Xia Ping had just attached himself to one of the Void Monsters, and it sensed nothing at all. Quite a few Void Monsters were gathered together, chatting.
"Brother, what exactly is going on? Why did headquarters suddenly order us back?"
One Void Monster was utterly baffled.
It had originally discovered a low-level hell plane and had been planning to devour it, only for a single order from headquarters to call them all back. It could only give up this hunt.
"No way, you still don't know about this? Something major happened recently. The higher-ups launched an operation to attack a high-level hell plane called Green Lotus Hell. They say that operation summoned a trillion Void Monsters," said one Void Monster. "Everyone thought it was a sure thing, but unexpectedly, the entire force was wiped out. Not a single Void Monster managed to escape back."
"You're kidding, right? Not one came back? Didn't they say we have immortal bodies? Even if demons kill us, our souls can be reborn within the Evil God Altar."
A Void Monster was deeply shocked.
"Say no more. Precisely because of that, it's said those demons have mastered a method that can destroy our souls. They can kill us instantly, preventing our souls from returning to the Evil God Altar for rebirth."
"No way. Without immortal bodies, what advantage do we have against demons?"
Quite a few Void Monsters were somewhat terrified. The reason they could run rampant through hell was their immortal bodies. If those immortal bodies ceased to work, they would undoubtedly suffer a devastating blow.
"That's why headquarters ordered us to return quickly and defend this place, lest something happen to our nest. If the demons discover—or even destroy—the spacetime passage here, our plan of so many years will be completely finished."
"Exactly.
