Chapter 1234 The Will of the Lord of the Abyss
Pillar-level demons are theoretically the most powerful beings on the side of the Night Valley Dark Race.
In the abyss, they can be regarded as the most powerful creatures, almost comparable to gods.
However, pillar-level demons are not true gods after all.
Lin Yu knew clearly that in the abyss, there was an existence that was superior to all pillar-level demons.
"Lord of the Abyss" - the strongest being in the abyss.
Now, according to the general belief of the human forces in Night Vale, this "Lord of the Abyss" should have fallen into a state similar to "sleeping" after being severely injured single-handedly by a powerful human, the strongest adventurer of the previous generation. Except for a few spells directly aimed at him, the Lord of the Abyss will hardly react or move.
However, the general opinion among players is that...
This Lord of the Abyss should have fallen, but his status during his lifetime was too high, so after his death, a part of his will still remained and merged with the abyss itself, forming an existence similar to the "will of the abyss".
But this fall has only made the remaining part of the Lord of the Abyss more noble.
Therefore, before the "Fortune Teller" and "Freud" took action, Lin Yu had already thought of the "best plan" to escape.
Signing a contract with Hershacanus to ask it to help him out of trouble is still not secure enough.
After all, this pillar-level demon came from another world. Even though he can exert strength that exceeds that of his arrival in Night Valley under the influence of [Root Magic Crystal] and [Guest Invitation], he is not the real demon after all!
Even if the real body came in person, it would not be easy to save himself from the Fortune Teller and Freud.
After all, pillar-level demons, especially the Ninth Pillar, which controls "lava and volcanoes", don't sound like the type that are particularly good at protection and rescue.
So let’s think about it in reverse…
Since the contract is notarized and witnessed by the Will of the Abyss, what if the "reward" is set as one's own soul and the Will of the Abyss is allowed to execute it?
This means...
It is no longer the ninth pillar, Hershacanus, who is competing with the Fortune Teller and Freud for people.
It is the "Will of the Abyss" that once truly possessed the status of a god!
And the best part about this escape plan is...
Having your soul taken away by the "Will of the Abyss" is even the worst-case scenario.
Although the Ninth Pillar Hershacanus showed a friendly side when he met him twice, and he didn't seem to have any scheming intentions, he seemed like a straightforward and irritable guy.
but……
Trust a demon that has lived for thousands of years?
Lin Yu is not that stupid!
Who knows if this big devil will turn against him and change his attitude once his soul falls into his hands?
not to mention……
"Order" is knowing that you are on a plane.
If the plane landed, the "Director" disappeared, and if "Order" could gather more information, it would undoubtedly cause him a lot of trouble.
Even if he couldn't find out and couldn't imagine that "Schreiber" and "Director" were the same person, which seemed outrageous but was actually a possibility, Lin Yu was unwilling to let "Order" pay extra attention to "Schreiber"!
Therefore, Lin Yu was prepared from the beginning.
Once the Will of the Abyss successfully takes his soul away, he will begin to exploit loopholes in the rules of the contract to escape.
After all, what he had to pay to Hershacanus was his "whole soul."
And all... does not mean complete.
One only needs to split his own soul into pieces at the moment when the soul is taken away. Those soul fragments that do not carry consciousness can be collected into the [Ancient Notes] and thus be regarded as "ownerless soul fragments" rather than part of his own soul.
In this way, the will of the abyss may only take away one-fifth or less of one's soul.
The remaining soul fragments can be reassembled in the memories that were backed up in the ancient notes, and then you can become yourself again.
It is definitely impossible for ordinary people to do this, but Lin Yu has rich experience in soul splitting.
He was confident he could do it in an instant.
of course……
There will still be a lot of trouble. For example, recovering the large pieces of soul fragments that fell into the abyss will definitely be a time-consuming and energy-consuming task.
The various side effects caused by excessive soul loss will also limit Lin Yu's subsequent activities.
But fortunately, this worst-case scenario is very unlikely to happen.
because……
Just as Lin Yu expected.
Even if it is the will of the abyss, the Fortuneteller and Freud are not without ways to counter it.
The compass rotated, golden light flashed, and the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams changed again, blocking the power and will that did not belong to this world.
Lin Yu felt that his soul was about to be taken away by the will of the abyss, but he was unexpectedly stopped by the fortune teller.
"Sorry, this soul does not belong to you!"
Then, Freud also took action - she realized that even though the Abyss Will was higher in status than the Pillar-level Demon Hershacanus, if it wanted to exert influence across the world, it still had to go through the Abyss Rift!
So... Floyd's soul power unfolded and directly attacked the source of the emergence of the abyss will, the abyss rift above the plane!
The originally scattered soul power now condensed and gathered, wrapping around the abyss crack like a python.
This rift that spans the world is based on the "magic circle" and the [Root Magic Crystal], so in essence...
It's nothing more than some kind of high-purity magic aggregation!
So, Freud's idea is very simple.
Since it is magic and energy, use more powerful energy to crush it!
Of course, Helshacanus wouldn't sit idly by and watch this happen. Even though he had only said he would help Lin Yu once, how could the Ninth Pillar allow Freud and the Diviner to stop the Lord of the Abyss and help him collect his reward?!
The magic power of the pillar-level demon erupted again, and volcanic dust gushed out from the abyss fissure, colliding with Floyd's soul power.
And this chaotic scene, with powerful opponents confronting each other and neither side able to take control for the time being...
“It’s better than my best expectations!”
At the center of the fight, Lin Yu was thinking calmly and calmly.
Now, although the fortune teller, Floyd, the Lord of the Abyss, and the Ninth Pillar on the field are fighting for him, no one's attention is on him!
and so……
For Lin Yu, he can now carry out the next plan in a logical manner.
In the gap when no one is paying attention...
Lin Yu took out a feather pen.
