Chapter 388 The Sincerity of the Holy Spirit Cult; How Will Xiao Wu Become a Rabbit in the Future?
Chapter 388 The Sincerity of the Holy Spirit Cult; How Will Xiao Wu Become a Rabbit in the Future?
Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong sighed softly again, a complex look flashing in her eyes.
"If Ling Bing really wasn't Huo Yuhao, then I wouldn't have needed to go to such lengths; I could have just let things take their natural course. Unfortunately, he really is Huo Yuhao."
So, as your best friend, if I don't give you a push from behind, how could you possibly cross that line on your own, given your stubborn nature?
She pondered to herself that what she had just said to Zhu Zhuqing was a mixture of truth and falsehood.
"Don't blame me for being heartless. What other choice do I have in order to survive?"
Even after thousands of years of painstakingly collecting the thoughts of all living beings, I still cannot break through the shackles and elevate my divine status to the level of a god-king.
If I cannot return to the realm of gods, my soul will perish between heaven and earth.
But don't worry, Xiao Wu. Once everything settles down and the story comes to a close, I will naturally return to the Ning Rongrong you remember.
……
At this moment, the Douluo Continent was still bathed in the afternoon sun.
But in the extremely distant universe beyond Douluo Star, a gray ball of light of unknown size is hidden in the void, constantly writhing.
Countless threads extended from that gray core, like tentacles, ignoring the distance in space, and pierced straight into the depths of the endless mountains of Douluo Continent.
These tentacles are constantly pulsating, and each contraction seems to be greedily absorbing something.
Inside that gray ball of light lay a desolate and hopeless place.
Everything is formed from ashes, devoid of any vitality, only eternal solitude and decay.
A handsome man, completely covered in gray crystal battle armor, was strolling across this land made of ash.
The pale, bloodless face, far from being out of place in this despairing world, instead exuded a morbid euphoria.
After an unknown amount of time, the gray world suddenly began to distort.
Countless gray currents surged wildly, eventually coalescing into a gigantic face in the void. A deep voice then resounded, causing the surrounding space to tremble.
"Humans, you are special. Since hundreds of years ago, your Holy Spirit Cult has stopped praying and offering sacrifices to me."
And you could say they are the first humans in thousands of years to enter the core area of the Abyss Plane intact, and even willingly.
Hearing this oppressive voice, Harosa showed no sign of panic.
Instead, he stopped, bowed slightly, and spoke in a calm and elegant tone:
"Revered Lord of the Abyss, without your tacit approval and guidance, how could I, with my mortal body, have crossed so many spatial barriers to arrive here?"
After a pause, Harosa straightened up, his deep eyes fixed on the face in the air, and continued:
"As for the sacrifices you mentioned, our Holy Spirit Church has now welcomed the true Holy Emperor's arrival. With the Holy Emperor's guidance, we naturally no longer need to rely on those sacrificial rituals to obtain the miracle of the abyss's descent, as we did before."
"Ha, the Holy Emperor?"
The Abyss Saint King's tone was neither sad nor happy, as if he was not curious at all about who the Holy Emperor Harossa was talking about was.
"That sounds nice, but you still came after all. What does that mean? It means that your Holy Spirit Cult, and even that Holy Emperor you praised to the heavens, still needs something from me."
Upon hearing this, Harosa remained unperturbed and continued speaking calmly:
"Your Majesty is wise. Although we do have a request of you, I prefer to call it cooperation. After all, our goals are always the same."
For the Abyss Plane to evolve, it needs to devour the vast life energy of the Douluo Plane to achieve the God Realm.
Our Holy Spirit Cult, however, needs to harvest the death energy generated from the deaths of countless beings to build our divine kingdom.
As he spoke, Harosa spread his hands out as if he were drawing up a grand blueprint.
"The Holy Emperor once said that he could help your Abyss Plane open the spatial passage that has been sealed in the Endless Mountains. At that time, the Abyss army can march straight in, and both sides can get what they want. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
"Hahaha……"
As the Abyss Saint King burst into unrestrained laughter, the entire gray world instantly began to shake violently.
Countless gray currents of energy rose wildly, swirling around his face before vanishing into nothingness.
"You really made me laugh. Not long ago, in the universe outside Douluo Star, someone achieved the position of a god."
If I'm not mistaken, that woman should be inheriting the position of the Goddess of Life, as you Douluo people say, right?
Tell me, with a God-King overseeing things now, do you think I would dare to harbor any improper thoughts about the Douluo Continent?
Although the Abyss Saint King had made detailed predictions when he invaded the Douluo plane thousands of years ago.
If the Douluo Plane can be successfully devoured, the Abyss Plane has a very high probability of breaking its shackles and achieving the God Realm in one fell swoop.
If the Douluo Plane can be successfully devoured, the Abyss Plane has a very high probability of breaking its shackles and achieving the God Realm in one fell swoop.
But he never expected that there would be so many variables in this plane that he originally judged to be outside the jurisdiction of any god realm.
The invasion thousands of years ago failed, but who could have imagined that after such a long period of silence, with the God Realm already shattered, many gods would descend upon the Douluo plane again?
Although he knew through his perception of the abyss passage and his communication with the Holy Spirit Cult at the time that most of the so-called gods were seriously injured and their strength was greatly reduced.
Under these circumstances, the Abyss Saint King did indeed have other thoughts.
If we could take this opportunity to devour these weakened deities, it would undoubtedly grant the Abyss Plane even greater power.
But this wait lasted for more than two thousand years.
The Abyss Saint King never expected that there would be a God-King level inheritance in the Douluo plane.
If he hadn't suddenly sensed the Holy Spirit Cult, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, offering sacrifices and serving him, he would have already planned to take the Abyss Plane and run away from this place of trouble.
Harosa was unaffected by the Abyss Saint's angry yet mocking question, and calmly replied, "Since the Saint has also sensed this matter, then we need not beat around the bush any longer."
I believe that with your wisdom and understanding, Your Majesty, you should also understand the reasoning behind this.
Although the Holy Spirit Douluo inherited the position of the Goddess of Life, in the suppressed lower realm, it was extremely difficult for him to restore his strength to the level of a God King.
It could even be said that without the divine power replenished by the divine realm, she was merely a figurehead with a divine position but unable to unleash her full potential.
After a pause, Harosa's lips curled into a meaningful smile.
"If the Holy Lord chooses to retreat at this time, instead of taking advantage of her unstable foothold to devour the Douluo Plane, he will miss the opportunity and choose to escape with the Abyss Plane."
So, when, hundreds of years later, the goddess of life has completely grasped the power of the divine position and even rebuilt the divine realm...
It seems you and your abyssal dimension will still be unable to escape the fate of being wiped out and destroyed. Since death is inevitable anyway, why not take a gamble?
Upon hearing Harosa's words, the gray mist of the entire gray world seemed to pause for a moment.
He was well aware of the deeper meaning hidden in the other person's words.
In order to successfully absorb the massive life energy of the Douluo plane, he went to great lengths and even sacrificed his own essence to forcibly connect the abyss passage to the Douluo plane.
However, while this opened the channel for invasion, it also left a mark of Douluo's dimensional consciousness on the Abyss Plane.
Even if he chooses to make a drastic decision at this moment, forcibly severing the abyss passage and escaping this star field with the abyss plane.
However, once the new Goddess of Life regains her God-King level strength, it will not be difficult to track and locate them in the vast universe by relying on the mark left on the Abyss Plane.
Although he is the Lord of the Abyss, he alone occupies nearly 90% of the Abyss's energy, and in terms of pure energy level, he is not even inferior to a first-level god.
However, he did not obtain a true divine position. Even with a super artifact like the Heavenly Saint Abyss Split Halberd in his hand, he would be utterly powerless against a Life God King whose attributes clearly countered the abyss aura.
Thinking of this, the Abyss Saint King's face darkened slightly, and his voice became increasingly solemn:
"Since you dare to come alone to the core of the abyss to see me, surely your Holy Spirit Cult, and even your so-called Holy Emperor, have a better solution?"
"The principle of nipping danger in the bud is something a wise ruler should understand better than I do."
Harosa raised his head slightly, his dark gray eyes gleaming eerily in the dim world.
"Ha, that's easy for you to say."
The Abyss Saint King snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain: "Even though the Goddess of Life has not yet recovered her God-King strength, she still possesses the abilities of a True God."
Although my 108 Abyss Kings are numerous, they are limited by the Abyss plane, so which one can rival them?
Or is it that the mysterious Holy Emperor behind your Holy Spirit Cult is willing to personally help me resolve this problem?
If the Abyss cannot create a divine realm, then the Abyss King will never be able to break through that shackle and reach the god level. This is the price he must pay as the Abyss Saint King who occupies the vast majority of the Abyss's energy.
In addition, the Abyss Saint King was indeed very curious about who this suddenly appearing Saint Emperor was.
Being able to replace one's original position in the Holy Spirit Cult undoubtedly means that the other party is also a genuine deity.
"You flatter me, Your Majesty. The Holy Emperor's predicament is no less than yours. Due to certain special rules, he is temporarily unable to personally handle these trivial matters."
"But I think that the Holy Lord's goal has never been as simple as devouring the Douluo plane, but rather to create a brand new divine realm belonging to the Abyss based on the real plane."
"If that's the case, how could you, the Holy Ruler who has planned this for thousands of years and is the core controller of the Abyss, not be able to bring your true form to the Douluo Plane?"
After a long silence, the Abyss Saint King slowly spoke: "I am becoming more and more interested in the Saint Emperor behind you."
These secrets about the cosmic devouring of planes and the creation of the divine realm are not things that ordinary gods could know. However, you should also understand that trying to negotiate with a tiger will inevitably lead to self-destruction if you are not careful.
"But the Holy Ruler is now in a situation where there is no way out, isn't he?"
Harosa wasn't worried at all that her words would anger the other party; on the contrary, she seemed completely confident.
Upon hearing this, the Abyss Saint King was first taken aback, and then burst into deafening laughter.
"Human, you are indeed very interesting. I just hope you don't outsmart yourself. Since we've come this far, I might as well tell you."
If I want to descend into the Douluo plane in my true form, I must have a sufficiently powerful and compatible true god body as a vessel so that I can deceive the heavens and avoid the suppression of the plane.
The Blood River God-Slaying Array, capable of creating such a true god's body, was given to your Holy Spirit Cult by me through a miracle over a thousand years ago.
"Since we're talking about cooperation now, you should show me some real sincerity and prove you have the capability."
Harosa bowed slightly and said confidently, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, everything will soon develop as we have predicted."
The perfect vessel to house your true form will soon be ready for you.
The Abyss Saint King was also intrigued by Harosa's confident demeanor and asked curiously:
"It seems your Holy Spirit Cult had this plan in mind all along. Then can you tell me who this person you've chosen is?"
Harosa slowly straightened up, gazing at the gray world, and said, word by word, "Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, Sky-Supporting Douluo Yun Ming."
……
"Oh dear, Zhuqing. Where are you rushing off to in such a panic? I already told Lingbing that we were going to play beach volleyball together."
Xiao Wu, whose wrist was grabbed by Zhu Zhuqing and dragged towards the edge of the beach without explanation, had a face full of confusion.
She had absolutely no idea what her best friend was thinking.
Just now, while Lingbing was applying sunscreen, she even showed a shy smile for the first time ever.
Why did she come back from the bathroom looking like a completely different person, with a terribly gloomy expression?
Originally, Zhu Zhuqing was only pretending to comply, taking away the pile of disgusting sex toys, thinking that she would first keep Cupid in check, and then take advantage of his unpreparedness to escape from Qiankun Wenqing Valley with Xiaowu.
Hearing Xiao Wu's completely clueless words, and even her desire to continue getting close to Huo Yuhao, he immediately felt a surge of anger.
She truly hadn't expected that Xiao Wu, who used to be so loving with her third brother and even willing to sacrifice her life for him, would so quickly show signs of "changing her mind" under the influence of the Sea God's divine status.
If it's just that she's fallen for another man, that's fine, since you can never predict what will happen in matters of the heart.
But this Ling Bing is actually Huo Yuhao!
In this situation, if Xiao Wu is allowed to continue staying with Huo Yuhao in this ambiguous relationship, what if things really escalate and something irreversible happens?
When the truth comes out, how will Xiao Wu continue to act like a rabbit?
After Wu Tongsu, who was still asleep, wakes up, how will she view her biological mother?
Is Xiaowu going to tell Wutong that the stepfather she found for her is actually her ex-husband?
