Chapter 222 Abyss Second, Spirit Emperor_1

Abyssal Plane.

Layer One.

When the Abyssal Sage King's shadowy form returned, he found that several figures had already been waiting for a long time.

It must be said, not all the creatures of the abyssal plane have hideous appearances.

Some of them look quite similar to humans.

For instance, among the figures waiting in the front, there was an abyssal creature that resembled a human girl, except she was covered in black leather clothing and had a pair of black wings on her back.

Next to her was another creature that looked similar to humans, but had much larger eyes.

Beyond them stood a burly man over two and a half meters tall, as well as powerful figures clad in Battle Armor, wielding long spears.

Yet, no matter how powerful they were, when they sensed the coming of the Abyssal Sage King's will, they all showed extreme humility.

"Sage King!"

"Sage King!"

"Sage King!"

They spoke respectfully.

"You've been waiting here for me for a long time, haven't you? I know there must be countless doubts in your minds about my departure. Speak freely with any questions you have."

The Abyssal Sage King approached the many Abyssal Rulers, his gaze dominating as he looked down upon them, and he spoke in a deep tone.

"Sage King, we were just worried about your journey to an unknown realm."

After the Abyssal Sage King finished speaking, the girl with wings and clad in black responded immediately.

But don't underestimate her because of her appearance; within the entire abyssal plane, her power was formidable enough to rank in the top ten, and any abyssal creature that underestimated her is dead.

"Black Emperor, I appreciate your concern," the Abyssal Sage King said with profound meaning after giving Black Emperor a deep glance.

"It is what we ought to do," Black Emperor dared not say more.

She didn't even dare to raise her head to look at the Abyssal Sage King.

This wasn't an act; it was genuine respect and awe.

Before the arrival of the Abyssal Sage King, the abyssal plane was in utter chaos, with the 108 Abyssal Layers waging endless wars against each other.

No one would submit to another; they all wanted to be the master of the abyssal realm.

It all changed with the coming of the Abyssal Sage King. With an overwhelming momentum, he managed to unify all 108 Abyssal Layers in a very short time.

It was, without a doubt, an astonishing feat.

The deed countless mighty ones within the abyss wanted to achieve but had not, this mysterious figure had accomplished.

How could such a powerful being not be worthy of respect?

Seeing the other Abyssal Rulers remain silent after Black Emperor, the Abyssal Sage King pondered for a moment before speaking, "I know what you want to ask. That is a world filled with the breath of life..."

At this point, his eyes filled with nostalgia, as he couldn't help but recall everything he had just experienced in Soul Land.

He couldn't help but admire it in his heart; what a wonderful world it was.

"I believe, if we could devour all of that world's life energy, our abyssal plane might undergo an earth-shattering transformation. Then, all creatures of the abyssal plane will break through the shackles that once bound them."

"What!"

In that moment, all the Abyssal Rulers were momentarily stunned.

Could this be...

They dared not think further.

It was a matter so grand and unattainable to them...

Even someone like the towering Emperor Transformation, who had turned his finger into an earpick to clean his ears, thought he had misheard. How could the Abyssal Sage King even dare to utter such a statement before them?

Abyssal Sage King: "..."

He was somewhat speechless.

Do I, the lord of the abyss, sound like someone who spouts nonsense?

Your doubts are the greatest disrespect to me.

"You didn't mishear, I am saying that if we can devour the life energy of that realm, the abyssal plane will evolve. As for what the plane will gain after evolution, I believe you're all quite clear on that..."

The Abyssal Sage King explained again and, fearing that they wouldn't grasp his words, he even employed Divine Power in his explanation.

"This is true... it's wonderful indeed..."

Finally, the many Abyssal Kings could no longer contain the excitement in their hearts.

"Does that mean we too have the hope of becoming gods!"

"That's great, I have waited tens of thousands of years, and finally, the day has come."

"So it means all waiting is worthwhile. Destiny will not fail us; the day has finally arrived."

"Sage King, give the order, we'll attack that realm right now."

"..."

The Abyssal Rulers were buzzing with conversation, and had the Abyssal Sage King not been present, they might have already charged out.

"Calm down, all of you!"

"That world is not simple, to say the least. Ignoring the rest, the explosion that occurred in Abyssal Layer 97 should be known to you all.

The formidable Divine Power completely pulverized the ruler of Layer 97, the Six-Clawed Demon Emperor, destroying even his origin force, rendering him incapable of resurrection and leading to the collapse of Abyssal Layer 97.

This proves that there are mighty beings in that world, of exceedingly high rank, who have mastered and possess Divine Power."

Suddenly, the words of the Abyssal Sage King were like cold water poured over the heads of the many Abyssal Rulers.

Right, they were so excited they forgot about it.

The person capable of killing the ruler of Abyssal Layer 97, the Six-Clawed Demon Emperor, with such means, could not be weak.

"Sage King, have you ever crossed hands with him?"

"I have encountered him," the Abyssal Sage King nodded and then shook his head, "We did not fight, but his power is not to be underestimated. He possesses not only Divine Power but also soul power that has reached the true level 3 of the Divine Origin Realm."
