It was not as though the strongest individuals in the World of Myriad Races had never attempted to challenge the Lord of Abyss.
Once, there had been a top-tier elven awakener who had mastered the rules of time. Believing that this power gave him the qualifications to stand against the Lord of Abyss, he had issued a challenge.
Yet the Lord of Abyss had merely lifted a single finger and effortlessly changed the very manner in which the rules of time manifested themselves.
As a result, before that top-tier elven awakener had even figured out what had happened, he discovered that his ability to utilize the rules had been completely stripped away from him.
In an instant, he had fallen from being one of the most powerful awakeners in existence to becoming nothing more than an ordinary person.
It was only after this incident that an increasing number of awakeners finally came to understand that the Lord of Abyss and the Abyss itself could not simply be regarded as one and the same.
