#889 - Chapter 889: Gazing into the Abyss
Hearing the woman's words, Wu Wei raised his head.
Looking at the woman's gaunt face and her withered appearance, Wu Wei nodded.
“I…”
“Understood.”
After tidying up the chessboard.
This final game of chess finally began.
Clack clack clack clack!
As the chess pieces continued to fall, Wu Wei's appearance finally changed.
He was no longer the toddler he had been, but now in his adult form.
His black, round pupils also turned into the scarlet, vertical pupils they were now.
Moreover, along with this change.
Was his chess skill.
The fierce, decisive aura and the calm, collected temperament made his chess strategy instantly dominate this final game!
No matter how the thin woman used the white pieces in her hand to change the situation on the board, under the fierce attack of the black pieces, everything eventually turned into nothingness.
Just as Wu Wei had said before, chaos was not something Wu Wei feared.
On the contrary, chaos was his protection, his weapon.
He could always find the so-called “rules” in the chaotic battlefield, and use these rules to defeat his enemies.
The gap between their skills had become obvious.
From this, it could be seen that Wu Wei had long surpassed the woman in front of him.
He was many times stronger than the young self in his past memories.
Similarly, he was much, much stronger than the woman who had taught him when he was young.
The other party could no longer teach him anything.
He was already too strong!
“.....”
However, just as the chess game was about to enter the final checkmate, he hesitated while holding the black piece in his hand.
He knew.
Once he dropped this black piece.
Then everything in front of him would completely turn into an illusion.
The woman in front of him would also completely disappear from the illusion.
Everything, there was no turning back.
But at this moment, seeing Wu Wei still hesitating, the woman's voice sounded again.
“Little Wu Wei.”
“What are you waiting for?”
“Have you forgotten what I said? You, must win.”
“And you, must win!”
“....”
Hearing the woman's words, Wu Wei gritted his teeth tightly.
In the end, he placed the last black piece into the position where it should be.
And seeing Wu Wei do as she said, the woman finally showed a long-lost smile again.
“That's great.”
“Just as I expected.”
“Little Wu Wei, you really are....”
Crack crack crack!
Suddenly, cracks appeared in front of Wu Wei's eyes.
This was a sign of the illusion collapsing!
Wu Wei watched as the woman in front of him, along with the chessboard in front of her, were shattered by these cracks.
And at the end, Wu Wei heard the last words she said.
“Become even stronger.”
The moment the voice ended, the darkness in front of Wu Wei's eyes was directly shattered.
And his will returned to the real world again.
But his heart was filled with hatred.
He hated why his inner demon was so weak?
He hated why his inner demon failed to let him sink forever?
Unlike the inner demons experienced by ordinary people.
Wu Wei was actually in an invincible state when he was experiencing the inner demon stage.
In fact, from the moment he entered the inner demon stage, he knew that his way to break the situation was actually very simple.
As long as he won any game from the other party, he would be able to escape the illusion and return to reality.
But he didn't do this, he just tried to enjoy the illusion in front of him as much as possible, enjoying the false satisfaction, until the last game....
He was never unable to win.
But unwilling to win!
Just as he said, his humanity had begun to dim, and he craved to sink more than anyone else.
But he couldn't do it.
Because...
After recovering, Wu Wei turned his head to look at the Abyss Throne.
“I finally understand what price I paid the moment I sat on the Abyss Throne!”
Wu Wei raised his head and looked at the black and red vortex above the sky.
“You gave me a curse.”
“A curse that allows me to see everything in front of me clearly!”
“From the moment I entered the illusion, I saw the falsehood of that illusion.”
“Because of this, I simply cannot achieve eternal sinking!”
——————————
The moment he finished speaking, a lot of blood flowed from Wu Wei's eyes.
His eyes once again underwent a mutation.
Countless darkness from the abyss condensed and quickly poured into his bleeding eye sockets, and then eroded his eyes.
At the same time, Wu Wei's system interface also began to frantically pour out new information.

【Congratulations, you have ignited the divine fire.】
【You have been promoted to: Demigod!】
【Warning: Your lord skill—War Vision has disappeared!】
【Warning: There is a new vacancy in your lord skills, please draw it in time.】

【Congratulations: You have obtained your demigod skills!】
【You have obtained a new demigod active skill—Abyss Gaze!】
【You have obtained a new demigod passive skill—Eye of Truth!】
——————————————
As the blood in Wu Wei's eye sockets gradually dried up, those so-called dark condensations gradually disappeared.
A pair of new eyes was born from Wu Wei's eye sockets.
Wu Wei slowly opened his eyes....
His original scarlet vertical pupils had disappeared, replaced by a pair of scarlet pupils with a cross shape, like a reticle.
And at the moment when Wu Wei opened his eyes....
Wu Wei finally understood one thing.
That is.
He found that the world in front of him was so real for the first time!
He could see everything "hidden" around him, and perceive everything so-called!
Everything, everything, there was no secret to him anymore.
Mortal bones and turbid fetus can also ascend to the temple.
