Ye Fan's feet propelled him forward with a sudden burst of force!
Miles upon miles, covered in an instant!
The next moment, Ye Fan stood before the palace!
That's right, standing on his feet.
If one were to look from afar, they would notice Ye Fan was actually upside down.
However, Ye Fan felt no discomfort whatsoever.
His body had automatically reoriented itself as he approached.
He felt no different than standing on the ground, with no sense of being upside down.
Ye Fan looked around curiously.
He noticed a formation pattern had appeared beneath his feet.
If his guess was correct, this was what was keeping him in his current state.
He could clearly feel that this was not something he had summoned, but seemed to be an inherent part of the environment.
Ye Fan took a few tentative steps, and found that the formation followed him.
How interesting.
Ye Fan surveyed his surroundings.
Beneath his feet, there was actually an aerial island.
It had been obscured by mist and black lightning earlier, which was why it wasn't visible from the ground.
The palace he had seen earlier now stood not too far in front of him.
The feeling of being summoned had emanated from within.
Now, standing before the palace, that feeling was so intense it was almost overwhelming!
Ye Fan walked to the grand entrance.
As soon as he extended his hand, the door opened on its own.
It was as if it were welcoming him inside...
The moment he stepped through the entrance, everything around him changed.
Walls and ceilings vanished, leaving only chaos.
Everything was a vast expanse of white, with no visible end.
This felt somewhat similar to the combat arena within the Devouring Origin Heavenly Ladder.
Except the white mist had been replaced by the breath of chaos.
And as Ye Fan entered, these chaotic breaths surged towards him!
Ye Fan's mind buzzed!
Fragmented memories flashed rapidly through his mind!
These were the experiences from his 99 previous reincarnations.
But the scenes flashing in his mind now seemed different from his memories.
The biggest difference was in the system!
Before, Ye Fan had always believed he was tricked to his death by the system in each life.
But these scenes now told him that wasn't the case!
Or rather, his deaths in previous lives had nothing to do with the system!
It was a pity the memories were too fragmented to make sense of what had happened.
He vaguely grasped some key points, but couldn't piece together the complete truth!
The only thing he could be sure of was that he had perhaps wronged those systems before...
As the last scene faded, Ye Fan's surroundings returned to the grand hall.
The chaotic energy had all vanished, leaving behind an empty shell.
The walls and roof of the hall were bare, with no decorations.
The overall impression was one of extreme antiquity, as if it had existed for an immeasurable amount of time.
And as the chaotic energy disappeared, the entire hall began to collapse without warning!
No, not just the hall.
Even the island beneath his feet began to crumble!
Within a few breaths, the entire hall and island vanished completely!
Ye Fan's body fell downwards uncontrollably.
This was where the importance of flight became apparent.
For an ordinary cultivator, even a novice at the Golden Core stage, flying away would be effortless.
But Ye Fan couldn't fly, and could only watch himself fall...
Fortunately, Ye Fan wasn't panicking.
His current physical strength had reached an absurd level!
Let alone a fall from thousands of miles.
Even many times higher, and he would be perfectly fine.
But as the saying goes.
Surprises and accidents often arrive so suddenly.
As Ye Fan landed, the ground beneath his feet cracked open without warning!
A gaping chasm, hundreds of feet wide, suddenly appeared before Ye Fan's eyes!
The pit was pitch black, and its bottom was invisible.
Unprepared, Ye Fan fell into the abyss...
In fact, if Ye Fan had wanted to, he could have easily avoided this chasm.
For instance, when the chasm first opened, Ye Fan could have used the edge to propel himself away.
Indeed, he had initially intended to do so.
He abandoned the idea because Ye Fan suddenly discovered that there was something peculiar about this pit!
For from the depths of the pit emanated an aura that felt strangely familiar!
The place he had been searching for desperately, yet never found!
The Abyssal Demon Realm!!!
The aura of the Abyssal Demon Realm was too unique, Ye Fan could never mistake it.
No wonder he had never found it before.
After searching for so long, the entrance to the Abyssal Demon Realm was actually in the Demon Realm!
Although he had no intention of seeking death there now, since he had encountered it, he might as well take a look.
To be honest, Ye Fan wasn't sure what the chaotic breaths he had absorbed were.
After absorbing them, his body showed no strange reactions, and his cultivation level remained unchanged.
He could only ascertain that these substances were no longer energy-based and did not contribute to power enhancement.
Yet, shortly after he absorbed them, the hall and island, which had been perfectly fine, collapsed and vanished.
And now, a bottomless pit had appeared on the ground!
If he were to call all this a coincidence, Ye Fan would never believe it!
His intuition told him that all of this must be interconnected.
It seemed as though everything had been preordained!
With this thought, Ye Fan's mind conjured the image of those two gigantic, malevolent eyes once more...
Not long after Ye Fan fell in, the pit suddenly closed up.
The ground looked no different than before, as if nothing had happened.
Ye Fan's body continued to descend.
The surroundings were completely dark, he couldn't see anything.
Only the whistling wind in his ears reminded Ye Fan that he hadn't reached the bottom yet.
After an unknown period of time.
Ye Fan's vision suddenly blurred.
When his sight returned, he found himself standing on the ground.
However, it wasn't the feeling of falling to the ground, but rather a sudden appearance.
It felt like being teleported instantaneously.
The familiar surroundings confirmed Ye Fan's earlier speculation.
He was currently on the first layer of the Abyssal Demon Realm!
And the reason he was so certain was that several Timeless Demons were approaching him.
Timeless Demons were natives of the first layer of the Abyssal Demon Realm, and were also the most numerous.
These creatures were roughly equivalent to cultivators at the Integration stage for humans, and posed no threat to the current Ye Fan.
Perhaps sensing the powerful aura emanating from Ye Fan.
The Timeless Demons, realizing the situation was unfavorable, immediately turned and fled!
Ye Fan flashed forward, grabbed a Timeless Demon, and began to absorb it.
Although he had descended into the Abyssal Demon Realm many times before, he wasn't sure if this Abyssal Demon Realm was the same as the one he knew.
For example, in some of his past lives.
Although they appeared similar on the surface, there were still differences.
In one of his most unfortunate encounters, he had run into a Soul Devouring Lord on the first layer of the Abyssal Demon Realm!
A Soul Devouring Lord from the tenth layer of the Abyssal Demon Realm possessed strength equivalent to an Earth Immortal!
Ye Fan, who was only at the early Tribulation Crossing stage back then, had nearly wet himself!
That time, it was because Ye Fan had discovered it early and fled before the Soul Devouring Lord noticed him.
Otherwise, he would have likely perished on the spot...
Although Ye Fan no longer feared death, understanding certain things was still beneficial.
He also wanted to see if absorbing these abyssal demons could help him gain experience.
In the Human Realm and the Demon Realm, he had completely run out of ways to gain experience.
It was like a max-level character fighting level-one monsters, a complete waste of time.
If these demons were useful, that would be fantastic!
After all, the Abyssal Demon Realm was not short on anything else, its demons were inexhaustible!
The Human Realm was vast, and the Demon Realm even larger.
But compared to the Abyssal Demon Realm, both realms were, at most, two small villages...
Although continuing to level up seemed meaningless now, it was still a good thing.
After absorbing this Timeless Demon, Ye Fan frowned.
He could feel power flowing into his body, but the amount was far too small.
If he were to rely on absorbing these creatures, he would likely consume the entire first layer and still see little effect.
Based on the Timeless Demon's memories, Ye Fan flew in a certain direction.
Each layer of the Abyssal Demon Realm was connected to the next by something similar to teleportation arrays.
And these teleportation arrays could be used without any restrictions.
Even weak, newly born demons could easily use them.
However, in most cases, no demon would do so.
Because if their strength was insufficient, descending would simply be a suicidal act.
The relationships between demons were not friendly.
In fact, they could be described as brutal.
For one of the ways demons improved their strength was by devouring their own kind!
If this were in the Cultivation World or the Demon Realm, people would generally consider relationships and social ties.
Unless there was deep-seated hatred or immense profit involved, they wouldn't engage in random conflicts.
But in the Abyssal Demon Realm, it was entirely different.
There was no room for camaraderie among any of the demons!
Weakness was a sin, dooming one to be devoured by higher-level demons!
Even among the high-level demons, the situation was largely the same.
For example, the powerful individuals under a demon lord never gave up the idea of killing their own superior!
Once the opportunity arose, they would strike without hesitation!
The only reason they didn't act normally was that they couldn't defeat them.
The rule of the fittest was exemplified to its extreme in the Abyssal Demon Realm!
