Chapter 253 The Wise Titan

Passing through the black curtain, Yan Nu came to the so-called abyss.

He was walking in a mountain range. There were no trees in the mountains and there were jagged rocks everywhere.

The stones are sharp and rough, making you feel uncomfortable when you step on them.

Even the sky is made of stone. The so-called abyss seems to be a canyon that crosses over. The whole world is caught between two huge rocks.

There are various environments here, with clear distinctions: mountains, lakes, grasslands, jungles, glaciers, deserts, deep seas, lava...

There are even areas that are filled with sulfur and acid, filled with lightning and storms, so even if there is no sun, it is not dark here.

The place where Yan Nu was at this moment was just an ordinary desolate stone mountain.

In the distance, you can see human figures, like many giants.

The most conspicuous among them seems to be ten thousand feet tall, standing on the top of a mountain, with his arms spread out and his shoulders carrying the sky.

It seemed that the huge rock in the sky didn't push down because he was holding it up.

Yan Nu was looking at the so-called abyss when he suddenly felt that many consciousnesses entered his underworld.

If you look closely, there is a consciousness that is particularly familiar.

"Eh? Isn't this Pluto?" Yan Nu said hello to Hades in the artistic conception space.

"Uhhhhhhh!"

Hades's consciousness howled in extreme pain, and he felt the beyond-boundary pain of Yan Slave.

But this time, he had no way to escape and was unable to avoid it. He was running around and rolling around in the artistic space.

"Why did you die?" Yan Nu asked again.

Hades screamed in pain: "Stop! Stop oh oh oh!"

Seeing that he was unable to communicate like this, Yan Nu immediately lifted the flame-transforming technique and turned into a young girl, Jiang Yan'er.

It seemed that she was just an ordinary girl's soul. All the magma and Styx water had disappeared, and she was hidden somewhere.

Not to mention, the pain disappeared after switching.

After all, the soul of the young girl Jiang Yaner has neither polluted the river of flames nor filled it with anything messy.

"Hey, Hades, were you beaten to death by the poor devils?" Yan Nu asked.

"You care for you..."

Hades relaxed for a moment, looking desperately at the big fireball and the countless light spots of consciousness suspended around it.

He understood that Yan Nu had intercepted his consciousness, and he was reduced to the same situation as Mars.

"No..." Hades became more and more desperate as he thought about it.

When he fell into this situation, he no longer had any arrogance to speak of.

If he simply lost his power, Hades could still find a way, but the pain beyond the limit was really unbearable, and he didn't want to suffer it again just thinking about it.

"Your last blow killed me." Hades did not say that he collapsed and committed suicide.

"Oh...is this the abyss?" Yan Nu shared the scene with him.

Hades said bitterly: "Yes... the task I set for you is to count how many grains of sand there are in the abyss. You will feel this task as long as you think about leaving the abyss, but it is almost an impossible task. .”

Yan Nu thought about it and realized that he had indeed sensed it, as if the whole world was telling him that there was an unfinished task.

He will never be able to leave until he counts the right amount of sand here.

"Counting sand? Why can't it be done?" Yan Nu thought to himself that the abyss didn't feel that big.

Hades told him: "The owner of the abyss can create various scenes, and the environment of each area can be switched at will."

“In addition to following normal rules, scene things can also add ‘task rules’.”

"For example, in all areas you pass through, the number of sand particles will change."

"Even if you can finish counting, when you count an area, the sea behind you turns into mulberry fields, the desert turns into plains... and you count in vain."

“You will linger forever in the abyss counting grains of sand and never lose count.”

Yan Nu took a few steps to the top of the mountain, akimbo and looked out.

First of all, counting sand is difficult enough, and the scene will change, so this is simply a deliberately difficult task.

"You said it was your mission? You are the owner of the abyss..."

Hades felt that Yan Nu's tone was unkind and quickly said: "It was before...but not now."

"Who is it now?"

"Whoever masters my main artifact, the Scepter of the Underworld, controls the space of the underworld, and then becomes the owner of the abyss."

"Oh? That scepter?" Yan Nu recalled: "If I had gotten the scepter before, I could open the underworld, return the sun?"

Hades muttered: "You still have to be able to use it... you must have the power of Pluto, which is the main artifact derived from my power of Pluto."

Yan Nu knew that Hades was afraid of the pain beyond the limit, but there was no guarantee that he would not lie to him.

So he said suspiciously: "You didn't lie to me?"

Hades said bitterly: "How dare I lie to you... I have lost my divine power, but Pluto will not just disappear, so there should be a second me outside."

"And the Tartarus Abyss recognizes its master by 'parasitizing' time and space. Once parasitized, it cannot be changed."

"In the beginning, the entrance to the abyss was parasitic on the eternal night space of the goddess of night, and the eternal night space was parasitic on the goddess of night. So she could formulate tasks and create and change the environment in the abyss."

"Later, I defeated the goddess of the night and integrated her space into my underworld, thus becoming the new owner of the abyss."

"Originally, when the underworld passes through any boundary, it will come out from the other side. Since being parasitized by the abyss, three sides have been covered by the entrance to the abyss, which is the huge black curtain you passed through."

Yan Nu suddenly realized, so it is like this. Is it so easy to recognize the master?

No, it's not simple either. Ordinary people don't have the space to be parasitic on themselves.

But, he does, and there are many more.

Once the entrance to the abyss is parasitized, it cannot be changed, but the parasitized time and space can change its owner. As long as the underworld is captured and included in Daozang, it is equivalent to recognizing the owner of the abyss.

"But I can't get out. Is there no other way to get in and out?" Yan Nu scratched his head and asked.

Hades said seriously: "No, this is the most absolute, the mission must be completed."

"Many Titans are trapped here, and they can't leave even if they try their best."

"Even if you want to let them out, you can't, because once the mission is designed, it cannot be changed."

"Is this so..." Yan Nu murmured, and suddenly saw a large rolling stone on the ridge ahead.

Instead of rolling down, it rolls toward the top of the mountain.

Yan Nu hurried over and saw that someone was struggling to push the huge stone ball.

The man had a big beard and a determined look. His bare feet stepped on the sharp gravel, and his body was covered in scars.

But he was still struggling to push the boulder to the top of the mountain. Seeing that he was getting closer, he seemed to have no strength. The stone ball rolled in the opposite direction and was about to run over the man.

"Be careful!" Yan Nu didn't care about anything else and rushed over quickly.

Two seemingly thin arms held the stone ball in place.

"Are you okay?" Yan Nu grinned.

"Thank you, madam." The man under the stone ball was surprised to see that Yan Nu's thin body had such huge power.

Yan Nu tilted his head and said, "Madam? I am neither a woman nor a scholar."

The man didn't know what he meant. It was clear that Yan Nu was a woman, and with such power, she must be a noble from the East.

But he did not dwell on this question, and was polite enough to say: "The Eastern Soul from Siris? It's really rare."

"My name is Sisyphus, the blasphemer."

Yan Nu chuckled: "What a coincidence, I am also a blasphemer."

Sisyphus raised his eyebrows and said, "This is no coincidence. Those who are thrown into the abyss are all blasphemers."

"Why are you pushing rocks here? Is this your mission?" Yan Nu asked.

Sisyphus smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, my task is to push the stone ball to the top of the mountain within one day. If it times out, everything will go back to the bottom of the mountain and start all over again."

"It's so light, let me help you." Yan Nu felt it was very simple and easily pushed it upward.

Although he switched to the dead soul of a mortal girl, the fusion objects such as the River of Styx and the River of Fire were gone, but his spiritual power was still there, and he was extremely powerful.

However, as soon as he pushed it, Yan Nu immediately felt his strength draining away rapidly.

Soon I lost my energy and it was very difficult just to hold on.

"Boom..." The boulder rolled in reverse and crushed it.

Yan Nu was pushed down on the spot!

Sisyphus quickly pushed up, but could not hold on and was crushed again.

"The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the greater the power consumed, and it's proportional."

"No matter who is pushing, they will definitely run out of energy when they approach the top of the mountain...Eh? How did you hold on?"

Sisyphus explained his mission, but saw Yan Slave being pushed down, sobbing on the ground, and suddenly jumped up!

As if full of energy, he stretched out his hands and held up the boulder ball again.

Yan Nu grinned: "So, no matter how hard you apply to this stone, it will consume 90% of your strength."

Sisyphus nodded and said: "Because ninety percent of the way up the mountain has been passed, it took me nearly a day, intermittently, to finally push it here."

Yan Nu asked: "Anyway, it will consume 90% of my strength. Can I throw it up in one breath?"

"No, it must be pushed." Sisyphus shook his head.

"I don't know how you will regain your strength, but the time is coming."

"Hurry and hide away. Everything will be restored to its original position in no time, and you can start over again."

"I have been trying this for five hundred years."

"Really..." Fighting spirit burst out in Yan Nu's eyes: "You have to hurry up! I'll push it up!"

"You help me push it up?" Sisyphus was surprised.

Yan Nu asked: "Isn't it possible? Can't I help complete the task?"

Sisyphus said: "You can form a team and cooperate to complete the task. This is allowed..."

"However, the higher you go to the top of the mountain, the greater the proportion of consumption. The last step requires 100% of your strength...it will be the same no matter who comes, and it will be the same no matter how many people work together."

"Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Yan Nu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just a waste of energy. As long as we can cooperate."

"You feed me rocks, and I'll push them up for you!"

"Eating stones?" Sisyphus asked in surprise: "Is this the special ability of you Seris people?"

"Forget it, I'll do it myself." Yan Nu disliked Sisyphus's feeding too slowly, so he just held it up with one hand, picked up the gravel and stuffed it into his mouth.

Then he held the boulder ball with one hand and pushed it to the top of the mountain.

He was very fast, swallowing the stone in one piece, and at the same time, he was running as fast as pushing a wheel, and he was running up the mountain!

Sisyphus was shocked, how could he push so fast! Can eating stones restore strength?

"Incredible ability. How much strength can the gravel restore for you?"

Yan Nu pushed wildly and said with a smile: "All of them!"

"All?" Sisyphus looked at this thin girl in shock, pushing the ball with one arm.

Let’s not talk about strange powers. Orientals may have cultivated some kind of power.

But eating a stone instantly restores all strength, which violates too many laws.

This is obviously just the most common gravel in the abyss.

"boom!"

Yan Nu paused for a moment at the last step, and then pushed hard after he was full.

The boulder rolled to the platform on the top of the mountain and finally stabilized.

Seeing this, Sisyphus was moved to tears, and he heard the sound of the mission accomplished.

"I am free……"

However, Yan Nu collapsed, and you rolled and fell from the edge of the top platform, without any strength at all.

Sisyphus could leave the abyss if he wanted to leave at this moment, but he did not consider this and quickly supported Yan Slave and pulled him onto the platform.

But Yan Nu was like mud, his whole body was limp.

Even though his eyes were open, he looked like he was drunk or passed out.

Not to mention eating, he couldn't even speak or even blink! Completely exhausted all energy.

"I helped you eat...but you don't even have the strength to swallow. Can you still eat this stone?"

Sisyphus wanted to help, but he was worried that Yan Slave had no strength at all and would not be able to use his 'stone-eating ability'.

"It's okay, just put it in my mouth." Yan Nu kept a slight smile on his face, his eyes widened and motionless, which was very strange.

But conscious communication between dead souls does not require strength.

Sisyphus did as he was told, awkwardly opened Yannu's mouth, grabbed a small stone and threw it in.

Not to mention, it passed through the throat and disappeared as soon as it entered the esophagus.

"Is this divinity...are you a god?" Sisyphus finally realized that this was an absolute characteristic.

But apparently a small piece was not enough, just when he was about to continue feeding.

Suddenly, there was a roar, and a huge shadow enveloped the place.

He looked up and saw that a giant five hundred feet tall had jumped here. His head was one head higher than the mountain. He had one eye and was naked all over.

"Human, I'm here again... huh? Are you done?" The Cyclops drooled, as if he was here to eat.

When he caught a glimpse of the stone ball on the top of the mountain, One Eye showed a shocked expression.

When Sisyphus saw him, his eyes became anxious. He knew that this giant liked to eat people and wandered in the abyss every day, looking for human souls everywhere.

He has been eaten for five hundred years... once a day.

But his mission determines that as long as he fails the mission, he will start over, and even if he dies, he will be resurrected. Or maybe he doesn't fulfill his mission and goes elsewhere. In short, he and the boulder ball will appear at the bottom of the mountain as long as the time comes.

So this Cyclops came here specifically to grab some food.

The day is about to pass. If you eat Sisyphus at this time, he will be resurrected soon, ensuring that you will still have something to eat next time.

But obviously, there were special circumstances this time, and the boulder ball stopped at the top of the mountain!

"Wait a minute! Giant, let me take her first..." Sisyphus wanted to buy some time and help his benefactor eat and recover first.

But the Cyclops was shocked and reached out to grab it.

"You actually completed the Abyss Trial, how is it possible? Come with me!" He grabbed Sisyphus in his hand.

"Don't worry, I won't leave. Don't you just want to know how I complete the task?"

Before Sisyphus finished speaking, he saw the Cyclops pick up the Yan slave again with his other hand and swallowed it in one gulp.

"The new human soul, I will eat you today."

The Cyclops's hands were too fast and he ate the Yan slave directly!

"No!" Sisyphus roared and gritted his teeth: "What did you do! It was the task she helped me complete!"

The Cyclops laughed and said, "How is this possible for such a weak mortal?"

"O Sisyphus, who deceived Hades and played with Death, I know you are full of lies."

"Don't try to fool me. I'm so smart that I won't be deceived by you."

Sisyphus rolled his eyes speechlessly, these giants were really stupid.

"I am already free. If I want to leave, the abyss will send me directly out. Can you stop me!"

The Cyclops was stunned: "Yes."

Then he said angrily: "You...you are not allowed to leave! Tell me how to complete the task!"

Sisyphus smiled bitterly, the tasks were all different, telling him was useless.

He could only yell: "Okay, if I don't leave, spit her out quickly! I'll tell you when she spits her out!"

"Humph, you liar, you will definitely not fulfill your promise. I don't believe you." The Cyclops showed a wise look.

Sisyphus said angrily: "You don't believe me, why are you asking me?"

"Because I also want to be free! I must know how to get out! Tell me quickly! How did you complete the task!" the Cyclops asked.

"I... wise giant, please stop torturing me." Sisyphus said in disgust.

The Cyclops said in shock: "Torture? Yes! I will take you to see the great Ouranos, and we will definitely pry your mouth open! Escape from here!"

As he spoke, he held Sisyphus in his hands and ran away.

Sisyphus could not resist, and looked sadly at the giant's belly, thinking that Yannu might have been digested.

He had been trapped in the abyss for five hundred years. This woman saved him and was his benefactor, but she was eaten by the giant without even having time to ask her name...

Not long after, the Cyclops took Sisyphus to a sea of ​​magma and fire, and an area filled with sulfuric acid rain.

A pale giant, soaked in magma, like taking a bath in a hot spring.

His eyes were dull, staring boredly at a large, squeaking and rotating iron wheel opposite.

There was also a centaur restrained on the wheel. The centaur was wailing in pain. As the big iron wheel turned, it would sweep through the magma from time to time.

"Great Ouranos! I found a way out!" the Cyclops ran over and shouted.

Upon hearing this, Ouranos stood up suddenly and set off a huge wave.

He was much taller than the Cyclops, and he held it in his hand: "Say! Speak quickly!"

The Cyclops was shocked: "I...I don't know yet..."

Ouranos was furious and pushed him to the ground with a blaster, stirring the clouds and surging: "Say it or not! Say it!"

"I do not know!"

"Dong dong dong!"

"You dare to lie to me? Say it quickly!"

The beating was so violent that Sisyphus was thrown aside.

"..." Sisyphus sighed upon seeing this.

He was thinking about whether he should leave the abyss. He could leave at any time, but on the one hand, he was still thinking about Yan Nu and didn't want to leave just like that.

On the other hand, although he is free, he still appears in the underworld when he leaves the abyss.

He offended the God of Death and Hades, and was imprisoned here to be tortured. They could imprison him once, but they could imprison him twice.

After thinking for a while, he shouted loudly: "Wise Titan, listen to me!"

He shouted several times, but no one paid any attention to him.

Ouranos was furious, and the sound of the blow was too loud. The wind and clouds roared, covering up his shouts.

Instead, it attracted other Titans from a distance, and for a while there were many giants here.

"What happened?" Oceanus, the god of the ocean, asked.

Uranus then stopped: "He knows the way to freedom."

"What! Say it quickly!" Oceanus grabbed the Cyclops with countless streams of water entangled in his hands.

The huge wave reached Sisyphus, who quickly exclaimed: "The way to freedom is in the Cyclops's belly, let him spit it out!"

Everyone heard it clearly this time, and for a while, the eyes of many Titans were focused on the Cyclops's belly.

"Spit it out!"

"Hit him!"

"Spit! I want to be free!"

A group of Titans bombarded Cyclops's stomach, causing him to vomit blood like crazy.

"You're just going to let him vomit it out? Stop it and let him vomit it up!" Sisyphus shouted. If Yan Slave hadn't died, wouldn't he have been beaten to death?

Rumor has it that the Titans are so stupid that they can't even think of a single brain...

The 'one' refers to Prometheus, the prophet-god on whom all the wisdom of the Titans converged.

Every time Prometheus thinks about it, all the Titans go crazy, and he lives up to his reputation.

Now that the Titans have been locked in the abyss for too long, they are numb and even more stupid.

"Great Prometheus, if you can foresee this, please stop thinking, the Titans are going crazy!"

Sisyphus shouted, but no one paid attention to him.

The Titans bombarded the Cyclops's stomach, and the latter was beaten and vomited out all kinds of things, except for the dead souls.

Just when Sisyphus believed that Yan Slave had been completely digested, an unparalleled domineering force suddenly emitted from the Cyclops' body.

To be feared and not to attack.

The Titans were all shocked by this domineering force and stepped aside, looking at the Cyclops in shock.

I saw the Cyclops, swaying and slowly standing up.

What follows is a unique artistic conception, with the Cyclops rising domineeringly, like a rising sun.

"What! Why is this little thing suddenly so scary!"

"Has his godhood improved?"

The Titans couldn't figure it out, they only knew that the Cyclops's domineering power was extremely terrifying.

Moreover, the coverage area was huge, covering the entire abyss in an instant. Typhon, the ancestor of all monsters in the distance, and even the countless monsters under his command were all shocked and looked here.

Even the giant holding the sky staggered and looked up in shock.

Sisyphus couldn't figure out what was going on. The Cyclops was just a low-level Titan. How could he become stronger after being beaten?

"So... so scary... who is it..." The Cyclops stood up domineeringly, but his face was horrified, as if he himself was also shocked by the domineering power.

This made everyone stunned. His own momentum even scared him?

"Uhhhh! It hurts! It hurts so much!" The Cyclops suddenly roared, in agony, as if he had suffered some kind of terrible attack.

"Bang!"

A gunshot, going forward in an unstoppable manner, tore open his belly and shot out with a bang!

The Titans quickly moved out of the way, only to see this shot tearing apart a mountain and opening a canyon.

Finally, it was frozen in the horizon and could not dissipate for a long time.

A mortal girl flowed out of the blood. She lay limp in the pool of blood and stopped beside a rock along the river, half leaning against it, looking domineering.

"Serysian! You are not dead!" Sisyphus shouted with joy, recognizing that this was the Flame Slave, with only a little corrosion on his body and almost no damage.

The other Titans came back to their senses and stared at Yan Slave.

"Is this the treasure of freedom?"

“Really unique!”

"Mortal souls resist the corrosion of divine power and possess such terrifying aura."

The Titans said, Uranus was the first to take action, clawing at Yan Slave.

Yan Nu remained motionless, only to see the spear intention that had been shot out suddenly turn around from the horizon.

Tear it apart and cut off Uranus's arm, causing him to wail in great pain.

Then the gun intent continued unabated, and it blasted towards him, sinking directly into Yan Slave's body.

The next moment, Yan Nu stood up and became full of momentum! Perfect condition!

Sisyphus was pleasantly surprised, he didn't expect this to be possible.

But then, Yan Nu rushed to the nearby lava lake with a look of disgust on his face, jumped directly in, and scrubbed frantically.

"What the hell is going on in this guy's belly!"

Yan Nu didn't want to rely on the things inside to recover. He felt sick inside, knowing that it was the giant's belly and it ate himself again. He must have eaten people often in the past.

Come out now and quickly take a lava bath.

…

p.s: Sorry. There was a power outage yesterday, and I didn't ask for leave because I went to the hotel to stay up late coding, and I planned to update it in the morning. But my head hurt so much that I couldn't bear it until dawn and fell asleep. I came back at noon and continued coding, and I had just written 7,000 words.
