What happened?
Di Tian, Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King who was sitting in the Lake of Life, suddenly turned his head to look at the Tongtian crimson pillar of light tens of millions of miles away. He sensed an extremely ominous aura within that pillar of light.
" Di Tian, I'm afraid they're up to no good. Be prepared to wake up the boss!"
A Hell Demon Dragon, three hundred feet in size, flew over rapidly, transforming into a graceful figure. Together with Di Tian, they frowned as they gazed at the blood-red pillar of light in the distant sky.
This beautiful figure was named Zi JI, and was originally thought to be the Abyssal Demon Dragon King, who was also Di Tian's wife.
Is it that serious?
His golden pupils narrowed, and Di Tian's tone was unusually surprised and solemn.
Several months ago, the Silver Dragon King announced that he was going into seclusion to break through his own realm, and Silver Dragon King Di Tian was there to protect him and prevent him from being disturbed.
The Silver Dragon King's strength is crucial to the entire Soul Beast race. This breakthrough will grant him the power of the Dragon God at his peak, a formidable force at the God King Level. There is no room for carelessness.
He would never have left unless he was in dire straits, much less disturb the Silver Dragon King's seclusion.
But his wife's words suggested that the changes in the distance were far more serious than he had imagined.
"I am the Hell Demon Dragon King, and my power attribute is classified as evil. However, in my perception, the aura emanating from there is a thousand times more evil and extreme than my power."
Moreover, it seems that what descended there was not a simple individual, but more likely a powerful and complete plane. This is a plane war, and even with the power of our Soul Beast Clan, we may not be able to resist it.
The moment the octopus head descended, Zi JI's expression became even more solemn, and she even showed a hint of apprehension. Clearly, the opponent's strength had exceeded her limits.
What shocked her even more was that, through the resonance of her own evil power, she vaguely sensed the existence of a powerful plane, which could very well be a plane-level war.
The Soul Beast Clan had experienced interdimensional wars before. The war between the Dragon God and the Divine Realm was a kind of interdimensional war, but the main battlefield was in the Divine Realm, so Douluo Star was not greatly affected.
However, that battle of the gods was extremely fierce, with all the powerful Soul Beast Clan perishing, and only the Silver Dragon King managing to escape back to Douluo Star.
It was that divine war that led to the decline of the entire Soul Beast Clan. Today, the Soul Beast Clan is far weaker than it was back then and simply cannot afford a war of a different plane.
"Gods' War!"
Di Tian was shocked and speechless. He had experienced that divine war back then. Although he did not ascend to the God Divine Realm with the Dragon God, but instead stayed on Douluo Star, he had truly experienced the ferocity of that battle.
If another war of gods were to break out, the Soul Beast Clan would likely be wiped out, and the entire Douluo Star might even be destroyed.
After all, it seems that the main battlefield of this war of gods will likely be on Douluo Star, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
" Di Tian, what's going on there?"
Just then, the space beside Di Tian was torn apart by a pair of sharp claws, and a dark golden giant bear, five hundred feet in size, rushed out. It was none other than Xiong Jun, the Dark Golden Terror Claw Bear King, one of the top experts of the Soul Beast race.
They clearly sensed the anomaly and immediately came to meet with Di Tian.
"Another dimensional invasion has occurred, and it's very likely that it's a dimension no weaker than the Divine Realm!"
Di Tian spoke in a deep voice, briefly explaining the nature of this unusual event to Xiong Jun.
"Gods' War?"
Xiong Jun was equally shocked and exclaimed in shock. Although he had not experienced the era of the God War, he had inherited his father's memories and was well aware of the terror of the God War.
Even the ancient Soul Beast Clan, despite its strength, was nearly wiped out; now it's even more dire.
"I'll go provide support first; you guys make arrangements as soon as possible!"
Xiong Jun was an impatient person. After realizing the seriousness of the problem, he tore through space without saying a word and rushed in, heading to the scene of the incident as fast as possible.
At the same time, faced with the octopus-headed command, the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult froze, looked around, and replied tremblingly, "My Lord, please forgive us, the souls and blood we have collected are only what is before us, nothing else."
"No, you do!"
The evil voice rang out again, and the Holy Spirit Cult leader suddenly screamed in agony as his Soul Power surged wildly out of his body, merging into the crimson pillar of light.
Not only him, but all members of the Holy Spirit Cult were having their Soul Power forcibly extracted, and even their souls and flesh were being extracted.
As the Soul Power, soul, and flesh of the Holy Spirit Cult members merged into it, the crimson pillar of light surged once more, causing the spatial passage above to double in size.
The spatial passage expanded, finally allowing the Abyssal Demon God with the octopus head to squeeze through.
The octopus Divine Body, now in its complete form, was incredibly terrifying. Its shape was very similar to that of an octopus, but it was far more ferocious. Its head alone was tens of thousands of feet long, and its thousands of menacing tentacles were hundreds of thousands of feet long.
At the same time, a viscous liquid flowed from its body surface, dripping onto the ground with a hissing sound, corroding the earth and creating deep pits.
At the same time, this viscous liquid emits a vast abyssal aura, constantly eroding everything around it and causing it to transform and assimilate into the abyss.
"Stronger ants are still more delicious!"
The octopus demon god, having stretched out his form, roared with satisfaction, no longer suffering from the suppression of Douluo Star.
Douluo Star exerts a powerful suppressive force on beings from other dimensions. Even the gods of the Divine Realm are suppressed when they descend. Although the powerful beings of the Abyss Plane are strong, they are also suppressed by Douluo Star.
The only way to avoid this suppressive power is to assimilate Douluo Star into the Abyss Plane, and the fastest way to assimilate it is to devour the living beings of Douluo Star.
They used the souls and flesh of the native inhabitants of Douluo Star as Immolation to achieve assimilation.
This was the primary purpose of those lost souls and Blood Sea; expanding the spatial passage was merely a secondary function.
The stronger a being's cultivation, the more powerful their soul and flesh will be, and the better the effect of Immolation and assimilation will be.
Therefore, the effect produced by the less than 10,000 Holy Spirit Cult experts was equivalent to the initial countless dead souls and Blood Sea.
As for why the members of the Holy Spirit Cult, including the cult leader, were devoured without any resistance, it was naturally due to the abyssal power within them.
Members of the Holy Spirit Cult cultivate using the abyssal power bestowed upon them as their core. With just a thought, their entire power can be forcibly extracted. This is the true purpose behind the effort put into cultivating those powerful members of the Holy Spirit Cult.
Now that the dimensional portal has been opened, these people are no longer of use and must naturally contribute their final value.
The ruthless methods of the Octopus Demon God made Tang Hao, who was hiding in the distance, feel a chill, but he was not surprised.
Seeking help from a tiger is inherently dangerous, but the dangers of the Abyss Plane are far greater than those of a tiger; cooperating with it will certainly not end well.
Those with real strength can be subdued by the other side, but the Holy Spirit Cult clearly doesn't have that qualification.
Therefore, the fate of the Holy Spirit Cult was already predetermined; the only difference was whether it would die sooner or later!
Once he confirmed that the dimensional portal was completely stable, Tang Chen decisively retreated.
The reason he was here earlier was mainly to use his divine power to conceal the Holy Spirit Cult's rituals and prevent them from being detected and disrupted by powerful Soul Beast.
Now that the dimensional portal has been formed and a powerful Abyssal Demon God has descended, there is no need for me to stay any longer.
It's time to move on to the second step of the plan.
"Stupid little bug!"
What Tang Chen didn't see was that the moment after he left, the octopus demon turned its gaze to where he had been standing and murmured mockingly.
Tang Chen and the Holy Spirit Cult since he devoured the soul of the Holy Spirit Cult leader, and the foundation of this ritual was a special divine artifact.
Such a divine artifact is not something just anyone can possess. Clearly, someone in the shadows wants to use them as a tool to kill, and their Abyss Plane is that tool in the other party's hands.
While the other side was scheming and using them, weren't they also scheming and using the other side?
The other party used their Abyss Plane with some kind of being, and they also used the other party to Cause portal, allowing them to descend upon Douluo Star.
Both sides were fully aware of the situation; they were simply getting what they wanted.
As for that human, he was nothing more than a pawn.
"Giant octopus, Douluo Star doesn't welcome you! If you don't get back here, I'll slice you into sashimi!"
At this moment, Xiong Jun tore through space and descended to this place, roaring fiercely and extending his sharp claws, ready for battle.
In the past, he would definitely not have been a match for this behemoth, but ever since he devoured the flesh and blood of the Golden Dragon King, especially two years ago Silver Dragon King the Dragon Tomb and took out a fragment of the bone of the ancient Behemoth king, the Amethyst Behemoth, his strength has skyrocketed.
At this moment, his combat power was in no way inferior to that of Di Tian, whose strength had also increased dramatically, so naturally he was no longer afraid of the Abyssal Demon God in front of him.
Although there is a huge difference in size between the two, their strength is not far apart.
Whether you welcome me or not is not up to you!
The octopus demon god sneered, "Furthermore, I am not some giant octopus, but the Thousand-Handed Demon King."
As he spoke, the Thousand-Armed Octopus Thousand-Handed Demon King unleashed a thousand ferocious tentacles, but they were not attacking Xiong Jun. Instead, they formed a defensive circle, firmly protecting the altar of the Immolation ceremony.
As the first to Vanguard, his main task was not to fight against the local powerhouses of Douluo Star, but to protect the altar and refine the divine artifact as quickly as possible.
Although the dimensional portal has taken shape, it is not indestructible, and that divine artifact is the key to it.
Before the artifact is removed from its refinement and control, the dimensional portal could be destroyed at any time.
In fact, the Thousand-Handed Demon King underestimated the Asura God. The Asura God's main purpose in instructing Tang Chen to open the Abyss Plane passage was to use someone else to do his dirty work and to use the Abyss Plane to destroy the powerful enemy on Douluo Star.
There are simply too many reclusive powerhouses on Douluo Star, and they are all too abnormal. One after another, there appeared that Human Clan's forbidden treasure and that peerless, ferocious Nineleaf Sword Grass, both of whom are insanely powerful.
In particular, that Human Clan taboo almost cleaved the Divine Realm in two with a single axe blow.
Having learned a painful lesson from the last time, the Divine Realm naturally dared not directly intervene in Douluo Star.
The fact that two incredibly powerful individuals have emerged from a mere Douluo Star suggests there must be a great secret behind it.
The Asura God naturally coveted this hidden Divine Realm and would not let any opportunity slip by.
However, he was quite wary of Douluo Star, especially while Wang Hao was still alive, and would never dare to descend there in person. Therefore, he needed to find a powerful enough cannon fodder to scout ahead.
The Abyss Plane, which was connected to the Slaughter City last time, was targeted by the Asura God, who then plotted today's events. He wanted to use the Abyss Plane to deal with Wang Hao, hoping that both sides would suffer heavy losses or perish together, and then he could reap the benefits.
Therefore, the Asura God had long since erased his own mark from that divine artifact, making it an absolutely ownerless artifact. As long as one's cultivation is sufficient, one can quickly refine and control it.
Of course, the reason for such caution was that the Asura God was afraid that the Abyss Plane would also fall, and that Wang Hao would find him through that artifact, so he erased all traces of himself in advance.
