Soul Land 3: Legend Of The Dragon King

Chapter 1761

The objective of Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect wasn't just to oppose the abyssal creatures, but also to seek revenge against the Holy Spirit Cult.

The Spirit Pagoda was merely the accomplice; the Holy Spirit Cult was the true perpetrator. Only by wiping out the Holy Spirit Cult in its entirety could the souls of all of the lives lost during the bombing be truly put at peace.

Currently, it was clear that the abyssal plane was being quite cautious. It was undoubtedly the case that they cherished this opportunity greatly, and even though they knew that Tang Wulin was nearby, the Holy Spirit Cult didn't immediately launch an attack, either.

They were waiting for more powerful abyssal creatures to appear, and the humans were also waiting, waiting for more reinforcements.

Tang Wulin made a few calls in succession to communicate with several parties.

Currently, the Northsea Legion had already reached a nearby region of the sea, and it would still take them about one more day to arrive.

The Eastsea Legion was right behind, and it would take them roughly two more days to get here. The two legions were going to place the coastline in complete lockdown and attack the abyssal army from the sea.

The Sea God Legion was further away in the south, and it had retreated due to the fact that the war against the other two continents had failed to go ahead, so it would take them even longer to arrive, roughly projected to be five more days.

Some of the powerful beings of the Sea God Legion were already on their way here with the Central Legion's forces, but they would still take around three more days to get here.

The Southern Legion, Western Legion, and Northwest Legion were going to take even longer, and that was simply inevitable due to the geographic factors.

All of the military forces on the entire continent had already been mobilized, and an order had been issued to restrict the abyssal army to the northernmost region of the continent at all costs.

The peace lasted for about a day, and right before the Northsea Legion was about to arrive, the abyssal army unleashed its next attack.

In the distance, the entire sky seemed to have turned a dim grey color. Of course, that wasn't the natural color of the sky; it was the result of countless flying abyssal creatures obscuring the heavens like a series of dark clouds.

On the ground below, even more abyssal creatures had appeared, some of which were gargantuan in stature.

A type of abyssal creature that even Tang Wulin had never seen before was leading from the forefront.

These abyssal creatures bore a beetle-like appearance, but they were countless times larger than the average beetle. The diameter of their bodies spanned in excess of 200 meters, and they were supported by 12 thick and long legs. Despite their enormous size, they weren't moving slowly at all.

There were around 30 to 40 of these beetle-like abyssal creatures, atop which stood other living beings, some of which were human. There was no doubt that those humans were powerful beings of the Holy Spirit Cult.

The one standing atop the giant beetle at the very forefront was a woman with an extremely alluring figure, which was encased in a suit of black armor. Only her eyes were visible through her mask, and her powerful aura was causing the air around her to warp and shimmer slightly.

Atop each of the two beetles on either side of her stood a human, and the one on the left was none other than Infernal King Douluo Harosha.

As for the one on the right, that was someone whom everyone from Shrek Academy held intense hatred for.

A series of giant green skulls were revolving around his body, and he had a set of hideous facial features, the centerpieces of which was a pair of glowing green eyes. This was Ghost Emperor of the Holy Spirit Cult, and just like Harosha, he was also a quasigod.

Tang Wulin stood on the mountaintop, appraising the abyssal army in the distance, and he was able to immediately identify the woman at the forefront.

Back in the Battle God Hall, he had encountered this woman before, and according to the Heartless Douluo, she was the ruler of the abyssal plane's ninth level, Black Sovereign!

Only the rulers of the top 10 levels of the abyss were referred to as sovereigns, and all sovereigns were quasigod level beings.

Seeing the Black Sovereign again, Tang Wulin could clearly sense that her aura was far more powerful than in the past. He knew that the Black Sovereign had been unable to display her full power as she had been restricted by the large number of formations in the abyssal passageway, but on this occasion, she was here in her most powerful form.

Not only was she extremely formidable herself, the Black Empress Race that she ruled over was also a force to be reckoned with.

At this moment, he could see some Black Empresses in the abyssal army.

Even though the abyssal army wasn't advancing very quickly, Tang Wulin's heart was filled with dread at the sight of it.

In such a short time, even the Black Sovereign had already emerged from the abyssal passageway. What was going to follow? When was the Holy Lord going to appear?

Tang Wulin knew that there was no one in this world capable of matching the Holy Lord in battle. Even back when he joined forces with Gu Yuena, they were only able to force back a single hand of the Holy Lord. If it weren't for the fact that the Holy Lord was being restricted by the entire plane on that occasion, both of them would've most likely already perished in that battle.

It was clear that the abyssal plane had been plotting this invasion for a long time, and it was impossible to tell how many abyssal rulers had already emerged.

Just as the human race was doing everything in its power to stop the abyssal army, the abyssal army was also trying its best to break through the defensive line before further reinforcements arrived.

There was only one Tang Wulin and only one Golden Dragon Spear; if the abyssal army were allowed to reach further inland, then widespread slaughter was sure to follow.

At this point, the only forces opposing the abyssal army were less 70,000 troops, five Limit Douluos, and the Northsea Legion out at sea.

This wasn't the time to be considering whether they could stop the abyssal enemy; the fact of the matter was that the abyssal army had to be stopped at all costs.

Tang Wulin was standing in front of the secondary tree of life with the four Limit Douluos on either side of him. The soldiers of the Northern Legion and Central Legion were ready, and a battle was on the brink of erupting.

"Tang Wulin!" A rather peculiar voice rang out in the distance. This seemed to be a female voice, but it sounded rather strange, like the voice of someone who wasn't used to speaking this language.

Tang Wulin faltered slightly upon hearing this, but he quickly identified the one who had spoken to be none other than the Black Sovereign.

Even though they were separated by many kilometers, their eyes were still able to meet.

The Black Sovereign's eyes were like a pair of black vortexes that were able to devour one's spirit, and she was appraising Tang Wulin intently.

"Surrender and join us. The Holy Lord has agreed to give you one of the top three levels of the abyss and to make you the most powerful being in the abyss second only to him; you'll even be made the enforcer of the abyss."

Her gaze wandered to the Golden Dragon Spear in Tang Wulin's hand as she spoke, and her eyes were filled with wariness.

She had personally witnessed Tang Wulin permanently killing three abyssal emperors with that Golden Dragon Spear, causing three abyssal levels to collapse and shaking the very foundation of the abyss.

This was the first time that something like this had happened since the formation of the abyssal plane, and that was why the Holy Lord had lashed out to kill Tang Wulin despite the massive price that had to be incurred.

His failure had allowed Tang Wulin to develop into who he was now, and he posed by far the greatest threat to the abyssal plane.

With the Golden Dragon Spear at his disposal, Tang Wulin was the perfect candidate to become the enforcer of the abyss.

The Black Sovereign continued, "Once we devour the Douluo Continent, we'll be able to create a Divine Realm, one that's completely unique. In all of space, our Divine Realm will have more potential to grow rapidly than any other Divine Realm. In the future, our plane's rate of growth will only continue to increase as we devour other planes, and in the end, we're going to devour the entirety of space, making it a part of ourselves. This is the grand vision of the Holy Lord, and if you join us, you'll bear witness to the fruition of this vision alongside all of us."
