Although he had long been mentally prepared for this, when Guan Xiao confirmed his suspicions, Qiu Tu's expression still turned even grimmer.
Now that the regions of Chaos West Capital and the Wine God Kingdom had both been sealed off, their group was stranded in the middle of nowhere, without even a suitable place to resupply. Their situation had abruptly become dire.
More importantly, when Guan Xiao had sent people to those two gathering points, Qiu Tu had also summoned several God Kings and had them send messages to the divine kingdoms under their control, to see whether they could establish contact.
The result was still no response at all.
That indicated two possibilities.
Either the Destruction Tyrant or the Immortal Heavenly Tomb had, over the years, infiltrated nearly every Path and completely grasped the locations of the divine kingdoms belonging to the God Kings of every Path.
Or they had imposed a large-scale blockade over the western region.
For example, they might have used some special method to seal off the space of the west, preventing Cataclysmic Treasures from connecting worlds across the barrier.
Compared to the first possibility, Qiu Tu tended towards the second.
After all, if the Destruction Tyrant or the Immortal Heavenly Tomb truly knew the locations of every Path's God Kings' divine kingdoms, there would be no need for such schemes. They could simply exploit their information advantage, gather their forces, and crush the God Kings of the other Paths one by one.
