At the edge of the Giant Stone City, many houses were severed in halves.

The severed surfaces were incredibly smooth, as if they had been sliced by a sharp blade.

At this moment, the Giant Stone City had descended into chaos, with many people fleeing outward, while many others stood dumbfounded at the edge, staring at the immense crater before them.

Those with better luck could still see the empty houses on the other side from their vantage point.

The unlucky ones found their bodies smoothly severed, and the other half missing.

Of course, for those with the worst luck, they had completely vanished.

...

Herag, after retrieving a snug, practical outfit from his Small Plane and putting it on, looked around blankly.

He was thankful that he had stopped using his Space Ring long ago, instead leaving everything in his Small Plane.

Otherwise, during that energy surge similar to a space torrent, he would have lost all his Space Rings and ended up penniless, without any resources left.

All his clothes had vanished, not even a scrap left behind.

After the energy burst out violently, the turbulent energy rushed toward him, equivalent to a massive bomb exploding right in front of him.

Herag glanced at his intact body, relieved that he had his Inner Domain; otherwise, he would have been torn to shreds by such violent energy.

He looked around, and except for some yellow rock debris from the Giant Stone City's construction, there was nothing left.

These stones were indeed unusual, able to leave even a bit of debris in such an energy surge.

The Witch Array activated by Assas was not a conventional Teleportation Witch Array.

The most crucial aspect of a normal Teleportation Witch Array is stability, ensuring the safety of the person being teleported, with great effort put into this aspect.

If the goal was simply to teleport someone to another place, regardless of their fate, that wouldn't be difficult.

The challenge lies in how to ensure the person's safety throughout the process.

The part of the Witch Array completed by Assas clearly hadn't considered this issue, nor had he intended to.

His original purpose was to ensure everyone in the Giant Stone City perished in the violent energy.

This was the first time Herag truly felt the strength of his Inner Domain, as the violent energy had no impact on his body.

Indeed, as long as it doesn't involve Rule-level Power, his body remains unaffected, not even a trace of harm.

When the Teleportation Witch Array was activated, the violent energy engulfed everything within its range, roughly throwing it here.

Most of the people caught in the Giant Stone City were still asleep, unaware of what happened before being completely obliterated.

After getting dressed, Herag searched around diligently, but still found no survivors.

He thought to himself, managing to survive under such circumstances was purely an accident; not everyone possesses an Inner Domain.

With such persistent, violent energy, even with a Substitute Death Item, one would die immediately after its use.

This was not a momentary event but a continuous assault.

Herag was certain that among the Wizards who perished in this incident, there must have been some stronger than him, as well as those equipped with various protective Witchcraft Artifacts.

However, no one could have predicted such an event in advance.

Herag felt that without at least Level 4 strength, one wouldn't have been able to escape this disaster without warning.

He looked up at the surroundings and sighed.

Herag knew clearly where this was, but precisely because of this, he sighed.

This was the Abyss Plane.

Herag sensed his Bloodline Mark, where the Ancestral Bloodline was extremely active.

He was also tempted to activate the Bloodline Mark to test his current strength.

However, considering this was the Abyss Plane, Herag suppressed this urge.

In the Abyss Plane, one must act with discretion.

Don't think possession of a Bloodline Mark renders one invincible; even Sixth Ring Wizards have perished here.

Herag did not believe activating his Bloodline Mark would grant him Level 6 strength, let alone break through to Level 6.

He immediately tried to contact the Toad, but unsurprisingly, received no response.

Herag did not know where the Toad was, but the inability to respond even to the Messenger's call simply meant it was in an extremely unique place.

He could only wait until the Toad was available and would presumably contact him.

In the Abyss Plane, the Toad could sense him.

Herag looked around, feeling truly lost; all his knowledge of the Abyss Plane came from the Toad.

The Toad had generally mentioned some things before, but there was no map or similar aid.

Moreover, even the Toad didn't know everything, as it hadn't been awake for long.

Herag gazed at the forest ahead, sensing a foreboding presence.

He found the surrounding scenery very strange.

Standing still, Herag did not take steps recklessly, realizing something was amiss.

The issue was that the surrounding scenery kept changing.

One moment there was a forest ahead, but when Herag turned back, it had turned into a desert.

Fortunately, Herag could still sense the position of the stars.

Having meditated on the stars of the Abyss Plane, he could clearly discern their positions, unaffected by the surrounding environment.

Herag closed his eyes and marched straight toward the stone wall ahead, not glancing at the shifting views.

There lay a mountain range, with a colossal peak standing; its side was steep and smooth like a mirror, seemingly impossible to traverse.

Herag activated his Bloodline Mark but didn't fully activate it, merely letting some aura linger around.

This aura wouldn't spread out but could be sensed by any Demon approaching him.

In the Abyss Plane, bloodline is everything.

A trace of Ancestral Bloodline aura released voluntarily by Herag could avert many troubles.

After releasing this wisp of aura, a sudden change occurred.

The peak in front of Herag vanished, transforming into a vast Gobi Desert landscape.

The surroundings also stabilized, no longer shifting.

Herag looked around, unable to pinpoint the source of the hidden mischief.

Perhaps it wasn't a Demon, but something else entirely.

Regardless, it didn't matter anymore; since the entity ceased causing trouble for him, Herag wouldn't trouble himself either, and headed straight for the Gobi Desert.

Herag felt that if he hadn't consciously released the Ancestral Bloodline aura, today would have brought considerable trouble.
