The Life Seed had finally established its roots in the Plane Seed. The entire branch instantly turned emerald green in color. A dense source of life came from the Life Seed and charged into Tang Wulin’s body. It eased his extremely bloated meridian vessels.

Without a doubt, this nourishment was greatly beneficial to Tang Wulin’s bodily qualities. It could also stabilize his body from the forced breakthroughs he had just achieved. It expanded his small lake and strengthened his body.

Without exaggeration, the improvement in Tang Wulin’s bodily qualities that happened in this short period of time was equivalent to what he would achieve after a year of cultivation.

This was definitely great news for him. There was definitely nothing better than this to face the Golden Dragon King’s seals in the future.

At the current level of his body’s quality, even the slightest improvement was difficult to achieve let alone a large scale enhancement.

He would never have imagined that he would meet with a fortune as good as he did today.

Ant Emperor finally understood how the six-clawed Demon Emperor met its end. After its Plane Seed was firmly captured, the Plane Seed’s struggle started weakening. The origin power that belonged to its plane was being wildly devoured by the Life Seed.

Tang Wulin could feel that some strange change was happening inside the Life Seed. The branch was growing in girth. The more wonderful thing was that the dense life force was compressing inwardly and to a great extent at that. It was as if it was storing something.

With the addition of the Life Seed, most of the energy was brought away by it. However as he utilized his Mysterious Heaven Method to condition his own body, Tang Wulin could also use this opportunity to feel the nourishment of the life force.

Opportunities to improve as greatly as this would not come often in anyone’s lifetime! Also, he could faintly feel his understanding of life and devouring deepen again.

Back then when he was still on Demon Island he had experienced both types of energies. Currently, the life force that the Life Seed gave him was denser and purer than the life force on Demon Island. This was a plane’s energy at that! Although he could not utilize it directly, he was still Nature’s Child. As such the nourishment of these life forces on him would not be small. Moreover, the opportunity to devour this time was brought by Tang Wulin to begin with.

Cao Dezhi recalled his Heartless Sword. Currently, he felt completely relieved. He did not have the time to look at the situation inside the passages. However since only two abyssal kings had come up until now, it meant that this passage was not easy to pass. It was unprecedented to be able to destroy two abyssal plane levels. It would be an extreme blow to the abyssal plane.

Destroy the enemy and strengthen oneself. If they could drag this battle longer and destroy another abyssal king, then they would not have to be worried about the abyssal plane. With this, not only would Douluo Continent’s Life Seed be able to be nurtured, but Tang Wulin could also grow at an increased pace. This was killing many birds with one stone.

Just when this Blood One was satisfied, the Bright Mirror Douluo’s entire Domain suddenly shook violently.

A slightly anxious voice reached them. “Old Cao, this is bad. Come and help, quick. The abyssal passage is about to break open.”

Cao Dezhi was shocked. When he entered the abyss’s depth just now, in truth, he had already seen that the abyss’s seal was not opened completely. The abyssal creatures must have used some sort of trick to create a small opening. There was no way that the seal set down by great experts would be broken so easily.

Although this was what he thought, he still charged out of the Domain at the very moment he heard it. Tang Wulin had already controlled the devouring process, so he no longer needed him.

Inside the abyssal passage currently, a series of deafening and shattering noises sounded. Terrifying energy shockwaves surged outside. The abyssal creatures that had charged out before this were all blown to bits. They had turned into abyssal energy and returned to the abyss.

In the depths of the abyss, the vortex that had formed sunk downward. Huge cracks started appearing on the stable and tough seals. Extremely dense abyssal energy started spilling out of those cracks.

“What’s this?” The Heartless Douluo felt that something was off at the very first moment. His expression was tainted by fear.

Zhang Huanyun had a dark expression on his face, “I’m afraid that we’ll have a bit more of trouble. Did you succeed just now?”

“Mm, it was a success. The six-clawed Demon Emperor is done for. I reckon the abyssal level it was on has also collapsed. This is bad, the abyssal kings must’ve felt that something wasn’t right. Could it be that they want to fight to the death right now? Regardless of the price they had to pay?” In Cao Dezhi’s judgment, once an abyssal king dies and results in the collapse of some abyssal plane level, the best course of action for the abyssal plane would be to break away from the abyssal passage and severe the connection with the world of Douluo.

If this happened, the abyssal plane’s problem that had troubled the Douluo Continent for more than six thousand years would naturally be easily overcome like cutting through butter with a hot knife.

However, he had not expected that the abyssal plane will choose to forcibly break open the seal with some unknown method after the deaths of a few kings. This clearly was their way of expressing their intention to fight with humans to death!

The six-clawed Demon Emperor and Ant Emperor, they were only two abyssal kings. If more abyssal kings made it through, they would be in great trouble.

“Huanyun, we can’t let them completely break open the seal. Let’s work together to fortify it. Let’s activate the Blood Gods Great Array,” Cao Dezhi said decisively.

However, Zhang Huanyun hesitated. “But if we did that, you won’t be able to continue attacking them. You’ll also have to involve your personnel from the Blood God Battalion. Besides, the cracks are already there, there’ll still be an endless stream of abyssal creatures charging out of them. I don’t think our seal can hold them up! There’s bound to be more abyssal kings appearing after this!”

The Heartless Douluo said decisively, “We must hold them off no matter what. The abyssal passage’s seal can’t be broken at any cost. If it breaks and dozens of abyssal kings charge out of it at the same time, that’ll be the true disaster. We must activate the Blood Gods Great Array. You’ll support Wulin to plug the cracks. We’ll fortify the seal. We must hold them off no matter the cost. Right now, we can only put our faith in the young ones.”

When he said this Cao Dezhi’s body swayed and he rose into midair. He shouted at Blood God Battalion’s Blood Gods, “All personnel of Blood God Battalion, make preparations for the Blood Gods Array! Wulin’s position will be taken up by the former Blood Nine.”

He raised his right arm as he said this. A classic-looking sword appeared in his hands. However, there was only one this time.

His sword was about four feet and three inches long. Its blade was like water as it shone with faint, ice cold ripples. Circles of soul rings rose from under his body. Six black and three red. Nine soul rings circled around him.

As the first person of Tang Sect, Tang Sect’s sect master, and Douluo Halls hall master, when this Limit Douluo allowed his own aura to burst forth, even the skies darkened. It was as if countless sharp air flows were falling from the skies.

Cao Dezhi raised his hand and pointed his Heartless Sword to the skies at an angle. The skies immediately lit up. A ray of light descended from the skies. As the light fell, it turned into a huge golden sword which dropped down. It instantly stabbed into the depths of the abyss with unparalleled sharpness.

The dense abyssal energies which had just surged out of the cracks immediately shrunk under the shine of this huge golden sword. It emptied the inside of the passage.

Zhang Huanyun dared not dally. He knew that Cao Dezhi was right. If they did not fortify the seal right now then seal would truly be broken and that would be a huge disaster.

He swung both arms and nine beams of golden light flew toward different parts of the wall near the passage’s exit.

When the nine beams of light fell on the wall steadily and revealed their actual bodies, there were nine impressive-looking, shield-shaped badges. Every badge had a picture on it representing the first master of the respective badges.action
