Chapter 252: Construction of Baphomet’s Arena!

TL: YYang

On the 10th Layer of the Abyss, amidst the vast chaos, demons were engaged in tasks most unfitting for their nature. They were carving stones and throwing them into a special machine.

Subsequently, a black liquid emerged, quickly distributed and poured into grooves, solidifying into cooling walls!

It had to be said that Redo’s assistance accelerated the construction of the walls significantly!

Such efficiency was beyond what Chen Bai had previously imagined.

Redo’s projection was busy scribbling and sketching in an open space.

As the God of Trade and Contracts, one of the immensely powerful deities, and the leader of the Goblin Merchant Guild, Redo naturally had many subordinates among goblins and gnomes.

However, the first city in the Abyss, also the first Goblin Merchant Guild in the Abyss, served as the best testament to the guild’s expansion into the Abyss.

Undoubtedly, its importance was self-evident, and it was for this reason that Redo personally designed and decided on the location and construction of the Goblin Merchant Guild through his projection.

Yet, in the next moment, a phantom Abyssal Gate slowly appeared atop the massive Abyssal Well far ahead.

Chen Bai emerged from it!

“Dear Chen, have you finished your tasks so quickly?!”

Chen Bai smiled, but the massive Abyssal Gate above the Abyssal Well did not disappear in haste.

“Lord Redo, let me introduce you to a respectable entity within the Abyss!”

Redo was taken aback.

Then, from that enormous Abyssal Gate, a figure slowly emerged.

The figure stood approximately three zhang tall. (1 zhang abt 3 meters)

In comparison to the 1.56-meter-tall Redo, the difference was astonishing.

With muscles knotted all over its body, the enormous head was that of a massive blood-red bull.

Its entire body was scarlet, with a pair of jet-black horns seemingly containing unimaginable power.

Even though its entire strength was suppressed by the Abyssal Will, it still exuded an aura that terrified countless beings!

This was the aura of the Abyss!

Even more, it was the aura of a true god!

Baphomet made no attempt to suppress his aura.

This aura, once released, was felt by every demon on the 10th Layer of the Abyss, causing them to shiver involuntarily in the presence of the figure!

“Beast Lord, Master of the 279th Layer of the Abyss! God of Barbarians: Baphomet!”

Chen Bai stood smiling between Redo and Baphomet.

Baphomet looked down at the small figure beneath him but showed no disdain.

Redo’s existence was not long-lived, but the powers of commerce and contracts were undeveloped authorities. Especially the authority of commerce—if Redo’s true form were here, without the suppression and constraints of the Abyssal Will, Baphomet would not stand a chance!

Only within the 279th Layer of the Abyss, his home turf, did he have a slim chance of victory!

Redo was only momentarily surprised before responding with a smile, bowing slightly to Baphomet:

“Esteemed Lord of Beasts, Redo greets you.”

Baphomet nodded; such a straightforward being had no concept of etiquette, yet he was genuinely surprised by the good relationship Chen Bai had mentioned with Redo!

“True gods from outside the Abyss, as long as you adhere to the rules of the Abyss, the Abyss will not shut you out!” Baphomet stated plainly. This battle-loving, arena-obsessed berserk bullhead was no fool.

Chen Bai smiled slightly: “The establishment of the arena requires Lord Baphomet’s assistance and his infusion of divine power as a symbol of authority!”

The second Abyssal Congress was extremely successful.

To construct the Abyss, after reaching preliminary consensus and forming a beneficial alliance, the division of labor was also allocated.

The construction of the Abyssal safe zone centered around the Abyssal Well, the arena, the Goblin Merchant Guild, the Succubus Lodge, and the Demon Lord’s Mansion as primary structures!

In addition, there were six other crucial elements.

The statues of the six true gods within the Abyss!

Faith was one of the powers of gods and a very important force for guiding authority.

This was a price Chen Bai had to pay to unite the six true gods. However, the power of faith was not something Chen Bai needed immediately, nor was he in a hurry to develop and utilize it.

Baphomet’s arrival was for this purpose.

To build his arena, infuse it with his war divine power, and erect a statue.

The first city of the Abyss could not afford any carelessness!

Baphomet inserted his hand into his bull horns, and then black-red blood spurted out.

As the blood dripped, it transformed into bull-headed demons.

This seemingly miraculous scene did not cause the slightest ripple in Baphomet!

With a thought, Chen Bai directly marked off an immensely large area at one of the central locations of the city:

“Let the Abyssal Arena be built right here!”

Baphomet nodded immediately, then let out a low roar to his transformed bull demons.

The entire 279th Layer of the Abyss was Baphomet’s arena.

These bull demons were exceedingly knowledgeable about how to construct an arena, at most making the edges resemble the stands of a Roman Colosseum!

After everything was arranged, Baphomet said: “Human, only when you can defeat me in the arena will I acknowledge you as the overlord. Until then, this is all for the growth of the Abyss and your promise! Do not forget your promise!”

Chen Bai nodded without any change in expression.

Baphomet was right; anything, at any time, actually had no value. The most important thing was always one thing!

And that was strength!

Only strength was crucial enough to bear this power!

The construction of the Abyss continued, and after planning everything, Chen Bai did not hurry to leave the Abyss. He was about to attempt something of utmost importance!

The composition of strength, through bloodlines, was an important pathway without leveling up.

And the SSS-Rank Demon Bloodline was the main direction he needed to research next!
