Chapter 73 The Abyss Star Gate and the Unknown Journey

The pillar of light of the vow slowly dissipated in the icy abyss, but its lingering resonance, like a brand, was deeply engraved in this ancient and silent world. Su Nian and Xie Chen stood side by side at the edge of the abyss, their bodies flowing with the mingled power of stars and ice, their auras connected and their wills united.

The threat from the Main God Space hangs like a sword of Damocles, constantly reminding them of the urgency of time.

“Since this icy abyss is a place of rebirth, there must be a way out.” Xie Chen’s eyes flashed like lightning as he scanned the endless darkness below. “I can sense that deep within the abyss, there are spatial fluctuations that are different from the original…”

Su Nian focused her senses, and the power of the Ice Soul extended downwards like invisible tentacles. After a moment, her eyes brightened slightly: "Indeed! There... seems to be an extremely faint, frozen... 'door' there?"

The two looked at each other, needing no words. Xie Chen embraced Su Nian, the power of the stars transforming into a protective shield, like a shooting star falling into the extreme cold of the abyss.

The descent felt like traveling through a time tunnel; the extreme cold and darkness were enough to freeze the soul. After an unknown amount of time, in the absolute depths of darkness, a glimmer of light appeared.

It was not natural light, but a stable, slowly rotating, pale blue light gate composed of countless intricate runes, resembling a star map. The gate was embedded in the thickest layer of ancient ice at the bottom of the abyss, its surface covered with layers of ice crystals. The runes were dim, as if its energy was about to run out, and it was in a semi-closed state.

The door is engraved with ancient symbols that do not belong to the vampire world, or even to any system they can fully comprehend, exuding an aura of distant and unfamiliar times.

"A... interdimensional stargate?" Xie Chen stepped forward, his fingertips touching the cold door, attempting to communicate with it using the power of stars. The runes on the door flickered slightly, conveying intermittent information—coordinates missing, insufficient energy, target world... unknown.

“It requires energy to activate, and its destination is unknown.” Xie Chen frowned slightly. “Forcibly activating it would be extremely risky.”

Su Nian placed her hand on the other door, and the power of ice surged in: "Staying here is riskier. We may not be able to withstand the next attack from the main god again."

Her power converged with Xie Chen's power on the door, the radiance of ice and stars flowing, and the dormant runes seemed to be infused with vitality, beginning to spin faster, the ghostly blue light gradually brightening! In the center of the door, the originally chaotic light screen began to fluctuate, vaguely revealing some blurry, rapidly flashing scenes—a steel forest, flashing neon lights, a huge electronic screen... a scene completely different from their own world!

Energy is being rapidly depleted! The stargate is humming under the strain, and tiny cracks are beginning to appear at its edges!

Just as the stargate was forcibly activated, its coordinates appearing and disappearing, about to stabilize—

Boom!!!

An indescribable, terrifying pressure, carrying an absolute will to "erasure," descended upon the Ice Abyss as if the entire sky had collapsed! It was purer and more irresistible than the previous "cleaner"! It was the Main God Space sensing that a major variable had gone out of control, and directly using a deeper level of rule power!

The space above the icy abyss began to collapse inch by inch, turning into nothingness! The aura of destruction pressed down like a tsunami!

"There's no time to locate! Go!" Xie Chen roared, no longer hesitating, and used all his strength to push Su Nian into the star gate where the light was flashing violently and the scene was chaotic!

"Together!" Su Nian grabbed his wrist tightly with her other hand!

Just before the destructive torrent touched them, the two figures plunged into the violently fluctuating portal of light!

The instant they entered, the annihilating power of the Supreme God poured into the abyss! The Star Gate emitted a piercing cracking sound, completely disintegrating under that irresistible force, turning into countless swirling, eerie blue light fragments, which were then swallowed by nothingness.

The Ice Abyss, along with all the secrets and past hidden within it, was completely erased from this world at this moment.

...

Chaos! Utter chaos!

Su Nian felt as if her soul had been thrown into a rapidly spinning drum, with countless bizarre and fragmented images and pieces of information crashing against her consciousness like a storm. Xie Chen held her hand tightly, the power of the stars transforming into the strongest shield, enveloping the two of them and struggling to maintain their direction amidst the raging turbulent flow of spacetime.

After being tossed about in the darkness for an unknown amount of time, a faint point of light finally appeared ahead.

A powerful, clearly targeted suction force pulled them sharply toward the point of light!

After the dizzying spin, comes the real sensation of falling heavily.

Beneath me was a slightly elastic, smooth floor. The air was filled with the scents of disinfectant, plastic, and… a faint, indescribable ozone odor, reminiscent of electronic devices.

The blinding incandescent light shone down from above, making it impossible to open one's eyes.

A cacophony of sounds they couldn't understand filled their ears—exciting electronic music, frantic shouts from the crowd, and a rapidly speaking, high-pitched male voice booming through the loudspeaker.

"Amazing!!! Lin's 1v3! A comeback from the brink of defeat! Congratulations to Team Kings for taking the match point! Are you all excited, viewers at the stadium and those watching on screen?!"

Su Nian barely opened her eyes, adjusting to the light. She found herself and Xie Chen slumped into a narrow cubicle filled with flashing electronic devices (computers?) and strange chairs... Through the huge glass wall in front of them, they could see a vast space outside, like a stadium, packed with people, and a huge holographic projection screen displaying dazzling battle scenes and the words "Kings vs. Gods · Finals BO5".

She looked down at herself; she was no longer a spirit, but a real, warm human body, wearing an unfamiliar short-sleeved team uniform with a strange logo. Xie Chen beside her was the same; his brows were furrowed, clearly also quickly adapting to this suddenly appearing physical body and the completely unfamiliar environment.

The power of the stars within him and the power of the ice soul within her were greatly suppressed in this world, as if they were bound by heavy shackles, their operation was sluggish, and only one-tenth remained.

Just then, the cubicle door was flung open, and a slightly overweight man wearing headphones, carrying a tactical board, and looking extremely anxious rushed in, yelling angrily at them:

"Su Nian! Xie Chen! What are you two still standing here for?! You've completely disgraced the Gods team! Xie Chen, were you sleepwalking during that team fight?! And Su Nian, you haven't explained those scandals you exposed before, are you planning to just tank now?! If you lose the next game, you're both fired!"

The man, spitting as he spoke, slammed the two documents onto the table.

"This is the club's final decision! Su Nian, either you publicly admit your mistake and take concrete actions to make amends and cooperate with Xie Chen to play well in the upcoming matches, or you pay the exorbitant breach of contract penalty and get out of the e-sports circle immediately! Xie Chen, the same goes for you! If you can't find your form, prepare to sit on the bench!"

After saying that, the man angrily slammed the door and left.

Inside the cubicle, only Su Nian and Xie Chen remained, along with the deafening cheers from outside for their opponents.

Su Nian picked up the document on the table and quickly browsed through it. A strange memory flooded her mind—in this world, she was a substitute support player for the Gods esports team. At the same time, because of some maliciously edited and exposed "chat logs" and "photos," she was being condemned by the entire internet as a "green tea fake girlfriend who framed her boyfriend Lin (Xie Chen)!" Xie Chen, on the other hand, was the core ace of the Gods esports team, ID "Lin," but due to his poor performance and the impact of the "girlfriend" scandal, he was facing the biggest crisis of his career.

Xie Chen had finished absorbing the memories of this body. He raised his head and looked at Su Nian. In those eyes that once held the stars, there was now an unfamiliar environment, suppressed power, a sudden identity crisis, and... a hint of coldness and inquiry that subconsciously flashed across his face when he heard the words "fake girlfriend".

In this world without magic and vampires, only keyboards, mice, and e-sports, they have lost their world-destroying power and are burdened with infamy and crisis.

Su Nian took a deep breath, suppressing the chaos in her heart, and met Xie Chen's scrutinizing gaze, her eyes gradually becoming firm.

No matter how the world changes or how identities are reversed, she only knows that the person in front of her is the only one she is willing to pursue even if it means crossing life and death.

She picked up the "ultimatum" and tightened her fingers slightly.

“It seems,” Su Nian’s voice broke the tense atmosphere in the cubicle, carrying a hint of desperate resolve, “we need to find a way to… ‘win’ this match.”

“And,” she looked at Xie Chen, her gaze clear and focused, “I will help you reclaim your ‘throne,’ my… great god.”

Xie Chen stared at her, his memories of "Lin's" frustration and doubt intertwined with those of this suddenly appearing "girlfriend" with an unusually determined gaze. The suppressed stellar power within him seemed to flutter slightly at her words.

He spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of the coldness inherent in his identity, yet something deeper seemed to be awakening within him:

"You'd better...keep your word."

Outside, the narrator's impassioned voice rang out again:

"Dear viewers, after a short break, we are about to welcome the fourth match between Kings and Gods! Can Gods, facing elimination, stage a comeback? And how will Lin, caught in a media storm, and his 'controversial girlfriend' Su Nian cope with the immense pressure? Let's wait and see!"

A new "battlefield" has been set up.
