Chapter 473 We'll fight our way out then; as long as we can get to that place...
This is why Huo Yuhao chose to send Long Yuxue away, and even entered alone without waiting for the others to arrive.
Other Soul Masters are not like him. Even without using his Martial Soul, he can still gain a terrifying combat power boost comparable to that of a top-tier Martial Soul when activating the power of the Golden Dragon King bloodline.
Having others accompany him at such times would only become a burden during his in-depth exploration.
A faint golden light flickered in Huo Yuhao's eyes. Guided by the all-knowing and all-powerful mental detection, he skillfully weaved through the gaps between the abyssal creatures and swiftly flew past a series of intricate crossroads.
In response to Tianmeng's concerns, Huo Yuhao calmly replied, "That's simple. When the time comes, we'll just charge out without any worries."
Although Huo Yuhao deduced that this was most likely an abyssal tide specially prepared for him by the Abyssal Saint King, he was not clear about the Abyssal Saint King's true purpose.
After all, without a god-level physical body prepared in advance, it would be impossible for the opponent to forcibly descend into the Douluo plane by crossing the dimensional barrier.
Even so, Huo Yuhao would not choose to sit idly by and wait for his opponent to finish setting up all his killing moves.
In situations where the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, a surprise attack can often disrupt the enemy's plans and achieve unexpected results.
It was at this moment that the mental probes provided feedback on the astonishing scene at the end of the abyss passage.
Compared to the abyssal vortex that was only ten feet wide when it was first formed, now, as countless abyssal creatures that served as cannon fodder in the outside world continue to die, the abyssal energy after their fall is continuously poured back into it.
The vortex had expanded to a size of thirty feet, almost completely enveloping the previously empty space at the end of the abyss passage.
Before that abyssal vortex stood three abyssal emperors whose auras were clearly different from those of ordinary abyssal creatures.
The Ant King, who was the first to descend from the Abyss into the Douluo Continent and ranked last among the three Abyss Emperors, still obediently prostrated himself on the ground.
Its whiskers twitched slightly, and it asked its two companions in an unusually respectful tone, "Gentlemen, is the time ripe for the Holy Ruler's promise?"
I can sense that this abyssal vortex has reached its limit and can no longer expand. Any further influx of abyssal energy would simply be a waste.
Upon hearing the Ant Queen's words, a strange-looking woman standing to the side slowly turned around.
The woman was covered in a layer of demonic scales that shimmered with dark purple light, and she had a pair of sharp, blade-like bone wings on her back. She was tall and slender, standing at least ten feet tall.
Black Emperor's tone was cold and contemptuous as he replied, "Judging by your impatient manner, do you want to rush out and die?"
Being ridiculed so mercilessly to his face, the Ant King's face turned a somewhat human-like ashen color.
But it just silently scratched at the ground with its claws, not daring to utter a single word in rebuttal.
After all, the person in front of him was no ordinary person; he was the most talented direct descendant of the Black Emperor, the king of the ninth layer of the abyss.
Even if the other party is in a bad mood today and kills it here, given the difference in status, it will have nowhere to cry for justice when it goes down to the underworld.
On the other side, however, was an unusually large lizard, its entire body covered in thick, gray-black scales.
Most peculiarly, its head is disproportionately large, like a freak with extremely disproportionate development.
Its protruding, dark compound eyes emitted a chilling, eerie light. The Abyss Dragon coldly said, "Alright, we're all thinking of the Holy King's great cause. Why fight amongst ourselves over such a trivial matter?"
Before it finished speaking, a sudden burst of blue light emanated from its enormous, protruding compound eye.
A massive amount of spiritual power, equivalent to the Spirit Realm level, swept towards the location where Huo Yuhao was hiding.
"Who on earth is hiding there!"
In an instant, both the Black Emperor and the Ant Emperor entered battle stance.
As the abyssal aura surged intensely from the sweeping spiritual power of the Abyssal Dragon, the abyssal isolation shield worn by Huo Yuhao shattered completely.
The golden light that had been flashing in his eyes stopped, and both his mental detection and his simulated soul skills ceased to function as the laws changed.
Faced with the Abyss Spirit Dragon's extremely violent spiritual power, which carried a powerful shockwave and aimed to turn everything in its path into dust, Huo Yuhao not only did not panic in the slightest, but instead snorted coldly.
The viscous blood and qi within his body surged instantly, and his divine essence spiritual power also swept out.
In an instant, the surrounding space seemed to be enveloped by a crimson-gold sun that rose out of nowhere.
That scorching aura, powerful enough to scorch rivers and boil seas, instantly devoured the abyssal dragon's layer of dark blue spiritual energy in a single glance.
Under such a strong mental backlash, the abyssal dragon was struck as if by lightning.
Its two enormous compound eyes burst into flames, causing it to cover its eyes with its two front paws in pain. It screamed and wailed as it rolled on the ground in agony, crushing many abyssal creatures that had just crawled out of the abyssal vortex.
This sudden turn of events terrified the Black Emperor and the Ant Emperor, who froze in place, too afraid to move.
The number of Abyss Dragons in the Abyss Plane is extremely small, less than fifty.
As a subordinate of the Spirit Emperor of the second layer of the Abyss, their individual strength is extremely formidable.
In a one-on-one fight, the Abyss Dragon is in no way weaker than the Abyss Emperor, who is ranked on the thirtieth floor of the Abyss.
In the blink of an eye, the Abyss Spirit Dragon was completely crushed in its most proficient area of mental power competition. Feeling the terrifying aura of vastness and divine might still surging in the surrounding space, the Black Emperor realized with horror that the mental power of the human in front of him had obviously reached the Divine Origin Realm.
Upon seeing Huo Yuhao's appearance clearly, the Black Emperor exclaimed in shock, as if he had seen a ghost, "It's you! You actually dare to come back?"
Black Emperor never expected that this white-haired youth would appear so brazenly after successfully destroying the ninety-seventh level of the Abyss and enraging the Abyss Saint King.
Even this outbreak of the abyss tide was specifically launched against him.
Isn't he afraid that the Holy Emperor will be enraged and personally descend to crush him to death in this abyss passage?
Huo Yuhao flicked his wrist, and the Golden Dragon Spear appeared in his hand. The tip of the spear gleamed with a cold light, pointing at the Black Emperor in the distance. He said indifferently, "Why can't I come back? Rather, I'm actually very curious."
"You finally managed to descend into the Douluo Continent in your true forms, but instead of wreaking havoc, you're hiding here like cowards, sneaking around suspiciously. What ulterior motive do you have?"
He hadn't forgotten what Long Yuxue had explained to him about the sealing of the abyss passage at the beginning.
Let's leave aside the Ant Emperor, who only possesses the strength of a Title Douluo.
However, the abyssal creature with a face that closely resembled a human woman, and the abyssal spirit dragon that was rolling around on the ground, both of them displayed strength that was clearly equivalent to that of a Super Douluo.
Logically speaking, the seal on the passage should not allow abyssal creatures of this level to descend in their true form across realms.
The fact that this could happen can only mean that some unexpected flaw has occurred in the sealing barrier of the abyss passage.
As Black Emperor felt the icy aura emanating from the Golden Dragon Spear, he felt his body tremble involuntarily.
If you are killed by this white-haired youth, you will not even have a chance to be resurrected.
Thinking of this, Black Emperor's eyes revealed undisguised fear.
Her feet moved backward uncontrollably, taking several steps back as if she wanted to turn around immediately and hide back into the abyss behind her to escape her fate of death.
Just then, the Abyss Dragon, which had been writhing in pain on the ground, suddenly exhaled a mouthful of unusually thick and pungent blue smoke.
The smoke spread extremely quickly, instantly covering the area surrounding the abyss vortex.
Under the cover of this blue mist, all the abyssal creatures around began to undergo strange changes.
Their auras rose at a visible speed, becoming increasingly powerful, and their eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty red light.
The Black Emperor, who had initially cowered and wanted to escape, seemed to transform into a different person after the blue mist entered his body. He let out a sharp roar, turned into a ball of black light radiating demonic energy, and fearlessly charged straight at Huo Yuhao.
As the Ant King forcefully opened and closed its two enormous, serrated pincers, the power unleashed by its massive body caused the abyss passage to shake violently, and it lunged straight up at Huo Yuhao.
The abyssal dragon, the instigator, vanished from the spot after exhaling that puff of blue smoke, its gray-black scales shimmering with a strange luster.
Upon seeing this, Huo Yuhao's gaze narrowed slightly.
When Long Yuxue told him about the creatures of the abyss, she also briefly mentioned the existence of the Abyss Spirit Dragon.
This rare abyssal creature, resembling a lizard, not only possesses exceptionally strong mental power and is extremely adept at stealth and evasion, but is also a natural-born commander of the abyssal battlefield.
What it fears most is the innate skill called Invincible Mist that it just unleashed.
It can forcibly ignite the abyssal energy within other abyssal creatures, causing them to enter a nearly invincible, berserk evolutionary state for almost thirty minutes.
The best strategy the Blood God Legion could come up with in response to this situation was to retreat and defend as much as possible to buy time.
If you can endure for 30 minutes until the buff ends, the abyssal creatures will suffer a severe backlash, and ordinary abyssal creatures may even die on the spot.
Even beings at the level of an Abyss Emperor would completely lose their ability to fight.
However, given the current special circumstances and the urgency of the situation, Huo Yuhao naturally wouldn't consider dragging things out and delaying the process.
Even with the powerful enhancement of the Invincible Mist, the Black Emperor before them was only barely approaching the level of a Limit Douluo, while the Ant Emperor was only just reaching the level of a Super Douluo.
The other abyssal creatures around him, aside from being numerous enough to cause him some headaches, posed no real threat to him.
Moreover, thanks to the Golden Dragon Spear's devouring effect, these ordinary abyssal creatures actually provide him with a continuous stream of stamina.
The immense, unfathomable blood energy, along with Huo Yuhao's transformation into a crimson-gold humanoid dragon, erupted once more with a thunderous roar.
He flashed forward and stomped his right foot hard on the head of the ant queen that was pouncing on him.
With a deafening roar, the ant queen was struck down to the ground as if by a mountain.
The head, under the terrifying force of the recoil, shattered into pieces like a watermelon smashed by a club, killing him instantly.
Using this recoil force, Huo Yuhao, like a golden lightning bolt, took a step and arrived in front of the Black Emperor.
The golden dragon spear in his hand burst forth with a dazzling white-gold light, its tip thrusting straight out.
Even now, with the blessing of the invincible mist, the Black Emperor has lost his original fear.
Yet, the tremor originating from her soul still made her swiftly fold her wings together, like a shield to firmly protect herself.
At the same time, a pitch-black vortex appeared in front of her, carrying an incomparably powerful devouring force, as if it wanted to completely engulf the power unleashed by the Golden Dragon Spear, along with Huo Yuhao himself.
Huo Yuhao subconsciously raised an eyebrow, but did not retract the golden dragon spear he had thrust out.
The powerful blood and qi within his body surged once more, and as the tip of the Golden Dragon Spear spun rapidly forward, a white-gold light with an aura of destruction exploded instantly.
With just one strike, the black vortex was easily extinguished.
Then, without hesitation, it pierced through the Black Queen's bony wings and, with a piercing scream, deeply penetrated her chest.
The immense inertia carried Black Queen's tall body sideways, pinning her firmly to the wall of the abyss passage.
Just as the Black Emperor was struggling violently, a flash of green-gold light once again appeared between Huo Yuhao's eyebrows.
The tendrils of the Tree of Life spread out along the Golden Dragon Spear, probing into the Black Emperor's body and beginning to feast.
A deathly aura of ashen grayness rapidly emerged from the Black Emperor's body, then dissipated into dust and vanished without a trace.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Huo Yuhao pulled out the Golden Dragon Spear again, pointing the tip directly at a seemingly empty area.
The Abyss Dragon, which was still in stealth mode and holding its breath, preparing to launch a sneak attack from behind, was so frightened by this finger strike that it lost its composure.
Having witnessed the Black Emperor and the Ant Emperor's gruesome deaths, the Abyss Dragon was gripped by an overwhelming sense of panic.
In its panic, it immediately deactivated its stealth and raced towards the abyss vortex.
This white-haired youth's strength is terrifying; perhaps only the top Abyss Emperors of the first ten levels of the Abyss can rival him.
At this moment, the Abyss Dragon had only one thought in its mind: to save its life as much as possible and escape back to the safe Abyss Plane.
Instead of staying here and following in the footsteps of the Black Emperor and the Ant Emperor, turning into dust.
Just a little bit more, just a tiny bit more, as long as we can get to that place.
The abyssal dragon swung its limbs desperately, exerting all its strength, and trampled countless ordinary abyssal creatures that blocked its path to death without any regard for anything else.
