Chapter 81: The Shengjun is Enraged, Over a Dozen Top-Tier Abyss Monarchs Appear

Deep within that darkness, a massive vertical pupil slowly lit up; it was a blood-red eye, and if one looked closely, one would discover that this eye was composed of countless tiny red eyes gathered together.

When this eye opened, the entire Abyss Plane calmed down accordingly; the collapsing nine layers vanished, and the impact on the surrounding layers became much smaller.

"Shengjun." All the monarchs gathered in the deepest part of the Abyss simultaneously bowed their proud spines, respectfully saluting this blood-red eye.

"A human has appeared who can threaten our existence; you must kill her for me at any cost!"

"The expansion of the Shenyuan Liefeng requires the sacrifice of ten monarchs. For any who volunteer to sacrifice themselves, I guarantee that when they are resurrected in the future, there will be no obstruction, and their plane level will be raised by three tiers."

The words of the Abyss Monarch fell clearly into the ears of every monarch.

The monarchs' eyes turned blood-red with excitement, filled with a bloodthirsty radiance.

Very quickly, ten monarchs were willing to sacrifice themselves; after all, with resurrection guaranteed, what was there to fear?

……

Ten Abyss Monarchs stepped forward without hesitation, their eyes flickering with fanaticism and determination. For them, the Abyss Monarch's promise was no different from a high-stakes gamble, and the wager was their lives and their future.

"For the glory of the Abyss!" the ten monarchs shouted in unison, their voices echoing through the Abyss Plane like thunder.

Their bodies began to burn, and pitch-black energy surged from within them, transforming into streaks of black flame that rapidly spread over their entire bodies. As the energy burned, their bodies gradually disintegrated, turning into pure energy and converging toward the Shenyuan Liefeng.

Under the impact of this massive energy, the Shenyuan Liefeng began to shake violently, and the edges of the rift expanded continuously, as if a giant mouth were slowly opening. Pitch-black energy poured into the rift like a tide, and low, deep roars came from the depths of the rift, as if some terrifying existence were awakening.

……

Sunset Forest, on the battlefield.

Zhexian stood in the void, his white robes whiter than snow, his gaze indifferently watching the direction of the Shenyuan Liefeng. In his hand, he still held the pitch-black bead condensed from Heidi's energy; the bead rotated slowly in his palm, emitting a faint black light.

Qian Daoliu stood behind him, looking at this mysterious man in white with a complex gaze.

He had never seen such a powerful existence; even the Angel God he had once worshipped did not seem to possess such might.

Just as Qian Daoliu was shocked in his heart, a sudden, rapid sound of breaking air came from afar.

Two figures flew over rapidly from the edge of the battlefield; they were Pufferfish Douluo and Snake Spear Douluo.

Snake Spear Douluo had a burly figure, his entire body covered in heavy armor, and he held a massive snake spear in his hand, his aura imposing.

As for Pufferfish Douluo, his figure was fat, and his eyes flickered with a cold, sinister light.

As soon as the two landed, their gazes immediately locked onto Zhexian. Pufferfish Douluo's pupils shrank violently, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

"Why did he come too?"

Pufferfish Douluo and Snake Spear Douluo exchanged a glance.

They had investigated this man in white for a long time but had never discovered any useful information; they only knew his name, Zhexian.

Zhexian saw them and smiled slightly, not saying anything more.

Afterward, he turned and left.

Just like that, several days passed; fewer and fewer Abyssal Creatures appeared, but because several defensive lines had been abandoned, many low-level Abyssal Creatures had already appeared within the public's view.

To increase their reputation, many academies sent teachers to lead students to the front lines of the Sunset Forest.

Responding to the empire's call!

However, their actions could not play much of a role in the face of the overall war situation.

Just like that, several more days passed.

The Abyssal army did not launch any further attacks, which also caused everyone to relax their vigilance.

However, the high-level members of the Spirit Hall were very clear that this was merely the calm before the storm.

Sure enough, just when everyone thought the Abyssal Creatures' offensive had temporarily ceased, a deafening roar suddenly came from the depths of the Sunset Forest.

Immediately following, over a dozen terrifying auras soared into the sky from the Shenyuan Liefeng, instantly shrouding the entire battlefield.

Following them were countless members of the Abyssal army, who surged toward the northern defensive line like a tide.

"Not good!" Qian Daoliu's expression changed abruptly, his gaze fixed tightly on the dozen or so figures approaching from afar.

Every one of those figures exuded a suffocating pressure, and their auras were far stronger than the previous Abyss Monarchs.

Their forms were varied; some were oxen, some were bees, and there were also some Abyssal Creatures that looked very much like humans.

"Limit Douluo... no, there are even Quasi-God and Demigod-level existences!" Golden Crocodile Douluo's voice carried a trace of trembling, clearly also stunned by the scene before him.

Ning Fengzhi's expression also became extremely grave, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in his hand flickering with light: "Can we really stop them?"

Qian Daoliu took a deep breath, his gaze fixed like torches on those dozen or so Abyss Monarchs, his voice low and cold: "Even if I die today, I will drag a few of these creatures down with me!"

Qian Daoliu's gaze was like lightning, locking onto the Abyss Monarch who was slowly walking out. That was an existence with a tall figure, holding a massive scythe; the scythe was wrapped in pitch-black energy, as if it could tear through space. Its eyes were like two burning flames, revealing endless killing intent.

"Fifth-layer Liandi..." Qian Daoliu muttered in a low voice, his tone carrying a trace of gravity. He could feel the near-God Level pressure on the opponent; it was an existence far beyond a Limit Douluo, already approaching the Quasi-God level.

Liandi's gaze swept across the battlefield and finally stopped on Qian Daoliu, the corners of his mouth curling into a cold sneer: "Human, your strength is not bad, but it is a pity... today you are destined to fall here."

Qian Daoliu did not respond, only slowly raising the Holy Sword in his hand; golden light flowed across the blade, the sacred aura forming a sharp contrast with Liandi's dark energy.

"Sect Master Ning, provide full support!" Qian Daoliu said in a deep voice.

Ning Fengzhi nodded, the light of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in his hand flaring brightly, and seven-colored halos spilled toward Qian Daoliu like flowing water. Instantly, Qian Daoliu's aura surged, and his soul power, speed, and defense were all elevated to the extreme.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul True Body—Angel Descent!" Qian Daoliu shouted in a low voice, the phantom of the angel behind him suddenly enlarging, its six wings spreading, and sacred radiance spilled over the earth.

Liandi sneered, the scythe in his hand swinging violently, and a blade of pitch-black energy headed straight for Qian Daoliu. Wherever that energy blade passed, space seemed to be torn apart, emitting a shrill, piercing whistle.

Qian Daoliu's figure flashed suddenly, dodging that energy blade, and then he charged violently toward Liandi. His speed was extremely fast, and he was almost instantly right in front of Liandi.
