2427 The 18th Level of the Abyss!
Lin Yuan only set aside two months to take over the abyssal world. The two Samsara Realm Dictators and ten Turning Wheel Realm Dictators were sufficient to ensure the Iron Hammer Federation’s safety for two months.

After venturing into and taking control of two dimensional worlds, Lin Yuan had an impressive understanding of the dimensional worlds.

The dimensional worlds were similar to the main world in that they also had factions.

Each Dictator in the marsh world resembled a small federation from the main world, lacking a Class 5 Creation Master. The Turning Wheel Realm Dictators represented federations with a single Class 5 Creation Master, whereas the Samsara Realm Dictators represented larger federations with multiple Class 5 or Class 6 Creation Masters.

The internal affairs of the dimensional worlds were just as messy as those of the main world.

Things were slightly better in the water world as only two factions existed.

However, despite the appearance of power-sharing between the two factions in the water world, the hidden conflicts within this world were even more intense than in the marsh world.

Within the factions of the marsh world, where Samsara Realm Dictators resided, there were constant battles among them. However, it was unheard of for two Samsara Realm Dictators to kill one another.

They were all cautious and feared initiating an attack, as it would make them vulnerable to other Samsara Realm Dictators seeking retaliation.

This caution extended even to Samsara Realm Dictators with names like Eternal Source, who exercised extra care before taking any action.

Despite Evil Source not suffering any physical injuries or loss of strength when she lost the bet, she still ended up losing her power and authority.

Although Grace Sacred Hall and Mermaid Forbidden Sea appeared peaceful in the water world, the two rulers of Grace Sacred Hall were secretly assassinated by the four royal attendants.

The internal strife and plotting within each faction prevented the top combat powers from uniting.

Ink Ocean, Frozen Ocean, Ancient Ocean, and Extreme Ocean were constantly trying to undermine one another.

Lin Yuan later learned that Ink Ocean and Frozen Ocean were unaware that the other had reached pinnacle Samsara Realm.

The two of them were the strongest of the royal attendants and planned to seize power once their power had increased.

However, they ended up being whipped by Vine Source because of Extreme Ocean and Vine Source’s scheme. As such, the two of them ended up joining forces. This was when they found out about the other’s breakthrough in power.

After gaining a deep understanding of the workings of the dimensional worlds, Lin Yuan now knew that with more factions in a dimensional world, the factions would act as deterrents for each other and lead to more peace among the top factions. Once the top combatants from the dimensional world colluded, that dimensional world’s internal affairs were sure to turn choppy.

The lifeforms from the subterranean dimensional rift fed on minerals and mineral vein hearts. However, mineral veins and their hearts could not be shifted.

As such, the factions in the subterranean dimensional world had to be organized in a way that every faction controlled a certain geographical location. Each of them tapped into and utilized the minerals hidden in the area under their control.

Minerals were resources that could increase power but were also limited. After being studied by Scholars, it was found that minerals were produced naturally more quickly in the subterranean world than in the main world, but it still took tens of thousands of years.

The top factions from the subterranean world definitely fought fiercely with each other over control of the mineral veins and territory. Hence, it was unlikely that they would collude with each other.

The Radiance Federation was currently building mirror cities in the abyssal world, and the members of royalty were in the process of scouting out the abyssal world.

Lin Yuan had learned from the Moon Empress that the abyssal world was split into levels. There were a total of 18 levels. The stronger the dimensional lifeform, the higher the level they were assigned.

The Moon Empress had previously captured Shadow in order to learn more about the system in the abyssal world.

The Radiance Federation had captured many dimensional lifeforms in recent years and learned from those that possessed intelligence that the Radiance Federation was located at the fourth level, exactly at the entry and exit position.
20 of the 32 mirror cities were built on the fourth level, while the other 12 were built on the third level so they could harvest the abyssal world’s resources from two separate locations.

The Radiance Federation’s major cities differed in terms of financial and combat abilities. It was inevitable that they would become rivals when establishing their mirror cities in the abyssal world.

The Radiance Federation did not want the major cities to fight with each other, so they separated them based on their individual powers. The 12 more powerful cities were placed on the fourth level, while the weaker cities were assigned to the third level.

These were all top secrets of the Radiance Federation. Normally, the Moon Empress would never reveal them to Lin Yuan unless he asked.

But now that she understood his capabilities and power, she shared such information with him even without him asking.

Lin Yuan found the situation in the abyssal world troublesome. The world had numerous levels, requiring him to find the entrances to access each level. Though he had enough manpower to locate these entrances in a vast space, it would consume considerable time. The Samsara Realm Dictators alone couldn’t complete this task.

An idea struck Lin Yuan. He could utilize Klein Hub to transform the Spirit Lock spatial zone into a tunnel connecting the marsh and abyssal worlds. This would enable the dimensional lifeforms from the marsh world to explore each level of the abyssal world.

Furthermore, Lin Yuan could follow the example of the Radiance Federation and capture intelligent abyss demons. He could acquire the entrance locations and expedite the process by interrogating them.

One major challenge in the abyssal world was the abundance of fire and flames, which posed a strong counter to Lin Yuan’s merman body.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan could easily portray himself convincingly as a Dictator in the marsh and water worlds.

But if his merman form was discovered in the abyssal world, the aura of water-elemental energy would definitely cause him to be suspected by the natives from the abyssal world.

Hence, Lin Yuan could not take the front seat in the abyssal world.

There were many more types of dimensional lifeforms in the marsh world than there were in the water world.

The rankings among dark-type abyss demons from the abyssal world were determined by their strength. The stronger they were, the more respected they would be.

They would immediately be regarded as an elite if they also had large bodies. It was highly likely that they would be able to catch the attention of and gain a partner in one of the Succubi.

When the main world handled abyss dimensional rifts that were Class 3 and above, they sometimes caught glimpses of Succubi.

The Succubi were a type of dimensional lifeform with a human form and strange lamb horns growing from their heads. The larger and more curved their horns were, the stronger their powers of seduction would be.
