The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle

286: Chapter 205: Outer God?

Master of Destruction?

286 -205: Outer God?

Master of Destruction?

Su Qi and a group of over ten people followed the sound of the pulse.

Everywhere they looked carried traces of ancient decay; after all, this place was a fragment of the Ancient Battlefield that had crumbled and been suppressed in the deepest layer of the Anxious Land.

The other people were perhaps just astonished by the various bizarre scenes and remnants, which had created numerous dangerous areas.

But the Yellow Robed Priest was different from the others.

He looked at those scenes, obviously aware of something, and with a slightly trembling voice, said, “Su Buxian, I must remind you again that the fragment of the Ancient Battlefield on this last layer is not as simple as you imagine, it is taboo, and it is a great terror.”

Su Qi noticed the Yellow Robed Priest’s hesitation.

“If you continue to speak in riddles, I won’t mind acting according to my own ideas.”

Was that a threat?

The Yellow Robed Priest took a deep breath, his tone growing more solemn.

“Some information is not that I don’t want to say, but rather that mere thought of it here must leave traces, where taboos and terrors prevail—for someone like you, a mortal, the less you know, the better.”

“However, it now seems that I must inform you of this information in order to increase the likelihood of finding a way to survive.”

His voice dropped slightly.

“Now I need to mention a God…

It is right here on this last layer, to you, it is already taboo, terror, the embodiment of death.

You need to prepare yourself mentally.”

“This God…

is…

the God of Anxiety!”

Boom, boom, boom!

As if to match the tone of the Yellow Robed Priest, there was a loud bang in the sky, causing everyone’s ears to ache.

The deep red of the sky and the black fog were gathering, forming huge meteor-like shapes falling from above, crashing down randomly; no one knew when the next one might land on their heads.

Once they hit the ground, one could clearly see various…

twisted beings inside them, howling or altering the terrain.

Strange forces turned it into domains of forbidden rules that were not easy to escape.

Su Qi, eyeing these twisted and terrifying forces, muttered to himself, “Why is there a response just from mentioning a name?

There was no change when the Yellow-robed Master was mentioned earlier.”

“Nonsense,” the Yellow Robed Priest panicked.

“The situation with the Yellow-robed Master is different; after all, that being’s location of slumber is unknown, and it is also an Outer God.”

“As long as it’s not in front of us, there’s no big problem.”

“But the Anxious Land is completely different; it really suppresses a terrifying Divine being.”

Mentioning another deity’s name in the presence of others was like shouting outside the CEO of Penguin’s office!

However, Su Qi didn’t care about this; he had already decided to extract all information from the Yellow Robed Priest.

He pondered softly, “What do you mean by the Outer God that you just mentioned?”

The Yellow Robed Priest sighed, “First, you need to understand that the Gods Palace is a union of the Gods of the Present World, used to oppose the dreadful Abyss…

and the Outer Gods do not come from these two factions.”

Understood.

The Abyss represents evil, the Present World represents order.

And the Outer Gods are basically Chaos or Neutral.

“Outer Gods…

Although not numerous compared to those of the Present World, many among them are frightening and powerful beings, like the Yellow-robed Master.

Ordinary Divine beings wouldn’t be given such significant names like ‘master,’ similar beings include…

Death, Space, Thunder, Destruction, Formless, and so forth…

These are all top-notch beings, typically representing mythical realms.”

Su Qi murmured to himself, “The Master of Destruction…”

He recognized this familiar name.

He roughly knew that the Master of Destruction was very powerful but hadn’t realized it was at such a level.

Awesome.

His debt just got even richer.

“Is there a Master of the Abyss too?” Su Qi suddenly asked out of nowhere.

As soon as the words left his mouth.

Su Qi clearly felt the Yellow Robed Priest shiver but received no direct answer; rather, he spoke faintly:

“Su Buxian, curiosity will only harm you.”

He didn’t answer directly, obviously touching on some secrets he knew.

Just slowly said, “Anyway, the God of Anxiety is the embodiment of despair, dreaded by the Gods, and even consuming vast resources just to barely suppress it.”

“Now, you must be fully alert!

To face the unknown dangers!”

Although the Yellow Robed Priest hadn’t finished his words.

Yet Su Qi had nearly gotten all he needed.

The God of Anxiety came from the Abyss, but it seemed to be only one of the subordinates; who was the being above?

Was it the Master of the Abyss…

or the Evil God?

Or was the Evil God actually the Master of the Abyss?

Whichever possibility, Su Qi felt that the Evil God seemed even more intricate.

The Gods slumbered.

Only the Evil God was sealed but still stirred occasionally.

The man in black suddenly stretched out his hand and said solemnly, “Everyone, be careful.”

“We are about to leave the safe area now.

Everyone must stick together, keep close, and absolutely do not scatter; do not believe everything your eyes see.”

Someone was slightly stunned: “Why?”

“Because…” Fang Li replied calmly, “Based on the journey just now, the pulse sound changes direction approximately every minute, so we need to constantly adjust.

Only the pulse sound is our true guide.”

The man in black looked at Fang Li and nodded slightly: “Good observation skills, but you missed one thing.

It’s not the pulse that changes, but the space…

there are twisted ripples in between that alter the path of transmission, so what you see is not real.”

Fang Li suddenly realized and pondered, “I see…

I have learned something.”

The man in black looked ahead.

The area before them was densely packed…

various skeletal, emaciated naked monsters with elongated limbs sat hunched over, filling the entire path ahead, and they needed to traverse through them.
