Chapter 2791 Abby's Strength and Territory

Chapter 2791  Abby's Strength and Territory

Hell was far from easy. It was terrible, even for its most powerful inhabitants.

Due to its colossal size, merely knowing someone existed somewhere in Hell meant little. Searching for anything in this realm was akin to seeking a single grain of sand in a vast desert—an almost impossible task.

Two years had passed since Minos and his group had found out about Abby's peculiar situation and Qhava had ordered them to prepare to take over the territories that Abby would lose in the future.

Those were two years of intense movement by groups like Qhava's, but even so, news of battles between Devils didn't flow through Hell's vast territories.

However, news of several groups like Qhava's on the move had spread, increasing the climate of tension and the number of hunters on the move.

Amid all this, Minos and his people had entered Abby's territory and, after months of searching, found something!

...

Right now, Minos and his people were following a black trail generated by an ability in his crown.

After entering Abby's territory and studying it, Minos finally found something he thought was a sign from his wife. Now his group was on her trail, little by little approaching an area covered in darkness, an area outside her territory.

Minos was at the head of the group, the look on his face resolute, as he felt a power that was beginning to give him goosebumps.

"What is she trying?" Ruth asked, as she felt even more concerned about the disturbing sensation she was feeling.

"What does she want by leaving your domain? Wouldn't it be better if she stayed where she was?" the black-haired human asked.

Minos didn't need to answer when Gloria, the first to get her own domain in Hell, told Ruth, "Actually, not exactly. Staying in your domain has its advantages. But the same goes for exploring outside areas... Abby is probably hunting for new domains and expanding her own."

"That's what I believe she's doing," Minos said quietly, imagining it to be part of her strategy to find him.

'She probably thought she'd find me if she made it big... Tsk, she just lost a bit of control and got too big.' Minos laughed bitterly, but he felt they would finally find her today.

They had been looking for signs of her for months and had even ventured into territories neighboring hers. Now he had acquired another 8 Reincarnation Wheels directly and another 3 indirectly through Gloria and Ruth.

Gloria had 2, while Ruth had a Reincarnation Wheel in her domain.

Because of these advances in Hell domains, the group was stronger, with Ruth having reached level 119 and Gloria level 118. As for Minos, he was approaching level 121. He believed he could advance faster by giving more opportunities to his women.

Ruth thought of her harem sister, wondering what Abby had done since entering this dimension. "Is she increasing her domains? That would be impressive, I must say."

"It's hard to estimate. Her territory is too large for me to sense any growth." Minos replied, curious about that, too.

"By the way, why did Abby achieve something like that? I doubt she just beat an inattentive True Celestial as many seem to believe." Ruth continued on the subject as their group advanced, by now surrounded by black clouds, barely able to see more than a few dozen meters away from them.

The terrain they were in now reminded them of the place where they had entered Hell, where the rock beings had tried to attack them before, when they were still in Uzira.

Today they knew those beings were actually Qhava's minions looking for new pupils for her. A trap, so to speak.

Minos answered Ruth's doubt, agreeing with her. "I don't think she beat anyone, either. I think Qhava and other Devils might benefit from keeping the truth to themselves... But we'll only really find out the truth when we talk to her in person. All I can imagine is that this is probably related to that call she felt earlier."

The group stopped talking after his last words, entering little by little to see the black mist decrease in density, while the frightening aura from a few moments ago seemed to hold back against them.

As they advanced, at the same speed as a few moments ago, still following a trail of darkness on the ground, the three and Minos' other subordinates traveling in a group spotted a sea of corpses ahead, which forced them to stop.

"That..." Gloria opened her mouth but couldn't express her thoughts, having never seen such a large number of undead before.

These were not just a large number of undead, but a group made up of beings of different cultivations, from the weakest, newly promoted Supremes, to even the strongest, low-level True Celestials.

When they stopped to observe this evil horde, the undead moving slowly in circles around the area noticed them, each of these creatures turning towards them with apathetic eyes.

"You took your time," a voice that the three natives of the Spiritual World knew well sounded, drawing their attention to the middle of the sea of creatures.

The three saw a black throne carried by a dozen undead, standing in an area facing them, with a beautiful woman with blue hair and a black crown on her head watching them.

Next to this woman were some of the most unusual Hell Guardians Minos had ever seen, while the Devil cultivation in front of them couldn't help but catch his eye.

'Level 120... I don't know whether to be impressed that you've caught up with me or disappointed to see a 12th stage Devil.' Minos plastered a long smile on his face at the sight of his beloved first wife.

"Abby!" He opened his mouth after a moment, seeing a path opening up among the undead for his group to follow to her.

Others might have had difficulty seeing that Minos was not under Qhava's control, but Abby immediately noticed and recognized them as her companions and not one of the enemies seeking her crown.
