Chapter 856 Running in Circles
Polly stared at the grim opening of the abyss above and the dark bottomless hole below. Going up meant certain
death, and going down was equally perilous.
What could he do?
All it could do was remain here, singing its sorrowful song, “Tears Behind Bars’, occasionally venturing into the
abyss to drink from the spiritual springs to sustain itself.
Polly was going back and forth. Unknowingly, it absorbed the aura and transformed it into spiritual energy.
The melancholic melody of “Tears behind bars” grew louder and more impassioned with each rendition.
At the edge of the abyss, high above the pit’s opening, the King of Cities stood, listening intently to the faint singing
emanating from below, “Iron windows, iron doors, iron chains…”
He remembered that Lilly had a parrot, one of the soul collectors that served the Ruler of Hell, responsible for
capturing the souls of birds and beasts in the sky. It seemed that this bird was the one singing.
However, he had no intention of descending into the abyss for a mere bird. Going down the abyss was no easy feat,
even for him, as he was one of the Rulers of Hell. He dared not venture down lightly.
Even if one could survive down there, the inability to return to the surface was a terrifying prospect. Who would
willingly subject themselves to eternal confinement?
Trapped for countless millennia, hunted and corrupted by the malevolence lurking beneath the abyss until
becoming a part of that very anomaly.
A cruel smile spread across the King of Cities’ face.
There’s no escape for Lilly and that damned Pablo.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“With their current level of strength… it’s like looking for death.”
Holding Lilly securely in his arms, Pablo soared through the abyss, desperately searching for a temporary hiding
place. However, they soon realized that the bottom of the abyss was vast and seemingly boundless.
There was no longer the distinct sound of bones crunching beneath Pablo’s feet, causing him
to come to a halt. The absence of bones seemed unlikely in Ghost Abyss, where countless bones had sunk over
millions of years. Everywhere one went, the bones of the departed should be present.
Taking a moment to collect himself, Pablo peered through the dense barrier of fog and caught sight of powdered
remains scattered on the ground. It became clear that the absence of bones was not due to their absence but
rather because they had been mercilessly crushed into pieces.
Amidst the thick bones and ashes, there were a series of footprints, back and forth several times… and they
belonged to Pablo.
Pablo’s lips twitched in disbelief.
He never imagined that a ghost of his size would one day find himself trapped within the Ghost Abyss.
“The Ghost Abyss should never be taken lightly…” Pablo muttered to himself, his gaze shifting to Lilly in his arms.
She remained in that position with her eyes closed, completely immersed in a state of profound contemplation,
reaching a state of selflessness.
Pablo observed her, recognizing the signs of enlightenment.
He was genuinely taken aback. Some individuals spend their entire lives in poverty, their hair turning gray, yet they
never come close to the threshold of enlightenment.
And here she was, only five years old, experiencing a profound revelation.
What triggered her enlightenment?
If Lilly could respond, she would simply say, “Nothing!”
There was no specific cause for her enlightenment; it was a natural and effortless realization, as simple as eating
and drinking.
With the spirit energy coursing through her body, Lilly traversed her meridians with ease, playing along the
pathways. She traced them around the tendons, through the limbs, and then washed over her skin and hair. Finally,
all the spirit energy gathered in her abdomen.
To Lilly, it was a wondrous experience!
The energy flowed into Lilly’s abdomen, and despite not physically consuming anything, she experienced a
remarkable sense of satisfaction akin to eating a hearty meal. She felt as though she had finished a substantial
amount, even though only a small portion of spirit energy had gathered in her abdomen.
What a small portion, who are you fooling?
Feeling dissatisfied with the meager ration, Lilly pushed herself to “eat” even more. She moved the spirit energy
around her body, guiding it into her abdomen. She repeated this process, absorbing new spirit energy, letting it flow
and accumulate in her abdomen again and again.
Unbeknownst to her, her abdomen gradually filled with spirit energy-the essence of her strength. Previously,
without awakening her abdomen, she would easily grow tired during battles. Especially after evading the King of
Cities and enduring various escape attempts, she felt overdrawn and on the verge of collapse.
But now, with her awakened abdomen, everything was different. The spirit energy stored within her abdomen
served as her electric charge. It was like having a reserve of Previously, she could only run a certain distance
without that extra charge, but now, with the

power. energy stored in her abdomen, she could potentially run for hundreds of miles. The extent of her newfound
endurance remained unknown.
Lilly did not understand the reason behind how the energy could be stored in her abdomen. She simply knew that
eating-or rather, absorbing spirit energy-was the key. Immersed in the state of mysterious epiphany, she focused
on replenishing her energy reserves.
Meanwhile, Pablo surveyed the floor covered in ashes, a troubled expression on his face. During his practice, he
would typically sit cross-legged, but now, with no elevated surface or even a raised stone in sight, he stood there
foolishly holding Lilly in his arms.
Realizing that they were trapped within the Ghost Abyss for the time being, he knew he needed to assess the
situation. Thus, he began to look around, searching for any signs or clues that might guide their next course of
action.
At the bottom of the abyss, a peculiar silence replaced the screams and cries that were present in the upper layers.
Instead, faint rustling sounds permeated the air, resembling whispers of unseen entities.
Pablo could not shake the feeling that countless pairs of eyes were fixed upon him and Lilly, observing them while
whispering in hushed tones. However, there was nothing visible in their surroundings except for the swirling aura.
In an attempt to make sense of the situation, Pablo closed his eyes. While he continued to protect Lilly in his
embrace, he let go of all other thoughts and focused on sensing his surroundings.
In that moment of heightened perception, he realized that there were people all around him. They formed a
densely packed crowd, preventing even the wind from passing through. It was no wonder he had not felt the usual
gusts when descending to the bottom of the abyss.
Having grasped the situation, Pablo could not help but break out into a cold sweat, feeling a
