He did not utter a word, nor did he hesitate in the slightest.
In the next instant, His slender body, composed of seven-colored black light, suddenly spun around, instantly transforming into a stream of seven-colored black light that was both dazzling and profound.
The speed of this beam of light exceeded the comprehension of Mark and the others. With a shrill whistle that tore through space, it crashed headlong into the starlight chain that Ellen had constructed using the Star Moon Black Gold Mother Coin, which connected her to the escaped demon god Andro Marius!
Yes, it was as if the power of the Star Moon Divine Force had not rejected Him at all, and He easily integrated into it!
The seven-colored black light followed the star track channel formed by the laws of stars and moon, like an electric current passing through a wire, at the true speed of light, ignoring the barriers of space and the abyss plane, and rushed wildly towards the direction where Andromarius had fled in panic at the bottom of the abyss along the path that Ellen had already laid out!
Andromarius, who was just immersed in the joy of his impending escape and was distracted by mocking Eleanor and the pursuers behind him, suddenly had his chaotic thoughts come to an abrupt halt.
A terrifying aura, far colder and purer than the pursuers behind, filled with an absolute "devouring" will, like icy water, instantly filled His perception along the starlight chains that were about to fail!
What is that?!
Andromarius's escape came to an abrupt end.
This feeling... is far more terrifying than those greedy, hunting demons behind me! Far more... powerful!
His demonic body convulsed violently instinctively, the fear from the depths of his soul overriding all calculations.
The nightmare from hundreds of years ago that nearly overturned the abyss has torn my memory apart without warning, as clear as if it happened yesterday!
That day...
A piercing shriek ripped through the eternal silence!
An indescribable stream of seven-colored light, carrying terrifying power that made the entire Demon Realm tremble, pierced through layers of abyssal planes like a spear of divine punishment, and finally plunged into the deepest and darkest bottom!
Boom! ...
An unimaginable surge of magical energy, like a world-ending tide, swept wildly upwards from the depths of the abyss!
At that moment, the abyss wailed, and space twisted and collapsed.
The low-level demons didn't even have time to howl before they were torn into the most primitive demonic dust by the shockwave, like withered grass swept by a hurricane, instantly clearing out a large area.
Even the lairs of the higher-ranking demon gods were shaking violently, and their laws were in disarray.
They, including Andromalus himself, were like frightened insects, cowering in the deepest shadows, not daring to utter a single thought, with only a deep-seated terror spreading wildly.
They even thought that the Kingdom of Heaven, which had been silent for countless years, had finally decided to thoroughly cleanse the abyss, and that the army of the gods had already descended!
When the earth-shattering tremors finally subsided, the abyss fell into a deathly silence.
However, beneath the deathly silence lies an even more turbulent greed and curiosity.
Some demons, either overconfident in their power or tempted by the terrifying power contained in the fallen object, could not resist and cautiously ventured into the depths of the abyss.
Andromalus was one of them.
He lurked behind the filthy demonic cloud, peering toward the core of the tremor.
Then, He witnessed a scene He would never forget.
A corner of the eternal darkness at the bottom of the abyss was torn apart, and a vaguely shaped entity, shimmering with seven-colored light, floated silently.
Not far ahead of Him was Bartos, the "Blood God," who was also a high-ranking demon god!
Bartos's enormous, twisted, blood-red demonic body was unleashing a monstrous, blood-sea-like divine power, attempting to pounce on the seven-colored being.
However--
There were no earth-shattering collisions, no evenly matched entanglements.
The seven-colored entity merely... shifted slightly.
A faint, almost imperceptible stream of seven-colored light flashed by, like the sharpest blade of law, easily... tearing apart Bartos's proud Blood God body!
The power of destruction instantly invaded!
Bartos's demonic body, which was strong enough to withstand the abyss storm, was like ice and snow thrown into a furnace. He couldn't even let out a scream. His huge body melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye under the erosion of the seven-colored light!
The divine essence was forcibly extracted and devoured!
He couldn't even hold on for a single breath!
Only a single, cracked, dark red blood core remained, embodying His last essence and will. In the instant before His demonic body completely collapsed, it fled into the deeper dark crevices like a stray dog and disappeared.
The instantaneous absorption was so fast that it froze Andromarius's mind.
What terrified Him even more was that, in the instant Bartos's blood core fled, He clearly sensed that the seven-colored being seemed to... slightly tilt its "head".
Countless cold, fiery gazes, mixed with pure devouring desire, seemed to pierce through the layers of mist in the abyss and landed on the demonic cloud where He was hiding!
The feeling was like being pierced in the soul by millions of invisible poison needles at the same time!
All of Andromalus's courage and greed vanished in an instant.
He didn't even dare to think whether the source of that gaze was the seven-colored being itself, or whether it had attracted something even more terrifying.
Only one thought remained in his mind—escape!
Get as far away as possible!
Stay away from the bottom of this abyss, stay away from this monster that devours everything!
He almost burned his very essence, used every life-saving technique he had, and desperately rushed back to the relatively "safe" upper-middle abyss.
Since then, He has kept the depths of the abyss a closely guarded secret and has never dared to set foot there again.
The tragic end of the Blood God Bartos, who escaped with only his blood core, was etched into the depths of his demonic mind like a brand.
More than ever, He longed to escape this dog-eat-dog abyss, to flee like the Blood God, even at a great cost, to get away from this desolate place that could be swallowed up by unknown terrors at any moment!
And now...
This damn feeling!
This cold, pure will to devour!
This is a stream of colorful light surging along the star trail!
How similar it is to the light that devoured the Blood God Bartos in the depths of the abyss back then!
No!
Even more powerful!
Even more terrifying!
After all, the light before was truly seven-colored, while the one before us is based on the black of the abyss!
Fear, like a poisonous vine, instantly entangled Andromarius's core demonic thoughts.
It's "that thing"!
It's "that thing" that fell to the bottom of the abyss back then, chasing after us!
He was actually able to descend with power through the star trails!
Despair, true despair, overwhelmed this high-ranking demon god of the abyss.
He had only been watching from afar when he was so frightened by that gaze that he fled in panic.
At this moment, He was firmly locked in place, his power severely restricted... the prey!
Even the Blood God Bartos, in his prime, was instantly devoured without any resistance, with only his blood core escaping. Andromarius, in his current state...
He had no chance to resist at all!
