Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 861

Lilly used the Palace of the Ruler of Hell as a vacuum cleaner, sucking in the eerie mist wherever they passed.

She diligently pursued the trail left by Ivan, always moving forward…

Pablo carried her in his arms as he was flying.

Now that they had a clear direction, they no longer feared losing their way by walking in circles. As long as they continued in this direction, they would eventually reach their destination.

However, Pablo could never have imagined that he would navigate through the abyss by following Ivan’s trail.

He was greatly surprised to discover that Ivan was just a child. Even though he might possess unique qualities, how could a lost child like him move forward so resolutely in the abyss? The walking corpse Ivan managed to maintain a straight path.

Soon, Pablo came to a realization. Since Ivan’s soul departed from his body, leaving behind an empty vessel devoid of thoughts, he was not misled by the abyss.

“So that’s how it is…” Pablo suddenly understood.

It turned out that as long as one maintained a state of emptiness, free from desires and extraneous thoughts, they would not be disoriented in the abyss.

However, as long as a person’s soul existed, their thoughts would remain intact, and the same applied to ghosts… That’s why it was incredibly challenging to stay safe in the abyss.

Grasping this insight, Pablo noticed that the abyss in front of him seemed less chaotic than before.

Could he sense the direction on his own?

Just then, Lilly’s astonished voice echoed, “Master, is that Ivan up ahead?!”

More than half of the eerie fog in front had been absorbed by the Palace of the King of Hades, revealing a small figure in the distance, resembling a puppet taking measured steps, pausing occasionally but always moving forward…

It was Ivan!

“It’s him,” Pablo picked up the pace.

Finding the physical body was relatively easy, and perhaps they could attempt to summon his soul to see if they could bring him back.

Suddenly, a high-speed black shadow flew overhead!

The mist on the upper layer still remained, and as the Palace of the Ruler of Hell absorbed the mist nearby, the mist from above gradually descended.

Hence, the black shadow appeared hazy, making it difficult to discern its identity.

“Hey…” a cry resounded above them.

Lilly’s hair stood on its end. The cry was incredibly strange, resembling a woman’s wail or a child’s sob.

The voice had an indescribable quality to it, with a peculiar and piercing sound.

“Who is it?” Lilly looked up.

Pablo gently pressed her head. “Don’t look, don’t pay attention!”

Everything within the abyss was peculiar, including the colossal mouth they had encountered upon their descent.

It had appeared like a monster escaping from hell, but it never resurfaced.

Lilly then whispered, “Yes, let’s ignore it…

Let’s first catch Ivan.

Pablo carried Lilly and swiftly followed Ivan.

Once they confirmed that it was Ivan and nothing else, Pablo reached out, securing him in the crook of his arm, and continued flying onward!

Lilly thought to herself…

Yeah, Master caught Ivan!

Ivan remained silent.

Above their heads, the creature continued to follow, alternately crying and laughing, its gaze fixated on them.

Lilly used the Palace of the Ruler of Hell to gather the mist and asked, “Master, should we defeat it?”

Listening to its eerie combination of laughter and cries, Lilly felt as though she was standing amidst a graveyard.

A chill ran down her spine, and an inexplicable sense of restlessness consumed her.

Pablo spoke in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, we’re nearing the end.”

Lilly was about to question how he knew they were approaching the end when she caught sight of a massive dark “curtain” ahead—the cliff of the abyss!

Upon their initial descent, they had been carried away by the fierce winds, landing in an unfamiliar location rather than near the original cliff.

Now, seeing the cliff again, both Lilly and her master felt a surge of joy.

“At least we found the cliff!”

The bottom of the abyss was vast, harboring numerous hidden elements, but the cliff served as a landmark.

Pablo swiftly located a hole on the cliff wall, measuring approximately 6 feet deep and 3 feet wide. He squeezed Lilly and Ivan into it and positioned himself in front of the opening.

“One man can hold the pass against ten thousand enemies.”

With no restrictions on his movements, Pablo once again wielded his long axe, positioning the blade at the entrance, exerting all his strength outward!

There were no longer any restraints behind him, and he was no longer surrounded from all directions.

If that entity were to attack, it would have to go through him!

“Lilly, summon Ivan’s soul, and leave the rest to me!” Pablo’s gaze turned cold as he stared into the void outside.

Lilly nodded, “Okay!”

As soon as the words left her lips, a round object hurtled towards them from above!

“Cluck…”

The entity emitted a bizarre cry, with its eye sockets torn open, revealing half of its eyeball. One side of its lip was missing, exposing its teeth, while red meat paste clung around its mouth…

“It’s the head again?!” Lilly was taken aback.

Pablo swung his long axe downward, and a dark lightning-like light burst forth, splitting the world with tremendous force!

The entity was sent flying after being cleaved, quickly disappearing into the mist while wailing loudly.

Pablo’s face was filled with vigilance as he said, “It’s not the head. Its body is the enormous mist beneath the abyss.”

Those ghost walls and strange fog constituted its body.

“All of its obsessions are concentrated in this head.” Pablo crossed his long axe to completely seal off the hole, ensuring Lilly’s safety.

While Lilly stopped Ivan, who was still walking aimlessly after being placed down, she drew a talisman in the air and interrupted, “So… is this the big boss of the abyss?”

Unexpectedly, Pablo shook his head and replied, “No… it’s not the big boss of the abyss. That’s still far away.”

Lilly understood. This entity wasn’t the big boss. Could it be that she had provoked its anger by stealing its tower, the eerie Fog?

But she did not care whether it was angry or not. She would dare to do it again!

Once she could gather all the eerie fog beneath the abyss, the boss would be no match for her!

Snorting in determination, Lilly stuck a talisman to Ivan’s forehead.

Only now did she have a chance to examine Ivan’s face, however, her little hands trembled in fear…
