Chapter 2503: Origin_1

The Abyssal Emperor sneered upon hearing this, "Gain an understanding of my own strength? What a joke!"

"Even the Sea God has already died by my hand, and now, I am invincible!!"

Once I have completely devoured the Human Plane, my strength will be even greater. By then, not even the Gods of the Divine Realm will be a match for me!

Xu Sheng pursed his lips and said, "Is that so? You're so confident because you've defeated the Sea God?"

The Abyssal Emperor corrected her word by word, "Defeated? No, I slew him. He has perished under my Heaven Saint Crack Abyss halberd. And you, who stand in my way, will be the next!"

With that, he suddenly lashed out, swinging the Divine Artifact at Xu Sheng...

But the latter retreated slightly, nimbly evading with a subtle angle...

Yet the Abyssal Emperor found it was not so simple, "Hmm? My spiritual power should have him completely locked on; why am I unable to predict his evasion trajectory?"

This feeling was as if he had lost his target!

Swinging the Divine Artifact again, it was cleverly dodged just the same...

Xu Sheng asked unhurriedly, "Abyssal Emperor, is this what you call being invincible? It seems to be lacking somewhat!"

Feeling humiliated, the Abyssal Emperor bellowed, "Shut your mouth!!"

It was visible to the naked eye that an intense pressure erupted from his position...

But as soon as he pounced towards his opponent, it dissolved into nothingness, unable to exert any pressure, like a gentle breeze...

"Attacks like this won't work on me!"

Xu Xiaoyan expressed her doubt, "What's wrong with the Abyssal Emperor? He seems to have weakened!"

Yue Zhengyu, however, stated with certainty, "It's not that he has weakened, it's that Teacher Xu is too strong!"

A gleam appeared in Tang Wulin's eyes, "Everyone has experienced how strong the spiritual power of the Abyssal Emperor is. If Teacher Xu can easily evade while being locked on, it means his spiritual power is no less formidable than the former's!"

It appears that his strength might even surpass that of my father!

Gu Yuena's beautiful eyes flickered, "Wulin, do you know anything about Teacher Xu's background?"

Tang Wulin had come into contact with Xu Sheng earlier than himself and might be able to guess his identity!

On hearing this, Tang Wulin shook his head, "Teacher Xu? In truth, I don't know his real identity. However, when I first arrived at East Sea Academy, it seemed like he intentionally made contact!"

Gu Yuena seemed to have touched upon some clues and pressed further, "Intentional contact? Doesn't that mean Teacher Xu knew your true identity from the start?"

After careful consideration, Tang Wulin nodded, "I can't rule out that possibility!"

It was Xu Sheng who first discovered the Golden Dragon King's bloodline!

And he also went out of his way to teach me how to control and use it!

This is entirely beyond what a normal teacher at East Sea Academy could accomplish!

Pausing for a moment, he added, "But don't worry, Gu Yue. Teacher Xu has absolutely no ill intentions towards us!"

He was afraid Gu Yuena might misunderstand Xu Sheng because of this!

Gu Yuena did not say much else, "Mm, I understand!"

After all, when she first entered Shrek Academy, she too was his student!

As for Di Tian and other ferocious beasts that were imprisoned, the moment they saw Xu Sheng's figure, they immediately recognized his identity...

Bi Ji showed a delighted expression, "Di Tian, could he possibly be..."

Di Tian's golden pupils narrowed as he declared confidently, "No mistake, it's that God who can suppress us with just his presence alone!"

The other ferocious beasts were also excited, "That's great, this guy is but a God who could deter us with just his pressure. The Abyssal Emperor is definitely not his match!"

"That's not necessarily true, don't forget, even the Sea God perished at the hands of the Abyssal Emperor!"

"At this point, we can only take it one step at a time. If he's still no match for the Abyssal Emperor, we'll have to risk our lives to ensure our lord escapes!"

At this moment, feeling infuriated by his repeated missed attacks, the Abyssal Emperor ceased his assault...

"Hide, since you love hiding so much, let me seal you in a space crack forever!"

Divine Power erupted, tearing the space around Xu Sheng from thin air, with cracks appearing, threatening to engulf him...

Yet Xu Sheng remained unmoved, chuckling lightly, "Space crack, this kind of thing, I had already mastered it before I even ascended to godhood!"

No sooner had he spoken than he raised his index finger to tap lightly, and those space cracks collapsed in an instant, fading to nothingness...

As if they had never appeared in the first place!

Lifting his eyes to look at the Abyssal Emperor, he said, "Alright, what other capabilities do you have? Use them to your heart's content!"

Finally, the expression in the Abyssal Emperor's eyes changed, "No... it can't be possible. If I'm not mistaken, this guy must also be a Divine King from the Divine Realm, but why is his strength so much greater than the Sea God's?"

Even I have to rely on the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss Halberd to tear space apart, but this guy, he just used a single finger!

Xu Sheng didn't even need to guess to know what was on his mind...

"Surprised at why my strength is greater than the Sea God's? It's simple, because I am truly the Divine Realm's..."

The last few words were not said aloud, but the Abyssal Emperor understood the implied meaning...

He, he was actually the most powerful Divine King in the Divine Realm!

And the greatest adversary blocking my path!

Instantaneously, he abandoned all underestimation of Xu Sheng!

Releasing the godly power within his body to its utmost, he swore to fight earnestly...

On the sidelines, Ye Xinglan frowned and said, "What did Teacher Xu just say? Why couldn't I hear it?"

Xu Xiaoyan narrowed her eyes and said, "I didn't catch it clearly either, it seemed like he was talking about his identity, damn it, just our luck to miss out on the crucial information!"

Yue Zhengyu said earnestly, "What does his identity matter? Regardless of Teacher Xu's identity, I only know that he is my teacher!"

My own vengeance would be settled by Teacher Xu!

Otherwise, I couldn't rest in peace even in death!

It was then that Gu Yuena suddenly remembered something and reminded, "Wait, doesn't Elder Ya'li possess a resurrection soul skill? Maybe she can save Xie Xie!"

This statement brightened everyone's eyes...

Yes, in the battlefield, Ya'li had revived hundreds with her power alone!

She must also be able to resurrect Xie Xie, who had just recently died!

Immediately, they rushed to Ya'li, who had collapsed on the ground, while Xu Sheng was still confronting the Abyssal Emperor...

After conveying their thoughts, what they got in return was a helpless sigh...

"Sorry, children, my soul skill can only resurrect Soul Masters who died within a few minutes, Xie Xie, he..."

Hearing this, the eyes of the people around her dimmed...

Especially Yuanen Yehui, who bowed her head in a way that made it impossible to gauge her expression...

Could even Elder Ya'li not bring Xie Xie back?

This meant she would forever lose that infuriating yet beloved companion...

So what if this battle repelled the Abyssal Emperor?

It still wouldn't bring back the one she loved!

Ya'li felt sympathy and consoled, "Ye Hui, don't despair yet. Although I can't do it, perhaps Elder Xu can!"
