This journey into the Abyss, especially his arrival at the lowest level, the "Bottomless Realm," had thoroughly torn open some secrets of the past before Zhao Xu.
The will of the Abyss, the reflection of his own consciousness, had only one demand of him: formally "accept" the identity of Lord of the Abyss.
Zhao Xu had no objection to that.
