Within the palace of the Abyss Plane, all one hundred and eight kings of the abyss were staying here at this moment, waiting for further instructions from the Abyssal Sage King.
The original atmosphere was considered quite harmonious, after all, everything was proceeding according to plan; however, right at this moment, the Abyssal Sage King sitting on the throne suddenly let out a cold snort.
All the abyss kings could not help but focus their gazes on the Abyssal Sage King.
Wisdom Emperor's body trembled abruptly, and he hurriedly turned around to kneel on one knee, asking cautiously.
"Sage King, what has happened?"
A flash of coldness flickered within the Abyssal Sage King's enchanting red eyes, and then he slowly spoke.
"The natives of Douluo Planet have already figured out how to completely kill our people."
His voice was calm, but heard in Wisdom Emperor's ears, it was like a thunderclap exploding.
"What?!"
Wisdom Emperor's pupils shrank abruptly, and his face was filled with disbelief.
"How is this possible... How long has it even been..."
The Abyssal Sage King raised his hand, interrupting his words.
"This seat can sense that the abyss energy returning is less."
The Abyssal Sage King was the plane master of the Abyss Plane, and the slightest change in the Abyss Plane could not escape his perception.
Wisdom Emperor's expression also turned ugly at this moment.
Ling Emperor spoke at this time, his voice carrying a hint of shock.
"The natives of this Douluo Planet are actually this formidable?"
"In such a short time, they actually found a method to prevent our energy from returning?"
The Abyssal Sage King did not speak, only looking coldly down below.
Wisdom Emperor was silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
"It is estimated that they did not find any new method."
His gaze became sharp.
"Instead, they discovered this problem while dealing with us, and then used methods they had already mastered. The means of the Douluo Planet natives should not be underestimated."
Bahuang's huge and fat body moved forward a bit, and a rough voice rang out.
"Then what should we do now?"
A flash of worry crossed his eyes.
"If that group of Douluo natives has mastered this kind of ability, then those fellows under our command will be in danger."
"And they can even fight the Abyssal Evil Scythe..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the top thirty-six layer emperors of the one hundred and eight emperors of the abyss all fell silent.
After all, their strength was basically of the same Rank as the Abyssal Evil Scythe, except that they were the kings of their respective planes, with blessings within their planes.
But as for strength... after all, it was still not enough.
Going out also carried the risk of being killed.
For a time, the entire palace fell into silence, and everyone looked at each other, none daring to speak.
The Abyssal Sage King's gaze swept across all the abyss kings present, and finally landed on Wisdom Emperor.
The meaning of that look was very obvious, letting Wisdom Emperor come up with a method.
The others also cast their gazes at Wisdom Emperor, who was silent for a moment and then slowly spoke.
"Sage King, we cannot stop immediately right now."
"At least stop after opening up another Abyssal Passage."
"If we have no way to open up the Abyssal Passage taking advantage of this time, then it will be difficult to devour Douluo Planet in the future."
After hearing these words, the Abyssal Sage King nodded slightly.
"Mm."
He paused, and then asked.
"How much longer is needed for the other passage?"
Ling Emperor hurriedly spoke to answer at this time.
"Reporting to the Sage King, it can be opened in a few days."
A flash of light flickered in the Abyssal Sage King's crimson-red eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
"Then continue, speed up!"
"You continue to organize the attack."
These words clearly intended to continue sending those cannon fodder out to die; even if they were sent to die, at least they could attract the opponent's attention.
Hearing these words, the group of abyss kings all showed joy on their faces.
"Sage King is wise!"
"Sage King is wise!"
After all, not having to go out to send their heads was naturally the best thing.
Meanwhile, on Douluo Continent, deep within a desolate and uninhabited dense forest.
A disheveled figure was stumbling and running, and it was Xuan Zi.
His right arm was empty and bare; although the wound on the severed arm had stopped bleeding, it still looked shocking.
His face was filled with resentment, and within his turbid old eyes, there was complete anger and unwillingness.
"Bei Bei... That brat Bei Bei..."
Xuan Zi cursed in a low voice through gritted teeth, his voice filled with hatred.
"This old man has paid so much for Shrek Academy... to actually meet with this kind of result..."
As he ran, he panted heavily in large mouthfuls.
After his arm was severed, his Spirit Power dropped directly from Rank 98 to Rank 88, falling a full ten Ranks.
His combat power was already far inferior to before.
More importantly...
A flash of fear flickered in Xuan Zi's eyes; the lifespan he had left was not much anymore.
Wanting to Cultivate from the low 80s Ranks back to the 90s Ranks...
Did he still have that time?
Furthermore, even if he returned to the 90s Ranks, it would still be difficult to reach Rank 98 again, let alone Breakthrough to a Rank 99 Limit Douluo.
"Bei Bei!"
Xuan Zi roared angrily, his voice echoing in the dense forest.
"Had I known earlier, after Elder Mu died, this old man should have just killed you directly! And taken all of Elder Mu's Spirit Bones!"
However, everything was already too late now. Xuan Zi's mood at this moment was quite heavy, especially after losing his entire strength, Xuan Zi found that his traveling speed had also slowed down a lot.
And right at this moment, some matters concerning Mu En suddenly flashed through Xuan Zi's mind.
He stopped abruptly in his steps, a flash of sharp light crossing his turbid old eyes. He suddenly remembered that when Mu En was young, he once had a close friend named Long Xiaoyao. That person's strength was almost on par with Mu En's, except that after some things happened later, the two turned into enemies.
A flash of contemplation crossed Xuan Zi's eyes, but thinking of what had happened nowadays...
Perhaps the two had cleared up their past enmity?
After all, no matter how many wrong things he had done, Mu En had always forgiven him because he was Mu En's grand-nephew.
Perhaps, between Mu En and Long Xiaoyao, they had long reconciled as well. The two were close friends after all.
Xuan Zi's heartbeat began to quicken. If Long Xiaoyao was still alive... then Mu En's dragon core must definitely be in Long Xiaoyao's hands!
Xuan Zi recalled that night when Mu En went out for a trip and said nothing to him; at that time, he still didn't understand what Mu En had gone to do.
Thinking about it now... Mu En must have gone to look for Long Xiaoyao!
A flash of wild joy flickered in Xuan Zi's eyes.
dragon core!
As long as he found Long Xiaoyao and obtained the dragon core... he would be saved!
Xuan Zi's breathing became hurried, and his eyes were filled with greed.
"Long Xiaoyao... Where is Long Xiaoyao..."
Xuan Zi's mind began browsing through information regarding Long Xiaoyao, but he only knew a name and had completely no idea where Long Xiaoyao was.
However... it was already enough. Now that he already knew the dragon core was in Long Xiaoyao's hands, he just needed to find Long Xiaoyao.
"dragon core... This old man must get the dragon core!"
"Bei Bei, you just wait for this old man!"
"When this old man obtains the dragon core and recovers my strength, I will definitely make you wish you were dead!"
His figure quickly disappeared deep within the dense forest.
