“Understood! Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of myself.”

Blood One nodded. “Go ahead then. All the best.”

Tang Wulin saluted once again before he turned around and took the lead to leap up into the air. With the battle armor attached to his body and the dragon wings on his back, he glided toward the east direction.

Behind him, the Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi, the Strength God A Ruheng, Ling Wuyue, Ma Shan, Jiang Wuyue, Long Yuxue, and twelve members of the Blood Dragon Unit leaped up simultaneously as they chased after him flying into the distance.

A faint smile emerged on Cao Dezhi’s face soon after he watched their departing figures. “The right opportunity comes to the right person at the right time. Wulin, all the best. We can only assist you as you embark on your journey. How far you’ll go depends on your own effort.”

Zhang Huanyun heaved a sigh. “Hey, I already miss him.”

Cao Dezhi chuckled. “Perhaps, you’re unwilling to part with all the elite members he has taken along with him.”

“Cough, cough!”

Cao Dezhi’s eyes were twinkling with radiance. “The vast world of the Douluo Continent belongs to these young men now. We shall see what sort of radiance he’ll bloom to be.”

Zhang Huanyun frowned. “You don’t look like you’re worried at all. You should know how powerful the enemies that he’ll confront are.”

Cao Dezhi spoke calmly, “Without powerful opponents, how can we sharpen his skills? Moreover, he’s not going to fight alone. Do you really think that Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect which existed for the past twenty thousand years on the continent can be destroyed by two Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunitions?”

Zhang Huanyun’s face brightened as if he had figured out something.

“Let’s go back. I’m going to examine the seal a little closer. I believe that the abyssal plane will behave itself for a period of time after taking such a beating this time. I’m afraid that the so-called Sage King is severely injured. Going by our past experience, it’s even possible that we won’t encounter another Life Tide in a few centuries.”

The abyss suffered severe losses this time. Two Plane Seeds from the hundred and eight layers were completely destroyed that even the foundation was shaken. A large number of abyssal kings died in the battle since most of them opened the passage by force.

Although their lives could be resurrected by condensing the abyssal energy, it would still require a very long time. The impact of the battle to the abyssal passage was not as serious as when the abyssal plane first invaded the Douluo Continent back at the beginning.

After the initial event, the abyssal plane did not appear in the Douluo Continent’s abyssal passage for thousands of years.

The Blood God Army finally took a breather after the battle. They could still enter the abyssal passage through the branched passage. action

Cao Dezhi had agreed to Tang Wulin’s departure for the purpose of grooming him so he could handle the abyssal plane in the future.

Tang Wulin needed more time. Although he was already a Soul Sage now, they, the powerhouses, could see the potential in Tang Wulin to develop further in the future.

Judging by Tang Wulin’s present condition, he could become a Title Douluo, perhaps a Hyper Douluo, or even a Limit Douluo in the future. Once he achieved that, he would pose the biggest threat to the abyssal plane then.

It would be possible for him to resolve the menace of the abyssal plane. There was no need to annihilate the abyss so long as he could make the abyssal creatures break off the passage and frighten them away.

...

A gloomy aura filled the air of the gray-white world and oppressed the abyssal creatures so horrendously that they felt suffocated.

In reality, this situation lasted three full abyssal days. Each layer of the abyssal plane was shaking because their lord of the abyss, the peerless Sage King, was raging with anger.

Surprisingly, he had failed.

The abyss’ invasion of the human world had failed despite having paid a heavy price for it. They did not even manage to kill the man who could possibly threaten the source of the abyss.

When the Ant Emperor’s Plane Seed was completely devoured, such that a layer of the abyssal plane disintegrated, the entire abyssal plane shook as a result. It happened twice in succession! The two Plane Seeds disintegrated completely such that the abyssal kings sensed massive waves of danger.

They finally understood why the Sage King insisted on finding the human at all costs to kill him. The human had threatened the existence of the abyss.

The Sage King was seated high above on an enormous chair. His aura, which was capable of suppressing the entire abyss, shook it violently due to his overbearingness. It was as easy as pie for the true lord of the abyssal plane to annihilate any layer of the abyss.

The hundred and eight layers of the abyss were like the component parts which formed his body. The deepest layer was where his origin source laid.

At present, the abyssal kings were busy gathering their strength quietly. Initially, there were a hundred and seven silhouettes with the exception of the Sage King, yet only eighty-two of them remained now. The abyss paid a heavy price when ten of the abyssal kings sacrificed their energies to support the abyssal Sage King’s final assault to open the spatial passage temporarily.

The abyssal Sage King was truly powerful, but when he invaded another plane by force as the lord of the abyss, he would need to confront the massive pressure produced by the entire plane.

Tang Wulin was capable of absorbing such a vast amount of origin energy through the Blood Gods Great Array during the battle and even managed to prevent overloading his body. It was precisely because the entire Douluo Continent plane was protecting him at the time. Otherwise, how could an insignificant Soul Emperor like him exert such a tremendous effect at the time!

However, the abyss was incapable of defeating Tang Wulin despite the heavy price it paid. It was hard to imagine as even the abyssal Sage King was injured as well.

The abyssal Sage King kept his quiet for the past three abyssal days. No one dared to make any noise. They could not help feeling sad as they mourned the deaths of their kind.

Perhaps, the human world might one day possess the abyss’ destructive energy and the abyss would then be mankind’s stepping stone to the Divine Realm. In any case, the abyss would never agree to the idea, much less accept it.

“That’s god’s strength, the strength of a true god!” The abyssal Sage King sounded calm with hardly any emotions. However, the numerous abyssal kings felt relieved upon hearing those few simple words. At least, the Sage King had passed the period of deep contemplation.

Yet, was it truly god’s strength? How could a god exist in the human world? A god’s status should be independent of all the planes but remain in a state of sublimation, and also a status pursued by every plane.

The abyssal Sage King could have been a god if he wished to. However, as the lord of the abyssal plane, he was bestowed with numerous inherent superior capabilities along with disadvantages as well.

With the abyssal Sage King’s cultivation base, it would not be much of an issue for him to be elevated into a Godking of the abyssal plane’s Divine Realm.

However, he would face a problem that no other living creature would face, and it would be precisely because he was the lord of the abyssal plane.

The so-called lord of the plane was the core of the entire plane. He dominated over everything in the entire plane and, if he wished to, he could even destroy the entire plane and annihilate all the abyssal creatures. He was the master who controlled all the abilities of this world.

Yet, he was fused together with the entire abyssal plane, because he was the lord of the abyssal plane and he was overly powerful. In a sense, he was the abyssal plane and the abyssal plane was him.

In other words, if he wished to become a god, he would need to make the abyssal plane into a whole new Divine Realm. Aside from whether his act would result in a collision with the other existing Divine Realm, the energy needed to elevate a plane into a Divine Realm was unimaginable.

As a result, he could only devour the energy of the other planes and used the life force from the other planes to nourish himself. There was a possibility for such an advancement only if he could ensure that his power as the abyssal Sage King and the lord of the plane exceeded the power of the other Divine Realms!

On the other hand, these abyssal monarchs could not hope to advance to another realm no matter how powerful they were so long as they were stuck below the god-level and the abyss failed to become the Divine Realm. In this way, it was completely different from the Douluo Continent.

There was no true Plane Seed for the Douluo Continent as the entire planar power had transformed into all forms of resources on the Douluo Continent such as martial souls, soul beasts, humans, plants, seas, mountains, and rivers. These were all the constituents of the planar power which formed the Douluo Continent.

Any living creature could utilize these resources to cultivate to the peak of mankind to stand a chance of charging at the Divine Realm. However, it was based on the premise that the Divine Realm still existed.
