2457 Demon Matrix!
It would likely take Lin Yuan less than three days to travel from the first level of the abyssal world to the entrance of the second level.
Lin Yuan could clearly sense changes in the environment when he neared the entrances of the first and second levels.
Normally, the lower the level, the higher the environmental temperature and the stronger the demons that lived there.
But the temperature around Lin Yuan when he moved from the second to the first level made him rather uncomfortable.
Wen Yu had even been forced to take cover in the Jewelled Cave Golden Toad. She was not the delicate type.
Regular heat and fire elemental energy were useless on Lin Yuan.
He had contracted the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen that had consumed a large amount of willpowers, laws, and worlds.
Lin Yuan had strong resistance to fire attributes. He would not be harmed even when facing attacks from Platinum fire-type feys as long as the attacks were not mixed with earth-type to form lava.
However, Lin Yuan’s body now felt itchy and painful. There were even blisters appearing on his hands.
Lin Yuan could not ascertain what the temperature was, but it had to be at least 500 degrees.
Lin Yuan only managed to hold on and was not forced to hide in the Spirit Lock spatial zone because Eternal Source had used his aura to envelop him.
At that moment, Eternal Source was filled with suspicion. He did not understand why Lin Yuan was afraid of high temperatures. Could it be due to his mermaid bloodline? Eternal Source could not use logic to come up with a reason.
Lin Yuan was now a mermaid thearch.
No matter how hard Eternal Source thought, he would not come to the realization that Lin Yuan was even weaker than a regular Dictator. He was so weak that he would die after being squeezed by Eternal Source.
So far, Lin Yuan had relied on his resistance to fire elements to endure the heat of the abyssal world.
He had not expected such a situation to take place as he moved from the second to first level.
The Moon Empress had not informed him of this in advance.
This meant that the temperature had not been this high when the four members of royalty had been here. Otherwise, they would definitely have made a note of it.
This meant the extreme high temperature he was facing was intermittent and only happened infrequently. He only happened to encounter it by chance.
Alternatively, something abnormal occurred in the first and second levels recently.
Lin Yuan felt that the possibility of the latter was small.
If something abnormal had truly taken place, it would have affected the entire abyssal world rather than just this level.
Hence, it was likely that such an event often took place. It was just that the Radiance Federation’s members of royalty had yet to encounter it.
Lin Yuan sensed the change in Eternal Source’s expression. However, he did not react any differently past having a strange expression hanging off his face.
This meant that he had trained and tamed Eternal Source extremely well.
Lin Yuan had already used the Abundance Treasure Tree to take full control of Eternal Source so he did not care what Eternal Source thought.
Furthermore, the one who he had assigned to accompany him to Mermaid Forbidden Sea was Eternal Source. It was likely that Eternal Source had sensed Green Vine’s might when it used Entire Body Medium.
Eternal Source would only think that fire was Lin Yuan’s weakness and would not suspect that the extent of his power had been entirely made up.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to instruct the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen to fully unleash his resistance to fire elements before sending Celestial Sight to change the temperature of the environment, he heard Eternal Source say softly, “Lord, I can sense that the temperature here is climbing. If you don’t like this environment, I suggest that you leave! The temperature is rising quickly.”
Lin Yuan’s eyes widened, and he looked amused.
Regardless of whether he was a human or a mermaid, Lin Yuan was not sensitive to temperature changes. A change in temperature from 510 degrees to 520 degrees would feel about the same to him.
But it was clear that Eternal Source was very sensitive and could accurately sense the changes in environmental temperature.
If the temperature climbed rapidly in a short span of time, this meant that this phenomenon would not last for too long. This explained why the Radiance Federation’s members of royalty had not encountered such a situation when they were here.
Lin Yuan wanted to find out the reason for the rise in temperature.
Thus, he did not immediately release Celestial Sight and instruct it to change the environment because he was afraid that causing a big change would put a stop to something that was about to happen.
This was because he did not know if whatever was causing this situation was alive or dead.
Although Lin Yuan did not instruct Celestial Sight to change the environment, he summoned out all the Samsara Realm Dictators under him so they could stand guard. He even summoned Vine Source who had been tasked with watching over the marsh world.
Suddenly, he saw the seal between the first and second level breaking from the inside.
A purple and red mass that resembled mud flowed out from the boundary between the first and second level of the abyssal world. The movement of the flow made it seem as though the sea had been compressed and contained within the mass.
There was a large hold in the mass from which the sea was flowing out of.
There was a purple and red flesh-like item pulsing lightly. It was filled with soul aura and vitality so it was hard to tell if it was related to something that was dead.
The aura of this purple and red entity was very similar to that of demons but upon closer inspection, Lin Yuan could tell that the two auras were clearly different.
To make a comparison, the demons’ flesh was cake while the purple and red entity was whipping cream. It was as though it could be turned into any cake as long as it was carefully molded.
Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the purple and red entity. What he saw led him to believe that he had just grasped a big secret of the abyssal world.
True Data stated that this purple and red entity was called the Demon Matrix. It was also mixed with fluids from the Abyss Womb. The information on True Data allowed Lin Yuan to form many reasonable guesses about things he previously did not understand.
Previously, Scholars had all been curious about how demons procreated. Scholars found joy in and it was also their profession to study evolution. They were filled with curiosity about any new entity.
There were countless dimensional lifeforms that had been captured by Scholars and experimented on.
The Scholars found that even after demons of the same type were held in captivity for three to five years, they had no primal urges for procreation.
This was extremely different from other dimensional lifeforms. The insects went into heat every few days, and their bodies would exhibit clear changes each time.
