The Abyss of Death is a solo trial realm, divided into five stages: Crossing the Bridge to the Underworld, Passing the Gate of Ghosts, Crossing the Mountain of Formation, Fighting in the Realm of Death, and Plundering the Abyss.

The difficulty is adjusted in real time according to the speed at which the player completes the challenge. If the player is slow, the difficulty will be reduced to a level that the player can barely pass. If the player is fast, the difficulty will increase.

Although it is called a trial realm, the Death Abyss has a high mortality rate. Despite the fact that the Moon Reflection Sect has a detailed walkthrough for the Death Abyss, there are still people who perish there every year, making it extremely dangerous.

For this reason, there is no time limit for clearing the Abyss of Death. As long as you play it safe and act within your limits, you can usually clear it safely.

Arriving at the Death Abyss deep within the Reflecting Moon Sect, Chi Yuan leaped into the thick black mist above the Death Abyss and entered the Death Abyss Secret Realm.

The scene changed, and Chi Yuan appeared in a dark canyon with black stone walls on both sides.

This place is the starting point of the Abyss of Death, the Valley of the Dead.

Chi Yuanyou looked around, surveying the environment of the Nether Valley. Instead of rushing to complete the challenge, he opened the system interface.

"Ding! An Yuxi (Intimacy) has increased her Luck Value by a point. The host receives the following reward:"

[Shared Luck Value]: Points

[Aptitude]: Comprehension +2500, Spirituality +2500, Divine Soul +2500, Potential +2500

"Ding! The host's shared luck value has reached a certain point, and you have been granted one chance to draw a prize. You can open the prize draw interface to participate in the draw."

...

Luck Value: Points

[Talent]: Comprehension, Spirituality, Divine Soul, Potential (Seventh Rank of Spiritual Venerable)

...

An Yuxi not only mastered the power of the Heavenly Tribulation during this tribulation, but also greatly enhanced her imperial nature, and her cultivation level jumped two ranks. She undoubtedly obtained a great opportunity, which also benefited Chi Yuan, who gained a large amount of luck points and aptitude, as well as a valuable lottery opportunity.

Filled with anticipation, Chi Yuan decisively used his lottery chance.

"Ding! Successful lottery draw. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the SSS-level [Special] reward: 'The Secret of the Array Character'."

"The Secret of the Formation": The ultimate in the Dao of Formations, it allows one to easily master and break restrictive formations that are a whole realm higher than oneself. When cultivated to its peak, one can set up and break countless restrictive formations in the heavens with a wave of one's hand.

...

SSS-level reward?!

Chi Yuan clicked his tongue in amazement. The quality of the luck points his wife earned for him was too high. One Martial Arts Heavenly Eye was already strong enough, and now he had also obtained a secret technique of the same level as the Xingzi Secret. How could he be so embarrassed?

It seems I need to hurry up and improve my cultivation level. The higher my cultivation level, the faster my primordial yang energy will be produced, and the faster I can help my wife's physique advance. This is also the only way I can repay my wife.

...

Outside the Abyss of Death, there was a sea of ​​people.

Those who had previously watched An Yuxi undergo her tribulation are now all watching Chi Yuan attempt his breakthrough.

Chi Yuan's ability to overwhelm Ye Chen, a third-tier Spirit Emperor, with his peak Spirit King cultivation, undoubtedly proves his talent and strength.

Whether Chi Yuan can snatch the top spot from Ye Chen on the Death Monument and become the number one genius with both talent and strength surpassing Ye Chen remains to be seen, and everyone is eagerly anticipating Chi Yuan's performance.

"Do you think he can break Ye Chen's record?"

"I think it's difficult. After all, his cultivation level is almost two minor realms higher than Ye Chen's. Even if he clears the level faster than Ye Chen, he may not be able to take first place."

“Absolutely impossible! At the peak of his Spirit King cultivation, he would need to overcome the difficulty of the fifth level of Spirit Emperor to be comparable to Ye Chen. But even if he could overcome it, it would definitely take him more time than Ye Chen.”

"Don't overestimate him. He's only stronger than Ye Chen in combat power. But Ye Chen is an all-around genius, and the Abyss of Death tests all aspects of ability. Soul, mental state, comprehension, and speed all affect the final result. If he were only strong in combat power, he would never have been able to break Ye Chen's record."

"That's right. High combat power doesn't necessarily mean that his talent is stronger than Ye Chen's. Ye Chen not only has combat power at the third level of the Spirit Emperor, but his other comprehensive abilities have also reached this level. To be comparable to Ye Chen in terms of talent, he would have to reach the fifth level of the Spirit Emperor in terms of comprehensive abilities as well."

...

The disciples of Yingyue Sect were discussing among themselves, with the majority still not optimistic about Chi Yuan breaking Ye Chen's record. After all, the Death Abyss was known for its increasing difficulty, and Chi Yuan not only had to overcome the higher difficulty level but also had to do so faster than Ye Chen, making the task extremely challenging.

In fact, setting aside their jealousy and resentment towards Chi Yuan, those powerful figures at the sect and venerable levels did not believe that Chi Yuan could break Ye Chen's record, because they understood better than those younger disciples what it meant to pass through the difficulty of the third level of the spirit emperor with the cultivation of the eighth level of the spirit king and clear the Death Abyss in three days.

It can only be described in four words: Unsurpassable!

"Hmph, even if he works himself to death, he still can't steal my title of the Prince Consort!"

Gan Yang said confidently, "Ye Chen's Divine Yang Body brings not only physical talent, but also complementary talents such as divine soul, comprehension, and spirituality that are above the top. What can Chi Yuan use to compare with Ye Chen's Divine Yang Body?"

"Looks like some people haven't been slapped hard enough. Do you believe that my martial uncle can clear the Abyss of Death in just one day?"

Wenren Bingying retorted in a pretentious and affected manner.

Gan Yang curled his lip upon hearing this, crossed his arms, and glanced at Wenren Bingying with disdain, sneering, "One day? Why don't you just say one hour? Do you really think that high combat power can make you clear the level quickly? Maybe the first test of the soul will hold him for three days."

"Then you'd better wait and see how you're humiliated. Don't be so ashamed that you can't even lift your head up."

Wenren Bingying had a mocking smile on her lips, showing no concern whatsoever that Chi Yuan wouldn't be able to break Ye Chen's record.
