The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle

The atmosphere seemed to have turned somewhat heavy.

Soon it was dispersed by Old Five as some drank, while others chatted.

"To be honest, how are things going for you now? Both the forces of the Abyss and the Present World seem to have stepped into this place."

Divine Eye and Su Qi gently clinked glasses and asked softly,

"Although it seems... it has not fully burst yet, the Abyss appears to be at an advantage."

Su Qi took a small sip of the strong liquor, "How do you know this?"

Logically speaking,

the last person trapped here was someone from at least a hundred years ago, yet they still knew about the outside world.

"Of course, we can't know the information from the outside, but..." Divine Eye put his arm around Su Qi's shoulder, "look up."

Su Qi looked up.

This place was made of chains, and the Sky Dome was always illuminated by light, the source of which was the 'Light Ball' in the space above.

"Is that the singularity I passed through when I came in?" Su Qi pondered.

"Right."

Divine Eye nodded, "That is the miniature of the outside Star River, and likewise... if you look closely, you'll find black and white spreading around the singularity."

"And this is the manifestation of the power of both the Abyss and the Present World... Gate World, representing how much of the ancient forces of both sides have awakened," he looked up.

"Whoever has more... holds the advantage, and at the moment it bursts... the great war will unfold completely, with countless fresh and ancient powers all clashing together."

"A new chapter is turned, and the true grand stage fully draws back its curtain!"

After saying this,

Divine Eye slowly had a gleam of eagerness in his eyes, a staggering aura rippling right from his body!

Even causing the liquid in people's glasses to ripple!

The surrounding windows creaked.

There was clearly no wind, yet you could see his sleeves fluttering!

Su Qi watched this scene, the liquid in his glass oscillating, and he raised his eyebrows.

"Wait a minute."

"What is this? Dominance?"

Other people seemed accustomed to it and were not affected.

Instead, seeing Su Qi's confusion, they were somewhat stunned.

"You don't know?"

Su Qi: "?"

"Shouldn't this be common knowledge?"

Everyone looked at each other, then the next moment, each one of them was shaken, and a strong aura burst out violently.

It clearly had no force, yet it could stir up waves of influence.

"This is... Spiritual Force."

Old Five said,

"It is an aura that only those who are born strong can stimulate, everyone here... as I said before, is naturally strong and can easily master it."

"I see."

Su Qi touched his chin.

Isn't this just Dominance?

People looked at Su Qi's puzzlement, somewhat confused themselves, "You really don't know."

"This is something that anyone who steps into Sequence 6 will know at the moment of Ascension."

"Is that so?"

Su Qi spread his hands, "Then that makes sense, because I am only at the Seventh Rank right now."

As soon as these words were spoken,

Everyone's faces froze a bit, looking at Su Qi with some shock:

"You're only at Seventh Rank!!!!"

Su Qi: "?"

"I also didn't see any sign hanging in the previous corridor saying 'No handsome guys and Seventh Rank allowed'."

Old Five took a deep breath,

"That's because, as mentioned before, this place has great restrictions on extraordinary strength, so those who are Sequence 5 and above, including Sequence 5, find it difficult to enter."

"So everyone who enters here is almost all at Sequence 6, the highest level of combat strength below the extraordinary, after all, to confront the Old Days, the World Tree Leaf would select people capable of fighting those ancient beings from the Old Days."

Su Qi raised his thumb slightly, "Means it has good foresight to have chosen me to come in, and it sounds like the sequence level isn't the only criterion for judgment."

"...."

Old Five looked at Su Qi with a feeling of already having had a good run, and he chuckled helplessly, in agreement,

"That's right, although 99% of the people here are Sequence 6, it's reasonable to have exceptions now and then."

But this was quite the exception.

No wonder they were surprised, after all, the gap between Sequences grows larger the higher you go, and there's a huge gulf between Sequence 6 and Seventh Rank.

Logically and morally, a Seventh Rank would not be chosen to enter.

"But this also implies that you must have a very strong potential, after all, to be recognized and also to have passed through that dangerous and terrifying Despair Corridor." The latest chapters are uploaded first on M|V|LE3MPYR.

Divine Eye also gently patted Su Qi on the shoulder.

"That corridor is indeed a bit longer than I had imagined," Su Qi paused, "Is it very difficult to get through?"

"Of course."

Divine Eye said dispassionately,

"After all, that is the Old Death Corridor, in reality, more than just the hundred people present were chosen, but 99% of them could not pass through that corridor to reach here."

Old Five beside him chuckled lightly,

"Those four guys from Deep Blue you saw earlier, the few of us are actually from the same Boundary, kind of like fellow countrymen, previously we even had a competition on this, ranking seniority based on the time it took to pass through the corridor."

"I'm ranked fifth, so I'm called Old Five."

"Is that so, I feel sympathy for the one called Old Six," Su Qi lifted his glass.

Divine Eye laughed gently, "Although he is Old Five, he... used one of the shorter times. Among the people here, he's also ranked towards the front, of course, we aren't far behind either."

"How long did it take each of you?"

Su Qi was genuinely curious.

The person next to him lit a cigarette and waved his hand, "I'm not so good, it took me 31 days because I was extremely careful and edged my way over."

"Divine Eye and Old Five are both around 15 days."
