Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 548 Abyss Passage, Broken

A gray wind swept across the land, bringing with it a desolate scene. The whole world seemed gray, as if it were made of countless ashes.

The gray world stretched as far as the eye could see, devoid of stars and the sun, only endless gray. Beyond the gray, an even deeper gray stretched out!

If a living being were to come here, the only thing it would feel is despair.

Endless despair spread into the distance, boundless and limitless.

"I agree." The deep voice seemed to echo throughout the entire dark world.

On the high throne sat a colossal figure, entirely black, resembling a giant human statue. But as he spoke, the entire surrounding space violently distorted.

In the sky, an equally enormous gray figure nodded to him. "Then let's make preparations. This time, nothing can stop us. We must destroy all threats. Once we conquer that world, all our resources will be replenished."

"Enough with the nonsense. That world should have been devoured by us long ago. This plan was approved by the Holy King. Since humanity is willing to help us open the passage, that world is already within our grasp."

"So, we'll enter into a contract with them?"

"Sure! Their goals don't conflict with ours. What they want is to kill all living things. What we want is to devour all the energy in that world. What they want is mostly resentment and the destructive power of destruction. What we want is all the energy. What's wrong with sharing it with them?"

"Those humans are truly insane, actually wanting to reshape their level of gods with destruction as the core and resentment as the foundation. As for us, if we can obtain enough energy, it would be enough to evolve the plane. It's a win-win situation."

"You take charge of the preparations. We'll all nine of us sign the contract together; they won't dare to go back on their word."

"Okay, it's settled then. Let's first completely destroy those despicable humans who have been blocking our way all these years."

"The passage has been connected for so long, it's time to act decisively. If we continue to wait for an opportunity conservatively, who knows how much longer it will take. Although we may suffer losses, we must achieve our goal in one fell swoop. If we succeed, the benefits will exceed the sum of all the small worlds we have devoured before."

……

Several months later.

boom!

"The victor is the Golden Dragon King!" On the Soul Guidance screen, as a mecha was destroyed, the host's voice also came from the screen.

"Dear viewers, the champion of the Mech Competition in this year's Star Battle Network All-Federation Challenge has been decided: the winner is Jin-Long-Wang!"

"He not only won the mecha competition, but also defeated many opponents in the previous Soul Master competition, winning the final victory!" The host's enthusiastic voice came from the Soul Guidance screen.

"Double champion! Double champion! Double champion!"

The deafening shouts were also broadcast through the screen, forcing Nan Fusheng to turn down the television volume.

"It seems the real show is about to begin." Nan Fusheng looked thoughtfully at the scene on the soul guide screen.

Today marks the final battle of the Star Dou Battle Network All-Federation Challenge, a competition that has lasted for months and has finally come to an end. As expected, the victor is Tang Wulin.

This was not unexpected for Nan Fusheng, since neither Fors nor Lufa chose to participate in this conference.

His other agents in the military did participate in the competition, but they were all eliminated in the knockout stage.

"The Abyss should be launching its attack soon, right?"

Through his avatar Elizabeth, a member of the evil soul master, Nan Fusheng was fully aware of the Holy Spirit Cult's plans. The evil soul masters had been secretly setting up their schemes in the abyss passage behind the Blood God Legion's back, and they were almost finished.

Within the next day or two at most, the Holy Spirit Cult will definitely use their methods to help the Abyss King descend from the Abyss Plane, which is exactly what Nan Fusheng wants.

With the Blood God Legion's defenses, it's impossible for the Abyss Plane to successfully invade in one go. Even if the Douluo Plane is driven by instinct, it will subconsciously reject the arrival of some powerful Abyss Kings.

However, those evil spirit masters didn't expect to succeed in one go; all they wanted was to establish formal contact with the Abyss Plane through this operation.

Nan Fusheng, on the other hand, wanted to take this opportunity to learn about the situation in the Abyss Plane so that he could make plans for the future.

"First, plant a nail in the abyss, and then we can better understand their movements." With a thought, Nan Fusheng sent his will to the clone of the Blood God Legion in the western part of the continent.

……

In the western part of the continent, within the Blood God Legion.

"Boom, boom." The heavy snow slid down the snow-capped peaks like a raging torrent, and for a moment, the surrounding mountains were affected by the tremors. Snowflakes fluttered and the cold was biting.

The avalanche occurred because of the deafening cheers.

"Double champion! Double champion! Double champion!"

The moment Nan Fusheng's will descended upon a colonel's body, he heard this deafening cheer.

The cheers spread from a single point to a continuous roar in just a few seconds. Even the avalanches around the mountain could not drown out the excitement of these warriors.

The colonel's avatar, manifested by Nan Fusheng's will, happened to be the same person responsible for guarding and monitoring the abyss passage for any unusual activity today. It's worth noting that this colonel is a member of the Spirit Pagoda.

"The timing is just right." Ignoring the cheers, Nan Fusheng's spiritual power spread out into the depths of the abyss passage. After sensing the situation inside, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Tang Wulin of the Blood God Legion won two championships, the Soul Master Competition and the Mecha Competition, which turned the entire Blood God Legion into a sea of ​​joy, and the soldiers' attention was inevitably diverted.

And those evil spirit masters will not let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip by.

And just as Nan Fusheng had imagined, a black vortex was silently appearing inside the abyss passage, far from the seal.

The wispy black air currents formed this vortex far from the seal's perception, and the area of ​​the vortex was getting bigger and bigger. Inside, there were faint purple lightning flashes.

A massive, jet-black hand slowly emerged from the vortex, followed by a surge of intense abyssal energy, like a geyser erupting!

"Beep beep, beep beep, beep beep, beep beep..." The piercing alarm sounded in every corner of the Blood God Legion at the same time as the cheers of the Blood God Legion.

At this moment, Zhang Huanyun, Xue Yi, and the legion's strongmen were all sitting in front of the screen, watching this major competition, which was definitely a grand event for the Blood God Legion.

The sudden alarm startled everyone. Zhang Huanyun, Xue Yi, and the others quickly disappeared from their location, heading towards the abyss passage.

"boom--"

A deafening roar echoed within the abyss passage, and a colossal figure appeared deep within it.

It was a monster with six sharp claws, a body a hundred meters tall, covered in black keratin, and with dark red, magma-like liquid flowing all over its body.

As it appeared, the black vortex doubled in size, and swarms of four-clawed and six-clawed bats emerged.

The main passage of the abyss is the widest, and in an instant, these abyssal creatures surged outwards like a geyser.

A phantom figure appeared beside the enormous black six-clawed demon emperor, a deep voice resounding in its ear, "Our mission is complete. Now, it's up to you. Slay, destroy. Bring the abyss's aura to the mortal realm."

"Awooo..." The Six-Clawed Demon Emperor roared to the sky, and rings of dark red light burst forth from its body, spreading over the four-clawed and six-clawed bats, causing them to swell in size and their eyes to turn bloodthirsty. They charged outwards madly.

At the exit of the abyss passage, all the soul-guided devices equipped there were activated for automatic firing. Streams of soul-guided rays and soul-guided cannonballs intertwined to form a large net, sniping at the abyssal creatures rushing out from inside.

Under the relentless barrage of soul-guided rays, the bodies of these abyssal creatures shattered, exploding into puffs of air that were then absorbed back into the passage. But even more abyssal creatures surged outwards at an astonishing speed.

At this moment, the Blood God Legion warriors guarding the various branch passages finally realized what was happening, but their heavy weapons were all deployed inside the branch passages and they didn't have time to retrieve them.

"Quickly, get outside first and guard the main passage exit." As orders were given, mechs flashed with light and rushed towards the abyss passage exit. Under the cover of the soul-guided rays at the exit, they quickly withdrew and set up a defensive line at the exit.

The abyssal creatures arrived too suddenly, so suddenly that there was no time to prepare. Almost all the warriors of the Blood God Legion were just overjoyed that Tang Wulin had won the double crown, but the next moment, a great change suddenly occurred.

"Boom—" A mech was grabbed from behind by a six-clawed bat. The bloodthirsty, berserk claws frantically tore at the mech's protective shield, and a dozen four-clawed bats surrounded it.

"Long live the Legion!" A voice filled with grief and indignation echoed from inside the mech. The next moment, the mech detonated its power core, exploding into a fireball that devoured the abyssal creatures surrounding it.

Every member of the Blood God Legion is aware that falling into the hands of abyssal creatures will not end well; they will only become part of their energy.

Therefore, all the mechs of the Blood God Legion are equipped with self-destruct devices, and they will never leave their life energy to the enemy when they cannot defeat them.

One mech after another exploded before they could rush out of the passage exit, but it was their bravery, combined with the blockade of the soul-guided ray defense position, that gave more of their comrades a chance to survive.

The deputy commander of the Ironblood Corps had bloodshot eyes. Watching his comrades die one by one inexplicably in the passage, a fierce fire burned in his heart.

"Hold on! Hold these bastards off! We can't let them get out of the tunnel, no matter what!"

No one knows why the seal, which had remained unbroken for thousands of years by abyssal creatures, was broken, and so many abyssal creatures poured out of the main passage.

Without a doubt, this will be the largest abyssal tide in history, comparable even to the sudden arrival of the abyssal plane more than six thousand years ago.

If the abyss passage cannot be defended, the human world will be plunged into chaos, and countless humans will perish in the great war against the creatures of the abyss.

Although human technology has advanced rapidly compared to six thousand years ago, with mechs and soul-guided weapons far surpassing those of the past, the terror of the abyssal creatures remains a painful memory in history.

We must stop them no matter what!

The soldiers inside, except for those who perished in the explosion, finally all retreated to the passage exit. They did not leave but immediately launched a counterattack, reinforcing the defensive positions at the exit of the main abyss passage.

At this moment, every warrior of the Blood God Legion had only one thought in their mind: to stop these abyssal creatures at all costs, to defeat the powerful enemy at all costs, and to never let them break through the passage.

In this short period of time, more than 400 of the more than 3,000 Blood God Legion warriors who were originally guarding the passage perished while rushing out of the passage. This is almost the total number of warriors who have died in the past hundred years!

This was an extremely heavy price to pay for the Blood God Legion.

Seeing their comrades forced to sacrifice themselves to stop the enemy's advance, the soldiers' eyes turned red. The excitement they had felt because of the double crown had completely turned into anger.

They unleashed their full power in their attacks, blocking the enemy's advance. All that could be seen were wisps of mist transforming into abyssal energy that exploded and was then swallowed back into the abyssal passage.

Human life, once dead, cannot be resurrected. Cultivating a Blood God Warrior is no easy task, but these abyssal creatures, after their death, have their energy recovered, and before long, new abyssal creatures are born.

Despite knowing this, the warriors of the Blood God Legion were helpless; they could only do their utmost to resist.

Although, at this moment, they felt mostly despair.

Six thousand years ago, it took almost all the strongest forces on the continent to drive the abyssal creatures back, but this had already caused heavy losses to the major powers at the time.

At this moment, they only have tens of thousands of soldiers from the Blood God Legion. Can they hold the main passage where abyssal creatures have suddenly appeared?

Nobody knows, but nobody fails to give it their all.

Joy turns to sorrow, and life is full of ups and downs.
