meet a plane merchant here.
Trading here used souls, so killing and extracting souls was a legitimate job to make money. There were also towns in the Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss. These towns were basically built by the Demon Lords. There was a set of rules in the towns. These rules were built by the Demon Lords.
After moving forward for more than an hour, Suhlen finally saw a town. However, he did not approach it directly. Instead, he hid and observed. Although he had checked the information about the Abyss before coming, it was better to see the actual situation in person.
This was a dilapidated town. There were not many buildings in the town. Suhlen waited outside the town for a while. A Six-Armed Naga walked out of the town. After confirming that there were no other demons, Suhlen's figure flashed and followed.
The Six-Armed Naga was a high-ranking demon in the Abyss. It had six arms and used six longswords. These Six-Armed Nagas were very strong. The weapons they used were much heavier than the swords used by human knights. When they attacked, the six swords were very fierce.
After the Six-Armed Naga was some distance away from the town, Suhlen began to prepare. He took out the Storm Halberd from his storage space. With a flash of lightning, he suddenly appeared above the Six-Armed Naga's head. The Storm Halberd slashed down with a fierce wind.
Clang! With a loud sound, the Six-Armed Naga, who sensed the danger, blocked Suhlen's attack. However, the power of the Storm Halberd forced it back. Its arms became numb and trembled.
Suhlen did not hold back. His figure flashed and rushed up again. The Six-Armed Naga, who was only a high-ranking demon, could not resist the full attack of an advanced Legendary. In just one exchange, it was defeated by Suhlen.
"Control Demon!"
With a flash of light, the Six-Armed Naga in front of him immediately became sluggish. After seeing that the Six-Armed Naga was under control, Suhlen began to ask it about the specific situation of the Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss.
In the following time, through this Six-Armed Naga, Suhlen finally had a clearer understanding of the Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss.
The lord of the Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss was a powerful Succubus Warlock named Red Shroud. Suhlen was confused about this race and did not understand why it was called this.
The largest city in the Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss was the Broken Zone. It was also the largest trading area. Basically, all the people and other creatures that came to the Plain of Ten Thousand Abyss would come here to trade.
Suhlen had the Naga tell him everything it knew and then had it draw a map. However, the Six-Armed Naga's drawing skills were limited. The map was very abstract and could only be used as a reference.
After all the information was obtained, the Six-Armed Naga lost its value. Suhlen's Storm Halberd gently slid and beheaded the Six-Armed Naga.
"Soul Assimilation!"
A gem flew up. The Six-Armed Naga's soul was instantly bound by a chain and then absorbed by the gem. The originally colorless and transparent gem also turned purple.
"A high-grade soul crystal." Suhlen reached out and played with it for a while. "There are indeed a lot of souls in the Abyss."
With the information given to him by the Six-Armed Naga, Suhlen began to go to the Broken Zone. Along the way, it was a barren land with no sign of human habitation, not even a blade of grass growing, and a deep red sun scorching the earth. Some demons wandered in twos and threes. When Suhlen found a high-grade demon, he would secretly sneak over.
When they were not paying attention, he would launch a sneak attack. Those high-grade demons were not his match at all. Along the way, Suhlen had more than a dozen high-grade soul crystals on him.
The Broken Zone was built near a huge pit in the Abyss. Around the Broken Zone was a collapsed tower. The rocks next to it were bright red with blood.
The blood-red walls were traces of bloody battles in the Abyss. Even now, the remains of high-grade demons were inlaid on the walls. The largest building here was the underground tomb, which had a large number of undead creatures.
Assassination in the Abyss was completely legal. As long as the guards did not discover it, it was not considered murder. Many adventurers who had just arrived here were here.
In the underground tomb, there were also many Shadow Liches. They usually lurked in the underground tomb. Only the lord here could command them. At the same time, this was a good place to dispose of corpses. A large number of corpses were sent here every day. Those Shadow Liches had created a large number of ghouls here. It was very dangerous.
Suhlen entered the town. As soon as he entered, he felt many malicious gazes fall on him. Suhlen coldly snorted. A flash of lightning flashed in his eyes. Those people and demons who had been staring at Suhlen suddenly felt their eyes ache. They knew that they had met an expert and hurriedly looked away.
There was no such thing as hiding one's strength here. The humans and demons did not hide their auras. After observing the town for a while, Suhlen walked towards a market.
As soon as he entered the market, he saw many demons. The demons here were all "merchants." Of course, as soon as they left the town, these demons would become bandits. In addition to these demons, Suhlen also saw some Orcs, Grey Dwarves, and many Succubi. The Succubi here were quite exposed. They barely covered three vital parts.
The Rift Plain had the most Succubi except for the territory of the Succubi Queen. The main reason was that the lord here was also a Succubi.
One had to be careful when trading here. The merchants would cheat, and the transaction had to be settled in person. Once they left, they could only blame it on their bad luck if they were cheated. Of course, if they were discovered during the transaction, the consequences would be very serious. Even now, the corpses of those who dared to court death were still hanging outside the market to be air-dried.
Suhlen's eyes kept scanning the surrounding Succubi. He had to admit that the Succubi were really beautiful and full of temptation. After noticing Suhlen's eyes, they kept throwing flirtatious glances at him. It seemed that if Suhlen curled his finger, they would pounce on him.
