Chapter 1494 Multiplying One Hundred Times
The Abyss Maw wanted to cry. It hadn't expected that invading the Abyss Core would be so difficult. It had been full of confidence, even demanding that the Destruction Sphere not be shut down, believing it could easily complete the invasion under the interference of the Destruction Sphere.
It is the Devouring Abyss, and it knows the core of the Abyss better than Metzburg, knowing where to avoid the fluctuations of the Destruction Sphere.
However, it overestimated itself. Although the sphere of destruction had no effect on it, the core of the abyss was too large, and the layered devouring power far exceeded its expectations.
It originally thought that no matter how large the abyss core was, its devouring power had a maximum value and would not increase further once it reached that limit, because any further increase would cause it to collapse and make it impossible to maintain the integrity of the abyss core.
From the outside, the core of the abyss looked quite intact, so the devouring power inside must not have exceeded its maximum value. However, it was wrong to predict that.
The Abyss Maw said dejectedly in the Soul Wind Network: "The internal devouring power of the Abyss Core is layered. I originally thought there was a maximum value, but I didn't expect that after it was stacked to the maximum value, the time inside also collapsed."
Leonil exclaimed in shock: "Time has collapsed too? Then you'll have to face the layering of spatial directions and the layering of time directions. Imagine someone swinging a hundred sticks at different times, and then all one hundred sticks hit you on the head at the same time. No matter how hard your head is, it can't withstand that."
Leonir is a subordinate god of Ang, but when he pledges allegiance to Ang, he does not use his own divine name, but instead calls himself a believer. Therefore, he is a very rare subordinate god in Ang's system who does not have a divine name. Everyone calls him Leonir or the Wheel of Time.
When it comes to understanding time and space, he is second only to Ang among those present, so upon hearing Big Mouth's description, he immediately knew where the difficulty lay.
Moreover, he has extensive experience in communicating with others, and he immediately described it using a metaphor that everyone can understand; the analogy of a hundred sticks is too colloquial.
Even without this analogy, Negris and the others could understand, because Ang had done similar things many times. Negris said, "It's just like how Ang used to freeze space, release a large amount of low-level magic, and then release the space to release the accumulated low-level magic all at once."
Back then, Ang could instantly cast low-level magic, just like a magic turret. Unfortunately, the power of a single shot was not enough. When encountering enemies with high defense, he could not break through their defenses, and fighting them was like scratching a thorn. Therefore, he used the top-level skill of spatial solidification.
Later, as Ang's strength increased, this method of stacking low-level attacks was rarely used.
The battle that eventually extinguished the Ancient Divine Light also involved the use of time acceleration. Time acceleration was used to disperse the damage from the Ancient Divine Light. Damage that could kill someone in one second was spread over a hundred seconds, so it could no longer kill someone.
The Abyss Core reversed this, concentrating the weight of one hundred seconds into one second, making it impossible for the Abyss Maw to bear, forcing it to call for help.
Ursman asked curiously, "If it's really as you say, then how did Gmelzburg manage to seize the core? Could he withstand the devouring power after the layers were stacked?"
The Abyss Maw said, "It didn't completely invade the core, nor did it need to. It only needed the Abyss Core to move, so it only needed to 'grab' the Abyss Core."
Everyone suddenly realized that all Gmezburg needed was for the Abyss Core to move, whether it was pushed or pulled, it didn't matter. But the Abyss Maw needed to truly occupy the Abyss Core, not only needing to be able to control it, but also needing the Abyss Core to become its source of power.
This is like a withered skeleton trying to possess a black crystal soul; if it succeeds, it will be a complete transformation.
Even the Abyss Maw was crying for help, so Ang had no choice but to lead everyone back to the Silent Dead Sea. Now only King Phile remained, along with the three remaining Star Pullers.
The Star Puller cannot exist independently because its soul resides within its body; once the soul is destroyed, it dissipates.
However, these celestial pull-ins were all powered by Grimzburg. Although their souls were gone, they rushed back before dissipating to inform King Phile.
But before they could even say anything after returning, Ang arrived with his men. Star Pull-Up thought they were coming to chase them and said angrily, "You came so fast."
The next moment, Star Pull-Up turned to King Phile and said, "You can't beat them on your own, so leave here first."
After saying this, the three Star Pullers merged into one and attached themselves to King Phile.
King Phile was bewildered. Of the three Star Skeletons, only Star Puller had escaped, while the Star Zombie had vanished without a trace, body and soul.
Gmezburg, who looks down on everything, actually said that King Felix couldn't defeat these people. This is clearly a weak tone. What happened to make Gmezburg feel so frustrated?
King Phile dared not be reckless and quickly turned and ran, only breathing a sigh of relief after he had run into the material zone.
As the gravity of the abyss core strengthens, the surrounding material belts are constantly moving closer to the abyss core. The distance is now less than half of what it used to be, making it easier to escape.
When Ang and the King saw King Phile flee, they did not give chase. Killing a Star Lord was difficult; they were not the Tree of Myriad Realms. Chasing after him would only lead to a vicious cycle of pursuit, which was pointless.
After this battle, it's likely that Gemezburg will never dare to enter the attack range of the Tree of All Worlds again.
After King Felix left, Ang and his group descended directly to the core of the abyss, immediately shutting down the Destruction Orb upon landing. While it didn't prevent the Great Mouth from invading the core of the abyss, it did affect everyone's ability to extend their soul consciousness and limited their vision.
Once the Destruction Orb was cleared, everyone's vision suddenly opened up, and they all extended their mental energy to scan the dark core of the abyss.
The entire core of the abyss is only ten kilometers in diameter, so scanning it wouldn't be too difficult. However, since the Destruction Sphere was activated before, everyone's thoughts couldn't extend outwards.
It didn't take long to scan the surface, and everyone's thoughts began to probe downwards. Previously, their thoughts had only been on the surface and had not penetrated to the core. Now that they knew there was a power of devouring accumulated inside, everyone wanted to sense it for themselves.
The density of the abyss core is extremely high, so when one tries to probe downwards with their mind, it feels very viscous, like falling into molten wax. Before they could even reach a kilometer, Antoninus Negris and the others couldn't hold on any longer; the energy expenditure was too great, and they quickly retreated.
Only Ang and the King remained to continue probing downwards. Before long, the King sensed something was wrong. He realized that after probing for a long time, he didn't seem to have advanced much.
After probing down for a while longer, the king could no longer bear it and retreated. He then found everyone looking at him with concern: "Your Majesty, what happened? Why did it take you so long to return? Where is the Minister?"
"Long? How long?" the king asked in surprise. He didn't feel like it had been a long time.
“It’s been two hours, Your Majesty. You’ve been gone for two hours,” Anthony said.
The king's eyes blazed with a sudden surge of spiritual fire: "Two hours? That long? It feels like only a dozen minutes have passed."
The Abyss Maw said, "It seems you've ventured into the area of time collapse."
"A time collapse zone? If Ang goes even deeper than I do, won't it take several more hours to get back?" the king said.
The Abyss Maw said worriedly, "No, once we reach the time collapse zone, time will double with each level we go down. If we go down to the hundredth level, each second won't be multiplied by a hundred, but by a hundred times."
The others didn't understand what multiplying by a hundred meant, but only Negris and Leonil gasped in shock.
