Zhang Huanyun spoke in a deep voice, “The S.O.S. signal has already been sent out, but even the reinforcements from the Battle God Hall will need seven days to get here. It won’t be so soon. Moreover, the issue lies in our lack of understanding of the situation here. Even if the men from the Battle God Hall are here, we’ll still continue to consume our energy. It’s also our weakest area.”

Blood One was also frowning deeply for there were too many abyssal creatures down below. No one knew how many abyssal kings would appear in the battle later on. Yet, there was no way they could resolve the problem with the internal seal without exploring the issue further.

The crisis came abruptly that they were simply caught off guard.

“We shall wait and see. No abyssal king has appeared other than the Six-clawed Demon Emperor. We’re going to attempt a reconnoiter of the situation at hand,” said Blood One in a deep voice. Naturally, the reconnoiter task would undoubtedly be his.

Zhang Huanyun nodded. “All of you should rest and recoup. I will call upon you when needed.”

“Yes, sir!” Blood One did not elaborate anymore but withdrew to the periphery and gathered with a few of the Blood Gods from the Blood God Battalion. They sat cross-legged on the ground as they waited quietly.

The Blood God Battalion’s defense drill in the abyssal passage had been worked to perfection over the years. At least, it would be impossible for these abyssal creatures to charge out of this place within a short period of time.

Twenty thousand soldiers of the Blood God Army had already arrived in the areas nearby to substitute their comrades at any moment. The soldiers who were not engaged in the battle were meditating and infusing their soul power slowly into their integrated batteries which were their energy reserves.

The human body’s soul power cultivation could be endless but there was a limit to it. Yet, it was the only viable option for them at present. They had engaged in countless drills in the past to conserve their physical power and soul power before infusing their soul power into the battery such that the battle could be sustained for a longer period.

...

Tang Wulin’s excitement from the victory lingered for a while. He logged out from the Battle Network and the first thought he had was to look for Gu Yuena.

He pushed open the Star Dou Cabin. Just as he was about to get dressed and looked for Blood One to apply for a leave of absence, just so he could visit his lover officially, he heard the unexpected sound of a piercing alarm.

‘What’s the alarm for?’

Tang Wulin was startled. He only reacted to the situation after a few seconds. After all, he had just gone through a great battle.

Was there something wrong with the abyssal passage? Tang Wulin felt astonished. ‘Didn’t the abyssal passage just experience an abyssal tide recently? I was in the internal passage for a reconnoiter, yet I didn’t discover any trace of abyssal creatures. How could this possibly happen?’

However, Tang Wulin was still a soldier despite the uncertainties he felt. He was also the current Blood Nine of the Blood God Battalion, so he felt duty bound.

He changed into his military uniform rapidly and dashed out from his room in the Blood God Battalion. He unleashed his two-word battle armor immediately and flapped the wings on his back to propel his body straight toward the direction of the abyssal passage.

In the distance, he could already hear the deafening booming noises and sense the tremor radiating from the mountains.

As expected, something bad had happened in the abyssal passage. Moreover, judging by the shooting prevalence of the soul weapons, it seemed serious!

He flapped the wings on his back strenuously. The battalion was not located too far away from the abyssal passage. Soon, he could see the magnificent sight of the entire military force surrounding the passage. Huge soul devices were set up in the area surrounding the abyssal passage while Zhang Huanyun was suspended on top of the passage with his hands clasped behind his back. He was observing the situation inside the abyssal passage.

Tang Wulin immediately saw a few of the Blood Gods from the Blood God Battalion, including the former Blood Nine who had been defeated by him earlier, all gathered at a spot near to the passage. They were meditating while sitting cross-legged.

Somewhat sensing Tang Wulin’s arrival, Blood One suddenly raised his head and looked toward Tang Wulin’s direction as he waved his hand at Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin hastily flapped his wings and descended from the sky.

Naturally, many of the Blood God Army’s soldiers saw his arrival. Although the unexpected abyssal tide made the atmosphere exceedingly tense, these soldiers revealed their excitement upon seeing Tang Wulin. action

It was their Blood God Army’s Golden Dragon King! Not to mention, he was also the Double Champion King. Had he just returned from the competition?

Undoubtedly, Tang Wulin’s arrival boosted their morale. They disregarded the title of the Spear King in favor of the Golden Dragon King title which was a much cooler sounding name.

“Senior Blood One, what happened?” asked Tang Wulin to Blood One upon landing next to him.

Cao Dezhi’s expression immediately turned peculiar upon seeing Tang Wulin, mostly due to the excitement.

“I totally didn’t expect the abyssal creatures to provide us the opportunity right at our doorstep. Even though it’s a little early, we’ll do our best to seize it.”

Tang Wulin was baffled upon hearing Blood One’s words for he did not understand what they meant.

“Senior, what do you mean?”

Blood One smiled. “From now on, you shall stay by my side. Do what I ask of you. That Golden Dragon Spear of yours is functioning, right?”

“Of course.” Tang Wulin nodded.

“Great, but wait. Restore your spirit first. I’m sure your consumption was tremendous since the competition has just ended.”

“Yes.” The competition in the Star Dou Battle Network would not truly consume one’s soul power, but it would consume a good amount of one’s spirit, especially in the finals. Tang Wulin’s spirit had been tensed during the entire duration of the competition.

Even though the great battle was still ongoing with a deafening noise, Tang Wulin managed to enter the meditative state soon enough. Quickly, he restored his spirit.

Blood One, on the other hand, raised his head and hummed toward Zhang Huanyun.

Zhang Huanyun turned his head and looked toward Blood One just in time to see Tang Wulin by his side. Later, Zhang Huanyun nodded quietly toward Blood One.

Below them, the abyssal creatures were attacking more intensely. After a momentary turn of events, more abyssal creatures were engaged in the battle.

The majority of the abyssal creatures that appeared, in the beginning, in the beginning were engaged in close combat. They could only use their bodies to withstand the artillery fire of the Blood God Army. A few of the abyssal creatures skilled in long-range attacks appeared soon after.

They began to use their long-range attacks to resist the soul beams and soul ammunitions so they could create more opportunities for the abyssal creatures skilled in close combat.

The Six-clawed Demon Emperor was suspended in midair as it directed the battle in the front. The wings on its back were spread open and flapping gently with a posture which was ready to attack at any moment.

Half an hour had passed since the beginning of the event in the abyssal passage. The black vortex in the depths of the abyssal passage continued to expand. Meanwhile, the airflow generated from the blown up abyssal creatures after being shot by the beams was not absorbed and returned to the depths of abyssal passage and abyssal plane as before. In fact, the airflow was absorbed into the black vortex making it grow larger by the moment.

More abyssal creatures appeared following the enlarged vortex.

If Zhang Huanyun had witnessed the scene, he would most certainly have led the Blood God Army charging into this place to destroy the vortex and stabilize the seal. Due to his misjudgment of the situation, he failed to see the unfolding of the events and chose to remain at his post.

A stream of bright light swept past the sky. Another figure slowly crawled out from the depths of the black vortex. It had eight claws with its body divided into three segments. The largest segment was its spherical head, while its huge mouth had two protruding fangs. The pair of feelers on its head were meters in length and swaying gently.

The weaker abyssal creatures that appeared earlier in the surroundings exploded into mist instantly upon contact with the feelers. The mist was then absorbed through those feelers into its body.
