Chapter 1008: Chapter 423 ‘Seeking a Spouse’ and ‘Comprehension
The next day.
[862-11-Thunder Pool], No. 7 Abyss City.
A hazy rain descended from the sky, with occasional flashes of lightning streaks between the gloomy clouds.
Under a semi-withered and semi-flourishing tree of an unknown species, Zeus sat silently on a roughly hewn stone bench.

Intermittently, frenzied breaths rose from the corners of this primitive city, only to be forcefully suppressed again.
Only thin wisps of the scent of blood lingered in the air, soon purified by the rain, enabling other demons who barely controlled themselves to maintain their last restraints.
Such a situation had persisted for two days now—of course, this was calculated according to the time of the material world.
For there was no cycle of the sun and the moon in the Thunder Pool, only the perpetually gloomy sky and occasional flashes of thunder.
Silently observing this demon city built around the Abyss Gate, feeling the unrelenting space-time shackles of this interface, Zeus’s mood grew heavier.
Since being expelled from the Space-Time Portal by that despicable demon two days ago, he had intended to leave this city first. However, what the Divine King avatar didn’t expect was that the Horned Demon Commander instantly followed his lord’s order and sealed the city’s entrances and exits with that imprint containing part of the Lord’s essence.
Including Zeus himself, all demons were forbidden to leave, firmly trapped within this primal city. This also comprised the most crucial reason for the sporadic outbreaks of rebellion currently happening in the city.
After all, while the unique environment and Laws of this realm somewhat curbed the chaotic factor in their bloodlines, the Abyss was still profoundly different from the material world.
Usually, pressured by the Lord’s essence, these irascible demons somewhat learned to settle their fights outside the city.
However, with the city now sealed under the Lord’s order, their underlying murderous intents had nowhere to be released, eventually erupting into riots throughout the city.
As time progressed, such riots became more frequent, only to be suppressed each time.
However, in Zeus’s view, this was only a temporary solution. Unless that despicable Horned Demon killed all the demons in this city, it wouldn’t be able to maintain control for long.
“At that time, I can take advantage of the chaos to escape with them. Even if I am marked by the phantom imprint engulfing the city, if everyone is marked, then it’s as if no one is.”
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, unaware of the madness driving the ruler of this Abyss, Zeus no longer wanted to wait.
Staying here, he was massively constrained in everything he wanted to do, fearing being discovered by the Abyss Lord who governed this realm.
But once he secretly took action, using the vast riots among the city’s demons as his cover to strike and wound that Horned Demon, he could naturally use the opportunity to leave the city.
The only slight regret was that, that despicable Horned Demon might indeed end up having a relatively quick death.
Zeus could not personally take action to kill it and extract its soul for thousands of years of torment; instead, he had to let other demons deal the final blow, to handle any potential outrage from the Demon Gods.
But no matter, it was but a mere ant not worth his further thoughts. If there was need for revenge later, he could just attribute it to the Demon Gods of this realm…
Silently contemplating, continuously refining the action plan in his mind, the coldness in Zeus’s eyes deepened.
This journey into the Abyss had been fraught with unexpected turns, but he believed he would not lose.
Just like over the years, although he had suffered losses, all the pain ultimately transformed into strength.
After all, he was the Divine King, and until the Divine King’s fate reached its endpoint, the entire world would open its arms to him.
Just as it had been with Typhon in the past, so it would not be any different with Tartarus now…
Clang—!
“Hmm?”
From the northern side of the Abyss City, where the Abyss Gate originally stood, a huge sound suddenly erupted.
Instinctively looking towards the noise, Zeus saw a black Stele towering over a hundred feet, plummeting like a meteor from the sky before colliding with the ground and shaking the city with its impact.
The distinct aura of the Abyss Lord unabashedly emitted from it, with a strength of Abyss Authority far surpassing any Abyssal Demon Lord he had seen before.
He had no doubt, with such powerful Interface Power backing it, even a mere piglet could become an Abyss Demon Pig surpassing ninety-nine percent of the True Gods in the current world.
Standing up, the Divine King embodiment gazed into the distance.
On that sky-breaking black Stele, he could vaguely make out densely packed Abyss text engraved within.
Although indistinct, hearing the surrounding uproar instantly boil, Zeus knew it was not something that appeared in the Thunder Pool for the first time.
“…To solemnly mark some major decisions on the Stele and cast it into cities harboring the Abyss Gate… The Demon God controlling this layer of the interface really has some brains.”
Using his keen hearing to catch the surrounding sounds, the origin of the Stele was quickly grasped by Zeus. Like today’s events, similar occurrences had happened a few times before, such as when the realm’s Lord was preparing to subjugate some Demon Gods to demonstrate their might.
Through the comings and goings of the Abyss Gate, its orders would spread throughout the Abyss at incredible speed, known to many demons. However, with the current lockdown in space-time, this was temporarily unachievable.
