When they heard the Jade Devouring Sky Python and Meng Xiong, many people grew solemn. If that were really the case, then the Lord of the Universe would wipe them out.
"Don't worry. That's absolutely impossible." Meng Du spoke with certainty. "Don't forget, eighteen planes are participating in the planar struggle, but the Lord of the Universe has only set up ten passageways. If we don't join forces, then once the people from ten planes pass through, they'll wipe out all the cultivators from the other planes. That would leave eight planes in last place. Would the Lord of the Universe really merge all those planes into other planes?"
"Exactly. That's why it's impossible," Jiu Jie chimed in. After a brief moment of thought, he continued, "If I'm not mistaken, even if people have passed through all the passageways, a few of them will still be left open."
Before anyone could respond, he continued, "Besides, Ling Tian and the others have already left. That means they never intended for all the passageways to close. Or perhaps they reached the same conclusion we did and knew that killing all the God-level Stone People would just make wedding clothes for someone else. So they didn't do it."
"It's also possible they simply aren't strong enough to kill all the God-level Stone People guarding the passageways.
