Douluo Continent: A Man of Unparalleled Talent and Heaven-Defying Comprehension

Chapter 258 Future Planning!!! (Please subscribe!!!)

The far north.

Beneath the spatial vortex, eight emperors gathered to protect the area below the vortex.

This will be their main base for the Abyss's invasion of Douluo Continent; it will be their foundation.

The spatial passage between the two planes is now sealed by Su Yu's magic array. Although it's not to the point that the Abyss can't penetrate any further, the proportion of Abyss creatures that can survive to reach Douluo Continent by passing through this seal is simply too astonishing.

With the reincarnation scroll integrated into it, and with this final blessing, less than one in a hundred abyssal creatures could survive under this seal.

Even among the abyssal creatures at the Title Douluo level, most of them would perish.

Even abyssal creatures at the Soul King or Soul Emperor level basically cannot survive.

While the Abyss may seem powerful and teeming with creatures, even the lifespan of a Title Douluo is finite.

Creatures killed directly in the passage by Su Yu can still be resurrected, but they are also consuming the abyss's resources invisibly.

If resurrection were truly possible without limit, that would be utterly absurd.

After all, the process of nurturing and condensing life itself involves consumption.

This resurrection simply consumed some of the useless accumulated energy from the abyss and quickly created a large, existing army that was advantageous to the war effort.

If a creature of the abyss is to be created from nothing, it takes time for it to grow. In this case, it would be much easier to simply revive a creature that has already died.

However, this also involves losses.

The stronger the abyssal creature itself, the more severe the damage will be.

Even for a Title Douluo-level Abyss creature, the cost of resurrection is considerable, and the Abyss wouldn't waste its power for no reason.

In particular, after being resurrected, you have to start all over again.

For the sake of his "long-term" plans for the coming period, the Abyss Saint King sacrificed a portion of his power, merging it into the Douluo Continent to create this area, intending to directly restore the dead abyssal creatures here.

The primal energy of abyssal creatures, whether they died on the battlefield or while navigating spatial tunnels, converges in this area, continuously replenishing the abyssal army with new life force.

That dark, oppressive area was once covered by black abyssal energy, and the originally snow-white earth was now shrouded in aura of darkness. The cold atmosphere had even changed, and it began to exude the aura of the abyss.

Seeing this, Su Yu and the others subtly surrounded the area.

The Snow Empress's expression was cold at this moment, her eyes fixed on this black area. How could she not be angry when the abyss had invaded the purest and most sacred area in the far north?

Gu Yuena Di Tian followed the black area and looked at the abyss vortex in the sky, where a large amount of abyss energy was still emerging.

"My lord, are we really going to let the abyss continue like this? If things go wrong, the losses to Douluo Continent will be significant." Di Tian asked Gu Yuena with his mental power.

Gu Yuena did not answer; her gaze seemed to pierce through the spatial passage, looking into the abyss.

To quickly restore one's strength, the abyss must be devoured.

As for the consequences of going too far?

Gu Yuena felt that the losses to Douluo Continent would not be too great, because they were protected.

Especially now that everything is proceeding according to plan, and the Abyss has already invested so much power into the Douluo Continent, as long as these Abyss Emperors are perfectly devoured, the gains will be considerable.

Of course, we must now prevent the abyss from opening new spatial channels, otherwise, if another such impact occurs, the Douluo Continent will not be able to hold out for the time being.

Because of Su Yu, the Soul Master world has been revitalized. With the resources of this abyss, it is enough to become the driving force for the rapid development of the Soul Master world, but all of this will take time.

Therefore, we must stabilize the current situation in the short term and prevent the abyss from opening new channels.

"The entire Douluo Continent could become the point at which the Abyss descends."

Preventing this seems difficult, but with the involvement of the will of the plane, it seems not so difficult.

Moreover, and most importantly, there is the existence of the divine realm.

The divine realm is their greatest source of confidence in doing this.

Su Yu and Huo Yuhao are still undergoing the God of Life's test. Although it is not a divine test, it is enough to allow them to have the most basic possibility of communication with the God of Life.

In the event of an accident, the divine realm will descend in time, and all losses can be made up for.

It could even be said that none of the Abyss Emperors who have now entered the Douluo Continent can escape. Even if the far north is damaged and the balance of the Douluo Continent is disrupted, it will be enough to make up for the losses.

Su Yu's strategy was correct.

Guaranteed minimum.

With this guaranteed outcome, Douluo Continent is already in an invincible position.

As for the Abyss Saint King seeing the situation was unfavorable and beginning to withdraw his power, choosing to abandon the devouring of the Douluo Continent?

This was indeed the last loophole, but now that Su Yu's life and death runes have been exposed, the abyss will also be caught.

If the conditions weren't unmet, Gu Yuena even suspected that the Abyss Saint King would directly descend to seize Su Yu's two runes, devour them, break through his current bottleneck, and then fight against the God King of the God Realm.

Conflicts are still breaking out on the distant battlefield.

However, the battlefield is shifting, slowly advancing from the edge of the core area inwards.

The Abyss army, having lost the support of the emperors, is retreating, while the Douluo side is advancing on the battlefield, gradually forcing the Abyss army back to the vicinity of the Abyss vortex.

"There are only 120 Battle Armor Masters left."

As his gaze swept over the many Battle Armor Masters in the Battle Armor Corps, Su Yu felt a pang of guilt in his eyes.

However, the losses were less than a hundred, less than half, so this war was a great victory!

The abyss's sudden attack, its swift arrival, and its massive army were all stopped by them; it was all worthwhile.

The development of a plane cannot be separated from sacrifice.

The progress of the Soul Master world requires drawing resources from the outside world, and the Abyss is only the first step. As Soul Masters develop, they need to go beyond Douluo Star, explore step by step, occupy more life-bearing planets in the universe, and become stronger step by step.

Such sacrifices are inevitable.

As the first battle, the war against the Abyss must be fought brilliantly!

Further outwards, the Soul Master Corps also gradually advanced, moving deeper into the far north, subtly surrounding the core circle. A large number of Soul Guidance Cannons and fixed Soul Guidance Cannons have been set up, ready to respond to the next charge of the Abyss Army at any time.

The larger army, still stationed on the outermost edge of the far north, was even further out.

There was no other way; the environment in the far north was too harsh. Even the elite troops selected as much as possible were not all high-level Soul Masters. In fact, half of them were not even Soul Masters. They were only able to reach the outskirts of the far north with the help of the Soul Guidance Devices provided by the army for heating.

Otherwise, they would have frozen to death in the northern regions, let alone fight.

The two sides remained locked in a standoff for a long time.

Su Yu left first, followed by Kong Deming and the others, who also left the deepest part of the abyss vortex.

The Battle Armor Corps had only one hundred and twenty Battle Armor Masters left. Even if they gathered together, they couldn't surround the entire core area. However, as the Snow Empress used her power as the Lord of the Far North, a large number of Soul Masters quickly gathered and surrounded the core area.

At the same time, the army of thousands of undead controlled by Electrox also joined in, working with the Battle Armor Legion to completely surround the core area.

The area where the Battle Armor Division is located is the main thoroughfare leading away from the core area.

Su Yu and the other eight left the spatial vortex and quickly arrived at the Dou Armor Corps' encampment.

The poison burst forth, instantly clearing away the surrounding ice and creating a large open space.

Under Su Yu's control, a large number of Blue Silver Grasses took root and sprouted, subtly exuding vitality.

Xuan Ziwen distributed the numerous prepared equipment from his own storage soul tool to this group of battle armor masters.

Half a day later, a military camp was quickly formed.

In preparation for the influx of new recruits into the battlefield, a large number of vacant positions were reserved in the military camp.

Su Yu and others gathered at the command post.

"The monitoring measures for the entire core area need to be improved as soon as possible. Mingde Hall will meet your needs here as soon as possible and make the best detection soul guide for you. At the same time, it will also transport resources here as soon as possible," Su Yu said.

"Our biggest goal right now is to stop the Abyss army and prevent them from leaving the core of the far north. On that basis, we must prevent the Abyss from opening a second passage."

As he spoke, Su Yu also took out the soul tool he had previously used to detect spatial fluctuations.

"Senior brother, I'm entrusting this to you. Make sure you keep a close watch on the entire far north." Su Yu handed the soul-guided probe to Xuan Ziwen.

The usefulness of this set of soul tools is actually not that great anymore.

After all, the detection range is too small.

The Abyss has now established a passage with Douluo Continent. The next passage is most likely to be established nearby, but this would also make it easier for Douluo Continent to explore. Unless they plan for years or even decades and prepare a massive sacrifice to quickly complete the establishment of the second passage.

In addition, there is another way: to establish a passage through the void that leads directly to the outer region of the far north of Douluo Continent.

It can appear in the Star Dou Great Forest, or possibly in the Sun and Moon Region, or even in the Phoenix Continent, or in any corner of the sea.

This is the most difficult to guard against.

What Su Yu was most worried about was appearing in the depths of the sea.

"The will of the plane can monitor the situation of Douluo Continent and even the other two continents, and guard against the abyss secretly opening a passage. However, even the will of the plane is affected in the depths of the ocean, so it is estimated that there will be errors and omissions."

This is what troubles Su Yu the most.

However, although the depths of the ocean are not under the jurisdiction of Soul Masters, nor are they their concern, there are a vast number of sea soul beasts living there.

On the Douluo Continent, the largest gathering place for soul beasts has never been the Star Dou Great Forest, but the ocean. The sea soul beasts in the deep ocean are far greater than those in the Star Dou Great Forest in terms of variety, quantity, and quality.

Of course, the ocean is too vast.

If we only consider the quantity and density of soul beasts, the Star Dou Great Forest is still superior.

However, in the depths of the ocean, sea spirit beasts can be distributed in groups, and some groups even have several beings of the hundred thousand years level, or even have ferocious beasts guarding them.

Under such a system, the proportion of soul beasts at each level within the clan will far exceed that of soul beasts on the continent.

After all, with the protection of the strong, the survival rate of those at the lower levels of the clan is higher, and it is also more conducive to their growth.

If a clan has a 100,000-year-old soul beast guarding it, then it will often have double-digit numbers of 10,000-year-old soul beasts, including those that are over 50,000 years old.

However, if there are ferocious beasts guarding the area, even if there are two or three hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts or dozens of ten-thousand-year-old beings below them, this is just the norm.

In this situation, if the Abyss establishes its passage deep in the ocean, Su Yu and his companions wouldn't need to worry too much.

At least in the early stages, there's nothing to worry about.

Even if the passage is built on a relatively desolate island, the Abyss will inevitably face layers of powerful sea spirit beast clans if it wants to expand outwards.

"Ultimately, it's unreliable. So we still need to strengthen the power of the Soul Master world. Only when the Soul Master world is strong, and only when its control over Douluo Star is stronger, will the threat from the Abyss be smaller."

Su Yu set the development strategy for the Soul Master world going forward.

The first step is to cultivate strong individuals, that is, to cultivate Battle Armor Masters!

"With only two years left until the next Soul Battle Tournament, we must encourage the emergence of Battle Armor Masters to the greatest extent possible, while also providing maximum subsidies to various advanced academies to cultivate talent."

At the same time, bad habits that have persisted for thousands of years must be abandoned, and every human being on the Douluo Continent, throughout the entire continent, must undergo Soul Master awakening.

This task is no longer within the capabilities of Mingde Hall. A new force can be established specifically to manage Soul Masters. Mingde Hall will focus on researching Soul Tools as much as possible, while this new force will prioritize military strength.

Besides the young geniuses under twenty who might emerge from the Soul Fighting Tournament, Soul Masters in their twenties, thirties, and forties will also get a chance.

"This is the evolution of the entire plane, it's an opportunity. Even if you're already forty, you still have the chance to go further."

Another is the development of soul tools.

There's no rush to bring the other two continents under the Federation's control. Su Yu already has the means to travel to the two continents, so there's no need to rush. He also needs to establish his faith and maximize his influence on the two continents before the Federation takes control.

The goal of vigorously developing soul tools is to venture into space.

"Build a satellite as soon as possible!"

These are all part of the overall development strategy.

As for Su Yu himself, he also has a mission.

"If we want to make the most of this war and strengthen our Soul Master world, it is not enough for just me, Elder Yi, and Gu Yuena to have the means to devour the energy of the abyss."

Devouring the energy of the abyss may be the driving force for a Soul Master to further improve.

If the absorption methods for exotic energy are correct, it will definitely become the greatest opportunity for Soul Masters who are currently stuck in a bottleneck to advance further.

"A technique to completely refine the energy of the abyss," Su Yu pondered, deducing whether such a technique could be created.
