Saul collected two complete anchor point monsters into his space in one go.
Even at this point he felt little pressure, which couldnât help but make his heart surge with excitement.
After transforming his true body into fate lines, this level of pollution couldnât affect Saulâs soul at all. Based on the powerful stability of the fate lines, Saul instantly changed from prey to hunter.
However, the hunt had just begun when the feeling of falling in the space suddenly stopped.
Saul immediately felt something was wrong, as if hundreds of eyes were watching him.
The four anchor point monsters that had just been trying to escape seemed to have found backing, slowly turning around, baring their teeth and claws, as if they might charge up at any moment.
Saul looked down and was shocked to discover that a dense mass of spatial rifts had appeared beneath his feet, and behind each rift, there seemed to be a gaze staring at him.
These gazes made Saulâs whole body tingle.
If it were single-digit anchor points, Saul could still actively capture them, but if it were hundreds of anchor points, even if Saul could block their pollution, he would be torn to pieces by these powerful monsters!
Saul hesitated no longer and immediately retreated, grabbing Kismetâs recovering body and flying upward.
Because his escape speed was too fast, Saul couldnât always account for the spatial force field, and his bones were fragmenting piece by piece, but the fate lines could always replenish energy in time.
The entire quiet space showed no surface changes, but Saul still followed his mental power to find the entrance where he and Kismet had entered this space.
Then he plunged right in.
At the last moment before leaving this place, Saul looked down below.
Those dense rifts were still not far beneath his feet, as if Saulâs frantic dash had only covered a few meters.
But in reality, Saul had flown very, very far.
Saul wasnât currently worried about the anchor point monsters behind the rifts. If they wanted to emerge, they should have come out when Saul first saw the rifts.
Since the large number of newly appeared anchor points were still hiding behind the rifts, it was very likely that anchor point monsters also couldnât appear freely in this place.
However, what truly caught Saulâs attention during this downward glance wasnât the widespread anchor points, but when Saul looked through this expanse of rifts, he seemed to see a continent covered with cracked earth and ring-shaped mountain ranges.
It looked very much like the world Saul had seen when entering the abyss through the Chaos Realm.
From Saulâs angle, what he saw was all from a birdâs-eye view.
From this angle, Saulâs view wasnât comprehensive, but precisely because of this angle, he realized that he had probably been distracted by Camus before and hadnât noticed that the abyss before him truly had no sense of being alive at all!
It was deathly still, like a corpse!
Saul stopped observing below and resolutely left the Abyssal Eye with Kismet before the other four anchor point monsters could arrive.
After entering the range of the black tide again, the pervasive pollution once more enveloped Saul and Kismet, but Saulâs body showed a change.
A thin layer of arc-shaped transparent skin appeared on his body surface, like skin yet directly covering both him and the Kismet he was holding.
Kismet, who had already recovered, curiously raised his hand to touch the transparent skin wrapping him, and was startled to discover that this thin skin actually emanated fluctuations very similar to anchor points.
He watched Saul concentrate on breaking through the black seawater, leading them both toward the surface. Though curious, he still restrained his curiosity and didnât interfere with Saulâs actions.
Unlike the chaos when they arrived, after mastering the anchor pointsâ special fluctuations, Saul could now hide himself and Kismet under the disguised skin, making the black tide think they were just another new anchor point monster.
The black seawater no longer hindered Saulâs movement and even pushed Saul forward from different directions.
This saved him a lot of effortâhe only needed to concentrate on maintaining the disguise.
About five hours later, Saul grabbed Kismet and burst out of the sea surface, shooting straight into the clouds.
After flying above the cloud layer, Saul immediately threw Kismet onto another cloud bank.
Kismet was in a good mood, poking his head out from the clouds with a grinning smile, âWhen you suddenly grabbed me and ran away just now, I thought your mission had failed this time, but looking at your current state, it should actually have been successful, right?â
âHalf successful, half failed.â Saul didnât have time to explain to Kismet right now.
While he was desperately breaking free from the black tide whirlpoolâs gravitational pull, the three anchor points he had collected in his space had completely fused into one.
Not only that, the fused three anchor points seemed to have reached a certain quality threshold, and Saul surprisingly discovered that their fusion was beginning to emit fluctuations completely different from before.
These fluctuations didnât have powerful polluting forceâthey were more like information waves.
After throwing Kismet aside, Saul tried to analyze these new information waves.
Seeing Saul standing focused in mid-air with vacant eyes, Kismet knew Saul had other important discoveries. So he emerged from the cloud layer, shook off the dust on his body, and flew to sit near Saul.
He released his mental power around Saul in a giant net, enveloping them both and beginning to escort Saul as he had before.
Saul didnât notice Kismetâs actionsâhis expression kept changing as he made new discoveries.
âHow strange, these information fluctuations seem to have auto-correction capabilities.â
Saul couldnât immediately decode the information contained in the harmless fluctuations. The information was like another language.
But Saul had to decode it now, immediately.
Because after leaving the abyss, this information waveâs amplitude was getting smaller and smaller, seeming to be about to disappear without the support of a power source.
But as Saul focused on decoding, he discovered that this information wave was actually adapting to Saulâs interpretation as well, as if it was also learning about Saulâs linguistic cognitive system.
Finally, when the information had become extremely weak, Saul finally understood what the information wave was conveying.
âDonât⊠erupt, stop⊠CamusâŠâ
Saul was stunned. Was this message being transmitted to him?
At this moment, as if having fulfilled a final wish, the fused anchor point monstersâ information fluctuations completely disappeared.
They returned to the chaotic, highly infectious pollution fluctuations from before.
Saul came back to his senses and saw Kismet sitting nearby. âKismet, you know the Abyssal Eye is a dead sixth-rank, right?â
Kismet was keeping watch around them and turned his head upon hearing this. âI know.â
âDo you think a dead sixth-rank could still possess clear consciousness?â
Kismet shrugged with a half-smile: âSince itâs a corpse that wants to resurrect, having a certain degree of consciousness is quite normal, isnât it? Only complete annihilation would make everything return to dust.â
Hearing this, Saul gave a self-deprecating laugh. âYouâre right. I was being stupid.â
Kismet leaned in again, raising his eyebrows, âYou discovered the abyssâs consciousness?â
âI donât know if it was the abyssâs consciousness. But if what just happened was the abyssâs consciousness, then what does Camus count as?â
Being able to control all the anchor point monsters within the entire abyss wasnât something a subordinate or follower could accomplish, right?
Kismet couldnât answer this question. He rolled his eyes, his face showing a flattering yet encouraging smile: âSo what did the abyssâs consciousness say?â
Saul glanced at Kismet.
âNot telling you.â
Kismet: ââŠâ
