Abyss Summoner

Abyss.

Through infinite layers, countless variations, it reflects a collection of all things ugly, evil, and chaotic. As the infinite levels spiral downward, they culminate in extremes of brutality. Traditional knowledge holds that the Bottomless Abyss has 666 layers, although the true number may far exceed this. After all, the Bottomless Abyss is far more terrifying than traditional awareness can encompass.

This is an endless, suffocatingly terrifying place.

This is a place with an extremely harsh environment, where life is extremely dangerous.

This is a place devoid of morality and ethics, where killing never ceases.

This is an evil land where there is no friendship, familial love, or romantic love, only betrayal, slaughter, and destruction.

The Bottomless Abyss is one of the most terrifying lower planes, a home for demons devoted to death and destruction, and one of the final resting places for chaotic evil souls.

......

It’s hard to describe Chen Feng’s mood now; the time needs to be traced back to a month ago when, after summoning the Mind-Reading Demon, Order successfully obtained a batch of experimental subjects from the Abyss.

Demons.

Chen Feng’s goal was to train these demons to become controllable warriors or battle pets.

Of course, these tasks were in cooperation with the biochemistry department and other sections, so Chen Feng did not have to be involved in everything personally. As a result, a long-dormant thought began to germinate in his mind.

That was dimensional exploration.

This is a very mysterious, thrilling, and dangerous activity.

In each dimension, the lowest level of exploration requires the Golden Tier, and the mortality rate at this level is as high as 70%. Apart from some barren dimensions, like those where Kobolds and goblins are the mainstream creatures, the Golden Tier might play a significant role, but in a place like the Abyss, even a five-man Golden team could be annihilated in seconds.

Golden Tier participants in dimensional exploration are like a group of guys daring to climb snow mountains only in down jackets. Rather than courage, it’s sheer stupidity!

With Chen Feng’s caution, he certainly wouldn’t rashly go on a dimensional exploration at the Golden Tier. It could be described as a gamble without a chance of winning, where even the slightest danger might plunge oneself into an irreversible situation.

But now it’s different. Chen Feng has become a legendary powerhouse, and more importantly, some legendary-tier Summoned Beasts hover around him.

Saruman, Inferior Demon, Fallen Angel, Mind-Reading Demon, and a Legendary Li Long that goes into a frenzy.

A five-man Golden team might still lack some finesse, but a legendary team already qualifies for exploration, even as Hunters.

Order’s work has been delegated. This is the advantage of being a leader; a force composed of millions operates even without him, often leaving Chen Feng as a spiritual leader.

Chen Feng has already set the exploration target.

And the destination is his unique trump card, the Bottomless Abyss!

Chen Feng has ascended to become a legendary powerhouse. While traversing other dimensions, he will also face the obstacle of the Dimension Wall. The Abyss, however, is different. It’s a world he has always been able to communicate with and has relied upon since the apocalypse.

The Insect Realm, under heavy losses, won’t restore its Primordial Energy for at least a decade, rendering that land negligible. Even more distant lands are still in an exploratory stage, prompting Chen Feng to order the formation of new exploration teams to seek traces of humanity in farther regions.

In this vast world, apart from Huaxia people, there are many other nations. The rise of heroes out of current events means Order can’t be the only surviving metropolis on this land. Therefore, Chen Feng has never given up on exploring the outside world.

But it’s undeniable that Order is already formidable within a thousand miles around now. Any monsters or forces opposed to it have become nourishment, supporting Order’s daily growth. Without the invasion of Dimensional Powerhouses, Order will have a few years of peaceful time.

All preparations are complete, just waiting for the east wind.

In this context, Chen Feng spent more than half a month preparing some living supplies, and just a few minutes ago, he completed this exploration action.

Chen Feng has quite a few options; overall, there are four regions: Bone Plain, Flora Fortress, Legendary Flame Demon Fortress, and the Dark Realm where Elwin resides.

Bone Plain is out of the question. After Naraku’s avatar was destroyed, it threatened to go there personally for revenge. Even though Saruman is now legendary-tier, facing the wrath of an Evil God is still daunting for Chen Feng. Unless he has a death wish, he wouldn’t venture there for a challenge.

As for Flora and the Legendary Flame Demon’s Demon Fortress, Chen Feng thought about it and decided to give up. After all, demon lands mean desolation, and besides sheer adventuring, the possibility of gaining opportunities is almost zero.

Upon contemplation, perhaps only Elwin’s Dark Realm remains as an option.

After making the choice, Chen Feng officially started the dimensional exploration. After several minutes of a dream-like, illusory experience, he finally arrived in this familiar yet foreign dimension.

Bottomless Abyss, Dark Realm.

In the howling gale, a figure cloaked from head to toe appeared here; Chen Feng looked around at the bizarre surroundings, his eyes filled with curiosity and caution.

Dark Realm.

Deformed, evil creatures reside here to avoid the sunlight. The Dark Realm is filled with cities and nations of the Diluo Dwarves, Dark Elves, Gray Dwarves, and Heart Stealers. It is also the homeland of some rarer species, such as Bottom-dwelling Demon Fish, Eye Demons, and Koutao Fishmen, as well as some intelligent humanoid slaves from the surface world.

Capital: None

Population: Unknown

Races: Bottom-dwelling Demon Fish, Dormant Pseudo-monsters, Dark Elves, Gray Dwarves, Mind flayers, Marsh Bearmen, Deep Gnomes

Government: City-states, each with different forms of government (dictatorship, matriarchy, monarchy, theocracy, and others)

Religion: Various. Typically with racial temples.

Imports: Armor, food, slaves, timber, weapons.

Exports: Armor, exotic goods, magic, weapons.

Alignment: Neutral, Lawful Evil, Chaotic Evil

These evil species fight or trade among themselves for resources, magic, and power. Alliances they form crumble when conspiracies are revealed or better opportunities come. Gnomes, Deep Gnomes, Dwarves, and other neutral or good races have some enclaves scattered among these hostile city-states, remaining isolated or resisting invasions from their malevolent neighbors.

War, conquest, decline, and collapse form the repetitive cycle of the kingdoms in the Dark Realm. Cities battle each other for wealth, resources, slaves, or generations-old enmity. Stable empires gradually decline, exhausted by numerous ongoing small conflicts or internal disintegration.

Failed empires crumble, sometimes due to internal issues, sometimes due to enemy weapons. Groups of survivors emerge from ruined cities finding suitable environments to start anew, eventually establishing new cities.

For surface adventurers, merely entering the Dark Realm and managing to return to speak of what happened is an achievement worth recording.

The Dark Realm is a desolate world. It operates under two overwhelming rules: survival and annihilation of enemies. Most of the Dark Realm is in eternal darkness, filled with creatures unaccustomed to real light. As compensation, they evolved dark vision or enhanced senses long ago. Glowstones, noctilucent crystals, and phosphorescent mosses, lichens, and fungi dimly illuminate certain areas.

Strange plants are common, and visitors can scarcely identify which are hostile or poisonous without the aid of magic or risky experiments. Since the Dark Realm has no rainfall, fresh water is the most precious resource. Residents must rely on any filtration coming down from the surface. Discoverers of water would store it and protect it with their lives.

Due to the scarcity of reliable resources, each city produces a few specialty goods during peacetime to trade with nearby cities. A typical caravan consists of dozens of heavily armored merchants and soldiers, with two or three dispatched ahead or behind for patrol. Although tunnels are usually very silent, echoes travel far.

This vast plane, populated with countless monsters and races, is but one layer of the Abyss, proving how many terrifying powerhouses the Abyss has nurtured!

The ruler of this land is Flora, known to Chen Feng.

A fallen former elf.

As a plane controller, Flora adheres to her creed: the strong rule, the fittest survive!

Therefore, this plane does not resemble the one ruled by the Jackal-wolfman Duke, where Jackal-wolfmen are the rulers, and other beings on the plane are treated entirely as slaves and food!

Beyond the Dark Elves, there are other racial cities in the Dark Realm; Gray Dwarves or Eye Demons also have the right to establish cities here.

Flora has a malformed understanding of power; in her eyes, if some Dark Elves lack strength and get captured, she won’t intervene.

This means that in certain dark corners of what was originally Flora’s domain, there are even underground transactions involving the sale of Dark Elf slaves.

The ugly dwarves and even Deep Gnomes will buy back some Dark Elves at exorbitant prices; the Abyss knows no mercy, and as slaves who have lost their freedom, these beautiful Dark Elves will endure endless torture and abuse.

This is the Abyss.

This is the Dark Realm.

A world that worships only the fist.

If you have power, you will enjoy pleasures here surpassing even paradise, but if you’re a pathetic creature with little strength, slave traders will set their sights on you, and once captured, what awaits is torture countless times more brutal than Hell.

After all, creatures living here have already been mentally twisted. Besides beautiful females, males are also coveted targets for some monsters!
