The Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon Exposed
Immediately afterwards, the Abyssal Sage King "saw" that its Abyss Boundary Wall, which was formed from countless years of accumulated negative energy and chaotic laws and was so hard that it could withstand ordinary god-level attacks, was hit head-on by the five divine lights and instantly dented and shattered!
Large swathes of the boundary material, appearing as dark red crystals, peeled off and disintegrated, transforming into the most primal, chaotic energy flow, which was then directly annihilated by the terrifying force that surged in afterward!
The entire attacked area was covered with a dense, shocking web of cracks on the boundary wall, which were rapidly spreading in all directions! It seemed as if the entire outer shell of the plane would be completely pierced at any moment!
"Five... God-King level auras?!" The Abyssal Sage King's churning dark energy core suddenly shrank!
It clearly sensed that outside the boundary, five vast and boundless terrifying divine powers, each representing the ultimate form of a fundamental law of the universe, had converged and launched this boundary-breaking attack!
Destruction, Life, Goddess of Kindness, God of Evil, Asura... the Five Great God Kings!
All the supreme rulers of the Douluo God Realm were present, and they launched a ruthless joint attack!
Faced with invading alien gods and a clear dimensional threat, even the Life Goddess, who is known for her compassion and sometimes seems too soft-hearted, now only has a cold determination in her eyes.
The Abyssal Sage King felt a sudden darkness before his eyes—though he had no concept of eyes—and for the first time, an emotion called "despair" surged so clearly into his core, which was composed of evil thoughts.
Five God-Kings?! How are we supposed to fight them?!
What probably caused the Abyssal Sage King even more pain was that the five Douluo God Kings entered through the connection between the Abyssal Plane and the Douluo Plane, since gods cannot leave the Divine Realm.
But the abyss just happened to deliver itself to our doorstep.
······································
The Abyssal Sage King suddenly remembered the Crimson Mother who separated him from the mother body. That plane ruler, who was also keen on devouring and expansion, was only close to the God-King level at her peak!
Now, it is facing five real god-kings!
Without any hesitation!
The Abyssal Sage King's enormous dark body erupted with the most extreme energy fluctuations in history! It didn't even care about the crumbling boundary walls and the impending loss of its essence.
Run! We must run immediately! Escape this location as fast as you can! Escape these killing machines!
It frantically urged the core of the Abyssal Plane, attempting to forcibly reverse the plane's trajectory in the void, initiate the highest level of spatial jump, and even burn part of the plane's origin to provide power, all in an effort to get away from these five evil stars!
However, now that the God Realm Committee has identified its target and mobilized the Five Great God Kings, how could it possibly allow it to escape so easily?
To survive, the Abyssal Plane severed its tail, abandoning the passage connecting it to the Douluo Plane and a large area of territory.
A spatial passage emerged from the Douluo Plane, aiming to link the two planes more tightly and prevent any chance of escape.
The God of Destruction was particularly excited. He had mentioned expanding the Douluo Continent's boundary countless times, but the other four God Kings, including his wife, had always opposed it. This time, the Abyss had delivered itself to their doorstep; how could they let it escape?
Caught firmly in their grasp and unable to escape, the Abyssal Plane, facing the attacks of the five God-Kings, did not hold out for long and quickly...
"Splash!!! Snap!"
Large amounts of red crystals fell off.
The boundary of the Abyssal Plane has been completely breached.
Chapter 312 The Extraterrestrial Demons Exposed
Boom--!!!
It wasn't thunder, but a much deeper, more muffled cracking sound.
The seemingly indestructible dimensional barrier between the Abyssal Plane and the Douluo Plane was instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks and shattered under the combined Judgment God Power containing supreme rules, unleashed by the Five Great God Kings.
The fragments of the boundary wall transformed into pure energy turbulence, overflowing wildly.
Having lost this last barrier, the Abyssal Plane, already severely damaged by the failed invasion and with its internal structure beginning to destabilize, was completely exposed to the gaze of the Douluo God Realm.
"No--!!"
The Abyssal Sage King let out a desperate and unwilling roar, and the crimson energy surging around him attempted a final struggle.
However, he was merely a plane ruler who barely reached the level of Second-Level God by devouring and plundering. In the face of the five god-kings who truly held the fundamental laws of the universe— the Asura God, the God of Destruction, the Life Goddess, the Godess of Kindness, and the Evil God— his resistance was as fragile as a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
A gigantic, blood-red hand, formed from pure killing intent and rules, seemingly capable of judging all the heavens, easily shattered all of the Abyssal Sage King's defenses, firmly imprisoning him in mid-air, unable to move.
The intertwined light of Goddess of Kindness and God of Evil formed a cage, sealing off all his possibilities of escape or self-destruction.
He could only watch helplessly as the Abyssal Plane, which he had painstakingly cultivated and grown by devouring countless weaker planes, was drawn towards the Douluo Plane by an even greater gravitational force after its boundary shattered, slowly and irreversibly collided with it, and then... collapsed!
The unique, dark red continental plate of the Abyssal Plane, filled with the aura of death and devouring, crumbled under the crushing force of the rules; those ferocious abyssal creatures turned to ashes before they could even utter a wail; the life energy and rule fragments accumulated at the Plane Core, plundered from countless worlds, were greedily absorbed and transformed by the Douluo Plane, becoming excellent nourishment for its growth.
"My...my plane...my power..." The Abyssal Sage King's face was contorted, his eyes filled with pain and resentment.
That was the result of his countless years of struggle and the devouring of countless planes!
But now it's vanishing before my eyes, paving the way for someone else's success. This heartache is even greater than being captured physically.
At the heart of this collapsing plane, a figure even smaller, like a mosquito in a storm, was struggling futilely amidst the turbulent energy currents—it was Tang San.
He was brought to this place by an avatar of the Abyssal Sage King, but he never expected to run directly into the final battlefield where the God King was breaking through the Abyssal Plane.
The terrifying energy shock from the plane's collapse, even if it was just the aftershock, was enough to completely tear apart this Titled Douluo whose foundation was damaged.
A sinister and concealed purplish-black divine light quietly probed into the collapsing vortex, precisely engulfing Tang San and instantly pulling him out of the core of the energy storm.
Rakshasa God kept his eyes on Tang San's movements.
···············································
Soon, the Five Great God Kings interrogated the Abyssal Sage King's soul, uncovering the origins of the entire Abyssal Plane and the secrets behind it.
"I see, a plane that relies on constantly devouring other planes to maintain its existence and attempt to evolve." The God of Destruction looked at the Abyssal Sage King, very interested in the Abyssal Plane framework he described.
"Behind it, there is a so-called 'mother'— the Crimson Mother?" The Life Goddess frowned slightly.
Intelligence indicates that a large portion of the resources plundered by the Abyssal Sage King must be handed over to this older and more powerful being in exchange for protection and possible guidance for evolution.
Upon first hearing the name "Crimson Mother," the gods of the Divine Realm, including the five god-kings, all wore slightly solemn expressions.
The entity capable of controlling and creating Abyssal Plane of a Second-Level God must be at least a god-king.
However, when the Abyssal Sage King revealed that the "Crimson Mother's " current power level was approximately at the peak of First-Level God, infinitely close to a god-king, but ultimately she had failed to truly cross that threshold...
Inside the temple, the several god-kings exchanged subtle glances. Even the most serious Asura God's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, nearly losing his composure.
First-Level God?
Even a peak First-Level God is far from enough in front of the Douluo God Realm, which is guarded by Five Great God Kings and possesses a complete Divine Realm central hub and inheritance system.
They were all too aware of the difficulty of advancing to the God-King level; it required unimaginable accumulation, fortuitous opportunities, and a profound understanding of the fundamental rules of the universe.
On a life-bearing planet like Douluo Star, the theoretical limit of its life level and energy is that it can only nurture First-Level God (such as the Sea God or the Angel God).
All five of them were able to ascend the throne because they inherited the legacy and divine status left over from the ancient Dragon God War.
The Asura God stepped forward, his crimson gaze like a sharp sword, looking at the imprisoned Abyssal Sage King, and asked the core question that puzzled him and all the other God Kings: "Then tell me, why did your clone help that Tang San at all costs?"
This question startled the Abyssal Sage King, who was already distraught due to the destruction of the plane, and his face showed an almost bewildered, self-doubting expression.
Yes... why?
His clone infiltrated the Douluo Continent and learned that this plane not only had god-level inheritances (the Sea God and the Angel God), but also a complete Divine Realm with multiple God Kings and a powerful pantheon.
Based on the most basic logic and the instinct of abyssal creatures to seek advantage and avoid harm, the first reaction should be to retreat immediately and escape with the Abyssal Plane!
But what did his clone do?
Not only did it not run away, but it also seemed to be possessed, protecting the mortal named Tang San closely.
Healing his wounds, forcibly enhancing the strength of his companions, and devising various flawed and extremely risky plans—all in an attempt to use Tang San as a "pawn" to create chaos within the Douluo Continent and create an opportunity for the Abyss invasion?
"I... I don't know..." The Abyssal Sage King opened his mouth, but found that he could not give a logical explanation at all.
The will transmitted back by the clone was filled with a twisted obsession and a strange "emphasis" on Tang San, causing it to ignore the most basic risk assessment and act like a moth drawn to a flame.
······································
The Abyssal Sage King was no fool after all. He carefully reviewed the illogical and suicidal actions of his clones.
A chill ran down his spine—he had probably been set up.
The choice of the clone is riddled with logical flaws. It doesn't seem like a judgment that a cunning abyss overlord would make. It seems more like it was hinted at, guided, or even manipulated by some force.
He, the Abyssal Plane, Second-Level God, had unknowingly become a pawn in someone else's hands. Although he was only being directly controlled by an avatar, it still made him feel immense humiliation and fear.
Facing the scrutinizing gazes of the Five Great God Kings, he struggled, Abyssal Sage King recounted all the memories transmitted back after his clone disintegrated:
"Tang San... and his companions, these so-called 'Divine Examiners' you selected... their soul essence seems... not to be native to this world."
"They are a group of extraterrestrial demons from an unknown land." The Abyssal Sage King did not mention anything about rebirth, but only stated that the geniuses who obtained the divine test seemed to be extraterrestrial demons.
When he dropped this bombshell, it was expected that these gods, who took it upon themselves to protect the Douluo Plane and maintain the order of the Divine Realm, would change color in shock, or at least be shocked and questioning.
After all, the intrusion of extraterrestrial souls and their Godhood Inheritance is a serious and disruptive event.
However, the reaction he expected did not occur.
The Five Great God Kings, including the Asura God who was most known for his strict enforcement of the law, remained unusually calm after hearing this.
This reaction completely baffled the Abyssal Sage King.
Little did he know that for the top echelons of the Douluo God Realm, nothing was more significant than the phrase "Dragon God's Revival."
The terrifying shadow of the ancient dragon god's near fall from grace in the divine realm, splitting into the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King, has always loomed over the hearts of these deities who inherited the dragon god's legacy and thus attained the position of god-king.
Their arduous search for a successor was not for the sake of strengthening the Divine Realm, but rather to smoothly hand over power and escape during the potential return of the Dragon God.
With this mindset, what extraterrestrial demons could possibly exist?
As long as it doesn't directly threaten the survival of the Divine Realm or affect their escape plan, these are all "minor issues" that can be temporarily shelved or even... utilized.
Especially the Asura God, when he heard "souls from beyond the realm," a hint of understanding flashed deep in his eyes.
He initially chose Tang San because he valued the unpredictability brought by this soul from another world, as well as the potential within him to align with the Asura's path of slaughter.
Whether Tang San is a native being or not is completely irrelevant!
The Godess of Kindness nodded slightly, quite satisfied that her chosen divine test-taker Arthur, always perfectly executed the tests she set, which, to others, distorted the concepts of good and evil.
The origin of the soul?
That's not important; the key is to find successors who can put her ideals into practice.
Of course, there were also those who were unhappy.
The God of Destruction's expression visibly darkened.
The Abyssal Sage King was somewhat puzzled by the reactions of the five gods, but dared not say anything more.
