"Firepower saturation!" Zhang Huanyun roared.
Boom boom boom...
Countless ninth-grade soul tool fixed-mounted shells, and even quite a few tenth-grade ones, were fired straight at the Abyssal Passage.
The volume of this bombardment even surpassed that of the Tang Sect's underground weapons factory in Mingdu. Even a peak quasi-god expert wouldn't dare to take it head-on.
"It's a bit noisy. I prefer quiet."A deep voice rang out from within the Abyssal Passage. A massive halberd, stretching thousands of meters, rose from the abyss. Its three-foot-long blade emitted a light sweep.
Within a radius of thousands of meters, all the cannon fire shattered and vanished in an instant.
"What the—!"Everyone was stunned. That much firepower... erased with a single move?
What kind of power was this?
"Six thousand years... I've finally succeeded. Excellent. This world, full of life force—I've finally arrived. This is the world I truly desire. Once I devour it, I'll be invincible—above and below the heavens."A figure slowly rose from the Abyss, pale-skinned, strikingly handsome, with deep black eyes void of any whites—eyes that looked like bottomless abysses.
His fingers were long and slender. A black robe shrouded his entire body, with broad shoulders extending outward and a vast black cape trailing behind him like an endless void.
He waved his hand toward the distance. The enormous halberd in the sky gradually shrank and landed in his hand.
As the weapon, Heavenly Sacred Abyss Splitter, returned to his grip, it suddenly turned transparent, like a torch of rising bluish-violet flame.
"From now on, this world belongs to the Abyss. Come forth, my Abyssal Kings!"At his command, powerful figures began emerging from the abyss.
Each one had a look of elation in their eyes.
Six thousand years—it had finally happened!
"Go. Conquer this world. How much energy you can consume will depend on your own skill."With a wave of his hand, all the Abyssal Kings immediately charged toward the Blood God Legion.
As for the Abyssal Saint Monarch himself, he didn't attack. He merely smiled and walked leisurely toward Leng Yaozhu.
"I hate people who show off in front of me. Beat him up," muttered Xia Yi quietly.
"Copy that. Hehe."A deep voice echoed, and the Saint Monarch suddenly stopped walking. He looked up at the sky.
The heavens split open. Nine colossal dragons, each several thousand meters long, descended from above. Their bodies were crystalline and translucent, and each one exuded the aura of a peak second-rank deity.
"A first-rank god without a divine seat? That divine weapon in his hand would suit Xiao Heizi (Di Tian), Beat him up."
The Mountain Dragon King was the first to speak, then rushed toward the Abyssal Saint Monarch.
"Worm! You seek death!"
The Saint Monarch flew into a rage. Just nine second-rank deities dared to challenge him? Did they think his Heavenly Sacred Abyss Splitter was for show?
"Who are you calling a worm?"
A cold voice rang out from the sky. A massive silver dragon appeared.
"You. You're not even a stable second-rank god. What can you do?"
The Saint Monarch sneered with disdain.
"Not much."
Gu Yue opened her mouth and spat out the divine weapon Heart of the Dragon God, tossing it to the nine Dragon Kings. She said coldly, "If you can't kill him, don't come back to see me."
"Yes, my Lord!"
The nine Dragon Kings were overjoyed. With the Heart of the Dragon God, they no longer feared the Heavenly Sacred Abyss Splitter. Though they were now only peak second-rank gods, in their prime they had surpassed the Saint Monarch. With nine-on-one odds, they had no reason to lose.
"Brothers, beat him up!"
The nine Dragon Kings, energized and armed with the Heart of the Dragon God, howled and charged at the Abyssal Saint Monarch. In an instant, the monarch was engulfed in brilliant lights—even a quasi-god couldn't see what was happening inside.
Gu Yue glanced at the chaotic melee and silently prayed for the Saint Monarch.
These Dragon Kings had lost their bodies for hundreds of thousands of years. Now that they had crystal bodies, they were itching to unleash everything.
It was definitely going to be painful for the Saint Monarch.
Looking down at the other Abyssal Kings, Gu Yue's silver dragon eyes gleamed.
"Minions, start looting!"
With a mischievous laugh, she dove from the sky in her silver dragon form. Two Abyssal Kings couldn't dodge in time and were stomped to death instantly.
Two Abyssal Plane Seeds were snatched up by her claws.
Just as Gu Yue landed, a massive whale emerged from the rift in the sky.
Right after that, a colossal black dragon followed.
"That's Ditian!"
Human experts finally recognized them.
But that wasn't all—Bear Monarch, Myriad Demon King, Zi Ji, and more… one after another, crystalline dragons descended, throwing themselves madly into battle against the abyssal creatures.
They ignored the human soldiers and the ordinary abyssal beasts. Their eyes locked solely onto the Abyssal Kings, each charging straight toward them.
Seeing these soul beasts suddenly appear, everyone was dumbfounded. They had already prepared themselves for death, never expecting a bunch of soul beasts to show up.
"Wait, they're snatching the Abyssal Plane Seeds! We need to get in on this, or we won't even get the scraps!"
While others were still frozen in shock, Leng Yulai was the first to react. She immediately joined the fray.
She too ignored the ordinary abyssal beasts and went straight for an Abyssal King.
She understood these soul beasts were connected to Xia Yi, but when it came to abyssal energy, it had to be fought for—no one could take it all.
This energy would fuel Leng Yaozhu's future God Realm—it couldn't all go to the soul beasts.
"Snatch it!" Leng Yaozhu reacted just as quickly. She could tell the abyssal plane was finished. Now it was a free-for-all between humans and soul beasts: whoever got the energy first, got to keep it.
Leng Yaozhu didn't know where these soul beasts came from, but now wasn't the time to ask.
"You two—we came to save you, and now you… you're acting like bandits…"
Seeing Leng Yulai and Leng Yaozhu fighting her for the seeds, Gu Yue gritted her dragon teeth in frustration. She never expected Leng Yulai to figure her out so quickly.
But Leng Yulai and Leng Yaozhu ignored her completely, continuing to target Abyssal Kings.
Leng Yaozhu slashed down with her sword—cutting the quasi-god Heavenly Bull Emperor in half.
She grabbed the Plane Seed and immediately turned to attack the next target—Demon Empress.
The two sisters understood—this wasn't the time to argue. First, snatch the seeds, then talk.
"We're getting in on this too!"
Guan Yue looked to Chen Xinjie, wanting to pull him in, but Chen Xinjie was currently transferring life force to Long Yeyue. Helpless, Guan Yue dove into the battle alone.
"Use battle armor! Speed it up!"
Gu Yue had no more patience. At her command, dazzling battle armor erupted from the soul beasts, and their auras soared.
Gu Yue herself charged toward the strongest Abyssal King on the second layer—Spirit Emperor.
"We're retreating!"
Spirit Emperor didn't hesitate. His mind was still reeling. These sudden soul beasts had terrified all the Abyssal Kings—they were even more terrifying than the abyssal creatures themselves.
Weren't they supposed to devour the Douluo Plane's energy?
Why had things flipped, and now they were the ones being looted?
In no time, a quarter of the Abyssal Kings had already been slain, their Plane Seeds taken.
Looking at the soul beasts and the two sisters—eyes glowing with greed—Spirit Emperor shivered.
These people and beasts looked at Abyssal Kings like starving beggars staring at a naked goddess.
Those eyes...
Too scary.
These guys were worse than bandits!Spirit Emperor turned and ran without hesitation. He didn't even have the courage to resist.
He swore—no matter what, even if the Saint Monarch held the Heavenly Sacred Abyss Splitter to his throat, he'd never set foot on the Douluo Plane again.
"Wait, who's the invader here? Why does it feel like we're the ones making deliveries?"
Spirit Emperor cried out inside, overwhelmed with grievance.
Six thousand years of hard work—only to end like this? He couldn't accept it.
But Gu Yue gave him no chance. Her Silver Dragon Spear pierced his heart. Then her dragon claw grabbed his head—
Boom!
His head exploded. A glowing Abyssal Plane Seed appeared in her claw.
Boom!
Guan Yue also managed to kill a Super Douluo-level Abyssal King. But the space behind the king cracked open, trying to recall the seed back to the abyss.
Only then did Guan Yue realize—he couldn't stop the seed from returning on his own.
"I got you—no thanks needed."
Passing by, Bear Monarch extended his claw and snatched the seed mid-recall.
While Guan Yue was still in shock, Bear Monarch had already pounced on his next target.
"I…"
Guan Yue nearly coughed up blood in frustration. Gritting his teeth, he cursed, "Bandits! A bunch of bandits!"
"Come to our side—fight with us!"
Leng Yulai's voice rang out. Guan Yue hesitated, then moved to join the sisters.
Better to let them take it than the soul beasts.
