Trials of the Abyss-Chapter 569: The Might of a Mid-Ranking God

Yang Luo was deeply concerned about the relationship between Luo Hongyan and Pang Jian.

In Spirit Offering, Luo Hongyan had spared a girl named Li Yuqing at Pang Jian's request. Later, in Absolute Heaven, Luo Hongyan let Pang Jian and his companions off for a second time.

As a mid-ranking God, Yang Luo had naturally sworn her loyalty to Luo Hongyan after encountering her in Spirit Offering, willingly offering to serve as her attendant and devotee.

After all, the favor of a Sovereign was the greatest honor she could imagine. A Sovereign was exalted even in the starry skies. There was no reason for her to have any connection to a mere human.

Luo Hongyan's divine nature was nearing perfection, and Yang Luo took it upon herself to eliminate any possible threats in advance.

Pang Jian's ability to affect Luo Hongyan's state of mind marked him for death. The fact that he had once destroyed her puppet vessel with the help of a mysterious black turtle only added fuel to the fire.

This was the perfect time to settle old grudges while also eliminating future threats.

"I briefly traveled with her before she awakened. That was all," Pang Jian answered solemnly.

Yang Luo nodded. "The Great One fused with a divine seat through the Dao of Death in the Imperial Dominion. She forgot all about you after that. Still, just to be safe, I need to dispose of you once and for all.

"A True God capable of leaving the Abyss without going through the barrier is a significant threat."

Yang Luo's divine power silently spread, pushing the bizarre mist further to create a larger vacuum.

Sensing something was gravely amiss, Pang Jian quickly expanded his Immortal Divine Soul to become as towering as Yang Luo, thinking it would diminish her intimidating presence.

He soon realized he had seriously underestimated her.

His past experiences with the Dark Bat, the Water Gods, Han Yi's and Ying Yue's puppet vessels in the Shadow Abyss, and even Yang Luo's puppet vessel in the Abyss had led him to the mistaken assumption that Yang Luo would be easy to handle.

It was not until Yang Luo formed a vacuum in the bizarre mist using her terrifying divine power that Pang Jian truly grasped the extent of her power.

Her divine power expelled the bizarre mist with a single cold look.

The divine power emanating from her spider body carried an intensely invasive force that made Pang Jian's Immortal Divine Soul profoundly uncomfortable.

Though the vacuum she created was small compared to the boundless bizarre mist, the fact that she could even form such a space demonstrated her immense strength.

While in this vacuum, Pang Jian's link to his physical body and the Gate of the Abyss in the Shadow Abyss was severed, cutting off his escape.

I have to re-enter the bizarre mist!

Pang Jian decisively retreated with his sword.

The bizarre mist, a source of fear for the cultivators and dread for the divine beings, conversely comforted him. He could only tear open a spatial rift and return to the Shadow Abyss in the bizarre mist.

"I didn't give you permission to leave." Yang Luo pressed her lips together lightly, her expression cold. "Show me the courage you had when you shattered my puppet vessel on that fragmented land.

"You're a True God of the human race now, ten thousand times stronger than before. Why don't you try killing me again?

"You can kill my puppet vessels a thousand times, but it would never affect the real me. However, unlike in the Abyss, the me before you is my true body. The only way for me to truly die is if you kill me here."

Yang Luo's snow-white spider legs moved as if pulling invisible threads back toward her.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Silver spiderwebs appeared in the vacuum.

Layers of web ensnared Pang Jian's towering Immortal Divine Soul. Tens of thousands of fine threads tightly bound his limbs, waist, and neck, all connected to Yang Luo's spider legs.

She tugged these threads with an effortless motion.

A crushing force pressed down on Pang Jian!

Pang Jian's Immortal Divine Soul radiated brilliant multicolored light as he tried to escape the silver webs using his myriad energies.

Crackle!

Fiery sparks, celestial radiance, and frosty brilliance erupted from his Immortal Divine Soul, clashing intensely with Yang Luo's webs.

Arms restrained, Pang Jian instead controlled the Abyssal Demon Sword using his divine sense, unleashing hundreds of dazzling sword lights to slice through the threads.

The torn webs and cut threads rapidly reformed in an endless cycle of destruction and regeneration.

Yang Luo's invasive divine power corroded the energies and will infused within Pang Jian's sword light.

"The Water Gods and the Dark Bat you defeated were mere low-ranking Gods. They could not withstand even a single one of my webs." Yang Luo shook her head with a mocking smile. "Unlike them, I'm a mid-ranking God. You killing such weak, low-ranking Gods means nothing to me."

Gathering her divine power in her gaze, she fixed her eyes on the chest of Pang Jian's Immortal Divine Soul.

Her sharp stare dissolved massive holes in Pang Jian's skin.

Yang Luo's Abrasion Divine Eye allowed her to corrode whatever her eyes landed on, including the sky, stars, sun, and moon.

Many low-ranking Gods, and even some mid-ranking Gods like herself, had their divine power and souls disintegrated into nothingness under her Abrasion Divine Eye, and it seemed Pang Jian would be no exception.

"When I was born, the first thing I saw was a ruined world. My gaze had split the earth apart, dried up the rivers, and crumbled the mountains into dust.

"All living beings marched one by one toward their deaths under my corrosive stare. Only those that sensed me, recognized my existence, and revered me as their God were granted mercy."

Yang Luo's gaze continued to erode at Pang Jian's Immortal Divine Soul, gradually exposing his extraordinary divine viscera.

Pang Jian, still bound in spiderwebs, was dragged closer to Yang Luo. By the time he stopped before her, the skin on his chest was completely gone, leaving his chest cavity fully exposed to Yang Luo's eyes.

Yang Luo retracted the divine power in her gaze.

"You harnessed the foundation of heaven and earth alongside the five elements to forge your organs," she observed, clicking her tongue in wonder. "What a novel and extraordinary concept.

"Your body is like a complete, unique world unto itself. It's truly awe-inspiring. Are all True Gods of the Abyss like this?"

Yang Luo's astonishment only increased the longer she studied Pang Jian.

Meanwhile, hundreds of spider threads coiled tightly around the hilt of the Abyssal Demon Sword, rendering the humming blade immobile.

Pang Jian, this is the true might of a mid-ranking Outer God. The puppet vessels you destroyed in the Abyss were less than one ten-thousandth as powerful as their true bodies, the Abyssal Demon said faintly from within the demonic orb.
