Free Web NovelChapter 1746: Chapter 953: Taking Action to Rescue
Endless Abyss, Twelfth Floor,
Lis was pouring all his effort into maintaining the Space Channel before him; even with Demigod-level Strength, it was arduous.
The Magic Array beneath his feet was also blossoming with an exceedingly dazzling radiance of Magic Power.
The Magic Items that composed the Magic Array were likewise coursing with such a mighty Magic Power that they trembled faintly, emitting a continuous humming sound.
In truth, when Lis had first learned that the target of Demon Prince Demogorgon on the Twelfth Floor of the Abyss was Mr. Stephens, he had, for a moment, found it hard to believe.
This truly exceeded his expectations!
Mr. Stephens’ Strength, to be able to hold out for so long under the hands of Demon Prince Demogorgon?
One had to know, Cain had clearly stated that the Avatar on the Twelfth Floor was one of Demogorgon’s two strongest Avatars.
This was not because Lis looked down on Stephens’ Strength; it was simply that Demon Prince Demogorgon was far too powerful.
He was equivalent to an existence of Powerful Divine Power at the Main God level within the God System of the Gaia World.
Demogorgon was even faintly the mightiest among those of Powerful Divine Power.
In the face of such a being, how had Mr. Stephens, who was not even a Demigod, managed to persist for so long?
After he learned that Mr. Stephens was a Gaia Guardian, Lis finally found the answer to this doubt.
In other words, the source of Mr. Stephens’ Strength to resist Demogorgon most likely came from the Gaia Main World.
Since Mr. Stephens had been able to break through Demogorgon’s Seal and send out a message, it meant that he had not yet lost the power to resist.
Even if Lis and Tarinda had needed to spend some time on their preparations, the situation should not have become too dire.
Now, however, it seemed that Demogorgon had done something else, causing Mr. Stephens to be completely unable to sense the outside world any longer.
But it did not matter. Since Mr. Stephens was borrowing the Gaia World Power to resist Demogorgon,
then as long as the connection between Mr. Stephens and the Gaia World became closer, that should be enough to give his teacher ample aid.
Moreover, opening a Space Channel between the Twelfth Floor of the Endless Abyss and the Gaia Main World was, for Lis, also a highly challenging endeavor.
After all, for Lis, the greatest trouble he faced was the spontaneous restrictions of the Endless Abyss itself.
Within the Endless Abyss, Space was chaotic and fragile; attempting to leave this place through Space Transmission was extremely difficult.
This was also why, in the vast majority of cases, it was hard for an Abyss Demon to leave the Endless Abyss, or to depart from its current Abyss Plane to another Abyss Plane.
Of course, accepting a Demon Summoning Ceremony and heading to another Plane was a different matter entirely.
That was a method permitted by the Endless Abyss Will, and also one of the key avenues by which the Endless Abyss plundered souls.
The Magic Array beneath Lis’s feet did not only gather Magic Power to pierce through Space; its more crucial role was to maintain this stable Space Channel.
Only in this way could the Gaia World Power pass through this Space Channel and reach the Twelfth Floor.
Tarinda, meanwhile, was also maintaining a Star Realm Channel, but she was far more relaxed than Lis.
After all, Tarinda’s Star Realm Channel only needed to carry Lis and Stephens out of the Endless Abyss.
As for where in the Star Realm they would randomly emerge, that was of no importance.
So long as they left the Endless Abyss, neither Lis nor Stephens would have any difficulty returning to the Gaia Main World.
And as Lis opened the Space Channel, tiny streams of fresh air also flowed into the Twelfth Floor.
It was as if a trace of different, vibrant life had been brought into this realm filled with Death and cold.
At this moment, Stephens, tightly bound by Abyss Power, felt as though he were trapped within an endless whirlpool of Darkness.
He could sense every inch of his skin, every breath of his Qi being wantonly tugged and gnawed at by that Evil and overwhelming Strength.
Even under the Guardian of the Gaia World Power, Stephens could not entirely escape the negative influence of the Abyss Power.
This forced him to focus all his remaining attention on resisting the Corruption of the Abyss Power.
Just as his consciousness was beginning to blur, a faintly strange sensation flashed across his heart like a bolt of lightning.
That strange feeling made Stephens’ brows twitch sharply, as if an invisible hand had given him a vicious tug.
He forced his heavy eyelids open.
At this moment, his eyes, once deep and bright, were somewhat unfocused.
Yet when his gaze swept across Lis’s figure, that hazy look instantly sharpened.
A hint of joy flickered in Stephens’ eyes.
That joy was like that of a traveler long lost in Darkness who suddenly sees a warm light ahead.
Someone actually made it here?!
Without a doubt, anyone who could appear here had to be answering his plea, here to rescue him.
However, Stephens had originally thought the one to come would be Tarinda.
He had not expected that the figure he saw would be Lis’s.
As for this disciple of his, Stephens knew him all too well.
Stephens had long foreseen this disciple’s talent.
Lis was very likely, countless years from now, to stand at his side as an equal.
Yet Stephens had not thought that Lis would have already fulfilled his expectations.
Although, because of the obstruction of Abyss Power, Stephens could not sense Lis’s Qi,
merely by noticing the terrifying glow of Magic Power around Lis, and that Space Magic Array beneath him, intricate to the utmost, Stephens understood everything.
